shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee written notice stating
that such Mortgage, Assignments of Mortgage, or assumption, consolidation or

shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee such Mortgage, Assignments

may be, with evidence of recording indicated thereon upon receipt thereof from
the public recording office.
With respect to any Non-MERS Mortgage Loans which are not Co-op Loans,
and as to which the related Mortgaged Property is located in Florida, the
Servicer shall cause to be recorded in the appropriate public recording office
for real property records each Assignment of Mortgage referred to in this
Section 2.01 as soon as practicable. With respect to any Non-MERS Mortgage Loans
which are not Co-op Loans as to which the related Mortgaged Property is located
outside of Florida, the Servicer shall not be obligated to cause to be recorded
the Assignment of Mortgage referred to in this Section 2.01. With respect to
Co-op Loans as to which the related dwelling unit is located in Florida, the
Servicer shall cause to be filed in the appropriate filing office the Form UCC-3

to in this Section 2.01. While each such Assignment of Mortgage or Form UCC-3 is
being recorded or filed, as applicable, the Servicer shall deliver to the
Trustee a photocopy of such document. If any such Assignment of Mortgage or Form

therein, the Servicer shall cause such defect to be cured and such document to

days of the Closing Date or shall deliver to the Trustee on or before such date
an Officer's Certificate stating that such document has been delivered to the
appropriate public recording or filing office for recording or filing, but has
not been returned solely because of a delay caused by such recording or filing
office. In any event, the Depositor shall use all reasonable efforts to cause
each such document with evidence of recording or filing thereon to be delivered
to the Trustee within 300 days of the Closing Date.
39
With respect to each MERS Mortgage Loan, the Trustee, at the expense of
the Depositor and at the direction and with the cooperation of the Servicer,
shall cause to be taken such actions as are necessary to cause the Trustee to be
clearly identified as the owner of each such Mortgage Loan on the records of
MERS for purposes of the system of recording transfers of beneficial ownership
of mortgages maintained by MERS.
The ownership of each Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and the contents of
the related Mortgage File is vested in the Trustee. Neither the Depositor nor
the Servicer shall take any action inconsistent with such ownership and shall
not claim any ownership interest therein. The Depositor and the Servicer shall
respond to any third party inquiries with respect to ownership of the Mortgage
Loans by stating that such ownership is held by the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders. Mortgage documents relating to the Mortgage Loans not
delivered to the Trustee are and shall be held in trust by the Servicer or any
Sub-Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee as the owner thereof, and the
Servicer's or such Sub-Servicer's possession of the contents of each Mortgage
File so retained is for the sole purpose of servicing the related Mortgage Loan,
and such retention and possession by the Servicer or such Sub-Servicer is in a
custodial capacity only. The Depositor agrees to take no action inconsistent
with the Trustee's ownership of the Mortgage Loans, to promptly indicate to all
inquiring parties that the Mortgage Loans have been sold and to claim no
ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans. Each Mortgage File and the mortgage
documents relating to the Mortgage Loans contain proprietary business
information of the Servicer and its customers. The Trustee and the Depositor
agree that they will not use such information for business purposes without the
express written consent of the Servicer and that all such information shall be
kept strictly confidential.
It is the intention of this Agreement that the conveyance of the
Depositor's right, title and interest in and to the Trust Fund pursuant to this
Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. If a conveyance
of Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the Depositor is characterized as a pledge
and not a sale, then the Depositor shall be deemed to have transferred to the
Trustee all of the Depositor's right, title and interest in, to and under the
obligations of the Seller deemed to be secured by said pledge; and it is the
intention of this Agreement that the Depositor shall also be deemed to have
granted to the Trustee a first priority security interest in all of the
Depositor's right, title, and interest in, to and under the obligations of the
Seller to the Depositor deemed to be secured by said pledge and that the Trustee
shall be deemed to be an independent custodian for purposes of perfection of the
security interest granted to the Depositor. If the conveyance of the Mortgage
Loans from the Depositor to the Trustee is characterized as a pledge, it is the
intention of this Agreement that this Agreement shall constitute a security
agreement under applicable law, and that the Depositor shall be deemed to have
granted to the Trustee a first priority security interest in all of the
Depositor's right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans, all
payments of principal of or interest on such Mortgage Loans, all other rights
relating to and payments made in respect of the Trust Fund, and all proceeds of
any thereof. If the trust created by this Agreement terminates prior to the
satisfaction of the claims of any Person in any Certificates, the security
interest created hereby shall continue in full force and effect and the Trustee
shall be deemed to be the collateral agent for the benefit of such Person.
In addition to the conveyance made in the first paragraph of this
Section 2.01, the Depositor does hereby convey, assign and set over to the
Trustee all of its right, title and interest in that portion of the Trust Fund
described in items (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) of the definition thereof and
further assigns to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders those
representations and warranties of the Seller contained in the Sale Agreement and
described in Section 3.01 hereof and the benefit of the repurchase obligations
of the Seller described in Sections 2.02 and 3.01 hereof and the obligations of
the Seller contained in the Sale Agreement to take, at the request of the
Depositor or the Trustee, all action on its part which is reasonably necessary
to ensure the enforceability of a Mortgage Loan.
40
The parties hereto agree and understand that it is not intended that
any mortgage loan be included in the Trust that is any of (i) a "High-Cost Home
Loan" as defined in the New Jersey Home Ownership Act effective November 27,
2003, (ii) a "High-Cost Home Loan" as defined in the New Mexico Home Loan
Protection Act effective January 1, 2004, (iii) a "High-Cost Home Mortgage Loan"
as defined in the Massachusetts Predatory Home Loan Practices Act effective
November 7, 2004 or (iv) a "High-Cost Home Loan" as defined by the Indiana High
Cost Home Loan Law effective January 1, 2005.
Section 2.02 Acceptance by Trustee. Except as set forth in the
Exception Report delivered contemporaneously herewith (the "Exception Report"),
the Trustee acknowledges receipt of the Mortgage Note for each Mortgage Loan and
delivery of a Mortgage File (but does not acknowledge receipt of all documents
required to be included in such Mortgage File) with respect to each Mortgage
Loan and declares that it holds and will hold such documents and any other
documents constituting a part of the Mortgage Files delivered to it in trust for
the use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Depositor
will cause the Seller to repurchase any Mortgage Loans to which an exception was
taken in the Exception Report unless such exception is cured to the satisfaction
of the Trustee within 45 Business Days of the Closing Date.
The Trustee agrees, for the benefit of Certificateholders, to review
each Mortgage File delivered to it within 270 days after the Closing Date to
ascertain that all documents required by Section 2.01 have been executed and
received, and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified in
Exhibit A that have been conveyed to it. If the Trustee finds any document or
documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective
(that is, mutilated, damaged, defaced or unexecuted) in any material respect,
the Trustee shall promptly (and in any event within no more than five Business
Days) after such finding so notify the Servicer, the Seller and the Depositor.
In addition, the Trustee shall also notify the Servicer, the Seller and the
Depositor, if (a) in examining the Mortgage Files, the documentation shows on
its face (i) any adverse claim, lien or encumbrance, (ii) that any Mortgage Note
was overdue or had been dishonored, (iii) any evidence on the face of any
Mortgage Note or Mortgage of any security interest or other right or interest
therein, or (iv) any defense against or claim to the Mortgage Note by any party
or (b) the original Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon with respect to
a Mortgage Loan is not received within 270 days of the Closing Date; provided,
however, that if the Depositor cannot deliver the original Mortgage with
evidence of recording thereon because of a delay caused by the public recording
office where such Mortgage has been delivered for recordation, the Depositor
shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee written notice stating
that such Mortgage has been delivered to the appropriate public recording
officer for recordation and thereafter the Depositor shall deliver or cause to
be delivered such Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon upon receipt
thereof from the public recording office. The Trustee shall request that the
Seller correct or cure such omission, defect or other irregularity, or
substitute a Mortgage Loan pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.03, within 60
days from the date the Seller was notified of such omission or defect and, if
the Seller does not correct or cure such omission or defect within such period,
that the Seller purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee within 90 days from
the date the Trustee notified the Seller of such omission, defect or other
irregularity at the Purchase Price of such Mortgage Loan. The Purchase Price for
any Mortgage Loan purchased pursuant to this Section 2.02 shall be paid to the
Servicer and deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account promptly upon
receipt, and, upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification of such
deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall promptly release to the
Seller the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such
instruments of transfer or assignment, without recourse, as shall be necessary
to vest in the Seller or its designee, as the case may be, any Mortgage Loan
released pursuant hereto, and the Trustee shall have no further responsibility
with regard to such Mortgage Loan. It is understood and agreed that the
obligation of the Seller to purchase, cure or substitute any Mortgage Loan as to
which a material defect in or omission of a constituent document exists shall
constitute the sole remedy respecting such defect or omission available to the
Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders. The Trustee shall be under no duty or
obligation to inspect, review and examine such documents, instruments,
certificates or other papers to determine that they are genuine, enforceable or
appropriate to the represented purpose, or that they have actually been
recorded, or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face. The
Trustee shall keep confidential the name of each Mortgagor and shall not solicit
any such Mortgagor for the purpose of refinancing the related Mortgage Loan.
41
Within 280 days of the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deliver to the
Depositor and the Servicer the Trustee's Certification, substantially in the
form of Exhibit G attached hereto, setting forth the status of the Mortgage
Files as of such date.

to this Agreement in trust for the use and benefit of all present and future
Certificateholders. The Trustee acknowledges the assignment to it for the

authenticated and delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor, in exchange
for the Mortgage Loans, Certificates duly authenticated by the Trustee or, if an
Authenticating Agent has been appointed pursuant to Section 4.06, the
Authenticating Agent in authorized denominations evidencing ownership of the
entire Trust Fund.
Section 2.04 REMIC Elections.
(a) The Depositor hereby instructs and authorizes the Servicer, on
behalf of the Trust Fund, to make appropriate elections to treat the Trust Fund
as comprising two REMICs (the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC). This
Agreement shall be construed so as to carry out the intention of the parties
that each REMIC created hereunder be treated as a REMIC at all times prior to

of uncertificated Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interests. Each of the Upper-Tier
REMIC Regular Interests is hereby designated as a "regular interest" (within the
meaning of Section 860G(a)(1) of the Code) in the Upper-Tier REMIC. The Class

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE DEPOSITOR AND
THE SERVICER; REPURCHASE OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 3.01 Representations and Warranties of the Depositor with
respect to the Mortgage Loans.
44
The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee for the
benefit of the Certificateholders that on the Closing Date it has entered into
the Sale Agreement with CHF as Seller, that the Seller has made the following
representations and warranties with respect to each Mortgage Loan in the Sale
Agreement as of the Closing Date, which representations and warranties run to
and are for the benefit of the Depositor and the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, and as to which the Depositor has assigned to the Trustee
for the benefit of the Certificateholders, pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof, the
right to cause the Seller to repurchase a Mortgage Loan as to which there has
occurred an uncured breach of representations and warranties in accordance with
the provisions of the Sale Agreement.
(a) The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule is
complete, true and correct in all material respects;
(b) With respect to a Mortgage Loan which is not a Co-op Loan, the
Mortgage creates a first lien or a first priority ownership interest in an
estate in fee simple in real property securing the related Mortgage Note. With
respect to a Co-op Loan, the related Mortgage is a valid, enforceable and
subsisting first security interest on the related cooperative shares securing
the related Mortgage Note, subject only to (a) liens of the related residential
cooperative housing corporation for unpaid assessments representing the
Mortgagor's pro rata share of the related residential cooperative housing
corporation's payments for its blanket mortgage, current and future real
property taxes, insurance premiums, maintenance fees and other assessments to
which like collateral is commonly subject and (b) other matters to which like
collateral is commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the
benefits of the security intended to be provided by the related security
agreement. There are no liens against or security interest in the cooperative
shares relating to each Co-op Loan (except for unpaid maintenance, assessments
and other amounts owed to the related cooperative which individually or in the
aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on such Co-op Loan), which
have priority over the Trustee's security interest in such cooperative shares;
(c) All payments due prior to the Cut-off Date for such Mortgage Loan
have been made as of the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan is not delinquent in
payment more than 30 days and has not been dishonored; to the best of the
Seller's knowledge, there are no material defaults under the terms of the
Mortgage Loan; the Seller has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or
knowingly received any advance of funds from a party other than the owner of the
Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage (or, with respect to a Co-op Loan,
the related Mortgagor), directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount
required by the Mortgage Loan; there has been no more than one delinquency in
excess of 30 days during the preceding twelve-month period;
(d) To the best of the Seller's knowledge, all taxes, governmental
assessments, insurance premiums, water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold
payments or ground rents which previously became due and owing have been paid,
or escrow funds have been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every
such escrowed item which remains unpaid and which has been assessed but is not
yet due and payable;
(e) The terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not been
impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written
instruments. No Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part, from the terms
thereof except in connection with an assumption agreement and which assumption
agreement is part of the Mortgage File and the terms of which are reflected in
the Mortgage Loan Schedule;
45
(f) The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any right of
rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including, without limitation, the
defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage
Note or Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Mortgage
Note or Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of
rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury,
and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been
asserted with respect thereto, and the Mortgagor was not a debtor in any state
or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding at the time the Mortgage Loan was
originated;
(g) With respect to a Mortgage Loan which is not a Co-op Loan, all
buildings or other customarily insured improvements upon the Mortgaged Property
are insured by an insurer acceptable under the FNMA Guides against loss by fire,
hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are provided for in the
FNMA Guides or by FHLMC. All such standard hazard policies are in full force and
effect and on the date of origination contained a standard mortgagee clause
naming the Seller and its successors in interest and assigns as loss payee and
such clause is still in effect and all premiums due thereon have been paid. If
required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, the Mortgaged
Property is covered by a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the
current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration which policy conforms
to FNMA and FHLMC requirements. The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder
to maintain all such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and expense, and on the
Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to maintain
such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and expense and to seek reimbursement
therefor from the Mortgagor;
(h) Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local laws and
all applicable predatory and abusive lending laws, including, without
limitation, usury, truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer
credit protection, equal credit opportunity or disclosure laws applicable to the
Mortgage Loan have been complied with in all material respects;
(i) The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled or subordinated, in
whole or in part, or rescinded, and the Mortgaged Property has not been released
from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part nor has any instrument been
executed that would effect any such release, cancellation, subordination or
rescission;
(j) With respect to a Mortgage Loan which is not a Co-op Loan, the
Mortgage is a valid, subsisting, enforceable and perfected first lien on the
Mortgaged Property, including, all buildings on the Mortgaged Property. The
Mortgage and the Mortgage Note do not contain any evidence of any security
interest or other interest or right thereto. Such lien is free and clear of all
adverse claims, liens and encumbrances having priority over the first lien of
the Mortgage subject only to (1) the lien of non-delinquent current real
property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable, (2) covenants,
conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the
public record as of the date of recording which are acceptable to mortgage
lending institutions generally and either (A) which are referred to or otherwise
considered in the appraisal made for the originator of the Mortgage Loan, or (B)
which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property as
set forth in such appraisal, and (3) other matters to which like properties are
commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the
security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or
marketability of the related Mortgaged Property. Any security agreement, chattel
mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the
Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting, enforceable and
perfected first lien and first priority security interest on the property
described therein, and the Depositor has the full right to sell and assign the
same to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders;
46
(k) The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are original and genuine
and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof,
enforceable in all respects in accordance with its terms subject to bankruptcy,
insolvency and other laws of general application affecting the rights of
creditors and the Depositor has taken all action necessary to transfer such
rights of enforceability to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders. All parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had the
legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the
Mortgage Note and the Mortgage. The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have been
duly and property executed by such parties. The proceeds of the Mortgage Loan
have been fully disbursed and there is no requirement for future advances
thereunder, and any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or
off-site improvements and as to disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have
been complied with;
(l) The Seller is the sole owner and holder of the Mortgage Loan and
the indebtedness evidenced by the Mortgage Note, except for the Assignments of
Mortgage which have been sent for recording, and upon recordation the Seller
will be the owner of record of the Mortgage and the indebtedness evidenced by
the Mortgage Note, and upon the sale of the Mortgage Loan to the Trust for the
benefit of the Certificateholders, the Seller will retain the Mortgage File or
any part thereof with respect thereto not delivered to the Trust for the benefit
of the Certificateholders or its designee in trust only for the purpose of
servicing and supervising the servicing of the Mortgage Loan. Immediately prior
to the transfer and assignment to the Trust for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, the Mortgage Loan, including the Mortgage Note and the
Mortgage, were not subject to an assignment or pledge, and the Depositor had
good and marketable title to and was the sole owner thereof and had full right
to transfer and sell the Mortgage Loan to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, lien, pledge,
charge, claim or security interest and has the full right and authority subject
to no interest or participation of, or agreement with, any other party, to sell
and assign the Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement and following the sale
of the Mortgage Loan, the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders will
own such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation
interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest;
(m) With respect to a Mortgage Loan which is not a Co-op Loan, the
Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA lender's title insurance policy or other
generally acceptable form of policy or insurance acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC,
issued by a title insurer acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC and qualified to do
business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring
(subject to the exceptions contained in (j) (1), (2) and (3) above) the Seller,
its successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in the
original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan. Such lender's title insurance
policy insures ingress and egress by or upon the Mortgaged Property or any
interest therein. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has
been given the opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage title
insurance. The Seller, its successors and assigns, are the sole insureds of such
lender's title insurance policy, and such lender's title insurance policy is in
full force and effect and will be in full force and effect upon the consummation
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No claims have been made
under such lender's title insurance policy, and no prior holder of the related
Mortgage, including the Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything which
would impair the coverage of such lender's title insurance policy;
(n) There is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration
existent, under the Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note and no event which,
with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure
period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event permitting
acceleration; and neither the Seller nor any prior mortgagee has waived any
default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration;
(o) There are no mechanics', or similar liens or claims which have been
filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under law
could give rise to such liens) affecting the related Mortgaged Property (or the
related residential dwelling unit in the Underlying Mortgage Property, in the
case of a Co-op Loan) which are or may be liens prior to or equal to the lien of
the related Mortgage;
47
(p) With respect to a Mortgage Loan which is not a Co-op Loan, all
improvements subject to the Mortgage which were considered in determining the
Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property lie wholly within the boundaries and
building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property (and wholly within the
project with respect to a condominium unit) and no improvements on adjoining
properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property except those which are insured
against by the title insurance policy referred to in clause (m) above and all
improvements on the property comply with all applicable zoning and subdivision
laws and ordinances; the Mortgaged Property is lawfully occupied under
applicable law;
(q) The Mortgage Loan complies in all material respects with all the
terms, conditions and requirements of the Seller's underwriting standards in
effect at the time of origination of such Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Notes and
Mortgages (exclusive of any riders) are on forms generally acceptable to FNMA or
FHLMC. Monthly Payments under the Mortgage Note are due and payable on the first
day of each month. The Mortgage contains the usual and enforceable provisions of
the originator at the time of origination for the acceleration of the payment of
the unpaid principal amount of the Mortgage Loan if the related Mortgaged
Property is sold without the prior consent of the mortgagee thereunder;
(r) The Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the
case of a Co-op Loan), is not subject to any material damage by waste, fire,
earthquake, windstorm, flood or other casualty. To the best of the Seller's
knowledge, at origination of the Mortgage Loan there was, and there currently
is, no proceeding pending for the total or partial condemnation of the Mortgaged
Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan);
(s) The related Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions
such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the
realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security
provided thereby, including, (l) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed
of trust, by trustee's sale, and (2) otherwise by judicial foreclosure. There is
no homestead or other exemption available to the Mortgagor which would interfere
with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee's sale or the right
to foreclose the Mortgage subject to applicable federal and state laws and
judicial precedent with respect to bankruptcy and right of redemption or similar
law;
(t) If the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, authorized
and duly qualified if required under applicable law to act as such, has been
properly designated and currently so serves and is named in the Mortgage, and no
fees or expenses, except as may be required by local law, are or will become
payable by the Purchaser to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in
connection with a trustee's sale or attempted sale after default by the
Mortgagor;
(u) The Mortgage File contains an appraisal or a recertification
document (in the case of a Mortgage Loan originated under the Seller's
Streamlined Refinance Program) of the related Mortgaged Property (or the related
residential dwelling unit in the Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a
Co-op Loan), signed prior to the final approval of the mortgage loan application
by an appraiser approved by the Seller who had no interest, direct or indirect,
in the Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a
Co-op Loan), or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation
is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan. The
appraisal is in a form acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC;
(v) All parties which have had any interest in the Mortgage, whether as
mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the period in which
they held and disposed of such interest, were) (A) in substantial compliance
with any and all applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the state
wherein the Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of
a Co-op Loan), is located, and (B) (1) organized under the laws of such state,
or (2) qualified to do business in such state, or (3) federal savings and loan
associations or national banks or a Federal Home Loan Bank or savings bank
having principal offices in such state, or (4) not doing business in such state;
48
(w) The related Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any
collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the security
interest of any applicable security interest of any applicable agreement or
chattel mortgage referred to above and such collateral does not serve as
security for any other obligation;
(x) The Mortgagor has received all disclosure materials required by
applicable law with respect to the making of such mortgage loans;
(y) The Mortgage Loan does not contain "graduated payment" features;
(z) The Mortgagor is not in bankruptcy and, to the best of the Seller's
knowledge, the Mortgagor is not insolvent;
(aa) The Mortgage Loans are fixed rate mortgage loans. Each Mortgage
Loan has an original term to maturity of not more than thirty (30) years with
interest payable in arrears on the first day of each month. Each Mortgage Note
is payable in equal monthly installments of principal and interest which are
sufficient to amortize the Mortgage Loan fully by the stated maturity date. No
Mortgage Loan contains terms or provisions which would result in negative
amortization;
(bb) Each Mortgage Note, each Mortgage, each Assignment of Mortgage and
any other documents required pursuant to this Agreement to be delivered to the
Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders or its designee, or its assignee for
each Mortgage Loan, have been, on or before the Closing Date, delivered to the
Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders or its designee, or its assignee;
(cc) All escrow payments have been collected in full compliance with
state and federal law and the provisions of the related Mortgage Note and
Mortgage. As to any Mortgage Loan that is the subject of an escrow, escrow of
funds is not prohibited by applicable law and has been established in an amount
sufficient to pay for every escrowed item that remains unpaid and has been
assessed but is not yet due and payable. No escrow deposits or other charges or
payments due under the Mortgage Note have been capitalized under any Mortgage or
the related Mortgage Note. Any interest required to be paid pursuant to state,
federal and local law has been properly paid and credited;
(dd) [Reserved];
(ee) In the event that at origination the Mortgage Loan has a
Loan-to-Value Ratio greater than 80%, the excess of the principal balance of the
Mortgage Loan over 75% of the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property, with
respect to a refinanced Mortgage Loan, or the lesser of the Appraised Value or
the purchase price of the Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property,
in the case of a Co-op Loan), with respect to a purchase money Mortgage Loan, is
and will be insured as to payment defaults by a Primary Insurance Policy issued
by a Qualified Insurer, except where the primary mortgage insurance was (i)
impermissible at origination at applicable law, in which case such Mortgage Loan
was originated in accordance with applicable law, (ii) cancelled at the request
of the Mortgagor pursuant to the cancellation requirements of FNMA, FHLMC, state
law or, as applicable the Home Owner and Equity Protection Act of 1994, as
amended, or (iii) automatically terminated in accordance with the termination
requirements of FNMA, FHLMC, state law or, as applicable the Home Owner and
Equity Protection Act of 1994, as amended. All provisions of such Primary
Insurance Policy have been and are being complied with, such policy is in full
force and effect, and all premiums due thereunder have been paid. No action,
inaction, or event has occurred and no state of facts exists that has, or will
result in the exclusion from, denial of, or defense to coverage. Any Mortgage
Loan subject to a Primary Insurance Policy obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to
maintain the Primary Insurance Policy and to pay all premiums and charges in
connection therewith. The Mortgage Rate for the Mortgage Loan as set forth on
the Mortgage Loan Schedule is net of any such insurance premium;
49
(ff) The Assignment of Mortgage is in recordable form and is acceptable
for recording (or, in the case of a Co-op Loan, is in a form acceptable for
filing) under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property (or
underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan) is located;
(gg) As to Mortgage Loans that are not secured by an interest in a
leasehold estate, the Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in
the case of a Co-op Loan), is located in the state identified in the Mortgage
Loan Schedule and consists of a single parcel of real property with a detached
single family residence erected thereon, or a two-to four-family dwelling, or an
individual condominium unit in a condominium project, or a dwelling unit in a
residential cooperative housing corporation or an individual unit in an attached
planned unit development or a detached planned unit development, provided,
however, that no residence or dwelling is a single parcel of real property with
a mobile home thereon. As of the date of origination, no portion of the
Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op
Loan), was used for commercial purposes, and since the date of origination, to
the best of the Seller's knowledge, no portion of the Mortgaged Property (or
Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan), is used for
commercial purposes;
(hh) If the Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit or a planned unit
development (other than a de minimis planned unit development), as of the date
of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, such condominium or planned unit
development project met the Seller's eligibility requirements, as set forth in
the Seller's underwriting guidelines as of such date; in the case of each Co-op
Loan, the related residential cooperative housing corporation complied in all
material respects with the Seller's requirements as set forth in the Seller's
underwriting guidelines as of such date;
(ii) To the best of the Seller's knowledge, there is no pending action
or proceeding directly involving the Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged
Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan), in which compliance with any
environmental law, rule or regulation is an issue;
(jj) As of the Cut-off Date, the Seller has not granted any interest
rate relief to the Mortgagor under the Relief Act;
(kk) No Mortgage Loan was made in connection with the construction or
rehabilitation of a Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the
case of a Co-op Loan), or facilitating the trade-in or exchange of a Mortgaged
Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan);
(ll) No action has been taken or failed to be taken by Depositor, on or
prior to the Closing Date, which has resulted or will result in an exclusion
from, denial of, or defense to coverage under any Primary Insurance Policy
(including, without limitation, any exclusions, denials or defenses which would
limit or reduce the availability of the timely payment of the full amount of the
loss otherwise due thereunder to the insured) whether arising out of actions,
representations, errors, omissions, negligence, or fraud of the Depositor, or
for any other reason under such coverage;
(mm) The Mortgage Loan was originated by a mortgagee approved by the
Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to Sections 203 and 211 of
the National Housing Act, as amended, a savings and loan association, a savings
bank, a commercial bank, credit union, insurance company or similar institution
which is supervised and examined by a federal or state authority;
50
(nn) Principal payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced no more than
sixty (60) days after funds were disbursed in connection with the Mortgage Loan.
The Mortgage Note is payable on the first day of each month in equal monthly
installments of principal and interest, with interest calculated and payable in
arrears, sufficient to amortize the Mortgage Loan fully by the stated maturity
date, over an original term of not more than thirty years from commencement of
amortization;
(oo) As of the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan is a "qualified
mortgage" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (without regard
to Treasury Regulations ss.1.860G-2(f) or any similar rule that provides that a
defective obligation is a qualified mortgage for a temporary period);
(pp) With respect to a Mortgage Loan that is a Co-op Loan, the stock
that is pledged as security for the Mortgage Loan is held by a Person as a
tenant-stockholder (as defined in Section 216 of the Code) in a cooperative
housing corporation (as defined in Section 216 of the Code);
(qq) As of the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan is not the subject of
pending or final foreclosure proceedings and the Seller would not, based on the
delinquency status of the Mortgage Loan, institute foreclosure proceedings with
respect to the Mortgage Loan prior to the next scheduled payment for the
Mortgage Loan;
(rr) As of the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan does not provide for
interest other than at either (i) a single fixed rate in effect throughout the
term of the Mortgage Loan or (ii) a "variable rate" (within the meaning of
Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(3)) in effect throughout the term of the
Mortgage Loan;
(ss) No Mortgage Loan is a "covered loan" within the meaning of the
Georgia Fair Lending Act of 2002, as amended;
(tt) None of the Mortgage Loans are (a) covered by the Home Ownership
and Equity Protection Act of 1994 or (b) classified as a "high cost" loan or
similarly classified using different terminology under any federal, state or
local law imposing heightened regulatory scrutiny or additional legal liability
for residential mortgage loans having high interest rates, points and/or fees
such as predatory lending laws; None of the Mortgage Loans are "high cost" loans
as defined by the applicable federal, state or local predatory and abusive
lending laws nor is any Mortgage Loan a "High Cost Loan" or "Covered Loan," as
applicable (as such terms are defined in the current Standard & Poor's LEVELS(R)
Glossary which is now version 5.6 revised, appendix E) and no Mortgage Loan
originated on or after October 1, 2002 through March 6, 2003 is governed by the
Georgia Fair Lending Act of 2002, as amended; and
(uu) As to each Mortgage Loan that is secured by an interest in a
leasehold estate, (i) the use of a leasehold estate for residential properties
is an accepted practice in the area where the related Mortgaged Property is
located, (ii) residential property consisting of leasehold estates is marketable
in the area where the related Mortgaged Property is located, (iii) the related
lease has been recorded in the applicable land records, (iv) the lease is valid
and in good standing and is not subject to any prior lien by which the lease
could be terminated or subject to any charge or penalty, and (v) the remaining

51
Upon discovery by any of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee of
a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties which materially
and adversely affects the value of a Mortgage Loan or the interest of the
Certificateholders (or which materially and adversely affects the interests of
the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan in the case of a
representation and warranty relating to a particular Mortgage Loan), the party
discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties
and to the Seller, which notice shall specify the date of discovery. Pursuant to
the Sale Agreement, the Seller shall within 90 days from the earlier of (i) the
date of receipt of notice of such breach or (ii) the date the Seller otherwise
discovers such breach, cure such breach, substitute a Mortgage Loan pursuant to
the provisions of Section 3.03 or, if the breach relates to a particular
Mortgage Loan, purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee at the Purchase
Price. The Purchase Price for the purchased Mortgage Loan shall be paid to the
Servicer and shall be deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account
promptly upon receipt, and, upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification
of such deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall promptly
release to the Seller the related Mortgage File, and the Trustee shall execute
and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment as may be provided to it
by the Servicer, without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller
or its designee, as the case may be, any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto,
and the Trustee shall have no further responsibility with regard to such
Mortgage Loan. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller to
cure, substitute or purchase any Mortgage Loan as to which such a breach has
occurred shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to
Certificateholders or the Trustee on behalf of Certificateholder.
Section 3.02 Representations and Warranties of the Servicer. The
Servicer represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Trustee for the
benefit of the Certificateholders that as of the Closing Date:
(a) The Servicer is a national banking association duly chartered and
validly existing in good standing under the laws of the United States, and the
Servicer is duly qualified or registered as a foreign corporation in good
standing in each jurisdiction in which the ownership or lease or its properties
or the conduct of its business requires such qualification;
(b) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Servicer and
its performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement will not violate
the Servicer's articles of association or by-laws or constitute a default (or an
event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default)
under, or result in the breach of, any material contract, agreement or other
instrument to which the Servicer is a party or which may be applicable to the
Servicer or any of its assets;
(c) This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery
by the Trustee and the Depositor, constitutes a valid, legal and binding
obligation of the Servicer, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms
hereof subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and to
general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforcement is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;
(d) The Servicer is not in default with respect to any order or decree
of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal
or governmental agency, which default might have consequences that would
materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or operations
of the Servicer or its properties or might have consequences that would affect
its performance hereunder; and
(e) No litigation is pending or, to the best of the Servicer's
knowledge, threatened against the Servicer which would prohibit its entering
into this Agreement or performing its obligations under this Agreement. It is
understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in this
Section 3.02 shall survive the issuance and delivery of the Certificates and
shall be continuing as long as any Certificate shall be outstanding or this
Agreement has been terminated.
52
Section 3.03 Option to Substitute. If Seller is required to repurchase
any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.02 or 3.01, the Seller may, at its
option, within two years from the Closing Date, remove such defective Mortgage
Loan from the terms of this Agreement and substitute another mortgage loan for
such defective Mortgage Loan, in lieu of repurchasing such defective Mortgage
Loan. Any substitute Mortgage Loan shall (a) have a Principal Balance at the
time of substitution not in excess of the Principal Balance of the removed
Mortgage Loan (the amount of any difference, plus one month's interest thereon
at the Mortgage Rate borne by the removed Mortgage Loan, being paid by the
Seller and deemed to be a Principal Prepayment to be deposited by the Servicer
in the Collection Account), (b) have a Mortgage Rate not less than, and not more
than one percentage point greater than, the Mortgage Rate of the removed
Mortgage Loan (provided, however, that if the Mortgage Rate on the substitute
Mortgage Loan exceeds the Mortgage Rate on the removed Mortgage Loan, the amount
of that excess interest (the "Substitute Excess Interest") shall be payable to
the Class A-R Certificate), (c) have a remaining term to stated maturity not
later than, and not more than one year less than, the remaining term to stated
maturity of the removed Mortgage Loan, (d) be, in the reasonable determination
of the Servicer, of the same type, quality and character (including location of
the Mortgaged Property (or underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op
Loan)) as the removed Mortgage Loan as if the breach had not occurred, (e) have
a Loan-to-Value Ratio at origination no greater than that of the removed
Mortgage Loan and (f) be, in the reasonable determination of the Seller, in
material compliance with the representations and warranties contained in the
Sale Agreement and described in Section 3.01, as of the date of substitution.
The Seller shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the
withdrawal of the removed Mortgage Loan from this Agreement and the substitution
of such substitute Mortgage Loan therefor and shall send a copy of such amended
Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee. The Sale Agreement provides that upon
such amendment the Seller shall be deemed to have made as to such substitute
Mortgage Loan the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.01 as of
the date of such substitution, which shall be continuing as long as any
Certificate shall be outstanding or this Agreement has not been terminated, and
the remedies for breach of any such representation or warranty shall be as set
forth in Section 3.01. Upon such amendment, the Trustee shall review the
Mortgage File delivered to it relating to the substitute Mortgage Loan, within
the time and in the manner and with the remedies specified in Section 2.02,
except that for purposes of this Section 3.03 (other than the two-year period
specified in the first sentence of this Section), such time shall be measured
from the date of the applicable substitution. In the event of such a
substitution, accrued interest on the substitute Mortgage Loan for the month in
which the substitution occurs and any Principal Prepayments made thereon during
such month shall be the property of the Trust Fund, and accrued interest for
such month on the Mortgage Loan for which the substitution is made and any
Principal Prepayments made thereon during such month shall be the property of
the Seller. The principal payment on a substitute Mortgage Loan due on the Due
Date in the month of substitution shall be the property of the Seller, and the
principal payment on the Mortgage Loan for which the substitution is made due on
such date shall be the property of the Trust Fund.

specified in Section 2.01, delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor.
53
(b) The Depository and the Trustee have entered into a Depository
Agreement dated as of September 23, 2005 (the "Depository Agreement"). Except as

(i) registration of the Book-Entry Certificates may not be transferred as

and transfers of registration of the Book-Entry Certificates on the books of the
Depository shall be governed by applicable rules established by the Depository;
(iii) the Depository may collect its usual and customary fees, charges and
expenses from its Depository Participants; (iv) the Trustee shall deal with the
Depository, Depository Participants and Indirect Participants as representatives
of the Certificate Owners of the Book-Entry Certificates for purposes of
exercising the rights of such Holders under this Agreement, and requests and
directions for and votes of such representatives shall not be deemed to be
inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners; and
(v) the Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon
information furnished by the Depository with respect to its Depository
Participants and furnished by the Depository Participants with respect to
Indirect Participants and persons shown on the books of such Indirect
Participants as direct or indirect Certificate Owners. The Depository Agreement
provides that the Depository shall maintain book-entry records with respect to
the Certificate Owners and with respect to ownership and transfers of such
Certificates.
All transfers by Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates shall be
made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository Participant
or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owners. Each Depository
Participant shall only transfer Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners it
represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with
the Depository's normal procedures.
(c) If (i)(A) the Depository advises the Depositor, the Paying Agent or

Paying Agent or the Depositor are unable after exercise of their reasonable best
efforts to locate a qualified successor or (ii) the Depositor at its option
advises the Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system
through the Depository, the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed
under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, shall notify all Certificate Owners,
through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such event and of the
availability of definitive, fully registered Certificates (the "Definitive
Certificates") to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the
Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying
Agent, of the Book-Entry Certificates by the Depository for registration and
receipt by the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section
4.05, the Paying Agent, of an adequate supply of certificates from the
Depositor, the Trustee or if the Paying Agent is appointed under Section 4.05,
the Paying Agent shall issue the Definitive Certificates based on information
received from the Depository. Neither the Depositor, the Servicer, the Paying
Agent nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such
instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on,
such instructions.
(d) The Certificates (other than the Class A-R Certificate) shall be
issuable in the minimum original dollar denominations (and integral multiples of
$1,000.00 in excess of such amount) and aggregate original dollar denominations
per Class (or in the case of the Class A-X, or Class A-22 Certificates, in the
minimum denominations based on the Class A-X Notional Amount or Class A-22
Notional Amount, respectively) as set forth in the following table (except that,
if necessary, in order to aggregate the Original Certificate Principal Balance
of a Class, one Certificate of such Class will be issued in a different
denomination). A single Class A-R Certificate will be issued in definitive form
in a $100 denomination.

(1) The Class A-X and Class A-22 Certificates are interest-only certificates,
have no principal balance and will bear interest on their respective
notional amounts. The original notional amounts of the Class A-X and Class
A-22 Certificates are $18,824,657.00 and $4,545,454.00, respectively.
(2) The Class A-P Certificates are principal-only certificates and are not
entitled to payments of interest.
(3) The Class A-R Certificate represents the residual interest in each of the
REMIC Pools.
55
The Certificates shall be signed by manual or facsimile signature on
behalf of the Depositor by an officer of the Depositor. Certificates bearing the
manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at the time of signature
officers of the Depositor shall bind the Depositor, notwithstanding that such
individuals or any of them have ceased to be an officer prior to the
authentication and delivery of such Certificate or did not hold such offices at
the date of such Certificates. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit
under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such
Certificate a manual authentication by an officer of the Trustee (or if an
Authenticating Agent has been appointed pursuant to Section 4.06, the
Authenticating Agent) and such authentication upon any Certificate shall be
conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date
of their authentication.
Section 4.02 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
(a) The Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section
4.05, the Paying Agent, shall cause to be kept a Certificate Register in which,
subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee or, if a
Paying Agent has been appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, shall
provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of
Certificates as herein provided.
(b) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at
any office or agency of the Trustee, or if a Paying Agent has been appointed
hereunder pursuant to Section 4.05, the Paying Agent maintained for such
purpose, the Depositor shall execute and the Trustee or if an Authenticating
Agent is appointed under Section 4.06, the Authenticating Agent shall
authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or
transferees, a Certificate of a like Class and aggregate Percentage Interest and
dated the date of authentication by the Authenticating Agent.
(c) No transfer of a Class B-3, Class B-4 or Class B-5 Certificate
shall be made unless such transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration
statement or otherwise in accordance with the requirements under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended. If such a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an
exemption from said Act, (i) the Depositor may require (except with respect to
the initial transfer of a Class B-3, Class B-4 or Class B-5 Certificate from
X.X. Xxxxxx Securities Inc. and except if the transferee executes a certificate
substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto) a written opinion of independent
counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Depositor
that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the
applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from said Act and laws or is being
made pursuant to said Act and laws, which opinion of counsel shall not be an
expense of the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor or the Servicer, and (ii)
the Depositor shall require the transferee to execute a certification
substantially in the form of Exhibit H or Exhibit I.
(d) (i) No transfer of an ERISA Restricted Certificate that is a Class
A-R Certificate shall be made unless the prospective transferee provides the
Depositor with a representation as set forth in Exhibit K to the effect that
such transferee is not an employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, a
plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a plan or arrangement subject to any
provisions under any federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other laws or
regulations that are substantively similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA
or the Code ("Similar Law") (collectively, a "Plan"), or to any Person directly
or indirectly acquiring a Class A-R Certificate for, on behalf of or with any
assets of any such Plan. Each Person to whom a Class A-R Certificate is to be
transferred shall be required or deemed to represent that it is not a Plan, as
set forth in Exhibit K.
56
(ii) No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate other than a
Class A-R Certificate shall be made unless the prospective transferee provides
the Depositor with (A) a representation as set forth in Exhibit M to the effect
that such transferee is not a Plan and is not directly or indirectly acquiring
the Certificate for, on behalf of or with any assets of any such Plan, (B) if
the Certificate has been the subject of an ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, a
representation as set forth in Exhibit M that such transferee is an insurance
company that is acquiring the ERISA-Restricted Certificate with assets contained
in an "insurance company general account," as defined in Section V(E) of
Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE") 95-60, and the acquisition and
holding of the Certificate are covered and exempt under Sections I and III of
PTCE 95-60, or (C) solely in the case of a Definitive Certificate, an Opinion of
Counsel satisfactory to the Depositor to the effect that the acquisition and
holding of such Certificate will not constitute or result in a nonexempt
prohibited transaction under ERISA or the Code, or a violation of Similar Law,
and will not subject the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee to any
obligation in addition to those expressly undertaken in this Agreement, which
Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Servicer or the
Trustee.
(iii) For purposes of paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this Subsection
4.02(d), other than subparagraph (ii)(C), the representation as set forth in
Exhibit K or Exhibit M, as applicable, shall be deemed to have been made to
Depositor by the transferee's acceptance of an ERISA Restricted Certificate (or
the acceptance by a Certificate Owner of the beneficial interest in any Class of
ERISA Restricted Certificates). Notwithstanding any other provision herein to
the contrary, any purported transfer of an ERISA Restricted Certificate to or on
behalf of a Plan without the delivery to the Depositor of a representation or an
Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Depositor as described above shall be
void and of no effect. None of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee shall
be under any liability to any Person for any registration or transfer of any
ERISA Restricted Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section
4.02(d) nor shall the Paying Agent be under any liability for making any
payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other
action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so
long as the transfer was registered in accordance with the foregoing
requirements. The Depositor, Servicer, Paying Agent and/or Trustee shall be
entitled, but not obligated, to recover from any Holder of any ERISA Restricted
Certificate that was in fact a Plan and that held such Certificate in violation
of this Section 4.02(d) all payments made on such ERISA Restricted Certificate
at and after the time it commenced such holding. Any such payments so recovered
shall be paid and delivered to the last preceding Holder of such Certificate
that is not a Plan.
(e) At the option of a Certificateholder, a Certificate may be
exchanged for another Certificate or Certificates of authorized denominations of
a like Class, upon surrender of the Certificate to be exchanged at any office or
agency of the Trustee, or if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section
4.05, the Paying Agent, maintained for such purpose. Whenever the Certificate is
so surrendered for exchange, the Depositor shall execute and the Authenticating
Agent shall authenticate and deliver, the Certificate which the
Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate
presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the
Authenticating Agent) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in the form satisfactory to the Authenticating Agent duly
executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
(f) No service charge shall be made to the Holder for any transfer or
exchange of a Certificate, but the Servicer may require payment by the
Certificateholders of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge
that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of such
Certificate.
(g) All Certificates surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be
destroyed by the Trustee or if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section
4.05, the Paying Agent, in accordance with the Trustee's or, if a Paying Agent
has been appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent's, standard procedures.
57
(h) [intentionally omitted].
(i) A Disqualified Organization is prohibited from acquiring beneficial
ownership of a Class A-R Certificate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, (i) unless and until the Servicer shall have received an
Opinion of Counsel, satisfactory to it in form and substance, to the effect that
the absence of the conditions contained in this Section 4.02(i) would not result
in the imposition of federal tax upon any REMIC created hereunder or cause any
REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC, no transfer, sale or
other disposition of the Class A-R Certificate (including for purposes of this
section any beneficial interest therein) may be made without the express written
consent of the Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar is
appointed, the Trustee, which consent is to be granted by the Certificate
Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar is appointed, the Trustee only upon
compliance with the requirements of this Section and (ii) no transfer, sale or
other disposition of the Class A-R Certificate (or any beneficial interest
therein) may be made to a Person who is not a U.S. Person unless such Person
furnishes the transferor and the Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate
Registrar is appointed, the Trustee, with a duly completed and effective Form
W-8ECI (or any successor thereto) or an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that
such transfer is in accordance with the requirements of the Code and that the
transfer will not be disregarded for federal income tax purposes. As a condition
to granting its consent to a transfer of a Class A-R Certificate, the
Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar is appointed, the Trustee,
shall require the proposed transferee of such Certificate (including, in the
case of the initial issuance of the Class A-R Certificate, the initial Holder
thereof) to execute a letter and affidavit substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit K and shall require the proposed transferor (other than in the
case of the transfer to the initial holder) of such Certificate to execute a
letter substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit K-1. In the absence
of a contrary instruction from the transferor of such Certificate, declaration
(11) in the affidavit in Exhibit K may be left blank. If the transferor requests
by written notice to the Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar
is appointed, the Trustee, prior to the date of the proposed transfer that one
of the two other forms of declaration (11) of such affidavit be used, then the
Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar is appointed, the Trustee,
shall require that such form of declaration (11) be included in such affidavit.
As a condition to the granting of the consent referred to in this
Section 4.02(i), prior to the transfer, sale, pledge, hypothecation or other
disposition of the Class A-R Certificate or any interest therein, the
Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar is appointed, the Trustee
shall require that (1) the proposed transferee deliver to the Trustee or
Certificate Registrar, as applicable, its taxpayer identification number and
state, under penalties of perjury that such number is the social security or
employer identification number, as the case may be, of the transferee or provide
an affidavit under penalties of perjury stating that as of the date of such
transfer such transferee is not and has no intention of becoming a Disqualified
Organization; (2) the proposed transferee deliver to the Trustee or Certificate
Registrar, as applicable, an affidavit stating (i) that such transferee is not
acquiring such Class A-R Certificate as an agent, broker, nominee, or middleman
for a Disqualified Organization, (ii) if the Class A-R Certificate is a
"non-economic residual interest" within the meaning of Treas. Reg.
ss.1.860E-1(c)(2), (X) that no purpose of the acquisition of the Class A-R
Certificate is to avoid or impede the assessment or collection of tax, (Y) that
such transferee has historically paid its debts as they came due and will
continue to pay its debts as they come due, and (Z) that such transferee
represents that it understands that, as the holder of the non-economic residual
interest, the transferee may incur tax liabilities in excess of any cash flows
generated by the interest and that the transferee intends to pay taxes
associated with holding the residual interest, and (iii) unless the Certificate
Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar is appointed, the Trustee consents to
the transfer of the Class A-R Certificate to a Person who is not a U.S. Person
and who has furnished either a duly completed and effective Form W-8ECI (or any
successor thereto) or an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the transfer will
58
not be disregarded for federal income tax purposes, that it is a U.S. Person;
(3) if so requested by the transferor in written notice provided to the
Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar is appointed, the Trustee,
prior to the date of the proposed transfer, the proposed transferee deliver to
the Trustee or Certificate Registrar, as applicable, an affidavit that includes
a declaration made in the form of declaration (11) in the affidavit set forth in
Exhibit K requested by the transferor; and (4) the transferor deliver to the
Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar is appointed, the Trustee
a written certification that as of the date of such transfer it has no knowledge
and no reason to know that the affirmations described in clauses (1), (2) and
(3) were false. The Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar is
appointed, the Trustee shall not grant the consent referred to in this Section
4.02(i) if it has actual knowledge that any statement made in the affidavit
issued pursuant to the preceding sentence is not true. Notwithstanding any
purported transfer, sale or other disposition of the Class A-R Certificate to a
Disqualified Organization or in violation of the provisions of this Section
4.02(i), such transfer, sale or other disposition shall be deemed to be of no
legal force or effect whatsoever and such Disqualified Organization shall not be
deemed to be a Class A-R Certificateholder for any purpose hereunder, including,
but not limited to, the receipt of distributions on such Class A-R Certificate.
If any purported transfer shall be in violation of the provisions of this
Section 4.02(i) then the prior holder of the Class A-R Certificate shall, upon
discovery that the transfer of such Class A-R Certificate was not in fact
permitted by this Section 4.02(i), be restored to all rights and obligations as
a Holder thereof retroactive to the date of the purported transfer of such Class
A-R Certificate. The Trustee, the Servicer and the Certificate Registrar shall
be under no liability to any Person for any registration or transfer of a Class
A-R Certificate that is not permitted by this Section 4.02(i) or for making
payments due on such Class A-R Certificate to the purported Holder thereof or
taking any other action with respect to such purported Holder under the
provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was not registered under
the written certification of the Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate
Registrar is appointed, the Trustee as described in this Section 4.02(i). The
prior Holder shall be entitled to recover from any purported Holder of a Class
A-R Certificate that was in fact not a permitted purported transferee under this
Section 4.02(i) at the time it became a purported Holder all payments made to
such purported Holder on such Class A-R Certificate; provided that the Servicer
shall not be responsible for such recovery. Each Class A-R Certificateholder, by
the acceptance of the Class A-R Certificate, shall be deemed for all purposes to
have consented to the provisions of this Section 4.02(i) and to any amendment to
this Agreement deemed necessary by counsel of the Trustee or the Servicer to
ensure that the Class A-R Certificate is not transferred to a Disqualified
Organization and that any transfer of such Class A-R Certificate will not cause
the imposition of a tax upon any REMIC created hereunder or cause any REMIC
created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC. The restrictions on transfer of
the Class A-R Certificate will cease to apply and be void upon receipt by the
Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar is appointed, the Trustee
of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such restrictions on transfer are no
longer necessary to avoid the risk of material federal taxation to any REMIC
created hereunder or prevent any REMIC created hereunder from qualifying as a
REMIC.
(j) The Servicer shall make available upon written request to each
Holder and each proposed transferee of a Class B-3, Class B-4 or Class B-5
Certificate such information as may be required to permit the proposed transfer
to be effected pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933.
59
Section 4.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If (a)
any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent
has been appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, or the Trustee or, if a
Paying Agent has been appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, receives
evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Certificate, and (b) there is delivered to the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has
been appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, such security or indemnity
as may be required by it to save it harmless, then, in the absence of notice to
the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section 4.05, the
Paying Agent, that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser,
the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section 4.05, the
Paying Agent, shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any
such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like
tenor and Class. Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section,
the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section 4.05, the
Paying Agent, may require of the Certificateholder the payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
relation thereto and any other expenses connected therewith. Any replacement
Certificate of any Class issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute
complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership of the Percentage Interest in
the distributions to which the Certificateholders of such Class are entitled, as
if originally issued, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Certificate shall be found at any time, and such mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Certificate shall be of no force or effect under this Agreement, to the
extent permitted by law.
Section 4.04 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a
Certificate of any Class for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the
Servicer, the Paying Agent and the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name
any Certificate is registered on the Record Date as the owner of such
Certificate and the Percentage Interest in the distributions to which the
Certificateholders of such Class are entitled on the relevant date as the Holder
of such Certificate and the Percentage Interest represented by such Certificate
for the purpose of receiving remittances pursuant to Section 6.01 and for all
other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Depositor, the Servicer, the Paying
Agent nor the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
Section 4.05 Appointment of Paying Agent, Certificate Registrar and
Backup Advancer; Certificate Account. The Trustee may appoint a Paying Agent and
a Certificate Registrar hereunder, but such Paying Agent and such Certificate
Registrar shall not be the Depositor, the Seller, or an Affiliate of the
Depositor or the Seller unless such Paying Agent or such Certificate Registrar
is the Global Debt Department of Chase. In the event of an appointment of such
Paying Agent, no later than two Business Days prior to each Distribution Date,
the Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Paying Agent from
funds on deposit in the Collection Account a sum up to the Available
Distribution Amount, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of
Certificateholders in a segregated account (the "Certificate Account") which
shall be an Eligible Account in the name of "Wachovia Bank, N.A., as Trustee, in
trust for and for the benefit of the Certificateholders of Multi-Class Mortgage
Pass-Through Certificates, Chase Mortgage Finance Corporation, Series 2005-S2 -
Certificate Account". The Paying Agent shall establish such Certificate Account
with a commercial bank, a savings bank or a savings and loan association. The
Paying Agent may invest moneys in the Certificate Account in Eligible
Investments, which shall mature not later than a date sufficient to make payment
on the Distribute Date next following the date of such investment and shall not
be sold or disposed of prior to maturity. All income and gain realized from any
such investment shall be for the benefit of the Paying Agent as additional
compensation and shall be subject to its withdrawal or order from time to time.
The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments (to the
extent not offset by income from other such investments) shall be deposited in
the Certificate Account by the Paying Agent out of its own funds immediately as
realized. The Servicer shall cause the Paying Agent to perform each of the
obligations of the Paying Agent set forth herein and shall be liable to the
Trustee and the Certificateholders for failure of the Paying Agent to perform
such obligations. If the Paying Agent is a party other than the Trustee, the
Trustee shall have no liability in connection with the performance or failure of
performance of the Paying Agent. The Trustee designates the Global Debt
Department of Chase as the initial Paying Agent and initial Certificate
Registrar. Only the Trustee may remove the Paying Agent and Certificate
Registrar and may do so at will, provided that the Trustee gives 20 days' prior
written notice of such removal to the Paying Agent and Certificate Registrar and
the Rating Agencies. The Paying Agent is designated the Backup Advancer. The
Paying Agent may not be removed as Backup Advancer nor resign as Backup Advancer
unless (a) Chase is removed or resigns as Servicer or (b) it has been removed as
Paying Agent. Thereafter, provided that the Paying Agent gives written notice to
the Rating Agencies and the Trustee of its resignation as Backup Advancer, the
Paying Agent will no longer be obligated to provide Advances 20 or more days
from the date of such notice.
60
If, on any Distribution Date, the Paying Agent fails to distribute to
Certificateholders the amounts then on deposit in the Certificate Account for
the purposes specified herein, the Trustee shall be obligated promptly upon its
knowledge thereof to distribute such amounts to Certificateholders in the manner
and in such amounts based upon information provided by the Servicer; provided
that in no event shall the Trustee be obligated for purposes of this paragraph
to distribute to Certificateholders any amounts other than those on deposit in
the Certificate Account or expend any funds not reimbursable pursuant to Section
10.05 hereof, except as otherwise provided herein. Notwithstanding anything in
this Agreement to the contrary, the Trustee shall be liable to the Servicer and
the Certificateholders only for its negligence in connection with the withdrawal
of funds from the Certificate Account by the Trustee and the distribution of
such funds by the Trustee to Certificateholders pursuant to this paragraph.
The Servicer shall cause each Paying Agent other than the Trustee to
execute and deliver to the Servicer and the Trustee on the Closing Date or, if
subsequently appointed, on the date of appointment, a written instrument
executed by an officer of the Paying Agent in which such Paying Agent shall
agree with the Servicer and the Trustee that such Paying Agent will hold all
sums held by it for the payment to Certificateholders in trust for the benefit
of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such
Certificateholders.
Section 4.06 Authenticating Agents.
(a) The Trustee may appoint one or more Authenticating Agents (each, an
"Authenticating Agent") which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the
Trustee in authenticating the Certificates. Wherever reference is made in this
Agreement to the authentication of Certificates by the Trustee or the Trustee's
certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include
authentication on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a
certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent must be an entity organized and
doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state,
having a combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000, authorized under
such laws to do a trust business and subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authorities. If the Authenticating Agent is a party other than
the Trustee, the Trustee shall have no liability in connection with the
performance or failure of performance of the Authenticating Agent. The Trustee
hereby appoints Chase as the initial Authenticating Agent.
(b) Any Person into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a
party, or any Person succeeding to the corporate agency business of any
Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be the Authenticating Agent without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee
or the Authenticating Agent.
(c) Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving at least
30 days' advance written notice of resignation to the Trustee and the Depositor.
The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by
giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and the
Depositor. Upon receiving a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or
in case at any time any Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in
accordance within the provisions of this Section 4.06, the Trustee may appoint a
successor Authenticating Agent, shall give written notice of such appointment to
the Depositor and shall mail notice of such appointment to all Holders of
Certificates. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its
appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties
and responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if
originally named as Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent
shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section 4.06. No
Authenticating Agent shall have responsibility or liability for any action taken
by it as such at the direction of the Trustee. Any Authenticating Agent shall be
entitled to reasonable compensation for its services and any such compensation
shall be payable solely by the Trustee, without any right of reimbursement from
the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trust Fund.

ARTICLE V
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 5.01 Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall
service and administer the Mortgage Loans and shall have full power and
authority, acting alone or through Sub-Servicers as provided in Section 5.02, to
do any and all things which it may deem necessary or desirable in connection
with such servicing and administration, all in accordance with Accepted
Servicing Practices. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Servicer in its own name or in the name of a Sub-Servicer shall, pursuant to a
power of attorney granted hereby by the Trustee for such purposes, when the
Servicer or the Sub-Servicer, as the case may be, believes it appropriate in its
best judgment, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and
the Trustee or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or
cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge and all other
comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to
the related Mortgaged Properties; provided, however, that subject to the
provisions of this paragraph, the Servicer may allow a modification with respect
to a Mortgage Loan if the Servicer would take such action in the ordinary course
of its business if it were the owner of the Mortgage Loan. The Servicer may
agree to a modification of any Mortgage Loan (the "Relevant Mortgage Loan") upon
the request of the related Mortgagor, provided that (i) the modification is in
lieu of a refinancing and the Mortgage Rate on the Relevant Mortgage Loan, as
modified, is approximately a prevailing market rate of newly-originated mortgage
loans having similar terms, (ii) the aggregate of the adjusted bases of all
Modified Mortgage Loans (including the Relevant Mortgage Loans) plus the
aggregate adjusted bases of any assets that are not qualified mortgages or
permitted investments under Section 860G(a) of the Code that are assets of the
Trust Fund established hereunder at all times on any day is less than one
percent of the aggregate of the adjusted bases of all assets of the Trust Fund
(including such Modified Mortgage Loans) on such day, and (iii) the Servicer
purchases the Relevant Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund as described below.
Effective immediately after such modification, and, in any event, on the same
Business Day on which the modification occurs, all right, title and interest of
the Trustee in and to the Modified Mortgage Loan shall automatically be deemed
transferred and assigned to the Servicer and all benefits and burdens of
ownership thereof, including without limitation the right to accrued interest
thereon from and including the date of modification and the risk of default
thereon, shall pass to the Servicer. To confirm such transfer and assignment,
the Servicer, as servicer hereunder, as soon as practicable shall execute an
instrument of assignment of the Modified Mortgage Loan without recourse in
customary form to the Servicer in its individual capacity. The Servicer shall
deposit the Purchase Price for any Modified Mortgage Loan in the Collection
Account pursuant to Section 5.08. Upon receipt by the Trustee of written
notification of any such deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee
shall release to the Servicer the related Mortgage File and shall execute and
deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without
recourse, as shall be necessary more fully to vest in the Servicer any Modified
Mortgage Loan previously transferred and assigned pursuant thereto.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Servicer shall not make or
permit any modification of a Mortgage Loan that would cause any REMIC Pool to
fail to qualify as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes or that would result
in the imposition of any material tax under Section 860F(a) or Section 860G(d)
of the Code.
62
The Servicer shall furnish to the Trustee for execution and redelivery
to the Servicer or, at the request of the Servicer, a Sub-Servicer, such
documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to service and
administer the Mortgage Loans and the Trustee shall not be responsible for the
Servicer's application thereof. The Servicer agrees to remain eligible as either
a FNMA or FHLMC seller/servicer, or both, for so long as it is Servicer.
All Servicing Advances made by the Servicer in effecting the timely
payment of taxes, insurance and assessments on the properties subject to the
Mortgage Loans shall not, for the purpose of calculating monthly distributions
to Certificateholders, be added to the amount owing under the related Mortgage
Loans, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit, and such
Servicing Advances shall be recoverable by the Servicer to the extent permitted
by Sections 5.09 and 5.23.
Section 5.02 Sub-Servicing Agreements Between Servicer and
Sub-Servicers; Enforcement of Sub-Servicer's Obligations.
(a) The Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements with
Sub-Servicers for the servicing and administration of all or part of the
Mortgage Loans. References in this Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by
the Servicer in servicing the Mortgage Loans serviced by it include actions
taken or to be taken by a Sub-Servicer on behalf of the Servicer. Each
Sub-Servicing Agreement will be upon such terms and conditions as are not
inconsistent with this Agreement and as the Servicer and the Sub-Servicer have
agreed. The Servicer hereby agrees to notify the Trustee in writing promptly
upon the appointment of any Sub-Servicer. For purposes of this Agreement, the
receipt by the Sub-Servicer of any amount with respect to a Mortgage Loan (other
than amounts representing servicing compensation or reimbursement for an
advance) shall be treated as the receipt by the Servicer of such amount. The
Sub-Servicer shall deposit all such funds in an Eligible Account.
(b) As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Servicer, for
the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall enforce the
obligations of each Sub-Servicer under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement. Such
enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims,
termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements as appropriate, and the pursuit of other
remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such
time as the Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it
the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall pay the costs of
such enforcement at its own expense but shall be reimbursed therefor only (i)
from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement only to the extent, if
any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in respect of the related
Mortgage Loans or (ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys'
fees against the party against whom such enforcement is directed.
Section 5.03 Successor Sub-Servicers. The Servicer shall be entitled to
terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement that may exist in accordance with the
terms and conditions of such Sub-Servicing Agreement and without any limitation
by virtue of this Agreement.
Section 5.04 Liability of the Servicer. Notwithstanding any
Sub-Servicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to
agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a Sub-Servicer or reference
to actions taken through a Sub-Servicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain
obligated and liable to the Trustee and Certificateholders for the servicing and
administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such
Sub-Servicing Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from
the Sub-Servicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions
as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans.
The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Sub-Servicer
for indemnification of the Servicer and nothing contained in this Agreement
shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.
63
Section 5.05 No Contractual Relationship Between Sub-Servicer and
Trustee or Certificateholders. Any Sub-Servicing Agreement that may be entered
into and any other transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans
involving a Sub-Servicer in its capacity as such and not as an originator shall
be deemed to be between the Sub-Servicer and the Servicer alone, and the Trustee
and Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no
claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the
Sub-Servicer.
Section 5.06 Termination of Sub-Servicing Agreement. If the Servicer
shall for any reason no longer be the Servicer hereunder (including by reason of
any Event of Default), the Servicer shall thereupon terminate each Sub-Servicing
Agreement that may have been entered into, and the Trustee, its designee or the
successor servicer and the Trustee shall not be deemed to have assumed any of
the Servicer's interest therein or to have replaced the Servicer as a party to
any such Sub-Servicing Agreement.
Section 5.07 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments. Continuously from
the date hereof until the principal and interest on all Mortgage Loans are paid
in full, the Servicer will proceed diligently to collect all payments due under
each of the Mortgage Loans when the same shall become due and payable; provided,
however, that the Servicer may elect, to the extent consistent with Accepted
Servicing Practices, to waive any late payment charge and shall, to the extent
such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement, follow such collection
procedures as it follows with respect to conventional mortgage loans held in its
own portfolio. Any such arrangements shall not diminish or otherwise affect the
Servicer's obligation to make Advances pursuant to Section 6.03.
Section 5.08 Establishment of Collection Account; Deposit in Collection
Account. With respect to all of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall segregate
and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to a Mortgage Loan separate
and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and
maintain one or more Collection Accounts for the benefit of the
Certificateholders (collectively, the "Collection Account") which are Eligible
Accounts, in the form of a trust account, in the name of "Wachovia Bank, N.A.,
as Trustee, in trust for and for the benefit of the Certificateholders of
Multi-Class Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as
Servicer, Chase Mortgage Finance Corporation, Series 2005-S2 - Collection
Account." Such Collection Account shall be established with a commercial bank, a
savings bank or a savings and loan association. The Servicer may invest, or
cause the institution maintaining the Collection Account to invest, moneys in
the Collection Account in Eligible Investments, which shall mature not later
than two Business Days preceding the Distribution Date next following the date
of such investment and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity.
All income and gain realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit
of the Servicer as additional compensation and shall be subject to its
withdrawal or order from time to time. The amount of any losses incurred in
respect of any such investments (to the extent not offset by income from other
such investments) shall be deposited in the Collection Account by the Servicer
out of its own funds immediately as realized; provided, however, that if the
Trustee becomes the Servicer, the Trustee shall not be required to deposit the
amount of any loss incurred prior to it becoming the Servicer.
The Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the
Collection Account on a daily basis (and not later than the second Business Day
following receipt), and retain therein:
(i) All payments which were received after the Cut-off Date on
account of principal of the Mortgage Loans (other than the principal
portion of Monthly Payments due on or before the Cut-off Date), and all
Principal Prepayments collected on or after the Cut-off Date;
64
(ii) All payments which were received after the Cut-off Date
on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans (net of the Servicing
Fee) (other than the interest portion of Monthly Payments due on or
before the Cut-off Date);
(iii) Any Subsequent Recovery or Net Liquidation Proceeds;
(iv) All Insurance Proceeds received by the Servicer under any
title, hazard or other insurance policy, including amounts required to
be deposited pursuant to Sections 5.16 and 5.20, other than proceeds to
be held in the Escrow Account or applied to the restoration or repair
of the Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the
case of a Co-op Loan) or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with
the Servicer's normal servicing procedures or otherwise applied or held
as required by applicable law;
(v) All awards or settlements in respect of condemnation
proceedings affecting any Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged
Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan), which are not released to the
Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicer's normal servicing
procedures;
(vi) All Repurchase Proceeds;
(vii) All Advances made by the Servicer pursuant to Section
6.03;
(viii) All amounts representing revenues under the insurance
provided pursuant
to Section 5.19 to the extent of any losses borne by any
Certificateholder;
(ix) All revenues from any Mortgaged Property (or Underlying
Mortgaged Property in the case of a Co-op Loan) acquired by the
Servicer by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure net of any
Servicing Advances with respect to such Mortgaged Property (or
Underlying Mortgaged Property in the case of a Co-op Loan); and
(x) Any other amounts required to be deposited therein
pursuant to this Agreement.
The Servicer shall maintain accounting records on a Mortgage Loan by
Mortgage Loan basis with respect to the Collection Account. The Servicer shall
give notice to the Trustee, any Paying Agent, the Depositor and each Rating
Agency of any change in the location of the Collection Account, prior to the use
thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Monthly Payment or
any portion thereof shall be permitted to remain in the Collection Account for
more than 12 months. Any Monthly Payment or any portion thereof that has
remained in the Collection Account for 12 months shall be deemed a Principal
Prepayment and distributed to Certificateholders pursuant to the provisions of
this Agreement on the Distribution Date immediately following the end of such 12
month period.
Section 5.09 Permitted Withdrawals from the Collection Account. The
Servicer may, from time to time, withdraw funds from the Collection Account for
the following purposes:
(a) to reimburse itself for Advances made pursuant to Section 6.03
(including amounts to reimburse the related Sub-Servicer for advances made
pursuant to the applicable Sub-Servicing Agreement), the Servicer's and the
related Sub-Servicer's right to receive reimbursement pursuant to this subclause
(i) being limited to amounts received on particular Mortgage Loans which
represent Late Collections (net of the Servicing Fees) with respect to those
particular Mortgage Loans;
(b) to pay itself the Servicing Fee;
65
(c) to reimburse itself for unreimbursed Servicing Advances, or to pay
the related Sub-Servicer any unreimbursed Servicing Advances, the Servicer's
right to receive reimbursement or make payments to the Sub-Servicer pursuant to
this subclause (c) with respect to any Mortgage Loan being limited to related
Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and condemnation
awards;
(d) to reimburse itself (or the related Sub-Servicer) or the Depositor
for expenses incurred by and recoverable by or reimbursable to it pursuant to
Section 5.01 or 5.16;
(e) to reimburse itself (or the related Sub-Servicer) for any
Nonrecoverable Advances;

the manner provided for herein;
(h) to make payments to itself or others pursuant to any provision of
this Agreement, and to clear and terminate the Collection Account upon the
termination of this Agreement; and
(i) to withdraw amounts deposited in error.
Section 5.10 Establishment of Escrow Account; Deposits in Escrow
Account. With respect to those Mortgage Loans on which the Servicer or any
Sub-Servicer collects Escrow Payments, if any, the Servicer shall, and shall
cause any Sub-Servicer to, segregate and hold all funds collected and received
pursuant to each such Mortgage Loan which constitute Escrow Payments separate
and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and
maintain one or more Escrow Accounts, in the form of trust accounts. Such Escrow
Accounts shall be established with a commercial bank, a mutual savings bank or a
savings and loan association the deposits of which are insured by the FDIC in a
manner which shall provide maximum available insurance thereunder, and which may
be drawn on by the Servicer. The Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee of
the location of any Escrow Account, and of any change thereof, prior to the use
thereof. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to require the Servicer to
collect Escrow Payments in the absence of a provision in the related Mortgage
requiring such collection.
The Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, in any Escrow
Account or Accounts on a daily basis, and retain therein, (i) all Escrow
Payments collected on account of any Mortgage Loans serviced by the Servicer,
for the purpose of effecting timely payment of any such items as required under
the terms of this Agreement and (ii) all amounts representing proceeds of any
hazard insurance policy which are to be applied to the restoration or repair of
any Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op
Loan). The Servicer shall make withdrawals therefrom only to effect such
payments as are required under this Agreement, and for such other purposes as
are set forth in Section 5.11. The Servicer shall be entitled to retain any
interest paid on funds deposited in the Escrow Account by the depository
institution other than interest on escrowed funds required by law to be paid to
the related Mortgagor and, to the extent required by law, the Servicer shall pay
interest on escrowed funds to the related Mortgagor notwithstanding that the
Escrow Account is non-interest-bearing or that interest paid thereon is
insufficient for such purposes.
66
Section 5.11 Permitted Withdrawals from Escrow Account. Withdrawals
from any Escrow Account or Accounts may be made by a Servicer only (i) to effect
timely payments of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, Standard
Hazard Policy premiums, or other items constituting Escrow Payments for the
related Mortgage, (ii) to reimburse the Servicer for any Servicing Advance made
by the Servicer, with respect to a related Mortgage Loan but only from amounts
received on the related Mortgage Loan which represent late payments or
collections of Escrow Payments thereunder, (iii) to refund to any Mortgagor any
funds found to be in excess of the amounts required under the terms of the
related Mortgage Loan or under applicable law, (iv) for application to
restoration or repair of the property subject to the related Mortgage, (v) to
pay to the Servicer, or to the Mortgagor to the extent required by law, any
interest paid on the funds deposited in the Escrow Account, (vi) to clear and
terminate the Escrow Account on the termination of this Agreement or (vii) to
withdraw amounts deposited in error.
Section 5.12 Payment of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges. With
respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall maintain, or cause to be
maintained, accurate records reflecting any delinquencies or nonpayments with
regard to taxes, assessments and Standard Hazard Policy premiums. The Servicer
assumes full responsibility for ensuring the payment of all such bills and shall
effect payments of all such bills irrespective of each Mortgagor's faithful
performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and
shall make advances from its own funds to effect such payments.
Section 5.13 Transfer of Accounts. The Servicer may transfer the
Collection Account or Escrow Account to an Eligible Account maintained with a
different depository institution from time to time.
Section 5.14 [Reserved].
Section 5.15 Maintenance of the Primary Insurance Policies. The
Servicer shall not take, or permit any related Sub-Servicer to take, any action
which would result in non-coverage under any applicable Primary Insurance Policy
of any loss which, but for the actions of the Servicer or Sub-Servicer, would
have been covered thereunder. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, to
the extent coverage is available and until the Loan-to-Value Ratio of the
related Mortgage Loan is reduced to 80%, the Servicer shall keep or cause to be
kept in full force and effect each such Primary Insurance Policy in an amount
equal to the amount by which the unpaid principal balance of the related
Mortgage Loan exceeds 75% of the value (as described in the definition of
Loan-to-Value Ratio) of the related Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged
Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan). The Servicer shall not cancel or refuse
to renew any such Primary Insurance Policy or consent to any related
Sub-Servicer canceling or refusing to renew any such Primary Insurance Policy
applicable to a Mortgage Loan subserviced by it, that is in effect at the date
of the initial issuance of the Certificates and is required to be kept in force
hereunder unless the replacement Primary Insurance Policy for such canceled or
non-renewed policy is maintained with an insurer whose claims-paying ability is
rated at least as high as the original insurer or is acceptable to each Rating
Agency as confirmed in writing by each such Rating Agency, unless otherwise
required by law.
Section 5.16 Maintenance of Standard Hazard Policies.
(a) The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan
(other than a Co-op Loan) a Standard Hazard Policy with extended coverage as is
prudent in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which
is equal to the greater of (i) the lesser of (A) 100% of the maximum insurable
value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan or (B) the principal
balance owing on such Mortgage Loan, or (ii) such amount required to prevent the
Mortgagor or mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer. If the Mortgaged Property is
in an area identified at the time of origination in the Federal Register by the
Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such
flood insurance has been made available) the Servicer will cause to be
maintained a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current
guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration with a generally acceptable
insurance carrier, in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of
(i) the outstanding Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan, (ii) the full
insurable value or (iii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available
under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended. The Servicer shall
also maintain on property acquired upon foreclosure, or by deed in lieu of
67
foreclosure, of any Mortgage Loan, fire and hazard insurance with extended
coverage in an amount which is not less than the lesser of (i) the outstanding
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan or (ii) the maximum insurable value of
the improvements which are a part of such property, liability insurance, and, to
the extent available, flood insurance in an amount as provided above. Any
amounts collected by the Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to
be applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the related
Mortgage or property acquired in liquidation of the Mortgage Loan, or released
to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicer's normal servicing procedures)
shall be deposited, subject to applicable law, in the Collection Account. It is
understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance need be
required by the Servicer of any Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in
respect of a Mortgage Loan, other than pursuant to such applicable laws and
regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such
additional insurance. All such Standard Hazard Policies and other policies shall
be endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses with loss payable to the Servicer or
its designee. Any such Standard Hazard Policies or other policies may be in the
form of blanket policies; provided, however, that in the event of any claim
arising in connection with a hazard loss the Servicer shall be obligated, in the
case of blanket insurance policies, to deposit in the Collection Account any
amount not payable under such blanket policy because of a deductible clause in
such policy and not otherwise payable under an individual policy. The Servicer
shall not interfere with the Mortgagor's freedom of choice in selecting either
his insurance carrier or agent; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not
accept any such insurance policies from insurance companies unless such
companies are acceptable insurers in the discretion of the Servicer.
(b) Any cost incurred by the Servicer in maintaining any of the
foregoing insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating monthly
distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the amount owing under the
Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit.
Such costs (other than the costs of maintaining a blanket hazard insurance
policy not attributable to a specific Mortgaged Property) shall be recoverable
by the Servicer from the Mortgagor or out of Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent
Recoveries or Liquidation Proceeds or to the extent permitted by Section 5.09.
Section 5.17 [Reserved].
Section 5.18 [Reserved].
Section 5.19 Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance. The
Servicer shall maintain, at its own expense, a blanket fidelity bond and an
errors and omissions insurance policy, with broad coverage with responsible
companies on all officers, employees or other persons acting on behalf of the
Servicer in any capacity with regard to the Mortgage Loans to handle funds,
money, documents and papers relating to the Mortgage Loans. Any such fidelity
bond and errors and omissions insurance shall protect and insure the Servicer
against losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and
omissions and negligent acts of such persons and shall be maintained at a level
acceptable to FNMA. No provision of this Section 5.19 requiring such fidelity
bond and errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the Servicer
from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. Upon request of
the Trustee, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to the Trustee a
certification evidencing coverage under such fidelity bond and insurance policy.
Promptly upon receipt of any notice from the surety or the insurer that such
fidelity bond or insurance policy has been terminated or modified in a
materially adverse manner, the Servicer shall notify the Trustee and each Rating
Agency of any such termination or modification.
68
Section 5.20 Collections under Insurance Policies; Enforcement of
Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.
(a) In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of
the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer agrees to present, on behalf of itself, the
Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any Standard
Hazard Policies and, in this regard, to take such reasonable action as shall be
necessary to permit recovery under any insurance policies. Pursuant to Section
5.08, the Servicer shall deposit Insurance Proceeds in the Collection Account.
(b) When any Mortgaged Property (or stock allocated to a dwelling unit,
in the case of a Co-op Loan) is conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Servicer shall
enforce any due-on-sale clause contained in any Mortgage Note or Mortgage, to
the extent permitted by such Mortgage Note or Mortgage, applicable law and
governmental regulations. Subject to the foregoing, the Servicer is authorized
to take or enter into an assumption or substitution agreement from or with the
Person to whom such property has been or is about to be conveyed. In connection
with such assumption or substitution, the Servicer shall apply such underwriting
standards and follow such practices and procedures as shall be normal and usual
and as it applies to mortgage loans owned solely by it.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this
Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any
other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any conveyance by the
Mortgagor of the Mortgaged Property (or stock allocated to a dwelling unit, in
the case of a Co-op Loan) or any assumption of a Mortgage Loan by operation of
law which the Servicer in good faith determines it may be restricted by law from
preventing, for any reason whatsoever.
(c) Subject to the Servicer's duty to enforce any due-on-sale clause to
the effect set forth in Section 5.20(b), in any case in which a Mortgaged
Property (or stock allocated to a dwelling unit, in the case of a Co-op Loan) is
to be conveyed to a Person by a Mortgagor, and such Person is to enter into an
assumption agreement or modification agreement or supplement to the Mortgage
Note or Mortgage, the Servicer shall so notify the Trustee by forwarding to the
Trustee the original copy of such assumption or substitution agreement, which
copy shall be added by the Trustee to the related Mortgage File and shall, for
all purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as
all other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof. In connection
with any such assumption, modification agreement or substitution agreement, the
interest rate of the related Mortgage Note shall not be changed, the principal
amount of the Mortgage Note shall not be increased or decreased and the maturity
of the Mortgage Note shall not be extended, nor shall it be shortened by more
than one year. Any fee collected by the Servicer for entering into an assumption
or substitution of liability agreement with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall
be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation.
Section 5.21 Income and Realization from Defaulted Mortgage Loans. The
Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, shall foreclose upon or otherwise comparably
convert the ownership of Mortgaged Properties (or stock allocated to a dwelling
unit, in the case of a Co-op Loan) securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come
into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be
made for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 5.07, shall
manage, conserve, protect and operate such Mortgaged Properties (or stock
allocated to a dwelling unit, in the case of a Co-op Loan) for the purposes of
their prompt disposition and sale, and shall dispose of such Mortgaged
Properties (or stock allocated to a dwelling unit, in the case of a Co-op Loan)
on such terms and conditions as it deems in the best interests of the
Certificateholders. The Servicer shall sell such property prior to the close of
the third calendar year beginning after the year in which such foreclosure or
conversion occurs or such longer period as would not prevent such Mortgaged
Property (or stock allocated to a dwelling unit, in the case of a Co-op Loan)
from constituting "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section
860G(a)(8) of the Code. The Servicer will ensure that no Mortgaged Property
shall be held, rented or otherwise used in such a manner or pursuant to any
terms that would (i) cause such Mortgaged Property to fail to qualify as
"foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or
(ii) subject any REMIC Pool to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the
income earned on such Mortgaged Property, including any taxes imposed by reason
of Section 860F or 860G(c) of the Code. In connection with such activities, the
Servicer shall follow such practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary
69
or advisable, as shall be normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing
activities, including its management of foreclosed properties for a temporary
period as contemplated herein. The foregoing is subject to the provisions of
Section 5.28 of this Agreement and to the proviso that the Servicer shall not be
required to expend its own funds in connection with any management, foreclosure
or towards the restoration of any property unless it shall determine that such
management, restoration or foreclosure will increase any Subsequent Recoveries
or Liquidation Proceeds of the Mortgage Loan to Certificateholders after
reimbursement to itself for such expenses (respecting which it shall have
priority for purposes of withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to
Section 5.09). The Servicer shall be permitted to earn income with respect to
any Mortgaged Properties (or stock allocated to a dwelling unit, in the case of
a Co-op Loan), provided such income does not constitute "net income from
foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(c) of the Code. The
income earned from the management of such Mortgaged Properties (or stock
allocated to a dwelling unit, in the case of a Co-op Loan), net of reimbursement
to the Servicer for expenses (including any taxes) incurred in connection with
such management, shall be applied to the payment of principal of and interest on
the related defaulted Mortgage Loans (with interest accruing and principal
amortizing as though such Mortgage Loans were still current) and all such income
shall be deemed, for all purposes in this Agreement, to be payments on account
of principal and interest on the related Mortgage Notes and shall be deposited
into the Collection Account. To the extent the income received is in excess of
the amount attributable to amortizing principal and accrued interest at the Net
Mortgage Rate on the related Mortgage Loan, such excess shall be deposited in
the Collection Account.
The Servicer shall take into account the existence of any hazardous
substances, hazardous wastes or solid wastes, as such terms are defined in the
Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act, as amended,
the Resources Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, as amended, or other
federal, state or local environmental legislation, on a Mortgaged Property (or
Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan) in determining
whether to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of such
property. To the extent that the Servicer has actual knowledge of any such
substance or waste, it shall consult with the Trustee regarding the appropriate
course of action. The Servicer shall not institute foreclosure actions with
respect to a property containing substance or waste as described above if it
reasonably believes that such action would not be consistent with its servicing
standards, and in no event shall the Servicer manage, operate or take any other
action with respect thereto which the Servicer in good faith believes will
result in "clean-up" or other liability under applicable law. The net income
from the rental or sale of a REO Property shall be deposited in the Collection
Account within two (2) Business Days after receipt thereof by the Servicer.
The Servicer may enter into a special servicing agreement with an
unaffiliated holder of 100% Percentage Interest of the Class of Class B
Certificates then outstanding having the highest numerical class designation or
a holder of a class of securities representing interests in such Class B
Certificate and/or other subordinate mortgage pass-through certificates, such
agreement to be (i) substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto or (ii)
subject to each Rating Agency's acknowledgment that the ratings of the
Certificates in effect immediately prior to the entering into of such agreement
would not be qualified, downgraded or withdrawn and the Certificates would not
be placed on credit review status (except for possible upgrading) as a result of
such agreement. Any such agreement may contain provisions whereby such holder
may instruct the Servicer to commence or delay foreclosure proceedings with
respect to delinquent Mortgage Loans and will contain provisions for the deposit
of cash by the holder that would be available for distribution to
Certificateholders if Liquidation Proceeds are less than they otherwise may have
been had the Servicer acted in accordance with its normal procedures.
70
Section 5.22 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.
(a) Upon becoming aware of the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or
upon the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be
made in a manner customary for such purposes, the Servicer shall immediately
notify the Trustee (if the Trustee holds the related Mortgage File) by a
certification (which certification shall include a statement to the effect that
all amounts received or to be received in connection with such payment which are
required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 5.08 have
been or will be so deposited) of a Servicing Officer and shall request delivery
to it of the Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such certification and request,
within five Business Days the Trustee shall release the related Mortgage File to
the Servicer and execute and deliver to the Servicer the request for
reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or release or satisfaction of mortgage or
such other instruments releasing the lien of the Mortgage as have been provided
by the Servicer to the Trustee, together with the Mortgage Note with written
evidence of cancellation thereon, and the Trustee shall have no further
responsibility with respect to said Mortgage File. Upon any such payment in
full, or the receipt of such notification, the Servicer is authorized to procure
from the Trustee under the deed of trust which secured the Mortgage Note, if
any, a deed of full reconveyance covering the property encumbered by such deed
of trust, which assignment of deed of trust, except as otherwise provided by any
applicable law, shall be recorded by the Servicer in the appropriate land
records in the jurisdiction in which the assignment of deed of trust is
recorded, or, as the case may be, to procure from the Trustee an instrument of
satisfaction or, if the Mortgagor so requests, an assignment without recourse,
which deed of reconveyance, instrument of satisfaction or assignment shall be
delivered by the Servicer to the Person or Persons entitled thereto. No expenses
incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of
reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Collection Account or to the Trustee.
(b) From time to time as is appropriate for the servicing or
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee a
certificate of a Servicing Officer requesting that possession of the Mortgage
File be released to the Servicer and certifying as to the reason for such
release and that such release will not invalidate any insurance coverage
provided in respect of the Mortgage Loan under any of the insurance policies
required by this Agreement. With such certificate, the Servicer shall require
that the Trustee release the Mortgage File, and, within five Business Days, the
Trustee shall deliver the Mortgage File or any document therein to the Servicer.
The Servicer shall cause each Mortgage File so released to be returned to the
Trustee when the need therefor by the Servicer no longer exists, unless (i) the
Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Net Liquidation Proceeds relating to
the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Collection Account or (ii) the
Mortgage File has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other
public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal
action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property (or
stock allocated to a dwelling unit, in the case of a Co-op Loan) either
judicially or non-judicially, and the Servicer has delivered to the Trustee a
certificate of a Servicing Officer in the form of Exhibit L hereto certifying as
to the name and address of the Person to which such Mortgage File was delivered
and the purpose or purposes of such delivery.
(c) Upon written request of the Servicer, the Trustee shall execute and
deliver to the Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee's sale or
other documents prepared by and delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee
necessary to the foreclosure or trustee's sale in respect of a Mortgaged
Property (or stock allocated to a dwelling unit, in the case of a Co-op Loan) or
to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the
Mortgage Note or Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any
other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise
available at law or in equity. Together with such documents or pleadings, the
Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate of a Servicing Officer
requesting that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee and
certifying as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required and that
the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not invalidate any
insurance coverage under the insurance policies required under this Agreement or
invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except for the
termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee's sale.
71
Section 5.23 Servicing and Other Compensation. The Servicer, as
compensation for its activities hereunder, shall be entitled to receive, on or
prior to each Distribution Date, the amounts provided for as the Servicing Fee
and as reimbursement for Nonrecoverable Advances, Servicing Advances and
reimbursement for Advances, all as specified by Section 5.09. The amount of
compensation or reimbursement provided for shall be accounted for on a Mortgage
Loan-by-Mortgage Loan basis.
Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees,
prepayment fees and late payment charges shall be retained by the Servicer, to
the extent permitted by applicable law. The Servicer shall be required to pay
all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities
hereunder (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee and any Sub-Servicer)
and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically
provided in Sections 5.09 and 5.21.
Section 5.24 1934 Act Reports.
(a) The Servicer shall, on behalf of the Trust, make all filings
("Periodic Reports") required to be made by the Depositor or the Trust (other
than the filings relating to the closing of this transaction) with respect to
the Class A Certificates, the Class M Certificates, the Class B-1 Certificates
and the Class B-2 Certificates pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the "Exchange Act") and the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") thereunder. In no event shall the
Trustee or any agent of the Trustee including any Paying Agent be obligated or
responsible for preparing, executing, filing or delivering in respect of the
Trust Fund or on behalf of another person, either (A) any report or filing
required or permitted by the SEC to be prepared, executed, filed or delivered by
or in respect of the Trust Fund or another person, or (B) any certification in
respect of any such report or filing. The Form 10-K filing required to be made
by the Trust shall also include a certification complying with the Section 302
Requirements, which shall be signed by the senior officer of the Depositor in
charge of securitization.
(b) Within thirty (30) days after the beginning of the first fiscal
year during which the Trust's obligation to file Periodic Reports pursuant to
the Exchange Act shall have been suspended, the Depositor may prepare, or cause
to be prepared, a notice on Commission Form 15 ("Form 15") and is hereby
authorized to and shall execute such Form 15 on the Trust's behalf; provided,
however, that the Depositor shall be under no obligation to prepare such notice
if the number of Certificateholders exceeds 300. The Depositor shall file any
notice on Form 15 with the Commission in accordance with the provisions of Rule
15d-6 under the Exchange Act.
(c) Not later than 15 calendar days before the date on which the
Trust's annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with
the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission (or, if such
day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), the Servicer
will deliver to the Depositor an Officer's Certificate for the prior calendar
year substantially in the form of Exhibit N hereto.
(d) Not later than 15 calendar days before the date on which the
Trust's annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with
the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission (or, if such
day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), the Paying
Agent will deliver to the Depositor an Officer's Certificate for the prior
calendar year substantially in the form of Exhibit O hereto.
72
(e) If the Commission issues additional interpretive guidance or
promulgates additional rules or regulations, or if other changes in applicable
law occur that would require the reporting arrangements or the allocation of
responsibilities with respect thereto described in this Section 5.24 to be
conducted differently than as described, the Depositor, the Servicer and the
Trustee will reasonably cooperate to amend the provisions of this Section 5.24
in order to comply with such amended reporting requirements and such amendment
of this Section 5.24. Any such amendment shall be made in accordance with
Section 12.03 without the consent of the Certificateholders, and may result in a
change in the reports filed under the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee shall not be obligated to
enter into any amendment pursuant to this Section 5.24 that adversely affects
its obligations and immunities under this Agreement.
Section 5.25 Annual Statement as to Compliance. The Servicer will
deliver to the Depositor and the Trustee on or before March 31 of each year
beginning in 2006 or such other date in order to remain in compliance with
Section 302 Requirements, an Officers' Certificate stating, as to each signer
thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the
preceding calendar year and of performance under this Agreement has been made
under such officer's supervision, (ii) to the best of such officer's knowledge,
based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this
Agreement throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the
fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such
officer and the nature and status thereof and (iii) to the best of such
officer's knowledge, each Sub-Servicer has fulfilled its obligations under its
Sub-Servicing Agreement throughout such year, or if there has been a default in
the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to
such officer and the nature and status thereof. Copies of such statement shall
be provided to each Rating Agency by the Servicer. Copies of such statement
shall also be provided by the Servicer to any Certificateholder upon request. If
the Servicer shall fail to provide such copies and a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee is aware that the Servicer has not so provided copies, the Trustee shall
provide such copies at the Servicer's expense if the Trustee has received such
statement.
Section 5.26 Annual Independent Public Accountants' Servicing Report.
On or before March 31 of each year beginning in 2006 or such other date in order
to remain in compliance with the Section 302 Requirements, the Servicer at its
expense shall cause a nationally recognized firm of independent public
accountants (who may also render other services to the Servicer or any affiliate
thereof) which is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants to furnish a statement to the Depositor and the Trustee in
compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers.
Copies of such statement shall be provided to each Rating Agency, and, upon
request, to the Certificateholders, by the Servicer, or by the Trustee at the
Servicer's expense if the Trustee has received such statement and the Servicer
shall fail to provide such copies and the Trustee is aware that the Servicer has
not so provided copies.
Section 5.27 Access to Certain Documentation; Rights of the Depositor
in Respect of the Servicer. The Servicer shall provide access to the Trustee and
Certificateholders which are savings and loan associations, banks or insurance
companies or examiners of any federal or state banking or insurance regulatory
authority to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans if so required by
applicable regulations of any regulatory authority, such access to be afforded
subject to reimbursement for expenses without charge but only upon reasonable
request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer
designated by it. The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the
obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement. The Depositor shall not assume
any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to take action by the
Servicer and is not obligated to supervise the performance of the Servicer under
this Agreement or otherwise.
73
Section 5.28 REMIC-Related Covenants. For as long as the Trust Fund
shall exist, the Servicer and the Trustee shall act in accordance herewith to
assure continuing treatment of each REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC. In
particular:
(a) The Servicer shall not create, or permit the creation of, any
"interests" in any REMIC created hereunder within the meaning of Section 860G(a)
of the Code other than the "regular interests" in each such REMIC designated as
such in Section 2.04(a) and the "residual interest" in each such REMIC
designated as such in Section 2.04(a);
(b) As of all times as may be required by the Code, the Servicer will
ensure that substantially all of the assets of each REMIC created hereunder will
consist of "qualified mortgages" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code
and "permitted investments" as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code. The
Servicer and the Trustee, upon the direction of the Servicer, also will maintain
records that are sufficient to indicate the compliance of each REMIC created
hereunder with applicable requirements of the Code (and applicable Proposed,
Temporary or final Treasury Regulations) relating to the assets held by such
REMIC. Further, the Servicer shall not permit and the Trustee shall not accept
the transfer or substitution of any Mortgage Loan other than pursuant to Section
3.03, 5.01 or 5.21 of this Agreement, and the Servicer shall, in any case, not
permit substitution unless the Servicer and the Trustee have received an Opinion
of Counsel, which will not be an expense of any REMIC created hereunder, that
such transfer or substitution would not adversely affect the REMIC status of any
REMIC created hereunder or would not otherwise be prohibited by this Agreement;
(c) The Servicer shall ensure that no REMIC created hereunder receives
a fee or other compensation for services and that no REMIC created hereunder
receives any income from assets other than "qualified mortgages" within the
meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or "permitted investments" within the
meaning of Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code, and shall take whatever action it
deems necessary to avoid any material tax imposed by the Code on any REMIC
created hereunder;
(d) The Trustee shall not sell or permit the sale of all or any portion
of the Mortgage Loans or of any Eligible Investment unless such sale is as a
result of a repurchase of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement or the
Trustee has received an Opinion of Counsel, which will not be an expense of any
REMIC created hereunder or the Trustee, to the effect that such sale (i) is
pursuant to a "qualified liquidation" as defined in Section 860F(a)(4) of the
Code and as described in Section 11.01 hereof, or (ii) would not be treated as a
"prohibited transaction" within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code
that results in the realization of a material amount of gain or loss for federal
income tax purposes;
(e) The Trustee shall not accept any contribution to any REMIC created
hereunder after the Startup Day without an Opinion of Counsel (which shall not
be an expense of the Trustee) that such contribution is included within the
exceptions provided in Section 860G(d)(2) of the Code and, therefore, will not
be subject to the tax imposed by Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code; and
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the
Servicer and the Trustee, at the direction of the Servicer, shall take any other
action or refuse to take any action otherwise required (including adjusting the
Purchase Price for any Mortgage Loan) where the Servicer deems such action or
inaction reasonably necessary to ensure the REMIC status of each REMIC created
hereunder under the Code and applicable regulations or to avoid the imposition
of any material tax liability on any REMIC created hereunder that will affect
amounts distributable to the Certificateholders.
74
(g) In the event that any applicable federal, state or local tax,
including interest, penalties or assessments, additional amounts or additions to
tax, is imposed on any REMIC created hereunder, such tax shall be treated in the
same manner as a Realized Loss and shall be charged against amounts otherwise
distributable to the Holders of the Certificates, except as provided in the last
sentence of this Section 5.28 (g). The Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been
appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent shall withdraw from the
Collection Account sufficient funds to pay or provide for the payment of, and to
actually pay, such tax as is estimated to be legally owed by (but such
authorization shall not prevent the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been
appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent from contesting, at the expense
of the Trust Fund (other than as a consequence of a breach of its obligations
under this Agreement), any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and withholding
payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such
proceedings). The Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section
4.05, the Paying Agent is hereby authorized to and shall segregate, into a
separate non-interest bearing account, the net income from any "prohibited
transaction" under Code Section 860F(a), the amount of any taxable contribution
to any REMIC created hereunder after the Startup Day that is subject to tax
under Code Section 860G(d), and 35% of any estimated "net income from
foreclosure property" under Section 860G(c) and use such income or amount, to
the extent necessary, to pay such tax. To the extent that any such tax is paid
to the Internal Revenue Service or applicable state or local tax authorities,
the Trustee or a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying
Agent shall retain an equal amount from future amounts otherwise distributable
to the Holder of the Class A-R Certificate and shall distribute such retained
amounts to the Holders of the other Classes of Certificates, to the extent they
remain outstanding, until they are fully reimbursed for any amount of such taxes
previously charged to the then Holder of the Class A-R Certificate. Neither the
Trustee nor the Servicer shall be responsible for any taxes imposed on any REMIC
created hereunder except to the extent such taxes arise as a consequence of a
breach of their respective obligations under this Agreement.

ARTICLE VI
PAYMENTS TO THE CERTIFICATEHOLDERS
Section 6.01 Distributions.
(a) On each Distribution Date, the Paying Agent shall apply an amount
equal to the Available Distribution Amount in the following order of priority:
(i) to the Non-PO Class A Certificateholders, all
distributable amounts up to the sum of (A) the Aggregate Class A
Interest Accrual Amount and (B) the Aggregate Class A Interest
Shortfall;

79
(f) Based upon the information received from the Servicer, as provided
in Section 6.02, the Paying Agent shall make all calculations necessary to make
the distributions described in this Section 6.01. All distributions made to
Certificateholders of any Class on each Distribution Date will be made to the
Certificateholders of the respective Class of record on the next preceding
Record Date, except that the final distribution with respect to each Class shall
be made as provided in the forms of Certificates. All distributions made to
Certificateholders shall be based on the Percentage Interest of the Class
represented by their respective Certificates, and shall be made either by
transfer in immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank
or other financial or depository institution having appropriate facilities
therefor, if such Holder has so notified the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has
been appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, in writing at least 10
Business Days prior to the first Distribution Date for which distribution by
wire transfer is to be made and such Holder's Certificates of such Class in the
aggregate evidence an original denomination of not less than $5,000,000 or such
Holder holds a 100% Percentage Interest of such Class or, if not, by check
mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as it appears on the
Certificate Register, except that the final distribution in retirement of the
Certificates will be made only upon presentation and surrender of the
Certificates at the office specified in the final Distribution Notice. If on any
Determination Date, the Servicer determines that there are no Mortgage Loans
outstanding and no other funds or assets in the Trust Fund other than the funds
in the Certificate Account, the Trustee or if a Paying Agent has been appointed
under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent shall promptly send the final distribution
notice to each Certificateholder specifying the manner in which the final
distribution will be made.

of any Compensating Interest Shortfalls on such Distribution Date; and
(xv) the number of Mortgage Loans with respect to which a
reduction in the Mortgage Rate has occurred pursuant to the Relief Act,
as well as the amount of interest not required to be paid with respect
to any such Mortgage Loans during the related Due Period as a result of
such reductions; both in the aggregate and for each Class of
Certificates.
The Paying Agent's responsibility for sending the above information to
the Certificateholders is limited to the availability, timeliness and accuracy
of the information derived from the Servicer which shall be provided as required
in this Section 6.02(a).
Upon reasonable advance notice in writing if required by federal
regulation, the Servicer will provide to each Certificateholder which is a
savings and loan association, bank or insurance company certain reports and
access during business hours to information and documentation regarding the
Mortgage Loans sufficient to permit such Certificateholder to comply with
applicable regulations of regulatory authorities with respect to investment in
the Certificates; provided, that the Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed
by each such Certificateholder for the Servicer's actual expenses incurred in
providing such reports and access.
(b) The Servicer shall cause to be prepared, and the Servicer or the
Trustee, as required by applicable law, shall file, any and all tax returns,
information statements or other filings required to be delivered to
Certificateholders and any governmental taxing authority pursuant to any
applicable law with respect to the Trust Fund and the transactions contemplated
hereby (the Servicer or the Trustee may, at its option but with the consent of
the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, appoint an
organization which regularly engages in the preparation and filing of such
documents on a continuous basis for profit and which represents itself to be
expert in such matters) and the Servicer shall maintain a record of the
information necessary for the application of Section 860E(e) of the Code and
shall make such information available as required by Section 860D(a)(6) of the
Code; provided, however, that the Servicer shall notify the Trustee of the
Trustee's obligation to make any such filings and that any fees of the
organization appointed as provided above shall be paid by the Servicer; and
provided further that if an organization is employed, as described above, to
prepare and file any such filings, neither the Trustee nor the Servicer shall be
liable for any errors by such organization.
81
Section 6.03 Advances by the Servicer. If, on any Determination Date,
the Servicer determines that any Monthly Payments due on the immediately
preceding Due Date have not been received, the Servicer shall, unless it
determines in its sole discretion that such amounts will not be recoverable from
Late Collections, Liquidation Proceeds or otherwise, make an Advance on or
before two Business Days prior to the related Distribution Date in an amount
equal to the amount of such delinquent Monthly Payments, after adjustment of any
delinquent interest payment for the Servicing Fee. For purposes of this Section
6.03, the delinquent Monthly Payments referred to in the preceding sentence
shall be deemed to include an amount equal to the Monthly Payments that would
have been due on Mortgage Loans which have been foreclosed or otherwise
terminated and in connection with which the Servicer acquired and continues to
own the Mortgaged Properties on behalf of the Certificateholders. If the
Servicer makes an Advance, it shall on or prior to two Business Days prior to
such Distribution Date either (i) deposit in the Collection Account an amount
equal to such Advance, (ii) cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records
of the Collection Account that funds in such account being held for future
distribution or withdrawal have been, as permitted by this Section 6.03, used by
the Servicer to make such Advance or (iii) make Advances in the form of any
combination of clauses (i) and (ii) aggregating the amount of such Advance. Any
funds being held in the Collection Account for future distribution to
Certificateholders and so used pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) above shall be
replaced by the Servicer from its own funds by deposit into the Collection
Account on or before any subsequent Distribution Date to the extent that funds
in the Collection Account on such Distribution Date shall be less than the
amount of payments required to be made to Certificateholders on such
Distribution Date. Any such Advance shall be included with the distribution to
the Certificateholders on the related Distribution Date. If the Servicer
determines not to make a Nonrecoverable Advance, it shall on the related
Determination Date furnish to the Trustee, any co-trustee, the Paying Agent and
each Rating Agency notice of such determination. The Servicer shall be entitled
to be reimbursed from the Collection Account for all Advances and Nonrecoverable
Advances as provided in Section 5.09. If on any Distribution Date, the Servicer
has not made any Advance due on such Distribution Date, the Backup Advancer
shall make such Advance on such Distribution Date. The Backup Advancer shall be
entitled to reimbursement for any Advances it has made in the same manner as the
Servicer is entitled to reimbursement for Advances as set forth in this
Agreement. Additionally, the Servicer shall, from its own funds, compensate the
Backup Advancer for any Advance required to be made by the Backup Advancer at
the current "prime" lending rate of Chase plus 2.00% per annum from the date
such Advance was made up to the date the Backup Advancer is reimbursed.
Section 6.04 Allocation of Realized Losses.
(a) Prior to each Determination Date, the Servicer shall determine (i)
the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred during the related
Principal Prepayment Period; (ii) whether and to what extent such Realized
Losses constitute Excess Losses; and (iii) the respective portions of such
Realized Losses allocable to interest and to principal.
82
(b) The principal portion of any Realized Losses other than Excess
Losses shall be allocated as follows: first, to the Class B-5 Certificates until
the Outstanding Certificate Principal Balance of the Class B-5 Certificates has
been reduced to zero; second, to the Class B-4 Certificates until the
Outstanding Certificate Principal Balance of the Class B-4 Certificates has been
reduced to zero; third, to Class B-3 Certificates until the Outstanding
Certificate Principal Balance of the Class B-3 Certificates has been reduced to
zero; fourth, to the Class B-2 Certificates until the Outstanding Certificate
Principal Balance of the Class B-2 Certificates has been reduced to zero; fifth,
to the Class B-1 Certificates until the Outstanding Certificate Principal
Balance of the Class B-1 Certificates has been reduced to zero; sixth, to the
Class M Certificates until the Outstanding Certificate Principal Balance of the
Class M Certificates has been reduced to zero; and seventh, to the Non-PO Class
A Certificates on a pro rata basis until the Outstanding Certificate Principal
Balance of the Non-PO Class A Certificates has been reduced to zero; provided,
however, that any portion of any Realized Loss that would otherwise be allocated
to the Class A-13, Class A-17 or Class A-19 Certificates in accordance with this
paragraph will instead be allocated (i) in the case of the Class A-13
Certificates, to the Class A-14 Certificates until the Outstanding Certificate
Principal Balance of the Class A-14 Certificates has been reduced to zero, (ii)
in the case of the Class A-17 Certificates, to the Class A-18 Certificates until
the Outstanding Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-18 Certificates has
been reduced to zero and (iii) in the case of the Class A-19 Certificates, to
the Class A-20 Certificates until the Outstanding Certificate Principal Balance
of the Class A-20 Certificates has been reduced to zero; provided further,
however, that if a Realized Loss occurs with respect to a Discount Mortgage Loan
(A) the amount of such Realized Loss equal to the product of (i) the amount of
such Realized Loss and (ii) the PO Percentage with respect to such Discount
Mortgage Loan will be allocated to Class A-P Certificates and (B) the remainder
of such Realized Loss will be allocated as described above. The principal
portion of any Excess Losses shall be allocated among all Classes of
Certificates on a pro rata basis; provided, however, that the applicable PO
Percentage of any Excess Losses on the Discount Mortgage Loans shall be
allocated to Class A-P Certificates.
(c) As used herein, an allocation of a Realized Loss on a "pro rata
basis" among two or more specified Classes of Certificates means an allocation
on a pro rata basis, among the various Classes so specified, to each such Class
of Certificates on the basis of their Outstanding Certificate Principal Balances
(or, in the case of Class A-29 Certificates, the lesser of (i) the Original
Certificate Principal Balance of such Class and (ii) the Outstanding Certificate
Principal Balance of such Class) prior to giving effect to distributions to be
made on such Distribution Date. All Realized Losses and all other losses
allocated to a Class of Certificates hereunder will be allocated among the
Certificates of such Class in proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced
thereby; provided, however, that the interest portion of any Excess Loss that
would otherwise be allocated to the Class A-13, Class A-17 or Class A-19 in
accordance with this Section 6.05(c) will instead be allocated (i) in the case
of the Class A-13 Certificates, to the Class A-14 Certificates so long as the
Class A-14 Certificates are outstanding, (ii) in the case of the Class A-17
Certificates, to the Class A-18 Certificates so long as the Class A-18
Certificates are outstanding and (iii) in the case of the Class A-19
Certificates, to the Class A-20 Certificates so long as the Class A-20
Certificates are outstanding.
(d) In the event that a recovery is made with respect to any Realized
Loss, the amount of such recovery shall be treated as a Principal Prepayment and
deposited into the Collection Account and distributed on the applicable
Distribution Date.
Section 6.05 Compensating Interest; Allocation of Certain Interest
Shortfalls.
(a) Upon a Principal Prepayment of a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall
deposit into the Collection Account from its own funds, as a reduction of its
servicing compensation hereunder, an amount, if any, by which the amount of the
interest that would otherwise accrue with respect to such Mortgage Loan from the
date of prepayment to the Due Date in the related Due Period at the Net Mortgage
Rate exceeds the amount of the interest (adjusted to the Net Mortgage Rate)
collected from the Mortgagor with respect to such period (such amount,
"Compensating Interest"); provided, however, that with respect to any
Distribution Date, the Servicer's obligation to deposit any such amount is
limited to an amount equal to the product of (i) one-twelfth of 0.125% and (ii)
the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans with respect to
such Distribution Date.
83
(b) On any Distribution Date, the excess, if any, of (X) Compensating
Interest with respect to such Distribution Date over (Y) the amount deposited in
the Collection Account pursuant to (a) above for such Distribution Date shall
equal the "Compensating Interest Shortfall" with respect to such Distribution
Date. On any Distribution Date, the Compensating Interest Shortfall shall be
allocated pro rata among the outstanding Classes of Class A, Class M and Class B
Certificates based on the amount of interest to which each such Class would
otherwise be paid on such Distribution Date had there been no such Compensating
Interest Shortfall.
(c) On any Distribution Date, the interest portion of any Realized
Losses ("Realized Loss Interest Shortfall") (other than the interest portion of
Excess Losses) shall be allocated to the Class of Subordinated Certificates then
outstanding having the highest numerical class designation (for this purpose,
the Class M Certificates shall be deemed to have a lower numerical class
designation than each Class of Class B Certificates) or, if no Class of
Subordinated Certificates is then outstanding, to the Non-PO Class A
Certificates pro rata among the outstanding Classes of Non-PO Class A
Certificates based on the amount of interest to which each such Class would
otherwise be paid (or in the case of the Class A-29 Certificates, added to the
Principal Balance of such Class, prior to the Class A-29 Accretion Termination
Date) on such Distribution Date had there been no such Realized Loss Interest
Shortfall. On any Distribution Date, the interest portion of any Excess Losses
shall be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Classes of Certificates based
upon the amount of interest to which each such Class would otherwise be paid (or
in the case of the Class A-29 Certificates, added to the Principal Balance of
such Class, prior to the Class A-29 Accretion Termination Date) on such
Distribution Date had there been no such Excess Losses allocable to interest.
(d) Any interest shortfall resulting from the Relief Act shall be
allocated pro rata among the outstanding Classes of Certificates based upon the
amount of interest to which each such Class would otherwise be paid on such
Distribution Date.
Section 6.06 Subordination. The rights of the Class B
Certificateholders to receive distributions in respect of the Class B
Certificates on any Distribution Date shall be subordinated to the rights of the
Class A and Class M Certificateholders to receive distributions in respect of
the Class A and Class M Certificates. The rights of the Class M
Certificateholders to receive distributions in respect of the Class M
Certificates on any Distribution Date shall be subordinated to the rights of the
Class A Certificateholders to receive distributions in respect of the Class A
Certificates. The rights of the Class B-1 Certificateholders to receive
distributions in respect of the Class B-1 Certificates on any Distribution Date
shall be subordinate to the rights of the Class A and Class M Certificateholders
to receive distributions in respect of such Class A and Class M Certificates.
Each Class of Class B Certificates (other than the Class B-1 Certificates) is
subordinated to the Class A Certificates, the Class M Certificates and each
Class of Class B Certificates having a lower numerical class designation than
such Class of Class B Certificates. The rights of the Servicer, as servicer, to
receive funds from the Collection Account, pursuant to Section 5.09, on account
of the Servicing Fee (except as provided in Section 6.05) in respect of each
Mortgage Loan, assumption fees, late payment charges and other mortgagor
charges, reimbursement of Advances and expenses or otherwise, shall not be
subordinated to the rights of the Class A, Class M or Class B
Certificateholders. Amounts held by the Servicer or the Trustee for future
distribution to the Class M or Class B Certificateholders, including, without
limitation, in the Collection Account, shall not be distributed in respect of
the Class M or Class B Certificates except in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. The Class B Certificateholders are deemed to have granted a security
interest in such amounts to the Class A and Class M Certificateholders to secure
the rights of the Class A and Class M Certificateholders to receive
distributions in priority over the Class B Certificateholders. The Class M
Certificateholders are deemed to have granted a security interest in such
amounts to the Class A Certificateholders to secure the rights of the Class A
Certificateholders to receive distributions in priority over the Class A
Certificateholders.

Section 6.07 Determination of LIBOR. The meaning of LIBOR applicable to
the calculation of the Certificate Rates on the Class A-10, Class A-11 and Class
A-12 Certificates for any Interest Accrual Period (other than the initial
Interest Accrual Period) will be determined by the Servicer on each Rate
Adjustment Date as follows:
For any Interest Accrual Period other than the first Interest Accrual
Period, the rate for United States dollar deposits for one month which appears
on the Telerate Screen Page 3750 as of 11:00 A.M., London, England time, on the
second LIBOR Business Day prior to the first day of such Interest Accrual
Period. For the first Interest Accrual Period, LIBOR shall equal 3.75% with
respect to the Class A-10, Class A-11 and Class A-12 Certificates. If such rate
does not appear on such page (or such other page as may replace that page on
that service, or if such service is no longer offered, such other service for
displaying LIBOR or comparable rates as may be reasonably selected by the
Servicer), the rate will be the Reference Bank Rate. If no such quotations can
be obtained and no Reference Bank Rate is available, LIBOR will be LIBOR
applicable to the preceding Distribution Date.

REPORTS TO BE PREPARED BY THE SERVICER
Section 7.01 Servicer Shall Provide Information as Reasonably Required.
The Servicer shall furnish to the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been
appointed pursuant to Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, during the term of this
Agreement, such periodic, special, or other reports or information, whether or
not provided for herein, as shall be necessary, reasonable, or appropriate in
respect to the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed pursuant to
Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, or otherwise in respect to the purposes of this
Agreement, all such reports or information to be as provided by and in
accordance with such applicable instructions and directions as the Trustee or,
if a Paying Agent has been appointed pursuant to Section 4.05, the Paying Agent
may reasonably require.
Section 7.02 Federal Information Returns and Reports to
Certificateholders.
(a) For federal income tax purposes, the taxable year of each REMIC
Pool shall be a calendar year and the Servicer shall maintain or cause the
maintenance of the books of each REMIC Pool on the accrual method of accounting.
(b) The Servicer or anyone acting on its behalf pursuant to Section
2.04(e) shall prepare and file or cause to be filed with the Internal Revenue
Service federal tax or information returns with respect to the Trust Fund, each
REMIC Pool and the Certificates containing such information and at the times and
in the manner as may be required by the Code or applicable Treasury regulations,
and shall furnish to each Certificateholder at any time during the calendar year
for which such returns or reports are made such statements or information at the
times and in the manner as may be required thereby. Without limitation on any
other requirement of this Section 7.02, the Servicer shall make available the
information necessary for the application of Section 860E(e) of the Code within
60 days of such request. With respect to the Class A-R Certificate, the Servicer
shall provide such information or cause such information to be provided to (i)
the Internal Revenue Service, (ii) the transferor of a Class A-R Certificate to
a Disqualified Organization and (iii) a Pass-Thru Entity that holds a Class A-R
Certificate with one or more record holders that are Disqualified Organizations.
The Servicer also shall provide or cause to be provided promptly the above
described computation and information relating to the tax on transfers to
Disqualified Organizations or holdings by Pass-Thru Entities within sixty (60)
days after becoming aware of the transfer to a Disqualified Organization or
Pass-Thru Entity with one or more Disqualified Organization owners, as the case
may be. In addition, except as may be provided in Treasury Regulations, any
Person holding an interest in a Pass-Thru Entity as a nominee for another will,
85
with respect to such interest, be treated as a Pass-Thru Entity. In connection
with the foregoing, the Servicer shall provide the name, address and telephone
number of the person who can be contacted to obtain information required to be
reported to the holders of regular interests in any REMIC created hereunder (the
"REMIC Reporting Agent") as required by IRS Form 8811. The Trustee hereby
designates the Servicer to serve as the REMIC Reporting Agent. The Servicer
shall indicate the elections to treat each of the Lower-Tier REMIC and the
Upper-Tier REMIC as a REMIC (which elections shall apply to the taxable period
ending December 31, 2005 and each calendar year thereafter) in such manner as
the Code or applicable Treasury regulations may prescribe. The Trustee shall
sign all tax and information returns filed pursuant to this Section 7.02 and any
other returns as may be required by the Code, and in doing so shall rely
entirely upon, and shall have no liability for information provided by, or
calculations provided by, the Servicer. The Servicer is hereby designated as the
agent of the Holder of the Class A-R Certificate who shall be the "tax matters
person" (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. ss.1.860F-4(d)) for each REMIC Pool.
Any Holder of a Class A-R Certificate will by acceptance thereof so appoint the
Servicer as agent and attorney-in-fact for the purpose of acting as tax matters
person. In the event that the Code or applicable Treasury regulations prohibit
the Trustee from signing tax or information returns or other statements, or the
Servicer from acting as tax matters person (as an agent or otherwise), the
Trustee or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall take whatever action that in
its sole good faith judgment is necessary for the proper filing of such
information returns or for the provision of a tax matters person, including
designation of the Holder of a Class A-R Certificate to sign such returns or act
as tax matters person. Each Holder of a Class A-R Certificate shall be bound by
this Section 7.02 by virtue of its acceptance of a Class A-R Certificate.

ARTICLE VIII
THE DEPOSITOR AND THE SERVICER
Section 8.01 Indemnification; Third Party Claims. The Servicer agrees
to indemnify the Depositor and the Trustee and hold the Depositor and the
Trustee, their officers, directors, employees and agents harmless against any
and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related
costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Depositor or
the Trustee, or their officers, directors, employees or agents may sustain in
any way related to failure of the Servicer to perform its duties and service the
Mortgage Loans in compliance with the terms of this Agreement; provided that no
such indemnification shall be required with respect to acts of a prior Servicer.
The Servicer shall immediately notify the Depositor and the Trustee if a claim
is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans,
assume (with the consent of the Depositor and the Trustee) 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, the Depositor or the Trustee, their officers, directors,
employees or agents in respect of such claim. This right to indemnification
shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
Section 8.02 Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor or the Servicer.
The Depositor and the Servicer will each keep in full effect its existence,
rights and franchises as a corporation, and will obtain and preserve its
qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in
which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement, the Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans
and to perform its duties under this Agreement. The Servicer will not sell all
or substantially all of its assets without the prior written consent of the
Depositor and the Trustee which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
86
Any Person into which the Depositor or the Servicer may be merged or
consolidated, or to whom the Depositor or the Servicer has sold substantially
all of its assets, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Depositor or the Servicer shall be a party, or any
Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor or the Servicer, shall be the
successor of the Depositor or the Servicer hereunder, without the execution or
filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto,
anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the
successor or surviving Person to the Servicer shall satisfy the requirements of
Section 8.05 with respect to the qualifications of a successor to the Servicer.
Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 8.02 and Section 8.04 to
the contrary, the Servicer may assign its rights and delegate its duties and
obligations under this Agreement; provided that the Person accepting such
assignment or delegation shall be a Person which is qualified to service
mortgage loans on behalf of FNMA or FHLMC, is approved in advance in writing by
the Trustee and the Depositor, is willing to service the Mortgage Loans and
executes and delivers to the Depositor and the Trustee an agreement, in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the Trustee, which
contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual performance and
observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by the
Servicer under this Agreement; provided further that each Rating Agency's rating
of any of the Classes of Certificates that have been rated in effect immediately
prior to such assignment and delegation will not be qualified or reduced or
withdrawn as a result of such assignment and delegation. In the case of any such
assignment and delegation, the Servicer shall be released from its obligations
as Servicer under this Agreement, except that the Servicer shall remain liable
for all liabilities and obligations incurred by it as Servicer hereunder prior
to the satisfaction of the conditions to such assignment and delegation set
forth in the next preceding sentence.
Section 8.03 Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the Servicer,
the Trustee and Others. Neither the Depositor, the Servicer nor any of the
directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor or the Servicer shall
be under any liability to the Trustee or the Certificateholders for any action
taken, or for refraining from the taking of any action, in good faith pursuant
to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this
provision shall not protect the Depositor or the Servicer against any breach of
warranties or representations made herein, or failure to perform its obligations
in strict compliance with this Agreement, or any liability which would otherwise
be imposed by reason of any breach of the terms and conditions of this
Agreement. The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee may rely in good
faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by
any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. Neither the Depositor, the
Servicer nor the Trustee shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute
or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its respective duties to
service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and which in its
opinion may cause it to incur any expenses or liability; provided, however, that
the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee may in its discretion (and, in the
case of the Depositor or the Servicer, with the consent of the Trustee, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) undertake any such action which it
may deem necessary or desirable with respect to this Agreement and the rights
and duties of the parties hereto. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of
such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and
liabilities payable from the Collection Account and the Depositor, the Servicer
or the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of the Collection
Account as provided by Section 4.06; provided that no such right of
reimbursement shall exist with respect to the Servicer when such claim relates
to the failure of the Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans in strict
compliance with the terms of this Agreement or to a breach of a representation
or warranty made by the Servicer hereunder.
87
Section 8.04 Depositor and Servicer Not to Resign. Except as described
in Section 8.02, neither the Depositor nor the Servicer shall assign this
Agreement or resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except
by mutual consent of the Depositor, the Servicer and all of the
Certificateholders unless the determination is made that its duties hereunder
are no longer permissible under applicable law and such incapacity cannot be
cured by the Depositor or the Servicer. Any such determination permitting the
resignation of the Depositor or the Servicer shall be evidenced by an opinion of
independent counsel to such effect delivered to the Trustee which opinion of
counsel shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Trustee. Upon any such
assignment or resignation, the Depositor or the Servicer, as appropriate, shall
send notice to all Certificateholders of the effect of such assignment or
resignation upon the then current rating of the Class of Certificates by each
Rating Agency whose rating on such Class is then in effect. No such resignation
shall become effective until a successor shall have assumed the Depositor's or
the Servicer's responsibilities and obligations hereunder in the manner provided
in Section 8.05. Any purported assignment or resignation which does not comply
with the requirements of this Section shall be of no effect.
Section 8.05 Successor to the Servicer. In connection with the
termination of the Servicer's responsibilities and duties under this Agreement
pursuant to Section 8.04 or 9.01, the Trustee shall succeed to and assume all of
the Servicer's responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations as Servicer (but
not in any other capacity) under this Agreement (except that the Trustee shall
not be obligated to make Advances if prohibited by applicable law nor to
effectuate repurchases or substitutions of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section
2.02 and except that the Trustee makes no representations and warranties
pursuant to Sections 3.01 and 3.02). Prior to the termination of the Servicer's
responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement, the Trustee may
appoint a successor having a net worth of not less than $15,000,000 and which is
a FNMA or FHLMC approved seller/servicer in good standing and which shall
succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and
liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement, except as aforesaid, if the
Trustee receives a letter from each Rating Agency that such appointment would
not result in a reduction or withdrawal of the current rating of any Class of
Certificates that is rated by a Rating Agency. Any co-trustee appointed pursuant
to Section 10.10 for purposes of this Section 8.05 shall have an obligation to
make Advances pursuant to Section 6.03 during such time as the Trustee is the
Servicer, which obligation shall be joint and several with that of the Trustee
as Servicer. If the Trustee has become the successor to the Servicer in
accordance with this Section or Section 9.03, then notwithstanding the above,
the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is unable
to so act, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint,
any established housing and home finance institution having a net worth of not
less than $15,000,000 and which is a FNMA or FHLMC approved seller/servicer in
good standing as the successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of
all of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder. In
connection with any such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make such
arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage
Loans as it and such successor shall agree or such court shall determine;
provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that
permitted under this Agreement without the consent of all of the
Certificateholders. If the Servicer's duties, responsibilities and liabilities
under this Agreement should be terminated pursuant to Section 8.02, 8.04 or
9.01, 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 or the Trust Fund. The resignation or removal of the Servicer
pursuant to Section 8.02, 8.04 or 9.01 shall not become effective until a
successor shall be appointed pursuant to this Section and shall in no event
relieve the Servicer of liability for breach of the representations and
warranties made pursuant to Section 3.03.
88
Any successor appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge
and deliver to the Servicer and to the Trustee an instrument accepting such
appointment, 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
and the Certificates. Any termination or resignation of the Servicer or this
Agreement pursuant to Section 8.02, 8.04, 9.01 or 11.01 shall not affect any
claims that the Trustee may have against the Servicer for events or actions
taken or not taken by the Servicer arising prior to any such termination or
resignation.
The Servicer shall timely deliver to the successor the funds that were,
or were required to be, in the Collection Account and the Escrow Account, if
any, and all Mortgage Files and related documents, statements and recordkeeping
held by it hereunder 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 definitely vest and confirm 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, in writing, the Trustee, the Certificateholders and each Rating
Agency of such appointment.
Section 8.06 Maintenance of Ratings. The Servicer shall cooperate with
the Depositor and take any action that may be reasonably necessary to maintain
the current rating or ratings on the Certificates.
[END OF ARTICLE VIII]
ARTICLE IX
DEFAULT
Section 9.01 Events of Default. If one or more of the following Events
of Default shall occur and be continuing, that is to say:
(a) any failure by the Servicer to remit any payment required to be
made or distributed under the terms of this Agreement which continues unremedied
for a period of three (3) Business Days after the date upon which written notice
of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the
Servicer by the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Depositor or to the Servicer,
the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Depositor by the Holders of Certificates
of any Class evidencing, as to such Class, Percentage Interests aggregating not
less than 25%; or
(b) a breach by the Servicer in a material respect of any
representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.02, or failure on the part of
the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of the
covenants or agreements on the part of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement,
which continues unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date on which
written notice of such breach or failure, requiring the same to be remedied,
shall have been given to the Servicer by the Trustee or the Depositor or to the
Servicer, the Trustee and the Depositor by the Holders of Certificates of any
Class evidencing, as to such Class, Percentage Interests aggregating not less
than 25%; or
(c) the Servicer shall notify the Trustee and any Paying Agent
appointed pursuant to Section 4.05 in writing that it is unable to make an
Advance required to be made in accordance with Section 6.03; or;
(d) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority
having jurisdiction for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or
liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and
liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its
affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer and such decree or order
shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days;
or
89
(e) the Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or
receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of
assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Servicer or
of or relating to all or substantially all of the Servicer's property; or
(f) the Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts
generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any
applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the
benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations;
then, and in each and every such case, so long as an Event of Default shall not
have been remedied, the Trustee shall notify the Certificateholders and each
Rating Agency of such Event of Default. The Trustee may, and at the written
direction of the Holders of Certificates evidencing Percentage Interests
aggregating more than 50%, shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer,
terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement
and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. On or after the
receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the
Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or
otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the successor appointed pursuant to
Section 8.05. Upon written request from the Trustee, the Servicer shall prepare,
execute and deliver, any and all documents and other instruments, place in such
successor's possession all Mortgage Files, and do or accomplish all other acts
or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of
termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of
the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise, at the Servicer's sole
expense. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee and any co-trustee in
effecting the termination of the Servicer's responsibilities and rights
hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to such successor for
administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited or
should have been credited by the Servicer to the Collection Account or Escrow
Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans. The Trustee
will have no obligation to take any action or institute, conduct or defend any
litigation under this Agreement at the request, order or direction of any of the
Holders of Certificates unless such Certificateholders have offered to the
Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and
liabilities which the Trustee may incur.
Section 9.02 Waiver of Defaults. The Trustee may waive any default by
the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its
consequences, except that a default in the making of any required distribution
on any of the Certificates may only be waived by the holders of a majority of
the Percentage Interests of the affected Certificateholders. Upon any such
waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of
Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every
purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent
expressly so waived.
Section 9.03 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor. On and after the
time the Servicer receives a notice of termination pursuant to Section 9.01, the
Trustee or its appointed agent shall be the successor in all respects to the
Servicer to the extent provided in Section 8.05.
Section 9.04 Notification to Certificateholders and the Rating
Agencies.
(a) Upon any such termination pursuant to Section 9.01, the Trustee
shall give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their
respective addresses appearing in the Certificate Register and to each Rating
Agency.
90
(b) Within sixty (60) days of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee
having received written notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default, the
Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Certificates notice of each
such Event of Default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such Event of
Default shall have been cured or waived.
[END OF ARTICLE IX]
ARTICLE X
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE
Section 10.01 Duties of Trustee. The Trustee, prior to the occurrence
of an Event of Default and after the curing of all Events of Default which may
have occurred, undertakes to, and is empowered to, perform such duties and only
such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. Any permissive
right of the Trustee as enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a
duty; provided that in case an Event of Default has occurred (which has not been
cured), the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by
this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a
prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such
man's own affairs.
No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the
Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure
to act or its own willful misconduct, and, if the Trustee is acting as the
successor Servicer pursuant to Section 8.05 or 9.03, its own willful misconduct
with respect to its servicing obligations; provided, however, that:
(i) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, and after
the curing of all such Events of Default which may have occurred, the
duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the
express provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be liable
except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are
specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or
obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee and,
in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may
conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or
opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of
this Agreement;
(ii) The Trustee shall not be liable for an error of judgment
made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of
the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent
in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and
(iii) The Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any
action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in
accordance with the direction of Certificateholders of any Class
holding Certificates which evidence, as to such Class, Percentage
Interests aggregating not less than 25% as to the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the
Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee,
under this Agreement.
(iv) The Trustee shall execute the Letter of Representations,
a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit P, on behalf of the
Depositor.
91
Section 10.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee. Except as
otherwise provided in Section 10.01:
(a) The Trustee may rely upon and shall be protected in acting or
refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officers' Certificate, certificate
of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report,
notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper or document
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
party or parties;
(b) The Trustee may consult with counsel, and any advice or Opinion of
Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of
any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in
accordance with such advice or Opinion of Counsel;
(c) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to institute, conduct or
defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or
direction of any of the Certificateholders, pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement, unless such Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee
reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities
which may be incurred therein or thereby; nothing contained herein shall,
however, relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default (which has not been cured), to exercise such of the rights and powers
vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in
their exercise as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in
the conduct of such man's own affairs;
(d) Neither the Trustee nor any of its directors, officers, employees
or agents shall be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted
by it in good faith and believed by it or any of them to be authorized or within
the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon the Trustee by this Agreement;
(e) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder and after
the curing of all Events of Default which may have occurred, the Trustee shall
not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any
resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,
request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless
requested in writing to do so by Holders of Certificates of any Class
evidencing, as to such Class, Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 25%
(in the case of conflicting requests by two or more 25% or greater Percentage
Interests, the Trustee shall act in accordance with the first such request);
provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee
of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making
of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured
to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Agreement,
the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such expense or liability
as a condition to such proceeding. The reasonable expense of every such
examination shall be paid by the Servicer, if an Event of Default shall have
occurred and is continuing, and otherwise by the Certificateholder requesting
the investigation;
(f) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents,
subcontractors or attorneys; and
(g) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require the Trustee
(acting in its capacity as Trustee) to expend its own funds.
92
Section 10.03 Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the
authentication of the Certificates by an authorized signatory of the Trustee)
shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor or the Servicer, as the case
may be, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The
Trustee makes no representations or warranties as to the validity or sufficiency
of this Agreement or of the Certificates (except that (except as set forth
herein) the Certificates shall be duly and validly executed and authenticated by
it) or of any Mortgage Loan or related document. The Trustee shall not be
accountable for the use or application by the Depositor or the Servicer of any
of the Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or
application of any funds paid to the Depositor or the Servicer in respect of the
Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the Collection Account by the
Depositor or the Servicer. The Trustee, in its capacity as trustee hereunder,
shall have no responsibility for the timeliness or the amount of payments made
by the Paying Agent to the Certificateholders.
Section 10.04 Trustee May Own Certificates. The Trustee in its
individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates
with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.
Section 10.05 Fees and Expenses. The Servicer covenants and agrees to
pay to the Trustee and its agents a monthly fee (which shall not be limited by
any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express
trust) equal to the product of (a) the Aggregate Principal Balance of the

advances incurred or made by the Trustee or its agents in accordance with any of
the provisions of this Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the
expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not regularly in
its employ, and the expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with the
appointment of an office or agency pursuant to Section 10.11) except any such
expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section shall
survive the termination of this Agreement.
Section 10.06 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee. The Trustee
hereunder shall at all times be an entity having its principal office in a state
and city acceptable to the Depositor and organized and doing business under the
laws of such state or the United States of America, authorized under such laws
to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at
least $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authority. The Trustee shall not be an Affiliate of either Seller or the
Depositor. If such entity publishes reports of condition at least annually,
pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining
authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and
surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In
case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner
and with the effect specified in Section 10.07.
Section 10.07 Resignation and Removal of the Trustee. The Trustee, and
any co-trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby
created by giving written notice thereof to the Depositor, the Servicer and each
Rating Agency. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall
promptly appoint a successor trustee or co-trustee by written instrument, in
duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning
Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee; provided that such appointment
does not result in a reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any of the Classes
of Certificates that have been rated. If no successor trustee shall have been so
appointed and have accepted appointment within thirty (30) days after the giving
of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.
93
If at any time, the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of Section 10.06 and shall fail to resign after written
request therefor by the Depositor, or if at any time the Trustee shall become
incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver
of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer
shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for
the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Depositor
may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in
duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so
removed and one copy to the successor trustee.
The Holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate more than 50%
of Percentage Interest may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a
successor trustee by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by
such Holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of
which instruments shall be delivered to the Depositor, one complete set to the
Trustee so removed and one complete set to the successor so appointed.
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee or any resignation of any
co-trustee and appointment of a successor trustee or co-trustee pursuant to any
of the provisions of this Section shall become effective upon acceptance of
appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 10.08, or upon
acceptance of appointment by a co-trustee, as applicable, unless with respect to
a co-trustee, the Trustee receives written notice from each Rating Agency that
the failure to appoint a successor co-trustee would not result in a withdrawal
or reduction of the rating of any of the Classes of Certificates that have been
rated, in which case the resignation of any co-trustee shall be effective upon
receipt of such written notice. Any co-trustee may not be removed unless the
Depositor and the Trustee each receive written notice from each Rating Agency
that such removal would not result in a withdrawal or reduction of the rating of
any of the Classes of Certificates that have been rated, in which case the
removal of any co-trustee shall be effective upon receipt of such written
notice.
Section 10.08 Successor Trustee. Any successor trustee appointed as
provided in Section 10.07 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the
Depositor and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such
appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the
predecessor trustee shall become effective, and such successor trustee shall
become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and
obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if originally
named as trustee herein. The predecessor trustee shall deliver to the successor
trustee all Mortgage Files and related documents and statements held by it
hereunder, and the Depositor, the Servicer and the predecessor trustee shall
execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably
be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor
trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.
No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 10.06. Prior to the appointment of any
successor trustee becoming effective, the Depositor shall have received from
each Rating Agency written confirmation that such appointment would not result
in a reduction of the rating of the Class A or Class M Certificates.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in
this Section, the Servicer shall mail notice of the succession of such trustee
hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as shown in the
Certificate Register, to the Servicer, any Sub-Servicer and to each Rating
Agency. If the Depositor fails to mail such notice within ten (10) days after
acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall
cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Depositor.
94
Section 10.09 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee. Any entity into which
the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or
any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the
Trustee shall be a party, or any entity succeeding to the business of the
Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such
corporation shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 10.06, without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the
parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
Section 10.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee. At any
time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in
which any part of the Trust Fund or property securing the same may at the time
be located, the Depositor and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power
and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons
approved by the Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the
Trustee, of any part of the Trust Fund, and to vest in such Person or Persons,
in such capacity, such title to the Trust Fund, or any part thereof, and,
subject to the other provisions of this Section 10.10, such powers, duties,
obligations, rights and trusts as the Depositor and the Trustee may consider
necessary or desirable. If the Depositor shall not have joined in such
appointment within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by it of a request so to
do, or in case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or
separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as
a successor trustee under Section 10.06, hereunder, and no notice to Holders of
Certificates of the appointment of co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be
required under Section 10.08 hereof.
In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee
pursuant to this Section 10.10, all rights, powers, duties and obligations
conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and
exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee
jointly and severally, except to the extent that under any law of any
jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as
Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall
be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such
rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the
Trust Fund or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised
and performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the
Trustee.
Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall
refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article X. Each separate
trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be
vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment,
either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein,
subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every
provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability
of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be
filed with the Trustee.
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute the
Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to the
extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this
Agreement on its behalf and in its name.
Section 10.11 Appointment of Office or Agency. The Trustee may appoint
an office or agency in The City of New York where Certificates may be
surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The Trustee will maintain
an office at the address stated in Section 12.07 hereof where notices and
demands to or upon the Trustee in respect of the Certificates may be served.

ARTICLE XI
TERMINATION
Section 11.01 Termination. The respective obligations and
responsibilities of the Depositor, the Servicer (except the duty to pay the
Trustee's fees and expenses and indemnification hereunder) and the Trustee shall
terminate upon (i) the later of the final payment or other liquidation (or any
Advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan or the disposition of
all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any
Mortgage Loan and the remittance of all funds due hereunder; or (ii) at the
option of the Servicer, on any Distribution Date which occurs in the month next
following a Due Date on which the aggregate unpaid Principal Balance of all
Outstanding Mortgage Loans is less than 10% of the aggregate unpaid Principal
Balance of the Mortgage Loans on the Cut-off Date, so long as the Servicer
deposits or causes to be deposited in the Collection Account during the
Principal Prepayment Period related to such Distribution Date (and provides
notice to the Trustee with a copy to the Paying Agent appointed pursuant to
Section 4.05 of its intention to so deposit on or before 20th day of such
Principal Prepayment Period) an amount equal to the Purchase Price for each
Outstanding Mortgage Loan, less any unreimbursed Advances made with respect to
any Mortgage Loan (which amount shall offset completely any unreimbursed
Advances for which the Servicer is otherwise entitled to reimbursement), and,
with respect to all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan remaining
in the Trust Fund, an amount equal to the fair market value of such property, as
determined by an appraisal to be conducted by an appraiser selected by the
Trustee, less unreimbursed Advances made with respect to any Mortgage Loan with
respect to which property has been acquired; provided, however, that in no event
shall the trust created hereby continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from
the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late
ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James's, living on the date
hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a termination may be effected by the
making of such optional repurchases only if the termination of the Trust Fund
satisfies the requirement for a "qualified liquidation" of the Trust Fund within
the meaning of Section 860F(a)(4) of the Code and the purchases of the
Outstanding Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 11.01 will not constitute
"prohibited transactions" within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code.
Notice of any termination, specifying the Distribution Date upon which
all Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates to the Trustee or, if a
Paying Agent has been appointed pursuant to Section 4.05, the Paying Agent for
payment and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the Trustee or, if a Paying
Agent has been appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, (upon direction
by the Depositor ten (10) days prior to the date such notice is to be mailed) by
signed letter to Certificateholders and each Rating Agency mailed no later than
the 25th day of the month preceding the month of such final distribution
specifying (i) the Distribution Date upon which final payment on the
Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of Certificates at the
office or agency of the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under
Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, therein designated and (ii) that the Record Date
otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being
made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office or
agency of the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section
4.05, the Paying Agent, therein specified. The Servicer shall indicate the date
of adoption of the plan of qualified liquidation in a statement attached to the
final federal income tax return of each REMIC Pool. After giving such notice,
the Trustee or if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section 4.05, the
Paying Agent shall not register the transfer or exchange of any Certificates. If
such notice is given in connection with the Servicer's election to purchase the
Outstanding Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account
after adoption of the plan during the applicable Principal Prepayment Period an
amount equal to the purchase price as determined as provided in clause (ii) of
the preceding paragraph and on the Distribution Date on which such termination
is to occur, Certificateholders will be entitled to the amount of such purchase
price but not amounts in excess thereof, all as provided herein. Upon
presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Trustee, or if a Paying
Agent has been appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent shall notify the
Servicer and the Servicer shall cause to be distributed to Certificateholders an
amount equal to (a) the amount otherwise distributable on such Distribution
Date, if not in connection with a purchase; or (b) if the Servicer elected to so
purchase, the purchase price determined as provided in clause (ii) of the
preceding paragraph. Following such final deposit the Trustee shall promptly
release to the Servicer the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans, and
the Trustee shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments
necessary to effectuate such transfer and shall have no further responsibility
with regard to said Mortgage Files.
96
If all of the Certificateholders shall not surrender their Certificates
for cancellation within three (3) months after the time specified in the
above-mentioned written notice, at the close of the 90 day period beginning
after the written notice is given, each remaining Certificateholder will be
credited with an amount that would have been otherwise distributed to such
Certificateholder, and the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed
under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, shall give a second written notice to the
remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation
and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within three (3)
months after the second notice all the Certificates shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been
appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, shall appoint an agent to take
appropriate and reasonable steps to contact the remaining Certificateholders
concerning surrender of their Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid
out of the funds and other assets which remain in the Trust Fund hereunder.

provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or
enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement.
Section 12.02 Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders. The death or
incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate to terminate this
Agreement or the Trust Fund, nor entitle such Certificateholder's legal
representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or
proceeding in any court for a partition or winding-up of the Trust Fund, nor
otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto
or any of them.
No Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as expressly
provided herein) or in any manner otherwise control the operation and management
of the Trust Fund, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything
herein set forth, or contained in the terms of the Certificates, be construed so
as to constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members
of an association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under any liability to any
third Person by reason of any action taken by the parties to this Agreement
pursuant to any provision hereof.
97
No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any provision of
this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law
upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, unless such Holder previously
shall have given to the Trustee a written notice of default and of the
continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and the Holders of Certificates
of any Class evidencing in the aggregate not less than 25% of the Percentage
Interests of such Class shall have made written request upon the Trustee to
institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder
(in the case of conflicting requests by two or more 25% or greater Percentage

shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require
against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby,
and the Trustee, for sixty (60) days after its receipt of such notice, request
and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such
action, suit or proceeding; it being understood and intended, and being
expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other
Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates
of any Class shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of any
provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the
Holders of any other of such Certificates of such Class or any other Class, or
to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such
Holder, or to enforce any right under this Agreement, except in the manner
herein provided and for the common benefit of Certificateholders of such Class
or all Classes, as the case may be. For the protection and enforcement of the
provisions of this Section, each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee
shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.
Section 12.03 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended from time to
time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee, without the consent of any
of the Certificateholders, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any
provisions herein which may be inconsistent with any other provisions herein, to
ensure continuing treatment of each REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC to avoid
or minimize the risk of imposition of any tax on any REMIC created hereunder
pursuant to the Code, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or
questions arising under this Agreement which shall not be materially
inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, provided that such actions
shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any
material respect the interests of any Certificateholder of a Class having an
Outstanding Certificate Principal Balance of greater than zero or cause any
REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC.
This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor,
the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66-2/3% of the Percentage Interest of
each Class of Certificates having an Outstanding Certificate Principal Balance
greater than zero and affected thereby for the purpose of adding any provisions
to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this
Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of
Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (i)
reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on
Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed on any Certificate without
the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (ii) reduce the aforesaid
percentage of Certificates of any class the Holders of which are required to
consent to any such amendment or (iii) change the percentage specified in clause
(ii) of the first paragraph of Section 11.01, without the consent of the Holders
of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this
Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer and
the Trustee with the consent of Certificateholders evidencing not less than
66-2/3% of the interests held by parties other than the Depositor, its
Affiliates or its agents, for the purposes of significantly changing the
Permitted Activities of the Trust.
Promptly after the execution of any such amendment the Trustee shall
furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment to each
Certificateholder and each Rating Agency.
98
It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under
this Section 12.03 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment but
it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The
manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the
execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable
regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.
Section 12.04 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed
simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall
be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and
the same instrument.

existence and effect until terminated as herein provided.

MULTI-CLASS MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE
SERIES 2005-S2
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates,
designated as Chase Mortgage Finance Trust, Multi-Class Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, Series 2005-S2, issued in one or more Classes of Class A, Class M
and Class B Certificates. The Class A Certificates evidence in the aggregate the
Class A Percentage of distributions relating to repayments of principal and
interest on the Mortgage Loans. The Class M Certificates evidence in the
aggregate the Class M Percentage of distributions relating to repayments of
principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans. The Class B Certificates evidence
in the aggregate the Class B Percentage of distributions relating to repayments
of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans.
Following the initial issuance of the Certificates, the Principal
Balance of this Certificate will be different from the Original Denomination
shown above. Anyone acquiring this Certificate may ascertain its current
Principal Balance by inquiry of the Trustee.
The Holder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will
look solely to the Trust Fund and certain amounts resulting from credit
enhancements for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the
Holders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or,
except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under
the Agreement.
This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of
rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Trustee.
The Trustee will cause to be kept at its Agency & Trust Office in New
York, New York, or at the office of any Paying Agent appointed under the
Agreement, a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee (or any Paying Agent, as the case
may be) will provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and
exchanges of Certificates. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any
Certificate at any office or agency of the Trustee, or, if a Paying Agent has
been appointed under Section 4.05 of the Agreement, the Paying Agent, maintained
for such purpose, the Trustee, or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under
Section 4.05 of the Agreement, the Paying Agent, will, subject to the
limitations set forth in the Agreement, authenticate and deliver, in the name of
the designated transferee or transferees, a Certificate of a like Class and
dated the date of authentication by the Authenticating Agent.
No service charge will be made to the Holder for any transfer or
exchange of the Certificate, but the Trustee, or, if a Paying Agent has been
appointed under Section 4.05 of the Agreement, the Paying Agent, may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of the Certificate. Prior to
due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor,
the Servicer and the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate
is registered as the owner of such Certificate and the Percentage Interest in
the Trust Fund evidenced thereby for the purpose of receiving distributions
pursuant to the Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Paying Agent nor the Trustee will be affected by
notice to the contrary.
C-6
The Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the
Servicer and the Trustee, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders,
to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions therein which may
be inconsistent with the other provisions therein, to ensure continuing
treatment of each REMIC (as hereinafter defined) included in the Trust Fund as a
REMIC, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions
arising under the Agreement which are not materially inconsistent with the
provisions of the Agreement, provided that such action does not, as evidenced by
an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of
any Certificateholder or cause any REMIC included in the Trust Fund to fail to
qualify as a REMIC.
The Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor,
the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66-2/3% of the Percentage Interests of
each Class of Certificates affected thereby for the purpose of adding any
provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of
the Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of
Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment may (i)
reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on
Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed on any Certificate without
the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (ii) reduce the aforesaid
percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to
consent to any such amendment or (iii) change the percentage specified in clause
(ii) of the first paragraph of Section 11.01 of the Agreement, without the
consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding.
For federal income tax purposes, the Trust Fund includes four
segregated asset pools. The Depositor intends to cause elections to be made to
treat each as a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" (a "REMIC"). The Class
A Certificates (other than the Class A-R Certificate), the Class M Certificates
and the Class B Certificates will constitute "regular interests" in the
Upper-Tier REMIC. The Class A-R Certificate will represent the sole class of
"residual interest" in each of four REMICs.
The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Depositor, the
Servicer (except the duty to pay the Trustee's fees and expenses and
indemnification hereunder) and the Trustee shall terminate upon (i) the later of
the final payment or other liquidation (or any Advance with respect thereto) of
the last Mortgage Loan or the disposition of all property acquired upon
foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and the
remittance of all funds due hereunder; or (ii) at the option of the Servicer on
any Distribution Date which occurs in the month next following a Due Date on
which the aggregate unpaid Principal Balance of all Outstanding Mortgage Loans
is less than 10% of the aggregate unpaid Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans
on the Cut-off Date, so long as the Servicer deposits or causes to be deposited
in the applicable Collection Account during the Principal Prepayment Period
related to such Distribution Date (and provides notice to the Trustee of its
intention to so deposit on or before the 20th day of such Principal Prepayment
Period) an amount equal to the Purchase Price for each Outstanding Mortgage
Loan, less any unreimbursed Advances made with respect to any Mortgage Loan
(which amount shall offset completely any unreimbursed Advances for which the
Servicer is otherwise entitled to reimbursement), and, with respect to all
property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund,
an amount equal to the fair market value of such property, as determined by an
appraisal to be conducted by an appraiser selected by the Trustee, less
unreimbursed Advances made with respect to any Mortgage Loan with respect to
which property has been acquired; provided, however, that in no event shall the
trust created by the Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from
the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late
ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James's, living on the date
hereof.

CHASE MORTGAGE FINANCE TRUST
MULTI-CLASS MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE
SERIES 2005-S2
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates,
designated as Chase Mortgage Finance Trust, Multi-Class Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, Series 2005-S2, issued in one or more Classes of Class A, Class M
and Class B Certificates. The Class A Certificates evidence in the aggregate the
Class A Percentage of distributions relating to repayments of principal and
interest on the Mortgage Loans. The Class M Certificates evidence in the
aggregate the Class M Percentage of distributions relating to repayments of
principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans. The Class B Certificates evidence
in the aggregate the Class B Percentage of distributions relating to repayments
of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans.
Following the initial issuance of the Certificates, the Principal
Balance of this Certificate will be different from the Original Denomination
shown above. Anyone acquiring this Certificate may ascertain its current
Principal Balance by inquiry of the Trustee.
The Holder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will
look solely to the Trust Fund and certain amounts resulting from credit
enhancements for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the
Holders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or,
except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under
the Agreement.
This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of
rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Trustee.
The Trustee will cause to be kept at its Agency & Trust Office in New
York, New York, or at the office of any Paying Agent appointed under the
Agreement, a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee (or any Paying Agent, as the case
may be) will provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and
exchanges of Certificates. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any
Certificate at any office or agency of the Trustee, or, if a Paying Agent has
been appointed under Section 4.05 of the Agreement, the Paying Agent, maintained
for such purpose, the Trustee, or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under
Section 4.05 of the Agreement, the Paying Agent, will, subject to the
limitations set forth in the Agreement, authenticate and deliver, in the name of
the designated transferee or transferees, a Certificate of a like Class and
dated the date of authentication by the Authenticating Agent.
No service charge will be made to the Holder for any transfer or
exchange of the Certificate, but the Trustee, or, if a Paying Agent has been
appointed under Section 4.05 of the Agreement, the Paying Agent, may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of the Certificate. Prior to
due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor,
the Servicer and the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate
is registered as the owner of such Certificate and the Percentage Interest in
the Trust Fund evidenced thereby for the purpose of receiving distributions
pursuant to the Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Paying Agent nor the Trustee will be affected by
notice to the contrary.
E-7
The Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the
Servicer and the Trustee, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders,
to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provisions therein which may
be inconsistent with the other provisions therein, to ensure continuing
treatment of each REMIC (as hereinafter defined) included in the Trust Fund as a
REMIC, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions
arising under the Agreement which are not materially inconsistent with the
provisions of the Agreement, provided that such action does not, as evidenced by
an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of
any Certificateholder or cause any REMIC included in the Trust Fund to fail to
qualify as a REMIC.
The Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor,
the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66-2/3% of the Percentage Interests of
each Class of Certificates affected thereby for the purpose of adding any
provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of
the Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of
Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment may (i)
reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on
Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed on any Certificate without
the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (ii) reduce the aforesaid
percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to
consent to any such amendment or (iii) change the percentage specified in clause
(ii) of the first paragraph of Section 11.01 of the Agreement, without the
consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding.
For federal income tax purposes, the Trust Fund includes four
segregated asset pools. The Depositor intends to cause elections to be made to
treat each as a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" (a "REMIC"). The Class
A Certificates (other than the Class A-R Certificate), the Class M Certificates
and the Class B Certificates will constitute "regular interests" in the
Upper-Tier REMIC. The Class A-R Certificate will represent the sole class of
"residual interest" in each of four REMICs.
The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Depositor, the
Servicer (except the duty to pay the Trustee's fees and expenses and
indemnification hereunder) and the Trustee shall terminate upon (i) the later of
the final payment or other liquidation (or any Advance with respect thereto) of
the last Mortgage Loan or the disposition of all property acquired upon
foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and the
remittance of all funds due hereunder; or (ii) at the option of the Servicer, on
any Distribution Date which occurs in the month next following a Due Date on
which the aggregate unpaid Principal Balance of all Outstanding Mortgage Loans
is less than 10% of the aggregate unpaid Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans
on the Cut-off Date, so long as the Servicer deposits or causes to be deposited
in the applicable Collection Account during the Principal Prepayment Period
related to such Distribution Date (and provides notice to the Trustee of its
intention to so deposit on or before the 20th day of such Principal Prepayment
Period) an amount equal to the Purchase Price for each Outstanding Mortgage
Loan, less any unreimbursed Advances made with respect to any Mortgage Loan
(which amount shall offset completely any unreimbursed Advances for which the
Servicer is otherwise entitled to reimbursement), and, with respect to all
property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund,
an amount equal to the fair market value of such property, as determined by an
appraisal to be conducted by an appraiser selected by the Trustee, less
unreimbursed Advances made with respect to any Mortgage Loan with respect to
which property has been acquired; provided, however, that in no event shall the
trust created by the Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from
the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late
ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James's, living on the date
hereof.

SPECIAL SERVICING PROCEDURES
Section 2.01 Reports and Notices.
1. In connection with the performance of its duties under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement relating to the realization upon defaulted Mortgage
Loans, the Company, as Servicer, shall provide to the Purchaser the following
notices and reports:
(a) Within five Business Days after each Distribution
Date (or included in or with the monthly statement to
Certificateholders pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement), the Company shall provide to
the Purchaser a report indicating for the Trust the
number of Mortgage Loans that are (A) thirty days,
(B) sixty days, (C) ninety days or more delinquent or
(D) in foreclosure, and indicating for each such
Mortgage Loan the outstanding principal balance.
(b) Prior to the Commencement of Foreclosure in
connection with any Mortgage Loan, the Company shall
provide the Purchaser with a notice (sent by
telecopier) of such proposed and imminent
foreclosure, stating the loan number and the
aggregate amount owing under the Mortgage Loan.
2. If requested by the Purchaser, the Company shall make its servicing
personnel available (during their normal business hours) to respond to
reasonable inquiries by the Purchaser in connection with any Mortgage Loan
identified in a report under subsection (a)(i)(B), (a)(i)(C), (a)(i)(D) or
(a)(ii) which has been given to the Purchaser; provided, that (1) the Company
shall only be required to provide information that is readily accessible to its
servicing personnel and is non-confidential and (2) the Company shall not be
required to provide any written information under this subsection.
3. In addition to the foregoing, the Company shall provide to the
Purchaser such information as the Purchaser may reasonably request concerning
each Mortgage Loan that is at least sixty days delinquent and each Mortgage Loan
which has become real estate owned, through the final liquidation thereof;
provided that the Company shall only be required to provide information that is
readily accessible to its servicing personnel and is non-confidential.
(a) With respect to all Mortgage Loans which are serviced
at any time by the Company through a Subservicer, the
Company shall be entitled to rely for all purposes
hereunder, including for purposes of fulfilling its
reporting obligations under this Section 2.01 on the
accuracy and completeness of any information provided
to it by the applicable Subservicer.
Section 2.02 Purchaser's Election to Delay Foreclosure Proceedings.
1. The Purchaser directs the Company that in the event that the Company
does not receive written notice of the Purchaser's election pursuant to
subsection (b) below within 24 hours (exclusive of any intervening non-Business
Days) of transmission of the notice provided by the Company under Section
2.01(a)(ii), subject to extension as set forth in Section 2.02(b), the Company
shall proceed with the Commencement of Foreclosure in respect of such Mortgage
Loan in accordance with its normal foreclosure policies without further notice
to the Purchaser. Any foreclosure that has been initiated may be discontinued
(i) without notice to the Purchaser, if the Mortgage Loan has been brought
current or if a refinancing or prepayment occurs with respect to the Mortgage
Loan (including by means of a short payoff approved by the Company) (ii) with
notice to the Purchaser if the Company has reached the terms of a forbearance
agreement with the borrower. In such latter case the Company may complete such
forbearance agreement unless instructed otherwise by the Purchaser within one
Business Day of notification.
J-3
2. In connection with any Mortgage Loan with respect to which a notice
under Section 2.01(a)(ii) has been given to the Purchaser, the Purchaser may
elect, for reasonable cause as determined by the Purchaser, to instruct the
Company to delay the Commencement of Foreclosure until such term as the
Purchaser determines that the Company may proceed with the Commencement of
Foreclosure. Such election must be evidenced by written notice received within
24 hours (exclusive of any intervening non-Business Days) of transmission of the
notice provided by the Company under Section 2.01(a)(ii). Such 24 hour period
shall be extended for no longer than an additional four Business Days after the
receipt of the information if the Purchaser requests additional information
related to such foreclosure; provided, however that the Purchaser will have at
least one Business Day to respond to any requested additional information. Any
such additional information shall (i) not be confidential in nature and (ii) be
obtainable by the Company from existing reports, certificates or statements or
otherwise be readily accessible to its servicing personnel. The Purchaser agrees
that it has no right to deal with the Mortgagor. If the Company's normal
foreclosure policy includes acceptance of a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or short
payoff, the Purchaser will be notified and given one Business Day to respond.
3. With respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Purchaser has made
an Election to Delay Foreclosure, the Purchaser shall obtain a Current Appraisal
as soon as practicable, and shall provide the Company with a copy of such
Current Appraisal.
4. Within two Business Days of making any Election to Delay
Foreclosure, the Purchaser shall remit by wire transfer to the Company, for
deposit in the Collateral Fund, an amount, as calculated by the Company, equal
to the sum of (i) 125% of the greater of the outstanding Principal Balance of
the Mortgage Loan and the value shown in the Current Appraisal referred to in
subsection (c) above (or, if such Current Appraisal has not yet been obtained,
the Company's estimate thereof, in which case the required deposit under this
subsection shall be adjusted upon obtaining of such Current Appraisal), and (ii)
three months' interest on the Mortgage Loan at the applicable Mortgage Rate. If
any Election to Delay Foreclosure extends for a period in excess of three months
(such excess period being referred to herein as the "Excess Period"), the
Purchaser shall remit by wire transfer in advance to the Company for deposit in
the Collateral Fund the amount, as calculated by the Company, equal to interest
on the Mortgage Loan at the applicable Mortgage Rate for the Excess Period. The
terms of this Agreement shall no longer apply to the servicing of any Mortgage
Loan upon the failure of the Purchaser to deposit the above amounts relating to
the Mortgage Loan within two Business Days of the Election to Delay Foreclosure.
5. With respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Purchaser has made
an Election to Delay Foreclosure, the Company may withdraw from the Collateral
Fund from time to time amounts necessary to reimburse the Company for all
Advances and Liquidation Expenses thereafter made by the Company as Servicer in
accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. To the extent that the
amount of any such Liquidation Expense is determined by the Company based on
estimated costs, and the actual costs are subsequently determined to be higher,
the Company may withdraw the additional amount from the Collateral Fund. In the
event that the Mortgage Loan is brought current by the Mortgagor and the
foreclosure action is discontinued, the amounts so withdrawn from the Collateral
Fund shall be redeposited therein as and to the extent that reimbursement
therefor from amounts paid by the Mortgagor is not prohibited pursuant to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Except as provided in the preceding sentence,
amounts withdrawn from the Collateral Fund to cover Advances and Liquidation
Expenses shall not be redeposited therein or otherwise reimbursed to the
Purchaser. If and when any such Mortgage Loan is brought current by the
Mortgagor, all amounts remaining in the Collateral Fund in respect of such
Mortgage Loan (after adjustment for all withdrawals and deposits pursuant to
this subsection) shall be released to the Purchaser.
J-4
6. With respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Purchaser has made
an Election to Delay Foreclosure, the Company shall continue to service the
Mortgage Loan in accordance with its customary procedures (other than the delay
in Commencement of Foreclosure as provided herein). If and when the Purchaser
shall notify the Company that it believes that it is appropriate to do so, the
Company shall proceed with the Commencement of Foreclosure. In any event, if the
Mortgage Loan is not brought current by the Mortgagor by the time the loan
becomes 6 months delinquent, the Purchaser's election shall no longer be
effective and at the Purchaser's option, either (i) the Purchaser shall purchase
the Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at a purchase price equal to the fair
market value as shown on the Current Appraisal, to be paid by (x) applying any
balance in the Collateral Fund to such purchase price, and (y) to the extent of
any deficiency, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Company
or Trustee; or (ii) the Company shall proceed with the Commencement of
Foreclosure.
7. Upon the occurrence of a liquidation with respect to any Mortgage
Loan as to which the Purchaser made an Election to Delay Foreclosure and as to
which the Company proceeded with the Commencement of Foreclosure in accordance
with subsection (f) above, the Company shall calculate the amount, if any, by
which the value shown on the Current Appraisal obtained under subsection (c)
exceeds the actual sales price obtained for the related Mortgaged Property (or
stock allocated to a dwelling unit in the case of a Co-op Loan) (net of
Liquidation Expenses and accrued interest related to the extended foreclosure
period), and the Company shall withdraw the amount of such excess from the
Collateral Fund, shall remit the same to the Trust Fund and in its capacity as
Servicer shall apply such amount as additional Liquidation Proceeds pursuant to
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. After making such withdrawal, all amounts
remaining in the Collateral Fund in respect of such Mortgage Loan (after
adjustment for all withdrawals and deposits pursuant to subsection (e)) shall be
released to the Purchaser.
Section 2.03 Purchaser's Election to Commence Foreclosure Proceedings.
1. In connection with any Mortgage Loan identified in a report under
Section 2.01(a)(i)(B), the Purchaser may elect, for reasonable cause as
determined by the Purchaser, to instruct the Company to proceed with the
Commencement of Foreclosure as soon as practicable. Such election must be
evidenced by written notice received by the Company by 5:00 p.m., New York City
time, on the third Business Day following the delivery of such report under
Section 2.01(a)(i).
2. Within two Business Days of making any Election to Foreclose, the
Purchaser shall remit to the Company, for deposit in the Collateral Fund, an
amount, as calculated by the Company, equal to 125% of the current Principal
Balance of the Mortgage Loan and three months' interest on the Mortgage Loan at
the applicable Mortgage Rate. If and when any such Mortgage Loan is brought
current by the Mortgagor, all amounts in the Collateral Fund in respect of such
Mortgage Loan shall be released to the Purchaser. The terms of this Agreement
shall no longer apply to the servicing of any Mortgage Loan upon the failure of
the Purchaser to deposit the above amounts relating to the Mortgage Loans within
two Business Days at the Election to Foreclose.
3. With respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Purchaser has made
an Election to Foreclose, the Company shall continue to service the Mortgage
Loan in accordance with its customary procedures (other than to proceed with the
Commencement of Foreclosure as provided herein). In connection therewith, the
Company shall have the same rights to make withdrawals for Advances and
Liquidation Expenses from the Collateral Fund as are provided under Section
2.02(e), and the Company shall make reimbursements thereto to the limited extent
provided under such subsection. The Company shall not be required to proceed
with the Commencement of Foreclosure if (i) the same is stayed as a result of
the Mortgagor's bankruptcy or is otherwise barred by applicable law, or to the
extent that all legal conditions precedent thereto have not yet been complied
with or (ii) the Company believes there is a breach of representation or
J-5
warranties by the Company, which may result in a repurchase or substitution of
such Mortgage Loan, or (iii) the Company reasonably believes the Mortgaged
Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan) may be
contaminated with or affected by hazardous wastes or hazardous substances (and
the Company supplies the Purchaser with information supporting such belief). The
Company will repurchase or substitute a Mortgage Loan pursuant to the preceding
clause (ii) within the time period specified in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement. Any foreclosure that has been initiated may be discontinued (i)
without notice to the Purchaser if the Mortgage Loan has been brought current or
if a refinancing or prepayment occurs with respect to the Mortgage Loan
(including by means of a short payoff approved by the Company), or (ii) with
notice to the Purchaser if the Company has reached the terms of a forbearance
agreement unless instructed otherwise by the Purchaser within two Business Days
of notification.
4. Upon the occurrence of a liquidation with respect to any Mortgage
Loan as to which the Purchaser made an Election to Foreclose and as to which the
Company proceeded with the Commencement of Foreclosure in accordance with
subsection (c) above, the Company shall calculate the amount, if any, by which
the Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan at the time of liquidation (plus all
unreimbursed Advances and Liquidation Expenses in connection therewith other
than those paid from the Collateral Fund) exceeds the actual sales price
obtained for the related Mortgaged Property (or stock allocated to a dwelling
unit in the case of a Co-op Loan), and the Company shall withdraw the amount of
such excess from the Collateral Fund, shall remit the same to the Trust Fund and
in its capacity as Servicer shall apply such amount as additional Liquidation
Proceeds pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. After making such
withdrawal, all amounts remaining in the Collateral Fund (after adjustment for
all withdrawals and deposits pursuant to subsection (c)) in respect of such
Mortgage Loan shall be released to the Purchaser.
Section 2.04 Termination.
1. With respect to all Mortgage Loans included in the Trust Fund, the
Purchaser's rights to make any Election to Delay Foreclosure or any Election to
Foreclose and the Company's obligations under Section 2.01 shall terminate (i)
at such time as the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class B-5 Certificates
has been reduced to zero, (ii) if the greater of (x) ___% (or such lower or
higher percentages that represents the Company's actual historical loss
experience with respect to the Mortgage Loans in the related pool) of the
aggregate principal balance of all Mortgage Loans that are in foreclosure or are
more than 90 days delinquent on a contractual basis and REO properties or if the
aggregate amount that the Company estimates will be required to be withdrawn
from the Collateral Fund with respect to Mortgage Loans as to which the
Purchaser has made an Election to Delay Foreclosure or an Election to Foreclose
exceeds (z) the Outstanding Certificate Principal Balance of the Class B-5
Certificates, or (iii) upon any transfer by the Purchaser of any interest (other
than the minority interest therein, but only if the transferee provides written
acknowledgment to the Company of the Purchaser's right hereunder and that such
transferee will have no rights hereunder) in the Class B-5 Certificates (whether
or not such transfer is registered under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement),
including any such transfer in connection with a termination of the Trust Fund.
Except as set forth above, this Agreement and the respective rights, obligations
and responsibilities of the Purchaser and the Company hereunder shall terminate
upon the later to occur of (i) the final liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan
as to which the Purchaser made any Election to Delay Foreclosure or any Election
to Foreclose and the withdrawal of all remaining amounts in the Collateral Fund
as provided herein and (ii) ten (10) Business Day's notice.
J-6
2. Purchaser's rights pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.03 of this
Agreement shall terminate with respect to a Mortgage loan as to which the
Purchaser has exercised its rights under Section 2.02 or 2.03 hereof, upon
Purchaser's failure to deposit any amounts required pursuant to Section 2.02(d)
or 2.03(b).
3. Neither the Servicer nor any of its directors, officers, employees
or agents shall be under any liability for any action taken or for refraining
from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for
errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the
Servicer or any such Person against any liability which would otherwise be
imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the
performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and
duties hereunder. The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent
thereof may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly
executed and submitted by an Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.
ARTICLE III
COLLATERAL FUND; SECURITY INTEREST

Class B-5." Amounts in the Collateral Fund shall continue to be the property of

meaning of the REMIC Provisions, beneficially owned by the Purchaser, who shall
report all income, gain or loss with respect thereto. Any amounts transferred
from the Trust Fund to the Collateral Fund shall be deemed to be transferred to
the Purchaser, as beneficial owner of the Collateral Fund. In no event shall the
Purchaser (i) take or cause the Trustee or the Company to take any action that
could cause any REMIC established under the Trust Agreement to fail to qualify
as a REMIC or cause the imposition on any such REMIC of any "prohibited
transaction" or "prohibited contribution" taxes or (ii) cause the Trustee or the
Company to fail to take any action necessary to maintain the status of any such
REMIC as a REMIC.
Section 3.02. Collateral Fund Permitted Investments.
1. The Company shall, at the written direction of the Purchaser invest
the funds in the Collateral Fund in Collateral Fund Permitted Investments. Such
direction shall not be changed more frequently than quarterly. In the absence of

Fund Permitted Investment shall be deposited in the Collateral Fund upon
receipt. All costs and realized losses associated with the purchase and sale of
Collateral Fund Permitted Investments shall be borne by the Purchaser and the
amount of net realized losses shall be deposited by the Purchaser in the
Collateral Fund. The Company shall periodically (but not more frequently than
monthly) distribute to the Purchaser upon request an amount of cash, to the
extent cash is available therefor in the Collateral Fund, equal to the amount by
which the balance of the Collateral Fund, after giving effect to all other
distributions to be made from the Collateral Fund on such date, exceeds the
Required Collateral Fund Balance. Any amounts so distributed shall be released
from the lien and security interest of this Agreement.
Section 3.03 Grant of Security Interest.
1. The Purchaser grants to the Company and the Trustee for the benefit

Purchaser's right, title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired,
in and to: (1) the Collateral Fund, (2) all amounts deposited in the Collateral
Fund and Collateral Fund Permitted Investments in which such amounts are
invested (and the distributions and proceeds of such investments) and (3) all
cash and non-cash proceeds of any of the foregoing, including proceeds of the
voluntary or involuntary conversion thereof (all of the foregoing collectively,
the "Collateral").
2. The Purchaser acknowledges the lien on and security interest in the
Collateral for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Purchaser shall take
all actions requested by the Company or the Trustee as may be reasonably
necessary to perfect the security interest created under this Agreement in the
Collateral and cause it to be prior to all other security interests and liens,
including the execution and delivery to the Company for filing of appropriate
financing statements in accordance with applicable law. The Company shall file
appropriate continuation statements, or appoint an agent on its behalf to file
such statements, in accordance with applicable law.
Section 3.04 Collateral Shortfalls.
In the event that amounts on deposit in the Collateral Fund at any time
are insufficient to cover any withdrawals therefrom that the Company or the
Trustee is then entitled to make hereunder, the Purchaser shall be obligated to

become due and (e) we will not cause income from the Class A-R Certificate to be
attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base (within the

4. We acknowledge that we will be the beneficial owner of the Class A-R
Certificate and:*/
______ The Class A-R Certificate will be registered in our name.

trust, (or, to the extent provided in applicable Treasury regulations, certain
trusts in existence on August 20, 1996 which are eligible to elect to be treated

render the transfer of any interest in the Class A-R Certificate to us
absolutely null and void and shall cause no rights in the Class A-R Certificate
to vest in us.
6. We agree that in the event that at some future time we wish to
transfer any interest in the Class A-R Certificate, we will transfer such
interest in the Class A-R Certificate only (a) to a transferee that (i) is not a
disqualified organization and is not purchasing such interest in the Class A-R
Certificate on behalf of a disqualified organization, (ii) is a U.S. person and
(iii) has delivered to CMFC a letter in the form of this letter (including the
affidavit appended hereto) and, if requested by CMFC, an opinion of counsel (in
a form acceptable to CMFC) that the proposed transfer will not cause the
interest in the Class A-R Certificate to be held by a disqualified organization
or a person who is not a U.S. person or (b) with the written consent of CMFC.
7. We hereby designate JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as our fiduciary to
act as the tax matters person for the Series 2005-S2 REMICs.
