and warranties which materially and adversely affects the

under this Agreement or otherwise materially and adversely
affects the value of the Mortgage Loans, the Mortgaged

Within 60 days of the earlier of either discovery by
or notice to the Servicer of any breach of a representation or
warranty set forth in Subsection 7.02 which materially and
adversely affects the ability of the Servicer to perform its
duties and obligations under this Agreement or otherwise
materially and adversely affects the value of the Loans, the
Mortgaged Property or the priority of the security interest on

efforts promptly to cure such breach in all material respects

warranties made in Subsection 7.02 shall accrue upon (i)
discovery of such breach by the Servicer or notice thereof by

by the Servicer to cure such breach within the applicable cure
period, and (iii) demand upon the Servicer by the Trustee or
the Master Servicer for compliance with this Agreement.

Servicer may waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage
Loan or consent to the postponement of any such term or in any
manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor if in the Servicer's
reasonable and prudent determination such waiver,
modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially
adverse to the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust,
provided, however, that unless the Mortgagor is in default
with respect to the Mortgage Loan or such default is, in the
judgment of the Servicer, imminent, the Servicer shall not
permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that
would change the Mortgage Interest Rate, forgive the payment
of principal or interest, reduce or increase the outstanding
principal balance (except for actual payments of principal) or
change the final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan.
(ii) by adding the following to the end of the fifth paragraph
of such subsection:
Promptly after the execution of any assumption, modification,
consolidation or extension of any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer
shall forward to the Master Servicer copies of any documents
evidencing such assumption, modification, consolidation or
extension. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Agreement, the Servicer shall not make or permit any
modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage
Loan that would cause any REMIC created under the Trust
Agreement to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the
imposition of any tax under Section 860F(a) or Section 860G(d)
of the Code.
26. Subsection 11.03 (Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments) is hereby

(i) the amount of any Prepayment Interest
Shortfall Amount paid out of the Servicer's
own funds without any right to reimbursement
therefor;
28. Subsection 11.05 (Withdrawals From the Custodial Account) is hereby
amended as follows:
(a) by replacing the last five lines of clause (c) with the
following:
(c) Servicer's right thereto shall be prior to

however, that in the event that the Servicer
determines in good faith that any
unreimbursed Monthly Advances will not be
recoverable from amounts representing late
recoveries of payments of principal or
interest respecting the particular Mortgage
Loan as to which such Monthly Advance was
made or from Liquidation Proceeds or
Insurance Proceeds with respect to such
Mortgage Loan, the Servicer may reimburse
itself for such amounts from the Custodial
Account, it being understood, in the case of
any such reimbursement, that the Servicer's
right thereto shall be prior to the rights
of the Trust Fund;
A-7

various Mortgagors" in the fourth and fifth lines of the first
paragraph, and replacing them with the following words:
"Bank of America, N.A., in trust for the SARM 2004-14
Trust Fund";
30. Subsection 11.13 (Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property) is
hereby amended (i) by adding two new paragraphs after the second
paragraph thereof to read as follows:
In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any REO Property in
connection with a default or imminent default on a Mortgage
Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property not
later than the end of the third taxable year after the year of
its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Servicer has
applied for and received a grant of extension from the
Internal Revenue Service to the effect that, under the REMIC
Provisions and any relevant proposed legislation and under
applicable state law, the applicable Trust REMIC may hold REO
Property for a longer period without adversely affecting the
REMIC status of such REMIC or causing the imposition of a
federal or state tax upon such REMIC. If the Servicer has
received such an extension, then the Servicer shall continue
to attempt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value
for such period longer than three years as such extension
permits (the "Extended Period"). If the Servicer has not
received such an extension and the Servicer is unable to sell
the REO Property within the period ending 3 months before the
end of such third taxable year after its acquisition by the
Trust Fund or if the Servicer has received such an extension,
and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the
period ending three months before the close of the Extended
Period, the Servicer shall, before the end of the three year
period or the Extended Period, as applicable, (i) purchase
such REO Property at a price equal to the REO Property's fair
market value or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest
bidder (which may be the Servicer) in an auction reasonably
designed to produce a fair price prior to the expiration of
the three-year period or the Extended Period, as the case may
be. The Trustee shall sign any document or take any other
action reasonably requested by the Servicer which would enable
the Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, to request such
grant of extension.
A-8
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no REO
Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or
allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on
behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or pursuant to any
terms that would: (i) cause such REO Property to fail to
qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code; or (ii) subject any Trust
REMIC to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the
income earned from such REO Property, including any taxes
imposed by reason of Sections 860F or 860G(c) of the Code,
unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless
the Trust Fund with respect to the imposition of any such
taxes;
(ii) by replacing the word "advances" in the eighth line of
the existing third paragraph thereof with "Monthly Advances";
and
(iii) by adding the following to the end of such Subsection:
Prior to acceptance by the Servicer of an offer to sell any
REO Property, the Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer of
such offer in writing which notification shall set forth all
material terms of said offer (each a "Notice of Sale"). The
Master Servicer shall be deemed to have approved the sale of
any REO Property unless the Master Servicer notifies the
Servicer in writing, within five (5) days after its receipt of
the related Notice of Sale, that it disapproves of the related
sale, in which case the Servicer shall not proceed with such
sale.
31. Subsection 11.15 (Distributions) is hereby amended by adding the
following after the second paragraph of such Subsection:
All remittances required to be made to the Master
Servicer shall be made to the following wire account or to

Servicer has serviced some or all of the Mortgage Loans
hereunder as such returns, information statements or other
filings are required to be delivered to any governmental
taxing authority or to the Master Servicer pursuant to any
applicable law with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the
transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, the Servicer
shall provide the Master Servicer with such information
concerning the Mortgage Loans as is necessary for the Master
Servicer to prepare the Trust Fund's federal income tax return
as the Master Servicer may reasonably request from time to
time.
33. Subsection 11.20 (Annual Statement as to Compliance) is hereby amended
and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

preceding fiscal year and of performance under this Agreement
has been made under such officers' supervision, and (ii) to
the best of such officers' knowledge, based on such review,
the Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this
Agreement for such year, or, if there has been a default in
the fulfillment of all such obligations, specifying each such
default known to such officer and the nature and status

with the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage
Bankers except for such exceptions that, in the opinion of
such firm, the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage
Bankers requires it to report, in which case such exceptions

A-10
35. A new Subsection 11.27 (SEC Certificate) is hereby added to read as
follows:
Subsection 11.27 SEC Certificate.
By March 15 of each year, an officer of the Servicer
shall execute and deliver an Officer's Certificate
substantially in the form of Exhibit F attached hereto, signed
by an officer of the Servicer, to the Master Servicer and
Depositor for the benefit of the Master Servicer, the
Depositor and their respective officers, directors and
affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that

to the related securitization transaction for the prior
calendar year, then (i) the Depositor shall notify the
Servicer of that fact, and (ii) the Servicer shall not be

36. Subsection 12.01 (Indemnification; Third Party Claims) is hereby
amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
The Servicer shall indemnify Xxxxxx Brothers
Holdings, the Trust Fund, the Trustee and the Master Servicer

necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any
other costs, fees and expenses that any of such parties may
sustain in any way related to the failure of the Servicer to

Servicer and the Trustee or any other relevant party if a
claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement
or the Mortgage Loans, assume (with the prior written consent
of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) the defense of any such
claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including
counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any
judgment or decree which may be entered against it or any of
such parties in respect of such claim. The Servicer shall

incurred by the Servicer pursuant to this Subsection 12.01,
and the Trustee from the assets of the Trust Fund promptly
shall reimburse the Servicer for all amounts advanced by it
pursuant to the preceding sentence except when the claim is in
any way related to the failure of the Servicer to service and
administer the Mortgage Loans in compliance with the terms of
this Agreement or the gross negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct of this Servicer.
37. Subsection 12.04 (Seller and Servicer Not to Resign) is hereby amended
and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
Subsection 12.04 Limitation on Resignation and Assignment by
Servicer
A-11
The Servicer shall neither assign this Agreement or
the servicing hereunder or delegate its rights or duties
hereunder or any portion hereof (to other than a third party
in the case of outsourcing routine tasks such as taxes,
insurance and property inspection, in which case the Servicer
shall be fully liable for such tasks as if the Servicer
performed them itself) or sell or otherwise dispose of all or
substantially all of its property or assets without the prior
written consent of the Trustee and the Master Servicer, which
consent shall be granted or withheld in the reasonable
discretion of such parties, provided, however, that the
Servicer may assign its rights and obligations hereunder
without prior written consent of the Trustee and the Master
Servicer to any entity that is directly owned or controlled by
the Servicer, and the Servicer guarantees the performance of
such entity hereunder. In the event of such assignment by the
Servicer, the Servicer shall provide the Trustee and the
Master Servicer with a written statement guaranteeing the
successor entity's performance of the Servicer's obligations
under the Agreement.
38. Subsection 13.01 (Events of Default) is hereby amended by:
(a) changing any reference to "Purchaser" to "Master Servicer"
(b) adding the words "within the applicable cure period" after
the word "remedied" in the second line of the second

(c) amending subclause (g) as follows: "the Servicer at any
time is neither a Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac approved
servicer, and the Master Servicer has not terminated the
rights and obligations of the Servicer under this
Agreement and replaced the Servicer with a Xxxxxx Mae or
Xxxxxxx Mac approved servicer within 30 days of the
absence of such approval;".
39. Subsection 13.02 (Waiver of Default) is hereby amended by changing the
reference to "Purchaser" in such Subsection to "Master Servicer with
the prior written consent of the Trustee".
40. Subsection 14.01 (Termination) is hereby amended by changing the word
"Purchaser" to "Xxxxxx Brothers Holdings."
41. Subsection 14.02 (Termination of the Servicer Without Cause) is hereby
amended by replacing the first reference to "Purchaser" with "Xxxxxx
Brothers Holdings (with the prior consent of the Trustee)" and by
replacing all other references to "Purchaser" with "Xxxxxx Brothers
Holdings."
42. Subsection 14.03 (Successors to the Servicer) is hereby amended in its
entirety to read as follows:
Simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer's
responsibilities and duties under this Agreement pursuant to
Subsections 12.04, 13.01, 14.01 or 14.02, the Master Servicer
shall, in accordance with the provisions of the Trust
Agreement (i) succeed to and assume all of the Servicer's
responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations under this
Agreement, or (ii) appoint a successor meeting the eligibility
requirements of this Agreement, and which shall succeed to all
rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and
liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement with the
termination of the Servicer's responsibilities, duties and
liabilities under this Agreement. Any successor to the
Servicer that is not at that time a Servicer of other mortgage
loans for the Trust Fund shall be subject to the approval of
the Master Servicer, Xxxxxx Brothers Holdings, the Trustee and
each Rating Agency (as such term is defined in the Trust
Agreement). Unless the successor servicer is at that time a
servicer of other mortgage loans for the Trust Fund, each
Rating Agency must deliver to the Trustee a letter to the
effect that such transfer of servicing will not result in a
qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current
rating of any of the Certificates. In connection with such
appointment and assumption, the Master Servicer or Xxxxxx
A-12
Brothers Holdings, as applicable, may make such arrangements
for the compensation of such successor out of payments on the
Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided,
however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that
permitted the Servicer under this Agreement. In the event that
the Servicer's duties, responsibilities and liabilities under
this Agreement should be terminated pursuant to the
aforementioned Subsections, the Servicer shall discharge such
duties and responsibilities during the period from the date it
acquires knowledge of such termination until the effective
date thereof with the same degree of diligence and prudence
which it is obligated to exercise under this Agreement, and
shall take no action whatsoever that might impair or prejudice
the rights or financial condition of its successor. The
resignation or removal of the Servicer pursuant to the
aforementioned Subsections shall not become effective until a
successor shall be appointed pursuant to this Subsection 14.03
and shall in no event relieve the Servicer of the
representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 7 and
the remedies available to the Trust Fund under Subsection 7.03
shall be applicable to the Servicer notwithstanding any such
resignation or termination of the Servicer, or the termination
of this Agreement.
Within a reasonable period of time, but in no event
longer than 30 days of the appointment of a successor entity,
the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the
successor entity any and all documents and other instruments,
place in such successor's possession all Servicing Files, and
do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or
appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of
termination. The Servicer shall cooperate with the Trustee and
the Master Servicer, as applicable, and such successor in
effecting the termination of the Servicer's responsibilities
and rights hereunder and the transfer of servicing
responsibilities to the successor Servicer, including without
limitation, the transfer to such successor for administration
by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited
by the Servicer to the Custodial Account or any Escrow Account
or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
Any successor appointed as provided herein shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Trustee, the Servicer
and the Master Servicer an instrument (i) accepting such
appointment, wherein the successor shall make an assumption of
the due and punctual performance and observance of each
covenant and condition to be performed and observed by the
Servicer under this Agreement, whereupon such successor shall
become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties,
responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Servicer,
with like effect as if originally named as a party to this
Agreement. Any termination or resignation of the Servicer or
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Subsections 12.04,
13.01, 14.01 or 14.02 shall not affect any claims that the
Master Servicer or the Trustee may have against the Servicer
arising out of the Servicer's actions or failure to act prior
to any such termination or resignation.
The Servicer shall deliver within three (3) Business
Days of the appointment of a successor Servicer the funds in
the Account and Escrow Account and all Collateral Files,
Credit Files and related documents and statements held by it
hereunder to the successor Servicer and the Servicer shall
account for all funds and shall execute and deliver such
instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be
required to more fully and definitively vest in the successor
all such rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations
and liabilities of the Servicer.
Upon a successor's acceptance of appointment as such,
the Servicer shall notify the Trustee and Master Servicer of
such appointment in accordance with the notice procedures set
forth herein.
A-13
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with any
transfer of servicing hereunder (whether as a result of
termination or removal of the Servicer or resignation of the
Servicer or otherwise), including, without limitation, the
costs and expenses of the Master Servicer or any other Person
in appointing a successor servicer, or of the Master Servicer
in assuming the responsibilities of the Servicer hereunder, or
of transferring the Servicing Files and the other necessary
data to the successor servicer shall be paid by the
terminated, removed or resigning Servicer from its own funds
without reimbursement.
43. The parties acknowledge that Section 22 shall be inapplicable to this
Agreement.
44. Section 25 (Amendment) is hereby amended by replacing the words "by the
Purchaser, the Seller and the Servicer by written agreement signed by
the parties hereto" with the words "by written agreement by the
Servicer and Xxxxxx Brothers Holdings, with the written consent of the
Master Servicer and the Trustee".
45. Section 29 (Successors and Assigns) is hereby deleted in its entirety.
46. Section 30 (Non-Solicitation) is hereby amended by replacing the words
"the Purchaser" with "Xxxxxx Brothers Holdings" in each instance.
47. A new Section 32 (Intended Third Party Beneficiaries) is hereby added
below Section 31 to read as follows:
Intended Third Party Beneficiaries. Notwithstanding any
provision herein to the contrary, the parties to this
Agreement agree that it is appropriate, in furtherance of the
intent of such parties as set forth herein, that the Master
Servicer and the Trustee receive the benefit of the provisions
of this Agreement as intended third party beneficiaries of
this Agreement to the extent of such provisions. The Servicer
shall have the same obligations to the Master Servicer and the
Trustee as if they were parties to this Agreement, and the
Master Servicer and the Trustee shall have the same rights and
remedies to enforce the provisions of this Agreement as if
they were parties to this Agreement. The Servicer shall only
take direction from the Master Servicer (if direction by the
Master Servicer is required under this Agreement) unless
otherwise directed by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, all rights and obligations of the Master Servicer
and the Trustee hereunder (other than the right to
indemnification) shall terminate upon termination of the Trust
Agreement and of the Trust Fund pursuant to the Trust
Agreement.
