ARTICLE I
DEFINITIONS
Section 1.01. Defined Terms.
Whenever used in this Agreement, including, without
limitation, in the Preliminary Statement hereto, the following words and
phrases, unless the context otherwise requires, shall have the meanings
specified in this Article. Unless otherwise specified, all calculations
described herein shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of
twelve 30-day months.
"Accepted Servicing Practices": The servicing standards set
forth in Section 3.01.
"Accrued Certificate Interest": With respect to any Class A
Certificate, Mezzanine Certificate, the Class CE Interest and each Distribution
Date, interest accrued during the related Interest Accrual Period at the
Pass-Through Rate for such Certificate for such Distribution Date on the
Certificate Principal Balance, in the case of the Class A Certificates and the
Mezzanine Certificates, or on the Notional Amount, in the case of the Class CE
Interest, of such Certificate immediately prior to such Distribution Date. The
Class P Interest is not entitled to distributions in respect of interest and,
accordingly, will not accrue interest. All distributions of interest on the
Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates will be calculated on the
basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days in the applicable Interest
Accrual Period. All distributions of interest on the Class CE Interest will be
based on a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Accrued Certificate
Interest with respect to each Distribution Date, as to any Class A Certificate,
Mezzanine Certificate or the Class CE Interest, shall be reduced by an amount
equal to the portion allocable to such Certificate pursuant to Section 1.02
hereof of the sum of (a) the aggregate Prepayment Interest Shortfall, if any,
for such Distribution Date to the extent not covered by payments pursuant to

Section 2.01. Conveyance of the Mortgage Loans.
The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery
hereof, does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the
Trustee without recourse, for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the
Certificate Insurer, all the right, title and interest of the Depositor,
including any security interest therein for the benefit of the Depositor, in and

In connection with such transfer and assignment, the Depositor

Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee under the applicable
agreement, without recourse," with all prior and intervening
endorsements showing a complete chain of endorsement from the
originator to the Person so endorsing to the Trustee;
(ii) the original Mortgage (including any riders thereto),
noting the presence of the MIN of the Mortgage Loan and language
indicating that the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan if the Mortgage Loan is
a MOM Loan, with evidence of recording thereon, and the original

(v) the original or copies of each assumption, modification,
written assurance or substitution agreement, if any; and
67
(vi) the original lender's title insurance policy, together
with all endorsements or riders that were issued with or subsequent to
the issuance of such policy, insuring the Mortgage on the Mortgaged
Property represented therein as a fee interest vested in the Mortgagor,
or in the event such original title policy is unavailable, a written
commitment or uniform binder or preliminary report of title issued by
the title insurance or escrow company.
With respect to a maximum of 2.0% of the Original Mortgage
Loans, by outstanding principal balance of the Original Mortgage Loans as of the
Cut-off Date, if any original Mortgage Note referred to in Section 2.01(i) above
cannot be located, the obligations of the Depositor to deliver such documents
shall be deemed to be satisfied upon delivery to the Trustee of a photocopy of
such Mortgage Note, if available, with a lost note affidavit substantially in
the form of Exhibit K attached hereto. If any of the original Mortgage Notes for
which a lost note affidavit was delivered to the Trustee is subsequently

three Business Days.
If any of the documents referred to in Sections 2.01(ii),
(iii) or (iv) above has, as of the Closing Date, been submitted for recording
but either (x) has not been returned from the applicable public recording office
or (y) has been lost or such public recording office has retained the original

shall be deemed to be satisfied upon (1) delivery to the Trustee of a copy of
each such document certified by the Originator in the case of (x) above or the
applicable public recording office in the case of (y) above to be a true and
complete copy of the original that was submitted for recording and (2) if such
copy is certified by the Originator, delivery to the Trustee promptly upon
receipt thereof of either the original or a copy of such document certified by
the applicable public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the

Seller if delivery pursuant to clause (2) above will be made more than 180 days
after the Closing Date. If the original lender's title insurance policy was not
delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(vi) above, the Depositor shall deliver or
cause to be delivered to the Trustee, promptly after receipt thereof, the
original lender's title insurance policy. The Depositor shall deliver or cause
to be delivered to the Trustee promptly upon receipt thereof any other original
documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File received with respect to any
Mortgage Loan, including, but not limited to, any original documents evidencing
an assumption or modification of any Mortgage Loan.
Except with respect to any Mortgage Loan for which MERS is
identified on the Mortgage or on a properly recorded assignment of the Mortgage
as the mortgagee of record, the Trustee shall enforce the obligation of the
Originator under the Master Agreement to promptly (within sixty days following
the later of the Closing Date and the date of receipt by the Trustee of the
recording information for a Mortgage, but in no event later than ninety days
following the Closing Date) submit or cause to be submitted for recording, at
the expense of the Originator and at no expense to the Trust Fund, the Trustee,
the Servicer or the Depositor, in the appropriate public office for real
property records, each Assignment referred to in Sections 2.01(iii) and (iv)
above and the Depositor shall execute each original Assignment or cause each
original Assignment to be executed in the following form: "Deutsche Bank
National Trust Company, as Trustee under the applicable agreement." In the event
that any such Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect
therein, the Originator shall promptly prepare or cause
68
to be prepared a substitute Assignment or cure or cause to be cured such defect,
as the case may be, and thereafter cause each such Assignment to be duly
recorded. If the Originator and the Seller are unable to pay the cost of
recording the Assignments, such expense will be paid by the Trustee and shall be
reimbursable to the Trustee as an Extraordinary Trust Fund Expense.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall not be responsible for
determining whether any Assignment delivered by the Depositor hereunder is in
recordable form. In the event that any Assignment is not recorded or improperly
recorded, the Servicer shall have no liability for its failure to receive or act
on notices related to such Assignment.
In connection with the assignment of any Mortgage Loan
registered on the MERS(R) System, the Depositor further agrees that it will
cause, within 30 Business Days after the Closing Date, the MERS(R) System to
indicate that such Mortgage Loans have been assigned by the Depositor to the
Trustee in accordance with this Agreement for the benefit of the
Certificateholders by including (or deleting, in the case of Mortgage Loans
which are repurchased in accordance with this Agreement) in such computer files
(a) the code in the field which identifies the specific Trustee and (b) the code
in the field "Pool Field" which identifies the series of the Certificates issued
in connection with such Mortgage Loans. The Depositor further agrees that it
will not, and will not permit the Servicer to, and the Servicer agrees that it
will not, alter the codes referenced in this paragraph with respect to any
Mortgage Loan during the term of this Agreement unless and until such Mortgage
Loan is repurchased in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
All original documents relating to the Mortgage Loans that are
not delivered to the Trustee are and shall be held by the Seller, the Depositor
or the Servicer, as the case may be, in trust for the benefit of the Trustee on
behalf of the Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer. In the event that
any such original document is required pursuant to the terms of this Section to
be a part of a Mortgage File, such document shall be delivered promptly to the
Trustee. Any such original document delivered to or held by the Depositor that
is not required pursuant to the terms of this Section to be a part of a Mortgage
File, shall be delivered promptly to the Servicer.
Section 2.02. Acceptance of REMIC I by Trustee.
The Trustee, acknowledges receipt, subject to the provisions
of Section 2.01 and subject to any exceptions noted on the exception report
described in the next paragraph below, of the documents referred to in Section
2.01 (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(v)) above and all
other assets included in the definition of "REMIC I" under clauses (i), (iii),
(iv) and (v) (to the extent of amounts attributable thereto deposited into the
Distribution Account) and declares that it holds and will hold such documents
and the other documents delivered to it constituting a Mortgage File, and that
it holds or will hold all such assets and such other assets included in the
definition of "REMIC I" in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all
present and future Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer.
The Trustee agrees, for the benefit of the Certificateholders
and the Certificate Insurer, to review each Mortgage File on or before the
Closing Date and to certify (with a copy to the Originator) in substantially the
form attached hereto as Exhibit C-1 that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full
69
or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed
thereto as not being covered by such certification), (i) all documents
constituting part of such Mortgage File (other than such documents described in
Section 2.01(v)) required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement are
in its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it and appear
regular on their face and relate to such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on its
examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to items (i), (iii), (xi), (xii) and
(xv) of the definition of "Mortgage Loan Schedule" accurately reflects
information set forth in the Mortgage File. It is herein acknowledged that, in
conducting such review, the Trustee was under no duty or obligation (i) to
inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or
other papers to determine whether they are genuine, enforceable, valid, legally
binding, effective or appropriate for the represented purpose or whether they
have actually been recorded or are in recordable form or that they are other
than what they purport to be on their face, (ii) to determine whether any
Mortgage File should include any of the documents specified in clause (v) of
Section 2.01 or (iii) to determine the perfection or priority of any security
interest in any such documents or instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in
conducting the review described in this Section 2.02, the Trustee shall not be
responsible for determining (i) if an Assignment is sufficient under the laws of
the jurisdiction wherein the related Mortgaged Property is located to reflect of
record the sale of the Mortgage or (ii) if a Mortgage creates a first lien on,
or first priority security interest in, a Mortgaged Property.
Prior to the first anniversary date of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor, the Certificate Insurer and the Servicer
a final certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C-2 evidencing the
completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable exceptions noted
thereon, and the Servicer shall forward a copy thereof to any Sub-Servicer.
If in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making
or preparing, as the case may be, the certifications referred to above, the
Trustee finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File
to be missing or defective in any material respect, at the conclusion of its
review the Trustee shall so notify the Depositor, the Originator, the Servicer
and the Certificate Insurer. In addition, upon the discovery by the Depositor,
the Servicer, the Certificate Insurer or the Trustee of a breach of any
representation or warranty of the Interim Servicer or the Originator in the
Master Agreement or the Seller in the Assignment Agreement in respect of any
Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects such Mortgage Loan or the
interests of the Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer in such Mortgage
Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the
other parties and the Certificate Insurer.
The Trustee shall, at the written request and expense of any
Certificateholder or the Certificate Insurer, provide a written report to such
Certificateholder or the Certificate Insurer of all Mortgage Files released to
the Servicer for servicing purposes.
Section 2.03. Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans by
the Originators and the Seller.
(a) Upon discovery or receipt of notice of any materially
defective document in, or that a document is missing from, a Mortgage File or of
the breach by the Originator of any
70
representation, warranty or covenant under the Master Agreement or by the Seller
of any representation, warranty or covenant under the Assignment Agreement in
respect of any Mortgage Loan that materially adversely affects the value of such
Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the Certificateholders or the
Certificate Insurer, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Seller, the
Originator, the Certificate Insurer and the Servicer of such defect, missing
document or breach and request that the Originator or the Seller, as applicable,
deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach within 60 days from
the date the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, was notified of such
missing document, defect or breach, and if the Originator or the Seller, as
applicable, does not deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach
in all material respects during such period, the Servicer, in accordance with
Section 3.02(b), shall enforce the obligations of the Originator, under the
Master Agreement and the Seller under the Assignment Agreement to repurchase
such Mortgage Loan from REMIC I at the Purchase Price within 90 days after the
date on which the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, was notified (subject
to Section 2.03(c)) of such missing document, defect or breach, if and to the
extent that the Originator is obligated to do so under the Master Agreement or
the Seller is obligated to do so under the Assignment Agreement. The Purchase
Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan shall be remitted to the Servicer for
deposit in the Collection Account and the Trustee, upon receipt of written
certification from the Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Originator
or the Seller, as applicable, the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall
execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case
without recourse, as the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, shall furnish
to it and as shall be necessary to vest in the Originator or the Seller, as
applicable, any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto. In furtherance of the
foregoing, if the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, is not a member of
MERS and repurchases a Mortgage Loan which is registered on the MERS(R) System,
the Servicer (at the expense of the Originator or the Seller, as applicable,
without any right of reimbursement), shall cause MERS to execute and deliver an
assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS
to the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, and shall cause such Mortgage to
be removed from registration on the MERS(R) System in accordance with MERS'
rules and regulations. The Trustee shall not have any further responsibility
with regard to such Mortgage File. In lieu of repurchasing any such Mortgage
Loan as provided above, if so provided in the Master Agreement or Assignment
Agreement, the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, may cause such Mortgage
Loan to be removed from REMIC I (in which case it shall become a Deleted
Mortgage Loan) and substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in
the manner and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(b). It is
understood and agreed that the obligation of the Originator and the Seller to
cure or to repurchase (or to substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a
document is missing, a material defect in a constituent document exists or as to
which such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole
remedy respecting such omission, defect or breach available to the Trustee and
the Certificateholders.
(b) Any substitution of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans
for Deleted Mortgage Loans made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) must be effected
prior to the date which is two years after the Startup Day for REMIC I.
As to any Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Originator or
the Seller substitutes a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, such
substitution shall be effected by the Originator or the Seller, as applicable,
delivering to the Trustee, for such Qualified Substitute
71
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, as are required by Section 2.01, together with an
Officers' Certificate providing that each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loan satisfies the definition thereof and specifying the Substitution Shortfall
Amount (as described below), if any, in connection with such substitution. The
Trustee shall acknowledge receipt for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or
Loans and, within ten Business Days thereafter, shall review such documents as
specified in Section 2.02 and deliver to the Depositor, the Certificate Insurer
and the Servicer, with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or
Loans, a certification substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-1,
with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. Within one year of the date of
substitution, the Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor, the Originator, the
Certificate Insurer and the Servicer a certification substantially in the form
of Exhibit C-2 hereto with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or
Loans, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. Monthly Payments due with
respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution are
not part of REMIC I and will be retained by the Originator or the Seller, as
applicable. For the month of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders
will reflect the Monthly Payment due on such Deleted Mortgage Loan on or before
the Due Date in the month of substitution, and the Originator or the Seller, as
applicable, shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently
received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Depositor shall give or
cause to be given written notice to the Certificateholders and the Certificate
Insurer that such substitution has taken place, shall amend the Mortgage Loan
Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan from the terms of
this Agreement and the substitution of the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or
Loans and shall deliver a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the
Trustee. Upon such substitution, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or
Loans shall constitute part of the Mortgage Pool and shall be subject in all
respects to the terms of this Agreement, the Master Agreement and the Assignment
Agreement, including, all applicable representations and warranties thereof
included in the Master Agreement and Assignment Agreement.
For any month in which either Originator or the Seller, as
applicable, substitutes one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for one
or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Servicer will determine the amount (the
"Substitution Shortfall Amount"), if any, by which the aggregate Purchase Price
of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans exceeds the aggregate of, as to each such
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Stated Principal Balance thereof as of
the date of substitution, together with one month's interest on such Stated
Principal Balance at the applicable Net Mortgage Rate, plus all outstanding
Advances and Servicing Advances (including Nonrecoverable Advances and
Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances) related thereto. On the date of such
substitution, the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, will deliver or cause
to be delivered to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account an amount
equal to the Substitution Shortfall Amount, if any, and the Trustee, upon
receipt of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and
certification by the Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Originator
or the Seller, as applicable, the related Mortgage File or Files and the Trustee
shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each
case without recourse, the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, shall
deliver to it and as shall be necessary to vest therein any Deleted Mortgage
Loan released pursuant hereto.
72
In addition, the Originator or the Seller, as applicable,
shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to the Trustee and the Certificate
Insurer an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution will not
cause (a) any federal tax to be imposed on any Trust REMIC, 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 (b) any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a
REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding.
(c) Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer,
the Certificate Insurer 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 Seller
shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(b),
substitute one or more Qualified Substitute 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 2.03(a).
The Trustee shall reconvey to the Seller 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.

ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 3.01. Servicer to Act as Servicer.
Prior to the applicable Servicing Transfer Date, the parties
hereto acknowledge that the Interim Servicer shall service and administer the
Delayed Servicing Transfer Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Trust Fund and in the
best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the
Certificate Insurer (as determined by the Interim Servicer in its reasonable
judgment) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the respective
Mortgage Loans and, to the extent consistent with such terms, in the same manner
which it services and administers similar mortgage loans for its own portfolio
and that each and every right (including, but not limited to, the right to
receive the Servicing Fee and additional servicing compensation) obligation,
responsibility, duty and liabitilty of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement
(other than the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.05) shall
be a right, obligation, responsibility, duty and liability of the Interim
Servicer with respect to the Delayed Servicing Transfer Mortgage Loans until the
applicable Servicing Transfer Date. In addition, all liabilities of the Interim
Servicer incurred prior to the Servicing Transfer Date shall remain with the
Interim Servicer. Commencing on the applicable Servicing Transfer Date, the
Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Trust
Fund and in the best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders
and the Certificate Insurer (as determined by the Servicer in its reasonable
judgment) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the respective
Mortgage Loans and, to the extent consistent with such terms, in the same manner
which it services and administers similar mortgage loans for its own portfolio,
giving due consideration to customary and usual standards of practice of prudent
mortgage lenders and loan servicers administering similar mortgage loans but
without regard to:
(i) any relationship that the Servicer or any Affiliate of the
Servicer may have with the related Mortgagor;
(ii) the ownership of any Certificate by the Servicer or any
Affiliate of the Servicer;
(iii) the Servicer's obligation to make Advances or Servicing
Advances; or
(iv) the Servicer's right to receive compensation for its
services hereunder or with respect to any particular transaction.
To the extent consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer
shall also seek to maximize the timely and complete recovery of principal and
interest on the Mortgage Notes. Subject only to the above-described servicing
standards and the terms of this Agreement and of the respective Mortgage Loans,
the Servicer shall have full power and authority, to do or cause to be done any
and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which it may
79
deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Servicer in its own name is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee
when the Servicer believes it appropriate in its best judgment in accordance
with the servicing standards set forth above, to execute and deliver, on behalf
of the Trust Fund, the Certificateholders and the Trustee or any of them, and
upon written notice to the Trustee, any and all instruments of satisfaction or
cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other
comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties and to institute foreclosure proceedings or obtain a deed-in-lieu of
foreclosure so as to convert the ownership of such properties, and to hold or
cause to be held title to such properties, on behalf of the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Trust Fund and the Certificateholders. The Servicer shall service
and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with applicable state and
federal law and shall provide to the Mortgagors any reports required to be
provided to them thereby. The Servicer shall also comply in the performance of
this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under
any standard hazard insurance policy. Subject to Section 3.17, the Trustee shall
execute, at the written request of the Servicer, and furnish to the Servicer any
special or limited powers of attorney in the form of Exhibit I hereto and other
documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its
servicing and administrative duties hereunder and the Trustee shall not be
liable for the actions of the Servicer under such powers of attorney.
In accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph,
the Servicer shall make or cause to be made Servicing Advances as necessary for
the purpose of effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged
Properties, which Servicing Advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance
from related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.09, and
further as provided in Section 3.11; provided, however, the Servicer shall only
make such Servicing Advance if the Mortgagor has made such payment as set forth
in Section 3.09 or if the Mortgagor has not made such payment, if the failure to
make such Servicing Advance would result in the loss of the Mortgaged Property
due to a tax sale or foreclosure as result of a tax lien. Any cost incurred by
the Servicer in effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on a Mortgaged
Property shall not, for the purpose of calculating the Stated Principal Balance
of a Mortgage Loan or distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the
unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the
terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit.
The Servicer further is authorized and empowered by the
Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its own name or
in the name of the Sub-Servicer, when the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer, as the
case may be, believes it is appropriate in its best judgment to register any
Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System, or cause the removal from the registration
of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of
the Trustee and the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments
of assignment and other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment
or re-recording of a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the
Trustee and its successors and assigns. Any reasonable expenses incurred in
connection with the actions described in the preceding sentence or as a result
of MERS discontinuing or becoming unable to continue operations in connection
with the MERS(R) System, shall be subject to withdrawal by the Servicer from the
Collection Account.
80
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
the Servicer may not make any future advances with respect to a Mortgage Loan
(except as provided in Section 4.03) and the Servicer shall not permit any
modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage
Rate, reduce or increase the principal balance (except for reductions resulting
from actual payments of principal) or change the final maturity date on such
Mortgage Loan (unless, as provided in Section 3.07, the Mortgagor is in default
with respect to the Mortgage Loan or such default is, in the judgment of the
Servicer, reasonably foreseeable) or any modification, waiver or amendment of
any term of any Mortgage Loan that would both (A) effect an exchange or
reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under Section 1001 of the Code (or final,
temporary or proposed Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) and (B) cause
any Trust REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code
or the imposition of any tax on "prohibited transactions" or "contributions
after the startup date" under the REMIC Provisions.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in
the event of a Principal Prepayment in full of a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer may
not waive any Prepayment Charge or portion thereof required by the terms of the
related Mortgage Note unless (i) the Servicer determines that such waiver would
maximize recovery of Liquidation Proceeds for such Mortgage Loan, taking into
account the value of such Prepayment Charge, (ii)(A) the enforceability thereof
is limited (1) by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership, or other
similar law relating to creditors' rights generally or (2) due to acceleration
in connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment, or (B) the
enforceability is otherwise limited or prohibited by applicable law or (iii) the
Servicer has not been provided with information sufficient to enable it to
collect the Prepayment Charge. If a Prepayment Charge is waived as permitted by
meeting the standard described in clause (iii) above, then the Servicer shall
enforce the obligation of the Originator to pay the amount of such waived
Prepayment Charge to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account (to the
extent paid by the Originator) for the benefit of the Holders of the Class P
Certificates.
In the event of a Principal Prepayment in full with respect to
any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee a certification of
a Servicing Officer substantially in the form of Exhibit J no later than the
third Business Day following the immediately succeeding Determination Date with
a copy to the Class CE Certificateholder.
Promptly upon the earlier of discovery by the Servicer or
receipt of notice by the Servicer of the breach of the covenant of the Servicer
set forth above which materially and adversely affects the interests of the
Holders of the Class P Certificates in any Prepayment Charge, the Servicer shall
promptly pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge (or such portion
thereof as had been waived), for the benefit of the holders of the Class P
Certificates by depositing such amount into the Collection Account for
distribution in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The foregoing shall
not, however, limit any remedies available to the Certificateholders, the
Depositor or the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Fund and for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, pursuant to the Master Agreement and Assignment Agreement,
respecting a breach of the representations, warranties and covenants of the
Originator or the Seller contained in the Master Agreement or Assignment
Agreement, as applicable.
81
With respect to each Mortgage Loan which is the subject of a
Principal Prepayment in full, which prepayment is not accompanied by the payment
of a Prepayment Charge, the Trustee shall verify that such Mortgage Loan was
identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule as not being subject to a Prepayment
Charge.
The Servicer may delegate its responsibilities under this
Agreement; provided, however, that no such delegation shall release the Servicer
from the responsibilities or liabilities arising under this Agreement.
As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Servicer,
for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall enforce the
obligations of the Originator under the Master Agreement and the Seller under
the Assignment Agreement, including, without limitation, any obligation of the
Originator or the Seller to purchase a Mortgage Loan on account of missing or
defective documentation or on account of a breach of a representation, warranty
or covenant, as described in Section 2.03(a).
The Servicer shall not be liable for any actions or inactions
of the Interim Servicer or any other prior servicer of a Mortgage Loan prior to
the related Servicing Transfer Date nor shall any action or inaction by the
Interim Servicer be deemed a Servicer Event of Default.
Section 3.02. Sub-Servicing Agreements Between Servicer and
Sub-Servicers.
The Servicer may arrange for the subservicing of any Mortgage
Loan by a Sub- Servicer pursuant to a Sub-Servicing Agreement; provided that
such sub-servicing arrangement and the terms of the related Sub-Servicing
Agreement must provide for the servicing of such Mortgage Loans in a manner
consistent with the servicing arrangements contemplated hereunder.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any Sub-Servicing Agreement, any of the
provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the
Servicer or a Sub-Servicer or reference to actions taken through a Servicer or
otherwise, the Servicer shall remain obligated and liable to the Depositor, the
Trustee and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administration of the
Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without
diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Sub-Servicing
Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Sub-Servicer
and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the
Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. Every
Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into by the Servicer shall contain a provision
giving the successor Servicer the option to terminate such agreement in the
event a successor Servicer is appointed. All actions of each Sub-Servicer
performed pursuant to the related Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be performed as
an agent of the Servicer with the same force and effect as if performed directly
by the Servicer.
For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed
to have received any collections, recoveries or payments with respect to the
Mortgage Loans that are received by a Sub- Servicer regardless of whether such
payments are remitted by the Sub-Servicer to the Servicer.

Section 3.03. Successor Sub-Servicers.
The Servicer shall be entitled to terminate any Sub-Servicing
Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Sub-Servicing
Agreement and to either itself directly service the related Mortgage Loans or
enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with a successor Sub-Servicer which
qualifies under Section 3.02. Any Sub-Servicing Agreement shall include the
provision that such agreement may be immediately terminated by the Trustee (if
the Trustee is acting as Servicer) without fee, in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement, in the event that the Servicer (or the Trustee, if it is then
acting as Servicer) shall, for any reason, no longer be the Servicer (including
termination due to a Servicer Event of Default).
Section 3.04. No Contractual Relationship Between
Sub-Servicer, Trustee or the Certificateholders.
Any Sub-Servicing Agreement and any other transactions or
services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Sub-Servicer shall be deemed
to be between the Sub-Servicer and the Servicer alone and the Trustee and the
Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims,
rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to any Sub-Servicer
except as set forth in Section 3.05.
Section 3.05. Assumption or Termination of Sub-Servicing
Agreement by Trustee.
In connection with the assumption of the responsibilities,
duties and liabilities and of the authority, power and rights of the Servicer
hereunder by the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.02 or another successor Servicer,
it is understood and agreed that the Servicer's rights and obligations under any
Sub-Servicing Agreement then in force between the Servicer and a Sub-Servicer
shall be assumed simultaneously by the Trustee or another successor Servicer
without act or deed on the part of the Trustee; provided, however, that the
Trustee or any other successor Servicer may terminate the Sub-Servicer.
The Servicer shall, upon the reasonable request of the
Trustee, but at the expense of the Servicer, deliver to the assuming party
documents and records relating to each Sub-Servicing Agreement and an accounting
of amounts collected and held by it and otherwise use its best reasonable
efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Sub-Servicing
Agreements to the assuming party.
Section 3.06. [Reserved].
Section 3.07. Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments.
The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all
payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and
shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement,
follow such collection procedures as it would follow with respect to mortgage
loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held for its own account. Consistent
with the foregoing, the Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late
payment charge or, if applicable, penalty interest or (ii) extend the due dates
for the Monthly Payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period of not greater than
180 days; provided that any extension
83
pursuant to this clause shall not affect the amortization schedule of any
Mortgage Loan for purposes of any computation hereunder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that any Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment
of the Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable, the Servicer,
consistent with the standards set forth in Section 3.01 may waive, modify or
vary any term of such Mortgage Loan (including modifications that change the
Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of principal or interest or extend the final
maturity date of such Mortgage Loan), accept payment from the related Mortgagor
of an amount less than the Stated Principal Balance in final satisfaction of
such Mortgage Loan (such payment, a "Short Pay-off"), or consent to the
postponement of strict compliance with any such term or otherwise grant
indulgence to any Mortgagor if in the Servicer's determination such waiver,
modification, postponement or indulgence meets the standards of Section 3.01 and
is not materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders (taking
into account any estimated Realized Loss that might result absent such action).
The Servicer may write off any second lien Mortgage Loan that
has been delinquent for a period of 180 days or more if the Servicer determines,
applying the standards set forth in Section 3.01, that any amount that could be
recovered on such Mortgage Loan would be less than the cost required to achieve
such recovery.
Section 3.08. [Reserved].
Section 3.09. Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar
Items; Servicing Accounts.
To the extent the terms of a Mortgage provide for Escrow
Payments, the Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (the
"Servicing Accounts"), into which all collections from the Mortgagors (or
related advances from Sub-Servicers) for the payment of taxes, assessments,
fire, flood, and hazard insurance premiums, and comparable items for the account
of the Mortgagors ("Escrow Payments") shall be deposited and retained. Servicing
Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts. The Servicer shall deposit in the Servicing
Accounts on a daily basis and in no event later than the second Business Day
after receipt, and retain therein, all Escrow Payments collected on account of
the Mortgage Loans, for the purpose of effecting the timely payment of any such
items as required under the terms of this Agreement. Withdrawals of amounts from
a Servicing Account may be made only to (i) effect timely payment of taxes,
assessments, fire, flood, and hazard insurance premiums, and comparable items;
(ii) reimburse the Servicer out of related collections for any advances made
pursuant to Section 3.01 (with respect to taxes and assessments) and Section
3.14 (with respect to fire, flood and hazard insurance); (iii) refund to
Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest, if
required and as described below, to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing
Account; or (v) clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of
the Servicer's obligations and responsibilities in respect of the Mortgage Loans
under this Agreement in accordance with Article IX. As part of its servicing
duties, the Servicer shall pay to the Mortgagors interest on funds in Servicing
Accounts, to the extent required by law and, to the extent that interest earned
on funds in the Servicing Accounts is insufficient, to pay such interest from
its or their own funds, without any reimbursement therefor. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Servicer shall not be obligated to collect Escrow Payments if the
related Mortgage Loan does not require such payments but the Servicer shall
nevertheless be obligated to make Servicing Advances as
84
provided in Section 3.01. In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the
Servicing Accounts any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at
any time withdraw such amount from the Servicing Accounts, any provision to the
contrary notwithstanding.
To the extent that a Mortgage does not provide for Escrow
Payments, the Servicer (i) shall determine whether any such payments are made by
the Mortgagor in a manner and at a time that is necessary to avoid the loss of
the Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure as a result of a tax
lien and (ii) shall ensure that all insurance required to be maintained on the
Mortgaged Property pursuant to this Agreement is maintained. If any such payment
has not been made and the Servicer receives notice of a tax lien with respect to
the Mortgage Loan being imposed, the Servicer will, promptly and to the extent
required to avoid loss of the Mortgaged Property, advance or cause to be
advanced funds necessary to discharge such lien on the Mortgaged Property. The
Servicer assumes full responsibility for the payment of all such bills and shall
effect payments of all such bills irrespective of the Mortgagor's faithful
performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and
shall make Servicing Advances from its own funds to effect such payments.
Section 3.10. Collection Account, Distribution Account and
Initial Deposit Accounts.
(a) On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall establish
and maintain one or more accounts (such account or accounts, the "Collection
Account"), held in trust for the benefit of the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer
and the Certificateholders. On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall
deposit or cause to be deposited in the Collection Account on a daily basis and
in no event later than two Business Days after receipt, as and when received or
as otherwise required hereunder, the following payments and collections received
or made by it on or subsequent to the Cut-off Date:
(i) all payments on account of principal, including Principal
Prepayments, on the Mortgage Loans;
(ii) all payments on account of interest (net of the related
Servicing Fee) on each Mortgage Loan;
(iii) all Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds (other
than proceeds collected in respect of any particular REO Property and
amounts paid by the Servicer in connection with a purchase of Mortgage
Loans and REO Properties pursuant to Section 9.01);
(iv) any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section
3.12 in connection with any losses realized on Permitted Investments
with respect to funds held in the Collection Account;
(v) any amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer
pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 3.14(a) in respect of any
blanket policy deductibles;
85
(vi) any Purchase Price or Substitution Shortfall Amount
delivered to the Servicer and all proceeds (net of amounts payable or
reimbursable to the Servicer) of Mortgage Loans purchased in accordance
with Section 9.01; and
(vii) any Prepayment Charges or amounts required to be
deposited by the Servicer in connection with a breach of its
obligations under Section 3.01 with respect to the waiver of Prepayment
Charges.
The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection
Accounts shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late payment
charges, assumption fees or other similar fees need not be deposited by the
Servicer in the Collection Account. In the event the Servicer shall deposit in
the Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may
at any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account, any provision
herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
(b) On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Trustee shall establish
and maintain one or more accounts (such account or accounts, the "Distribution
Account"), held in trust for the benefit of the Trustee, the Trust Fund, the
Certificate Insurer and the Certificateholders. On behalf of the Trust Fund, the
Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee in immediately available funds for deposit
in the Distribution Account on or before 3:00 p.m. New York time (i) on the
Servicer Remittance Date, that portion of the Available Distribution Amount
(calculated without regard to the references in clause (2) of the definition
thereof to amounts that may be withdrawn from the Distribution Account) for the
related Distribution Date then on deposit in the Collection Account and the
amount of all Prepayment Charges collected by the Servicer in connection with
the Principal Prepayment of any of the Mortgage Loans (including the amount of
any payment by the Servicer in respect of a waived Prepayment Charge, other than
as permitted in Section 3.01) then on deposit in the Collection Account and the
amount of any funds reimbursable to an Advance Financing Person pursuant to
Section 3.28, and (ii) on each Business Day as of the commencement of which the
balance on deposit in the Collection Account exceeds $75,000 following any
withdrawals pursuant to the next succeeding sentence, the amount of such excess,
but only if the Collection Account constitutes an Eligible Account solely
pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of "Eligible Account." If the balance
on deposit in the Collection Account exceeds $75,000 as of the commencement of
business on any Business Day and the Collection Account constitutes an Eligible
Account solely pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of "Eligible Account,"
the Servicer shall, on or before 5:00 p.m. New York time on such Business Day,
withdraw from the Collection Account any and all amounts payable or reimbursable
to the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Originator, the Interim
Servicer or the Seller pursuant to Section 3.11 and shall pay such amounts to
the Persons entitled thereto.
(c) Funds in the Collection Account and the Distribution
Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with the
provisions set forth in Section 3.12. The Servicer shall give notice to the
Trustee of the location of the Collection Account maintained by it when
established and prior to any change thereof. The Trustee shall give notice to
the Servicer and the Depositor of the location of the Distribution Account when
established and prior to any change thereof.
86
(d) Funds held in the Collection Account at any time may be
delivered by the Servicer in immediately available funds to the Trustee for
deposit in the Distribution Account. In the event the Servicer shall deliver to
the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account any amount not required to
be deposited therein, it may at any time request that the Trustee withdraw such
amount from the Distribution Account and remit to it any such amount, any
provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In no event shall the Trustee
incur liability as a result of withdrawals from the Distribution Account at the
direction of the Servicer in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.
In addition, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee from time to time for
deposit in the Distribution Account the amounts set forth in clauses (i) through
(iv) below:
(i) any Advances, as required pursuant to Section 4.03;
(ii) any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section
3.23(d) or 3.23(f) in connection with any REO Property;
(iii) any amounts to be paid in connection with a purchase of
Mortgage Loans and REO Properties pursuant to Section 9.01; and
(iv) any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section
3.24 in connection with any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls.
(e) In order to comply with its duties under the U.S.A.
Patriot Act of 2001, the Trustee shall obtain and verify certain information and
documentation from the other parties to this Agreement including, but not
limited to, each such party's name, address, and other identifying information.
Section 3.11. Withdrawals from the Collection Account and
Distribution Account.
(a) The Servicer shall, from time to time, make withdrawals
from the Collection Account for any of the following purposes or as described in
Section 4.03:
(i) to remit to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution
Account the amounts required to be so remitted pursuant to Section
3.10(b) or permitted to be so remitted pursuant to the first sentence
of Section 3.10(d);
(ii) subject to Section 3.16(d), to reimburse the Servicer or
Interim Servicer, as the case may be, for Advances, but only to the
extent of amounts received which represent Late Collections (net of the
related Servicing Fees) of Monthly Payments on Mortgage Loans with
respect to which such Advances were made in accordance with the
provisions of Section 4.03;
(iii) subject to Section 3.16(d), to pay the Servicer or
Interim Servicer, as the case may be, any unpaid Servicing Fees and
reimburse the Servicer or Interim Servicer, as the case may be, any
unreimbursed Servicing Advances with respect to each Mortgage Loan, but
only to the extent of any Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds
received with respect to such Mortgage Loan;
87
(iv) to pay to the Servicer or the Interim Servicer, as the
case may be, as servicing compensation (in addition to the Servicing
Fee) on the Servicer Remittance Date any interest or investment income
earned on funds deposited in the Collection Account;
(v) to pay to the Servicer, the Originator or the Seller, as
the case may be, with respect to each Mortgage Loan that has previously
been purchased or replaced pursuant to Section 2.03 or Section 3.16(c)
all amounts received thereon not included in the Purchase Price or the
Substitution Shortfall Amount;
(vi) to reimburse the Servicer or the Interim Servicer, as the
case may be, for any Advance or Servicing Advance previously made which
the Servicer has determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance or a
Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance in accordance with the provisions of
Section 4.03 or a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance in connection with
any outstanding advances on a second lien Mortgage Loan that has been
written off pursuant to Section 3.07;
(vii) to reimburse the Servicer, the Interim Servicer or the
Depositor for expenses incurred by or reimbursable to the Servicer, the
Interim Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, pursuant to
Section 3.01 or Section 6.03;
(viii) to reimburse the Servicer, the Interim Servicer, the
Certificate Insurer or the Trustee, as the case may be, for expenses
reasonably incurred in respect of the breach or defect giving rise to
the purchase obligation under Section 2.03 of this Agreement that were
included in the Purchase Price of the Mortgage Loan, including any
expenses arising out of the enforcement of the purchase obligation;
(ix) to pay, or to reimburse the Servicer for advances in
respect of, expenses incurred in connection with any Mortgage Loan
pursuant to Section 3.16(b);
(x) to clear and terminate the Collection Account pursuant to
Section 9.01; and
(xi) to reimburse itself or the Interim Servicer, as the case
may be, for any Advances previously made from the Collection Account,
to the extent of funds held therein for future distribution.
The foregoing requirements for withdrawal from the Collection
Account shall be exclusive. In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the
Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at
any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account, any provision herein
to the contrary notwithstanding.
Following the last Servicing Transfer Date, the Servicer shall
immediately withdraw and remit to the Interim Servicer all previously
unreimbursed Servicing Advances, Advances, Servicing Fees and all other amounts
to which the Interim Servicer is entitled pursuant to the foregoing and the
other terms of this Agreement, on a "first-in, first-out" basis.
88
The Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a
Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any
withdrawal from the Collection Account, to the extent held by or on behalf of
it, pursuant to subclauses (ii), (iii), (v), (vi), (viii) and (ix) above. The
Servicer shall provide written notification to the Trustee and the Certificate
Insurer on or prior to the next succeeding Servicer Remittance Date, upon making
any withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to subclauses (vi) and
(vii) above.
(b) The Trustee shall, from time to time, make withdrawals
from the Distribution Account, for any of the following purposes, without
priority:
(i) to make distributions to Certificateholders or the
Certificate Insurer in accordance with Section 4.01;
(ii) to pay to itself amounts to which it is entitled pursuant
to Section 8.05 and any Extraordinary Trust Fund Expenses;
(iii) to reimburse itself pursuant to Section 7.02;
(iv) to pay to an Advance Financing Person reimbursements for
Advances and/or Servicing Advances pursuant to Section 3.28;
(v) to pay any amounts in respect of taxes pursuant to Section
10.01(g)(iii); and
(vi) to clear and terminate the Distribution Account pursuant
to Section 9.01.
Section 3.12. Investment of Funds in the Investment Accounts.
(a) The Servicer may direct, by means of written directions
(which may be standing directions), any depository institution maintaining the
Collection Account to invest the funds in the Collection Account (for purposes
of this Section 3.12, an "Investment Account") in one or more Permitted
Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable
on demand, (i) no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the date on
which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this
Agreement, if a Person other than the Trustee is the obligor thereon, and (ii)
no later than the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from
such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the Trustee is the obligor thereon.
Amounts in the Distribution Account may be held uninvested or invested in one or
more Permitted Investments maturing no later than the Business Day prior to the
related Distribution Date. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to
maturity, unless payable on demand. Any investment of funds shall be made in the
name of the Trustee (in its capacity as such) or in the name of a nominee of the
Trustee. The Trustee shall be entitled to sole possession over each such
investment (except with respect to investment direction of funds held in the
Collection Account) and, subject to subsection (b) below, the income thereon,
and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment shall be
delivered directly to the Trustee or its agent, together with any document of
transfer necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Trustee or its
nominee. In the event amounts on deposit in the Collection
89
Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand,
the party with investment discretion over such Investment Account shall:
(x) consistent with any notice required to be given
thereunder, demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such
Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal
to the lesser of (1) all amounts then payable thereunder and (2) the
amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and
(y) demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon
determination by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee that such
Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment in
respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the Investment Account.
(b) All income and gain realized from the investment of funds
deposited in the Collection Account held by or on behalf of the Servicer or the
Trustee, shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and shall be subject to its
withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.11. The Servicer shall deposit in the
Collection Account the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any such
Permitted Investment made with funds in such account immediately upon
realization of such loss. All earnings and gain realized from the investment of
funds deposited in the Distribution Account shall be for the benefit of the
Trustee. The Trustee shall remit from its own funds for deposit into the
Distribution Account the amount of any loss incurred on Permitted Investments in
the Distribution Account, if amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account are
invested in Permitted Investments by the Trustee in the absence of direction
from another party.
(c) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement,
if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted
Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any
Permitted Investment, the Trustee may and, subject to Section 8.01 and Section
8.02(v), shall, at the written direction of the Servicer, take such action as
may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the
institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.
(d) The Trustee or its Affiliates are permitted to receive
additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Trustee's economic
self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder
servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the
Permitted Investments, (ii) using Affiliates to effect transactions in certain
Permitted Investments and (iii) effecting transactions in certain Permitted
Investments. Such compensation shall not be considered an amount that is
reimbursable or payable to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.11 or 3.12 or
otherwise payable in respect of Extraordinary Trust Fund Expenses.
Section 3.13. [Reserved].
Section 3.14. Maintenance of Hazard Insurance and Errors and
Omissions and Fidelity Coverage.
(a) The terms of each Mortgage Note require the related
Mortgagor to maintain fire, flood and hazard insurance policies. To the extent
such policies are not maintained, the Servicer shall cause to be maintained for
each Mortgaged Property fire and hazard insurance
90
with extended coverage as is customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property
is located in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of the current
principal balance of such Mortgage Loan and the amount necessary to fully
compensate for any damage or loss to the improvements which are a part of such
property on a replacement cost basis, in each case in an amount not less than
such amount as is necessary to avoid the application of any coinsurance clause
contained in the related hazard insurance policy. The Servicer shall also cause
to be maintained fire and hazard insurance on each REO Property with extended
coverage as is customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in
an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable
value of the improvements which are a part of such property and (ii) the
outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan at the time it became
an REO Property. The Servicer will comply in the performance of this Agreement
with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any such hazard
policies. Any amounts to be collected by the Servicer under any such policies
(other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property
subject to the related Mortgage or amounts to be released to the Mortgagor in
accordance with the procedures that the Servicer would follow in servicing loans
held for its own account, subject to the terms and conditions of the related
Mortgage and Mortgage Note) shall be deposited in the Collection Account,
subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.11, if received in respect of a
Mortgage Loan, or in the REO Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section
3.23, if received in respect of an REO Property. Any cost incurred by the
Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of
calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid
principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms
of such Mortgage Loan so permit. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake
or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor other than
pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in
force and as shall require such additional insurance. If the Mortgaged Property
or REO Property is at any time in an area identified in the Federal Register by
the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards, the
Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy in respect
thereof. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i)
the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and (ii) the maximum
amount of such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property under the
national flood insurance program (assuming that the area in which such Mortgaged
Property is located is participating in such program).
In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a
blanket policy with an insurer having a General Policy Rating of B:VI or better
in Best's Key Rating Guide insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage
Loans, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set
forth in the first two sentences of this Section 3.14, it being understood and
agreed that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the
Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the
related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with the first two
sentences of this Section 3.14, and there shall have been one or more losses
which would have been covered by such policy, deposit to the Collection Account
from its own funds the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy
because of such deductible clause. In connection with its activities as
administrator and servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer agrees to prepare
and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee, the Trust Fund, the Certificate
Insurer and the Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy in a
timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy.
91
(b) The Servicer shall keep in force during the term of this
Agreement a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and omissions for
failure in the performance of its respective obligations under this Agreement,
which policy or policies shall be in such form and amount that would meet the
requirements of Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac if it were the purchaser of the
Mortgage Loans, unless the Servicer, has obtained a waiver of such requirements
from Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac. The Servicer shall also maintain (and shall
cause any Sub-Servicer to maintain) a fidelity bond in the form and amount that
would meet the requirements of Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac, unless the Servicer,
has obtained a waiver of such requirements from Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac. The
Servicer shall provide the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer (upon reasonable
request) copies of any such insurance policies and fidelity bond. The Servicer
shall be deemed to have complied with this provision if an Affiliate of the
Servicer, has such errors and omissions and fidelity bond coverage and, by the
terms of such insurance policy or fidelity bond, the coverage afforded
thereunder extends to the Servicer. Any such errors and omissions policy and
fidelity bond shall by its terms not be cancelable without thirty days' prior
written notice to the Trustee.
Section 3.15. Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption
Agreements.
The Servicer will, to the extent it has knowledge of any
conveyance or prospective conveyance of any Mortgaged Property by any Mortgagor
(whether by absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the
Mortgagor remains or is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the
Mortgage), exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan
under the "due-on-sale" clause, if any, applicable thereto; provided, however,
that the Servicer shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law from
doing so. If the Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law
to enforce such "due-on-sale" clause, or if any of the other conditions set
forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence apply, the Servicer will enter
into an assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to whom
such property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which
such person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted
by applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. The Servicer is
also authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with such
person, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and
such person is substituted as the Mortgagor and becomes liable under the
Mortgage Note, provided that no such substitution shall be effective unless such
person satisfies the then current underwriting criteria of the Servicer for
mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage Loans. In connection with any assumption
or substitution, the Servicer shall apply such underwriting standards and follow
such practices and procedures as shall be normal and usual in its general
mortgage servicing activities and as it applies to other mortgage loans owned
solely by it. The Servicer shall not take or enter into any assumption and
modification agreement, however, unless (to the extent practicable in the
circumstances) it shall have received confirmation, in writing, of the continued
effectiveness of any applicable hazard insurance policy. Any fee collected by
the Servicer in respect of an assumption or substitution of liability agreement
will be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation. In
connection with any such assumption, no material term of the Mortgage Note
(including but not limited to the related Mortgage Rate and the amount of the
Monthly Payment) may be amended or modified, except as otherwise required
pursuant to the terms thereof. The Servicer shall notify the Trustee that any
such substitution or assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to
the Trustee the executed original of such
92
substitution or assumption agreement, which document shall be added to the
related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such
Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments
constituting a part thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision
of this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or
any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of
a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or by the terms of the Mortgage Note or any
assumption which the Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any
reason whatever. For purposes of this Section 3.15, the term "assumption" is
deemed to also include a sale (of the Mortgaged Property) subject to the
Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability
agreement.
Section 3.16. Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
(a) The Servicer shall use its best efforts, consistent with
Accepted Servicing Practices, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert
the ownership of properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and
continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for
collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 3.07. The Servicer shall
be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such
proceedings; provided, however, that such costs and expenses will be recoverable
as Servicing Advances by the Servicer as contemplated in Sections 3.11 and 3.23.
The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which a Mortgaged
Property shall have suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Servicer shall
not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such property
unless it shall determine in its discretion that such restoration will increase
the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to
itself for such expenses.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section
3.16 or any other provision of this Agreement, with respect to any Mortgage Loan
as to which the Servicer has received actual notice of, or has actual knowledge
of, the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance on the related Mortgaged
Property, the Servicer shall not, on behalf of the Trust Fund, either (i) obtain
title to such Mortgaged Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or
otherwise, or (ii) otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action
with respect to, such Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action,
the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer or the Certificateholders
would be considered to hold title to, to be a "mortgagee-in-possession" of, or
to be an "owner" or "operator" of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of
the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of
1980, as amended from time to time, or any comparable law, unless the Servicer
has also previously determined, based on its reasonable judgment and a prudent
report prepared by an Independent Person who regularly conducts environmental
audits using customary industry standards, that:
(1) such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable
environmental laws or, if not, that it would be in the best economic
interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions as are necessary to
bring the Mortgaged Property into compliance therewith; and
93
(2) there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged
Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous
substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes or petroleum-based
materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment,
clean-up or remediation could be required under any federal, state or
local law or regulation, or that if any such materials are present for
which such action could be required, that it would be in the best
economic interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions with respect
to the affected Mortgaged Property.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such environmental audit reveals, or
if the Servicer has actual knowledge or notice, that such Mortgaged Property
contains such toxic or hazardous wastes or substances, the Servicer shall not
foreclose or accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure without the prior written
consent of the Certificate Insurer (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld).
The cost of the environmental audit report contemplated by
this Section 3.16 shall be advanced by the Servicer, subject to the Servicer's
right to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as provided in
Section 3.11(a)(ix), such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of
Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account received in
respect of the affected Mortgage Loan or other Mortgage Loans.
If the Servicer determines, as described above, that it is in
the best economic interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions as are
necessary to bring any such Mortgaged Property into compliance with applicable
environmental laws, or to take such action with respect to the containment,
clean-up or remediation of hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous
wastes, or petroleum-based materials affecting any such Mortgaged Property, then
the Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic
interest of the Trust Fund. The cost of any such compliance, containment,
cleanup or remediation shall be advanced by the Servicer, subject to the
Servicer's right to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as
provided in Sections 3.11(a)(iii) or 3.11(a)(ix), such right of reimbursement
being prior to the rights of Certificateholders to receive any amount in the
Collection Account received in respect of the affected Mortgage Loan or other
Mortgage Loans.
(c) The Servicer shall have the right to purchase from REMIC I
any defaulted Mortgage Loan that is 90 days or more delinquent, which the
Servicer determines in good faith will otherwise become subject to foreclosure
proceedings (evidence of such determination to be delivered in writing to the
Trustee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Servicer and the Trustee
prior to purchase), at a price equal to the Purchase Price. The Purchase Price
for any Mortgage Loan purchased hereunder shall be deposited in the Collection
Account, and the Trustee, upon receipt of written certification from the
Servicer of such deposit, shall release or cause to be released to the Servicer
the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such
instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the
Servicer shall furnish and as shall be necessary to vest in the Servicer title
to any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.
(d) Proceeds received in connection with any Final Recovery
Determination, as well as any recovery resulting from a partial collection of
Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds, in respect of any Mortgage Loan,
will be applied in the following order of priority:
94
first, to reimburse the Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances
and Advances, pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(ii) or (a)(iii); second, to accrued
and unpaid interest on the Mortgage Loan, to the date of the Final Recovery
Determination, or to the Due Date prior to the Distribution Date on which such
amounts are to be distributed if not in connection with a Final Recovery
Determination; and third, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan. If
the amount of the recovery so allocated to interest is less than the full amount
of accrued and unpaid interest due on such Mortgage Loan, the amount of such
recovery will be allocated by the Servicer as follows: first, to unpaid
Servicing Fees; and second, to the balance of the interest then due and owing.
The portion of the recovery so allocated to unpaid Servicing Fees shall be
reimbursed to the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iii). The portion of the
recovery allocated to interest (net of unpaid Servicing Fees) and the portion of
the recovery allocated to principal of the Mortgage Loan shall be applied as
follows: first, to reimburse the Servicer for any related unreimbursed Advances
in accordance with Section 3.11(a)(ii) and any other amounts reimbursable to the
Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11, and second, as part of the amounts to be
transferred to the Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.10(b).
Section 3.17. Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.
Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt
by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full shall be escrowed in a
manner customary for such purposes, the Servicer will notify the Trustee by a
certification in the form of Exhibit E (which certification shall include a
statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in
connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the
Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.10 have been or will be so deposited)
of a Servicing Officer and shall request delivery to it of the Mortgage File.
Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Trustee shall promptly
release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer and the Servicer is authorized
to cause the removal from the registration on the MERS(R) System of any such
Mortgage, if applicable, and to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee
and the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of
satisfaction or cancellation or of partial or full release. No expenses incurred
in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall
be chargeable to the Collection Account or the Distribution Account.
From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose, collection under
any insurance policy relating to the Mortgage Loans, the Trustee shall, upon
request of the Servicer and delivery to the Trustee of a Request for Release in
the form of Exhibit E, release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer, and
the Trustee or the Servicer as attorney-in-fact of the Trustee shall, at the
direction of the Servicer, execute such documents as shall be necessary to the
prosecution of any such proceedings. Such Request for Release shall obligate the
Servicer to return each and every document previously requested from the
Mortgage File to the Trustee when the need therefor by the Servicer no longer
exists, unless the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation
Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Collection
Account or the Mortgage File or such document has been delivered to an attorney,
or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes
of initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure
of the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Servicer
has delivered to the Trustee a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as
to the name and address of the Person to which such Mortgage File or such
document was delivered
95
and the purpose or purposes of such delivery. Upon receipt of a certificate of a
Servicing Officer stating that such Mortgage Loan was liquidated and that all
amounts received or to be received in connection with such liquidation that are
required to be deposited into the Collection Account have been so deposited, or
that such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Property, a copy of the Request for
Release shall be released by the Trustee to the Servicer.
Upon written certification of a Servicing Officer, the Trustee
shall execute and deliver to the Servicer, any court pleadings, requests for
trustee's sale or other documents necessary to the foreclosure or trustee's sale
in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought to obtain
judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or to obtain a
deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the
Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity. Each such
certification shall include a request that such pleadings or documents be
executed by the Trustee and a statement as to the reason such documents or
pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the
Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except
for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or
trustee's sale. So long as no Servicing Termination Event shall have occurred
and be continuing, the Servicer shall have the right to execute any and all such
court pleadings, requests and other documents as attorney-in-fact for, and on
behalf of the Trustee.
Section 3.18. Servicing Compensation.
As compensation for the activities of the Servicer, hereunder,
the Servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee with respect to each
Mortgage Loan payable solely from payments of interest in respect of such
Mortgage Loan, subject to Section 3.24. In addition, the Servicer shall be
entitled to recover unpaid Servicing Fees out of Insurance Proceeds or
Liquidation Proceeds to the extent permitted by Section 3.11(a)(iii) and out of
amounts derived from the operation and sale of an REO Property to the extent
permitted by Section 3.23. Except as set forth in Section 6.04 hereof, the right
to receive the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except
in connection with the transfer of all of the Servicer's responsibilities and
obligations under this Agreement to the extent permitted herein.
Additional servicing compensation in the form of all servicing
related fees including assumption fees, late payment charges, insufficient fund
charges, customary real estate referral fees, extension fees, modification fees
and other miscellaneous fees (other than Prepayment Charges) shall be retained
by the Servicer only to the extent such fees or charges are received by the
Servicer. The Servicer shall also be entitled pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iv) to
withdraw from the Collection Account and pursuant to Section 3.23(b) to withdraw
from any REO Account, as additional servicing compensation, interest or other
income earned on deposits therein, subject to Section 3.12. The Servicer shall
be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing
activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except
as specifically provided herein.
96
Section 3.19. [Reserved].
Section 3.20. Statement as to Compliance.
Not later than March 15th of each calendar year commencing in
2005, the Servicer will deliver to the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer and the
Depositor an Officers' Certificate (upon which the Trustee can conclusively rely
in connection with its obligations under Section 4.06) stating, as to each
signatory thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during
the preceding year and of performance under this Agreement has been made under
such officers' supervision and (ii) to the best of such officer's knowledge,
based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under
this Agreement throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the
fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such
officer and the nature and status thereof. Copies of any such statement shall be
provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder and the Certificate Insurer and
to any Person identified to the Trustee as a prospective transferee of a
Certificate, upon request at the expense of the requesting party, provided such
statement is delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee.
Section 3.21. Independent Public Accountants' Servicing
Report.
Not later than March 15th of each calendar year commencing in
2005, the Servicer, at its expense, shall cause a nationally recognized firm of
independent certified public accountants to furnish to the Servicer a report
stating that (i) it has obtained a letter of representation regarding certain
matters from the management of the Servicer which includes an assertion that the
Servicer has complied with certain minimum residential mortgage loan servicing
standards, identified in the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage
Bankers established by the Mortgage Bankers Association of America, with respect
to the servicing of residential mortgage loans during the most recently
completed fiscal year and (ii) on the basis of an examination conducted by such
firm in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants, such representation is fairly stated in all
material respects, subject to such exceptions and other qualifications that may
be appropriate. Immediately upon receipt of such report, the Servicer shall
furnish a copy of such report to the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer and each
Rating Agency. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any
Certificateholder upon request at the Servicer's expense, provided that such
statement is delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee and the Certificate
Insurer.
Section 3.22. Access to Certain Documentation.
The Servicer shall provide to the Office of Thrift
Supervision, the FDIC, and any other federal or state banking or insurance
regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any Certificate Owner,
access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans required by applicable
laws and regulations. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only
upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the
Servicer designated by it. In addition, access to the documentation regarding
the Mortgage Loans will be provided to any Certificate Owner, the Trustee, the
Certificate Insurer and to any Person identified to the Servicer, as a
prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon reasonable request during normal
business hours at the offices of the Servicer designated by it at the expense of
the Person requesting such access.
97
Section 3.23. Title, Management and Disposition of REO
Property.
(a) The deed or certificate of sale of any REO Property shall
be taken in the name of the Trustee, or its nominee, on behalf of the Trust Fund
and for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer. The
Servicer, on behalf of REMIC I, shall either sell any REO Property by the close
of the third calendar year following the calendar year in which REMIC I acquires
ownership of such REO Property for purposes of Section 860(a)(8) of the Code or
request from the Internal Revenue Service, no later than 60 days before the day
on which the three-year grace period would otherwise expire an extension of the
three-year grace period, unless the Servicer had delivered to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Depositor, to the effect
that the holding by REMIC I of such REO Property subsequent to three years after
its acquisition will not result in the imposition on any Trust REMIC created
hereunder of taxes on "prohibited transactions" thereof, as defined in Section
860F of the Code, or cause any Trust REMIC hereunder to fail to qualify as a
REMIC under Federal law at any time that any Certificates are outstanding. The
Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the
Certificateholders solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in
a manner which does not 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 Trust REMIC created hereunder of any "income from
non-permitted assets" within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code,
or any "net income from foreclosure property" which is subject to taxation under
the REMIC Provisions.
(b) The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected
and received in connection with the operation of any REO Property separate and
apart from its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain
with respect to REO Properties an account held in trust for the Trustee, on
behalf of the Trust Fund and for the benefit of the Certificateholders (the "REO
Account"), which shall be an Eligible Account. The Servicer shall be permitted
to allow the Collection Account to serve as the REO Account, subject to separate
ledgers for each REO Property. The Servicer shall be entitled to retain or
withdraw any interest income paid on funds deposited in the REO Account.
(c) The Servicer shall have full power and authority, subject
only to the specific requirements and prohibitions of this Agreement, to do any
and all things in connection with any REO Property as are consistent with the
manner in which the Servicer manages and operates similar property owned by the
Servicer or any of its Affiliates, all on such terms and for such period as the
Servicer deems to be in the best interests of Certificateholders. In connection
therewith, the Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, on a daily
basis in the REO Account all revenues received by it with respect to an REO
Property and shall withdraw therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation,
management and maintenance of such REO Property including, without limitation:
(i) all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such
REO Property;
(ii) all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of such
REO Property that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon; and
98
(iii) all costs and expenses necessary to maintain such REO
Property.
To the extent that amounts on deposit in the REO Account with
respect to an REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in
clauses (i) through (iii) above with respect to such REO Property, the Servicer
shall advance from its own funds such amount as is necessary for such purposes
if, but only if, the Servicer would make such advances if the Servicer owned the
REO Property and if in the Servicer's judgment, the payment of such amounts will
be recoverable from the rental or sale of the REO Property.
Subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations as
shall at any time be in force, and notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer
shall not:
(i) permit the Trust Fund to enter into, renew or extend any
New Lease with respect to any REO Property, if the New Lease by its
terms will give rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from
Real Property;
(ii) permit any amount to be received or accrued under any New
Lease other than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property;
(iii) authorize or permit any construction on any REO
Property, other than the completion of a building or other improvement
thereon, and then only if more than ten percent of the construction of
such building or other improvement was completed before default on the
related Mortgage Loan became imminent, all within the meaning of
Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or
(iv) allow any Person to Directly Operate any REO Property on
any date more than 90 days after its date of acquisition by the Trust
Fund;
unless, in any such case, the Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel,
provided to the Servicer, the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee, to the effect
that such action will not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as
"foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code at
any time that it is held by REMIC I, in which case the Servicer may take such
actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel and the Servicer has
received written notice from the Certificate Insurer (with a copy to the
Trustee) that the specific action may be taken.
The Servicer may contract with any Independent Contractor for
the operation and management of any REO Property, provided that:
(i) the terms and conditions of any such contract shall not be
inconsistent herewith;
(ii) any such contract shall require, or shall be administered
to require, that the Independent Contractor pay all costs and expenses
incurred in connection with the operation and management of such REO
Property, including those listed above and remit all related revenues
(net of such costs and expenses) to the Servicer as soon as
practicable, but in no event later than thirty days following the
receipt thereof by such Independent Contractor;
99
(iii) none of the provisions of this Section 3.23(c) relating
to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent
Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Servicer of any of its duties
and obligations to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Fund and for the
benefit of the Certificateholders with respect to the operation and
management of any such REO Property; and
(iv) the Servicer shall be obligated with respect thereto to
the same extent as if it alone were performing all duties and
obligations in connection with the operation and management of such REO
Property.
The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement
with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties
and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Servicer by such
Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit
or modify such indemnification. The Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees
owed by it to any such Independent Contractor, irrespective of whether the
Servicer's compensation pursuant to Section 3.18 is sufficient to pay such fees.
(d) In addition to the withdrawals permitted under Section
3.23(c), the Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the REO
Account for any REO Property: (i) to pay itself unpaid Servicing Fees in respect
of the related Mortgage Loan; and (ii) to reimburse itself or any Sub-Servicer
for unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Advances made in respect of such REO
Property or the related Mortgage Loan. On the Servicer Remittance Date, the
Servicer shall withdraw from each REO Account maintained by it and deposit into
the Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.10(d)(ii), for
distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance with Section 4.01,
the income from the related REO Property received during the prior calendar
month, net of any withdrawals made pursuant to Section 3.23(c) or this Section
3.23(d).
(e) Subject to the time constraints set forth in Section
3.23(a), each REO Disposition shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price
and upon such terms and conditions as the Servicer shall deem necessary or
advisable, as shall be normal and usual in its Accepted Servicing Practices.
(f) The proceeds from the REO Disposition, net of any amount
required by law to be remitted to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan
and net of any payment or reimbursement to the Servicer as provided above, shall
be deposited in the Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.10(d)(ii)
on the Servicer Remittance Date in the month following the receipt thereof for
distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance with Section 4.01.
Any REO Disposition shall be for cash only (unless changes in the REMIC
Provisions made subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other
consideration).
(g) The Servicer shall file information returns (and shall
provide a certification of a Servicing Officer to the Trustee that such filings
have been made) with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest received in a
trade or business, reports of foreclosures and abandonments of any Mortgaged
Property and cancellation of indebtedness income with respect to any Mortgaged
Property as required by Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the Code,
100
respectively. Such reports shall be in form and substance sufficient to meet the
reporting requirements imposed by such Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the
Code.
Section 3.24. Obligations of the Servicer in Respect of
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls.
The Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit into the
Distribution Account on or before 5:00 p.m. New York time on the Servicer
Remittance Date from its own funds an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the
aggregate of the Prepayment Interest Shortfalls attributable to prepayments in
full for the related Distribution Date resulting solely from Principal
Prepayments received by the Servicer during the related Prepayment Period and
(ii) 50% of its aggregate Servicing Fee for the most recently ended Prepayment
Period. The Servicer shall not have the right to reimbursement for any amounts
remitted to the Trustee in respect of this Section 3.24. The Servicer shall not
be obligated to pay the amounts set forth in this Section 3.24 with respect to
Relief Act Interest Shortfalls.
Section 3.25. [Reserved].
Section 3.26. Obligations of the Servicer in Respect of
Mortgage Rates and Monthly Payments.
In the event that a shortfall in any collection on or
liability with respect to any Mortgage Loan results from or is attributable to
adjustments to Mortgage Rates, Monthly Payments or Stated Principal Balances
that were made by the Servicer in a manner not consistent with the terms of the
related Mortgage Note and this Agreement, the Servicer, upon discovery or
receipt of notice thereof, immediately shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit
in the Distribution Account from its own funds the amount of any such shortfall
and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor
and any successor Servicer in respect of any such liability. Such indemnities
shall survive the termination or discharge of this Agreement.
Section 3.27. Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account.
(a) No later than the Closing Date, the Trustee shall
establish and maintain with itself, as agent for the Trustee, a separate,
segregated trust account titled, "Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account,
Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee, in trust for the registered
holders of Citigroup Mortgage Loan Trust Inc., Citigroup Mortgage Loan Trust,
Series 2004-RES1, Asset Backed Pass-Through Certificates." The Trustee shall
deposit into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account any payments received by
it (i) under the Cap Contracts and (ii) pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(4)(II)(iv).
(b) On each Distribution Date as to which there is a Net WAC
Rate Carryover Amount payable to the Class A Certificates or the Mezzanine
Certificates, the Trustee has been directed by the Class CE Certificateholders
to, and therefore will, deposit into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account
such Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount, after taking into account amounts received
under the Cap Contracts, rather than distributing such amounts to the Class CE
Certificateholders. On each such Distribution Date, the Trustee shall hold all
such amounts for the benefit of the Holders of the Class A Certificates and the
Mezzanine Certificates, and will
101
distribute such amounts to the Holders of the Class A Certificates and the
Mezzanine Certificates in the amounts and priorities set forth in Section
4.01(a)(4)(II)(iv).
(c) For federal and state income tax purposes, the Class CE
Certificateholders will be deemed to be the owners of the Net WAC Rate Carryover
Reserve Account and all amounts deposited into the Net WAC Rate Carryover
Reserve Account shall be treated as amounts distributed by REMIC II to the
Holders of the Class CE Interest and by REMIC VIII to the Holders of the Class
CE Certificates (other than payments made to the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve
Account from amounts received under the Cap Contracts). Upon the termination of
the Trust Fund, or the payment in full of the Class A Certificates and the
Mezzanine Certificates, all amounts remaining on deposit in the Net WAC Rate
Carryover Reserve Account will be released by the Trust Fund and distributed to
the Class CE Certificateholders or their designees. The Net WAC Rate Carryover
Reserve Account will be part of the Trust Fund but not part of any Trust REMIC
and any payments to the Holders of the Class A Certificates or the Mezzanine
Certificates of Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts will not be payments with respect
to a "regular interest" in a REMIC within the meaning of Code Section
860(G)(a)(1).
(d) By accepting a Class CE Certificate, each Class CE
Certificateholder hereby agrees to direct the Trustee, and the Trustee hereby is
directed to deposit into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account the amounts
described above on each Distribution Date as to which there is any Net WAC Rate
Carryover Amount rather than distributing such amounts to the Class CE
Certificateholders. By accepting a Class CE Certificate, each Class CE
Certificateholder further agrees that such direction is given for good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged by
such acceptance.
(e) All amounts on deposit in the Net WAC Rate Carryover
Reserve Account shall remain uninvested.
(f) For federal tax return and information reporting, the
value of the right of the Class A-1 Certificateholders, the Class A-2
Certificateholders and the Mezzanine Certificateholders to receive payments from
the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account in respect of any Net WAC Rate
Carryover Amount shall be $146,000, $55,598 and $195,902, respectively.
Section 3.28. Advance Facility.
(a) The Servicer is hereby authorized to enter into a
financing or other facility (any such arrangement, an "Advance Facility"), the
documentation for which complies with Section 3.28(e) below, under which (1) the
Servicer assigns or pledges its rights under this Agreement to be reimbursed for
any or all Advances and/or Servicing Advances to (i) a Person, which may be a
special-purpose bankruptcy-remote entity (an "SPV"), (ii) a Person, which may
simultaneously assign or pledge such rights to an SPV or (iii) a lender (a
"Lender"), which, in the case of any Person or SPV of the type described in
either of the preceding clauses (i) or (ii), may directly or through other
assignees and/or pledgees, assign or pledge such rights to a Person, which may
include a trustee acting on behalf of holders of debt instruments (any such
Person or any such Lender, an "Advance Financing Person"), and/or (2) an Advance
Financing Person
102
agrees to fund all the Advances and/or Servicing Advances required to be made by
the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement. No consent of the Trustee,
Certificateholders or any other party shall be required before the Servicer may
enter into an Advance Facility nor shall the Trustee or the Certificateholders
be a third party beneficiary of any obligation of an Advance Financing Person to
the Servicer. Notwithstanding the existence of any Advance Facility under which
an Advance Financing Person agrees to fund Advances and/or Servicing Advances,
(A) the Servicer (i) shall remain obligated pursuant to this Agreement to make
Advances and/or Servicing Advances pursuant to and as required by this Agreement
and (ii) shall not be relieved of such obligations by virtue of such Advance
Facility and (B) neither the Advance Financing Person nor any Servicer's
Assignee (as hereinafter defined) shall have any right to proceed against or
otherwise contact any Mortgagor for the purpose of collecting any payment that
may be due with respect to any related Mortgage Loan or enforcing any covenant
of such Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan documents.
(b) If the Servicer enters into an Advance Facility, the
Servicer and the related Advance Financing Person shall deliver to the Trustee
at the address set forth in Section 11.05 hereof a written notice (an "Advance
Facility Notice"), stating (a) the identity of the Advance Financing Person and
(b) the identity of the Person (the "Servicer's Assignee") that will, subject to
Section 3.28(c) hereof, have the right to make withdrawals from the Collection
Account pursuant to Section 3.11(a) hereof to reimburse previously unreimbursed
Advances and/or Servicing Advances ("Advance Reimbursement Amounts"). Advance
Reimbursement Amounts (i) shall consist solely of amounts in respect of Advances
and/or Servicing Advances for which the Servicer would be permitted to reimburse
itself in accordance with Section 3.11(a) hereof, assuming the Servicer had made
the related Advance(s) and/or Servicing Advance(s) and (ii) shall not consist of
amounts payable to a successor Servicer in accordance with Section 3.11(a)
hereof to the extent permitted under Section 3.28(e) below.
(c) Notwithstanding the existence of an Advance Facility, the
Servicer, on behalf of the Advance Financing Person, shall be entitled to
receive reimbursements of Advances and/or Servicing Advances in accordance with
Section 3.11(a) hereof, which entitlement may be terminated by the Advance
Financing Person pursuant to a written notice to the Trustee in the manner set
forth in Section 11.05 hereof. Upon receipt of such written notice, the Servicer
shall no longer be entitled to receive reimbursement for any Advance
Reimbursement Amounts and the Servicer's Assignee shall immediately have the
right to receive from the Collection Account all Advance Reimbursement Amounts.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, (i) the Servicer
and/or the Servicer's Assignee shall only be entitled to reimbursement of
Advance Reimbursement Amounts hereunder pursuant to Section 3.11(a) of this
Agreement and shall not otherwise be entitled to make withdrawals of, or
receive, Advance Reimbursement Amounts that shall be deposited in the
Distribution Account and (ii) none of the Trustee or the Certificateholders
shall have any right to, or otherwise be entitled to, receive any Advance
Reimbursement Amounts to which the Servicer or Servicer's Assignee, as
applicable, shall be entitled pursuant to Section 3.11 hereof. An Advance
Facility may be terminated by the joint written direction of the Servicer and
the related Advance Financing Person. Written notice of such termination shall
be delivered to the Trustee in the manner set forth in Section 11.05 hereof. The
Trustee shall have no duty or liability with respect to the calculation of any
Advance
103
Reimbursement Amount and shall be entitled to rely without independent
investigation on the Advance Facility Notice and on such Servicer's report of
the amount of Advance Reimbursement Amounts and Advance Reimbursement Amounts
that were included in the remittance from such Servicer to the Trustee pursuant
to Section 4.03. Such Servicer shall maintain and provide to any successor
Servicer a detailed accounting on a loan-by-loan basis as to amounts advanced
by, pledged or assigned to, and reimbursed to any Advance Financing Person. The
successor Servicer shall be entitled to rely on any such information provided by
the predecessor Servicer, and the successor Servicer shall not be liable for any
errors in such information.
(d) [Reserved].
(e) As between a predecessor Servicer and its Advance
Financing Person, on the one hand, and a successor Servicer and its Advance
Financing Person, if any, on the other hand, Advance Reimbursement Amounts on a
loan-by-loan basis with respect to each Mortgage Loan as to which a Advance
and/or Servicing Advance shall have been made and be outstanding shall be
allocated on a "first-in, first out" basis. In the event the Servicer's Assignee
shall have received some or all of an Advance Reimbursement Amount related to
Advances and/or Servicing Advances that were made by a Person other than such
predecessor Servicer or its related Advance Financing Person in error, then such
Servicer's Assignee shall be required to remit any portion of such Advance
Reimbursement Amount to each Person entitled to such portion of such Advance
Reimbursement Amount. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Servicer shall remain entitled to be reimbursed by the Advance Financing Person
for all Advances and/or Servicing Advances funded by the Servicer to the extent
the related Advance Reimbursement Amounts have not been assigned or pledged to
such Advance Financing Person or Servicer's Assignee.
(f) For purposes of any certification of a Servicing Officer
of the Servicer made pursuant to Section 4.03(d), any Nonrecoverable Advance
referred to therein may have been made by the Servicer or any predecessor
Servicer. In making its determination that any Advance or Servicing Advance
theretofore made has become a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Servicer shall apply
the same criteria in making such determination regardless of whether such
Advance or Servicing Advance shall have been made by the Servicer or any
predecessor Servicer
(g) The Trustee shall not, as a result of the existence of any
Advance Facility, have any additional responsibility to track or monitor Advance
Reimbursement Amounts or any Advance Facility, and is not and shall not be
obligated to make any payment with respect to any Advance Reimbursement Amount.
The Servicer hereby indemnifies the Trustee, the Trust Fund and any successor
Servicer, as applicable, from and against any claims, losses, liabilities or
damages resulting from any claim by the related Advancing Person, except, in the
case of the indemnification of the Trustee or the successor Servicer, as
applicable, to the extent that such claim, loss, liability or damage resulted
from or arose out of its own negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct.
Section 3.29. Transfer of Servicing
Prior to the Servicing Transfer Date, the Interim Servicer
shall have complied with each of the servicing transfer requirements in
accordance with the Servicer's commercially
104
reasonable instructions, provided to the Interim Servicer in writing and
sufficiently in advance of the Servicing Transfer Date.

outstanding Certificates in such Class based on their respective Percentage
Interests. Distributions in respect of each Class of Certificates on each
Distribution Date shall be made to the Holders of the respective Class of record
on the related Record Date (except as otherwise provided in Section 4.01(e) or
Section 9.01 respecting the final distribution on such Class), based on the
aggregate Percentage Interest
114
represented by their respective Certificates, and shall be made by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to the account of any such Holder at a bank or
other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Holder shall have
so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the
Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date, or otherwise by check
mailed by first class mail to the address of such Holder appearing in the
Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made
in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at
the office of the Trustee maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.12
or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such
final distribution. Payments to the Certificate Insurer on any Distribution Date
shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account
designated by the Certificate Insurer in Section 4.07(f).
Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate
shall be paid to the Depository, as Holder thereof, and the Depository shall be
responsible for crediting the amount of such distribution to the accounts of its
Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each
Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to
the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating
brokerage firm (a "brokerage firm" or "indirect participating firm") for which
it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds
to the Certificate Owners that it represents. None of the Trustee, the Depositor
or the Servicer shall have any responsibility therefor except as otherwise
provided by this Agreement or applicable law.
(d) The rights of the Certificateholders to receive
distributions in respect of the Certificates, and all interests of the
Certificateholders in such distributions, shall be as set forth in this
Agreement. None of the Holders of any Class of Certificates, the Trustee or the
Servicer shall in any way be responsible or liable to the Holders of any other
Class of Certificates in respect of amounts properly previously distributed on
the Certificates.
(e) Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, whenever the
Trustee expects that the final distribution with respect to any Class of
Certificates will be made on the next Distribution Date, the Trustee shall, no
later than one (1) day before the related Distribution Date (to the extent that
an accurate Remittance Report is received in a timely manner by the Trustee),
mail to the Certificate Insurer and each Holder on such date of such Class of
Certificates a notice to the effect that:
(i) the Trustee expects that the final distribution with
respect to such Class of Certificates will be made on such Distribution
Date but only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at
the office of the Trustee therein specified, and
(ii) no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from and
after the end of the related Interest Accrual Period.
Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of
Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of
such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set
aside and held in trust by the Trustee and credited to the account of the
appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which
notice has been given pursuant to this Section 4.01(e) shall not have been
surrendered for
115
cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the
Trustee shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering
Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to
receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after
the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for
cancellation, the Trustee shall, directly or through an agent, mail a final
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of
their Certificates but shall continue to hold any remaining funds for the
benefit of non-tendering Certificateholders. The costs and expenses of
maintaining the funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders shall
be paid out of the assets held in trust for such Certificateholders. If within
one year after the final notice any such Certificates shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall first, reimburse the Certificate
Insurer for any amounts which were paid by the Certificate Insurer under the
Certificate Insurance Policy (but only if the non-surrendered Certificates are
Insured Certificates) and second, pay to Citigroup Global Markets Inc., in
accordance with its wiring instructions, all such amounts, and all rights of
non-tendering Certificateholders in or to such amounts shall thereupon cease. No
interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held
in trust by the Trustee as a result of such Certificateholder's failure to
surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this
Section 4.01(e). Any such amounts held in trust by the Trustee shall be held in
an Eligible Account and shall be held uninvested.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) in no
event shall the Certificate Principal Balance of a Class A Certificate or a
Mezzanine Certificate be reduced more than once in respect of any particular
amount allocated to such Certificate in respect of Realized Losses pursuant to
Section 4.04 and (ii) in no event shall the Uncertificated Balance of a REMIC
Regular Interest be reduced more than once in respect of any particular amount
both (a) allocated to such REMIC Regular Interest in respect of Realized Losses
pursuant to Section 4.04 and (b) distributed on such REMIC Regular Interest in
reduction of the Uncertificated Balance thereof pursuant to this Section 4.01.

Section 4.03. Remittance Reports; Advances.
(a) On the Business Day following each Determination Date, the
Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer by telecopy
(or by such other means as the Servicer, the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee
may agree from time to time) a Remittance Report with respect to the related
Distribution Date. On the same date, the Servicer shall forward to the Trustee
by overnight mail a computer readable magnetic tape or electronically transmit
(in a format acceptable to the Trustee) on the day thereafter, a data file
containing the information set forth in such Remittance Report with respect to
the related Distribution Date. Such Remittance Report will include (i) the
amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer in respect of the related
Distribution Date, the aggregate amount of Advances outstanding after giving
effect to such Advances, and the aggregate amount of Nonrecoverable Advances in
respect of such Distribution Date and (ii) such other information with respect
to the Mortgage Loans as the Trustee may reasonably require to perform the
calculations necessary to make the distributions contemplated by Section 4.01
and to prepare the statements to Certificateholders contemplated by Section
4.02. The Trustee shall not be responsible to recompute, recalculate or verify
any information provided to it by the Servicer.
(b) The amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer for any
Distribution Date shall equal, subject to Section 4.03(d), (i) the aggregate
amount of Monthly Payments (net of the related Servicing Fee), due during the
related Collection Period in respect of the Mortgage Loans, which Monthly
Payments were delinquent on a contractual basis as of the close of business on
the related Determination Date and (ii) with respect to each REO Property, which
REO Property was acquired during or prior to the related Prepayment Period and
as to which such REO Property an REO Disposition did not occur during the
related Prepayment Period, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of only the
interest portion of the Monthly Payments (net of the related Servicing Fee) that
would have been due on the related Due Date in respect of the related Mortgage
Loans, over the net income from such REO Property deposited in the Collection
Account pursuant to Section 3.23 for distribution on such Distribution Date;
provided, however, the Servicer shall not be obligated to make an Advance of
delinquent principal on any second lien Mortgage Loan. For purposes of the
preceding sentence, the Monthly Payment on each Balloon Mortgage Loan with a
delinquent Balloon Payment is equal to the assumed monthly payment that would
have been due on the related Due Date based on the original principal
amortization schedule for such Balloon Mortgage Loan.
By 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Servicer Remittance Date,
the Servicer shall remit in immediately available funds to the Trustee for
deposit in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the aggregate amount of
Advances, if any, to be made in respect of the Mortgage Loans for the related
Distribution Date either (i) from its own funds or (ii) from the Collection
Account, to the extent of funds held therein for future distribution (in which
case it will cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of the
Collection Account that amounts held for future distribution have been, as
permitted by this Section 4.03, used by the Servicer in discharge of any such
Advance) or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the
total amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer with respect to the Mortgage
Loans. Any amounts held for future distribution and so used shall be
appropriately reflected in the Servicer's records and replaced by the Servicer
by deposit in the Collection Account on or before any future Servicer Remittance
Date to the extent that the Available Distribution Amount for the
120
related Distribution Date (determined without regard to Advances to be made on
the Servicer Remittance Date) shall be less than the total amount that would be
distributed to the Classes of Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01 on
such Distribution Date if such amounts held for future distributions had not
been so used to reimburse the Servicer for Advances previously made. The Trustee
will provide notice to the Servicer and the Certificate Insurer by telecopy by
the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Distribution Date in the
event that the amount remitted by the Servicer to the Trustee on such date is
less than the Advances required to be made by the Servicer for the related
Distribution Date.
In addition to the foregoing, the Servicer shall have the
right to reimburse itself for any Advances previously made by it from the
Collection Account, to the extent of funds held therein for future distribution.
Any amounts held for future distribution and so used shall be appropriately
reflected in the Servicer's records and replaced by the Servicer by deposit in
the Collection Account on or before any future Servicer Remittance Date to the
extent that the Available Distribution Amount for the related Distribution Date
(determined without regard to Advances to be made on the Servicer Remittance
Date) shall be less than the total amount that would be distributed to the
Classes of Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01 on such Distribution Date
if such amounts held for future distributions had not been so used to reimburse
the Servicer for Advances previously made.
(c) The obligation of the Servicer to make such Advances is
mandatory, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but subject to
(d) below, and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan or REO Property, shall
continue until a Final Recovery Determination in connection therewith or the
removal thereof from the Trust Fund pursuant to any applicable provision of this
Agreement, except as otherwise provided in this Section.
(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no
Advance or Servicing Advance shall be required to be made hereunder by the
Servicer if such Advance or Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a
Nonrecoverable Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, respectively. The
determination by the Servicer that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or a
Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance or that any proposed Advance or Servicing
Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance or Nonrecoverable
Servicing Advance, respectively, shall be evidenced by a certification of a
Servicing Officer delivered to the Depositor, the Certificate Insurer and the
Trustee.
Section 4.04. Allocation of Realized Losses.
(a) Prior to each Determination Date, the Servicer shall
determine as to each Mortgage Loan and REO Property: (i) the total amount of
Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with any Final Recovery
Determinations made during the related Prepayment Period; (ii) whether and the
extent to which such Realized Losses constituted Bankruptcy Losses; and (iii)
the respective portions of such Realized Losses allocable to interest and
allocable to principal. Prior to each Determination Date, the Servicer shall
also determine as to each Mortgage Loan: (i) the total amount of Realized
Losses, if any, incurred in connection with any Deficient Valuations made during
the related Prepayment Period; and (ii) the total amount of Realized Losses, if
any, incurred in connection with Debt Service Reductions in respect of Monthly
Payments due during the related Due Period. The information described in the two
121
preceding sentences that is to be supplied by the Servicer shall be evidenced by
an Officers' Certificate delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer by
the Servicer prior to the Determination Date immediately following the end of
(i) in the case of Bankruptcy Losses allocable to interest, the Due Period
during which any such Realized Loss was incurred, and (ii) in the case of all
other Realized Losses, the Prepayment Period during which any such Realized Loss
was incurred.
(b) All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be
allocated by the Trustee on each Distribution Date as follows: first, to the
Accrued Certificate Interest for the Class CE Certificates for the related
Interest Accrual Period; second, to the Class CE Interest, until the Certificate
Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; third, to the Class M-12
Interest until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to
zero; fourth, to the Class M-11 Interest, until the Certificate Principal
Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; fifth, to the Class M-10 Interest,
until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; sixth,
to the Class M-9 Interest, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has
been reduced to zero; seventh, to the Class M-8 Interest, until the Certificate
Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; eighth, to the Class M-7
Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced
to zero; ninth, to the Class M-6 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal
Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; tenth, to the Class M-5 Certificates,
until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;
eleventh, to the Class M-4 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance
thereof has been reduced to zero; twelfth, to the Class M-3 Certificates, until
the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; thirteenth,
to the Class M-2 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof
has been reduced to zero; and fourteenth, to the Class M-1 Certificates, until
the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero.
All Realized Losses to be allocated to the Certificate
Principal Balances of all Classes on any Distribution Date shall be so allocated
after the actual distributions to be made on such date as provided above. All
references above to the Certificate Principal Balance of any Class of
Certificates shall be to the Certificate Principal Balance of such Class
immediately prior to the relevant Distribution Date, before reduction thereof by
any Realized Losses, in each case to be allocated to such Class of Certificates,
on such Distribution Date.
Any allocation of Realized Losses to a Mezzanine Certificate
on any Distribution Date shall be made by reducing the Certificate Principal
Balance thereof by the amount so allocated and any allocation of Realized Losses
to a Class CE Interest shall be made by reducing the amount otherwise payable in
respect thereof pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(4)(xiv). No allocations of any
Realized Losses shall be made to the Certificate Principal Balances of the Class
A Certificates or the Class P Interest.
As used herein, an allocation of a Realized Loss on a "pro
rata basis" among two or more specified Classes of Certificates means an
allocation on a pro rata basis, among the various Classes so specified, to each
such Class of Certificates on the basis of their then outstanding Certificate
Principal Balances prior to giving effect to distributions to be made on such
Distribution Date. All Realized Losses and all other losses allocated to a Class
of Certificates hereunder will be allocated among the Certificates of such Class
in proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced thereby.
122
(c) (i) The REMIC I Marker Allocation Percentage of all
Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated by the Trustee on each
Distribution Date to the following REMIC I Regular Interests in the specified
percentages, as follows: first, to Uncertificated Interest payable to the REMIC
I Regular Interest I-LTAA and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ up to an aggregate
amount equal to the REMIC I Interest Loss Allocation Amount, 98% and 2%,

Interest I-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance
of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM5 has been reduced to zero; eleventh, to the

Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM1 has been reduced to zero.
(ii) The REMIC I Sub WAC Allocation Percentage of all Realized Losses
shall be applied after all distributions have been made on each Distribution
Date first, so as to keep the
123
Uncertificated Balance of each REMIC I Regular Interest ending with the
designation "GRP" equal to 0.01% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of
the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group; second, to each REMIC I Regular
Interest ending with the designation "SUB," so that the Uncertificated Balance
of each such REMIC I Regular Interest is equal to 0.01% of the excess of (x) the
aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan
Group over (y) the current Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A
Certificate in the related Loan Group (except that if any such excess is a
larger number than in the preceding distribution period, the least amount of
Realized Losses shall be applied to such REMIC I Regular Interests such that the
REMIC I Subordinated Balance Ratio is maintained); and third, any remaining
Realized Losses shall be allocated to REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTXX.
Section 4.05. Compliance with Withholding Requirements
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall comply with all federal withholding requirements respecting
payments to Certificateholders of interest or original issue discount that the
Trustee reasonably believes are applicable under the Code. The consent of
Certificateholders shall not be required for such withholding. In the event the
Trustee does withhold any amount from interest or original issue discount
payments or advances thereof to any Certificateholder pursuant to federal
withholding requirements, the Trustee shall indicate the amount withheld to such
Certificateholders.
Section 4.06. Exchange Commission; Additional Information.
(a) The Trustee, the Servicer and the Interim Servicer shall reasonably
cooperate with the Depositor in connection with satisfying the reporting
requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"). The Trustee shall prepare on behalf of the Trust Fund any Forms
8-K and 10-K customary for similar securities as required by the Exchange Act
and the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
thereunder, and the Depositor shall sign (or shall cause another entity
acceptable to the Securities and Exchange Commission to sign) and the Trustee
shall file (via the Securities and Exchange Commission's Electronic Data
Gathering and Retrieval System) such forms on behalf of the Depositor (or such
other entity). The Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee a limited power of
attorney to execute each Form 8-K and file such Forms 8-K and 10-K on behalf of
the Depositor. Such power of attorney shall continue until the earlier of (i)
receipt by the Trustee from the Depositor of written termination of such power
of attorney and (ii) the termination of the Trust Fund. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, the Depositor, and not the Trustee, shall be responsible
for executing each Form 10-K filed on behalf of the Trust.
(b) Each Form 8-K shall be filed by the Trustee within 15 days
after each Distribution Date, with a copy of the statement to the
Certificateholders for such Distribution Date as an exhibit thereto. Prior to
March 30th of each year (or such earlier date as may be required by the Exchange
Act and the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission),
the Trustee shall file a Form 10-K, in substance as required by applicable law
or applicable Security and Exchange Commission staff's interpretations. Such
Form 10-K shall include as exhibits the Servicer's and the Interim Servicer's
annual statement of compliance described under Section 3.20 and the accountant's
report described under Section 3.21, in each case to the extent they have been
timely delivered to the Trustee. If they are not so timely

delivered, the Trustee shall file an amended Form 10-K including such documents
as exhibits reasonably promptly after they are delivered to the Trustee. The
Trustee shall have no liability with respect to any failure to properly prepare
or file such periodic reports resulting from or relating to the Trustee's
inability or failure to obtain any information not resulting from its own
negligence or willful misconduct. The Form 10-K shall also include a
certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L-1 (the "Certification"),
which shall be signed by the senior officer of the Depositor in charge of
securitization.
(c) In addition, the Trustee shall sign a certification (in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit L-2) for the benefit of the Depositor and
its officers, directors and Affiliates regarding certain aspects of the
Certification (the "Trustee Certification") (provided, however, that the Trustee
shall not undertake an analysis of the accountant's report attached as an
exhibit to the Form 10-K), and each of the Servicer and the Interim Servicer
shall sign a certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L-3 and
Exhibit L-4, respectively) for the benefit of the Depositor, the Trustee and
their officers, directors and Affiliates regarding certain aspects of items of
the Certification (the "Servicer Certification"). Each Servicer Certification
shall be delivered to the Depositor by no later than March 18th of each year (or
if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), the
Trustee's certification shall be delivered to the Depositor by no later than
March 19th of each year and the Depositor shall deliver the Certification to the
Trustee for filing no later than March 20th of each year (or if such day is not
a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day).
In addition, (i) the Trustee shall indemnify and hold harmless
the Depositor and its officers, directors and Affiliates from and against any
actual losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary
legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out
of or based upon (a) the failure of the Trustee to timely deliver the Trustee
Certification or (b) any material misstatement in the Trustee Certification and
(ii) each of the Servicer and the Interim Servicer shall indemnify and hold
harmless the Depositor, the Trustee and their respective officers, directors and
Affiliates from and against any actual losses, damages, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments
and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon (a) the failure of the
Servicer or the Interim Servicer, as applicable, to timely deliver the Servicer
Certification or (b) any material misstatement in the Servicer Certification and
(iii) the Depositor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee, the Servicer
and the Interim Servicer and its officers, directors and Affiliates from and
against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and
necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses
arising out of or based upon a breach of the Depositor's obligations under this
Section 4.06 or the Depositor's negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in
connection therewith. If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable
or insufficient to hold harmless the Depositor, the Trustee or the Servicer or
the Interim Servicer, as applicable, then the Depositor (in connection with a
breach of its obligations under this Section 4.06 or its negligence, bad faith
or willful misconduct in connection therewith) or the Trustee, the Servicer or
the Interim Servicer (in connection with a breach of its respective obligations
under this Section 4.06(c)), agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid
or payable by the other party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities of the other party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect
the relative fault and the relative benefit of the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Servicer and the Interim Servicer.
125
(d) Upon any filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, the Trustee shall promptly deliver to the Depositor and the
Certificate Insurer a copy of any executed report, statement or information.
(e) Prior to January 30 of the first year in which the Trustee
is able to do so under applicable law, the Trustee shall file a Form 15
Suspension Notification with respect to the Trust Fund.
To the extent that, following the Closing Date, the Depositor
certifies that reports and certifications differing from those required under
this Section 4.06 comply with the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act,
the Trustee, the Servicer and the Interim Servicer hereby agree that they will
reasonably cooperate to amend the provisions of this Section 4.06 in order to
comply with such amended reporting requirements and such amendment of this
Section 4.06. Any such amendment may result in the reduction of the reports
filed by the Depositor under the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into any amendment pursuant to this
Section that adversely affects its obligations and immunities under this
Agreement.
Section 4.07. The Certificate Insurance Policy.
(a) The Trustee shall establish a separate non-interest
bearing trust account which shall be an Eligible Account for the benefit of
Holders of the Class A-1 Certificates and the Certificate Insurer referred to
herein as the "Policy Payment Account" over which the Trustee shall have
exclusive control and sole right of withdrawal. The Trustee shall deposit upon
receipt any amount paid under the Certificate Insurance Policy in the Policy
Payment Account and distribute such amount only for purposes of payment to the
Insured Certificates of the Policy Payment for which a claim was made and such
amount may not be applied to satisfy any costs, expenses or liabilities of the
Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust Fund or to pay any other Class of
Certificates. Amounts paid under the Certificate Insurance Policy, to the extent
needed to pay any Class A-1 Certificate Deficiency Amount, shall be transferred
to the Distribution Account on the related Distribution Date, and the portion
thereof representing the Class A-1 Certificate Deficiency Amount shall be
disbursed by the Trustee to the Class A-1 Certificateholders, in each case as if
it were a distribution to the Holders of such Certificates pursuant to Section
4.01. It shall not be necessary for such payments to be made by checks or wire
transfers separate from the checks or wire transfers used to pay other
distributions to the Class A-1 Certificateholders, as applicable, with other
funds available to make such payment. However, the amount of any payment of
principal or of interest on the Insured Certificates to be paid from funds
transferred from the Policy Payment Account shall be noted as provided in
paragraph (d) below and in the statement to be furnished to Holders of such
Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 4.02. Funds held in the Policy Payment
Account shall not be invested. Any funds remaining in the Policy Payment Account
on the first Business Day following a Distribution Date shall be returned to the
Certificate Insurer pursuant to the written instructions of the Certificate
Insurer by the end of such Business Day.
(b) If the Trustee has determined that a Class A-1 Certificate
Deficiency Amount is required to be paid under the Certificate Insurance Policy
with respect to such Distribution Date, it shall deliver a Notice of Claim (in
the form attached as Exhibit A to the
126
Certificate Insurance Policy) to the Certificate Insurer no later than noon, New
York, New York time on the second Business Day preceding such Distribution Date
and shall provide a copy thereof to the Servicer at or prior to the time such
Notice of Claim is received by the Certificate Insurer. The Notice of Claim
shall constitute a claim therefor pursuant to the Certificate Insurance Policy.
(c) If the Trustee receives a certified copy of an order of
the appropriate court (an "Order") that any prior distribution made on the
Insured Certificates constitutes an Avoided Payment, the Trustee shall so notify
the Certificate Insurer, shall comply with the provisions of the Certificate
Insurance Policy to obtain payment by the Certificate Insurer of such Avoided
Payment and shall, at the time it provides notice to the Certificate Insurer,
notify each holder of the affected Insured Certificates by mail that (i) subject
to the terms of the Certificate Insurance Policy, the Certificate Insurer will
disburse the Avoided Payment directly to the receiver, conservator,
debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy named in the Order on the fourth
Business Day following such Certificateholder's making timely delivery to the
Trustee of (a) a certificate of such Certificateholder that such Order has been
entered and is not subject to any stay, (b) an opinion of counsel satisfactory
to the Certificate Insurer that such Order is final and is not subject to appeal
and (c) an assignment duly executed and delivered by such Certificateholder, in
such from as is reasonably required by the Certificate Insurer and provided to
such Certificateholder by the Certificate Insurer, irrevocably assigning to the
Certificate Insurer all rights and claims of such Certificateholder relating to
or arising under the affected Insured Certificates against the debtor that made
a payment of such Avoided Payment, or otherwise with respect to such payment,
provided that if such documents are received after 10:00 a.m., New York time, on
such Business Day, they will be deemed to be received on the following Business
Day, and (ii) if any such Avoided Payment is recovered from such
Certificateholder pursuant to such Order, such Certificateholder will be
entitled to payment pursuant to the Certificate Insurance Policy. A copy of the
Certificate Insurance Policy shall be made available to each affected
Certificateholder through the Trustee, and the Trustee shall furnish to the
Certificate Insurer or its fiscal agent, if any, a copy of its records
evidencing the payments that have been made by the Trustee and subsequently
recovered from Certificateholders and the dates on which such payments were
made.
(d) The Trustee shall keep a complete and accurate record of
the amount of interest and principal paid in respect of any Insured Certificates
from moneys received under the Certificate Insurance Policy. The Certificate
Insurer shall have the right to inspect such records at reasonable times during
normal business hours upon two Business Day's prior notice to the Trustee.
(e) The Holders of the Insured Certificates are not entitled
to institute proceedings directly against the Certificate Insurer. Each Holder
of the Insured Certificates, by its purchase of Insured Certificates hereby
agrees that the Certificate Insurer may at any time during the continuation of
any proceeding relating to an Avoided Payment, direct all matters relating to
such Avoided Payment on their behalf, including, without limitation, the
direction of any appeal of any order relating to such preference claim and the
posting of any surety, supersedeas or performance bond pending any such appeal.
127
(f) Any payments to the Certificate Insurer shall be made by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to the following Federal Reserve
Account (unless and until the Certificate Insurer notifies the Trustee of a
change in such account information in writing):
Fleet Bank, N.A.
000 Xxxx Xxxxxx
Xxxxxxxx, XX 00000-0000
ABA Number: 000000000
For the Account of: XL Capital Assurance Inc.
0000 Xxxxxx xx xxx Xxxxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx
Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000-0000
Account #: 000-000-0000
Reference: Policy Number CA01269A/CMLTI 2004-RES1
(g) The Trustee shall, upon retirement of the Insured
Certificates, furnish to the Certificate Insurer a notice of such retirement,
and, after retirement of the Insured Certificates and the expiration of the term
of the Certificate Insurance Policy, surrender the Certificate Insurance Policy
to the Certificate Insurer for cancellation.
(h) The Trustee shall hold the Certificate Insurance Policy in
trust as agent for the Holders of the Class A Certificates for the purpose of
making claims thereon and distributing the proceeds thereof. Neither the
Certificate Insurance Policy nor the amounts paid on the Certificate Insurance
Policy shall constitute part of the Trust Fund created by this Agreement. Each
Holder of Insured Certificates, by accepting its Insured Certificates, appoints
the Trustee as attorney-in-fact for the purpose of making claims on the
Certificate Insurance Policy.
Section 4.08. Effect of Payments by the Certificate Insurer;
Subrogation.
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any payment
with respect to principal of or interest on the Insured Certificates which is
made with moneys received pursuant to the terms of the Certificate Insurance
Policy shall not be considered payment of the Insured Certificates from the
Trust Fund. The Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee acknowledge, and each
Holder by its acceptance of an Insured Certificate agrees, that without the need
for any further action on the part of the Certificate Insurer, the Depositor,
the Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar (a) to the extent the
Certificate Insurer makes payments, directly or indirectly, on account of
principal of or interest on the Insured Certificates to the Holders of such
Class of Certificates, the Certificate Insurer shall be fully subrogated to, and
each such Certificateholder, the Servicer and the Trustee hereby delegate and
assign to the Certificate Insurer, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the
rights of such Holders to receive such principal and interest (in the manner set
forth in the Insurance Agreement) from the Trust Fund, and (b) the Certificate
Insurer shall be paid such amounts from the sources and in the manner provided
herein for the payment of such amounts and as provided in this Agreement until
full reimbursement of all Policy Payments (together with interest thereon at the
Late Payment Rate from the date paid by the Certificate Insurer until the date
of reimbursement thereof). The Trustee and the Servicer shall cooperate in all
respects with any reasonable request by the Certificate Insurer for action to
preserve or enforce the Certificate Insurer's rights or interests
128
under this Agreement without limiting the rights or affecting the interests of
the Holders of the Insured Certificates as otherwise set forth herein.
129
ARTICLE V
THE CERTIFICATES
Section 5.01. The Certificates.
(a) The Certificates in the aggregate will represent the
entire beneficial ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans and all other assets
included in REMIC I.
The Certificates will be substantially in the forms annexed
hereto as Exhibits A-1 through A-18. The Certificates of each Class will be
issuable in registered form only, in denominations of authorized Percentage
Interests as described in the definition thereof. Each Certificate will share
ratably in all rights of the related Class.
Upon original issue, the Certificates shall be executed,
authenticated and delivered by the Trustee to or upon the written order of the
Depositor. The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature
on behalf of the Trustee by an authorized signatory. Certificates bearing the
manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper
officers of the Trustee shall bind the Trustee notwithstanding that such
individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the
authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at
the date of such Certificates. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit
under this Agreement or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such
Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided
herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate of
authentication 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.
(b) The Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates
shall initially be issued as one or more Certificates held by the Book-Entry
Custodian or, if appointed to hold such Certificates as provided below, the
Depository and registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and,
except as provided below, registration of such Certificates may not be
transferred by the Trustee except to another Depository that agrees to hold such
Certificates for the respective Certificate Owners with Ownership Interests
therein. The Certificate Owners shall hold their respective Ownership Interests
in and to such Certificates through the book-entry facilities of the Depository
and, except as provided below, shall not be entitled to definitive, fully
registered Certificates ("Definitive Certificates") in respect of such Ownership
Interests. All transfers by Certificate Owners of their respective Ownership
Interests in the Book-Entry Certificates shall be made in accordance with the
procedures established by the Depository Participant or brokerage firm
representing such Certificate Owner. Each Depository Participant shall only
transfer the Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate
Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in
accordance with the Depository's normal procedures. The Trustee is hereby
initially appointed as the Book-Entry Custodian and hereby agrees to act as such
in accordance herewith and in accordance with the agreement that it has with the
Depository authorizing it to act as such. The Book-Entry Custodian may, and, if
it is no longer qualified to act as such, the Book-Entry Custodian shall,
appoint, by a written instrument delivered to the Depositor, the Servicer, the
Trustee and, if the Trustee is not the Book-Entry Custodian, the Trustee, any
other transfer agent (including the Depository or any
130
successor Depository) to act as Book-Entry Custodian under such conditions as
the predecessor Book-Entry Custodian and the Depository or any successor
Depository may prescribe, provided that the predecessor Book-Entry Custodian
shall not be relieved of any of its duties or responsibilities by reason of any
such appointment of other than the Depository. If the Trustee resigns or is
removed in accordance with the terms hereof, the successor Trustee or, if it so
elects, the Depository shall immediately succeed to its predecessor's duties as
Book-Entry Custodian. The Depositor shall have the right to inspect, and to
obtain copies of, any Certificates held as Book-Entry Certificates by the
Book-Entry Custodian.
The Trustee, the Servicer and the Depositor may for all
purposes (including the making of payments due on the Book-Entry Certificates)
deal with the Depository as the authorized representative of the Certificate
Owners with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates for the purposes of
exercising the rights of Certificateholders hereunder. The rights of Certificate
Owners with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates shall be limited to those
established by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the
Depository Participants and brokerage firms representing such Certificate
Owners. Multiple requests and directions from, and votes of, the Depository as
Holder of the Book-Entry Certificates with respect to any particular matter
shall not be deemed inconsistent if they are made with respect to different
Certificate Owners. The Trustee may establish a reasonable record date in
connection with solicitations of consents from or voting by Certificateholders
and shall give notice to the Depository of such record date.
If (i)(A) the Depositor advises the Trustee in writing that
the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its
responsibilities as Depository, and (B) the Depositor is unable to locate a
qualified successor, or (ii) after the occurrence of a Servicer Event of
Default, Certificate Owners representing in the aggregate not less than 51% of
the Ownership Interests of the Book-Entry Certificates advise the Trustee
through the Depository, in writing, that the continuation of a book-entry system
through the Depository is no longer in the best interests of the Certificate
Owners, the Trustee shall notify all Certificate Owners, through the Depository,
of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive
Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the
Trustee of the Book-Entry Certificates by the Book-Entry Custodian or the
Depository, as applicable, accompanied by registration instructions from the
Depository for registration of transfer, the Trustee shall cause the Definitive
Certificates to be issued. Such Definitive Certificates will be issued in
minimum denominations of $25,000, except that any beneficial ownership that was
represented by a Book-Entry Certificate in an amount less than $25,000
immediately prior to the issuance of a Definitive Certificate shall be issued in
a minimum denomination equal to the amount represented by such Book-Entry
Certificate. None of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee shall be liable
for any delay in the 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 Depository shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed
by the Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such Definitive
Certificates, and the Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive
Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.
131
Section 5.02. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of
Certificates.
(a) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at one of the offices
or agencies to be appointed by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of
Section 8.11, a Certificate Register for the Certificates in which, subject to
such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for
the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates
as herein provided.
(b) No transfer of any Class CE Certificate, Class P
Certificate or Residual Certificate (the "Private Certificates") shall be made
unless that transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and effective
registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made
in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. In
the event that such a transfer of a Private Certificate is to be made without
registration or qualification (other than in connection with (i) the initial
transfer of any such Certificate by the Depositor to an Affiliate of the
Depositor (such Affiliate status being certified to the Trustee by the
Depositor), (ii) the transfer of any such Certificate to the issuer under the
Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture or (iii) a transfer of
any such Certificate from the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture
trustee under the Indenture to the Depositor or any such identified Affiliate of
the Depositor), the Trustee shall require receipt of: (i) if such transfer is
purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written
certifications from the Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer and
from such Certificateholder's prospective transferee, substantially in the forms
attached hereto as Exhibit F-1; and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of
Counsel satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made without such
registration (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund
or of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Servicer in its capacity as such or any
Sub-Servicer), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the
Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer and/or such
Certificateholder's prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is
based, if any. None of the Depositor or the Trustee is obligated to register or
qualify any such Certificates under the 1933 Act or any other securities laws or
to take any action not otherwise required under this Agreement to permit the
transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification. Any
Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer of any such Certificate shall,
and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor and the Servicer
against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not
made in accordance with such federal and state laws.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no certification or Opinion of
Counsel described in this Section 5.02(b) will be required in connection with
the transfer, on the Closing Date, of any Class R Certificate or Class R-X
Certificate by the Depositor to an "accredited investor" within the meaning of
Rule 501(d) of the 1933 Act.
(c) No transfer of a Private Certificate or any interest
therein (other than in connection with (i) the initial transfer of any such
Certificate by the Depositor to an Affiliate of the Depositor (such Affiliate
status being certified to the Trustee by the Depositor), (ii) the transfer of
any such Certificate to the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee
under the Indenture or (ii) a transfer of any such Certificate from the issuer
under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture to the
Depositor or any such identified Affiliate of the
132
Depositor in which case such transferee shall be deemed to have represented that
it is not purchasing with Plan Assets (as defined below)) shall be made to any
Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly
or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person acquiring such
Certificates with "Plan Assets" of a Plan within the meaning of the Department
of Labor regulation promulgated at 29 C. F. R. ss. 2510.3-101 ("Plan Assets")
unless the Trustee is provided with an Opinion of Counsel on which the
Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer and the Servicer may rely, to
the effect that the purchase of such Certificates is permissible under
applicable law, will not constitute or result in any non-exempt prohibited
transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer or the Trust Fund
to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA
or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement,
which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Servicer,
the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer or the Trust Fund. Any prospective
Transferee of such Certificates not providing the above Opinion of Counsel must
provide a certification in the form of Exhibit G to this Agreement (or other
form acceptable to the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Insurer and the
Servicer), which the Trustee may rely upon without further inquiry or
investigation. Neither an Opinion of Counsel nor any certification will be
required in connection with the initial transfer of any such Certificate by the
Depositor to an Affiliate of the Depositor (in which case, the Depositor or any
Affiliate thereof shall have deemed to have represented that such Affiliate is
not a Plan or a Person investing Plan Assets) and the Trustee shall be entitled
to conclusively rely upon a representation (which, upon the request of the
Trustee, shall be a written representation) from the Depositor of the status of
such transferee as an affiliate of the Depositor.
Each beneficial owner of a Mezzanine Certificates or any
interest therein shall be deemed to have represented, by virtue of its
acquisition or holding of that certificate or interest therein, that either (i)
it is not a Plan investor or (ii) (1) it is an insurance company, (2) the source
of funds used to acquire or hold the certificate or interest therein is an
"insurance company general account," as such term is defined in PTCE 95-60, and
(3) the conditions in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied.
If any Private Certificate or Mezzanine Certificate or any
interest therein is acquired or held in violation of the provisions of the two
preceding paragraphs, the next preceding permitted beneficial owner will be
treated as the beneficial owner of that Certificate retroactive to the date of
transfer to the purported beneficial owner. Any purported beneficial owner whose
acquisition or holding of any such Certificate or interest therein was effected
in violation of the provisions of the two preceding paragraphs shall indemnify
and hold harmless the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate
Insurer and the Trust Fund from and against any and all liabilities, claims,
costs or expenses incurred by those parties as a result of that acquisition or
holding.
(d) (i) Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or
acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the
following provisions and to have irrevocably authorized the Trustee or its
designee under clause (iii)(A) below to deliver payments to a Person other than
such Person and to negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause
(iii)(B) below and to execute all instruments of Transfer and to do all other
things necessary in connection with any
133
such sale. The rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:
(A) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be a Permitted
Transferee and shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change
or impending change in its status as a Permitted Transferee.
(B) In connection with any proposed Transfer of any
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, the Trustee
shall require delivery to it, and shall not register the
Transfer of any Residual Certificate until its receipt of, an
affidavit and agreement (a "Transfer Affidavit and Agreement,"
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-2) from the proposed
Transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee,
representing and warranting, among other things, that such
Transferee is a Permitted Transferee, that it is not acquiring
its Ownership Interest in the Residual Certificate that is the
subject of the proposed Transfer as a nominee, trustee or
agent for any Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, that
for so long as it retains its Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a Permitted
Transferee, and that it has reviewed the provisions of this
Section 5.02(d) and agrees to be bound by them.
(C) Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transfer
Affidavit and Agreement by a proposed Transferee under clause
(B) above, if a Responsible Officer of the Trustee who is
assigned to this transaction has actual knowledge that the
proposed Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no Transfer
of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to such
proposed Transferee shall be effected.
(D) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate shall agree (x) to require
a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement in the form attached hereto
as Exhibit F-2 from any other Person to whom such Person
attempts to transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate and (y) not to transfer its Ownership Interest
unless it provides a Transferor Affidavit (in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit F-2) to the Trustee stating that,
among other things, it has no actual knowledge that such other
Person is not a Permitted Transferee.
(E) Each Person holding or acquiring an Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate, by purchasing an Ownership
Interest in such Certificate, agrees to give the Trustee
written notice that it is a "pass-through interest holder"
within the meaning of temporary Treasury regulation Section
1.67-3T(a)(2)(i)(A) immediately upon acquiring an Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate, if it is, or is holding an
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate on behalf of, a
"pass-through interest holder."
(ii) The Trustee will register the Transfer of any Residual
Certificate only if it shall have received the Transfer Affidavit and
Agreement and all of such other documents as shall have been reasonably
required by the Trustee as a condition to such
134
registration. In addition, no Transfer of a Residual Certificate shall
be made unless the Trustee shall have received a representation letter
from the Transferee of such Certificate to the effect that such
Transferee is a Permitted Transferee.
(iii) (A) If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of
a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section
5.02(d), then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be
restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights as holder
thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such Transfer of
such Residual Certificate. 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 5.02(d) or for making any
payments due on such Certificate to the holder thereof or for taking
any other action with respect to such holder under the provisions of
this Agreement.
(B) If any purported Transferee shall become a holder
of a Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in
this Section 5.02(d) and to the extent that the retroactive
restoration of the rights of the holder of such Residual
Certificate as described in clause (iii)(A) above shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the Trustee shall have
the right, but not the obligation, without notice to the
holder or any prior holder of such Residual Certificate, to
sell such Residual Certificate to a purchaser selected by the
Trustee on such terms as the Trustee may choose. Such
purported Transferee shall promptly endorse and deliver each
Residual Certificate in accordance with the instructions of
the Trustee. Such purchaser may be the Trustee itself or any
Affiliate of the Trustee. The proceeds of such sale, net of
the commissions (which may include commissions payable to the
Trustee or its Affiliates), expenses and taxes due, if any,
will be remitted by the Trustee to such purported Transferee.
The terms and conditions of any sale under this clause
(iii)(B) shall be determined in the sole discretion of the
Trustee, and the Trustee shall not be liable to any Person
having an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate as a
result of its exercise of such discretion.
(iv) The Trustee shall make available to the Internal Revenue
Service and those Persons specified by the REMIC Provisions all
information necessary to compute any tax imposed (A) as a result of the
Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any
Person who is a Disqualified Organization, including the information
described in Treasury regulations sections 1.860D-1(b)(5) and
1.860E-2(a)(5) with respect to the "excess inclusions" of such Residual
Certificate and (B) as a result of any regulated investment company,
real estate investment trust, common trust fund, partnership, trust,
estate or organization described in Section 1381 of the Code that holds
an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate having as among its
record holders at any time any Person which is a Disqualified
Organization. Reasonable compensation for providing such information
may be accepted by the Trustee.
(v) The provisions of this Section 5.02(d) set forth prior to
this subsection (v) may be modified, added to or eliminated, provided
that there shall have been delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate
Insurer at the expense of the party seeking to modify, add to or
eliminate any such provision the following:
135
(A) written notification from each Rating Agency to
the effect that the modification, addition to or elimination
of such provisions will not cause such Rating Agency to
downgrade its then-current ratings of any Class of
Certificates; and
(B) an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Trustee, to the effect that such
modification of, addition to or elimination of such provisions
will not cause any Trust REMIC to cease to qualify as a REMIC
and will not cause any Trust REMIC to be subject to an
entity-level tax caused by the Transfer of any Residual
Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee or
a Person other than the prospective transferee to be subject
to a REMIC-tax caused by the Transfer of a Residual
Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee.
(e) Subject to the preceding subsections, upon surrender for
registration of transfer of any Certificate at any office or agency of the
Trustee maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.12, the Trustee shall
execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated Transferee or
Transferees, one or more new Certificates of the same Class of a like aggregate
Percentage Interest.
(f) At the option of the Holder thereof, any Certificate may
be exchanged for other Certificates of the same Class with authorized
denominations and a like aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of such
Certificate to be exchanged at any office or agency of the Trustee maintained
for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.12. Whenever any Certificates are so
surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver,
the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to
receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange
shall (if so required by the Trustee) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by
a written instrument of transfer in the form satisfactory to the Trustee duly
executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
(g) No service charge to the Certificateholders shall be made
for any transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Trustee may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
(h) All Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange
shall be canceled and destroyed by the Trustee in accordance with its customary
procedures.
Section 5.03. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen
Certificates.
If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the
Trustee, or the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered to
the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer such security or indemnity as may be
required by it to save it harmless, then, in the absence of actual knowledge by
the Trustee that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser,
the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver in exchange for or in lieu
of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
136
Certificate, a new Certificate of the same Class and of like denomination and
Percentage Interest. Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this
Section, the Trustee 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) connected
therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall
constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the applicable
REMIC created hereunder, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost,
stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.
Section 5.04. Persons Deemed Owners.
The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate
Insurer and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any
Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of
receiving distributions pursuant to Section 4.01 and for all other purposes
whatsoever, and none of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the
Certificate Insurer or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to
the contrary.
Section 5.05. Certain Available Information.
On or prior to the date of the first sale of any Private
Certificate to an Independent third party, the Depositor shall provide to the
Trustee ten copies of any private placement memorandum or other disclosure
document used by the Depositor in connection with the offer and sale of such
Certificates. In addition, if any such private placement memorandum or
disclosure document is revised, amended or supplemented at any time following
the delivery thereof to the Trustee, the Depositor promptly shall inform the
Trustee of such event and shall deliver to the Trustee ten copies of the private
placement memorandum or disclosure document, as revised, amended or
supplemented. The Trustee shall maintain at its Corporate Trust Office and shall
make available free of charge during normal business hours for review by any
Holder of a Certificate or any Person identified to the Trustee as a prospective
transferee of a Certificate, originals or copies of the following items: (i) in
the case of a Holder or prospective transferee of a Private Certificate, the
related private placement memorandum or other disclosure document relating to
such Class of Certificates, in the form most recently provided to the Trustee;
and (ii) in all cases, (A) this Agreement and any amendments hereof entered into
pursuant to Section 11.01, (B) all monthly statements required to be delivered
to Certificateholders of the relevant Class pursuant to Section 4.02 since the
Closing Date, and all other notices, reports, statements and written
communications delivered to the Certificateholders of the relevant Class
pursuant to this Agreement since the Closing Date, (C) all certifications
delivered by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee since the Closing Date
pursuant to Section 10.01(h), (D) any and all Officers' Certificates delivered
to the Trustee by the Servicer since the Closing Date to evidence the Servicer's
determination that any Advance or Servicing Advance was, or if made, would be a
Nonrecoverable Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, respectively, and
(E) any and all Officers' Certificates delivered to the Trustee by the Servicer
since the Closing Date pursuant to Section 4.04(a). Copies and mailing of any
and all of the foregoing items will be available from the Trustee upon request
at the expense of the Person requesting the same.
137
Section 5.06. Rights of the Certificate Insurer to Exercise
Rights of Class A-1 Certificateholders.
(a) By accepting its Certificate, each Class A-1
Certificateholder agrees that, unless a Certificate Insurer Default exists, the
Certificate Insurer shall be deemed to be the Class A-1 Certificateholders for
all purposes (other than with respect to the receipt of payment on such Class of
Certificates except payments with respect to which the Certificate Insurer has
subrogation rights as set forth herein) and shall have the right to exercise all
rights of such Certificateholders under this Agreement and under the Class A-1
Certificates without any further consent of such Certificateholders.
(b) All notices, statement reports, certificates or opinions
required by this Agreement to be sent to any Class A-1 Certificateholder shall
also be sent to the Certificate Insurer.
(c) On the Distribution Date immediately after the expiration
of the Term of the Certificate Insurance Policy (as such term is defined in the
Certificate Insurance Policy) or (y) during the occurrence of a Certificate
Insurer Default (until such time as it has been cured), the rights, consents and
notifications granted to the Certificate Insurer in this Agreement shall be
extinguished.
Section 5.07. Certificate Insurer Default.
Notwithstanding anything elsewhere in this Agreement or in the
Certificates to the contrary, if (i) a Certificate Insurer Default exists and is
continuing or (ii) if and to the extent the Certificate Insurer has delivered
its written renunciation of all of its rights under this Agreement, all
provisions of this Agreement which (a) permit the Certificate Insurer to
exercise rights of the Class A-1 Certificateholders, (b) restrict the ability of
the Certificateholders, the Servicer or the Trustee to act without the consent
or approval of the Certificate Insurer, (c) provide that a particular act or
thing must be acceptable to the Certificate Insurer, (d) permit the Certificate
Insurer to direct (or otherwise to require) the actions of the Trustee, the
Servicer or the Certificateholders, (e) provide that any action or omission
taken with the consent, approval or authorization of the Certificate Insurer
shall be authorized hereunder or shall not subject the party taking or omitting
to take such action to any liability hereunder or (f) have a similar effect,
shall be of no further force and effect and the Trustee shall administer the
Trust Fund and perform its obligations hereunder solely for the benefit of the
Holders of the Certificates. Nothing in the foregoing sentence, nor any action
taken pursuant thereto or in compliance therewith, shall be deemed (x) to have
released the Certificate Insurer from any obligation or liability it may have to
any party or to the Class A-1 Certificateholders hereunder, under any other
agreement, instrument or document (including, without limitation, the
Certificate Insurance Policy) or under applicable law or (y) to have terminated
(1) the Certificate Insurer's right to receive Reimbursement Amounts under this
Agreement or the Insurance Agreement, (2) the Certificate Insurer's right to
receive reports and distributions as described in this Agreement or (3) the
requirement that the Certificate Insurer approve any amendments to this
Agreement that would adversely affect the aforementioned rights. At such time as
the Class A-1 Certificates are no longer outstanding hereunder, and no amounts
owed to the Certificate Insurer hereunder with
138
respect to such Class of Certificates remain unpaid, the Certificate Insurer's
rights hereunder with respect to such Class of Certificates shall terminate.
139
ARTICLE VI
THE DEPOSITOR AND THE SERVICER
Section 6.01. Liability of the Depositor and the Servicer.
The Depositor and the Servicer each shall be liable in
accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed
by this Agreement upon them in their respective capacities as Depositor and
Servicer and undertaken hereunder by the Depositor and the Servicer herein.
Section 6.02. Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor or the
Servicer.
Subject to the following paragraph, the Depositor will keep in
full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a corporation under the laws
of the jurisdiction of its incorporation. Subject to the following paragraph,
the Servicer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a
limited partnership under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation. The
Depositor and the Servicer each will obtain and preserve its qualification to do
business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which such
qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement, the Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans
and to perform its respective duties under this Agreement.
The Depositor or the Servicer may be merged or consolidated
with or into any Person, or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to
any Person, in which case any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation
to which the Depositor or the Servicer shall be a party, or any Person
succeeding to the business of the Depositor or the Servicer, shall be the
successor of the Depositor or the Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder,
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding;
provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person to the Servicer shall
be qualified to service mortgage loans on behalf of Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac;
and provided further that the Rating Agencies' ratings of the Class A
Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates in effect immediately prior to such
merger or consolidation will not be qualified, reduced or withdrawn as a result
thereof (as evidenced by a letter to such effect from the Rating Agencies).
Section 6.03. Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the
Servicer and Others.
None of the Depositor, the Servicer or any of the directors,
officers, employees or agents of the Depositor or the Servicer shall be under
any liability to the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders for any action taken
or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this
Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision
shall not protect the Depositor, the Servicer or any such person against any
breach of warranties, representations or covenants made herein, or against any
specific liability imposed on the Servicer pursuant hereto, or against any
liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless
disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Servicer and
any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the Servicer may
rely in good faith
140
on any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and
submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor,
the Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or
the Servicer shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust Fund against
any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal action
relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability
or expense relating to any specific Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans (except as
any such loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to
this Agreement) or any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties
hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties
hereunder. Neither the Depositor nor the Servicer shall be under any obligation
to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action unless such action is related
to its respective duties under this Agreement and, in its good faith reasonable
opinion, does not involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however,
that each of the Depositor and the Servicer may in its discretion undertake any
such action which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to this
Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of
the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, unless the Depositor or the
Servicer acts without the consent of Holders of Certificates entitled to at
least 51% of the Voting Rights, the legal expenses and costs of such action and
any liability resulting therefrom (except any loss, liability or expense
incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the
performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of
obligations and duties hereunder) shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of
the Trust Fund, and the Depositor and the Servicer shall be entitled to be
reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as and to the extent provided in
Section 3.11, any such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of the
Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account.
Section 6.04. Limitation on Resignation of the Servicer.
(a) The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and
duties hereby imposed on it except upon determination that its duties hereunder
are no longer permissible under applicable law or as provided in Section
6.04(c); provided, however, that such prohibition shall not apply to the Interim
Servicer who shall resign following the latest Servicing Transfer Date and who
shall be succeeded by the Servicer. Any such determination pursuant to the
preceding sentence permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced
by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect obtained at the expense of the Servicer
and delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer. No resignation of the
Servicer shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor servicer shall
have assumed the Servicer's responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other than
those liabilities arising prior to the appointment of such successor) and
obligations under this Agreement.
(b) Except as expressly provided herein, the Servicer shall
not assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to
any other Person, or delegate to or subcontract with, or authorize or appoint
any other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be
performed by the Servicer hereunder. The foregoing prohibition on assignment
shall not prohibit the Servicer from designating a Sub-Servicer as payee of any
indemnification amount payable to the Servicer hereunder; provided, however,
that as provided in Section 3.02 hereof, no Sub-Servicer shall be a third-party
beneficiary hereunder and the
141
parties hereto shall not be required to recognize any Subservicer as an
indemnitee under this Agreement.
(c) The Trustee, the Certificate Insurer and the Depositor
hereby specifically (i) consent to the pledge and assignment by the Servicer of
all of the Servicer's right, title and interest in, to and under this Agreement
to the Servicing Rights Pledgee, for the benefit of certain lenders and (ii)
provided that no Servicer Event of Default exists, agree that upon delivery to
the Trustee by the Servicing Rights Pledgee of a letter signed by the Servicer
whereunder the Servicer shall resign as Servicer under this Agreement, the
Trustee shall appoint the Servicing Rights Pledgee or its designee as successor
Servicer, provided that at the time of such appointment, the Servicing Rights
Pledgee or such designee meets the requirements of a successor Servicer pursuant
to Section 7.02(a) hereof and agrees to be subject to the terms of this
Agreement. If, pursuant to any provision hereof, the duties of the Servicer are
transferred to a successor servicer, the entire amount of the Servicing Fee and
other compensation payable to the Servicer pursuant hereto shall thereafter be
payable to such successor servicer.
Section 6.05. Rights of the Depositor in Respect of the
Servicer.
The Servicer shall afford (and any Sub-Servicing Agreement
shall provide that each Sub-Servicer shall afford) the Depositor, the
Certificate Insurer and the Trustee, upon reasonable notice, during normal
business hours, access to all records maintained by the Servicer (and any such
Sub-Servicer) in respect of the Servicer's rights and obligations hereunder and
access to officers of the Servicer (and those of any such Sub-Servicer)
responsible for such obligations. Upon request, the Servicer shall furnish to
the Depositor, the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee its (and any such
Sub-Servicer's) such information relating to the Servicer's capacity to perform
its obligations under this Agreement as it possesses (and that any such
Sub-Servicer possesses). To the extent such information is not otherwise
available to the public, the Depositor, the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee
shall not disseminate any information obtained pursuant to the preceding two
sentences without the Servicer's written consent, except as required pursuant to
this Agreement or to the extent that it is appropriate to do so (i) in working
with legal counsel, auditors, taxing authorities or other governmental agencies,
(ii) pursuant to any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, writ, injunction or
decree of any court or governmental authority having jurisdiction over the
Depositor, the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee or the Trust Fund, and in any
case, the Depositor, the Certificate Insurer or the Trustee, (iii) disclosure of
any and all information that is or becomes publicly known, or information
obtained by the Trustee from sources other than the Depositor, the Certificate
Insurer or the Servicer, (iv) disclosure as required pursuant to this Agreement
or (v) disclosure of any and all information(A) in any preliminary or final
offering circular, registration statement or contract or other document
pertaining to the transactions contemplated by the Agreement approved in advance
by the Depositor, the Certificate Insurer or the Servicer or (B) to any
affiliate, independent or internal auditor, agent, employee or attorney of the
Trustee having a need to know the same, provided that the Trustee advises such
recipient of the confidential nature of the information being disclosed, shall
use its best efforts to assure the confidentiality of any such disseminated
non-public information. The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the
obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and may, but is not obligated
to, perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the
Servicer under this Agreement or exercise the rights of the Servicer under this
Agreement; provided that the Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its
142
obligations under this Agreement by virtue of such performance by the Depositor
or its designee. The Depositor shall not have any responsibility or liability
for any action or failure to act by the Servicer and is not obligated to
supervise the performance of the Servicer under this Agreement or otherwise.
143
ARTICLE VII

Section 7.01. Servicer Events of Default.
(a) "Servicer Event of Default," wherever used herein, means
any one of the following events:
(i) any failure by the Servicer to remit to the Trustee for
distribution to the Certificateholders any payment (other than an
Advance required to be made from its own funds on any Servicer
Remittance Date pursuant to Section 4.03) required to be made under the
terms of the Certificates and this Agreement which continues unremedied
for a period of one Business Day after the date upon which written
notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have
been given to the Servicer by the Depositor, the Trustee (in which case
notice shall be provided by telecopy), or to the Servicer, the
Depositor, the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee by the Holders of
Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights; or
(ii) any failure on the part of the Servicer duly to observe
or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or
agreements on the part of the Servicer contained in this Agreement, or
the breach by the Servicer of any representation and warranty contained
in Section 2.05, which continues unremedied for a period of 30 days (or
if such failure or breach cannot be remedied within 30 days, then such
remedy shall have been commenced within 30 days and diligently pursued
thereafter; provided, however, that in no event shall such failure or
breach be allowed to exist for a period of greater than 60 days) after
the earlier of (i) the date on which written notice of such failure,
requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the
Servicer by the Depositor or the Trustee, or to the Servicer, the
Depositor and the Trustee by the Certificate Insurer or the Holders of
Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights and (ii)
actual knowledge of such failure by a Servicing Officer; or
(iii) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory
authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case
under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or
similar law or the appointment of a conservator or receiver or
liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of
assets and liabilities or similar proceeding, or for the winding-up or
liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the
Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained in force
undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days; or
(iv) the Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a
conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment
of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings
of or relating to it or of or relating to all or substantially all of
its property; or
(v) the Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay
its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take
advantage of any applicable
144
insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the
benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its
obligations; or
(vi) any failure by the Servicer of the Servicer Termination
Trigger; or
(vii) any failure of the Servicer to make any Advance on any
Servicer Remittance Date required to be made from its own funds
pursuant to Section 4.03 which continues unremedied until 3:00 p.m. New
York time on the Business Day immediately following the Servicer
Remittance Date.
If a Servicer Event of Default described in clauses (i)
through (vi) of this Section shall occur, then, and in each and every such case,
so long as such Servicer Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the
Depositor or the Trustee may, and at the written direction of the Holders of
Certificates entitled to at least 51% of Voting Rights, the Trustee shall, by
notice in writing to the Servicer, the Certificate Insurer, the Servicing Rights
Pledgee (if any) and to the Depositor, terminate all of the rights and
obligations of the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement, to
the extent permitted by law, and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds
thereof. If a Servicer Event of Default described in clause (vii) hereof shall
occur, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer, the Trustee, the
Certificate Insurer and the Depositor, terminate all of the rights and
obligations of the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and
in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. On or after the receipt
by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer
under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (other than as a
Holder of any Certificate) or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and
be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under this Section, and, without
limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered, as attorney-in-fact
or otherwise, to execute and deliver, on behalf of and at the expense of the
Servicer, any and all documents and other instruments and to do or accomplish
all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such
notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or
assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The
Servicer agrees promptly (and in any event no later than ten Business Days
subsequent to such notice) to provide the Trustee with all documents and records
requested by it to enable it to assume the Servicer's functions under this
Agreement, and to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the
Servicer's responsibilities and rights under this Agreement, including, without
limitation, the transfer within one Business Day to the Trustee for
administration by it of all cash amounts which at the time shall be or should
have been credited by the Servicer to the Collection Account held by or on
behalf of the Servicer, the Distribution Account or any REO Account or Servicing
Account held by or on behalf of the Servicer or thereafter be received with
respect to the Mortgage Loans or any REO Property serviced by the Servicer
(provided, however, that the Servicer shall continue to be entitled to receive
all amounts accrued or owing to it under this Agreement on or prior to the date
of such termination, whether in respect of Advances or otherwise, and shall
continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 6.03, notwithstanding any
such termination, with respect to events occurring prior to such termination).
For purposes of this Section 7.01, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have
knowledge of a Servicer Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee assigned to and working in the Trustee's Corporate Trust Office has
actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact
such a Servicer Event of
145
Default is received by the Trustee and such notice references the Certificates,
the Trust Fund or this Agreement.
Section 7.02. Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
(a) (1) On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice
of termination, the Trustee (or such other successor servicer as is approved in
accordance with this Agreement) shall separately assume and become the successor
in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement
and the transactions set forth or provided for herein, and all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter
shall be assumed by the Trustee (except for any representations or warranties of
the Servicer under this Agreement, the responsibilities, duties and liabilities
contained in Section 2.05 and the obligation to deposit amounts in respect of
losses pursuant to Section 3.12) by the terms and provisions hereof including,
without limitation, the Servicer's obligations to make Advances pursuant to
Section 4.03; provided, however, that if the Trustee is prohibited by law or
regulation from obligating itself to make advances regarding delinquent mortgage
loans, then the Trustee shall not be obligated to make Advances pursuant to
Section 4.03; and provided further, that any failure to perform such duties or
responsibilities caused by the Servicer's failure to provide information
required by Section 7.01 shall not be considered a default by the Trustee as
successor to the Servicer hereunder. As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall
be entitled to the Servicing Fee and all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans to
which the Servicer would have been entitled if it had continued to act
hereunder. Notwithstanding the above, (i) if the Trustee is unwilling to act as
successor Servicer or (ii) if the Trustee is legally unable so to act, the
Trustee shall appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint,
any established housing and home finance institution, bank or other mortgage
loan or home equity loan servicer having a net worth of not less than
$50,000,000 as the successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all
or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer
hereunder; provided, that the appointment of any such successor Servicer will
not result in the qualification, reduction or withdrawal of the ratings assigned
to the Certificates or the ratings that are in effect by the Rating Agencies as
evidenced by a letter to such effect from the Rating Agencies without regard to
the Certificate Insurance Policy; and provided further that the representations
and warranties in Section 2.05 shall be true and correct as to such successor
Servicer; and provided further that except in the case of the Servicing Rights
Pledgee or its designee becoming successor servicer as contemplated by Section
7.02(b), such successor shall be approved by the Certificate Insurer in writing,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
All Servicing Transfer Costs shall be paid by the predecessor
Servicer upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs (provided,
that if the Trustee is the predecessor Servicer by reason of this Section 7.02,
such costs shall be paid by the Servicer preceding the Trustee as successor
servicer), and if such predecessor or initial Servicer, as applicable, defaults
in its obligation to pay such costs, such costs shall be paid by the successor
Servicer or the Trustee (in which case the successor Servicer or the Trustee, as
applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor from the assets of the
Trust Fund).
(2) If no Certificate Insurer Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Certificate Insurer, except in the case of the Servicing Rights
Pledgee becoming a successor Servicer in accordance with Section 7.02(b) below,
shall have the right to consent to any
146
successor Servicer which the Trustee may propose to appoint except with respect
to a proposed successor to be appointed by a court of competent jurisdiction. No
appointment of a successor to the Servicer under this Agreement shall be
effective until the assumption by the successor of all of the Servicer's
responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder. In connection with such
appointment and assumption described herein, 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 the Servicer as such
hereunder. The Depositor, the Trustee and such successor shall take such action,
consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such
succession. Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer under this
Agreement, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided.
(b) In the event of a Servicer Event of Default,
notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, the Trustee, the Certificate
Insurer and the Depositor hereby agree that upon delivery to the Trustee by the
Servicing Rights Pledgee of a letter signed by the Servicer within ten Business
Days of the date on which the Trustee sent notice of such termination, the
Servicing Rights Pledgee or its designee shall be appointed as successor
Servicer (provided that at the time of such appointment the Servicing Rights
Pledgee or such designee meets the requirements of a successor Servicer set
forth above) and the Servicing Rights Pledgee agrees to be subject to the terms
of this Agreement. If the Servicing Rights Pledgee fails to provide the Trustee
with such letter, the Trustee shall appoint such successor Servicer in
accordance with this Section 7.02. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
above, the Servicer shall perform all the obligations of Servicer hereunder
until such successor is appointed.
(c) In connection with the termination or resignation of the
Servicer hereunder, either (i) the successor servicer, including the Trustee if
the Trustee is acting as successor Servicer, shall represent and warrant that it
is a member of MERS in good standing and shall agree to comply in all material
respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the servicing
of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with MERS, in which case the
predecessor Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Servicer in causing MERS
to revise its records to reflect the transfer of servicing to the successor
Servicer as necessary under MERS' rules and regulations, or (ii) the predecessor
Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Servicer in causing MERS to execute
and deliver an assignment of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the
Mortgage from MERS to the Trustee and to execute and deliver such other notices,
documents and other instruments as may be necessary or desirable to effect a
transfer of such Mortgage Loan or servicing of such Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R)
System to the successor Servicer. The predecessor Servicer shall file or cause
to be filed any such assignment in the appropriate recording office. The
predecessor Servicer shall bear any and all fees of MERS, costs of preparing any
assignments of Mortgage, and fees and costs of filing any assignments of
Mortgage that may be required under this Section 7.02(c).

147
(b) Not later than the later of 60 days after the occurrence
of any event, which constitutes or which, with notice or lapse of time or both,
would constitute a Servicer Event of Default or five days after a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee becomes aware of the occurrence of such an event, the
Trustee shall transmit by mail to the Certificate Insurer and all Holders of
Certificates notice of each such occurrence, unless such default or Servicer
Event of Default shall have been cured or waived.
Section 7.04. Waiver of Servicer Events of Default.
The Holders representing at least 66% of the Voting Rights
evidenced by all Classes of Certificates affected by any default or Servicer

provided, however, that a default or Servicer Event of Default under clause (i)
or (vii) of Section 7.01 may be waived only by all of the Holders of the Regular
Certificates. Upon any such waiver of a default or Servicer Event of Default,
such default or Servicer Event of Default shall cease to exist and shall be
deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. No such waiver shall
extend to any subsequent or other default or Servicer Event of Default or impair
any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

ARTICLE VIII
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE
Section 8.01. Duties of Trustee.
The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of
Default and after the curing of all Servicer Events of Default which may have
occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are
specifically set forth in this Agreement. During a Servicer Event of Default,
the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a
prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
such person's own affairs. Any permissive right of the Trustee enumerated in
this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty.
The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates,
statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished
to the Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they
conform on their face to the requirements of this Agreement. If any such
instrument is found not to conform on its face to the requirements of this
Agreement in a material manner, the Trustee shall take such action as it deems
appropriate to have the instrument corrected, and if the instrument is not
corrected to its satisfaction, will provide notice thereof to the
Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer.
No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve
the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent
failure to act or its own misconduct; provided, however, that:
(i) Prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default,
and after the curing of all such Servicer Events of Default which may
have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be
determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties
and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no
implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement
against the Trustee and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the
Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the
statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon
any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee that conform to
the requirements of this Agreement;
(ii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for an error
of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible
Officers of the Trustee unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was
negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and
(iii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect
to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good
faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of Certificates
entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights relating to the time,
method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
149
available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred
upon it, under this Agreement.
Section 8.02. Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
(i) The Trustee may request and conclusively rely upon and
shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any
resolution, Officers' Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other
certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,
consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper or document reasonably
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by
the proper party or parties;
(ii) The Trustee may consult with counsel and any Opinion of
Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in
respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in
good faith and in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel;
(iii) The Trustee shall not be under any obligation to
exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement or
to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation
hereto at the request, order or direction of the Certificate Insurer or
any of the Certificateholders, pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement, unless such Certificateholders or the Certificate Insurer,
as applicable, shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity
reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and
liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; nothing contained
herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the
occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default (which has not been cured or
waived), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their
exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such person's own affairs;
(iv) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any action
taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be
authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon
it by this Agreement;
(v) Prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default
hereunder and after the curing of all Servicer Events of Default which
may have occurred, the Trustee shall not be bound to make any
investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution,
certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,
consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless
requested in writing to do so by the Certificate Insurer or the Holders
of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights;
provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the
Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by
it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the
Trustee not reasonably assured to the Trustee by such
Certificateholders, the Trustee may require indemnity reasonably
satisfactory to it
150
against such expense or liability from such Certificateholders as a
condition to taking any such action;
(vi) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers
hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or
through agents, accountants or attorneys, and the Trustee shall not be
responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agents,
accountants or attorneys appointed with due care by it hereunder; and
(vii) The Trustee shall have no obligation to invest and
reinvest any cash held in the absence of timely and specific written
investment direction from the Servicer or the Depositor. In no event
shall the Trustee be liable for the selection of investments or for
investment losses incurred thereon. The Trustee shall have no liability
in respect of losses incurred as a result of the liquidation of any
investment incurred as a result of the liquidation of any investment
prior to its stated maturity or the failure of the Servicer or the
Depositor to provide timely written investment direction.
(b) All rights of action under this Agreement or under any of
the Certificates, enforceable by the Trustee, may be enforced by it without the
possession of any of the Certificates, or the production thereof at the trial or
other proceeding relating thereto, and any such suit, action or proceeding
instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in the name of the Trustee for the
benefit of all the Holders of such Certificates, subject to the provisions of
this Agreement.
Section 8.03. Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage
Loans.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other
than the signature of the Trustee, the authentication of the Certificate
Registrar on the Certificates, the acknowledgments of the Trustee contained in
Article II and the representations and warranties of the Trustee in Section
8.13) shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes
no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations or
warranties as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement (other than as
specifically set forth with respect to such party in Section 8.13) or of the
Certificates (other than the signature of the Trustee and authentication of the
Certificate Registrar on the Certificates) or of any Mortgage Loan or related
document or of MERS or the MERS(R) System. The Trustee shall not be accountable
for the use or application by the Depositor of any of the Certificates or of the
proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid
to the Depositor or the Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited
in or withdrawn from the Collection Account by the Servicer, other than any
funds held by or on behalf of the Trustee in accordance with Section 3.10,
subject to Section 8.01.
Section 8.04. Trustee May Own Certificates.
The Trustee in its individual capacity or any other capacity
may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights it would
have if it were not Trustee.
151
Section 8.05. Trustee's Fees and Expenses.
(a) The Trustee shall withdraw from the Distribution Account
on each Distribution Date and pay to itself the Trustee Fee. The Trustee, or any
director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee shall be indemnified by the
Trust Fund and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense (not
including expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee
including the compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and
counsel, in the ordinary course of the Trustee's performance in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement) incurred by the Trustee in connection with any
Servicer Event of Default (not including expenses, disbursements and advances
incurred or made by the Trustee in its capacity as successor Servicer), default,
claim or legal action or any pending or threatened claim or legal action arising
out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its obligations
and duties under this Agreement, other than any loss, liability or expense (i)
resulting from a breach of the Servicer's obligations and duties under this
Agreement and the Mortgage Loans (for which the Servicer shall indemnify
pursuant to Section 8.05(b)), (ii) for the expenses of preparing and filing Tax
Returns pursuant to Section 10.01(d) or (iii) any loss, liability or expense
incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the
performance of its duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of its
respective obligations and duties hereunder. Any amounts payable to the Trustee,
or any director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee in respect of the
indemnification provided by this paragraph (a), or pursuant to any other right
of reimbursement from the Trust Fund that the Trustee, or any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Trustee, may have hereunder in its capacity as such,
may be withdrawn by the Trustee from the Distribution Account at any time.
(b) The Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trustee and the
Certificate Insurer from, and hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or
expense resulting from a breach of the Servicer's obligations and duties under
this Agreement. Such indemnity shall survive the termination or discharge of
this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. Any payment
hereunder made by the Servicer to the Trustee shall be from the Servicer's own
funds, without reimbursement from the Trust Fund therefor.
The provisions of this Section 8.05 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement or the earlier resignation or removal of the
Trustee.
Section 8.06. Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.
The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation or
an association (other than the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer or any
Affiliate of the foregoing) organized and doing business under the laws of any
state or the United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise
corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least
$50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authority. If such corporation or association publishes reports of conditions at
least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid
supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section the
combined capital and surplus of such corporation or association shall be deemed
to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of
condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be
eligible in accordance with the
152
provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner
and with the effect specified in Section 8.07.
Section 8.07. Resignation and Removal of the Trustee.
The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the
trust hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Depositor, the
Servicer, the Certificate Insurer and the Certificateholders. Upon receiving
such notice of resignation of the Trustee, the Depositor shall, with the
Certificate Insurer's consent, promptly appoint a successor trustee acceptable
to the Certificate Insurer by written instrument, in duplicate, which instrument
shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and to the successor trustee. A copy
of such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders, the Trustee,
the Certificate Insurer and the Servicer by the Depositor. If no successor
Trustee shall have been so appointed and having accepted appointment within 25
days after the giving of such notice of resignation, then the Certificate
Insurer may appoint a successor Trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been
so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of
such notice of resignation or removal, the Trustee may petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.
If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after
written request therefor by the Depositor, or if at any time the Trustee shall
become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a
receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public
officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or
affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the
Depositor may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written
instrument, in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so
removed and to the successor trustee. A copy of such instrument shall be
delivered to the Certificateholders, the Certificate Insurer and the Servicer by
the Depositor.
The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the
Voting Rights may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee
acceptable to the Certificate Insurer by written instrument or instruments, in
triplicate, signed by such Holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized,
one complete set of which instruments shall be delivered to the Depositor, one
complete set to the Trustee so removed and one complete set to the successor so
appointed. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the
Certificateholders and the Servicer by the Depositor.
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall not
become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as
provided in Section 8.08.
Section 8.08. Successor Trustee.
Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, the Certificate Insurer
and to its predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment
hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee
shall become effective and such successor trustee without any further
153
act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers,
duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if
originally named as Trustee herein. The predecessor trustee shall deliver to the
successor trustee all Mortgage Files and related documents and statements, as
well as all moneys, held by it hereunder (other than any Mortgage Files at the
time held by a custodian, which custodian shall become the agent of any
successor trustee hereunder), and the Depositor and the predecessor trustee
shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may
reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in
the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.
No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in
this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall
be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 and the appointment of such
successor trustee shall not result in a downgrading of any Class of Certificates
(without regard to the Certificate Insurance Policy) by either Rating Agency, as
evidenced by a letter from each Rating Agency.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as
provided in this Section, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of
such trustee hereunder to the Certificate Insurer and all Holders of
Certificates at their addresses as shown in the Certificate Register. If the
Depositor fails to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of
appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such
notice to be mailed at the expense of the Depositor.
Section 8.09. Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.
Any corporation or association into which the Trustee may be
merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation or
association resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the
Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or association succeeding to the
business of the Trustee shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder,
provided such corporation or association shall be eligible under the provisions
of Section 8.06, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act
on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.
Section 8.10. Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for
the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any
part of REMIC I or property securing the same may at the time be located, the
Servicer and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute
and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the
Trustee and the Certificate Insurer to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly
with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part
of REMIC I, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title
to REMIC I, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this
Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the
Servicer and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. Any such
co-trustee or separate trustee shall be subject to the written approval of the
Servicer and the Certificate Insurer. If the Servicer and the Certificate
Insurer shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the
receipt by it of a request so to do, or in case a Servicer Event of Default
154
shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to
make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be
required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section
8.06 hereunder and no notice to Holders of Certificates of the appointment of
co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under Section 8.08
hereof. The Servicer shall be responsible for the fees of any co-trustee or
separate trustee appointed under this Section 8.10.
In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate
trustee pursuant to this Section 8.10, all rights, powers, duties and
obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed
upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or
co-trustee jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction
in which any particular act or acts are to be performed by the Trustee (whether
as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Servicer hereunder), the Trustee
shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event
such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to
REMIC I or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and
performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the
Trustee.
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 or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and
the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon
its acceptance of the trust conferred, shall be vested with the estates or
property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the
Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions
of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement
relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection
to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a
copy thereof given to the Depositor, the Certificate Insurer and the Servicer.
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time,
constitute the Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and
authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in
respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee
or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all
of its estates, 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.
Section 8.11. Reserved.
Section 8.12. Appointment of Office or Agency.
The Trustee will designate an office or agency in the City of
New York where the Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer
or exchange, and presented for final distribution, and where notices and demands
to or upon the Trustee in respect of the Certificates and this Agreement may be
delivered. As of the Closing Date, the Trustee designates the office of its
agent located c/o DTC Transfer Agent Services, 00 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxxx
Entrance, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000 for such purposes.
155
Section 8.13. Representations and Warranties of the Trustee.
The Trustee hereby represents and warrants, solely as to
itself, to the Servicer, the Certificate Insurer and the Depositor, as of the
Closing Date, that:
(i) It is a national banking association duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the United
States.
(ii) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by it, and
the performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement by it,
will not violate its charter or bylaws.
(iii) It has the full power and authority to enter into and
consummate all transactions contemplated by this Agreement, has duly
authorized the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement,
and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement.
(iv) This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution and
delivery by the other parties hereto, constitutes a valid, legal and
binding obligation of it, enforceable against it in accordance with the
terms hereof, subject to (A) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership, reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and (B) general principles
of equity, regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a
proceeding in equity or at law.
156
ARTICLE IX
TERMINATION
Section 9.01. Termination Upon Repurchase or Liquidation of
All Mortgage Loans.
(a) Subject to Section 9.02, the respective obligations and
responsibilities under this Agreement of the Depositor, the Servicer and the
Trustee (other than the obligations of the Servicer to the Trustee pursuant to
Section 8.05 and of the Servicer to provide for and the Trustee to make payments
in respect of the REMIC I Regular Interests and the Classes of Certificates as
hereinafter set forth) shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders
and the deposit of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and required
hereunder to be so paid or deposited on the Distribution Date coinciding with or
following the earlier to occur of (i) the purchase by the Terminator (as defined
below) of all Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I and (ii)
the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of
the last Mortgage Loan or REO Property remaining in REMIC I; provided, however,
that in no event shall the trust created hereby continue beyond the expiration
of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X.
Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. Xxxxx,
living on the date hereof. Subject to Section 3.10 hereof, the purchase by the
Terminator of all Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I
shall be at a price (the "Termination Price") equal to the greater of:
(A) the aggregate Purchase Price of all the Mortgage Loans
included in REMIC I, plus the appraised value of each REO Property, if any,
included in REMIC I, such appraisal to be conducted by an Independent appraiser
selected by (i) the Terminator and (ii) if the Class A Certificates or a Class
of Mezzanine Certificates will not receive all amounts owed to it as a result of
the termination, an Independent appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Terminator
and the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders and
(B) the aggregate fair market value of all of the assets of
REMIC I (as determined as of the close of business on the third Business Day
next preceding the date upon which notice of any such termination is furnished
to the Certificateholders pursuant to Section 9.01(c) by (i) the Terminator and
(ii) if the Class A Certificates or a Class of Mezzanine Certificates will not
receive all amounts owed to it as a result of the termination, an Independent
appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Terminator and the Trustee on behalf of
the Certificateholders).
However, this option may only be exercised if the Termination
Price is sufficient to pay (i) any amounts owed to the Certificate Insurer under
the Insurance Agreement and (ii) all interest accrued on, as well as amounts
necessary to retire the principal balance of, any net interest margin securities
backed by the Class CE Certificates and Class P Certificates. If the
determination of the appraised value of each REO Property pursuant to (A) above
or the fair market value of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties pursuant to
(B) above shall be required to be made by the Terminator and an Independent
appraiser as provided above, (i) such appraisal shall be obtained at no expense
to the Trustee and (ii) the Trustee may conclusively rely on, and
157
shall be protected in relying on, such appraisal. If a termination pursuant to
this Section 9.01(a) or Section 9.01(b) will result in a claim under the
Certificate Insurance Policy or if any amount owed to the Certificate Insurer
will not be fully reimbursed after such termination, the consent of the
Certificate Insurer shall be required prior to the Terminator exercising such
option.
(b) The majority Holder of the Class CE Certificates (unless
such Holder is the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller), or if such majority
Holder fails to exercise such option, the Servicer (or an Affiliate of the
Servicer) shall have the right (the party exercising such right, the
"Terminator"), to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property
remaining in REMIC I pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph no later
than the Determination Date in the month immediately preceding the Distribution
Date on which the Certificates will be retired; provided, however, that the
Terminator may elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property
remaining in REMIC I pursuant to clause (i) above only if the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the
Trust Fund at the time of such election is reduced to less than 10% of the
aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.
By acceptance of a Residual Certificate, the Holders of the Residual
Certificates agree, in connection with any termination hereunder, to assign and
transfer any amounts in excess of par, and to the extent received in respect of
such termination, to pay any such amounts to the Holders of the Class CE
Certificates.
(c) Notice of the liquidation of the Certificates shall be
given promptly by the Trustee by letter to Certificateholders and the
Certificate Insurer mailed (a) in the event such notice is given in connection
with the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property by the Terminator,
not earlier than the 10th day and not later than the 20th day of the month next
preceding the month of the final distribution on the related Certificates or (b)
otherwise during the month of such final distribution on or before the
Determination Date in such month, in each case specifying (i) the Distribution
Date upon which the Trust Fund will terminate and the final payment in respect
of the REMIC I Regular Interests, as applicable and the related Certificates
will be made upon presentation and surrender of the related Certificates at the
office of the Trustee therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final
payment, (iii) that no interest shall accrue in respect of the REMIC I Regular
Interests or the related Certificates from and after the Interest Accrual Period
relating to the final Distribution Date therefor and (iv) that the Record Date
otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being
made only upon presentation and surrender of the related Certificates at the
office of the Trustee. In the event such notice is given in connection with the
purchase of all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I
by the Terminator, the Terminator shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in
the Distribution Account not later than the last Business Day of the month next
preceding the month of the final distribution on the related Certificates an
amount in immediately available funds equal to the above-described purchase
price. The Trustee shall remit to the Servicer from such funds deposited in the
Distribution Account (i) any amounts which the Servicer would be permitted to
withdraw and retain from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.11 and
(ii) any other amounts otherwise payable by the Trustee to the Servicer from
amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, in each case prior to making any final distributions pursuant to
Section 10.01(d) below. Upon certification to the Trustee by a Servicing Officer
of the making of such final deposit, the Trustee shall promptly release to the
Terminator the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans,
158
and the Trustee shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other
instruments necessary to effectuate such transfer.
Immediately following the deposit of funds in trust hereunder
in respect of the Certificates, the Trust Fund shall terminate.
Section 9.02. Additional Termination Requirements.
(a) In the event that the Terminator purchases all the
Mortgage Loans and each REO Property or the final payment on or other
liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan or REO Property remaining in REMIC I
pursuant to Section 9.01, the Trust Fund (or the applicable Trust REMIC) shall
be terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements:
(i) The Trustee shall specify the first day in the 90-day
liquidation period in a statement attached to each Trust REMIC's final

of the Code and any regulations thereunder, as evidenced by an Opinion
of Counsel obtained at the expense of the Terminator;
(ii) During such 90-day liquidation period and, at or prior to
the time of making of the final payment on the Certificates, the
Trustee shall sell all of the assets of REMIC I to the Terminator for
cash; and

Certificates, the Trustee shall distribute or credit, or cause to be
distributed or credited, to the Holders of the Residual Certificates in
respect of the Class R-I Interest all cash on hand in the Trust Fund
(other than cash retained to meet claims), and the Trust Fund shall
terminate at that time.

(e) The Trustee shall perform on behalf of each Trust 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, as required by the Code, the REMIC Provisions or other
such compliance guidance, the Trustee shall provide (i) to any Transferor of a
Residual Certificate such information as is necessary for the application of any
tax relating to the transfer of a Residual Certificate to any Person who is not
a Permitted Transferee, (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or
reports as are required by the Code or the REMIC Provisions including reports
relating to interest, original issue discount and market discount or premium

days after the Closing Date, all information or data that the Trustee reasonably
determines to be relevant for tax purposes as to the valuations and issue prices
of the Certificates, including, without limitation, the price, yield, prepayment
assumption and projected cash flow of the Certificates.

Trust REMIC created hereunder to take such action as shall be necessary to
create or maintain the status thereof as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions. The
Trustee shall not take any action or cause the Trust Fund 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 each Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax
upon the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited
transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on
contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code)
161
(either such event, an "Adverse REMIC Event") unless the Trustee and the
Certificate Insurer has received an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee
and the Certificate Insurer (at the expense of the party seeking to take such
action but in no event at the expense of the Trustee) to the effect that the
contemplated action will not, with respect to any Trust REMIC, endanger such
status or result in the imposition of such a tax, nor shall the Servicer take or
fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the
Trustee and the Certificate Insurer has advised it in writing that it has
received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could
occur with respect to such action; provided that the Servicer may conclusively
rely on such Opinion of Counsel and shall incur no liability for its action or
failure to act in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel. In addition, prior to
taking any action with respect to any Trust REMIC or the respective assets of
each, or causing any Trust REMIC to take any action, which is not contemplated
under the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer will consult with the Trustee,
the Certificate Insurer or their respective designee, in writing, with respect
to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect
to any Trust REMIC and the Servicer shall not take any such action or cause any
Trust REMIC to take any such action as to which the Trustee and the Certificate
Insurer has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur;
provided that the Servicer may conclusively rely on such writing and shall incur
no liability for its action or failure to act in accordance with such writing.
The Trustee and the Certificate Insurer may consult with counsel to make such
written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne by the party seeking to take
the action not permitted by this Agreement, but in no event shall such cost be
an expense of the Trustee or the Certificate Insurer. At all times as may be
required by the Code, the Trustee will ensure that substantially all of the
assets of REMIC I will consist of "qualified mortgages" as defined in Section
860G(a)(3) of the Code and "permitted investments" as defined in Section
860G(a)(5) of the Code, to the extent such obligations are within the Trustee's
control and not otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.
(g) In the event that any tax is imposed on "prohibited
transactions" of any Trust REMIC created hereunder as defined in Section
860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the "net income from foreclosure property" of such
REMIC as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, on any contributions to any
such REMIC after the Startup Day therefor pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the
Code, or any other tax is imposed by the Code or any applicable provisions of
state or local tax laws, such tax shall be charged (i) to the Trustee pursuant
to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by
the Trustee of any of its obligations under this Article X, (ii) to the Servicer
pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a
breach by the Servicer of any of its obligations under Article III or this
Article X, or (iii) in all other cases, against amounts on deposit in the
Distribution Account and shall be paid by withdrawal therefrom.
(h) On or before April 15 of each calendar year, commencing
April 15, 2005, the Trustee shall deliver to each Rating Agency and the
Certificate Insurer an Officer's Certificate of the Trustee stating the
Trustee's compliance with this Article X.
(i) The Trustee shall, for federal income tax purposes,
maintain books and records with respect to each Trust REMIC on a calendar year
and on an accrual basis.
162
(j) Following the Startup Day, neither the Servicer nor the
Trustee shall accept any contributions of assets to any Trust REMIC other than
in connection with any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan delivered in
accordance with Section 2.03 unless it shall have received an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in the Trust Fund will not cause
any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates
are outstanding or subject any Trust REMIC to any tax under the REMIC Provisions
or other applicable provisions of federal, state and local law or ordinances.
(k) Neither the Trustee nor the Servicer shall enter into any
arrangement by which any Trust REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation
for services nor knowingly permit any Trust REMIC to receive any income from
assets other than "qualified mortgages" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the
Code or "permitted investments" as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.
Section 10.02. Prohibited Transactions and Activities.
None of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee shall sell,
dispose of or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans (except in connection
with (i) the foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, including but not limited to, the
acquisition or sale of a Mortgaged Property acquired by deed in lieu of
foreclosure, (ii) the bankruptcy of REMIC I, (iii) the termination of REMIC I
pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement, (iv) a substitution pursuant to
Article II of this Agreement or (v) a purchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to
Article II or III of this Agreement), nor acquire any assets for any Trust REMIC
(other than REO Property acquired in respect of a defaulted Mortgage Loan), nor
sell or dispose of any investments in the Collection Account or the Distribution
Account for gain, nor accept any contributions to any Trust REMIC after the
Closing Date (other than a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan delivered in
accordance with Section 2.03), unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel,
addressed to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer (at the expense of the
party seeking to cause such sale, disposition, substitution, acquisition or
contribution but in no event at the expense of the Trustee) that such sale,
disposition, substitution, acquisition or contribution will not (a) affect
adversely the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (b) cause any Trust REMIC
to be subject to a tax on "prohibited transactions" or "contributions" pursuant
to the REMIC Provisions.
Section 10.03. Servicer and Trustee Indemnification.
(a) The Trustee agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the
Depositor and the Servicer for any taxes and costs including, without
limitation, any reasonable attorneys' fees imposed on or incurred by the Trust
Fund, the Depositor or the Servicer as a result of a breach of the Trustee's
covenants set forth in this Article X.
(b) The Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the
Depositor, the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee for any taxes and costs
including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys' fees imposed on or
incurred by the Trust Fund, the Depositor or the Trustee, as a result of a
breach of the Servicer's covenants set forth in Article III or this Article X.

This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the
Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee without the consent of any of the
Certificateholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or defect, (ii) to correct, modify
or supplement any provisions herein (including to give effect to the
expectations of Certificateholders), (iii) to amend the provisions of Section
4.06 or (iii) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions
arising under this Agreement or the Certificate Insurance Policy which shall not
be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, provided that such action
shall not, as evidenced by either (a) an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the
Trustee and the Certificate Insurer adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of any Certificateholder or the Certificate Insurer or (b) written
notice to the Depositor, the Servicer, the Certificate Insurer and the Trustee
from the Rating Agencies that such action will not result in the reduction or
withdrawal of the rating of any outstanding Class of Certificates (without
regard to the Certificate Insurance Policy) with respect to which it is a Rating
Agency). No amendment shall be deemed to adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder who shall have consented thereto,
and no Opinion of Counsel or Rating Agency confirmation shall be required to
address the effect of any such amendment on any such consenting
Certificateholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither an Opinion of Counsel
nor written notice to the Depositor, the Servicer, the Certificate Insurer and
the Trustee from the Rating Agencies will be required in connection with an
amendment to the provisions of Section 4.06.
This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the
Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Certificate
Insurer and the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting
Rights for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or
eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any
manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates; provided, however, that no
such amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing
of, payments received on Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed on
any Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (ii)
adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Holders of any
Class of Certificates (as evidenced by either (i) an Opinion of Counsel
delivered to the Trustee or (ii) written notice to the Depositor, the Servicer
and the Trustee from the Rating Agencies that such action will not result in the
reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any outstanding Class of Certificates
with respect to which it is a Rating Agency) in a manner, other than as
described in (i) or (iii) modify the consents required by the immediately
preceding clauses (i) and (ii) without the consent of the Holders of all
Certificates then outstanding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, for purposes of the giving or withholding of consents pursuant to
this Section 11.01, Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or the
Servicer or any Affiliate thereof shall be entitled to Voting Rights with
respect to matters affecting such Certificates.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment to this Agreement
shall require the prior written consent of the Certificate Insurer if such
amendment adversely affects in any
164
respect the rights or interests of the Certificate Insurer or of the Insured
Certificates (without regard to the Certificate Insurance Policy). The Depositor
shall send a copy of any proposed amendment to this Agreement to the Certificate
Insurer prior to execution of the amendment. The Certificate Insurer shall
notify the Trustee in writing, within a reasonable time following its receipt of
a copy of the proposed amendment, whether the Certificate Insurer has determined
that its consent to such amendment is required.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall
have first received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment (i)
will not result in the imposition of any tax on any Trust REMIC pursuant to the
REMIC Provisions or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any
time that any Certificates are outstanding and (ii) is authorized or permitted
hereunder.
Promptly after the execution of any such amendment the Trustee
shall furnish a copy of such amendment to each Certificateholder and the
Certificate Insurer.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of
Certificateholders under this Section 11.01 to approve the particular form of
any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve
the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing
the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be
subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.
The cost of any Opinion of Counsel to be delivered pursuant to
this Section 11.01 shall be borne by the Person seeking the related amendment,
but in no event shall such Opinion of Counsel be an expense of the Trustee.
The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to enter into any
amendment pursuant to this Section that affects its rights, duties and
immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.
Section 11.02. Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement is
subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices for real property
records in all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or
all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and in any other
appropriate public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be
effected by the Servicer at the expense of the Certificateholders, but only upon
direction of the Certificateholders accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel to the
effect that such recordation materially and beneficially affects the interests
of the Certificateholders.
For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this
Agreement as 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 such counterparts shall
constitute but one and the same instrument.

operate to terminate this Agreement or the Trust Fund, nor entitle such
Certificateholder's legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to
take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the
Trust Fund, nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the
parties hereto or any of them.
No Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as
expressly provided for herein) or in any manner otherwise control the operation

action taken by the parties to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof.
No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any
provision of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in
equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, unless such
Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer a
written notice of default and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore
provided, and unless also the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25%
of the Voting Rights 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 costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or
thereby, and the Trustee, for 15 days after its receipt of such notice, request
and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such
action, suit or proceeding. It is understood and intended, and 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 whatsoever by virtue 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 equal, ratable and common benefit of all
Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this
Section, each and every Certificateholder, the Trustee shall be entitled to such
relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions
thereof, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder shall
be determined in accordance with such laws, without regard to the conflicts of
laws provisions thereof.

Section 11.08. Article and Section References.
Section 11.09. Grant of Security Interest.
It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the
conveyance of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor to the Trustee, be, and be
construed as, a sale of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor and not a pledge of
the Mortgage Loans to secure a debt or other obligation of the Depositor.
However, in the event that, notwithstanding the aforementioned intent of the
parties, the Mortgage Loans are held to be property of the Depositor, then, (a)
it is the express intent of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge
of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor to the Trustee to secure a debt or other
obligation of the Depositor and (b)(1) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be
a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the Uniform
Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of New York; (2) the
conveyance provided for in Section 2.01 hereof shall be deemed to be a grant by
the Depositor to the Trustee of a security interest in all of the Depositor's
right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and all amounts payable
to the holders of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms thereof and
all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into
cash, instruments, securities or other property, including without limitation
all amounts, other than investment earnings, from time to time held or invested
in the Collection Account and the Distribution Account, whether in the form of
cash, instruments, securities or other property; (3) the obligations secured by
such security agreement shall be deemed to be all of the Depositor's obligations
under this Agreement, including the obligation to provide to the
Certificateholders
168
the benefits of this Agreement relating to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust
Fund; and (4) notifications to persons holding such property, and
acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property,
shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations
from, financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Trustee
for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law.
Accordingly, the Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee a security interest in
the Mortgage Loans and all other property described in clause (2) of the
preceding sentence, for the purpose of securing to the Trustee the performance
by the Depositor of the obligations described in clause (3) of the preceding
sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto intend the
conveyance pursuant to Section 2.01 to be a true, absolute and unconditional
sale of the Mortgage Loans and assets constituting the Trust Fund by the
Depositor to the Trustee.
Section 11.10. Third Party Rights.
The Certificate Insurer shall be a third-party beneficiary of
this Agreement to the same extent as if they were a party hereto, and each shall
have the right to enforce the provisions of this Agreement. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, provisions herein that refer to the "benefit" of
Certificateholders or the "interests" of the Certificateholders or actions "for
the benefit of" Certificateholders also include an implicit reference to the
benefits or interests of the Certificate Insurer with respect to the Insured
Certificates and to the extent a Certificate Insurer Default has not occurred
and is continuing.

qualification (other than in connection with (i) the initial transfer of any
such Certificate by the Depositor to an Affiliate of the Depositor (such
Affiliate status being certified to the Trustee by the Depositor), (ii) the
transfer of any such Certificate to the issuer under the Indenture or the
indenture trustee under the Indenture or (iii) a transfer of any such
Certificate from the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under
the Indenture to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor)under applicable
state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such
registration or qualification. In the event that such a transfer of this
Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification, the Trustee
shall require receipt of (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in
reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the
Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such
Holder's prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the
Agreement as Exhibit F-1, and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made without such registration or
qualification (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust
Fund or of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Servicer in their respective
capacities as such), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the
Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Holder's
prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is based. None of the
Depositor or the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify the Class of
Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other
securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement
to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or
qualification. Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate
shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor and the Servicer
against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not
made in accordance with such federal and state laws.
No transfer of this Certificate to a Plan subject to ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf
of any such Plan or any Person using "Plan Assets" to acquire this Certificate
shall be made except in accordance with Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement.
The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without
coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified
in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are
A-11-4
exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations
evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder
surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for any such registration
of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Trustee may require payment of
a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the
Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.
The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created
thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts
held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement
following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any
advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property
remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the
Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all
the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.
The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the
Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property
acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in
the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than
10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the
Cut-off Date.
The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the
Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by
the Trustee, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any

writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in
authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest will
be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is
made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and an effective registration or
qualification (other than in connection with (i) the initial transfer of any
such Certificate by the Depositor to an Affiliate of the Depositor (such
Affiliate status being certified to the Trustee by the Depositor), (ii) the
transfer of any such Certificate to the issuer under the Indenture or the
indenture trustee under the Indenture or (iii) a transfer of any such
Certificate from the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under
the Indenture to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor)under applicable
state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such
registration or qualification. In the event that such a transfer of this
Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification, the Trustee
shall require receipt of (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in
reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the
Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such
Holder's prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the
Agreement as Exhibit F-1, and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made without such registration or
qualification (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust
Fund or of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Servicer in their respective
capacities as such), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the
Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Holder's
prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is based. None of the
Depositor or the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify the Class of
Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other
securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement
to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or
qualification. Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate
shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor and the Servicer
against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not
made in accordance with such federal and state laws.
No transfer of this Certificate to a Plan subject to ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf
of any such Plan or any Person using "Plan Assets" to acquire this Certificate
shall be made except in accordance with Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement.
The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without
coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified
in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are
A-13-4
exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations
evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder
surrendering the same. No service charge will be made for any such registration
of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Trustee may require payment of
a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the
Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.
The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created
thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts
held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement
following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any
advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property
remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the
Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all
the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.
The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the
Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property
acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in
the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than
10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the
Cut-off Date.
The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the
Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by
the Trustee, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any
benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is
made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and an effective registration or
qualification (other than in connection with (i) the initial transfer of any
such Certificate by the Depositor to an Affiliate of the Depositor (such
Affiliate status being certified to the Trustee by the Depositor), (ii) the
transfer of any such Certificate to the issuer under the Indenture or the
indenture trustee under the Indenture or (iii) a transfer of any such
Certificate from the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under
the Indenture to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor)under applicable
state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such
registration or qualification. In the event that such a transfer of this
Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification, the Trustee
shall require receipt of (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in
reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the
Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such
Holder's prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the
Agreement as Exhibit F-1, and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made without such registration or
qualification (which
A-15-4
Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the
Depositor, the Trustee or the Servicer in their respective capacities as such),
together with copies of the written certification(s) of the Holder of the
Certificate desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Holder's prospective
transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is based. None of the Depositor or
the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify the Class of Certificates
specified on the face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other securities law or
to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the
transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification. Any Holder
desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate shall be required to indemnify
the Trustee, the Depositor and the Servicer against any liability that may
result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such
federal and state laws.
No transfer of this Certificate to a Plan subject to ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf
of any such Plan or any Person using "Plan Assets" to acquire this Certificate
shall be made except in accordance with Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement.
The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without
coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified
in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new
Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same
aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange
of Certificates, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the
Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.
The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created
thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts
held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement
following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any
advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property
remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the
Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all
the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.
The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the
Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property
acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in
the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than
10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the
Cut-off Date.
The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the

aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange
of Certificates, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
Prior to registration of any transfer, sale or other disposition of
this Certificate, the proposed transferee shall provide to the Trustee (i) an
affidavit to the effect that such transferee is any Person other than a
Disqualified Organization or the agent (including a broker, nominee or
middleman) of a Disqualified Organization, and (ii) a certificate that
acknowledges that (A) the Class R Certificates have been designated as a
residual interest in a REMIC, (B) it will include in its income a PRO RATA share
of the net income of the Trust Fund and that such income may be an "excess
inclusion," as defined in the Code, that, with certain exceptions, cannot be
offset by other losses or benefits from any tax exemption, and (C) it expects to
have the financial means to satisfy all of its tax obligations including those
relating to holding the Class R Certificates. Notwithstanding the registration
in the Certificate Register of any transfer, sale or other disposition of this
Certificate to a Disqualified Organization or an agent (including a broker,
nominee or middleman) of a Disqualified Organization, such registration shall be
deemed to be of no legal force or effect whatsoever and such Person shall not be
deemed to be a Certificateholder for any purpose, including, but not limited to,
the receipt of distributions in respect of this Certificate.
The Holder of this Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, shall be
deemed to have consented to the provisions of Section 5.02 of the Agreement and
to any amendment of the Agreement deemed necessary by counsel of the Depositor
to ensure that the transfer of this Certificate to any Person other than a
Permitted Transferee or any other Person will not cause the Trust Fund to cease
to qualify as a REMIC or cause the imposition of a tax upon the REMIC.
The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the
Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.
A-17-5
The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created
thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts
held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement
following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any
advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property
remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the
Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all
the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.
The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the
Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property
acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in
the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than
10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the
Cut-off Date.
The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the
Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by
the Trustee, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any
benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

loans (the "Mortgage Loans") formed and sold by
CITIGROUP MORTGAGE LOAN TRUST INC.
THIS CERTIFICATE DOES NOT REPRESENT AN OBLIGATION OF OR INTEREST IN
CITIGROUP MORTGAGE LOAN TRUST INC., THE SERVICER, THE TRUSTEE OR ANY OF
THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES. NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE UNDERLYING
MORTGAGE LOANS ARE GUARANTEED BY ANY AGENCY OR INSTRUMENTALITY OF THE
UNITED STATES.
This certifies that Xxx Xxxxxxxx is the registered owner of a
Percentage Interest (as specified above) in that certain beneficial ownership
interest evidenced by all the Certificates of the Class to which this
Certificate belongs created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated
as specified above (the "Agreement"), among Citigroup Mortgage Loan Trust Inc.
(hereinafter called the "Depositor," which term includes any successor entity
under the Agreement), the Servicer, ResMAE Mortgage Corporation (the "Interim
Servicer") and the Trustee, a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of
which is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized
terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate
is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the
Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the
acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made
on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the
Business Day immediately following (a "Distribution Date"), commencing on the
First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product
of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required
to be distributed to the Holders of Class R-X Certificates on such Distribution
Date pursuant to the Agreement.
All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the
Agreement will be made or caused to be made by the Trustee by wire transfer in
immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if
such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business
Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or
otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person
entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate
Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate
will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such
distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the
office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the
Agreement.
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as Asset Backed Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified on
the face hereof (herein called
A-18-3
the "Certificates") and representing a Percentage Interest in the Class of
Certificates specified on the face hereof.
The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain
collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more
specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the
Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account
may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to
Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or
certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders
under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee
with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the
Voting Rights. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be
conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this
Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in
exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is
made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in
certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the
Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the
Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of
transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Trustee as provided in the
Agreement, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below
or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee duly
executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in
writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in
authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest will
be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is
made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and an effective registration or
qualification (other than in connection with (i) the initial transfer of any
such Certificate by the Depositor to an Affiliate of the Depositor (such
Affiliate status being certified to the Trustee by the Depositor), (ii) the
transfer of any such Certificate to the issuer under the Indenture or the
indenture trustee under the Indenture or (iii) a transfer of any such
Certificate from the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under
the Indenture to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor) under
applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not
require such registration or qualification. In the event that such a transfer of
this Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification, the
Trustee shall require receipt of (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made
in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the
Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such
Holder's prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the
Agreement as Exhibit F-1, and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made without such registration or
qualification (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust
Fund or of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Servicer in their respective
capacities as such), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the
Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Holder's
A-18-4
prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is based. None of the
Depositor or the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify the Class of
Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other
securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement
to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or
qualification. Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate
shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor and the Servicer
against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not
made in accordance with such federal and state laws.
No transfer of this Certificate to a Plan subject to ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf
of any such Plan or any Person using "Plan Assets" to acquire this Certificate
shall be made except in accordance with Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement.
The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without
coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified
in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new
Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same
aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange
of Certificates, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
Prior to registration of any transfer, sale or other disposition of
this Certificate, the proposed transferee shall provide to the Trustee (i) an
affidavit to the effect that such transferee is any Person other than a
Disqualified Organization or the agent (including a broker, nominee or
middleman) of a Disqualified Organization, and (ii) a certificate that
acknowledges that (A) the Class R-X Certificates have been designated as a
residual interest in a REMIC, (B) it will include in its income a PRO RATA share
of the net income of the Trust Fund and that such income may be an "excess
inclusion," as defined in the Code, that, with certain exceptions, cannot be
offset by other losses or benefits from any tax exemption, and (C) it expects to
have the financial means to satisfy all of its tax obligations including those
relating to holding the Class R-X Certificates. Notwithstanding the registration
in the Certificate Register of any transfer, sale or other disposition of this
Certificate to a Disqualified Organization or an agent (including a broker,
nominee or middleman) of a Disqualified Organization, such registration shall be
deemed to be of no legal force or effect whatsoever and such Person shall not be
deemed to be a Certificateholder for any purpose, including, but not limited to,
the receipt of distributions in respect of this Certificate.
The Holder of this Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, shall be
deemed to have consented to the provisions of Section 5.02 of the Agreement and
to any amendment of the Agreement deemed necessary by counsel of the Depositor
to ensure that the transfer of this Certificate to any Person other than a
Permitted Transferee or any other Person will not cause the Trust Fund to cease
to qualify as a REMIC or cause the imposition of a tax upon the REMIC.
The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the
Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.
A-18-5
The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created
thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts
held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement
following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any
advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property
remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the

Ladies and Gentlemen:
In connection with the transfer by ________________ (the
"Transferor") to ________________ (the "Transferee") of the captioned
pass-through certificates (the "Certificates"), the Transferor hereby certifies
as follows:
Neither the Transferor nor anyone acting on its behalf has (a)
offered, pledged, sold, disposed of or otherwise transferred any Certificate,
any interest in any Certificate or any other similar security to any person in
any manner, (b) has solicited any offer to buy or to accept a pledge,
disposition or other transfer of any Certificate, any interest in any

otherwise approached or negotiated with respect to any Certificate, any interest
in any Certificate or any other similar security with any person in any manner,
(d) has made any general solicitation by means of general advertising or in any

subclauses (a) through (e) above) would constitute a distribution of the
Certificates under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), or
would render the disposition of any Certificate a violation of Section 5 of the
1933 Act or any state securities law or would require registration or

authorized or will it authorize any person to act, in any manner set forth in
the foregoing sentence with respect to any Certificate. The Transferor will not

__________________________, being duly sworn, deposes, represents
and warrants as follows:
1. I am a ______________________ of ____________________________
(the "Owner") acorporation duly organized and existing under the laws of
______________, the record owner of Citigroup Mortgage Loan Trust Inc., Series
2004-RES1, Asset Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Class R Certificates, (the
"Class R Certificates"), on behalf of whom I make this affidavit and agreement.
Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the respective meanings
assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement pursuant to which the
Class R Certificates were issued.
2. The Owner (i) is and will be a "Permitted Transferee" as of
____________, 20__ and (ii) is acquiring the Class R Certificates for its own
account or for the account of another Owner from which it has received an
affidavit in substantially the same form as this affidavit. A "Permitted
Transferee" is any person other than a "disqualified organization" or a
possession of the United States. For this purpose, a "disqualified organization"
means the United States, any state or political subdivision thereof, any agency
or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other than an instrumentality all of
the activities of which are subject to tax and, except for the Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation, a majority of whose board of directors is not selected by
any such governmental entity) or any foreign government, international
organization or any agency or instrumentality of such foreign government or
organization, any rural electric or telephone cooperative, or any organization
(other than certain farmers' cooperatives) that is generally exempt from federal
income tax unless such organization is subject to the tax on unrelated business
taxable income.
3. The Owner is aware (i) of the tax that would be imposed on
transfers of the Class R Certificates to disqualified organizations under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 that applies to all transfers of the Class R
Certificates after March 31, 1988; (ii) that such tax would be on the transferor
or, if such transfer is through an agent (which person includes a broker,
nominee or middleman) for a non-Permitted Transferee, on the agent; (iii) that
the person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability for the
tax if the transferee furnishes to such person an affidavit that the transferee
is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of transfer, such person does not
have actual knowledge that the affidavit is false; and (iv) that each of the
Class R Certificates may be a "noneconomic residual interest" within the meaning
of proposed Treasury regulations promulgated under the Code and that the
transferor of a "noneconomic residual interest" will remain liable for any taxes
due with respect to the income on such residual interest, unless no significant
purpose of the transfer is to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

interest in such entity. (For this purpose, a "pass-through entity" includes a
regulated investment company, a real estate investment trust or common trust
fund, a partnership, trust or estate, and certain cooperatives.)
5. The Owner is aware that the Trustee will not register the
transfer of any Class R Certificate unless the transferee, or the transferee's

it will not consummate any such transfer if it knows or believes that any of the
representations contained in such affidavit and agreement are false.
6. The Owner consents to any additional restrictions or arrangements
that shall be deemed necessary upon advice of counsel to constitute a reasonable
arrangement to ensure that the Class R Certificates will only be owned, directly
or indirectly, by an Owner that is a Permitted Transferee.
7. The Owner's taxpayer identification number is _________________.
8. The Owner has reviewed the restrictions set forth on the face of
the Class R Certificates and the provisions of Section 5.02(d) of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement under which the Class R Certificates were issued (in
particular, clauses (iii)(A) and (iii)(B) of Section 5.02(d) which authorize the
Trustee to deliver payments to a person other than the Owner and negotiate a
mandatory sale by the Trustee in the event that the Owner holds such Certificate
in violation of Section 5.02(d)); and that the Owner expressly agrees to be
bound by and to comply with such restrictions and provisions.
9. The Owner is not acquiring and will not transfer the Class R
Certificates in order to impede the assessment or collection of any tax.
10. The Owner anticipates that it will, so long as it holds the
Class R Certificates, have sufficient assets to pay any taxes owed by the holder
of such Class R Certificates, and hereby represents to and for the benefit of
the person from whom it acquired the Class R Certificates that the Owner intends
to pay taxes associated with holding such Class R Certificates as they become
due, fully understanding that it may incur tax liabilities in excess of any cash
flows generated by the Class R Certificates.

or subject to a bankruptcy proceeding for so long as it holds the Class R
Certificates.

Certificates remain outstanding.
13. The Owner is not acquiring the Class R Certificates with the
intent to transfer the Class R Certificates to any person or entity that will
not have sufficient assets to pay any taxes owed by the holder of such Class R
Certificates, or that may become insolvent or subject to a bankruptcy
proceeding, for so long as the Class R Certificates remain outstanding.
14. The Owner will, in connection with any transfer that it makes of
the Class R Certificates, obtain from its transferee the representations
required by Section 5.02(d) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement under which

consummate any such transfer if it knows, or knows facts that should lead it to
believe, that any such representations are false.

the Class R Certificates, deliver to the Trustee an affidavit, which represents
and warrants that it is not transferring the Class R Certificates to impede the
assessment or collection of any tax and that it has no actual knowledge that the
proposed transferee: (i) has insufficient assets to pay any taxes owed by such
transferee as holder of the Class R Certificates; (ii) may become insolvent or
subject to a bankruptcy proceeding for so long as the Class R Certificates
remains outstanding; and (iii) is not a "Permitted Transferee".
16. The Owner is a citizen or resident of the United States, a
corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized in, or under the
laws of, the United States or any political subdivision thereof, or an estate or
trust whose income from sources without the United States may be included in
gross income for United States federal income tax purposes regardless of its
connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States.
17. The Owner of the Class R Certificate, hereby agrees that in the
event that the Trust Fund created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is
terminated pursuant to Section 9.01 thereof, the undersigned shall assign and
transfer to the Holders of the Class CE Certificates (with respect to a
termination of REMIC I) any amounts in excess of par received in connection with
such termination. Accordingly, in the event of such termination, the Trustee is
hereby authorized to withhold any such amounts in excess of par and to pay such
amounts directly to the Holders of the Class CE Certificates. This agreement
shall bind and be enforceable against any successor, transferee or assigned of
the undersigned in the Class R Certificate. In connection with any transfer of
the Class R Certificate, the Owner shall obtain an agreement substantially
similar to this clause from any subsequent owner.
