the Certificates from the Trustee as consideration for the Depositor's transfer
to the Trust Fund of the Mortgage Loans and the other property constituting the
Trust Fund. The Depositor has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this
Agreement to provide for the conveyance to the Trustee of the Mortgage Loans and
the other property constituting the Trust Fund. All covenants and agreements
made by the Originator in the Mortgage Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement and in

benefit of the Holders from time to time of the Certificates. The Depositor and
the Trustee are entering into this Agreement, and the Trustee is accepting the
Trust Fund created hereby, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged.
As provided herein, the Trustee shall elect that the Trust Fund be

investment conduits (each a "REMIC" or, in the alternative, "REMIC 1," "REMIC
2," "REMIC 3," "REMIC 4" and the "Upper Tier REMIC," respectively) in a tiered
structure. The Certificates, other than the Class A-R Certificate, shall
represent ownership of regular interests in the Upper Tier REMIC. In addition to
representing ownership of a REMIC regular interest, (i) each of the Class A-1
Certificates represents the right to receive payments in respect of interest
accruals on the Class A-1 Certificates at rates in excess of the Pool 1 Adjusted
Net WAC, including all payments in respect of Basis Risk Shortfalls and Unpaid
Basis Risk Shortfalls, (ii) each of the Class A-2 Certificates represents the
right to receive payments in respect of interest accruals on the Class A-2
Certificates at rates in excess of the Pool 2 Adjusted Net WAC, including all
payments in respect of Basis Risk Shortfalls and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfalls,
and (iii) each of the Class B-1, Class B-2 and Class B-3 Certificates represents
the right to receive payments in respect of Basis Risk Shortfalls and Unpaid
Basis Risk Shortfalls as provided in Section 5.06. The Class A-R Certificate
represents the sole class of residual interest in each of REMIC 1, REMIC 2,
REMIC 3, REMIC 4 and the Upper Tier REMIC.
The Upper Tier REMIC shall hold as its assets the several classes of
uncertificated REMIC 4 Regular Interests and the uncertificated REMIC 3 IO
Classes. REMIC 4 shall hold as its assets the several classes of uncertificated
REMIC 3 Regular Interests other than the REMIC 3 IO Classes. REMIC 3 shall hold
as its assets the several classes of uncertificated REMIC 2 Regular Interests.
REMIC 2 shall hold as its assets the several uncertificated classes of REMIC
1 Regular Interests. REMIC 1 shall hold as its assets the property of the Trust
Fund other than the REMIC 1 Interests, the REMIC 2 Interests, the REMIC 3
Interests and the REMIC 4 Interests. Each Upper Tier REMIC Regular Interest is
hereby designated as a regular interest in the Upper Tier REMIC for purposes of
the REMIC Provisions. Each REMIC 4 Regular Interest is hereby designated as a
regular interest in REMIC 4 for purposes of the REMIC provisions. Each REMIC 3
Regular Interest is hereby designated as a regular interest in REMIC 3 for
purposes of the REMIC provisions. Each REMIC 2 Regular Interest is hereby
designated as a regular interest in REMIC 2 for purposes of the REMIC
provisions. Each REMIC 1 Regular Interest is hereby designated as a regular
interest in REMIC 1 for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Class LT1-R
Interest is hereby designated as the sole class of residual interest in REMIC 1
for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Class LT2-R Interest is hereby
designated as the sole class of residual interest in REMIC 2 for purposes of the
REMIC provisions. The Class LT3-R Interest is hereby designated as the sole
class of residual interest in REMIC 3 for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The
Class LT4-R Interest is hereby designated as the sole class of residual interest
in REMIC 4 for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Class A-R Certificate,
other than the portion thereof representing the right to receive payments in
respect of the Class LT1-R Interest, the Class LT2-R Interest, the Class LT3-R
Interest or the Class LT4-R Interest, is hereby designated as the sole class of
residual interest in the Upper Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC provisions
and will also represent the Class LT1-R Interest, the LT2-R Interest, the Class
LT3-R Interest and the Class LT4-R Interest.
THE REMIC 1 INTERESTS
The following table sets forth (or describes) the class designation,
interest rate, initial principal amount, and related pool of Mortgage Loans for
each class of REMIC 1 Interests:
Interest Related Mortgage Pool or
Class Designation Principal Amount Rate Pools
----------------- ---------------- ---- -----
LT11A $ 247,551.3074 (2) Pool 1
LT11B $ 7,985,502.3074 (3) Pool 1
LT12A $ 64,007.9224 (2) Pool 2
LT12B $ 2,064,023.9224 (4) Pool 2
LT1Z $ 994,591,537.5204 (2) Pool 1 and Pool 2
LT1-R (1) (1) N/A
---------------
(1) The Class LT1-R Interest represents the sole class of residual interest in
REMIC 1 and has neither a principal amount nor an interest rate. The Class
LT1-R Interest shall be represented by the Class A-R Certificate.
(2) The Class LT11A Interest, the Class LT12A Interest and the Class LT1Z
Interest shall have an interest rate for each Distribution Date (and the
related accrual period) equal to the Net WAC.
(3) The Class LT11B Interest shall have an interest rate for any Distribution
Date (and the related accrual period) equal to the Pool 1 Net WAC.
(4) The Class LT12B Interest shall have an interest rate for any Distribution

2
On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall first pay or charge as an
expense of REMIC 1 all expenses of the Trust for such Distribution Date.
Principal distributions shall be deemed to be made on the REMIC 1 Interests
first, so as to keep the uncertificated principal balance of each REMIC 1
Interest ending with the designation "A" equal to 1% of the excess of (x) the
aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Mortgage Pool
over (y) the aggregate class principal amounts of the Certificates in the
Certificate Group related to such Mortgage Pool (except that if 1% of any such
excess is greater than the principal amount of the corresponding REMIC 1
Interest ending with the designation "A", the least amount of principal shall be
distributed to such REMIC 1 Interests such that the REMIC 1 Subordinated Balance
Ratio is maintained); second, to each REMIC 1 Interest ending with the
designation "B" so as to keep the uncertificated principal balance of each such
REMIC 1 Interest equal to 1% of the aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage
Loans in the related Mortgage Pool and finally, all remaining principal amounts
shall be distributed in respect of the Class LT1Z Interest. Realized Losses with
respect to principal shall be allocated among the REMIC 1 Interests first, so as
to keep the uncertificated principal balance of each REMIC 1 Interest ending
with the designation "A" equal to 1% of the excess of (x) the aggregate
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Mortgage Pool over (y)
the aggregate class principal amounts of the Certificates in the Certificate
Group related to such Mortgage Pool (except that if 1% of any such excess is
greater than the principal amount of the corresponding REMIC 1 Interest ending
with the designation "A", the least amount of losses shall be allocated to such
REMIC 1 Interests such that the REMIC 1 Subordinated Balance Ratio is
maintained); second, to each REMIC 1 Interest ending with the designation "B" so
as to keep the uncertificated principal balance of each such REMIC 1 Interest
equal to 1% of the aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the
related Mortgage Pool and finally, all remaining Realized Losses with respect to
principal shall be distributed in respect of the Class LT1Z Interest.
All computations with respect to the REMIC 1 Interests shall be
computed to eight decimal places.

---------------
(1) The Class LT2-R interest represents the sole class of residual interest in
REMIC 2 and has neither a principal amount nor an interest rate. The Class
LT2-R Interest shall be represented by the Class A-R Certificate.
(2) The interest rate for each of the Class LT21A1 Interest through the Class
LT21A48 Interest and the Class LT21AR Interest for any Distribution Date
(and the related Accrual Period) is a per annum rate equal to the Pool 1 Net
WAC.
(3) The interest rate for each of the Class LT22A1 Interest through the Class
LT22A48 Interest for any Distribution Date (and the related Accrual Period)
is a per annum rate equal to the Pool 2 Net WAC.
(4) The interest rate for the Class LT2B Interest for any Distribution Date (and
the related Accrual Period) is a per annum rate equal to the Subordinate Net
WAC, which is the numerical equivalent of the weighted average of the
interest rates on the Class LT11A Interest and the Class LT12A (treating,
for purposes of computing this weighted average, the Class LT11A Interest as
subject to a cap and a floor equal to the interest rate on the Class LT11B
Interest and the Class LT12A Interest as subject to a cap and a floor equal
to the interest rate on the Class LT12B Interest).
On each Distribution Date principal payments will be deemed made and
Realized Losses with respect to principal will be allocated among the REMIC 2
Regular Interests as follows: (i) an amount equal to the total principal
distributed in respect of the Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3, Class B-4, Class
B-5 and Class B-6 Certificates will be treated as having been distributed in
respect of the Class LT2B Interest in reduction of its principal amount
(treating the initial Class Principal Amount of the Class B-6 Certificates, for
purposes of this clause (i), as being $3,518,922.98 and treating the first $.98
of payments to the Class A-R Certificate under Section 5.01(a)(vi) from
principal payments on the Mortgage Loans as paid in respect of the Class B-6
Certificates), (ii) the amount of all Realized Losses in respect of principal
allocated to the Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3, Class B-4, Class B-5 and Class
B-6 Certificates will be allocated to the Class LT2B Interest in reduction of
its principal amount (treating the initial Class Principal Amount of the Class
B-6 Certificates, for purposes of this clause (ii), as being $3,518,922.98 and
disregarding Section 5.03(c) hereof), (iii) an amount equal to the total
principal distributed in respect of the Class A-R Certificates will be treated
as having been distributed in respect of the Class LT21AR Interest in reduction
of its principal amount, (iv) the amount of all Realized Losses in respect of
principal allocated to the Class A-R Certificates will be allocated to the Class
LT21AR Interest in reduction of its principal amount, (v) an amount equal to the
total principal distributed in respect of the Class A-1 Certificates will be
treated as having been distributed in the aggregate in respect of the Class
LT21A1 Interest through the
6
Class LT21A48 Interest in reduction of their principal amount, (vi) the amount
of all Realized Losses in respect of principal allocated to the Class A-1
Certificates will be allocated in the aggregate to the Class LT21A1 Interest
through the Class LT21A48 Interest in reduction of their principal amount, (vii)
an amount equal to the total principal distributed in respect of the Class A-2
Certificates will be treated as having been distributed in the aggregate in
respect of the Class LT22A1 Interest through the Class LT22A48 Interest in
reduction of their principal amount and (viii) the amount of all Realized Losses
in respect of principal allocated to the Class A-2 Certificates will be
allocated in the aggregate to the Class LT22A1 Interest through the Class
LT22A48 Interest in reduction of their principal amount. All principal deemed
paid and Realized Losses allocated to the Class LT21A1 Interest through the
Class LT21A48 Interest shall be deemed paid or allocated first to the Class
LT21A1 Interest until its principal balance has been reduced to zero and to such
other REMIC 1 Regular Interests in numerical order until the principal balance
of each in turn has been reduced to zero. All principal deemed paid and Realized
Losses allocated to the Class LT22A1 Interest through the Class LT22A48 Interest
shall be deemed paid or allocated first to the Class LT22A1 Interest until its
principal balance has been reduced to zero and to such other REMIC 1 Regular
Interests in numerical order until the principal balance of each in turn has
been reduced to zero.

the Senior Prepayment Percentage for a Mortgage Pool unless both Step Down
Conditions are satisfied; and provided, further, that if on any such
Distribution Date the Pro Rata Senior Percentage exceeds the initial Pro Rata
Senior Percentage, the Senior Prepayment Percentage for a Mortgage Pool for that
Distribution Date shall again equal 100%.

to the review provided for in Section 2.02, it has received and shall hold the
Trust Fund, as trustee, in trust, for the benefit and use of the Holders of the
Certificates and for the purposes and subject to the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement, and, concurrently with such receipt, has caused to be
executed, authenticated and delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor, in
exchange for the Trust Fund, Certificates in the authorized denominations
evidencing the entire ownership of the Trust Fund. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Agreement, the Trust Fund shall not obtain title to or
beneficial ownership of any Additional Collateral as a result of or in lieu of
the disposition thereof or otherwise.
The foregoing sale, transfer, assignment, set-over, deposit and
conveyance does not and is not intended to result in the creation or assumption
by the Trustee of any obligation of the Depositor, the Originator, the Seller or
any other Person in connection with the Mortgage Loans or any other agreement or
instrument relating thereto except as specifically set forth therein.
In connection with such transfer and assignment of the Mortgage Loans,
the Depositor shall deliver to, and deposit with, or cause to be delivered to
and deposited with, the Trustee, the documents or instruments described in
Section 2 of the Custody Agreement with respect to each Mortgage Loan; provided
that in Section 2a thereof, a lost note affidavit (including a copy of the
original Mortgage Note) may be delivered in lieu of the original Mortgage Note
(each a "Trustee Mortgage File") (the Custody Agreement to be deemed modified by
the foregoing) so transferred and assigned.
(b) The Depositor shall cause the Mortgage Notes with respect to
each Mortgage Loan to be completed either (A) in blank, without recourse, or (B)
endorsed to "Xxxxx Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association, as Trustee of the
Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Mortgage Investors Trust Series MLCC 2003-C, Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, without recourse" and the Depositor shall cause Assignments of
Mortgage with respect to each Mortgage Loan other than a Cooperative Mortgage

copy of such title insurance policy to the Trustee, as promptly as practicable
after the execution and delivery hereof, but in any case within 270 days of the
Closing Date.
(d) For Mortgage Loans (if any) that have been prepaid in full
after the Cut-off Date and prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor, in lieu of
delivering the above Trustee Mortgage File, shall deliver to the Trustee an
Officer's Certificate which shall include a statement to the effect that all
amounts received in connection with such prepayment that are required to be
deposited in the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 4.01 have been so
deposited. All original documents that are not delivered to the Trustee shall be
held by the Servicer in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders.
Section 2.02 Acceptance of Trust Fund by Trustee; Review of
Documentation for Trust Fund.
(a) The Trustee, by execution and delivery hereof, acknowledges
receipt by it of the Trustee Mortgage Files pertaining to the Mortgage Loans
listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, subject to review thereof as provided
herein. Upon receipt by the Trustee of each Trustee Mortgage File, the Trustee
shall review each Trustee Mortgage File in accordance with the review procedures
set forth in Section 2 of Amendment No. 1 to the Custody Agreement.
In making such verifications, the Trustee may rely conclusively on the
Mortgage Loan Schedule and the documents constituting the Trustee Mortgage File,
and the Trustee shall have no obligation to independently verify the validity,
enforceability, recordability, sufficiency, due authorization or genuineness of
any document in any Trustee Mortgage File or any Mortgage Loan hereunder, nor
the collectibility, insurability, effectiveness or suitability of any Mortgage
Loan hereunder. The Trustee shall prepare an initial certification to be
delivered to the Depositor, the Seller and the Servicer on the Closing Date in
the form annexed hereto as Exhibit K (the "Initial Certification") with respect
to the Mortgage Loans (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage
Loan specifically identified on the Schedule of Exceptions attached to the
Initial Certification (the "Schedule of Exceptions") as not covered by such
Initial Certification) listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. If the Trustee
determines from such verification that any discrepancy or deficiency exists with
respect to a Trustee Mortgage File, the Trustee shall note such omission,
discrepancy or deficiency on the Schedule of Exceptions attached to the Initial
Certification, and shall deliver a copy (which shall be electronic, if
requested) of the Schedule of Exceptions to the Depositor on the Closing Date.
During the life of the Mortgage Loans (while subject to this Agreement), in the
event the Trustee discovers any defect with respect to any Trustee Mortgage
File, the Trustee shall give written specification of such defect to the
Depositor. Except as specifically provided above, the Trustee shall be under no
duty to review, inspect or examine such documents to determine that any of them
are enforceable or appropriate for their prescribed purpose.
68
(b) If in the course of the review described in paragraph (a) of
this Section 2.02 the Trustee discovers any document or documents constituting a
part of a Trustee Mortgage File that is missing, does not appear regular on its
face (i.e., is mutilated, damaged, defaced, torn or otherwise physically
altered) or appears to be unrelated to the Mortgage Loans identified in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule (each, a "Material Defect"), the Trustee, upon
discovering such Material Defect shall promptly identify the Mortgage Loan to
which such Material Defect relates to the Depositor, the Seller and the
Servicer. Within 90 days of its receipt of such notice (but in no case prior to
the 270th day following the Closing Date), the Depositor shall be required to
cure such Material Defect (and, in such event, the Depositor shall provide the
Trustee with an Officer's Certificate confirming that such cure has been
effected). If the Servicer notifies the Depositor and the Trustee in writing
that (i) a loss has occurred and (ii) such loss relates to a Mortgage Loan for
which the Trustee previously identified a Material Defect or for which the
Servicer has identified a Material Defect and the Depositor has not cured such
Material Defect, then the Depositor shall repurchase such Mortgage Loan at the
Purchase Price therefore in the event that such loss would, if such Mortgage
Loan is not repurchased by the Depositor, constitute a Realized Loss and such
loss is attributable to the failure of the Depositor to have cured such Material
Defect. A loss shall be deemed to be attributable to the failure of the
Depositor to cure a Material Defect if, as determined by the Depositor, upon
mutual agreement with the Trustee each acting in good faith, absent such
Material Defect, such loss would not have been incurred. Within the two-year
period following the Closing Date, the Depositor may, in lieu of repurchasing a
Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.02(b), substitute for such Mortgage
Loan a Replacement Mortgage Loan subject to the provisions of Section 2.04.
(c) Within 270 days following the Closing Date, the Trustee shall
deliver to the Depositor, the Seller and the Servicer, a final certification
substantially in the form attached as Exhibit L (the "Final Certification")
evidencing the completeness of the Trustee Mortgage Files in its possession or
control, with any exceptions noted on the Scheduled of Exceptions attached to
the Final Certification.
(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to constitute an
assumption by the Trust Fund, the Trustee or the Certificateholders of any
unsatisfied duty, claim or other liability on any Mortgage Loan or to any
Mortgagor.
(e) Upon execution of this Agreement, the Depositor hereby
delivers to the Trustee and the Trustee acknowledges receipt of the Servicing
Agreement and the Master Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.
Section 2.03 Representations and Warranties of the Depositor.
The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Certificateholders as of the Closing Date or such other date as
is specified, that:
(i) the Depositor is a corporation duly organized,

the provisions of any law, governmental rule, regulation, judgment,
decree or order binding on the Depositor or its properties or the
certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Depositor;
(iii) the execution, delivery and performance by the
Depositor of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby do not require the consent or approval of, the

authority or agency, except such as has been obtained, given, effected
or taken prior to the date hereof;
(iv) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered
by the Depositor and, assuming due authorization, execution and
delivery by the Trustee, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of
the Depositor enforceable against it in accordance with its terms
except as such enforceability may be subject to (A) applicable
bankruptcy and insolvency laws and other similar laws affecting the
enforcement of the rights of creditors generally and (B) general
principles of equity regardless of whether such enforcement is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;
(v) there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending

respect to any other matter which in the judgment of the Depositor will

business, assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise, or
adversely affect its ability to perform its obligations under this
Agreement;

the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee, the Depositor was the sole owner of

abstract of title delivered to the originator of such Mortgage Loan,
and (3) such other matters to which like properties are commonly

70
and authority, subject to no interest or participation of, or agreement
with, any other party, to sell and assign each Mortgage Loan pursuant

(viii) The Mortgage Loans constitute "instruments" within
the meaning of the applicable UCC;
(ix) Other than the security interest granted to the
Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, the Depositor has not pledged,
assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed
any of the Mortgage Loans. The Depositor has not authorized the filing

the termination of this Agreement and shall not be waived by any party hereto.
71
Section 2.04 Discovery of Breach; Repurchase or Substitution of
Mortgage Loans.
(a) Pursuant to Sections 5(a) and 5(b) of the Master Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement, the Originator has made certain representations and
warranties as to the characteristics of the Mortgage Loans (such representations
and warranties are set out in full in Schedule B of this Agreement) as of the
Closing Date and the conveyance thereof from the Originator to the Seller and
then to the Depositor, for the benefit of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders, and the Originator has agreed to comply with the provisions
of this Section 2.04 in respect of a breach of any of such representations and
warranties.
It is understood and agreed that (i) the representations and warranties
of the Depositor set forth in Section 2.03 and (ii) the representations and
warranties of the Originator set forth in Sections 5(a) and 5(b) of the Master
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall survive delivery of the Trustee Mortgage
Files and the Assignment of Mortgage of each Mortgage Loan to the Trustee and
shall continue throughout the term of this Agreement. Upon discovery (i) by the
Depositor, the Seller, the Originator or the Trustee of a breach of any
representation or warranty made by Depositor under Section 2.03 which materially
adversely affects the value of a Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the
Certificateholder (a "Defective Mortgage Loan") or (ii) by the Depositor, the
Originator or the Seller of the breach by the Originator of any representation
or warranty under the Master Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any
Mortgage Loan, which breach results in the Mortgage Loan being a "Defective
Mortgage Loan" (each of such parties hereby agreeing to give written notice of
such breach to the Trustee and the other of such parties), the Trustee, or its
designee, shall promptly notify the Depositor in writing of such breach and
request that the Depositor cure or cause the cure of such breach within 90 days
from the date that the Depositor discovered or was notified of such breach, and
if the Depositor does not cure such breach in all material respects during such
period, the Trustee shall (i) in the case of an uncured breach under Section
2.03, cause the Depositor to repurchase such Defective Mortgage Loan at the
Purchase Price and (ii) in the case of an uncured breach by the Originator under
the Master Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, cause the Depositor to enforce the
Originator's obligation under the Master Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and
cause the Originator to repurchase that Defective Mortgage Loan from the Trust
Fund at the Purchase Price, in each case on or prior to the Determination Date
following the expiration of such 90-day period (subject to Section 2.04(b)
below); provided, however, that, in connection with any such breach under clause
(ii) above that could not reasonably have been cured within such 90-day period,
if the Originator shall have commenced to cure such breach within such 90-day
period, the Originator shall be permitted to proceed thereafter diligently and
expeditiously to cure the same within an additional 90-day period. The Purchase
Price for the repurchased Defective Mortgage Loan shall be deposited in the
related Distribution Account, and the Trustee, or its designee, upon receipt of
such deposit and two copies of a Request for Release with respect to such
Defective Mortgage Loan, shall release to the Originator, the related Trustee
Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or
assignment, in each case without recourse, representation or warranties, as
either party shall furnish to it and as shall be necessary to vest in such party
any Defective Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and the Trustee, or its
designee, shall have no further responsibility with regard to such Trustee
Mortgage File (it being understood that the Trustee shall have no responsibility
for determining the sufficiency of such assignment for its intended purpose). In
lieu of repurchasing any such Defective Mortgage Loan as provided above, the
Originator may cause such Defective Mortgage
72
Loan to be removed from the Trust Fund (in which case it shall become a Deleted
Mortgage Loan) and substitute one or more Replacement Mortgage Loans in the
manner and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.04(b) below. It is
understood and agreed that the obligation of the Originator to cure or to
repurchase (or to substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a breach has
occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against the
Originator respecting such breach available to the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders. With respect to the representations and warranties described
in Schedule B which are made to the best of the Originator's knowledge, if it is
discovered by any of the Depositor, the Originator or the Trustee that the
substance of such representation and warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy
materially and adversely affects the value of the relate Mortgage Loan, then
notwithstanding the Originator's lack of knowledge with respect to the substance
of such representation and warranty, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of
the applicable representation or warranty.
(b) Any substitution of Replacement Mortgage Loans for Deleted
Mortgage Loans made pursuant to Section 2.04(a) above must be effected prior to
the last Business Day that is within two years after the Closing Date. As to any
Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Originator substitutes a Replacement
Mortgage Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be effected by delivering to the
Trustee for such Replacement Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Mortgage Note, the
Mortgage, the Assignment to the Trustee, and such other documents and
agreements, with all necessary endorsements thereon, together with an Officers'
Certificate stating that each such Replacement Mortgage Loan satisfies the
definition thereof and specifying the Substitution Amount (as described below),
if any, in connection with such substitution. The Trustee shall acknowledge
receipt for such Replacement Mortgage Loan and, within 45 days thereafter, shall
review such Mortgage Documents as specified in this Agreement under Section
2.02(a) and deliver to the Depositor, with respect to such Replacement Mortgage
Loans, a certification substantially in the form of a revised Initial
Certification, with any exceptions noted thereon. Within one year of the date of
substitution, the Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor a certification
substantially in the form of a revised Final Certification, with respect to such
Replacement Mortgage Loans, with any exceptions noted thereon. Monthly Payments
due with respect to Replacement Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution
shall not be included as part of the Trust Fund and shall be retained by the
Originator. For the month of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders
shall reflect the collections and recoveries in respect of such Deleted Mortgage
in the Due Period preceding the month of substitution and the Originator shall
thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently received in respect of
such Deleted Mortgage Loan. Upon such substitution, such Replacement Mortgage
Loan shall constitute part of the Trust Fund and shall be subject in all
respects to the terms of this Agreement and the Master Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement, including all representations and warranties thereof included in the
Master Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, in each case as of the date of
substitution.
For any month in which the Originator substitutes one or more
Replacement Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Trustee,
based upon information provided by the Servicer, shall determine the excess
(each, a "Substitution Amount"), if any, by which the aggregate Purchase Price
of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans exceeds the aggregate Stated Principal
Balance of the Replacement Mortgage Loans replacing such Deleted Mortgage Loans,
together with one month's interest on such excess amount at the applicable Net
Mortgage Rate. On the date of such substitution, the Originator shall deliver or
cause to be delivered to the
73
Servicer for deposit in the Custodial Account an amount equal to the related
Substitution Amount, if any, and the Trustee, upon receipt of the related
Replacement Mortgage Loan or Loans and two copies of a Request for Release with
respect to the Deleted Mortgage Loan or Loans, shall release to the Originator
the related Trustee Mortgage File or Files and shall execute and deliver such
instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the
Originator shall deliver to it and as shall be necessary to vest therein any
Deleted Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.
In addition, the Originator shall obtain at its own expense and deliver
to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution
(either specifically or as a class of transactions) shall not cause (a) any
federal tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund, including without limitation, any
federal tax imposed on "prohibited transactions" under Section 860F(a)(l) of the
Code or on "contributions after the startup date" under Section 860G(d)(l) of
the Code, or (b) any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at
any time that any Certificate is outstanding. If such Opinion of Counsel can not
be delivered, then such substitution may only be effected at such time as the
required Opinion of Counsel can be given.
(c) Upon discovery by the Originator, the Seller, the Depositor or
the Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a "qualified mortgage"
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such
fact shall within two Business Days give written notice thereof to the other
parties. In connection therewith, the Originator or Depositor, as applicable,
shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.04(b),
substitute one or more Replacement Mortgage Loans for the affected Mortgage Loan
within 90 days of the earlier of discovery or receipt of such notice with
respect to such affected Mortgage Loan. Any such repurchase or substitution
shall be made in the same manner as set forth in Section 2.04(a) above, if made
by the Originator. The Trustee shall re-convey to the Originator the Mortgage
Loan to be released pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on the same terms
and conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach of a
representation or warranty.
(d) The Originator indemnifies and holds the Trust Fund, the
Trustee, the Depositor and each Certificateholder harmless against any and all
taxes, claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and
related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Trust
Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor and any Certificateholder may sustain in
connection with any actions of such party relating to a repurchase of a Mortgage
Loan other than in compliance with the terms of this Section 2.04 and the Master
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, to the extent that any such action causes (i)
any federal or state tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund, including without
limitation, any federal tax imposed on "prohibited transactions" under Section
860F(a)(1) of the Code or on "contributions after the startup date" under
Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code, or (ii) any REMIC formed hereby to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding.
Section 2.05 Grant Clause.
(a) It is intended that the conveyance of the Depositor's right,
title and interest in and to property constituting the Trust Fund pursuant to
this Agreement shall constitute, and shall be construed as, a sale of such
property and not a grant of a security interest to secure a loan. However, if
such conveyance is deemed to be in respect of a loan, it is intended that: (1)
the
74
rights and obligations of the parties shall be established pursuant to the terms
of this Agreement; (2) the Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee for the
benefit of the Holders of the Certificates a first priority security interest in
all of the Depositor's right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now
owned or hereafter acquired, the Trust Fund and all proceeds of any and all
property constituting the Trust Fund to secure payment of the Certificates; and
(3) this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.
If such conveyance is deemed to be in respect of a loan and the trust created by
this Agreement terminates prior to the satisfaction of the claims of any Person
holding any Certificate, 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, and all proceeds shall be distributed as herein
provided.
(b) The Depositor shall, to the extent consistent with this
Agreement, take such reasonable actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if
this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans
and the other property described above, such security interest would be deemed
to be a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and
will be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement. The Depositor
will, at its own expense, make all initial filings on or about the Closing Date
and shall forward a copy of such filing or filings to the Trustee. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Depositor shall prepare and
forward for filing, or shall cause to be forwarded for filing, at the expense of
the Depositor, all filings necessary to maintain the effectiveness of any
original filings necessary under the relevant UCC to perfect the Trustee's
security interest in or lien on the Mortgage Loans and the other property
described above, including without limitation (x) continuation statements, and
(y) such other statements as may be occasioned by (1) any change of name of
Seller, the Depositor or the Trustee, (2) any change of location of the place of
business or the chief executive office of the Seller or the Depositor, (3) any
transfer of any interest of the Depositor in any Mortgage Loan or (4) any change
under the relevant UCC or other applicable laws. The Depositor shall not
organize under the law of any jurisdiction other than the State under which each
is organized as of the Closing Date (whether changing its jurisdiction of
organization or organizing under an additional jurisdiction) without giving 30
days prior written notice of such action to its immediate and intermediate
transferee, including the Trustee. Before effecting such change, the Depositor
proposing to change its jurisdiction of organization shall prepare and file in
the appropriate filing office any financing statements or other statements
necessary to continue the perfection of the interests of its immediate and
mediate transferees, including the Trustee, in the Mortgage Loans and the other
property described above. In connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, the Depositor authorizes its immediate or mediate transferee to
file in any filing office any initial financing statements, any amendments to
financing statements, any continuation statements, or any other statements or
filings described in this paragraph (b).
Section 2.06 Representation and Warranty of the Seller. The Seller
hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders as of the Closing Date that:
(i) it purchased the Mortgage Loans from the Originator
pursuant to the Master Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and it is the
owner, as of the Closing Date, of all right, title and interest in and
to the Mortgage Loans; and
75
(ii) on the Closing Date, it has sold the Mortgage Loans
and has assigned its rights under the Master Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement to Sequoia Residential Funding Inc.
ARTICLE III
THE CERTIFICATES
Section 3.01 The Certificates.
(a) The Certificates shall be issuable in registered form only and
shall be securities governed by Article 8 of the New York Uniform Commercial
Code. The Book-Entry Certificates will be evidenced by one or more certificates,
beneficial ownership of which will be held in the dollar denominations in
Certificate Principal Amount, or Notional Amount, as applicable, or in the
Percentage Interests, specified herein. Each Class of Book-Entry Certificates
will be issued in the minimum denominations in Certificate Principal Amount (or
Notional Amount) specified in the Preliminary Statement hereto and in integral
multiples of $1 in excess thereof. Each Class of Non-Book-Entry Certificates
other than the Residual Certificates shall be issued in definitive, fully
registered form in the minimum denominations in Certificate Principal Amount
specified in the Preliminary Statement hereto and in integral multiples of $1 in
excess thereof. The Residual Certificates shall be issued as single Certificates
and maintained in definitive, fully registered form in a denomination equal to
100% of the Percentage Interest of each such Class. The Class X-A-1, Class
X-A-2, Class X-A-3, and Class X-B Certificates shall each be issued as single
Certificates in a denomination equal to 100% of the Percentage Interest of each
such Class.
(b) The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile
signature on behalf of the Trustee by an authorized officer. Each Certificate
shall, on original issue, be authenticated by the Trustee or an Authenticating
Agent upon the order of the Depositor upon receipt by the Trustee of the Trustee
Mortgage Files described in Section 2.01. No Certificate shall be entitled to
any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there
appears on such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the
form provided for herein, executed by an authorized officer of the Trustee or of
an Authenticating Agent, by manual signature, and such certification 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. At any time and
from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
Depositor may deliver Certificates executed by the Trustee to the Trustee or the
Authenticating Agent for authentication and the Trustee or the Authenticating
Agent shall authenticate and deliver such Certificates as in this Agreement
provided and not otherwise.
(c) The Class B-4, Class B-5, Class B-6, Class X-A-1 and Class
X-A-2 Certificates offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from
registration under Rule 144A under the Act shall be issued initially in the form
of one or more permanent global Certificates in definitive, fully registered
form without interest coupons with the applicable legends set forth in Exhibit A
added to the forms of such Certificates (each, a "Restricted Global Security").
76
Section 3.02 Registration.
The Trustee is hereby appointed, and the Trustee hereby accepts its
appointment as, initial Certificate Registrar in respect of the Certificates and
shall maintain books for the registration and for the transfer of Certificates
(the "Certificate Register"). The Trustee may appoint a bank or trust company to
act as successor Certificate Registrar. A registration book shall be maintained
for the Certificates collectively. The Certificate Registrar may resign or be
discharged or removed and a new successor may be appointed in accordance with
the procedures and requirements set forth in Sections 6.06 and 6.07 hereof with
respect to the resignation, discharge or removal of the Trustee and the
appointment of a successor Trustee. The Certificate Registrar may appoint, by a
written instrument delivered to the Holders, any bank or trust company to act as
co-registrar under such conditions as the Certificate Registrar may prescribe;
provided, however, that the Certificate Registrar shall not be relieved of any
of its duties or responsibilities hereunder by reason of such appointment.
Section 3.03 Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
(a) A Certificate (other than Book-Entry Certificates which shall
be subject to Section 3.09 hereof) may be transferred by the Holder thereof only
upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the
Certificate Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by an assignment duly
executed by such Holder or his duly authorized attorney in such form as shall be
satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar. Upon the transfer of any Certificate
in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Trustee shall execute, and the
Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the transferee, one or
more new Certificates of the same Class and evidencing, in the aggregate, the
same aggregate Certificate Principal Amount (or Notional Amount) as the
Certificate being transferred. No service charge shall be made to a
Certificateholder for any registration of transfer of Certificates, but the
Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax
or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration
of transfer of Certificates.
(b) A Certificate may be exchanged by the Holder thereof for any
number of new Certificates of the same Class, in authorized denominations,
representing in the aggregate the same Certificate Principal Amount (or Notional
Amount) as the Certificate surrendered, upon surrender of the Certificate to be
exchanged at the office of the Certificate Registrar duly endorsed or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by such Holder or
his duly authorized attorney in such form as is satisfactory to the Certificate
Registrar. Certificates delivered upon any such exchange will evidence the same
obligations, and will be entitled to the same rights and privileges, as the
Certificates surrendered. No service charge shall be made to a Certificateholder
for any exchange of Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection with any exchange of Certificates. Whenever any
Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute, and the
Authenticating Agent shall authenticate, date and deliver the Certificates which
the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.
(c) By acceptance of a Restricted Certificate, whether upon
original issuance or subsequent transfer, each Holder of such a Certificate
acknowledges the restrictions on the
77
transfer of such Certificate set forth thereon and agrees that it will transfer
such a Certificate only as provided herein.
The following restrictions shall apply with respect to the transfer and
registration of transfer of a Restricted Certificate to a transferee that takes
delivery in the form of a Definitive Certificate:
(i) The Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer
of a Restricted Certificate if the requested transfer is (x) to the
Depositor or an affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the 0000 Xxx)
of the Depositor or (y) being made to a "qualified institutional buyer"
(a "QIB") as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Act") by a transferor that has provided the Certificate
Registrar with a certificate in the form of Exhibit G hereto; and
(ii) The Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer
of a Restricted Certificate if the requested transfer is being made to
an "accredited investor" under Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under
the Act, or to any Person all of the equity owners in which are such
accredited investors, by a transferor who furnishes to the Certificate
Registrar a letter of the transferee substantially in the form of
Exhibit H hereto.
(d) No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate in the form of
a Definitive Certificate shall be made to any Person unless the Certificate
Registrar has received (A) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I
hereto from such transferee or (B) an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the
Certificate Registrar to the effect that the purchase and holding of such a
Certificate will not constitute or result in the assets of the Trust Fund being
deemed to be "plan assets" subject to the prohibited transactions provisions of
ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code, or any provisions of applicable federal, state
or local law substantially similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the
Code ("Similar Law"), and will not subject the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar or the Depositor to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in
the Agreement; provided, however, that the Certificate Registrar will not
require such certificate or opinion in the event that, as a result of a change
of law or otherwise, counsel satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar has
rendered an opinion to the effect that the purchase and holding of an
ERISA-Restricted Certificate by a Plan or a Person that is purchasing or holding
such a Certificate with the assets of a Plan will not constitute or result in a
prohibited transaction under ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or Similar Law. The
preparation and delivery of the certificates and opinions referred to above
shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar or the Depositor.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel or certificate
shall be required for the initial issuance of the ERISA-Restricted Certificates.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any purported transfer of an
ERISA-Restricted Certificate to or on behalf of an employee benefit plan subject
to Title I of ERISA or a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a plan
subject to Similar Law without the delivery to the Certificate Registrar of a
certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto or an Opinion of
Counsel satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar as described above shall be
void and of no effect. The Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor
shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of
any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this
78
Section 3.03(d) or for the Paying Agent 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 by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with the foregoing
requirements. The last preceding Holder of such Certificate that is not a plan
or a Person acting on behalf of a plan shall be entitled to recover from any
purported Holder of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that was in fact an
employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA or a plan subject to Section
4975 of the Code or a plan subject to Similar Law or a Person acting on behalf
of any such plan at the time it became a Holder or, at such subsequent time as
it became such a plan or Person acting on behalf of such a plan, all payments
made on such ERISA-Restricted Certificate at and after either such time;
provided that none of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee
shall be responsible for such recovery if they otherwise made a good faith
effort to comply with this Section 3.03(d).
(e) As a condition of the registration of transfer or exchange of
any Certificate, the Certificate Registrar may require the certified taxpayer
identification number of the owner of the Certificate and the payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection
therewith; provided, however, that the Certificate Registrar shall have no
obligation to require such payment or to determine whether or not any such tax
or charge may be applicable. No service charge shall be made to the
Certificateholder for any registration, transfer or exchange of a Certificate.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no
Residual Certificate or beneficial interest therein may be owned, pledged or
transferred, directly or indirectly, by or to (i) a Disqualified Organization or
(ii) an individual, corporation or partnership or other person unless, in the
case of clause (ii), such person is (A) not a Non-U.S. Person or (B) is a
Non-U.S. Person that holds a Residual Certificate in connection with the conduct
of a trade or business within the United States and has furnished the transferor
and the Certificate Registrar with an effective Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8ECI or successor form at the time and in the manner required by the Code (any
such person who is not covered by clause (A) or (B) above is referred to herein
as a "Non-permitted Foreign Holder").
Prior to and as a condition of the registration of any transfer, sale
or other disposition of a Residual Certificate or a beneficial interest therein,
the proposed transferee shall deliver to the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar an affidavit in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B
representing and warranting, among other things, that such transferee is neither
a Disqualified Organization, an agent or nominee acting on behalf of a
Disqualified Organization, nor a Non-permitted Foreign Holder (any such
transferee, a "Permitted Transferee"), and the proposed transferor shall deliver
to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar an affidavit in substantially the
form attached hereto as Exhibit C. In addition, the Trustee or the Certificate
Registrar may (but shall have no obligation to) require, prior to and as a
condition of any such transfer, the delivery by the proposed transferee of an
Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, that
such proposed transferee or, if the proposed transferee is an agent or nominee,
the proposed beneficial owner, is not a Disqualified Organization, agent or
nominee thereof, or a Non-permitted Foreign Holder. Notwithstanding the
registration in the Certificate Register of any transfer, sale, or other
disposition of a Residual Certificate to a Disqualified Organization, an agent
or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder, such registration shall be
deemed to be of no legal force or effect whatsoever and such Disqualified
79
Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder shall
not be deemed to be a Certificateholder for any purpose hereunder, including,
but not limited to, the receipt of distributions on such Residual Certificate.
The Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee shall be under no
liability to any Person for any registration or transfer of a Residual
Certificate to a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof or
Non-permitted Foreign Holder or for the Paying Agent making any payments due on
such Residual Certificate to the Holder thereof or for taking any other action
with respect to such Holder under the provisions of the Agreement, so long as
the transfer was effected in accordance with this Section 3.03(f), unless the
Certificate Registrar shall have actual knowledge at the time of such transfer
or the time of such payment or other action that the transferee is a
Disqualified Organization, or an agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted
Foreign Holder. The Certificate Registrar shall be entitled to recover from any
Holder of a Residual Certificate that was a Disqualified Organization, agent or
nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder at the time it became a Holder
or any subsequent time it became a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee
thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder, all payments made on such Residual
Certificate at and after either such times (and all costs and expenses,
including but not limited to attorneys' fees, incurred in connection therewith).
Any payment (not including any such costs and expenses) so recovered by the
Certificate Registrar shall be paid and delivered to the last preceding Holder
of such Residual Certificate.
If any purported transferee shall become a registered Holder of a
Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 3.03(f),
then upon receipt of written notice to the Trustee that the registration of
transfer of such Residual Certificate was not in fact permitted by this Section
3.03(f), such transfer shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no
rights in the purported transferee and the last preceding Permitted Transferee
shall be restored to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of
such registration of transfer of such Residual Certificate. The Depositor, the
Certificate Registrar and the Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person
for any registration of transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not
permitted by this Section 3.03(f), or for the Paying Agent making any payment
due on such Certificate to the registered Holder thereof or for taking any other
action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so
long as the transfer was registered upon receipt of the affidavit described in
the preceding paragraph of this Section 3.03(f).
(g) Each Holder or Certificate Owner of a Restricted Certificate,
ERISA-Restricted Certificate or Residual Certificate, or an interest therein, by
such Holder's or Owner's acceptance thereof, shall be deemed for all purposes to
have consented to the provisions of this section.
Section 3.04 Cancellation of Certificates.
Any Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange
shall be cancelled and retained in accordance with normal retention policies
with respect to cancelled certificates maintained by the Trustee or the
Certificate Registrar.
Section 3.05 Replacement of Certificates.
80
If (i) any Certificate is mutilated and is surrendered to the Trustee
or the Certificate Registrar or (ii) the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar
receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Certificate, and there is delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar
such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them
harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Depositor, the Trustee or the
Certificate Registrar that such destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate has been
acquired by a protected purchaser, the Trustee shall execute and the
Authenticating 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 Certificate Principal Amount. Upon the issuance of any new
Certificate under this Section 3.05, the Trustee, the Depositor or the
Certificate Registrar may require 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 (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee, the Depositor or
the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate
issued pursuant to this Section 3.05 shall constitute complete and indefeasible
evidence of ownership in the applicable Trust Fund, as if originally issued,
whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any
time.
If after the delivery of such new Certificate, a protected purchaser of
the original Certificate in lieu of which such new Certificate was issued
presents for payment such original Certificate, the Depositor, the Certificate
Registrar and the Trustee or any agent shall be entitled to recover such new
Certificate from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking
therefrom, except a protected purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon
the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage,
cost or expenses incurred by the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar, the
Trustee or any agent in connection therewith.
Section 3.06 Persons Deemed Owners.
Subject to the provisions of Section 3.09 with respect to Book-Entry
Certificates, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Paying
Agent and any agent of any of them shall treat the Person in whose name any
Certificate is registered upon the books of the Certificate Registrar as the
owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to
Sections 5.01 and 5.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the
Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent nor any
agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
Section 3.07 Temporary Certificates.
(a) Pending the preparation of definitive Certificates, upon the
order of the Depositor, the Trustee shall execute and the Authenticating Agent
shall authenticate and deliver temporary Certificates that are printed,
lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized
denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Certificates in lieu
of which they are issued and with such variations as the authorized officers
executing such Certificates may determine, as evidenced by their execution of
such Certificates.
(b) If temporary Certificates are issued, the Depositor will cause
definitive Certificates to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the
preparation of definitive Certificates, the temporary Certificates shall be
exchangeable for definitive Certificates upon
81
surrender of the temporary Certificates at the office or agency of the
Certificate Registrar without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for
cancellation of any one or more temporary Certificates, the Trustee shall
execute and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver in exchange
therefor a like aggregate Certificate Principal Amount (or Notional Amount) of
definitive Certificates of the same Class in the authorized denominations. Until
so exchanged, the temporary Certificates shall in all respects be entitled to
the same benefits under this Agreement as definitive Certificates of the same
Class.
Section 3.08 Appointment of Paying Agent.
The Trustee may appoint a Paying Agent (which may be the Trustee) for
the purpose of making distributions to Certificateholders hereunder. The Trustee
shall cause any Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument
in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee that such Paying Agent
will hold all sums held by it for the payment to Certificateholders in an
Eligible Account (which shall be the Distribution Account) in trust for the
benefit of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid
to the Certificateholders. All funds remitted by the Trustee to any such Paying
Agent for the purpose of making distributions shall be paid to
Certificateholders on each Distribution Date and any amounts not so paid shall
be returned on such Distribution Date to the Trustee. If the Paying Agent is not
the Trustee, the Trustee shall cause to be remitted to the Paying Agent on or
before the Business Day prior to each Distribution Date, by wire transfer in
immediately available funds, the funds to be distributed on such Distribution
Date. Any Paying Agent shall be either a bank or trust company or otherwise
authorized under law to exercise corporate trust powers.
Section 3.09 Book-Entry Certificates.
(a) Each Class of Book-Entry Certificates, upon original issuance,
shall be issued in the form of one or more typewritten Certificates representing
the Book-Entry Certificates. The Book-Entry Certificates shall initially be
registered on the Certificate Register in the name of the nominee of the
Clearing Agency, and no Certificate Owner will receive a definitive certificate
representing such Certificate Owner's interest in the Book-Entry Certificates,
except as provided in Section 3.09(c). Unless Definitive Certificates have been
issued to Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates pursuant to Section
3.09(c):
(i) the provisions of this Section 3.09 shall be in full
force and effect;
(ii) the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent and the
Trustee shall deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes (including
the making of distributions on the Book-Entry Certificates) as the
authorized representatives of the Certificate Owners and the Clearing
Agency and shall be responsible for crediting the amount of such
distributions to the accounts of such Persons entitled thereto, in
accordance with the Clearing Agency's normal procedures;
(iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section
3.09 conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the
provisions of this Section 3.09 shall control; and
(iv) the rights of Certificate Owners shall be exercised
only through the Clearing Agency and the Clearing Agency Participants
and shall be limited to those
82
established by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and
the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants. Unless and
until Definitive Certificates are issued pursuant to Section 3.09(c),
the initial Clearing Agency will make book-entry transfers among the
Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit distributions of
principal of and interest on the Book-Entry Certificates to such
Clearing Agency Participants.
(b) Whenever notice or other communication to the
Certificateholders is required under this Agreement, unless and until Definitive
Certificates shall have been issued to Certificate Owners pursuant to Section
3.09(c), the Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified
herein to be given to Holders of the Book-Entry Certificates to the Clearing
Agency.
(c) If (i) (A) the Clearing Agency or the Depositor advises the
Paying Agent in writing that the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to
discharge properly its responsibilities with respect to the Book-Entry
Certificates, and (B) the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor
satisfactory to the Depositor and the Paying Agent, (ii) the Depositor, at its
option, advises the Paying Agent in writing that it elects to terminate the
book-entry system through the Clearing Agency or (iii) after the occurrence of
an Event of Default, Certificate Owners representing beneficial interests
aggregating not less than 50% of the Class Principal Amount (or Class Notional
Amount) of a Class of Book-Entry Certificates advise the Paying Agent and the
Clearing Agency through the Clearing Agency Participants in writing that the
continuation of a book-entry system through the Clearing Agency is no longer in
the best interests of the Certificate Owners of a Class of Book-Entry
Certificates, the Certificate Registrar shall notify the Clearing Agency to
effect notification to all Certificate Owners, through the Clearing Agency, of
the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive
Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the
Certificate Registrar of the Book-Entry Certificates by the Clearing Agency,
accompanied by registration instructions from the Clearing Agency for
registration, the Certificate Registrar shall issue the Definitive Certificates.
Neither the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar 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. Upon the issuance of
Definitive Certificates all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to
be performed by the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to be imposed upon and
performed by the Certificate Registrar, to the extent applicable, with respect
to such Definitive Certificates and the Certificate Registrar shall recognize
the holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Certificate Registrar, upon the instruction
of the Depositor, shall have the right to issue Definitive Certificates on the
Closing Date in connection with credit enhancement programs.

on each such Distribution Date, amounts that would otherwise be payable to the
Class X-A-1, Class X-A-2, Class X-A-3 under this clause (b) will (i) in the case
of amounts otherwise payable to the Class X-A-1, Class X-A-2 and Class X-A-3

Pool 1 Component and the Pool 2 Component.
(c) Notwithstanding the priority and allocation set forth in
Section 5.02(a)(iv) and Section 5.02(a)(v) above, if with respect to any Class
of Subordinate Certificates on any Distribution Date the sum of the related
Class Subordination Percentages of such Class and of all other Classes of
Subordinate Certificates which have a higher numerical Class designation than
such Class is less than the Original Applicable Credit Support Percentage for
such Class, no distribution of Principal Prepayments shall be made to any such
Classes and the amount of such Principal Prepayment otherwise distributable to
such Classes shall be distributed to any Classes of Subordinate Certificates
having lower numerical Class designations than such Class, pro rata, based on
the Class Principal Amounts of the respective Classes immediately prior to such

(d) Amounts distributed to the Residual Certificates pursuant to
subparagraph (a)(vi) of this Section 5.02 on any Distribution Date shall be

this Section 5.02, each Mortgage Pool shall "relate" to the Senior Class or

Distribution Date shall be made first, in respect of Current Interest; and
second, in respect of Interest Shortfalls.
(g) Notwithstanding the priority of distributions set forth in
paragraph (a) of this Section 5.02, if on any Distribution Date prior to the
Credit Support Depletion (1) either one of the Rapid Prepayment Conditions is
satisfied on such date and (2) the Certificate Principal Amount of the Senior
Certificates relating to one of the Mortgage Pools has been reduced to zero,
then that portion of the Available Distribution Amount for such Mortgage Pool
described in Section 5.02(a)(ii) that represents principal collections on the
Mortgage Loans shall be applied as an additional distribution to the remaining
Classes of Senior Certificates in reduction of, and in proportion to, the Class
Principal Amounts thereof; provided, however, that any such amounts
distributable to the Class A-R and Class A-1 Certificates shall be distributed
sequentially thereto in such order.
91
(h) If, on any Distribution Date, any Certificate Group would
constitute an Undercollateralized Group and the other Certificate Group
constitutes an Overcollateralized Group, then notwithstanding Section
5.02(a)(ii), the Available Distribution Amount for the Overcollateralized Group,
to the extent remaining following distributions of interest and principal to the
related Senior Certificates of that Certificate Group, shall be distributed up
to the sum of the Interest Transfer Amount and the Principal Transfer Amount for
the Undercollateralized Group to the Senior Certificates related to the
Undercollateralized Group in payment of accrued but unpaid interest, if any, and
then to such Senior Certificates as principal, in the same order and priority as
such Certificates would receive other distributions of principal.

(a) On or prior to each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall
aggregate the information provided by each Servicer with respect to the total

Special Hazard Losses (other than Excess Losses) shall be allocated in
the following order:
first, to the Classes of Subordinate Certificates in
reverse order of their respective numerical Class designations
(beginning with the Class of Subordinate Certificates with the
highest numerical Class designation) until the Class Principal
Amount of each such Class is reduced to zero; and
second, to each Class of Senior Certificates relating
to the Mortgage Pool which sustained such loss (allocated, in
the case of Pool among the related Senior Classes on a pro
rata basis), in each case, until the Class Principal Amount of
each Class of Senior Certificates is reduced to zero;
(ii) the principal portion of any Excess Losses in respect
of a Mortgage Pool shall be allocated proportionately on a pro rata
basis to (A) the Classes of Senior Certificates of the related Mortgage
Pool on the basis of their Class Certificate Principal Amounts; and (B)
to the Classes of Subordinate Certificates on the basis of their

(iii) The Class Principal Amount of the Class of

Class designation shall be reduced on each Distribution Date by the
amount, if any, by which the aggregate of the Class Principal Amounts
of all outstanding Classes of Certificates (after giving effect to the
distribution of principal and the allocation of Realized Losses,
Bankruptcy Losses, Fraud Losses and Special Hazard Losses and Excess
Losses on such Distribution Date) exceeds the Aggregate Stated
Principal Balance for the following Distribution Date.
92
(iv) Any allocation of a loss pursuant to this section to
a Class of Certificates shall be achieved by reducing the Class
Principal Amount thereof by the amount of such loss.
(c) Notwithstanding the other provisions of Section 5.03, the
first $.98 of Realized Losses shall not be allocated to any Class of
Certificates.
Section 5.04 Advances.
If the Servicer fails to remit any Advance required to be made under
the Servicing Agreement, the Trustee solely in its capacity as successor
Servicer shall itself make, or shall cause the successor Servicer to make, such
Advance. If the Trustee solely in its capacity as successor Servicer determines
that an Advance is required, it shall on the Business Day preceding the related
Distribution Date immediately following such Determination Date remit from its
own funds (or funds advanced by the Servicer) for deposit in the Distribution
Account immediately available funds in an amount equal to such Advance. The
Trustee and the Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed for all Advances
made by it. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event the
Trustee (or successor servicer) determines in its reasonable judgment that an
Advance is non-recoverable, the Trustee (or successor servicer) shall be under
no obligation to make such Advance.

to do so) unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual
knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in

Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any

complaint, claim, demand, notice or other document (i) which is delivered to the
Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, (ii) of which a Responsible Officer has
actual knowledge,
94
and (iii) which contains information sufficient to permit the Trustee to make a
determination that the real property to which such document relates is a

this Agreement, or to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial
liability for the performance of any of its duties hereunder or the exercise of
any of its rights or powers if there is reasonable ground for believing that the
timely payment of its fees and expenses or the repayment of such funds or
adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to
it, and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event
require the Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance
of, any of the obligations of the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement except

separate trustees, or as custodians, for the purpose of holding title to,
foreclosing or otherwise taking action with respect to any Mortgage Loan outside
the state where the Trustee has its principal place of business where such
separate trustee or co-trustee is necessary or advisable (or the Trustee has
been advised by the Servicer that such separate trustee or co-trustee
99
is necessary or advisable) under the laws of any state in which a property
securing a Mortgage Loan is located or for the purpose of otherwise conforming
to any legal requirement, restriction or condition in any state in which a
property securing a Mortgage Loan is located or in any state in which any
portion of the Trust Fund is located. The separate Trustees, co-trustees, or
custodians so appointed shall be trustees or custodians for the benefit of all
the Certificateholders and shall have such powers, rights and remedies as shall

provisions and conditions:
(i) all powers, duties, obligations and rights conferred
upon the Trustee in respect of the receipt, custody and payment of

(iii) no trustee or custodian hereunder shall be personally
liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee or
custodian hereunder; and
(iv) the Trustee may at any time, by an instrument in
writing executed by it, with the concurrence of the Depositor, accept
the resignation of or remove any separate trustee, co-trustee or
custodian, so appointed by it or them, if such resignation or removal
does not violate the other terms of this Agreement.
(c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee
shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and
co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument
appointing any separate trustee, co-trustee or custodian shall refer to this
Agreement and the conditions of this Article VI. 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

time, constitute the Trustee its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and

properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the
Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or
successor trustee.

which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee in authenticating
Certificates. If such an agent is so appointed by the Trustee, 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 a corporation
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.

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 with the provisions of this Section
6.10, 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
101
eligible under the provisions of this Section 6.10. No Authenticating Agent
shall have responsibility or liability for any action taken by it as such at the
direction of the Trustee.

without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements (and, in
connection with any custody agreement the Trustee may enter pursuant to this
Agreement, including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and
disbursements of its agents or counsel), incurred without negligence or willful
misconduct on its part, arising out of, or in connection with, the acceptance or
administration of the trusts created hereunder or in connection with the
performance of their duties hereunder including the costs and expenses of
defending themselves against any claim in connection with the exercise or

hereunder shall be limited to losses, liability, costs or expenses,
payments in respect of which by the Trust Fund would constitute
"unanticipated expenses" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations

this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Trustee and shall be
construed to include, but not be limited to any loss, liability or expense under
any environmental law.
Section 6.12 Fees and Expenses of the Trustee.
As compensation for its services hereunder, the Trustee shall be
entitled to retain any and all investment earnings on amounts on deposit in the

of the occurrence thereof, shall promptly notify the Depositor and each Rating
Agency of the nature and extent of such Event of Default.
(b) Within 90 days of the time the Servicer receives a notice of
termination from the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.14(a), the Trustee, unless
another Servicer shall have been appointed, shall be the successor in all
respects to the Servicer in its capacity as such under the Servicing Agreement
and the transactions set forth or provided for therein and shall have all the
rights and powers and be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and
liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter placed on the Servicer
thereunder, including the obligation to make Advances; provided, however, that
any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Servicer's
failure to provide information required by this Agreement or the Servicing
Agreement shall not be considered a default by the Trustee hereunder. In
addition, the Trustee shall have no responsibility for any act or omission of
the Servicer prior to the issuance of any notice of termination. The Trustee
shall have no liability relating to any representations and warranties of the
Servicer set forth in the Servicing Agreement. In the Trustee's capacity as such
successor, the Trustee shall have the same limitations on liability provided to
the Servicer in the Servicing Agreement. As compensation therefor, the Trustee
shall be entitled to receive all compensation payable to the Servicer under the
Servicing Agreement.
The Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Depositor and the
Trust Fund (pursuant to Section 6.11 but without regard to any annual limitation
thereunder), in the event
103
that the Servicer does not reimburse the Trustee under the Servicing Agreement,
for all costs associated with the transfer of servicing from the predecessor
Servicer, including, without limitation, any costs or expenses associated with
the termination of the predecessor Servicer, the appointment of a successor
servicer, the complete transfer of all servicing data and the completion,
correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be required by the
Trustee or any successor servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in
the servicing data or otherwise to enable the Trustee or successor servicer to
service the Mortgage Loans property and effectively (such costs, "Servicing
Transfer Costs").
(c) Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be
unwilling to continue to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act, petition a
court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, or, with the consent of the
Depositor, appoint on its own behalf any established housing and home finance
institution servicer, or servicing or mortgage servicing institution having a
net worth of not less than $15,000,000 and meeting such other standards for a
successor servicer as are set forth in the Servicing Agreement and reasonably
satisfactory to the Depositor, as the successor to the Servicer in the
assumption of all of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of a servicer,
like the Servicer. Any entity designated by the Trustee as a successor servicer
may be an Affiliate of the Trustee; provided, however, that, unless such
Affiliate meets the net worth requirements and other standards set forth herein
for a successor servicer, the Trustee, in its individual capacity shall agree,
at the time of such designation, to be and remain liable to the Trust Fund for
such Affiliate's actions and omissions in performing its duties under the
Servicing Agreement. In connection with 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; provided,
however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted to the
Servicer under the Servicing Agreement. The Trustee and such successor shall
take such actions, consistent with this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement,
as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession and may make other
arrangements with respect to the servicing to be conducted hereunder which are
not inconsistent herewith and therewith. Neither the Trustee nor any other
successor servicer shall be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of any
failure to make, or any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or any
portion thereof caused by (i) the failure of the Servicer to deliver, or any
delay in delivering, cash, documents or records to it, (ii) the failure of the
Servicer to cooperate as required by the Servicing Agreement, (iii) the failure
of the Servicer to deliver the Mortgage Loan data to the Trustee as required by
the Servicing Agreement or (iv) restrictions imposed by any regulatory authority
having jurisdiction over the Servicer.
Section 6.15 Additional Remedies of Trustee Upon Event of Default.
During the continuance of any Event of Default, so long as such Event
of Default shall not have been remedied, the Trustee, in addition to the rights
specified in Section 6.14, shall have the right, in its own name and as trustee
of the Trust Fund, to take all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in
equity or by statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect the
interests, and enforce the rights and remedies, of the Certificateholders
(including the institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and
other proceedings and the filings of proofs of claim and debt in connection
therewith). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy
provided for by this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement shall be exclusive of
any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition
to
104
any other remedy, and no delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall
impair any such right or remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Event
of Default.
Section 6.16 Waiver of Defaults.
More than 50% of the Aggregate Voting Interests of Certificateholders
may waive any default or Event of Default by the Servicer in the performance of
its obligations hereunder, except that a default in the making of any required
deposit to the Distribution Account that would result in a failure of the
Trustee to make any required payment of principal of or interest on the
Certificates may only be waived with the consent of 100% 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 6.17 Notification to Holders.
Upon termination of the Servicer or appointment of a successor to the
Servicer, in each case as provided herein, the Trustee shall promptly mail
notice thereof by first class mail to the Certificateholders at their respective
addresses appearing on the Certificate Register. The Trustee shall also, within
45 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default known to the Trustee, give
written notice thereof to the Certificateholders, unless such Event of Default
shall have been cured or waived prior to the issuance of such notice and within
such 45-day period.
Section 6.18 Directions by Certificateholders and Duties of
Trustee During Event of Default.
Subject to the provisions of Section 8.01 hereof, during the
continuance of any Event of Default, Holders of Certificates evidencing not less
than 25% of the Class Principal Amount (or Percentage Interest) of each Class of
Certificates affected thereby may direct 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 or the
Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that the Trustee shall be under no
obligation to pursue any such remedy, or to exercise any of the trusts or powers
vested in it by this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement (including, without
limitation, (i) the conducting or defending of any administrative action or
litigation hereunder or in relation hereto and (ii) the terminating of the
Servicer or any successor servicer from its rights and duties as servicer) at
the request, order or direction of any of the Certificateholders, unless such
Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or
indemnity against the cost, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred
therein or thereby; and, provided further, that, subject to the provisions of
Section 8.01, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such
direction if the Trustee, in accordance with an Opinion of Counsel, determines
that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the
Trustee in good faith determines that the action or proceeding so directed would
involve it in personal liability for which it is not indemnified to its
satisfaction or be unjustly prejudicial to the non-assenting Certificateholders.
105
Section 6.19 Preparation of Tax Returns and Other Reports.
(a) The Trustee shall prepare or cause to be prepared on behalf of
the Trust Fund, based upon information calculated in accordance with this
Agreement pursuant to instructions given by the Depositor, and the Trustee shall
file federal tax returns, all in accordance with Article X hereof. The Trustee
shall prepare and file such state income tax returns and such other returns as
may be required by applicable law relating to the Trust Fund, and, if required
by state law, and shall file any other documents to the extent required by
applicable state tax law (to the extent such documents are in the Trustee's
possession). The Trustee shall forward copies to the Depositor of all such
returns and Form 1099 supplemental tax information and such other information
within the control of the Trustee as the Depositor may reasonably request in
writing, and shall distribute to each Certificateholder such forms and furnish
such information within the control of the Trustee as are required by the Code
and the REMIC Provisions to be furnished to them, and will prepare and
distribute to Certificateholders Form 1099 (supplemental tax information) (or
otherwise furnish information within the control of the Trustee) to the extent
required by applicable law. The Trustee shall prepare and provide to such
Persons as may be required by applicable law all information returns required
with respect to payments made from the Basis Risk Reserve Fund.
(b) The Trustee shall prepare and file with the Internal Revenue
Service ("IRS"), on behalf of each of REMIC 1, REMIC 2, REMIC 3, REMIC 4 and the
Upper Tier REMIC, an application on IRS Form SS-4 or shall obtain a Taxpayer
Identification Number for each of REMIC 1, REMIC 2, REMIC 3, REMIC 4 and the
Upper Tier REMIC using another reasonable method. If the application is filed on
Form SS-4, the Trustee, upon receipt from the IRS of the Notice of Taxpayer
Identification Number Assigned for each REMIC, shall promptly forward copies of
such notices to the Depositor, upon request. The Trustee will file an IRS Form
8811.
(c) The Depositor shall prepare or cause to be prepared the
initial current report on Form 8-K. Thereafter, within 15 days after each
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall, in accordance with industry standards,
file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") via the
Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System (XXXXX), a Form 8-K with a copy
of the statement to the Certificateholders for such Distribution Date as an
exhibit thereto. Prior to January 31, 2004, the Trustee shall, in accordance
with industry standards, file a Form 15 Suspension Notification with respect to
the Trust Fund, if applicable. Prior to March 31, 2004, the Trustee shall file a
Form 10-K executed by the Depositor, in substance conforming to industry
standards, with respect to the Trust Fund. The Depositor shall be responsible
for preparing all filings and certificates required by the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of
2002. The Trustee agrees to promptly furnish to the Depositor, from time to time
upon request, such further information, reports, and financial statements within
its control related to this Agreement and the Mortgage Loans as the Depositor
reasonably deems appropriate to prepare and file all necessary reports with the
Commission.
Section 6.20 Annual Certificate by Trustee.
(a) By March 15th of each year for which a Form 10-K is to be
filed with a certification by the Depositor, an officer of the Trustee shall
execute and deliver an Officer's Certificate, signed by the senior officer in
charge of the Trustee or any officer to whom that
106
officer reports, to the Depositor for the benefit of such Depositor and its
officers, directors and affiliates, certifying as to the matters described in
the Officer's Certificate attached hereto as Exhibit P.
(b) The Trustee shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor
and its officers, directors, agents and affiliates from and against any losses,
damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs,
judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon a breach by
the Trustee or any of its officers, directors, agents or affiliates of its
obligations under this Section 6.20 any material misstatement or omission in the
Officer's Certificate required under this Section or the negligence, bad faith
or willful misconduct of the Trustee in connection therewith. If the
indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold
harmless the Depositor, then the Trustee agrees that it shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by the Depositor as a result of the losses, claims,
damages or liabilities of the Depositor in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect the relative fault of the Trustee on the one had and the Depositor on
the other in connection with a breach of the Trustee's obligations under this
Section 6.20, any material misstatement or omission in the Officer's Certificate
required under this Section or the Trustee's negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct in connection therewith.
ARTICLE VII
PURCHASE OF MORTGAGE LOANS AND
TERMINATION OF THE TRUST FUND
Section 7.01 Purchase of Mortgage Loans; Termination of Trust Fund
Upon Purchase or Liquidation of All Mortgage Loans.
(a) The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Trustee
created hereby (other than the obligation of the Trustee to make payments to
Certificateholders as set forth in Section 7.02), shall terminate on the
earliest of (i) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan
remaining in the Trust Fund and the disposition of all REO Property, (ii) the
sale of the property held by the Trust Fund in accordance with Section 7.01(b)
and (iii) the Latest Possible Maturity Date; provided, however, that in no event
shall the Trust Fund 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. Any termination of the Trust Fund shall be carried out in such a
manner so that the termination of each REMIC included therein shall qualify as a
"qualified liquidation" under the REMIC Provisions.
(b) On any Distribution Date occurring on or after the Initial
Optional Purchase Date, the majority Holder of the most subordinate Class of
Subordinate Certificates then outstanding (the "Terminator") has the option to
cause the Trust Fund to adopt a plan of complete liquidation pursuant to Section
7.03(a)(i) hereof to sell all of its property. If the Terminator elects to
exercise such option, it shall no later than 30 days prior to the Distribution
Date selected for purchase of the assets of the Trust Fund (the "Purchase Date")
deliver notices to the Trustee and either (a) deposit in the Distribution
Account the Redemption Price or (b) state in such notice
107
that the Redemption Price shall be deposited in the Distribution Account not
later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time on the applicable Purchase Date. Upon
exercise of such option, the property of the Trust Fund shall be sold to the
Servicer at a price equal to the Redemption Price.
(c) The Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee shall be
reimbursed from the Redemption Price for any Advances, Servicer Advances,
accrual and unpaid Servicing Fees or other amounts with respect to the Mortgage
Loans that are reimbursable to such parties under this Agreement or the
Servicing Agreement.
Section 7.02 Procedure Upon Redemption or Termination of Trust
Fund.
(a) Notice of any redemption termination pursuant to the
provisions of Section 7.01, specifying the Distribution Date upon which the
final distribution shall be made or the Redemption Date of the Certificates,
shall be given promptly by the Trustee by first class mail to Certificateholders
mailed in the case of a redemption of the Certificate, no less than the first
day of the month in which the Distribution Date selected for redemption of the
Certificates occurs or upon (x) the sale of all of the property of the Trust
Fund by the Trustee or in the case of a sale of assets of the Trust Fund, or (y)
upon the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan or REO
Property in the Trust Fund. Such notice shall specify (A) the Redemption Date,
Distribution Date upon which final distribution on the Certificates of all
amounts required to be distributed to Certificateholders pursuant to Section
5.02 will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the
Certificate Registrar's Corporate Trust Office, and (B) that the Record Date
otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, distribution
being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the
office or agency of the Trustee therein specified. The Trustee shall give such
notice to the Certificate Registrar at the time such notice is given to Holders
of the Certificates. Upon any such termination, the duties of the Trustee and
the Certificate Registrar with respect to the Certificates shall terminate and
the Trustee shall terminate the Distribution Account and any other account or
fund maintained with respect to the Certificates, subject to the Trustee's
obligation hereunder to hold all amounts payable to Certificateholders in trust
without interest pending such payment.
(b) In the event that all of the Holders do not surrender their
Certificates for cancellation within three months after the time specified in
the above-mentioned written notice, the Trustee 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
one year after the second notice any Certificates shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take appropriate steps to contact
the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of such Certificates, and
the cost thereof shall be paid out of the amounts distributable to such Holders.
If within two years after the second notice any Certificates shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall, subject to applicable state law
relating to escheatment, hold all amounts distributable to such Holders for the
benefit of such Holders. No interest shall accrue on any amount held by the
Trustee and not distributed to a Certificateholder due to such
Certificateholder's failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for payment of the
final distribution thereon in accordance with this Section.
(c) Any reasonable expenses incurred by the Trustee, to the extent
that such expenses, if paid or reimbursed by the Trust Fund, would constitute
"unanticipated expenses"
108
within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii), in
connection with any redemption or termination or liquidation of the Trust Fund
shall be reimbursed from proceeds received from the liquidation of the Trust
Fund.
Section 7.03 Additional Trust Fund Termination Requirements.
(a) Any termination of the Trust Fund shall be effected in
accordance with the following additional requirements, unless the Trustee seeks
(at the request of the party exercising the option to purchase all of the
Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 7.01(b)), and subsequently receives, an
Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of such requesting party), addressed to the
Trustee to the effect that the failure of the Trust Fund to comply with the
requirements of this Section 7.03 will not (I) result in the imposition of taxes
on any REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or (II) cause any REMIC established
hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are
outstanding:
(i) Within 89 days prior to the time of the making of the
final payment on the Certificates, upon notification by the Depositor
that it intends to exercise its option to cause the termination of the
Trust Fund, the Trustee shall adopt a plan of complete liquidation of
the Trust Fund on behalf of each REMIC, meeting the requirements of a
qualified liquidation under the REMIC Provisions;
(ii) Any sale of the assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to
Section 7.02 shall be a sale for cash and shall occur at or after the
time of adoption of such a plan of complete liquidation and prior to
the time of making of the final payment on the Certificates;
(iii) On the date specified for final payment of the
Certificates, the Trustee shall make final distributions of principal
and interest on the Certificates in accordance with Section 5.02 and,
after payment of, or provision for any outstanding expenses, distribute
or credit, or cause to be distributed or credited, to the Holders of
the Residual Certificates all cash on hand after such final payment
(other than cash retained to meet claims), and the Trust Fund (and each
REMIC) shall terminate at that time; and
(iv) In no event may the final payment on the Certificates
or the final distribution or credit to the Holders of the Residual
Certificates be made after the 89th day from the date on which the plan
of complete liquidation is adopted.
(b) By its acceptance of a Residual Certificate, each Holder
thereof hereby agrees to accept the plan of complete liquidation adopted by the
Trustee under this Section and to take such other action in connection therewith
as may be reasonably requested by the Trustee.
Section 7.04 [RESERVED].

ARTICLE VIII
RIGHTS OF CERTIFICATEHOLDERS
Section 8.01 Limitation on Rights of Holders.
(a) The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not
operate to terminate this Agreement or this Trust Fund, nor entitle such
Certificateholder's legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or
take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of this
Trust Fund, nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the
parties hereto or any of them. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no
Certificateholder, solely by virtue of its status as a Certificateholder, shall
have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the Trustee or 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.
(b) No Certificateholder, solely by virtue of its status as
Certificateholder, shall have any right by virtue or by availing 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 an Event
of Default and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless
also the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Class
Principal Amount or Class Notional Amount (or Percentage Interest) of
Certificates of each Class affected thereby shall have made written request upon
the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as
Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable
indemnity as it may require against the cost, expenses and liabilities to be
incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for sixty 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 and no direction inconsistent
with such written request has been given such Trustee during such sixty-day
period by such Certificateholders; 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
shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue or by availing of any
provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the
Holders of any other of such Certificates, 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 benefit
of all Certificateholders. 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 8.02 Access to List of Holders.
(a) If the Trustee is not acting as Certificate Registrar, the
Certificate Registrar will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee,
within fifteen days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a request by
the Trustee in writing, a list, in such form as the Trustee may
110
reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders of each
Class as of the most recent Record Date.
(b) If three or more Holders or Certificate Owners (hereinafter
referred to as "Applicants") apply in writing to the Trustee, and such
application states that the Applicants desire to communicate with other Holders
with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and
is accompanied by a copy of the communication which such Applicants propose to
transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of
such application, afford such Applicants reasonable access during the normal
business hours of the Trustee to the most recent list of Certificateholders held
by the Trustee or shall, as an alternative, send, at the Applicants' expense,
the written communication proffered by the Applicants to all Certificateholders
at their addresses as they appear in the Certificate Register.
(c) Every Holder or Certificate Owner, if the Holder is a Clearing
Agency, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agrees with the Depositor, the
Certificate Registrar and the Trustee that neither the Depositor, the
Certificate Registrar nor the Trustee shall be held accountable by reason of the
disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the
Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from which such
information was derived.
Section 8.03 Acts of Holders of Certificates.
(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action provided by this Agreement to be given or taken
by Holders or Certificate Owners, if the Holder is a Clearing Agency, may be
embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar
tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing;
and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become
effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee. Such
instrument or instruments (as the action embodies therein and evidenced thereby)
are herein sometimes referred to as an "Act" of the Holders signing such
instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a
writing appointing any such agents shall be sufficient for any purpose of this
Agreement and conclusive in favor of the Trustee, if made in the manner provided
in this Section.
(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such
instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such
execution or by the certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized
by law to take acknowledgments or deeds, certifying that the individual signing
such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Whenever
such execution is by an officer of a corporation or a member of a partnership on
behalf of such corporation or partnership, such certificate or affidavit shall
also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the
execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the individual
executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee
deems sufficient.
(c) The ownership of Certificates (whether or not such
Certificates shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or
other writing thereon made by anyone other
111
than the Trustee) shall be proved by the Certificate Register, and neither the
Trustee nor the Depositor shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action by the Holder of any Certificate shall bind
every future Holder of the same Certificate and the Holder of every Certificate
issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in
lieu thereof, in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the
Trustee in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon
such Certificate.

ARTICLE X
REMIC ADMINISTRATION
Section 10.01 REMIC Administration.
(a) REMIC elections as set forth in the Preliminary Statement
shall be made on Forms 1066 or other appropriate federal tax or information
return for the taxable year ending on the last day of the calendar year in which
the Certificates are issued. The regular interests and residual interest in each
REMIC shall be as designated in the Preliminary Statement and Section 1.01.
(b) The Closing Date is hereby designated as the "Startup Day" of
each REMIC within the meaning of section 860G(a)(9) of the Code. The latest
possible maturity date for purposes of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-1(a)(4) will
be the Latest Possible Maturity Date.
(c) The Trustee shall represent the Trust Fund in any
administrative or judicial proceeding relating to an examination or audit by any
governmental taxing authority with respect thereto. The Trustee shall pay any
and all tax related expenses (not including taxes) of each REMIC, including but
not limited to any professional fees or expenses related to audits or any
administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to such REMIC that involve
the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities, but only to the extent
that (i) such expenses are ordinary or routine expenses, including expenses of a
routine audit but not expenses of litigation (except as described in (ii)); or
(ii) such expenses or liabilities (including taxes and penalties) are
attributable to the negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee in
fulfilling its duties hereunder (including its duties as tax return preparer).
The Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement of expenses to the extent
provided in clause (i) above from the Distribution Account, provided, however,
the Trustee shall not be entitled to reimbursement for expenses incurred in
connection with the preparation of tax returns and other reports as required by
Section 6.19 and this Section.
112
(d) The Trustee shall prepare, sign and file all of each REMIC's
federal and appropriate state tax and information returns as such REMIC's direct
representative. The expenses of preparing and filing such returns shall be borne
by the Trustee.
(e) The Trustee or its designee shall perform on behalf of each
REMIC all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the responsibility
of such REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions, or other compliance guidance
issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local taxing authority.
Among its other duties, if required by the Code, the REMIC Provisions, or other
such guidance, the Trustee shall provide, upon receipt of additional reasonable
compensation, to the Treasury or other governmental authority such information
as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the transfer of a
Residual Certificate to any disqualified person or organization pursuant to
Treasury Regulation 1.860E-2(a)(5) and any person designated in Section
860E(e)(3) of the Code.
(f) The Trustee and the Holders of Certificates shall take any
action or cause any REMIC to take any action necessary to create or maintain the
status of any REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and shall assist each
other as necessary to create or maintain such status. Neither the Trustee nor
the Holder of any Residual Certificate shall knowingly take any action, cause
any REMIC to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any
action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may
be, could (i) endanger the status of any REMIC as a REMIC or (ii) result in the
imposition of a tax upon any REMIC (including but not limited to the tax on
prohibited transactions as defined in Code Section 860F(a)(2) and the tax on
prohibited contributions set forth on Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such
event, an "Adverse REMIC Event") unless the Trustee has received an Opinion of
Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action) to the effect
that the contemplated action will not endanger such status or result in the
imposition of such a tax. In addition, prior to taking any action with respect
to any REMIC or the assets therein, or causing any REMIC to take any action,
which is not expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement, any Holder
of a Residual Certificate will consult with the Trustee, in writing, with
respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with
respect to any REMIC, and no such Person shall take any such action or cause any
REMIC to take any such action as to which the Trustee has advised it in writing
that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur; provided, however, that if no Adverse
REMIC Event would occur but such action could result in the imposition of
additional taxes on the Residual Certificateholders, no such Person shall take
any such action, or cause any REMIC to take any such action without the written
consent of the Residual Certificateholders.
(g) Each Holder of a Residual Certificate shall pay when due any
and all taxes imposed on the related REMIC by federal or state governmental
authorities. To the extent that such taxes are not paid by a Residual
Certificateholder, the Trustee or the Paying Agent shall pay any remaining REMIC
taxes out of current or future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holder of
the Residual Certificate in any such REMIC or, if no such amounts are available,
out of other amounts held in the Collection Account, and shall reduce amounts
otherwise payable to holders of regular interests in any such REMIC, as the case
may be.
(h) The Trustee shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain
books and records with respect to each REMIC on a calendar year and on an
accrual basis.
113
(i) No additional contributions of assets shall be made to any
REMIC, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
(j) The Trustee shall not enter into any arrangement by which any
REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services.
(k) (i) The Trustee shall treat the Class A-1 Certificates as
representing ownership, through a grantor trust, of the Upper Tier REMIC Class
A-1 Interest. The Trustee shall treat the rights of the Holders of the Class A-1
Certificates to receive distributions attributable to accruals of interest at
rates in excess of the Pool 1 Adjusted Net WAC, including all payments in
respect of Basis Risk Shortfalls and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfalls, as interests
in interest rate cap contracts written by the Holders of each of the Class
X-A-1, Class X-A-2 and Class X-A-3 Certificates (as holders of interests in the
Pool 1 NAS IO REMIC Component or the Pool 1 Companion IO REMIC Component) in
favor of the Holders of the Class A-1 Certificates. Thus, each Class A-1
Certificate shall be treated as representing not only ownership of a regular
interest in the Upper Tier REMIC, but also ownership, through a grantor trust,
of an interest in (I) an interest rate cap contract written by the holders of
the Class X-A-1 Certificates and the Class X-A-2 Certificates (as holders of
interests in the Pool 1 NAS IO REMIC Component) and (II) an interest rate cap
contract written by the holders of the Class X-A-1 Certificates and the Class
X-A-3 Certificates (as holders of interests in the Pool 1 Companion IO REMIC
Component). Amounts otherwise payable with respect to the Pool 1 Companion IO
REMIC Component will be treated as used to make payments in respect of the
interest rate cap contracts written in favor of the holders of the Class A-1
Certificates before amounts payable with respect to the Pool 1 NAS IO REMIC
Component are so treated. (ii) The Trustee shall treat the Class A-2
Certificates as representing ownership, through a grantor trust, of the Upper
Tier REMIC Class A-2 Interest. The Trustee shall treat the rights of the Holders
of the Class A-2 Certificates to receive distributions attributable to accruals
of interest at rates in excess of the Pool 2 Adjusted Net WAC, including all
payments in respect of Basis Risk Shortfalls and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfalls,
as interests in interest rate cap contracts written by the Holders of each of
the Class X-A-1, Class X-A-2 and Class X-A-3 Certificates (as holders of
interests in the Pool 2 NAS IO REMIC Component or the Pool 2 Companion IO REMIC
Component) in favor of the Holders of the Class A-2 Certificates. Thus, each
Class A-2 Certificate shall be treated as representing not only ownership of a
regular interest in the Upper Tier REMIC, but also ownership, through a grantor
trust, of an interest in (I) an interest rate cap contract written by the
holders of the Class X-A-1 Certificates and the Class X-A-2 Certificates (as
holders of interests in the Pool 2 NAS IO REMIC Component) and (II) an interest
rate cap contract written by the holders of the Class X-A-1 Certificates and the
Class X-A-3 Certificates (as holders of interests in the Pool 2 Companion IO
REMIC Component). Amounts otherwise payable with respect to the Pool 2 Companion
IO REMIC Component will be treated as used to make payments in respect of the
interest rate cap contracts written in favor of the holders of the Class A-2
Certificates before amounts payable with respect to the Pool 2 NAS IO REMIC
Component are so treated. (iii) The Trustee shall treat the Class X-A-1
Certificates as representing, through separate grantor trusts, a 50% interest in
each of the Pool 1 NAS IO REMIC Component, the Pool 1 Companion IO REMIC
Component, the Pool 2 NAS IO REMIC Component and the Pool 2 Companion IO REMIC
Component. The Trustee shall treat the Class X-A-2 Certificates as representing
a 50% interest in the Pool 1 NAS IO REMIC Component and in the Pool 2 NAS IO
REMIC Component. The Trustee shall treat the Class X-A-3 Certificates as
representing a 50% interest
114
in the Pool 1 Companion IO REMIC Component and the Pool 2 Companion IO
Component. The Trustee will treat all amounts distributed in respect of the Pool
1 NAS IO Subcomponent that either (x) reverse the effect of the provisos of
Section 5.02(a)(i) or 5.02(b) on the amount of prior distributions in respect of
the Pool 1 NAS IO Subcomponent or (y) would have been payable in respect of the
Pool 1 Companion IO Subcomponent but for the Certificate Interest Rate on the
Class A-1 Certificates exceeding or having exceeded the Pool 1 Adjusted Net WAC
for the current or a prior Distribution Date as amounts paid under an interest
rate cap agreement written by the holders of Certificates representing an
interest in the Pool 1 Companion IO Subcomponent in favor of the holders of
Certificates representing interests in the Pool 1 NAS IO Subcomponent. The
Trustee will treat all amounts distributed in respect of the Pool 2 NAS IO
Subcomponent that either (x) reverse the effect of the provisos of Section
5.02(a)(i) or 5.02(b) on the amount of prior distributions in respect of the
Pool 2 NAS IO Subcomponent or (y) would have been payable in respect of the Pool
2 Companion IO Subcomponent but for the Certificate Interest rate on the Class
A-2 Certificates exceeding or having exceeded the Pool 2 Adjusted Net WAC on the
current or a prior Distribution Date as amounts paid under an interest rate cap
agreement written by the holders of Certificates representing an interest in the
Pool 2 Companion IO Subcomponent in favor of the holders of Certificates
representing interests in the Pool 2 NAS IO Subcomponent. (iv) The Trustee shall
treat each of the Class X-0, X-0 and Class B-3 Certificates as representing
ownership, through grantor trusts, of the Upper Tier REMIC Class B-1 Interest,
Upper Tier REMIC Class B-2 Interest and Upper Tier REMIC Class B-3 Interest,
respectively. The Trustee shall treat the rights of the Holders of the Class
B-1, Class B-2 and Class B-3 Certificates to receive payments in respect of
Basis Risk Shortfalls and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfalls as interests in cap
contracts written by the Holders of the Class X-B Certificate in favor of the
Holders of the Class B-1, Class B-2 and Class B-3 Certificates. (v) For purposes
of determining the issue prices of the REMIC regular interests or portions
thereof represented by the Certificates, the interest rate cap contracts
described in this Section 10.01(k) shall be assumed to have a zero value unless
and until required otherwise by an applicable taxing authority. (vi) Each Holder
or beneficial owner of a Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class X-A-1, Class X-A-2, Class
X-A-3, Class X-B, Class B-1, Class B-2 or Class B-3 Certificate agrees, by its
acceptance of such Certificate or a beneficial interest therein, to treat, for
tax purposes, such Certificate in a manner consistent with the treatment
described in this Section 10.01(k). (vii) For federal income tax purposes, the
Trustee shall treat distributions from the Trust Fund as occurring as required
by the terms of the Upper-Tier REMIC Interests, with any difference between such
and actual distributions being treated as resulting from payments in respect of
the interest rate cap agreements described in this Section 10.01(k).
(l) The Class A-R Holder shall act as "tax matters person" with
respect to each REMIC and irrevocably appoints the Trustee to act as its agent
in such roles.
(m) Neither the Trustee nor the Depositor, as assignees under the
Servicing Agreement, shall provide any consent pursuant to the Servicing
Agreement or knowingly take any action under such Servicing Agreement that would
conflict with or violate the provisions of this Article X.
115
Section 10.02 Prohibited Transactions and Activities.
Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee shall sell, dispose of, or
substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans, except in a disposition pursuant to
(i) the foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, (ii) the bankruptcy of the Trust Fund,
(iii) the termination of each REMIC pursuant to Article VII of this Agreement,
(iv) a substitution pursuant to Article II of this Agreement or (v) a repurchase
of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II of this Agreement, nor acquire any
assets for any REMIC, nor sell or dispose of any investments in the Distribution
Account for gain, nor accept any contributions to any REMIC after the Closing
Date, unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party
causing such sale, disposition, or substitution) that such disposition,
acquisition, substitution, or acceptance will not (a) affect adversely the
status of any such REMIC as a REMIC or of the interests therein other than the
Residual Certificate as the regular interests therein, (b) affect the
distribution of interest or principal on the Certificates, (c) result in the
encumbrance of the assets transferred or assigned to the Trust Fund (except
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement) or (d) cause any such REMIC to be
subject to any tax including a tax on prohibited transactions or prohibited
contributions pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.
Section 10.03 Indemnification with Respect to Prohibited
Transactions or Loss of REMIC Status.
In the event that a REMIC fails to qualify as a REMIC, loses its status
as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a result of a prohibited
transaction or prohibited contribution under the REMIC Provisions due to the
negligent performance by the Trustee of its duties and obligations set forth
herein, the Trustee shall indemnify the Certificateholders of the related
Residual Certificate against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses ("Losses") resulting from such negligence; provided, however, that the
Trustee shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action or
inaction of the Depositor or the Holder of the Residual Certificate, nor for any
such Losses resulting from misinformation provided by any of the foregoing
parties on which the Trustee has relied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however,
in no event shall the Trustee have any liability (1) for any action or omission
that is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or
which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, the Master
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the Servicing Agreement, (2) for any Losses
other than arising out of malfeasance, willful misconduct or negligent
performance by the Trustee of its duties and obligations set forth herein, and
(3) for any special or consequential damages to Certificateholders of the
related Residual Certificate (in addition to payment of principal and interest
on the Certificates).
Section 10.04 REO Property.
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the
Trustee, shall not, except to the extent provided in the Servicing Agreement,
knowingly permit any Servicer to, rent, lease, or otherwise earn income on
behalf of any REMIC with respect to any REO Property which might cause such REO
Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of
section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by any REMIC of any
"income from non-permitted assets" within the meaning of section 860F(a)(2) of
the Code or any "net income from foreclosure property" which is subject to tax
under the REMIC Provisions unless the Servicer has provided to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel concluding that, under the
116
REMIC Provisions, such action would not adversely affect the status of any REMIC
as a REMIC and any income generated for any REMIC by the REO Property would not
result in the imposition of a tax upon such REMIC.
(b) The Depositor shall cause the Servicer (to the extent provided
in the Servicing Agreement) to make reasonable efforts to sell any REO Property
for its fair market value. In any event, however, the Depositor shall, or shall
cause the Servicer (to the extent provided in the Servicing Agreement) to,
dispose of any REO Property within three years of its acquisition by the Trust
Fund unless the Depositor or the Servicer (on behalf of the Trust Fund) has
received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect
that, under the REMIC Provisions and any relevant proposed legislation and under
applicable state law, the REMIC may hold REO Property for a longer period
without adversely affecting the REMIC status of such REMIC or causing the
imposition of a Federal or state tax upon such REMIC. If such an extension has
been received, then the Depositor, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder,
shall, or shall cause the Servicer to, continue to attempt to sell the REO
Property for its fair market value for such period longer than three years as
such extension permits (the "Extended Period"). If such an extension has not
been received and the Depositor or the Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trust
Fund hereunder, is unable to sell the REO Property within 33 months after its
acquisition by the Trust Fund or if such an extension, has been received and the
Depositor or the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period
ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the Depositor shall
cause the Servicer, before the end of the three year period or the Extended
Period, as applicable, to (i) purchase such REO Property at a price equal to the
REO Property's fair market value or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest
bidder (which may be the Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce
a fair price prior to the expiration of the three-year period or the Extended
Period, as the case may be.

herein to conform to or be consistent with or in furtherance of the statements

the interests of any Holder unless such Holder has consented thereto. Prior to
entering into any amendment without the consent of Holders pursuant to this
paragraph, the Trustee shall be provided with an Opinion of Counsel (at the
expense of the party requesting such amendment) to the effect that such
amendment is permitted under this Section. Any such amendment shall be deemed
not to adversely affect in any material respect any Holder, if the Trustee

Certificates 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; provided, however, that no
such amendment shall be made unless the Trustee receives an Opinion of Counsel,
at the expense of the party requesting the change, that such change will not
adversely affect the status of any REMIC as a REMIC or cause a tax to be imposed
on such REMIC; and provided further, 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 or (ii) reduce the aforesaid
percentages of Class Principal Amount or Class Notional Amount (or Percentage
Interest) of Certificates of each Class, the Holders of which are required to
consent to any such amendment without the consent of the Holders of 100% of the
Class Principal Amount or Class Notional Amount (or Percentage Interest) of each
Class of Certificates affected thereby. For purposes of this paragraph,
references to "Holder" or "Holders" shall be deemed to include, in the case of
any Class of Book-Entry Certificates, the related Certificate Owners.
(c) Promptly after the execution of any such amendment, the
Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment to
each Holder, the Depositor and the Rating Agencies.
(d) It shall not be necessary for the consent of Holders under

118
shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and
of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Holders shall be
subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Servicing
Agreement, the Trustee shall not consent to any amendment of the Servicing
Agreement except pursuant to the standards provided in this Section with respect
to amendment of this Agreement.

assignment by the Servicer of the Servicer's rights and obligations under the
Servicing Agreement without the prior written consent of the Depositor, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Except to the extent that the consent of all affected
Certificateholders is required pursuant to this Agreement, with respect to any

representing specified percentages of aggregate outstanding Certificate

not to be counted so long as such Certificates are owned by the Depositor, the
Trustee, the Servicer or any Affiliate thereof.

under the Act. Any reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Trustee in

and will not subject the Trustee or the Depositor to any
obligation in addition to those undertaken by such entities in

Residual Certificate, the Purchaser may incur tax liabilities
in excess of any cash flows generated by the interest and that

(a) With respect to each Custodian's Mortgage File, the Custodian
is exclusively the custodian for the Registered Holder from and after the
related Delivery Date. The Custodian shall hold all documents constituting the
Custodian's Mortgage File received by it for the exclusive use and benefit of
the Registered Holder, and shall make disposition thereof only in accordance
with this Agreement and the instructions furnished by the Registered Holder. The
Custodian shall segregate and maintain continuous custody of all documents
constituting the Custodian's Mortgage File received by it in secure and
fire-resistant facilities in accordance with customary standards for such
custody. The Custodian represents and warrants that it will verify the receipt
of required documents, the accuracy of certain information, and indicate
discrepancies pursuant to the custody receipt requirements herein. The Custodian
makes no representations or warranties as to, and shall not be responsible to,
verify: (i) the validity, legality, enforceability, sufficiency, recordability,
due authorization or genuineness of any of the documents contained in each
Custodian's Mortgage File or any of the Mortgage Loans or (ii) the
collectability, insurability, effectiveness or suitability of any such Mortgage
Loan. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to impose on the
Custodian any obligation of a third party seller under this Agreement or a
Purchase Agreement under any circumstances.
(b) The Custodian shall, at its own expense, maintain at all times
during the existence of this Agreement and keep in full force and effect a
fidelity bond, errors and omissions insurance, theft and documents insurance and
forgery insurance in amounts and with standard coverage as is customary for
insurance typically maintained by institutions that act as custodians. The
minimum coverage under any such bond and insurance policies shall be at least
equal to the corresponding amounts required by the Government National Mortgage
Association, Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac either of the Custodian or in their
respective Seller/Servicing Guides. A certificate of an authorized officer for
the Custodian shall be furnished to the Registered Holder upon request as
evidence of its compliance with any such requirement.
4. Custody Receipts.
(a) Initial Custody Receipt. The Custodian shall review the
documents delivered to it on each Delivery Date and shall deliver to MLCC as
initial Registered Holder within two (2) Business Days following the Delivery
Date, or within a mutually agreed upon time between the Bank and the Custodian,
but prior to the Closing Date, an Initial Custody Receipt with respect to the
Mortgage Loans, in which the Custodian shall certify that such Mortgage Loans
are held for MLCC (as Registered Holder) and that, as to each Mortgage Loan
listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full
or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in such certification as not
covered by such certification), (a) all documents described in Paragraphs 2(a)
through 2(e) and to the extent provided in the Custodian's Mortgage Files
Paragraphs 2(f) through 2(j), if applicable, of this Agreement are in its
possession and (b) each Mortgage Note has been endorsed and each Assignment has
been executed as provided in
O-7
Paragraph 2 hereof. If the Custodian determines from such verification that any
discrepancy or deficiency exists with respect to a Custodian's Mortgage File,
the Custodian shall note such discrepancy on the schedule of exceptions attached
to the Initial Custody Receipt as Schedule B thereto (the "Exception Report").
The Custodian shall also note on the Exception Report, with respect to
each Mortgage Loan, whether a certified copy of the related Mortgage was
delivered to the Custodian in lieu of the original of such Mortgage, whether a
certified copy of an intervening assignment of the related Mortgage was
delivered to the Custodian in lieu of the original of such assignment, and
whether a preliminary title report with respect to such Mortgage Loan was
delivered to the Custodian in lieu of the original policy of title insurance.
On the first Business Day of each calendar month following delivery of
the Initial Custody Receipt until the month in which the Final Custody Receipt
is to be delivered pursuant to Subsection (b) below, the Custodian shall deliver
to the Registered Holder of the Initial Custody Receipt, an updated Exception
Report, revised to reflect any changes with respect to the status of the
exceptions noted for the related Mortgage Loans.
(b) Final Custody Receipt. Not later than sixty (60) days
following the date of each delivery of an Initial Custody Receipt, the Custodian
shall deliver to the Registered Holder of the Initial Custody Receipt the Final
Custody Receipt, with respect to the Mortgage Loans related to such Initial
Custody Receipt, in which the Custodian shall certify to the Registered Holder
that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule
(other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically
identified in such certification as not covered by such certification), (a) all
documents described in Paragraphs 2(a) through 2(e), and to the extent provided
in the Custodian's Mortgage Files Paragraphs 2(f) through 2(j), if applicable,
of this Agreement are in its possession, (b) such documents have been reviewed
by it and appear regular on their face and relate to such Mortgage Loan, (c)
based on its examination and only as to the foregoing documents, the information
set forth in items (i), (ii), (iii) excluding the zip code requirement, (iv),
(vi), (vii), (viii) and (x) of the definition of "Mortgage Loan Schedule"
respecting such Mortgage Loan is correct, and which as to items (iv), (vi),
(viii), and (x) for adjustable rate Mortgage Loans may reflect interest rates or
amounts that as of the Cutoff Date vary from those provided in the Mortgage Loan
Documents and (d) each Mortgage Note has been endorsed and each Assignment has
been executed as provided in Paragraph 2 hereof. If the Custodian determines
from such verification that any discrepancy or deficiency exists with respect to
a Custodian's Mortgage File, the Custodian shall note such discrepancy on the
Exception Report attached to the Final Custody Receipt as Schedule B thereto.
The Custodian shall also note on such Exception Report, with respect to each
Mortgage Loan, whether a certified copy of the related Mortgage was delivered to
the Custodian in lieu of the original of such Mortgage, whether a certified copy
of an intervening assignment of the related Mortgage was delivered to the
Custodian in lieu of the original of such assignment, and whether a preliminary
title report with respect to such Mortgage Loan was delivered to the Custodian
in lieu of the original policy of title insurance. Except as specifically
provided above, the Custodian shall be under no duty to review, inspect or
examine such documents to determine that any of them are enforceable or
appropriate for their prescribed purpose. Upon delivery of the Final
O-8
Custody Receipt to the Registered Holder of the Initial Custody Receipt, the
Initial Custody Receipt shall be of no further force or effect.
(c) Within five (5) days of receipt of written directions, in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit Six, from the Registered Holder with respect to
all or a portion of the Mortgage Loans owned by such Registered Holder, and upon
the prior tender by such Registered Holder of the applicable Initial and/or
Final Custody Receipt(s), as applicable, the Custodian shall deliver all or any
portion of the Custodian's Mortgage Files held by it to the Registered Holder,
or to such other party as the Registered Holder may direct, as provided in
Paragraph 19, at the place indicated in any such written direction from the
Registered Holder and shall deliver to the Registered Holder a new Initial or
Final Custody Receipt, as applicable, with respect to the Custodian's Mortgage
Files retained by the Custodian. The Registered Holder may require the Custodian
to complete the endorsements on any Mortgage Notes in its possession and to
complete the Assignment of Mortgages prepared by the Servicer in blank, within a
reasonable period of time. The cost of this shall be reimbursed by the
Registered Holder. A list of authorized signatures for such written directions
has been furnished to the Custodian by the Registered Holder pursuant to
Paragraph 20 hereof. Upon the Custodian's receipt of such written notification
from the Registered Holder that the Registered Holder has sold any or all of the
Mortgage Loans, which notification shall be accompanied by the Initial and/or
Final Custody Receipt(s), as applicable that relate to such Mortgage Loans, the
Custodian shall change its records to reflect that such purchaser is the owner
of such Mortgage Loans and shall immediately, upon the direction of such
Registered Holder, either deliver the related Custodian's Mortgage Files to such
purchaser at the expense of such purchaser or issue an Initial or Final Custody
Receipt in the name of such purchaser. Such purchaser, as a Registered Holder,
shall be required to simultaneously furnish to the Custodian a list of
authorized signatures for written directions pursuant to Paragraph 20 hereof.
The Custodian shall then deliver to the Registered Holder a new Initial and/or
Final Custody Receipt, as applicable reflecting all Mortgage Loans with respect
to which the Custodian still holds the related Custodian's Mortgage Files on
behalf of the Registered Holder. The Registered Holder and the Custodian agree
herein that any purchaser of any or all of the Mortgage Loans shall succeed to
the rights and obligations of the Registered Holder under this Agreement with
respect to such Mortgage Loans upon receipt of the related Initial and/or Final
Custody Receipt, as applicable subject to the provisions of Paragraph 15 hereof.
5. Fees and Expenses of the Custodian.
It is understood that the Custodian will charge such fees for its
services under this Agreement as are set forth in a separate agreement between
the Custodian and MLCC, the payment of which, together with the Custodian's
expenses in connection herewith, shall be solely the obligation of the
Registered Holder with respect to the related Mortgage Loans.
6. Removal of the Custodian.

the Custody Receipts and satisfaction of any outstanding fees and expenses of
the Custodian, the Custodian shall promptly transfer to such Registered Holder
or to a successor Custodian appointed by such Registered Holder at the expense
of such Registered Holder, as directed by such Registered Holder in writing, all

records and other papers in the possession of or under the control of the
Custodian relating to any or all of the Mortgage Loans for which the Custodian

expense of the inspecting party.

herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed
simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall
be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall constitute and be
one and the same instrument.

least two (2) Business Days' notice to the Custodian, the Custodian shall
provide to the Registered Holder with respect to all or a portion of the
Mortgage Loans owned by such Registered Holder, a list of all of the Mortgage
Loans for which the Custodian holds a Custodian's Mortgage File pursuant to this

certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit Five (which certification
shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection
with such payment or repurchase have been credited to the account of the
Registered Holder), the Custodian shall use its best efforts promptly and in no
event later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of the written request

If any one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of
this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, the invalidity
of any such covenant, agreement, provision or term of this Agreement shall in no
way affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this
Agreement; provided, however, that if the invalidity of any covenant, agreement
or provision shall deprive any party of the economic benefit intended to be

and replaced in its entirety with the following:
(a) The Custodian shall review the documents delivered to it on
each Delivery Date and shall deliver to Registered Holder within
the time frames outlined in exhibit B to this amendment, but prior
to Closing Date, a Mortgage Loan Schedule and Exception Report with
respect to the Mortgage Loans, and the delivery of each Mortgage
Loan Schedule and Exception Report by the Custodian hereunder shall
be the Custodian's certification that such Mortgage Loans are held
for MLCC (as Registered Holder) and that, as to each Mortgage Loan
listed in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any
Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically
identified in such certification as not covered by the Exception
Report), (a) all documents described in Paragraphs 2(a) through
2(e) and to the extent provided in the Custodian's Mortgage Files
Paragraphs 2(f) through 2(j), if applicable, of this Agreement are
in its possession, (b) such documents have reviewed by it and
appear regular on their face and relate to such Mortgage Loan, (c)
based on its examination and only as to the foregoing documents,
the information set forth in terms (i), (ii), (iii) excluding the
zip code requirement, (iv), (vi), (vii), (viii) and (x) of the
definition of "Mortgage Loan Schedule" respecting such Mortgage
Loan is correct, and which as to items (iv) (vi), (viii) and (x)
for adjustable rate Mortgage Loan Documents and (d) each Mortgage
Note has been endorsed and each Assignment has been executed as
provided in Paragraph 2 hereof. The Custodian shall determine
whether any discrepancy or deficiency exists with respect to a
Custodian's Mortgage File and shall note such discrepancy on the
Exception Report. The Custodian shall also note on such Exception
Report, with respect to each Mortgage Loan, whether a certified
copy of the related Mortgage was delivered to the Custodian in lieu
of the original of such Mortgage, whether a certified copy of an
intervening assignment of the related Mortgage was delivered to the
Custodian in lieu of the original of such assignment, and whether a
preliminary title report with respect to such Mortgage Loan was
delivered to the Custodian in lieu of the original policy of title
insurance. Except as specifically provided above, the Custodian
shall be under no duty to review, inspect or examine such documents
to determine that any of them are enforceable or appropriate for
their prescribed purpose.
(b) On the date of this Amendment, the Custodian shall deliver to
MLCC, a Trust Receipt with a Mortgage Loan Schedule and Exception
Report attached thereto reflecting all Mortgage Loans subject to
the Custodial Agreement as of such date.
(c) Each Mortgage Loan Schedule and Exception Report delivered by
the Custodian to MLCC shall supersede and cancel the Mortgage Loan
Schedule and Exception Report previously delivered by the Custodian
to MLCC hereunder, and shall replace the then existing Mortgage
Loan Schedule and Exception Report to be attached to the Trust
Receipt. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein,
in the event that the Mortgage Loan Schedule and Exception Report
attached to the Trust Receipt
P-2
is different from the most recently delivered Mortgage Loan
Schedule and Exception Report, then the most recently delivered
Mortgage Loan Schedule and Exception Report shall control and be
binding upon the parties hereto.
(d) The Custodian shall deliver to MLCC, electronically a Mortgage
Loan Schedule and Exception Report reflecting any additional
Mortgage Loans received and reviewed in accordance with the
procedures set forth in Section 2(a) hereof.
(e) Within five (5) days of receipt of written directions, in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit Six, from the Registered Holder
with respect to all or a portion of the Mortgage Loans owned by
such Registered Holder, the Custodian shall deliver all or any
portion of the Custodian's Mortgage Files held by it to Registered
Holder, or to such other party as the Registered Party may direct,
as provided in Paragraph 19, at the place indicated in any such
written direction from the Registered Holder and shall deliver to
the Registered Holder a new Mortgage Loan Schedule and Exception
Report, with respect to the Custodian's Mortgage Files retained by
the Custodian. The Registered Holder may require the Custodian to
complete the endorsements on any Mortgage Notes in its possession
and to complete the Assignment of Mortgages prepared by the
Servicer in blank, within a reasonable period of time. The cost of
this shall be reimbursed by the Registered Holder. A list of
authorized signatures for such written directions has been
furnished to the Custodian by the Registered Holder pursuant to
Paragraph 20 hereof. Upon the Custodian's receipt of such written
notification from the Registered Holder that the Registered Holder
has sold any or all of the Mortgage Loans, which notification shall
be accompanied by a Mortgage Loan Schedule identifying such
Mortgage Loans, the Custodian shall change its records to reflect
that such purchaser is the owner of such Mortgage Loans and shall
immediately, upon the direction of such Registered Holder, either
deliver the related Custodian's Mortgage Files to such purchaser at
the expense of such purchaser or issue a Mortgage Loan Schedule and
Exception Report in the name of such purchaser. Such purchaser, as
a Registered Holder, shall be required to simultaneously furnish to
the Custodian a list of authorized signatures for written
directions pursuant to Paragraph 20 hereof. The Custodian shall
then deliver to the Registered Holder a new Mortgage Loan Schedule
and Exception Report, reflecting all Mortgage Loans with respect to
which the Custodian still holds the related Custodian's Mortgage
Files on behalf of the Registered Holder. The Registered Holder and
the Custodian agree herein that any purchaser of any or all of the
Mortgage Loans shall succeed to the rights and obligations of the
Registered Holder under this Agreement with respect to such
Mortgage Loans upon receipt of its own Trust Receipt and Mortgage
Loan Schedule and Exception Report, as further specified in
Paragraph 15 hereof.

Agreement is hereby amended by deleting "Custody Receipts" from the sixth line
of the paragraph and replacing it with "Mortgage Loan Schedule and Exception
Report."

SCHEDULE A
MORTGAGE LOAN SCHEDULE
[INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]
Schedule A-1
SCHEDULE B
MORTGAGE LOAN REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
OF THE ORIGINATOR
The Originator hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser, as to
each Mortgage Loan, as of the Closing Date as follows:
(a) The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule is
true and correct in all material respects as of the Cut-off Date;
(b) As of the related Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan is not
delinquent in payment more than 30 days and the Mortgage Loan has not been
dishonored; there are no material defaults under the terms of the Mortgage Loan;
the Originator 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, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any
amount required by the Mortgage Loan;
(c) To the best of the Originator's knowledge, with respect to
those Mortgage Loans as to which the Mortgagors are required to deposit funds
into an escrow account for payment of taxes, assessments, insurance premiums and
similar items as they become due, there are no delinquent taxes, ground rents,
water charges, sewer rents, assessments or other outstanding charges which
constitute a lien on the related Mortgaged Property, and all escrow deposits
have been collected, are under the control of the Servicer, and have been
applied to the payment of such items in a timely fashion, in accordance with
such Mortgage. No escrow deposits or escrow payments or other charges or
payments due the Servicer have been capitalized under the related Mortgage or
Mortgage Note. With respect to those Mortgage Loans for which escrow deposits
are not required, to the best of the Originator's knowledge, there are no
delinquent taxes or other outstanding charges affecting the related Mortgaged
Property which constitute a lien on the related Mortgaged Property;
(d) The terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not been
impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written
instruments contained in the Mortgage File, approved, if necessary, by the
insurer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy and recorded in all places
necessary to maintain the first priority of the lien, the substance of which
waiver, alteration or modification is reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule.
No Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with
an assumption agreement which assumption agreement is part of the Mortgage File
and the terms of which are reflected in the Mortgage Loan Schedule;
(e) Neither the Mortgage Note nor the Mortgage is subject to any
right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of
usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note and the
Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the 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 to the best
of the Originator's knowledge, no such right of rescission, set-off,
counterclaim or defense has been asserted by any Person with respect thereto;
Schedule B-1
(f) All buildings upon the Mortgaged Property are required to be
insured by a generally acceptable insurer against loss by fire, hazards of
extended coverage and such other hazards as are customarily included in extended
coverage in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, pursuant to
standard hazard insurance policies in an amount which is equal to the lesser of
(A) the replacement cost of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan or (B)
the principal balance owing on such Mortgage Loan. To the best knowledge of the
Originator, all such standard hazard policies are in effect. On the date of
origination, such standard hazard policies contained a standard mortgagee clause
naming the Originator or the Originator of the Mortgage Loan and their
respective successors in interest as mortgagee and, to the best knowledge of the
Originator, such clause is still in effect and, to the best of the Originator's
knowledge, all premiums due thereon have been paid. If the Mortgaged Property is
located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as
having special flood hazards under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1994, as
amended, such Mortgaged Property is covered by flood insurance in the amount
required under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1994. The Mortgage obligates
the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance at 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 Mortgagor's cost and expense and to seek
reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor;
(g) To the best of the Originator's knowledge, at the time of
origination of such Mortgage Loan and thereafter, all requirements of any
federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury,
truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection,
equal credit opportunity or disclosure laws required to be complied with by the
Originator as the Originator of the Mortgage Loan and applicable to the Mortgage
Loan have been complied with in all material respects;
(h) The Mortgage has not been satisfied as of the Closing Date,
canceled or subordinated, in whole, or rescinded, and the Mortgaged Property has
not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part (except for
a release that does not materially impair the security of the Mortgage Loan or a
release the effect of which is reflected in the Loan-to-Value Ratio for the
Mortgage Loan as set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule), nor to the best of
the Originator's knowledge has any instrument been executed that would effect
any such release, cancellation, subordination or rescission;
(i) Ownership of the Mortgaged Property is held in fee simple or a
leasehold estate. With respect to Mortgage Loans that are secured by a leasehold
estate, (i) the lease is valid, in full force and effect, and conforms to all of
FNMA's requirements for leasehold estates; (ii) all rents and other payments due
under the lease have been paid; (iii) the lessee is not in default under any
provision of the lease; (iv) the term of the lease exceeds the maturity date of
the related Mortgage Loan by at least five (5) years; and (v) the terms of the
lease provide a Mortgagee with an opportunity to cure any defaults. Except as
permitted by the fourth sentence of this paragraph (i), the Mortgage is a valid,
subsisting and enforceable first lien on the Mortgaged Property, including all
buildings on the Mortgaged Property and all installations and mechanical,
electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems affixed to such
buildings, and all additions, alterations and replacements made at any time with
respect to the foregoing securing the Mortgage Note's original principal
balance. The Mortgage and the Mortgage Note do not contain any evidence on their
face of any security interest or other interest or right thereto.
Schedule B-2
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, or which are specifically
referred to in the lender's title insurance policy delivered to the Originator
of the Mortgage Loan 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 in the aggregate 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 in the aggregate
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 and enforceable first lien and first
priority security interest on the property described therein. With respect to
each Co-op Loan, the security instruments create a valid, enforceable and
subsisting first priority security interest in the Co-op Lease and Co-op Stock
securing the related Mortgage Note subject to only to (a) the lien of the
related cooperative for unpaid assessments representing the Mortgagor's pro rata
share of payments for a blanket mortgage, if any, 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 the
collateral is commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the
benefits of the security intended to be provided; provided, however, that the
related Co-op Loan may be subordinated or otherwise subject to the lien of a
Mortgage on the cooperative building;
(j) The Mortgage Note is not subject to a third party's security
interest or other rights or interest therein;
(k) The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are genuine and
each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof,
enforceable in accordance with its terms subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and
other laws of general application affecting the rights of creditors. 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 properly 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) Originator has good title to, and the full right to transfer
and sell, the Mortgage Loan free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, lien,
pledge, charge, claim or security interest, including, to the best knowledge of
the Originator, any lien, claim or other interest arising by operation of law;
(m) To the best of the Originator's knowledge, each 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 paragraph (ix)(1) (2) and (3) above) the Originator, its
Schedule B-3
successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in the
original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan. To the best of the Originator's
knowledge, the Originator is the sole insured of such lender's title insurance
policy, such title insurance policy has been duly and validly endorsed to the
Purchaser or the assignment to the Purchaser of the Originator's interest
therein does not require the consent of or notification to the insurer 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. To the best of the Originator's knowledge, no claims have been made
under such lender's title insurance policy, and no prior holder of the related
Mortgage has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage
of such lender's title insurance policy;
(n) To the best of the Originator's knowledge, there is no
default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing 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, except for any
Mortgage Loan payment which is not late by more than 30 days, and the Originator
has not waived any default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration;
(o) To the best of the Originator's knowledge, there are no
mechanics' or similar liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or
material (and, to the best of the Originator's knowledge, no rights are
outstanding that under law could give rise to such lien) affecting the related
Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate
with, the lien of the related Mortgage;
(p) To the best of the Originator's knowledge, all improvements
subject to the Mortgage, lay 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 paragraph (xiii) above and all
improvements on the property comply with all applicable zoning and subdivision
laws and ordinances;
(q) To the best of the Originator's knowledge, each Mortgage Loan
was originated by the Originator or by a savings association, a savings bank, a
commercial bank or similar banking institution that is supervised and examined
by a Federal or state banking authority, a mortgagee approved by the Secretary
of HUD pursuant to Section 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act, or a FNMA-
or FHLMC-approved seller. To the best of the Originator's knowledge, each
Mortgage Loan was underwritten generally in accordance with the Underwriting
Standards as in effect at the time of origination. To the best of the
Originator's knowledge, the Mortgage contains the usual and customary provision
of the Originator at the time of origination for the acceleration of the payment
of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan if the related Mortgaged
Property is sold without the prior consent of the mortgagee thereunder;
(r) The Mortgaged Property at origination or acquisition was and,
to the best of the Originator's knowledge, currently is free of material damage
and waste and at origination there was, and to the best of the Originator's
knowledge there currently is, no proceeding pending for the total or partial
condemnation thereof;
Schedule B-4
(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, (1) in the case of a Mortgage
designated as a deed of trust, by trustee's sale or judicial foreclosure, and
(2) otherwise by judicial foreclosure. The Originator has no knowledge of any
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;
(t) To the best of the Originator's knowledge, if the Mortgage
constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, 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 are or will become
payable 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) With respect to each Mortgage Loan, there is either (i) an
automated property valuation report or (ii) an appraisal on a FNMA-approved form
(or a narrative residential appraisal) of the related Mortgaged Property that
conforms to the applicable requirements of the Financial Institutions Reform
Recovery and Enforcement Act and that was signed prior to the approval of such
Mortgage Loan application by a qualified appraiser, appointed by the Originator
or the Originator of such Mortgage Loan, as appropriate, who has no interest,
direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the
security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or
disapproval of such Mortgage Loan;
(v) No Mortgage Loan contains "subsidized buydown" or "graduated
payment" features;
(w) The Mortgaged Property is a single-family (one- to four-unit)
dwelling residence erected thereon, or an individual condominium unit in a
condominium, or a Co-operative Apartment or an individual unit in a planned unit
development or in a de minimis planned unit development as defined by FNMA. No
such residence is a mobile home or a manufactured dwelling which is not
permanently attached to the land;
(x) No Mortgage Loan provides for negative amortization;
(y) No Mortgage Loan had an original term in excess of thirty (30)
years;
(z) [RESERVED]
(aa) Each Mortgage Loan is a "qualified mortgage" within the
meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (without regard to Treasury
Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f) or any similar rule that provides that a
defective obligation is a qualified mortgage for a temporary period);
(bb) No Mortgage Loan provides for interest other than at either
(x) a single fixed rate in effect throughout the term of the Mortgage Loan or
(y) a single "variable rate" (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section
1.860G-1(a)(3)) in effect throughout the term of the Mortgage Loan.
Schedule B-5
(cc) No Mortgage Loan is the subject of pending or final
foreclosure proceedings.
(dd) Based on delinquencies in payment on the Mortgage Loans, the
Originator would not initiate foreclosure proceedings with respect to any of the
Mortgage Loans prior to the next scheduled payment date on such Mortgage Loan.
(ee) Each Mortgage Note is comprised of one original promissory
note and each such promissory note constitutes an "instrument" for purposes of
section 9-102(a)(65) of the UCC.
(ff) No predatory or deceptive lending practices, including but not
limited to, the extension of credit to the Mortgagor without regard for the
Mortgagor's ability to repay the Mortgage Loan and the extension of credit to
the Mortgagor which has no apparent benefit to the Mortgagor, were employed by
the Originator in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan.
(gg) The Originator has complied with all applicable anti-money
laundering laws and regulations, including without limitation the USA Patriot
Act of 2001 (collectively, the "Anti-Money Laundering Laws"); the Originator has
established an anti-money laundering compliance program as required by the
Anti-Money Laundering Laws, has conducted the requisite due diligence in
connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan for purposes of the
Anti-Money Laundering Laws, including with respect to the legitimacy of the
applicable Mortgagor and the origin of the assets used by the said Mortgagor to
purchase the property in question, and maintains, and will maintain, sufficient
information to identify the applicable Mortgagor for purposes of the Anti-Money
Laundering Laws.
(hh) Each Mortgage Loan is in compliance with the anti-predatory
lending eligibility for purchase requirements of FNMA's Selling Guide.
(ii) No Mortgagor was encouraged or required to select a Mortgage
Loan product offered by the Originator which is a higher cost product designed
for less creditworthy mortgagors, unless at the time of the Mortgage Loan's
origination, such Mortgagor did not qualify taking into account credit history
and debt-to-income ratios for a lower-cost credit product then offered by the
Originator or any affiliate of the Originator. If, at the time of loan
application, the Mortgagor may have qualified for a for a lower-cost credit
product then offered by any mortgage lending affiliate of the Originator, the
Originator referred the Mortgagor's application to such affiliate for
underwriting consideration.
(jj) The methodology used in underwriting the extension of credit
for each Mortgage Loan employs objective mathematical principles which relate
the Mortgagor's income, assets and liabilities to the proposed payment and such
underwriting methodology does not rely on the extent of the Mortgagor's equity
in the collateral as the principal determining factor in approving such credit
extension. Such underwriting methodology confirmed that at the time of
origination (application/approval) the Mortgagor had a reasonable ability to
make timely payments on the Mortgage Loan.
(kk) With respect to any Mortgage Loan that contains a provision
permitting imposition of a premium upon a prepayment prior to maturity: (i)
prior to the loan's origination, the Mortgagor agreed to such premium in
exchange for a monetary benefit, including but not
Schedule B-6
limited to a rate or fee reduction, (ii) prior to the loan's origination, the
Mortgagor was offered the option of obtaining a mortgage loan that did not
require payment of such a premium, (iii) the prepayment premium is disclosed to
the Mortgagor in the loan documents pursuant to applicable state and federal
law, and (iv) notwithstanding any state or federal law to the contrary, the
Servicer shall not impose such prepayment premium in any instance when the
mortgage debt is accelerated as the result of the Mortgagor's default in making
the loan payments.
(ll) No Mortgagor was required to purchase any credit life,
disability, accident or health insurance product as a condition of obtaining the
extension of credit. No Mortgagor obtained a prepaid single-premium credit life,
disability, accident or health insurance policy in connection with the
origination of the Mortgage Loan. No proceeds from any Mortgage Loan were used
to purchase single premium credit insurance policies as part of the origination
of, or as a condition to closing, such Mortgage Loan.
(mm) All points and fees related to each Mortgage Loan were
disclosed in writing to the Mortgagor in accordance with applicable state and
federal law and regulation. Except in the case of a Mortgage Loan in an original
principal amount of less than $60,000 which would have resulted in an
unprofitable origination, no Mortgagor was charged "points and fees" (whether or
not financed) in an amount greater than 5% of the principal amount of such loan,
such 5% limitation is calculated in accordance with FNMA's anti-predatory
lending requirements as set forth in the FNMA Selling Guide. All points and fees
related to each Mortgage Loan are accurately described on the Mortgage Loan
Schedule.
(nn) All fees and charges (including finance charges) and whether
or not financed, assessed, collected or to be collected in connection with the
origination and servicing of each Mortgage Loan has been disclosed in writing to
the Mortgagor in accordance with applicable state and federal law and
regulation.
