Notwithstanding the above, the Servicer or its designee may waive a Prepayment Charge without remitting the amount of the foregone Prepayment Charge to the Custodial Account if (i) such waiver relates to a prepayment which is not a result of a refinancing by the Servicer or any of its affiliates and (ii) the Mortgage Loan is in default or foreseeable default and such waiver (a) is standard and customary in servicing similar mortgage loans to the Mortgage Loans and (b) would, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan or (iii) the collection of the Prepayment Charge would be in violation of applicable laws.

In the event that the environmental inspection report is inconclusive as to the whether or not the Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, the Servicer shall not, without the prior approval of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. In such instance, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer shall be deemed to have approved such foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure unless either notifies the Servicer in writing, within five (5) days after its receipt of written notice of the proposed foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure from the Servicer, that it disapproves of the related foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure.

(ii)
by amending clause (v) thereof by adding the words “Section 4.01 and” before the reference to Section 8.01.

In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any REO Property in connection with a default or imminent default on a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property not later than the end of the third taxable year after the year of its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Servicer has applied for and received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions and any relevant proposed legislation and under applicable state law, the applicable Trust REMIC may hold REO Property for a longer period without adversely affecting the REMIC status of such REMIC or causing the imposition of a federal or state tax upon such REMIC and has notified the Master Servicer of such extension being granted by providing a copy of the application and the grant of such extension to the Master Servicer. If the Servicer has received such an extension, then the Servicer shall continue to attempt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value for such period longer than three years as such extension permits (the “Extended Period”). If the Servicer has not received such an extension and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending 3 months before the end of such third taxable year after its acquisition by the Trust Fund or if the Servicer has received such an extension, and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the Servicer shall, before the end of the three year period or the Extended Period, as applicable, (i) purchase such REO Property at a price equal to the REO Property’s fair market value as acceptable to the Master Servicer or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest bidder (which may be the Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce a fair price prior to the expiration of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as the case may be. The Trustee shall sign any document or take any other action reasonably requested by the Servicer which would enable the Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, to request such grant of extension.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no REO Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would: (i) cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code; or (ii) subject any Trust REMIC to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from such REO Property, including any taxes imposed by reason of Sections 860F or 860G(c) of the Code, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.

The Master Servicer shall be deemed to have approved the sale of any REO Property unless it notifies the Servicer in writing within five (5) Business Days after its receipt of the related Notice of Sale, that it disapproves of the related sale, in which case the Servicer shall not proceed with such sale; provided, however, the Master Servicer shall not take any action which would prevent the Servicer from disposing of any REO Property within the time period specified under the REMIC Provision of the Code.

Except as expressly set forth herein, the Servicer shall have full authority on behalf of the Trust Fund to do anything it reasonably deems appropriate or desirable in connection with the servicing, maintenance and administration of the PMI Policies.

To the extent coverage is available, the Servicer shall keep or cause to be kept in full force and effect the Bulk PMI Policies for as long as any Certificates are outstanding. The Servicer shall cooperate with the Qualified Insurers issuing the Bulk PMI Policies and shall use its best efforts to furnish all reasonable aid, evidence and information in the possession of the Servicer to which the Servicer has access with respect to any covered Mortgage Loan; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Bulk PMI Policies, the Servicer shall not be required to submit any reports to the Qualified Insurers issuing such Bulk PMI Policies until a reporting date that is at least 15 days after the Servicer has received sufficient loan level information from the Seller to appropriately code its servicing system in accordance with each of such Qualified Insurer’s requirements.
(b)
The Servicer shall deposit into the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.04 hereof all Insurance Proceeds received from the Bulk PMI Policies.

Subject
"Full-File" Reporting to Credit Repositories
Part IV, Section 107, of the servicing Guide currently requires servicers to report only 90-day delinquencies to the four major credit repositories. To ensure that the repositories have up-to-date information for both servicing and origination activity, we have decided to begin requiring -- as of the month ending March 31, 1996 -- servicers to provide the credit repositories a "full-file" status report for the mortgages they service for us.
"Full-file" reporting requires that servicers submit a monthly report to each of the credit repositories to describe the exact status for each mortgage they service for us. The status reported generally should be the one in effect as of the last business day of each month. Servicers may, however, use a slightly later cut-off date -- for example, at the and of the first week of a month -- to assure• that payment corrections, returned checks, and other adjustments related to the previous month's activity can be appropriately reflected in their report for that month. Statuses that must be reported for any given mortgage include the following: new origination, current, delinquent (30-, 60-, 90-days, etc.), foreclosed +and charged-off. (The credit repositories will provide the applicable codes for reporting these statuses to them.) A listing of each of the major repositories to which "full-file" status reports must be sent is attached.
Servicers are responsible for the complete and accurate reporting of mortgage status information to the repositories and for resolving any disputes that arise about the information they report. Servicers must respond promptly to any inquiries from borrowers regarding specific mortgage status information about them that was reported to the credit repositories.
Servicers should contact their Customer Account Team in their lead Xxxxxx Xxx regional office if they have any questions about this expanded reporting requirement.
