W I T N E S S E T H:
In consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the
parties hereto agree as follows:
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
The Trustee shall elect that four segregated asset pools within the
Trust Fund (exclusive of (i) the Prepayment Charges, (ii) the Interest Rate Swap
Agreement and the Cap Agreement, (iii) the Supplemental Interest Account, (iv)
the Excess Reserve Fund Account, and (v) the right of the LIBOR Certificates to
receive Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts and, without duplication, Upper Tier
Carry Forward Amounts, subject to the obligation to pay Class IO Shortfalls) be
treated for federal income tax purposes as comprising four REMICs (each, a
"Trust REMIC" or, in the alternative, Pooling Tier REMIC-1, Pooling Tier
REMIC-2, the Lower Tier REMIC and the Upper Tier REMIC, respectively). Each
Class of Certificates (other than the Class P Certificates and the Residual
Certificates), other than the right of each Class of LIBOR Certificates to
receive Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts and, without duplication, Upper Tier
Carry Forward Amounts and the obligation to pay Class IO Shortfalls and the
right of the Class X Certificates to receive payments from the Interest Rate
Swap Agreement, the Cap Agreement and the right to receive Class IO Shortfalls,
represents ownership of a regular interest in the Upper Tier REMIC for purposes
of the REMIC Provisions. The Class R-I Certificates represent ownership of the
sole class of residual interest in Pooling Tier REMIC-1 for purposes of the
REMIC Provisions. The Class R-II Certificates represent ownership of the sole
class of residual interest in each of Pooling Tier REMIC-2, the Lower Tier REMIC
and the Upper Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Startup Day
for each Trust REMIC is the Closing Date. The latest possible maturity date for
each regular interest is the latest date referenced in Section 2.06.
The Upper Tier REMIC shall hold as assets the several classes of
uncertificated Lower Tier REMIC Regular Interests, set out below. The Lower Tier
REMIC shall hold as assets the several classes of uncertificated Pooling Tier
REMIC-2 Regular Interests. Pooling Tier REMIC-2 shall hold as assets the several
classes of uncertificated Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Regular Interests. Pooling Tier
REMIC-1 shall hold as assets the assets of the Trust Fund (exclusive of (i) the
Prepayment Premiums, (ii) the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and the Cap
Agreement, (iii) the Supplemental Interest Account, (iv) the Excess Reserve Fund
Account, (v) the Cap Agreement and (vi) the right of the LIBOR Certificates to
receive Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts and, without duplication, Upper Tier
Carry Forward Amounts, subject to the obligation to pay Class IO Shortfalls).
For federal income tax purposes, the Class P Certificates represent
beneficial ownership of the Prepayment Charges, each Class of LIBOR Certificates
represents beneficial ownership of a regular interest in the Upper Tier REMIC
and the right to receive Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts and, without
duplication, Upper Tier Carry Forward Amounts, subject to the obligation to pay
Class IO Shortfalls, and the Class X Certificates represent beneficial ownership
of two regular interests in the Upper Tier REMIC, the Excess Reserve Fund
Account, the Supplemental Interest Account, the Interest Rate Swap Agreement,
the Cap Agreement and the right to receive Class IO Shortfalls, which portions
of the Trust Fund shall be treated as a grantor trust.
Pooling Tier REMIC-1
Pooling Tier REMIC-1 shall issue the following interests in Pooling
Tier REMIC-1, and each such interest, other than the Class PT1-R Interest, is
hereby designated as a regular interest in the Pooling Tier REMIC-1. Pooling
Tier REMIC-1 shall also issue the Class R-I Certificates. The Class PT1-R
Interest is hereby designated as the sole class of residual interest in Pooling
Tier REMIC-1.

(1) For any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period), this
Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Regular Interest shall bear interest at a per annum
rate (its "Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Interest Rate") equal to the Pooling Tier
REMIC-1 Net WAC Rate.
(2) For any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period), this
Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Regular Interest shall bear interest at a per annum
rate (its "Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Interest Rate") equal to the product of
(i) 2 and (ii) the Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Net WAC Rate, subject to a maximum
rate of 10.55%.
(3) For any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period), this
Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Regular Interest shall bear interest at a per annum
rate (its "Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Interest Rate") equal to the excess, if
any, of (A) the product of (i) 2 and (ii) the Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Net WAC
Rate over (B) 10.55%.
(4) The Class PT1-R Interest shall not have a principal balance and shall not
bear interest.
On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall first pay from the

Trust for such Distribution Date. Such expense, other than Servicing Fees and
Trustee Fees, shall be allocated in the same manner as Realized Losses.
On each Distribution Date, the interest distributable in respect of
the Mortgage Loans for such Distribution Date shall be deemed to be distributed
to the Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Regular Interests at the rates shown above.
On each Distribution Date, Realized Losses, Subsequent Recoveries
and payments of principal in respect of the Mortgage Loans (including, for the
first Distribution Date only, the Closing Date Deposit Amount) shall be
allocated to the outstanding Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Regular Interest with the
lowest numerical denomination until the Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Principal Amount of
such interest or interests, as the case may be, is reduced to zero, provided
that, with respect to Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Regular Interests with the same
numerical denomination, such Realized Losses and payments of principal shall be
allocated pro rata between such Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Regular Interests.
Pooling Tier REMIC-2
Pooling Tier REMIC-2 shall issue the following interests in Pooling
Tier REMIC-2, and each such interest, other than the Class PT2-R Interest, is
hereby designated as a regular interest in Pooling Tier REMIC-2. The Class PT2-R
Interest is hereby designated as the sole class of residual interest in Pooling
Tier REMIC-2 and shall be represented by the Class R-II Certificates.

(1) For any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period), this
Pooling Tier REMIC-2 Regular Interest shall bear interest at a per annum
rate (its "Pooling Tier REMIC-2 Interest Rate") equal to the Pooling Tier
REMIC-1 Net I WAC Rate.
(2) For any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period), this
Pooling Tier REMIC-2 Regular Interest shall bear interest at a per annum
rate (its "Pooling Tier REMIC-2 Interest Rate") equal to the weighted
average of the Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Interest Rates on the Pooling Tier
REMIC-1 Regular Interests and having an "A" in their class designation,
provided that, on each Distribution Date on which interest is
distributable on the Corresponding Pooling Tier REMIC-2 IO Interest, this
Pooling Tier REMIC-2 Regular Interest shall bear interest at a per annum
rate equal to Swap LIBOR subject to a maximum rate equal to the weighted
average of the Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Interest Rates on the Pooling Tier
REMIC-1 Regular Interests and having an "A" in their class designation.
(3) For any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period), this
Pooling Tier REMIC-2 Regular Interest shall bear interest at a per annum
rate (its "Pooling Tier REMIC-2 Interest Rate") equal to the weighted
average of the Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Interest Rates on the Pooling Tier
REMIC-1 Regular Interests and having a "B" in their class designation.
(4) Each Pooling Tier REMIC-2 IO Interest is an interest-only interest and
does not have a principal balance but has a notional balance ("Pooling
Tier REMIC-2 IO Notional Balance") equal to the Pooling Tier REMIC-1
Principal Amount of the Corresponding Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Regular
Interest. From the Closing Date through and including the Corresponding
Scheduled Crossover Distribution Date, each Pooling Tier REMIC-2 IO
Interest shall be entitled to receive interest that accrues on the
Corresponding Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Regular Interest at a rate equal to the
excess, if any, of (i) the Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Interest Rate for the
Corresponding Pooling Tier REMIC-1 Regular Interest over (ii) Swap LIBOR.
After the related Corresponding Scheduled Crossover Distribution Date, the
Pooling Tier REMIC-2 IO Interest shall not accrue interest.
(5) The Class PT2-R Interest shall not have a principal balance and shall not
bear interest.
On each Distribution Date, the interest distributable in respect of
the Mortgage Loans for such Distribution Date shall be distributed to the
Pooling Tier REMIC-2 Regular Interests at the Pooling Tier REMIC-2 Interest
Rates shown above.
On each Distribution Date, Realized Losses, Subsequent Recoveries
and payments of principal in respect of the Mortgage Loans (including, for the
first Distribution Date only, the Closing Date Deposit Amount) shall be
allocated to the then outstanding Pooling Tier REMIC-2 Regular Interests (other
than the Pooling Tier REMIC-2 IO Interests) with the lowest numerical
denomination until the Pooling Tier REMIC-2 Principal Amount of such interest or
interests, as the case may be, is reduced to zero, provided that, for Pooling
Tier REMIC-2 Regular Interests Mortgage Loans with the same numerical
denomination, such Realized Losses, Subsequent Recoveries and payments of
principal shall be allocated pro rata between such Pooling Tier REMIC-2 Regular
Interests.
Lower Tier REMIC
The Lower Tier REMIC shall issue the following interests, and each
such interest, other than the Class LT-R Interest, is hereby designated as a
regular interest in the Lower Tier REMIC. The Class LT-R Interest is hereby
designated as the sole class of residual interest in the Lower Tier REMIC and
shall be represented by the Class R-II Certificates.

(1) The interest rate with respect to any Distribution Date for these
interests is a per annum variable rate equal to the Lower Tier REMIC Net
WAC Rate.
(2) This Lower Tier Regular Interest is an interest-only interest and does not
have a Lower Tier REMIC Principal Amount. On each Distribution Date, this
Lower Tier Regular Interest shall be entitled to receive all interest
distributable on the Pooling Tier REMIC-2 IO Interests.
(3) The Class LT-R Interest is the sole class of residual interest in the
Lower Tier REMIC and it does not have a principal amount or an interest
rate.
Each Lower Tier REMIC Regular Interest is hereby designated as a
regular interest in the Lower Tier REMIC. The Class LT-A-1, Class LT-A-2, Class
LT-A-3, Class LT-M-1, Class LT-M-2, Class LT-M-3, Class LT-M-4, Class LT-M-5,
Class LT-B-1, Class LT-B-2, Class LT-B-3 and Class LT-B-4 Interests are hereby
designated the LT Accretion Directed Classes (the "LT Accretion Directed
Classes").
On each Distribution Date, 50% of the increase in the Subordinated
Amount shall be payable as a reduction of the Lower Tier REMIC Principal Amount
of the LT Accretion Directed Classes (each such Class will be reduced by an
amount equal to 50% of any increase in the Subordinated Amount that is
attributable to a reduction in the Class Certificate Balance of its
Corresponding Class) and shall be accrued and added to the Lower Tier REMIC
Principal Amount of the Class LT-Accrual Interest. On each Distribution Date,
the increase in the Lower Tier REMIC Principal Amount of the Class LT-Accrual
Interest may not exceed interest accruals for such Distribution Date for the
Class LT-Accrual Interest. All payments of scheduled principal and prepayments
of principal generated by the Mortgage Loans (including, for the first
Distribution Date only, the Closing Date Deposit Amount) and all Subsequent
Recoveries allocable to principal shall be allocated (i) 50% to the Class
LT-Accrual Interest, and (ii) 50% to the LT Accretion Directed Classes (such
principal payments and Subsequent Recoveries shall be allocated among such LT
Accretion Directed Classes in an amount equal to 50% of the principal amounts
and Subsequent Recoveries allocated to their respective Corresponding Classes),
until paid in full. Notwithstanding the above, principal payments allocated to
the Class X Interest that result in the reduction in the Subordinated Amount
shall be allocated to the Class LT-Accrual Interest (until paid in full).
Reductions to Lower Tier REMIC Principal Amounts as a result of
Realized Losses and increases in Lower Tier REMIC Principal Amounts as a result
of Subsequent Recoveries shall be applied so that after all distributions have
been made on each Distribution Date (i) the Lower Tier REMIC Principal Amount of
each LT Accretion Directed Class is equal to 50% of the Class Certificate
Balance of its Corresponding Class, and (ii) the Class LT-Accrual Interest is
equal to 50% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans
plus 50% of the Subordinated Amount.
Upper Tier REMIC
The Upper Tier REMIC shall issue the following classes of Upper Tier
REMIC Regular Interests and each such interest, other than the Class UT-R
Interest, is hereby designated as a regular interest in the Upper Tier REMIC.
The Class UT-R Interest is hereby designated as the sole class of residual
interests in the Upper Tier REMIC and shall be represented by the Class R-II
Certificates.

(1) For any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period), this
interest shall bear interest at the lesser of (i) the Pass-Through Rate
(determined without regard to the Net WAC Rate Cap) for the Corresponding
Class of Certificates and (ii) the Upper Tier REMIC Net WAC Rate.
(2) This interest is an interest-only interest and does not have a principal
balance. On each Distribution Date, the Class IO Interest shall be
entitled to receive all interest distributable on the Class LT-IO
Interest. This interest shall be beneficially owned by the holders of the
Class X Certificates and shall be held as an asset of the Supplemental
Interest Account.
(3) The Class X Interest has an initial principal balance of $18,980,119 but
it will not accrue interest on such balance but will accrue interest on a
notional principal balance. As of any Distribution Date, the Class X
Interest shall have a notional principal balance equal to the aggregate of
the Lower Tier Principal Amounts of the Lower Tier REMIC Regular Interests
(other than the Class LT-IO Interest) as of the first day of the related
Interest Accrual Period. With respect to any Interest Accrual Period, the
Class X Interest shall bear interest at a rate equal to the excess, if
any, of the Lower Tier REMIC Net WAC Rate over the product of (i) 2 and
(ii) the weighted average Lower Tier REMIC Interest Rate of the Lower Tier
REMIC Regular Interests (other than Class LT-IO Interests), where the
Lower Tier REMIC Interest Rate on the Class LT-Accrual Interest is subject
to a cap equal to zero and each LT-Accretion Directed Class is subject to
a cap equal to the Upper Tier Interest Rate on its Corresponding Class of
Upper Tier Regular Interest. With respect to any Distribution Date,
interest that so accrues on the notional principal balance of the Class X
Interest shall be deferred in an amount equal to any increase in the
Subordinated Amount on such Distribution Date. Such deferred interest
shall not itself bear interest.
(4) The Class UT-R Interest does not have an interest rate or a principal
balance.
On each Distribution Date, interest distributable in respect of the
Lower Tier Interests for such Distribution Date shall be deemed to be
distributed on the interests in the Upper Tier REMIC at the rates shown above,
provided that the Class IO Interest shall be entitled to receive interest before
any other interest in the Upper Tier REMIC.
On each Distribution Date, all Realized Losses, Subsequent
Recoveries and all payments of principal shall be allocated to the Upper Tier
Interests until the outstanding principal balance of each such interest equals
the outstanding Class Certificate Balance of the Corresponding Class of
Certificates as of such Distribution Date.

(1) The Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 Certificates will bear interest
during each Interest Accrual Period at a per annum rate equal to the
lesser of (i) LIBOR plus the applicable Pass-Through Margin and (ii) the
Net WAC Rate Cap.
(2) The Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5, Class B-1,
Class B-2, Class B-3 and Class B-4 Certificates will bear interest during
each Interest Accrual Period at a per annum rate equal to the lesser of
(i) LIBOR plus the applicable Pass-Through Margin and (ii) Net WAC Rate
Cap.
(3) The Class X Certificates will represent beneficial ownership of the Class
X Interest, the Class IO Interest, the right to receive Class IO
Shortfalls, the Cap Agreement, the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, amounts
in the Supplemental Interest Account, subject to the obligation to pay Net
Swap Payments to the Swap Provider and Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts
and, without duplication, Upper Tier Carry Forward Amounts to the LIBOR
Certificates and amounts in the Excess Reserve Fund Account, subject to
the obligation to make payments from the Excess Reserve Fund Account in
respect of Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts to the LIBOR Certificates. For
federal income tax purposes, the Trustee will treat a Class X
Certificateholder's obligation to make payments to the LIBOR Certificates
of Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts from the Excess Reserve Fund Account
and the Supplemental Interest Account and, without duplication, Upper Tier
Carry Forward Amounts from the Supplemental Interest Account and the right
to receive Class IO Shortfalls as payments made pursuant to a notional
principal contract between the Class X Certificateholders and the holder
of each Class of LIBOR Certificates. Such rights of the Class X
Certificateholders and LIBOR Certificateholders shall be treated as held
in a portion of the Trust Fund that is treated as a grantor trust under
subpart E, Part I of subchapter J of the Code. The Class X Certificates do
not have a Class Certificate Balance.
(4) The Class R-I Certificates do not have a principal balance or an interest
rate. The Class R-I Certificates represent the residual interest in
Pooling Tier REMIC-1.
(5) The Class R-II Certificates do not have a principal balance or an interest
rate. The Class R-II Certificates represent ownership of the Class PT2-R
Interest, the Class LT-R Interest and the Class UT-R Interest.
(6) Each of these Certificates will represent not only the ownership of the
Corresponding Class of Upper Tier REMIC Regular Interest but also the
right to receive payments from the Excess Reserve Fund Account and
Supplemental Interest Account in respect of any Basis Risk Carry Forward
Amounts and, without duplication, from the Supplemental Interest Account
in respect of Upper Tier Carry Forward Amounts. Each of these Certificates
will also be subject to the obligation to pay Class IO Shortfalls as
described in Section 8.13. For federal income tax purposes, any amount
distributed on the LIBOR Certificates on any such Distribution Date in
excess of the amount distributable on their Corresponding Class of Upper
Tier Regular Interest on such Distribution Date shall be treated as having
been paid from the Excess Reserve Fund Account or the Supplemental
Interest Account, as applicable, and any amount distributable on such
Corresponding Class of Upper Tier Regular Interest on such Distribution
Date in excess of the amount distributable on the Corresponding Class of
Certificates on such Distribution Date shall be treated as having been
paid to the Supplemental Interest Account, all pursuant to, and as further
provided in Section 8.13. For federal income tax purposes, the Trustee
will treat a LIBOR Certificateholder's right to receive payments from the
Excess Reserve Fund Account and Supplemental Interest Account subject to
the obligation to pay Class IO Shortfalls as payments made pursuant to a
notional principal contract between the Class X Certificateholders and
each Class of LIBOR Certificates.
The minimum denomination for each Class of Certificates, other than
the Class P and Class X Certificates and the Residual Certificates, will be
$25,000 with integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof except that one
Certificate in each Class may be issued in a different amount. The minimum
denomination for each of the Class P and Class X Certificates will be a 1%
Percentage Interest in such Class, and the minimum denomination for the Residual
Certificates shall be 100% Percentage Interest in such Class.
It is expected that each Class of Certificates will receive its
final distribution on or prior to the applicable Final Scheduled Distribution
Date.

Mortgage has been delivered for recordation or because such Mortgage has
been lost or because such public recording office retains the original
recorded Mortgage, the Responsible Party shall deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Custodian a photocopy of such Mortgage, together with (A)

assignment has not been returned from the applicable recording office or
has been lost or if such public recording office retains the original
recorded assignments of Mortgage, the Responsible Party shall deliver or
cause to be delivered a photocopy of such intervening assignment, together
with (A) in the case of a delay caused by the public recording office, an

escrow company, a title company or a closing attorney stating that such
intervening assignment of Mortgage has been dispatched to the appropriate
public recording office for recordation and that such original recorded
intervening assignment of Mortgage or a copy of such intervening

office to be a true and complete copy of the original recorded intervening
assignment of Mortgage will be promptly delivered to the Custodian upon

To the extent not previously delivered to the Sponsor pursuant to
the Purchase Agreement, the Responsible Party shall promptly upon receipt from
the respective recording office cause to be delivered to the Custodian the
original recorded document described in (iii), (iv) and (vi) above.
From time to time, the Responsible Party, the Depositor or the
Servicer, as applicable, shall forward to the Custodian, additional original
documents, additional documents evidencing an assumption, modification,

following the later of the Closing Date and the date of receipt by the Servicer
of the complete recording information for a Mortgage, the Servicer shall
promptly submit or cause to be submitted for recording, at the expense of the
Responsible Party and at no expense to the Trust Fund, the Custodian, the
Servicer or the Depositor, in the appropriate public office for real property

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, for administrative convenience and
facilitation of servicing and to reduce closing costs, the Assignments of
Mortgage shall not be required to be completed and submitted for recording with
respect to any Mortgage Loan (i) if the Custodian, the Trustee and each Rating
Agency have received an Opinion of Counsel, satisfactory in form and substance
to the Custodian, the Trustee and each Rating Agency to the effect that the
recordation of such Assignments of Mortgage in any specific jurisdiction is not
necessary to protect the Trustee's interest in the related Mortgage Note, (ii)
if such Mortgage Loan is a MERS Designated Mortgage Loan or (iii) if the Rating
Agencies have each notified the Depositor and the Servicer in writing that not
recording any such Assignments of Mortgage would not cause the initial ratings
on any LIBOR Certificates to be downgraded or withdrawn; provided, however, that
the Servicer shall not be held responsible or liable for any loss that occurs
because an Assignment of Mortgage was not recorded, but only to the extent the
Servicer does not have prior knowledge of the act or omission that causes such
loss. Unless the Depositor gives the Servicer notice to the contrary, the
Depositor is deemed to have given the Servicer notice that the condition set
forth in clause (iii) above is applicable. In addition to the foregoing, the
Servicer shall cause each Assignment of Mortgage to be recorded in accordance
with Accepted Servicing Practices in order to convey, upon foreclosure, the
title of any Mortgaged Property to the Trust as set forth in Section 3.17
hereof. If the Assignment of Mortgage is to be recorded, the applicable Mortgage
shall be assigned by the Responsible Party, at the expense of the Responsible
Party to "Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee under the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement dated as of November 1, 2006, Securitized Asset Backed
Receivables LLC Trust 2006-WM3." In the event that any such Assignment of
Mortgage is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect therein, the
Responsible Party shall promptly cause to be delivered a substitute Assignment
of Mortgage to cure such defect and thereafter cause each such assignment to be
duly recorded at no expense to the Trust Fund.
On or prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor shall deliver to the
Trustee and the Custodian a copy of the Data Tape Information in electronic,
machine readable medium in a form mutually acceptable to the Depositor, the
Trustee and the Custodian. Within ten (10) Business Days of the Closing Date,
the Depositor shall deliver a copy of the complete Mortgage Loan Schedule to the
Custodian and the Trustee.
In the event that such original or copy of any document submitted
for recordation to the appropriate public recording office is not so delivered
to the Custodian within 180 days (or such other time period as may be required
by any Rating Agency) following the Closing Date, and in the event that the
Responsible Party does not cure such failure within 30 days of discovery or
receipt of written notification of such failure from the Depositor, the related
Mortgage Loan shall, upon the request of the Depositor, be repurchased by the
Responsible Party at the price and in the manner specified in Section 2.03. The
foregoing repurchase obligation shall not apply in the event that the
Responsible Party cannot deliver such original or copy of any document submitted
for recordation to the appropriate public recording office within the specified
period due to a delay caused by the recording office in the applicable
jurisdiction; provided, that the Responsible Party shall instead deliver a
recording receipt of such recording office or, if such recording receipt is not
available, an officer's certificate of an officer of the Responsible Party,
confirming that such document has been accepted for recording.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section
2.01, in those instances where the public recording office retains or loses the
original Mortgage or assignment after it has been recorded, the obligations of
the Responsible Party shall be deemed to have been satisfied upon delivery by
the Responsible Party to the Custodian, prior to the Closing Date of a copy of
such Mortgage or assignment, as the case may be, certified (such certification
to be an original thereof) by the public recording office to be a true and
complete copy of the recorded original thereof.
(c) The Depositor does hereby establish, pursuant to the further

remedied, the Responsible Party shall, at the Depositor's option as specified in
writing and provided to the Responsible Party, the Custodian and the Trustee,
(i) if such 30- or 60-day period, as applicable, expires prior to the second
anniversary of the Closing Date, remove such Mortgage Loan (a "Deleted Mortgage
Loan") from the Trust Fund and substitute in its place a Substitute Mortgage
Loan, in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section
2.03; or (ii) repurchase such Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price; provided,
however, that any such substitution pursuant to clause (i) above shall not be
effected prior to the delivery to the Custodian of a Request for Release
substantially in the form of Exhibit J, and the delivery of the Custodial File
to the Custodian for any such Substitute Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, a breach (i) which causes a Mortgage Loan not to constitute a
"qualified mortgage" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or
(ii) by the Responsible Party of any of the representations and warranties
identified as a Deemed Material and Adverse Representation on Schedule III, will
be deemed automatically to materially and adversely affect the value of such
Mortgage Loan and the interests of the Trustee and Certificateholders in such
Mortgage Loan. In the event that the Trustee receives notice from any party
discovering such a breach by the Responsible Party of any of the representations
and warranties identified as a Deemed Material and Adverse Representation on
Schedule III, the Trustee shall give notice of such breach to the Responsible
Party and request the Responsible Party to repurchase the Mortgage Loan at the
Repurchase Price within sixty (60) days of receipt by the Responsible Party of
such notice. The Responsible Party shall repurchase each such Mortgage Loan
within 60 days of the earlier of discovery or receipt of notice with respect to
each such Mortgage Loan. Within 90 days of the earlier of either discovery by or
notice to the Depositor of any breach of a representation or warranty set forth
in clause (a) or (b) of Schedule V hereto with respect to any Mortgage Loan that
is also a breach of the representation and warranty set forth in clause (g) or
(aaa), as applicable, of Schedule III, and the Responsible Party has not
repurchased such Mortgage Loan within the applicable time period for repurchase
set forth above, the Depositor shall repurchase such Mortgage Loan at the
Repurchase Price or substitute a Substitute Mortgage Loan for such Mortgage
Loan.
(e) With respect to any Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the
Responsible Party shall deliver to the Custodian the Mortgage Note, the
Mortgage, the related assignment of the Mortgage, and such other documents and
agreements as are required by Section 2.01, with the Mortgage Note endorsed and
the Mortgage assigned as required by Section 2.01. No substitution is permitted
to be made with respect to any Distribution Date after the end of the related
Prepayment Period. Scheduled Payments due with respect to Substitute Mortgage
Loans in the Due Period of substitution shall not be part of the Trust Fund and
will be retained by the Responsible Party on the next succeeding Distribution
Date. For the Due Period of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders
will include the Scheduled Payment due on any Deleted Mortgage Loan for such Due
Period and thereafter the Responsible Party shall be entitled to retain all
amounts received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan.
(f) The Servicer, based upon information provided by the Depositor
or the Responsible Party, shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule for the benefit
of the Certificateholders to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan
and the substitution of the Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and the Servicer
shall deliver the amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee and the
Custodian. Upon such substitution, the Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall
be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects, and the Responsible
Party shall be deemed to have made with respect to such Substitute Mortgage Loan
or Loans, as of the date of substitution, the representations and warranties
made pursuant to Section 2.03(b) with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Upon any
such substitution and the deposit to the Collection Account of the amount
required to be deposited therein in connection with such substitution as
described in the following paragraph, the Custodian shall release the Mortgage
File held for the benefit of the Certificateholders relating to such Deleted
Mortgage Loan to the Responsible Party and the Trustee shall execute and deliver
at the Responsible Party's written direction such instruments of transfer or
assignment prepared by the Responsible Party, in each case without recourse, as
shall be necessary to vest title in the Responsible Party, of the Trustee's
interest in any Deleted Mortgage Loan substituted for pursuant to this Section
2.03.
(g) For any month in which the Responsible Party substitutes one or
more Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the
Servicer will determine the amount (if any) by which the aggregate unpaid
principal balance of all such Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of
substitution is less than the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all such
Deleted Mortgage Loans. The amount of such shortage plus an amount equal to the
aggregate of any unreimbursed Advances with respect to such Deleted Mortgage
Loans (collectively, the "Substitution Adjustment Amount") shall be remitted by
the Responsible Party to the Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account on
or before the Distribution Account Deposit Date for the Distribution Date in the
month succeeding the calendar month during which the related Mortgage Loan
became required to be purchased or replaced hereunder.
(h) In addition to such repurchase or substitution obligation
referred to in Section 2.03(d), the Responsible Party shall indemnify the
Depositor, any of its Affiliates, the Servicer, the Trustee and the Trust and
hold such parties harmless against any losses, damages, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments
and other costs and expenses (including, without limitation, any taxes payable
by the Trust) resulting from any third party claim, demand, defense or assertion
based on or grounded upon, or resulting from, a breach by the Responsible Party
of any of its representations and warranties or obligations contained in this
Agreement. This indemnity shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
(i) In addition to such repurchase or substitution obligation
referred to in Section 2.03(d), the Depositor shall indemnify the Trustee and
the Trust and hold the Trustee and the Trust harmless against any losses,
damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and
related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, any taxes payable by the Trust) resulting from any third party
claim, demand, defense or assertion based on or grounded upon, or resulting
from, a breach by the Depositor of any of its representations and warranties or
obligations contained in this Agreement. This indemnity shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.
(j) The Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule for the
benefit of the Certificateholders to reflect the removal of such Deleted
Mortgage Loan and the Servicer shall deliver the amended Mortgage Loan Schedule
to the Trustee and the Custodian.
(k) In the event that a Mortgage Loan shall have been repurchased
pursuant to this Agreement or the Sponsor Representation Letter, the proceeds
from such repurchase shall be deposited by the Servicer in the Collection
Account pursuant to Section 3.10 on or before the Distribution Account Deposit
Date for the Distribution Date in the month following the month during which the
applicable Person became obligated to repurchase or replace such Mortgage Loan
and upon such deposit of the Repurchase Price, and receipt of a Request for
Release in the form of Exhibit J hereto, the Custodian shall release within two
Business Days the related Custodial File held for the benefit of the
Certificateholders to such Person as directed by the Servicer, and the Trustee
shall execute and deliver at such Person's written direction such instruments of
transfer or assignment prepared by such Person, in each case without recourse,
as shall be necessary to transfer title from the Trustee. In accordance with
Section 10.05(b), the Trustee shall promptly notify each Rating Agency of a
purchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.03.
It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Responsible
Party under this Agreement to cure, repurchase or substitute any Mortgage Loan
as to which a breach of a representation and warranty has occurred and is
continuing, together with any related indemnification obligations of the
Responsible Party set forth in Section 2.03(h), shall constitute the sole
remedies against such Person respecting such breach available to
Certificateholders, the Depositor and any of its Affiliates, or the Trustee on
their behalf.
It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Depositor
under this Agreement to cure, repurchase or substitute any Mortgage Loan as to
which a breach of a representation and warranty has occurred and is continuing,
together with any related indemnification obligations of the Depositor set forth
in Section 2.03(i), shall constitute the sole remedies against such Person
respecting such breach available to Certificateholders, the Trust, or the
Trustee on their behalf.
The provisions of this Section 2.03 shall survive delivery of the
respective Custodial Files to the Custodian.
Section 2.04 [Reserved].
Section 2.05 Execution and Delivery of Certificates. The Trustee
acknowledges the transfer and assignment to it of the Trust Fund and,
concurrently with such transfer and assignment, has executed and delivered to or
upon the order of the Depositor, the Certificates in authorized Denominations
evidencing directly or indirectly the entire ownership of the Trust Fund. The
Trustee agrees to hold the Trust Fund and exercise the rights referred to above
for the benefit of all present and future Holders of the Certificates.
Section 2.06 REMIC Matters. The Preliminary Statement sets forth the
designations for federal income tax purposes of all interests created hereby.
The "Startup Day" of each Trust REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions shall
be the Closing Date. The "latest possible maturity date" of the regular
interests in each Trust REMIC is the Distribution Date occurring in October
2036, which is the Distribution Date in the month following the latest Mortgage
Loan maturity date.
Amounts distributable to the Class X Certificates (prior to any
reduction for any Basis Risk Payment, Net Swap Payment or Swap Termination
Payment), exclusive of any amounts received from the Swap Provider, shall be
deemed paid from the Upper Tier REMIC in respect of the Class X Interest and the
Class IO Interest to the Holders of the Class X Certificates prior to
distribution of any Basis Risk Payments to the LIBOR Certificates or Net Swap
Payments or Swap Termination Payment to the Swap Provider.
For federal income tax purposes, any amount distributed on the LIBOR

Distribution Date in excess of the amount distributable on the Corresponding
Class of LIBOR Certificates on such Distribution Date shall be treated as having

ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 3.01 Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans. (a) For and on
behalf of the Certificateholders, the Servicer shall service and administer the
Mortgage Loans 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
in which it services and administers similar mortgage loans for its own
portfolio, giving due consideration to customary and usual standards of practice
of mortgage lenders and loan servicers administering similar mortgage loans but
without regard to:
(i) any relationship that the Servicer, any Subservicer or any
Affiliate of the Servicer or any Subservicer may have with the related
Mortgagor;
(ii) the ownership or non-ownership of any Certificate by the
Servicer or any Affiliate of the Servicer;
(iii) the Servicer's obligation to make P&I Advances or Servicing
Advances; or
(iv) the Servicer's or any Subservicer's right to receive
compensation for its services hereunder or with respect to any particular
transaction.
To the extent consistent with the foregoing, if the Servicer shall
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, acting alone or through Subservicers as
provided in Section 3.02, to do or cause to be done any and all things in
connection with such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or
desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer in its
own name or in the name of a Subservicer is hereby authorized and empowered by
the Trustee when the Servicer believes it appropriate in its best judgment in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, to execute and deliver 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. The Servicer shall be responsible for preparing and recording
all lien releases and mortgage satisfactions in accordance with state and local
regulations, and shall be responsible for all expenses in connection therewith
if not paid by the Mortgagor if permitted by applicable law and the related
Mortgage Loan Documents (except if such expense would constitute a Servicing
Advance) and all other consequences resulting from its failure to fully
discharge such obligation. 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 3.16, the Trustee shall execute, at the
written request of the Servicer, and furnish to the Servicer and any Subservicer
such documents provided to the Trustee as are necessary or appropriate to enable
the Servicer or any Subservicer to carry out their servicing and administrative
duties hereunder, and the Trustee hereby grants to the Servicer, and this
Agreement shall constitute, a power of attorney to carry out such duties
including a power of attorney to take title to Mortgaged Properties after
foreclosure on behalf of the Trustee. The Trustee shall execute a separate power
of attorney, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit W, in favor of the
Servicer for the purposes described herein to the extent necessary or desirable
to enable the Servicer to perform its duties hereunder. The Trustee shall not be
liable for the actions of the Servicer or any Subservicers under such powers of
attorney. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no Servicer
or Subservicer shall without the Trustee's consent: (i) initiate any action,
suit or proceeding solely under the Trustee's name without indicating such
Servicer's or Subservicer's, as applicable, representative capacity, or (ii)
take any action with the intent to, or which actually does cause, the Trustee to
be registered to do business in any state.
(b) Subject to Section 3.09(b), in accordance with the standards of
the preceding paragraph, the Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced
funds as necessary for the purpose of effecting the timely payment of taxes and
assessments on the Mortgaged Properties, which advances shall be Servicing
Advances reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the
Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.09(b), and further as provided in Section 3.11.
Any cost incurred by the Servicer or by Subservicers in effecting the timely
payment of taxes and assessments on a Mortgaged Property shall not be added to
the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that
the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit.
(c) 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 4.01 and except for Servicing Advances) and the
Servicer shall not (i) 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 (except for a reduction of
interest payments resulting from the application of the Servicemembers Civil
Relief Act or any similar state statutes) or (ii) permit 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 to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or
the imposition of any tax on "prohibited transactions" or "contributions after
the startup day" under the REMIC Provisions, or (iii) except as provided in
Section 3.07(a), waive any Prepayment Charges.
(d) 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.
Section 3.02 Subservicing Agreements between the Servicer and
Subservicers. (a) The Servicer may enter into subservicing agreements with
Subservicers for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans
("Subservicing Agreements"). The Servicer represents and warrants to the other
parties hereto that no Subservicing Agreement is in effect as of the Closing
Date with respect to any Mortgage Loans required to be serviced by it hereunder.
The Servicer shall give notice to the Depositor and the Trustee of any such
Subservicer and Subservicing Agreement, which notice shall contain all
information (including without limitation a copy of the Subservicing Agreement)
reasonably necessary to enable the Trustee, pursuant to Section 8.12(g), to
accurately and timely report the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to
the Exchange Act (if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be
filed under the Exchange Act). No Subservicing Agreement shall be effective
until 30 days after such written notice is received by both the Depositor and
the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be required to review or consent to such
Subservicing Agreements and shall have no liability in connection therewith.
(b) Each Subservicer shall be (i) authorized to transact business in
the state or states in which the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service
are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law to enable the
Subservicer to perform its obligations hereunder and under the Subservicing
Agreement, (ii) an institution approved as a mortgage loan originator by the
Federal Housing Administration or an institution that has deposit accounts
insured by the FDIC and (iii) a Xxxxxxx Mac or Xxxxxx Mae approved mortgage
servicer. Each Subservicing Agreement must impose on the Subservicer
requirements conforming to the provisions set forth in Section 3.08 and provide
for servicing of the Mortgage Loans consistent with the terms of this Agreement.
The Servicer will examine each Subservicing Agreement and will be familiar with
the terms thereof. The terms of any Subservicing Agreement will not be
inconsistent with any of the provisions of this Agreement. The Servicer and the
Subservicers may enter into and make amendments to the Subservicing Agreements
or enter into different forms of Subservicing Agreements; provided, however,
that any such amendments or different forms shall be consistent with and not
violate the provisions of this Agreement, and that no such amendment or
different form shall be made or entered into which could be reasonably expected
to be materially adverse to the interests of the Trustee, without the consent of
the Trustee. Any variation without the consent of the Trustee from the
provisions set forth in Section 3.08 relating to insurance or priority
requirements of Subservicing Accounts, or credits and charges to the
Subservicing Accounts or the timing and amount of remittances by the
Subservicers to the Servicer, are conclusively deemed to be inconsistent with
this Agreement and therefore prohibited. The Servicer shall deliver to the
Trustee and the Depositor copies of all Subservicing Agreements, and any
amendments or modifications thereof, promptly upon the Servicer's execution and
delivery of such instruments.
(c) As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Servicer
(except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of this paragraph), for the
benefit of the Trustee, shall enforce the obligations of each Subservicer under
the related Subservicing Agreement, including, without limitation, any
obligation to make advances in respect of delinquent payments as required by a
Subservicing Agreement. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the
legal prosecution of claims, termination of Subservicing Agreements, and the
pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to
such an extent and at such time as the Servicer, in its good faith business
judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The
Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, and shall
be reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general recovery resulting from such
enforcement, to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due
in respect of the related Mortgage Loans or (ii) from a specific recovery of
costs, expenses or attorneys' fees against the party against whom such
enforcement is directed.
(d) The Servicer shall cause any Subservicer engaged by the Servicer
(or by any Subservicer) for the benefit of the Depositor and the Trustee to
comply with the provisions of this Section 3.02 and with Sections 3.22, 3.23,
6.02 and 6.05 of this Agreement to the same extent as if such Subservicer were
the Servicer, and to provide the information required with respect to such
Subservicer under Section 8.12 of this Agreement. The Servicer shall be
responsible for obtaining from each such Subservicer and delivering to
applicable Persons any servicer compliance statement required to be delivered by
such Subservicer under Section 3.22 and any assessment of compliance report and
related accountant's attestation required to be delivered by such Subservicer
under Section 3.23, in each case as and when required to be delivered.
(e) Subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 3.02(e), the
Servicer and any Subservicer engaged by the Servicer is permitted to utilize one
or more Subcontractors to perform certain of its obligations hereunder. The
Servicer shall promptly upon request provide to the Depositor and the Trustee a
written description (in form and substance satisfactory to the Depositor and the
Trustee) of the role and function of each Subcontractor utilized by the Servicer
or any such Subservicer, specifying, not later than the date specified for
delivery of the annual report on assessment of compliance set forth in Section
3.23(a) (i) the identity of each such Subcontractor, if any, that is
"participating in the servicing function" within the meaning of Item 1122 of
Regulation AB, and (ii) which elements of the Servicing Criteria will be
addressed in assessments of compliance provided by each Subcontractor identified
pursuant to clause (i) of this paragraph. As a condition to the utilization by
the Servicer or any such Subservicer of any Subcontractor determined to be
"participating in the servicing function" within the meaning of Item 1122 of
Regulation AB, the Servicer shall cause any such Subcontractor used by the
Servicer (or by any such Subservicer) for the benefit of the Depositor and the
Trustee to comply with the provisions of Section 3.23 of this Agreement to the
same extent as if such Subcontractor were the Servicer. The Servicer shall be
responsible for obtaining from each such Subcontractor and delivering to the
applicable Persons any assessment of compliance report and related accountant's
attestation required to be delivered by such Subcontractor under Section 3.23,
in each case as and when required to be delivered.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer engages a Subcontractor
in connection with the performance of any of its duties under this Agreement,
the Servicer shall be responsible for determining whether such Subcontractor is
a "servicer" within the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and whether any
such affiliate or third-party vendor meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i)
through (iii) of Regulation AB. If the Servicer determines, pursuant to the
preceding sentence, that such Subcontractor is a "servicer" within the meaning
of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i)
through (iii) of Regulation AB, then such Subcontractor shall be deemed to be a
Subservicer for purposes of this Agreement, the engagement of such Subservicer
shall not be effective unless and until notice is given pursuant to Section
3.02(a) and the Servicer shall comply with Section 3.02(d) with respect thereto.
Section 3.03 Successor Subservicers. The Servicer shall be entitled
to terminate any Subservicing Agreement and the rights and obligations of any
Subservicer pursuant to any Subservicing Agreement in accordance with the terms
and conditions of such Subservicing Agreement; provided, however, that the
termination, resignation or removal of a Subservicer shall be not be effective
until 30 days after written notice is received by both the Depositor and the
Trustee that contains all information reasonably necessary to enable the
Trustee, pursuant to Section 8.12(g), to accurately and timely report the event
under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act (if such reports under
the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the Exchange Act). In the event
of termination of any Subservicer, all servicing obligations of such Subservicer
shall be assumed simultaneously by the Servicer without any act or deed on the
part of such Subservicer or the Servicer, and the Servicer either shall service
directly the related Mortgage Loans or shall enter into a Subservicing Agreement
with a successor Subservicer which qualifies under Section 3.02.
Any Subservicing Agreement shall include the provision that such
agreement may be immediately terminated by the Depositor or the Trustee without
fee, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in the event that the
Servicer shall, for any reason, no longer be the Servicer (including termination
due to an Event of Default).
Section 3.04 Liability of the Servicer. Notwithstanding any
Subservicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to
agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a Subservicer or reference
to actions taken through a Subservicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain
obligated and primarily liable to the Trustee for the servicing and
administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section
3.01 without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such
Subservicing Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the
Subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if
the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. The
Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Subservicer for
indemnification of the Servicer by such Subservicer and nothing contained in
this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.
Section 3.05 No Contractual Relationship between Subservicers and
the Trustee. Any Subservicing Agreement that may be entered into and any
transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Subservicer
in its capacity as such shall be deemed to be between the Subservicer and the
Servicer alone, and the Trustee (or any successor Servicer) shall not be deemed
a party thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or
liabilities with respect to the Subservicer except as set forth in Section 3.06.
The Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any Subservicer,
irrespective of whether the Servicer's compensation pursuant to this Agreement
is sufficient to pay such fees.
Section 3.06 Assumption or Termination of Subservicing Agreements by
Trustee. In the event the Servicer at any time shall for any reason no longer be
the Servicer (including by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default), the
Trustee, or its designee or the successor Servicer if the successor is not the
Trustee, shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the
Servicer under each Subservicing Agreement that the Servicer may have entered
into, with copies thereof provided to the Trustee or the successor Servicer if
the successor is not the Trustee, prior to the Trustee or the successor Servicer
if the successor is not the Trustee, assuming such rights and obligations,
unless the Trustee elects to terminate any Subservicing Agreement in accordance
with its terms as provided in Section 3.03.
Upon such assumption, the Trustee, its designee or the successor
servicer shall be deemed, subject to Section 3.03, to have assumed all of the
Servicer's interest therein and to have replaced the Servicer as a party to each
Subservicing Agreement to the same extent as if each Subservicing Agreement had
been assigned to the assuming party, except that (i) the Servicer shall not
thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under any Subservicing
Agreement that arose before it ceased to be the Servicer and (ii) none of the
Depositor, the Trustee, their designees or any successor Servicer shall be
deemed to have assumed any liability or obligation of the Servicer that arose
before it ceased to be the Servicer.
The Servicer at its expense shall, upon request of the Trustee, its
designee or the successor Servicer deliver to the assuming party all documents
and records relating to each Subservicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans then
being serviced and an accounting of amounts collected and held by or on behalf
of it, and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient
transfer of the Subservicing Agreements to the assuming party.
Section 3.07 Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments. (a) 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 and the terms and provisions
of any applicable Insurance Policies, 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 and Accepted Servicing
Practices, the Servicer may (i) waive any late payment charge or, if applicable,
any penalty interest, or (ii) extend the Due Dates for the Scheduled Payments
due on a Mortgage Note for a period of not greater than 180 days; provided, that
any extension pursuant to clause (ii) above shall not affect the amortization
schedule of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of any computation hereunder, except
as provided below. In the event of any such arrangement pursuant to clause (ii)
above, the Servicer shall make timely advances on such Mortgage Loan during such
extension pursuant to Section 4.01 and in accordance with the amortization
schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such
arrangements, subject to Section 4.01(d) pursuant to which the Servicer shall
not be required to make any such advances that are Nonrecoverable P&I Advances.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer may waive, in whole or in part, a
Prepayment Charge only under the following circumstances: (i) such waiver
relates to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default and would, in the
reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize recovery of total proceeds taking
into account the value of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan
or (ii) such Prepayment Charge is not permitted to be collected by applicable
law. If a Prepayment Charge is waived other than as permitted by the prior
sentence, then the Servicer is required to pay the amount of such waived
Prepayment Charge, for the benefit of the Holders of the Class P Certificates,
by depositing such amount into the Collection Account from its own funds,
without any right of reimbursement therefor, together with and at the time that
the amount prepaid on the related Mortgage Loan is required to be deposited into
the Collection Account; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not have an
obligation to pay the amount of any uncollected Prepayment Charge if the failure
to collect such amount is the direct result of inaccurate or incomplete
information on the Mortgage Loan Schedule in effect at such time.
(b) (i) The Trustee shall establish and maintain the Excess Reserve
Fund Account, on behalf of the Class X Certificateholders as a non-interest
bearing account, to receive any Basis Risk Payment and to secure their limited
recourse obligation to pay to the LIBOR Certificateholders Basis Risk Carry
Forward Amounts (prior to using any Interest Rate Cap Payments or Net Swap
Receipts). For the avoidance of doubt, any Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts
shall be paid to the LIBOR Certificates first from the Excess Reserve Fund
Account and then from the Supplemental Interest Account.
(ii) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall deposit the amount
of any Basis Risk Payment for such date into the Excess Reserve Fund
Account.
(c) (i) On each Distribution Date on which there exists a Basis Risk
Carry Forward Amount on any Class of Certificates, the Trustee shall (1)
withdraw from the Distribution Account and deposit in the Excess Reserve Fund
Account, as set forth in Section 4.02(a)(iii)(S), the lesser of (x) the Class X
Distributable Amount (without regard to the reduction in the definition thereof
for any Basis Risk Carry Forward Amount or any Defaulted Swap Termination
Payment (to the extent remaining after the distributions specified in Sections
4.02(a)(iii)(A)-(R)) and (y) the aggregate Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts for
such Distribution Date and (2) withdraw from the Excess Reserve Fund Account
amounts necessary to pay to such Class or Classes of Certificates the Basis Risk
Carry Forward Amount. Such payments shall be allocated to those Classes and paid
in the priority set forth in Sections 4.02(a)(iii)(T).
(ii) The Trustee shall account for the Excess Reserve Fund Account
as an asset of a grantor trust under subpart E, Part I of subchapter J of
the Code and not as an asset of any REMIC created pursuant to this
Agreement. The beneficial owners of the Excess Reserve Fund Account are
the Class X Certificateholders. For all federal tax purposes, amounts
transferred by the Upper Tier REMIC to the Excess Reserve Fund Account
shall be treated as distributions by the Trustee to the Class X
Certificateholders.
(iii) Any Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts paid by the Trustee to
the LIBOR Certificateholders from the Excess Reserve Fund Account or the
Supplemental Interest Account shall be accounted for by the Trustee as
amounts paid first to the Holders of the Class X Certificates (in respect
of the Class X Interest or the Class IO Interest, respectively) and then
to the respective Class or Classes of LIBOR Certificates. In addition, the
Trustee shall account for the LIBOR Certificateholders' rights to receive
payments of Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts from the Excess Reserve Fund
Account (along with payments of Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts and,
without duplication, Upper Tier Carry Forward Amounts from the
Supplemental Interest Account), subject to the obligation to pay Class IO
Shortfalls, as rights and obligations under a limited recourse notional
principal contract between the Class X Certificateholders and each Class
of LIBOR Certificates.
(iv) Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement, the
Trustee shall not be required to make any payments from the Excess Reserve
Fund Account except as expressly set forth in this Section 3.07(c) and
Sections 4.02(a)(iii)(T).
(d) The Trustee shall establish and maintain the Distribution
Account on behalf of the Certificateholders, which shall be a non-interest
bearing trust account. The Depositor shall cause to be deposited into the
Distribution Account on the Closing Date the Closing Date Deposit Amount. The
Trustee shall, promptly upon receipt, deposit in the Distribution Account and
retain therein the following:
(i) the aggregate amount remitted by the Servicer to the Trustee
pursuant to Section 3.11;
(ii) any amount deposited by the Servicer pursuant to Section
3.12(b) in connection with any losses on Permitted Investments; and
(iii) any other amounts deposited hereunder which are required to be
deposited in the Distribution Account.
In the event that the Servicer shall remit any amount not required
to be remitted, it may at any time direct the Trustee in writing to withdraw
such amount from the Distribution Account, any provision herein to the contrary
notwithstanding. Such direction may be accomplished by delivering notice to the
Trustee which describes the amounts deposited in error in the Distribution
Account. All funds deposited in the Distribution Account shall be held by the
Trustee in trust for the Certificateholders until disbursed in accordance with
this Agreement or withdrawn in accordance with Section 4.02. In no event shall
the Trustee incur liability for withdrawals from the Distribution Account at the
direction of the Servicer.
(e) The Trustee may invest the funds in the Distribution Account in
one or more Permitted Investments in accordance with Section 3.12. The Trustee
may withdraw from the Distribution Account any income or gain earned from the
investment of funds deposited therein during the Trustee Float Period for its
own benefit.
(f) The Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, each Rating
Agency and the Depositor of any proposed change of the location of the
Collection Account within a reasonable period of time prior to any change
thereof.
(g) In order to comply with its duties under the USA Patriot Act of
2001 and other laws, rules and regulations applicable to banking institutions,
including those related to the funding of terrorist activities and money
laundering, the Trustee is required to obtain, verify and record certain
information relating to individuals and entities which maintain a business
relationship with the Trustee. Accordingly, each of the parties agrees to
provide to the Trustee upon its request from time to time such party's complete
name, address, tax identification number and such other identifying information
together with copies of such party's constituting documentation, securities
disclosure documentation and such other identifying documentation as may be
available for such party.
(h) On or prior to the Determination Date, the Custodian shall
deliver an invoice to the Trustee (which may be provided electronically),
setting forth the amount of the custodian fee for the related Distribution Date.
On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall remit the custodian fee to the
Custodian from the Trustee's own funds.
Section 3.08 Subservicing Accounts. In those cases where a
Subservicer is servicing a Mortgage Loan pursuant to a Subservicing Agreement,
the Subservicer will be required to establish and maintain one or more
segregated accounts (collectively, the "Subservicing Account"). The Subservicing
Account shall be an Eligible Account and shall otherwise be acceptable to the
Servicer. The Subservicer shall deposit in the clearing account (which account
must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments and
collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing
activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than one Business Day after
the Subservicer's receipt thereof, all proceeds of Mortgage Loans received by
the Subservicer less its servicing compensation to the extent permitted by the
Subservicing Agreement, and shall thereafter deposit such amounts in the
Subservicing Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the deposit
of such funds into the clearing account. The Subservicer shall thereafter
deposit such proceeds in the Collection Account or remit such proceeds to the
Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account not later than two Business Days
after the deposit of such amounts in the Subservicing Account. For purposes of
this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received payments on the
Mortgage Loans when the Subservicer receives such payments.
Section 3.09 Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items;
Escrow Accounts. (a) The Servicer shall ensure that each of the Mortgage Loans
shall be covered by a paid-in-full, life-of-the-loan tax service contract in
effect with respect to each First Lien Mortgage Loan (each, a "Tax Service
Contract"). Each Tax Service Contract shall be assigned to the Trustee, or its
designee, at the Servicer's expense in the event that the Servicer is terminated
as Servicer of the related Mortgage Loan.
(b) To the extent that the services described in this paragraph (b)
are not otherwise provided pursuant to the Tax Service Contracts described in
paragraph (a) above, the Servicer undertakes to perform such functions. To the
extent the related Mortgage provides for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall
establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, one or more
segregated accounts (the "Escrow Accounts"), which shall be Eligible Accounts.
The Servicer shall deposit in the clearing account (which account must be an
Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on
mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a
daily basis, and in no event more than one Business Day after the Servicer's
receipt thereof, all (i) collections from the Mortgagors (or related advances
from Subservicers) for the payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance
premiums and comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors ("Escrow
Payments") collected on account of the Mortgage Loans and (ii) all Condemnation
Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds to be applied to the restoration of the related
Mortgaged Property or released to the related Mortgagor in accordance with
applicable law and Accepted Servicing Practices, and the Servicer shall
thereafter deposit such Escrow Payments in the Escrow Accounts, in no event more
than two Business Days after the deposit of such funds in the clearing account,
for the purpose of effecting the payment of any such items as required under the
terms of this Agreement. Withdrawals of amounts from an Escrow Account may be
made only to (i) effect payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance
premiums, and comparable items; (ii) reimburse the Servicer (or a Subservicer to
the extent provided in the related Subservicing Agreement) out of related
collections for any advances made pursuant to Section 3.01 (with respect to
taxes and assessments) and Section 3.13 (with respect to hazard insurance);
(iii) refund to Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv)
pay itself any interest earned on the Escrow Account or, if required and as
described below, to Mortgagors on balances in the Escrow Account; (v) clear and
terminate the Escrow Account at the termination of the Servicer's obligations
and responsibilities in respect of the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement; (vi)
transfer such funds to a replacement Escrow Account that meets the requirements
hereof; (vii) recover amounts deposited in error or (viii) to release
Condemnation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds to be applied to the restoration of
the related Mortgaged Property or to the related Mortgagor in accordance with
the applicable law and Accepted Servicing Practices. As part of its servicing
duties, the Servicer or Subservicers shall pay to the Mortgagors interest on
funds in Escrow Accounts, to the extent required by law and, to the extent that
interest earned on funds in the Escrow Accounts is insufficient, to pay such
interest from its or their own funds, without any reimbursement therefor. To the
extent that a Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall
use its reasonable best efforts to determine whether any such payments are made
by the Mortgagor in a manner and at a time that avoids the loss of the Mortgaged
Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure of a tax lien. The Servicer
assumes full responsibility for the payment of all such bills within such time
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 advances from its own funds to effect such payments, including
any payment required to be made in connection with a Mortgage Loan that does
provide for Escrow Payments and is insufficient to make such payments; provided,
however, that such advances are deemed to be Servicing Advances.
Section 3.10 Collection Account. (a) On behalf of the Trustee and
the Certificateholders, the Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to
be established and maintained, one or more segregated Eligible Accounts (such
account or accounts, the "Collection Account"), held in trust for the benefit of
the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders. On behalf of the Trustee, the
Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the clearing account (which
account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments
and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing
activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than one Business Day after
the Servicer's receipt thereof, and shall thereafter deposit into the Collection
Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the deposit of such funds
into the clearing account, as and when received or as otherwise required
hereunder, the following payments and collections received or made by it
subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal or interest
on the related Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date), or payments
(other than Principal Prepayments) received by it on or prior to the Cut-off
Date but allocable to a Due Period subsequent thereto:
(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 Condemnation Proceeds to the extent
such Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds are not to be applied to
the restoration of the related Mortgaged Property or released to the
related Mortgagor in accordance with the express requirements of law or in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, Liquidation Proceeds and
Subsequent Recoveries;
(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 3.13(a) in respect of any blanket policy
deductibles;
(vi) all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan repurchased or purchased in
accordance with this Agreement or the Sponsor Representation Letter; and
(vii) all Prepayment Charges collected by the Servicer or required
to be paid by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.07.
The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Account
shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late payment charges, NSF
fees, reconveyance fees, assumption fees and other similar fees and charges need
not be deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account and shall, upon
collection, belong to the Servicer as additional compensation for its servicing
activities. 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. The Servicer shall at its own expense be responsible for
reviewing and reconciling the Collection Account in accordance with industry
standards and shall act promptly to resolve any discrepancies related thereto.
(b) Funds in the Collection Account may be invested in Permitted
Investments in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 3.12, subject
to Section 3.21(c). The Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee and the
Depositor of the location of the Collection Account maintained by it when
established and prior to any change thereof.
Section 3.11 Withdrawals from the Collection 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 4.01:
(i) on or prior to each Remittance Date, to remit to the Trustee (A)
the Trustee Fee with respect to such Distribution Date, (B) all Available
Funds in respect of the related Distribution Date together with all
amounts representing Prepayment Charges (payable to the Class P
Certificateholders) from the Mortgage Loans received by the Servicer
during the related Prepayment Period and (C) subject to Section 3.21(c),
all income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the
Collection Account, for deposit in the Supplemental Float Account;
(ii) to reimburse the Servicer for P&I Advances, but only to the
extent of amounts received which represent Late Collections (net of the
related Servicing Fees) of Scheduled Payments on Mortgage Loans with
respect to which such P&I Advances were made in accordance with the
provisions of Section 4.01;
(iii) to pay the Servicer or any Subservicer (A) any unpaid
Servicing Fees or (B) any unreimbursed Servicing Advances and any
previously unpaid late charges, fees and penalties with respect to each
Mortgage Loan, but only to the extent of any Late Collections or other
amounts as may be collected by the Servicer from a Mortgagor, or otherwise
received with respect to such Mortgage Loan (or the related REO Property);
(iv) to pay to the Servicer as additional servicing compensation (in
addition to the Servicing Fee) on each Remittance Date (A) subject to
Section 3.21(c) and Section 4.07, any interest or investment income earned
on funds deposited in the Collection Account or (B) any Prepayment
Interest Excesses to the extent permitted under Section 3.21(b);
(v) to pay to the applicable Person, with respect to each Mortgage
Loan that has previously been repurchased or replaced by such Person
pursuant to this Agreement or the Sponsor Representation Letter, all
amounts received thereon subsequent to the date of purchase or
substitution, as the case may be;
(vi) to reimburse the Servicer for (A) any P&I Advance or Servicing
Advance previously made which the Servicer has determined to be a
Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance in
accordance with the provisions of Section 4.01 and (B) any unpaid
Servicing Fees related to any Second Lien Mortgage Loan to the extent not
recoverable from Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or other amounts
received with respect to the related Second Lien Mortgage Loan under
Section 3.11(a)(iii);
(vii) to pay, or to reimburse the Servicer for Servicing Advances in
respect of, expenses incurred in connection with any Mortgage Loan
pursuant to Section 3.15;
(viii) to reimburse the Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustee for
expenses incurred by or reimbursable to the Servicer, the Depositor or the
Trustee, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 6.03, Section 7.02 or
Section 8.05;
(ix) to reimburse the Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be,
for expenses reasonably incurred in respect of the breach or defect giving
rise to the repurchase obligation under this Agreement or the Sponsor
Representation Letter that were included in the Repurchase Price of the
Mortgage Loan, including any expenses arising out of the enforcement of
the repurchase obligation, to the extent not otherwise paid pursuant to
the terms hereof;
(x) to withdraw any amounts deposited in the Collection Account in
error; and
(xi) to clear and terminate the Collection Account upon termination
of this Agreement;
(xii) to withdraw any amounts held in the related Collection Account
and not required to be remitted to the Trustee on the Remittance Date
occurring in the month in which such amounts are deposited into such
Collection Account, to reimburse such Servicer for xxxxxxxxxxxx X&X
Advances; and
(xiii) to invest funds in Permitted Investments in accordance with
Section 3.12.
(b) 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 (a)(ii), (iii), (v), (vi), (vii), (viii), (ix) and
(x) above. The Servicer shall provide written notification (as set forth in
Section 4.01(d)) to the Trustee, on or prior to the next succeeding Remittance
Date, upon making any withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to
subclause (a)(vi) above.
Section 3.12 Investment of Funds in the Collection Account, Escrow
Accounts and the Distribution Account. (a) (i) The Servicer may invest the funds
in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.21(c) and (ii) the Servicer may
invest the funds in the Escrow Accounts (to the extent permitted by law and the
related Mortgage Loan documents) and the Trustee may (but is not obligated to)
invest funds in the Distribution Account during the Trustee Float Period and
shall (except during the Trustee Float Period) invest such funds in the
Distribution Account (for purposes of this Section 3.12, each such Account is
referred to as an "Investment Account"), in one or more Permitted Investments
bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand,
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;
provided, however, that any such Permitted Investment may mature, unless payable
on demand or held at the institution of the Trustee, no later than one Business
Day prior to the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such
account pursuant to this Agreement. If no investment instruction is given in a
timely manner, the Trustee shall hold the funds in the Distribution Account
uninvested. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless
payable on demand. Any investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be
made in the name of the Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable. The Servicer or
the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to sole possession over each such
investment, and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such
investment shall be delivered directly to the Servicer or the Trustee or its
agent, as applicable, together with any document of transfer necessary to
transfer title to such investment to the Servicer or the Trustee or its agent,
as applicable. In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at
any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Servicer or
the Trustee, as applicable, may:
(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 that such
Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted
Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in an
Investment Account.
(b) All income and gain realized from the investment of funds
deposited in the Collection Account (subject to Section 3.21(c) and Section
4.07) or Escrow Account, as applicable, held by or on behalf of the Servicer,
shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal
in the manner set forth in Section 3.11. The Servicer shall, from its own funds,
deposit in the Collection Account or Escrow Account, as applicable, the amount
of any loss of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment
made with funds in such accounts immediately upon realization of such loss.
(c) All income and gain realized from the investment of funds
deposited in the Distribution Account held by the Trustee, shall be for the
benefit of the Trustee, and shall be subject to the Trustee's withdrawal in the
manner set forth in Section 3.07(e). The Trustee shall, from its own funds,
deposit in the Distribution Account the amount of any loss of principal incurred
in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such account
immediately upon realization of such loss.
(d) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any
default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment of
funds held in the Escrow Account or the Collection Account, or if a default
occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment of funds
held in the Escrow Account or the Collection Account, the Servicer shall take
such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance,
including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.
(e) The Trustee shall not be liable for the amount of any loss
incurred with respect of any investment or lack of investment of funds held in
any Investment Account or the Distribution Account (except that if any losses
are incurred from the investment of funds deposited in the Distribution Account
during the Trustee Float Period, the Trustee shall be responsible for
reimbursing the Trust for such loss immediately upon realization of such loss)
if made in accordance with this Section 3.12.
(f) The Trustee or its Affiliates shall be 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 pursuant to this Agreement.
Section 3.13 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance and Errors and
Omissions and Fidelity Coverage. (a) The Servicer shall cause to be maintained
for each Mortgage Loan fire insurance with extended coverage on the related
Mortgaged Property in an amount which is at least equal to the least of (i) the
outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan, (ii) the amount necessary
to fully compensate for any damage or loss to the improvements that are a part
of such property on a replacement cost basis and (iii) the maximum insurable
value of the improvements which are a part of such Mortgaged Property, 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 insurance with
extended coverage on each REO Property 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, plus accrued interest at
the Mortgage Rate and related Servicing Advances. 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 required to be deposited in
the Escrow Account and 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. Any cost incurred by the
Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of
calculating distributions to the Trustee, 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 and flood
insurance has been made available, 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 either (i) acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac or
(ii) having a general policy rating of A:VI or better in Best's (or such other
rating that is comparable to such rating) 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 3.13, 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 3.13, 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 and the Trustee, claims under
any such blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such
policy.
(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 the Servicer's obligations under this Agreement,
which policy or policies shall be in such form and amount that would meet the
requirements of Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac if it were the purchaser of the
Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall also 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 upon request with 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. The
Servicer shall also cause each Subservicer to maintain a policy of insurance
covering errors and omissions and a fidelity bond which would meet such
requirements.
Section 3.14 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 be required to take such action if, in its sole business
judgment, the Servicer believes it is not in the best interests of the Trust
Fund and 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 either (i)
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 or (ii) a
substitution agreement as provided in the succeeding sentence. 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 underwriting criteria of the Servicer and has a credit
risk rating at least equal to that of the original Mortgagor. In connection with
any assumption, modification 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, or a new policy meeting the requirements of this Section is obtained.
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 Scheduled 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, modification or assumption agreement has been
completed by forwarding to the Custodian the executed original of such
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 whatsoever. For purposes of this Section 3.14, 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 3.15 Realization upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans. The Servicer
shall use its best efforts, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, to
foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert (which may include an acquisition
of REO Property) 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, and which are not released from this Agreement pursuant to any
other provision hereof. The Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to realize
upon such defaulted Mortgage Loans in such manner as will maximize the receipt
of principal and interest by the Trustee, taking into account, among other
things, the timing of foreclosure proceedings; provided, however, with respect
to any Second Lien Mortgage Loan for which the related first lien mortgage loan
is not included in the Trust Fund, if, after such Mortgage Loan becomes 180 days
or more delinquent, the Servicer determines that a significant net recovery is
not possible through foreclosure, such Mortgage Loan may be charged off and the
Mortgage Loan will be treated as a Liquidated Mortgage Loan giving rise to a
Realized Loss. The foregoing is subject to the provisions that, in any case in
which 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 sole discretion (i) that such
restoration will increase the net Liquidation Proceeds of the related Mortgage
Loan to the Trustee, after reimbursement to itself for such expenses, and (ii)
that such expenses will be recoverable by the Servicer through Insurance
Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or Subsequent Recoveries
from the related Mortgaged Property, as contemplated in Section 3.11. The
Servicer shall be responsible for all other costs and expenses incurred by it in
any such proceedings; provided, however, that it shall be entitled to
reimbursement thereof as contemplated in Section 3.11.
The proceeds of any liquidation or REO Disposition, as well as any
recovery resulting from a partial collection of Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation
Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or Subsequent Recoveries or any income from an
REO Property, will be applied in the following order of priority: first, to
reimburse the Servicer or any Subservicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing
Advances, and any previously unpaid late charges, fees and penalties, pursuant
to Section 3.11 or 3.17; second, to reimburse the Servicer for any related
xxxxxxxxxxxx X&X Advances, pursuant to Section 3.11; third, to accrued and
unpaid interest on the Mortgage Loan or REO Imputed Interest, at the Mortgage
Rate, to the date of the liquidation or REO Disposition, or to the Due Date
prior to the Remittance Date on which such amounts are to be distributed if not
in connection with a liquidation or REO Disposition; and fourth, as a recovery
of principal of the Mortgage Loan. If the amount of the recovery so allocated to
interest is less than a full recovery thereof, that amount will be allocated as
follows: first, to unpaid Servicing Fees; and second, as interest at the
Mortgage Rate (net of the Servicing Fee Rate). The portion of the recovery so
allocated to unpaid Servicing Fees shall be reimbursed to the Servicer or any
Subservicer pursuant to Section 3.11 or 3.17. The portions of the recovery so
allocated to interest at the Mortgage Rate (net of the Servicing Fee Rate) and
to principal of the Mortgage Loan shall be applied as follows: first, to
reimburse the Servicer or any Subservicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing
Advances in accordance with Section 3.11 or 3.17, and second, to the Trustee in
accordance with the provisions of Section 4.02, subject to paragraph (g) of
Section 3.17 with respect to certain excess recoveries from an REO Disposition.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in
connection with a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, in
the event the Servicer has received actual notice of, or has actual knowledge of
the presence of, hazardous or toxic substances or wastes on the related
Mortgaged Property, or if the Trustee otherwise requests, the Servicer shall
cause an environmental inspection or review of such Mortgaged Property to be
conducted by a qualified inspector. Upon completion of the inspection, the
Servicer shall promptly provide the Trustee and the Depositor with a written
report of the environmental inspection.
After reviewing the environmental inspection report, the Servicer
shall determine consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices how the Servicer
shall proceed with respect to the Mortgaged Property. In the event (a) the
environmental inspection report indicates that the Mortgaged Property is
contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes and (b) the Servicer
proceeds with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the
Servicer shall be reimbursed for all reasonable costs associated with such
foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure and any related
environmental clean-up costs, as applicable, from the related Liquidation
Proceeds, or if the Liquidation Proceeds are insufficient to fully reimburse the
Servicer, the Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from amounts in the
Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.11. In the event the Servicer does not
proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the
Servicer shall be reimbursed from general collections for all Servicing Advances
made with respect to the related Mortgaged Property from the Collection Account
pursuant to Section 3.11.
Section 3.16 Release of Mortgage Files. (a) 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, within five (5) Business Days of the payment in full, notify the
Trustee and the Custodian by a certification (which certification shall include
a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in
connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the
Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.10 have been or will be so deposited)
of a Servicing Officer and shall request delivery to it of the Custodial File by
submitting a Request for Release, which Request for Release may be in an
electronic format in a form acceptable to the Custodian, to the Custodian (with
a copy to the Trustee). Upon receipt of such certification and Request for
Release, the Custodian shall promptly release the related Custodial File to the
Servicer within two (2) Business Days. No expenses incurred in connection with
any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to
the Collection Account unless such expenses constitute Servicing Advances.
(b) 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 Custodian shall, upon
request of the Servicer and delivery to the Custodian of a Request for Release,
which Request for Release may be in an electronic format in a form acceptable to
the Custodian, release the related Custodial File to the Servicer within three
(3) Business Days, and the Trustee shall, at the direction of the Servicer
(which may be by a Request for Release), execute such documents as shall be
necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings and the Servicer shall
retain the Mortgage File in trust for the benefit of the Trustee. Such Request
for Release shall obligate the Servicer to return each and every document
previously requested from the Custodial File to the Custodian 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 Custodian 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 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 Custodian to the Servicer or its designee. Upon receipt of a Request for
Release under this Section 3.16, the Custodian shall deliver the related
Custodial File to the Servicer (if by overnight courier it shall be at the
Servicer's expense).
Upon written certification of a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall
execute and deliver to the Servicer copies of any court pleadings, requests for
trustee's sale or other documents reasonably 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, or shall exercise and deliver to the Servicer a power of attorney
sufficient to authorize the Servicer to execute such documents on its behalf.
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.
Section 3.17 Title, Conservation and Disposition of REO Property.
(a) This Section shall apply only to REO Properties acquired for the account of
the Trustee and shall not apply to any REO Property relating to a Mortgage Loan
which was purchased or repurchased from the Trustee pursuant to any provision
hereof. In the event that title to any such REO Property is acquired, the deed
or certificate of sale shall be issued to Deutsche Bank National Trust Company
(or, if applicable, the name of the successor Trustee) as Trustee for
Securitized Asset Backed Receivables LLC 2006-WM3 Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, Series 2006-WM3, or to its nominee, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders.
(b) The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each
REO Property for the Trustee solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition
and sale. The Servicer, either itself or through an agent selected by the
Servicer, shall manage, conserve, protect and operate the REO Property in the
same manner that it manages, conserves, protects and operates other foreclosed
property for its own account, and in the same manner that similar property in
the same locality as the REO Property is managed. The Servicer shall attempt to
sell the same (and may temporarily rent the same for a period not greater than
one year, except as otherwise provided below) on such terms and conditions as
the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders. The Servicer shall notify the Trustee from time to time as
to the status of each REO Property.
(c) The Servicer shall use its best efforts to dispose of the REO
Property as soon as possible and shall sell such REO Property in any event
within three years after title has been taken to such REO Property, unless the
Servicer determines, and gives an appropriate notice to the Trustee to such
effect, that a longer period is necessary for the orderly liquidation of such
REO Property. Subject to Section 3.17(h), if a period longer than three years is
permitted under the foregoing sentence and is necessary to sell any REO
Property, the Servicer shall report monthly to the Trustee as to the progress
being made in selling such REO Property.
(d) 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 deposit such funds in the
Collection Account.
(e) The Servicer shall deposit net of reimbursement to the Servicer
for any related outstanding Servicing Advances and unpaid Servicing Fees
provided in Section 3.11, or cause to be deposited, in no event more than two
(2) Business Days after the Servicer's receipt thereof, in the Collection
Account all revenues received with respect to the related REO Property and shall
withdraw therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation, management and
maintenance of the REO Property.
(f) The Servicer, upon an REO Disposition, shall be entitled to
reimbursement for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances as well as any
unpaid Servicing Fees from proceeds received in connection with the REO
Disposition, as further provided in Section 3.11.
(g) Any net proceeds from an REO Disposition which are in excess of
the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan plus all unpaid REO
Imputed Interest thereon through the date of the REO Disposition shall be
retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation.
(h) The Servicer shall use its reasonable best efforts to sell, or
cause the Subservicer to sell, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices,
any REO Property as soon as possible, but in no event later than the conclusion
of the third calendar year beginning after the year of its acquisition by
Pooling Tier REMIC-1 unless (i) the Servicer applies for an extension of such
period from the Internal Revenue Service pursuant to the REMIC Provisions and
Code Section 856(e)(3), in which event such REO Property shall be sold within
the applicable extension period, or (ii) the Servicer obtains for the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Servicer, to
the effect that the holding by Pooling Tier REMIC-1 of such REO Property
subsequent to such period will not result in the imposition of taxes on
"prohibited transactions" as defined in Section 860F of the Code or cause any
Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or
comparable provisions of relevant state laws at any time. The Servicer shall
manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Trustee, the
Certificateholders and the Trust Fund 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) or
result in the receipt by the Pooling Tier REMIC-1 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
Section 860G(a)(1) of the Code. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO
Property, the Servicer shall either itself or through an agent selected by the
Servicer protect and conserve such REO Property in the same manner and to such
extent as is customary in the locality where such REO Property is located and
may, incident to its conservation and protection of the interests of the Trustee
on behalf of the Certificateholders, rent the same, or any part thereof, as the
Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders for the period prior to the sale of such REO Property;
provided, however, that any rent received or accrued with respect to such REO
Property qualifies as "rents from real property" as defined in Section 856(d) of
the Code.
Section 3.18 Notification of Adjustments. With respect to each
Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall adjust the Mortgage Rate on
the related Adjustment Date and shall adjust the Scheduled Payment on the
related mortgage payment adjustment date, if applicable, in compliance with the
requirements of applicable law and the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note. In
the event that an Index becomes unavailable or otherwise unpublished, the
Servicer shall select a comparable alternative index over which it has no direct
control and which is readily verifiable. The Servicer shall execute and deliver
any and all necessary notices required under applicable law and the terms of the
related Mortgage Note and Mortgage regarding the Mortgage Rate and Scheduled
Payment adjustments. The Servicer shall promptly, upon written request therefor,
deliver to the Trustee such notifications and any additional applicable data
regarding such adjustments and the methods used to calculate and implement such
adjustments. Upon the discovery by the Servicer or the receipt of notice from
the Trustee that the Servicer has failed to adjust a Mortgage Rate or Scheduled
Payment in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Note, the Servicer
shall deposit in the Collection Account from its own funds the amount of any
interest loss caused as such interest loss occurs.
Section 3.19 Access to Certain Documentation and Information
Regarding the Mortgage Loans. In the event the Servicer reasonably believes that
compliance with this Section will make the Mortgage Loans legal for investment
by federally insured savings and loan associations, the Servicer shall provide,
or cause the Subservicer to provide, to the Depositor, the Trustee, the OTS or
the FDIC and the examiners and supervisory agents thereof, access to the
documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans in its possession required by
applicable regulations of the OTS. Such access shall be afforded without charge,
but only upon reasonable and prior written request and during normal business
hours at the offices of the Servicer or, if applicable, any Subservicer. Nothing
in this Section shall derogate from the obligation of any such party to observe
any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the
Mortgagors and the failure of any such party to provide access as provided in
this Section as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of
this Section.
Section 3.20 Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of the
Servicer to Be Held for the Trustee. The Servicer shall account fully to the
Trustee for any funds received by the Servicer or which otherwise are collected
by the Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds or Insurance
Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage Loan serviced by the Servicer. All Mortgage
Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the Servicer in
respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether from the collection of principal and
interest payments or from Liquidation Proceeds, including, but not limited to,
any funds on deposit in its Collection Account, shall be held by the Servicer
for and on behalf of the Trustee and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive
property of the Trustee, subject to the applicable provisions of this Agreement.
The Servicer also agrees that it shall not create, incur or subject any Mortgage
File or any funds that are deposited in any Collection Account, the Distribution
Account or any Escrow Account, or any funds that otherwise are or may become due
or payable to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to any
claim, lien, security interest, judgment, levy, writ of attachment or other
encumbrance, or assert by legal action or otherwise any claim or right of setoff
against any Mortgage File or any funds collected on, or in connection with, a
Mortgage Loan, except, however, that the Servicer shall be entitled to set off
against and deduct from any such funds any amounts that are properly due and
payable to the Servicer under this Agreement.
Section 3.21 Servicing Compensation. (a) As compensation for its
activities hereunder, the Servicer shall, with respect to each Mortgage Loan, be
entitled to retain from deposits to the Collection Account and from Liquidation
Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and
REO Proceeds related to such Mortgage Loan, the Servicing Fee with respect to
each Mortgage Loan (less any portion of such amounts retained by any
Subservicer). In addition, the Servicer shall be entitled to recover unpaid
Servicing Fees out of related Late Collections and as otherwise permitted under
Section 3.11. 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; provided, however, that
the Servicer may pay from the Servicing Fee any amounts due to a Subservicer
pursuant to a Subservicing Agreement entered into under Section 3.02.
(b) Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption or
modification fees, late payment charges, net Prepayment Interest Excesses (to
the extent not required to offset Prepayment Interest Shortfalls), NSF fees,
reconveyance fees and other similar fees and charges (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 as
additional servicing compensation, to interest or other income earned on
deposits in the Escrow Account (to the extent permitted by law and the related
Mortgage Loan documents) in accordance with Section 3.12.
(c) The Servicer shall also be entitled pursuant to Section
3.11(a)(iv) to withdraw from the Collection Account as additional servicing
compensation, interest or other income earned on deposits therein; provided,
however, the Servicer shall remit to the Trustee for deposit in the Supplemental
Float Account all income and gain realized from the investment of funds
deposited in the Collection Account.
(d) The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by
it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including payment of
premiums for any blanket policy insuring against hazard losses pursuant to
Section 3.13, servicing compensation of the Subservicer to the extent not
retained by it and the fees and expenses of independent accountants and any
agents appointed by the Servicer), and shall not be entitled to reimbursement
therefor from the Trust Fund except as specifically provided in Section 3.11.
Section 3.22 Annual Statement as to Compliance. The Servicer shall
deliver, and shall cause each Subservicer engaged by the Servicer to deliver or
cause to be delivered, to the Depositor, the Rating Agencies and the Trustee on
or before March 5th of each calendar year, commencing in 2007, an Officer's
Certificate stating, as to each signatory thereof, that (i) a review of the
activities of the Servicer or Subservicer, as applicable, during the preceding
calendar year and of its performance under this Agreement or the applicable
Subservicing Agreement, as the case may be, has been made under such officer's
supervision, and (ii) to the best of such officer's knowledge, based on such
review, the Servicer or Subservicer, as applicable, has fulfilled all of its
obligations under this Agreement or the applicable Subservicing Agreement, as
the case may be, in all material respects, throughout such year, or, if there
has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect,
specifying each such failure known to such officers and the nature and status
thereof. Promptly after receipt of each such Officer's Certificate, the
Depositor shall review such Officer's Certificate and, if applicable, consult
with the Servicer or Subservicer as to the nature of any failure by the Servicer
or Subservicer in the fulfillment of any of the Servicer's or Subservicer's
obligations. The obligations of the Servicer and Subservicer under this Section
apply to each Servicer and Subservicer that serviced a Mortgage Loan, as
applicable, during the applicable period, whether or not the Servicer or such
Subservicer is acting as Servicer or Subservicer, as applicable, at the time
such Officer's Certificate is required to be delivered. None of the Servicer or
Subservicer shall be required to cause the delivery of any Officer's Certificate
required by this Section until March 15th in any given year so long as it has
received written confirmation from the Depositor that a Form 10-K is not
required to be filed in respect of the Trust for the preceding calendar year.
In the event the Servicer or any Subservicer engaged by the Servicer
is terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or any
applicable agreement in the case of a Subservicer, as the case may be, such
party shall provide with respect to the year of termination an Officer's
Certificate pursuant to this Section 3.22 or to such applicable agreement, as
the case may be, notwithstanding any such termination, assignment or
resignation, but only covering the period prior to such termination.
Section 3.23 Annual Reports on Assessment of Compliance with
Servicing Criteria; Annual Independent Public Accountants' Attestation Report.
(a) Not later than March 5th of each calendar year commencing in
2007, the Servicer, the Trustee and the Custodian shall deliver, and the
Servicer shall cause each Subservicer engaged by the Servicer and the Servicer,
the Custodian and the Trustee shall cause each Subcontractor utilized by the
Servicer (or by any such Subservicer), the Custodian or the Trustee, as
applicable, and determined by the Servicer, the Custodian or the Trustee, as
applicable, pursuant to Section 3.02(e) to be "participating in the servicing
function" within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB (in each case, a
"Servicing Function Participant"), to deliver, each at its own expense, to the
Depositor and the Trustee, a report on an assessment of compliance with the
Servicing Criteria applicable to it that contains (A) a statement by such party
of its responsibility for assessing compliance with the Servicing Criteria
applicable to it, (B) a statement that such party used the Servicing Criteria to
assess compliance with the applicable Servicing Criteria, (C) such party's
assessment of compliance with the applicable Servicing Criteria as of and for
the period ending the end of the fiscal year covered by the Form 10-K required
to be filed pursuant to Section 8.12, including, if there has been any material
instance of noncompliance with the applicable Servicing Criteria, a discussion
of each such failure and the nature and status thereof, and (D) a statement that
a registered public accounting firm has issued an attestation report on such
Person's assessment of compliance with the applicable Servicing Criteria as of
and for such period. Each such assessment of compliance report shall be
addressed to the Depositor and signed by an authorized officer of the applicable
company, and shall address each of the applicable Servicing Criteria set forth
on Exhibit P hereto, or as set forth in the notification furnished to the
Depositor and the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.23(c). The Servicer, the
Custodian and the Trustee hereby acknowledge and agree that their respective
assessments of compliance will cover the items identified on Exhibit P hereto as
being covered by such party. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that
where a particular Servicing Criteria has multiple components, each party's
assessment of compliance and related attestation of compliance will relate only
to those components that are applicable to such party. Promptly after receipt of
each such report on assessment of compliance, the Depositor shall review each
such report and, if applicable, consult with the Servicer, the Custodian or the
Trustee as to the nature of any material instance of noncompliance with the
Servicing Criteria applicable to it (and each Subservicer or Servicing Function
Participant engaged or utilized by the Servicer, such Subservicer, the Custodian
or the Trustee, as applicable), as the case may be. None of the Servicer, the
Custodian or the Trustee or any Subservicer or Servicing Function Participant
shall be required to cause the delivery of any such assessments until March 15th
in any given year so long as it has received written confirmation from the
Depositor that a Form 10-K is not required to be filed in respect of the Trust
for the preceding calendar year.
In the event the Servicer, the Trustee, the Custodian, any
Subservicer or any Servicing Function Participant engaged by any such party is
terminated, assigns its rights and obligations under, or resigns pursuant to,
the terms of this Agreement, or any other applicable agreement, as the case may
be, such party shall provide with respect to the year of termination a report on
assessment of compliance pursuant to this Section 3.23, or to such other
applicable agreement, notwithstanding any such termination, assignment or
resignation.
(b) Not later than March 5th of each calendar year commencing in
2007, the Servicer, the Custodian and the Trustee shall cause, and the Servicer
shall cause each Subservicer engaged by the Servicer and the Servicer, the
Custodian and the Trustee shall cause each Servicing Function Participant
utilized by the Trustee, the Custodian or the Servicer, as applicable (or by any
Subservicer engaged by the Servicer), to cause, each at its own expense, a
registered public accounting firm (which may also render other services to such
party) that is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants to furnish a report to the Trustee and the Depositor that attests to
and reports on such Person's assessment of compliance with the Servicing
Criteria applicable to it , with a copy to the Rating Agencies, to the effect
that (i) it has obtained a representation regarding certain matters from the
management of such Person, which includes an assertion that such Person has
complied with the Servicing Criteria applicable to it pursuant to Section
3.23(a) and (ii) on the basis of an examination conducted by such firm in
accordance with standards for attestation engagements issued or adopted by the
PCAOB, that attests to and reports on such Person's assessment of compliance
with the Servicing Criteria applicable to it. In the event that an overall
opinion cannot be expressed, such registered public accounting firm shall state
in such report why it was unable to express such an opinion. Each such related
accountant's attestation report shall be made in accordance with Rules
1-02(a)(3) and 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act and the
Exchange Act. Promptly after receipt of each such accountants' attestation
report, the Depositor shall review the report and, if applicable, consult with
the Servicer, the Custodian or the Trustee as to the nature of any defaults by
the Servicer, the Custodian or the Trustee (and each Subservicer or Servicing
Function Participant engaged or utilized by the Servicer, the Custodian or the
Trustee, as applicable, or by any Subservicer engaged by the Servicer), as the
case may be, in the fulfillment of any of the Servicer's, the Custodian's, the
Trustee's or the applicable Subservicer's or Servicing Function Participant's
obligations hereunder or under any applicable sub-servicing agreement. None of
the Servicer, the Custodian, the Trustee or any Servicer or Servicing Function
Participant shall be required to cause the delivery of any such attestation
required by this paragraph until March 15th in any given year so long as it has
received written confirmation from the Depositor that a Form 10-K is not
required to be filed in respect of the Trust for the preceding calendar year.
(c) No later than February 1 of each fiscal year, commencing in
2007, the Servicer shall notify the Trustee and the Depositor as to the name of
each Subservicer engaged by it for the prior fiscal year and each Servicing
Function Participant utilized by it and by each Subservicer engaged by it, but
only to the extent there has been a change in the information in such
notification from notices previously delivered, and the Trustee and the
Custodian shall notify the Depositor as to the name of each Servicing Function
Participant utilized by the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, and each
such notice will specify what specific Servicing Criteria will be addressed in
the report on assessment of compliance prepared by such Subservicer and
Servicing Function Participant in each case, to the extent of any change from
the prior year's notice, if any. When the Servicer, the Custodian or the Trustee
submits its assessment pursuant to Section 3.23(a), the Servicer, the Custodian
and the Trustee, as applicable, will also at such time include the assessment
(and related attestation pursuant to Section 3.23(b)) of each Servicing Function

DISTRIBUTIONS AND
ADVANCES BY THE SERVICER
Section 4.01 Advances. (a) The amount of P&I Advances to be made by
the Servicer for any Remittance Date shall equal, subject to Section 4.01(c),
the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of Scheduled Payments (with each interest
portion thereof net of the related Servicing Fee), due during the Due Period
immediately preceding such Remittance Date in respect of the Mortgage Loans,
which Scheduled Payments were not received as of the close of business on the
related Determination Date, plus (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 the
Scheduled Payments (with each interest portion thereof 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
transferred to the Collection Account for distribution on such Remittance Date.
With respect to any balloon payment on a Balloon Mortgage Loan, the Servicer
shall only be obligated to advance 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 with interest at the Mortgage Rate net
of the Servicing Fee Rate.
(b) On each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall remit in immediately
available funds to the Trustee an amount equal to the aggregate amount of P&I
Advances, if any, to be made in respect of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties
for the related Remittance 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
Collection Account that Amounts Held for Future Distribution have been, as
permitted by this Section 4.01, used by the Servicer in discharge of any such
P&I Advance) or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating
the total amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Servicer with respect to the
Mortgage Loans and REO Properties. 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
Remittance Date to the extent required.
(c) The obligation of the Servicer to make such P&I 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 coverage under this Agreement, except as otherwise provided
in this Section.
(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no P&I Advance
or Servicing Advance shall be required to be made hereunder by the Servicer if
such P&I Advance or Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a
Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The
determination by the Servicer that it has made a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or a
Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance or Servicing
Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or a
Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, respectively, shall be evidenced by an
Officer's Certificate of the Servicer delivered to the Trustee. In addition, the
Servicer shall not be required to advance any Relief Act Interest Shortfalls or
any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls in excess of its obligations to pay
Compensating Interest pursuant to Section 3.25.
(e) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Servicer shall be
entitled to reimbursement pursuant to Section 3.11 for Servicing Advances and
any previously unpaid late charges, fees and penalties from recoveries from the
related Mortgagor or from all Liquidation Proceeds and other payments or
recoveries (including Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds and Subsequent
Recoveries) with respect to the related Mortgage Loan.

Classes of Certificates, except that the Class A Certificates shall
be paid (a) first, among the Class A Certificates, pro rata, based

Certificates, based on their respective Class Certificate Balances, until their
respective Class Certificate Balances have been reduced to zero.

Certificateholders shall not be required for such withholding. If 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. Such amounts shall be deemed to have been distributed to
such Certificateholders for all purposes of this Agreement.

"OTS" methodology for determining delinquencies on mortgage loans similar to the
Mortgage Loans. By way of example, a Mortgage Loan would be delinquent with
respect to a Scheduled Payment due on a Due Date if such Scheduled Payment is
not made by the close of business on the Mortgage Loan's next succeeding Due
Date, and a Mortgage Loan would be more than 30-days Delinquent with respect to
such Scheduled Payment if such Scheduled Payment were not made by the close of
business on the Mortgage Loan's second succeeding Due Date. The Servicer hereby
represents and warrants to the Depositor that this delinquency recognition
policy is not less restrictive than any delinquency recognition policy
established by the primary safety and soundness regulator, if any, of the
Servicer with respect to mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage Loans.
Section 4.04 Certain Matters Relating to the Determination of LIBOR.
LIBOR shall be calculated by the Trustee in accordance with the definition of
LIBOR. Until all of the LIBOR Certificates are paid in full, the Trustee shall
at all times retain at least four Reference Banks for the purpose of determining
LIBOR with respect to each LIBOR Determination Date. The Trustee initially shall
designate the Reference Banks (after consultation with the Depositor). Each
"Reference Bank" shall be a leading bank engaged in transactions in Eurodollar
deposits in the international Eurocurrency market, shall not control, be
controlled by, or be under common control with, the Trustee and shall have an
established place of business in London. If any such Reference Bank should be
unwilling or unable to act as such or if the Trustee should terminate its
appointment as Reference Bank, the Trustee shall promptly appoint or cause to be
appointed another Reference Bank (after consultation with the Depositor). The
Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility to any Person for (i) the
selection of any Reference Bank for purposes of determining LIBOR or (ii) any
inability to retain at least four Reference Banks which is caused by
circumstances beyond its reasonable control.
(i) The Pass-Through Rate for each Class of LIBOR Certificates for
each Interest Accrual Period shall be determined by the Trustee on each
LIBOR Determination Date so long as the LIBOR Certificates are Outstanding
on the basis of LIBOR and the respective formulae appearing in footnotes
corresponding to the LIBOR Certificates in the table relating to the
Certificates in the Preliminary Statement. The Trustee shall not have any
liability or responsibility to any Person for its inability, following a
good-faith reasonable effort, to obtain quotations from the Reference
Banks or to determine the arithmetic mean referred to in the definition of
LIBOR, all as provided for in this Section 4.04 and the definition of
LIBOR. The establishment of LIBOR and each Pass-Through Rate for the LIBOR
Certificates by the Trustee shall (in the absence of manifest error) be
final, conclusive and binding upon each Holder of a Certificate and the
Trustee.
Section 4.05 Allocation of Applied Realized Loss Amounts. Any
Applied Realized Loss Amounts shall be allocated by the Trustee to the most
junior Class of Subordinated Certificates then Outstanding in reduction of the
Class Certificate Balance thereof.
Section 4.06 Supplemental Interest Account. On the Closing Date, the
Trustee shall establish and maintain in its name, a separate non-interest
bearing trust account for the benefit of the holders of the LIBOR Certificates
(the "Supplemental Interest Account") as a part of the Trust Fund. The
Supplemental Interest Account shall be an Eligible Account, and funds on deposit
therein shall be held separate and apart from, and shall not be commingled with,
any other moneys, including, without limitation, other moneys of the Trustee
held pursuant to this Agreement.
On any Distribution Date, Interest Rate Cap Payments, Swap
Termination Payments, Net Swap Payments owed to the Swap Provider and Net Swap
Receipts for that Distribution Date will be deposited into the Supplemental
Interest Account. Funds in the Supplemental Interest Account will be distributed
in the following order of priority:
(i) to the Swap Provider, the sum of (x) all Net Swap Payments and
(y) any Swap Termination Payment (to the extent not previously received by
the Swap Provider as a Replacement Swap Provider Payment), other than a
Defaulted Swap Termination Payment, to the Swap Provider, if any, owed for
that Distribution Date;
(ii) to the Class A Certificates, to pay Accrued Certificate
Interest Distribution Amounts and, if applicable, any Unpaid Interest
Amounts as described in Section 4.02(a)(i), to the extent unpaid from
Available Funds;
(iii) sequentially, to the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-3, Class
M-4, Class M-5, Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3 and Class B-4
Certificates, in that order, to pay Accrued Certificate Interest
Distribution Amounts and, if applicable, any Unpaid Interest Amounts as
described in Section 4.02(a)(i) and (iii), to the extent unpaid from
Available Funds;
(iv) to the LIBOR Certificates, to pay Basis Risk Carry Forward
Amounts as described in Section 4.02(a)(iii)(T), to the extent unpaid from
Available Funds (including Basis Risk Payments on deposit in the Excess
Reserve Fund Account);
(v) sequentially, to the Class A, Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3,
Class M-4, Class M-5, Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3 and Class B-4
Certificates, in that order, to pay principal as described in Section
4.02(a)(ii)(A) or Section 4.02(a)(ii)(B), as applicable, but only to the
extent necessary to restore the Subordinated Amount to the Specified
Subordinated Amount as a result of current or prior Realized Losses not
previously reimbursed, after giving effect to payments and distributions
from Available Funds;
(vi) sequentially, to the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-3, Class
M-4, Class M-5, Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3 and Class B-4
Certificates, in that order, to pay any Unpaid Interest Amounts as
described in Section 4.02(a)(iii), to the extent unpaid from Available
Funds;
(vii) to the Swap Provider, any Defaulted Swap Termination Payment
owed to the Swap Provider for that Distribution Date; and
(viii) to the holders of the Class X Certificates, any remaining
amounts.
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, in the event
that the Interest Rate Swap Agreement is terminated and the Trust enters into a
replacement interest rate swap agreement and the Trust is entitled to receive a
payment from a replacement swap provider, the Trustee shall direct the
replacement swap provider to make such payment (the "Replacement Swap Provider
Payment") to the Supplemental Interest Account. The Supplemental Interest
Account shall pay to the Swap Provider the lesser of (x) the amount so received
and (y) any Swap Termination Payment owed to the Swap Provider (to the extent
not already paid by the Trust) that is being replaced immediately upon receipt
of the Replacement Swap Provider Payment, regardless of whether the date of
receipt thereof is a Distribution Date; provided that to the extent that the
Replacement Swap Provider Payment is less than the Swap Termination Payment owed
to the Swap Provider, any remaining amounts will be paid to the Swap Provider on
the subsequent Distribution Date (unless the Replacement Swap Provider Payment
is paid to the Swap Provider on a Distribution Date, in which case such
remaining amounts will be paid on such Distribution Date) in accordance with the
priority of payments described in Section 4.02 of this Agreement. For the
avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the Swap Provider shall have first
priority to any Replacement Swap Provider Payment over the payment by the Trust
to Certificateholders, any Servicer, any Custodian, any Responsible Party, the
Trustee or any other Person.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Trust receives
a Swap Termination Payment and a successor Swap Provider cannot be obtained,
then the Trustee shall establish a separate, non-interest bearing trust account
as a reserve account within, and constituting a part of, the Supplemental
Interest Account and deposit the Swap Termination Payment into such account. On
each subsequent Distribution Date (so long as funds are available in such
reserve account), the Trustee shall withdraw from the reserve account and
deposit into the Supplemental Interest Account an amount equal to the amount of
any Net Swap Receipt due the Trust (calculated in accordance with the terms of
the original Interest Rate Swap Agreement) and treat such amount as a Net Swap
Receipt for purposes of determining the distributions from the Supplemental
Interest Account. The remaining amount in the reserve account will remain in
that account and not treated as a Swap Termination Payment for purposes of
determining the distributions from the Supplemental Interest Account until the
final Distribution Date.
Upon termination of the Trust, any amounts remaining in the
Supplemental Interest Account shall be distributed pursuant to the priorities
set forth in this Section 4.06.
The Trustee shall account for the Supplemental Interest Account as
an asset of a grantor trust under subpart E, Part I of subchapter J of the Code
and not as an asset of any Trust REMIC created pursuant to this Agreement. The
beneficial owners of the Supplemental Interest Account are the Class X
Certificateholders. For federal income tax purposes, Net Swap Payments and Swap
Termination Payments payable to the Swap Provider shall be deemed to be paid to
the Supplemental Interest Account from the Upper Tier REMIC, first, by the
Holder of the Class X Certificates (in respect of the Class IO Interest and, if
applicable, the Class X Interest) and second, other than any Defaulted Swap
Termination Payment, by the Holders of the applicable Class or Classes of LIBOR
Certificates (in respect of Class IO Shortfalls) as and to the extent provided
in Section 8.13.
Any Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts and, without duplication, Upper
Tier Carry Forward Amounts distributed by the Trustee to the LIBOR
Certificateholders from the Excess Reserve Fund Account or the Supplemental
Interest Account shall be accounted for by the Trustee, for federal income tax
purposes, as amounts paid first to the Holders of the Class X Certificates (in
respect of the Class X Interest or the Class IO Interest, respectively) and then
to the respective Class or Classes of LIBOR Certificates. In addition, the
Trustee shall account for the rights of Holders of each Class of LIBOR
Certificates to receive payments of Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts and,
without duplication, Upper Tier Carry Forward Amounts from the Supplemental
Interest Account (along with Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts payable from the
Excess Reserve Fund Account) and the obligation to pay Class IO Shortfalls to
the Supplemental Interest Account as rights and obligations in a separate
limited recourse notional principal contract between the Class X
Certificateholders and Holders of each such Class.
The Supplemental Interest Account shall be an "outside reserve fund"
for federal income tax purposes and not an asset of any Trust REMIC.
Furthermore, the Holders of the Class X Certificates shall be the beneficial
owners of the Supplemental Interest Account for all federal income tax purposes,
and shall be taxable on all income earned thereon, and any amounts reimbursed
from the Upper Tier REMIC to the Supplemental Interest Account shall be treated
as having been distributed to the Holders of the Class X Certificates.
In the event the Swap Provider does not deliver the Delivery Amount
(as defined in the Interest Rate Swap Agreement) to the Trustee, the Trustee
shall provide notice of such failure to the Swap Provider within one Business
Day of such failure.
With respect to the failure of the Swap Provider to perform any of
its obligations under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, the breach by the Swap
Provider of any of its representations and warranties made pursuant to the
Interest Rate Swap Agreement, or the termination of the Interest Rate Swap
Agreement, the Trustee shall send any notices and make any demands, on behalf of
the Trust as are required under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement upon actual
knowledge of such event.
The Depositor shall cause any replacement swap provider to provide a
copy of the related replacement interest rate swap agreement to the Trustee.
Section 4.07 Supplemental Float Account. On or prior to the first
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain in its name, a
separate trust account for the benefit of the holders of the LIBOR Certificates
(the "Supplemental Float Account") as a part of the Trust Fund. The Supplemental
Float Account shall be an Eligible Account, and funds on deposit therein shall
be held separate and apart from, and shall not be commingled with, any other
moneys, including, without limitation, other moneys of the Trustee held pursuant
to this Agreement. Funds in the Supplement Float Account shall remain
uninvested.
On the Remittance Date, to the extent required pursuant to Section
3.21(c), the Servicer shall remit and report any interest or investment income
earned on funds deposited in the Collection Account and the Trustee shall
deposit such interest or investment income into the Supplemental Float Account.
Funds on deposit in the Supplemental Float Account will be distributed in the
following order of priority:
(i) to the Swap Provider, the sum of (x) all Net Swap Payments and
(y) any Swap Termiantion Payment (to the extent not previously received by
the Swap Provider as a Replacement Swap Provider Payment Payment), other
than a Defaulted Swap Termination Payment, to the Swap Provider, if any,
owed to the Swap Provider and to the extent unpaid from Available Funds
and the Supplemental Interest Account;
(ii) to the Class A Certificates, to pay Accrued Certificate
Interest Distribution Amounts and, if applicable, any Unpaid Interest
Amounts as described in Section 4.02(a)(i), to the extent unpaid from
Available Funds and the Supplemental Interest Account;
(iii) sequentially, to the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-3, Class
M-4, Class M-5, Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3 and Class B-4
Certificates, in that order, to pay Accrued Certificate Interest
Distribution Amounts and, if applicable, any Unpaid Interest Amounts as
described in Section 4.02(a)(i) and (iii), to the extent unpaid from
Available Funds and the Supplemental Interest Account;
(iv) sequentially, to the Class A, Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3,
Class M-4, Class M-5, Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3 and Class B-4
Certificates, in that order, to pay principal as described in Section
4.02(a)(ii)(A) or Section 4.02(a)(ii)(B), as applicable, but only to the
extent necessary to restore the Subordinated Amount to the Specified
Subordinated Amount as a result of current or prior Realized Losses not
previously reimbursed, after giving effect to payments and distributions
from Available Funds and the Supplemental Interest Account;
(v) sequentially, to the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-3, Class M-4,
Class M-5, Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3 and Class B-4 Certificates, in
that order, to pay any Unpaid Interest Amounts as described in Section
4.02(a)(iii), to the extent unpaid from Available Funds and the
Supplemental Interest Account;
(vi) to the Swap Provider, any Defaulted Swap Termination Payment
owed to the Swap Provider and the extent unpaid from Available Funds and
the Supplemental Interest Account; and
(vii) if funds on deposit in the Supplemental Interest Account have
reached an amount equal to $6,000, to the holders of the Class R-I
Certificates, any remaining amounts.
Upon termination of the Trust, any amounts remaining in the
Supplemental Float Account shall be distributed pursuant to the priorities set
forth in this Section 4.07.
ARTICLE V
THE CERTIFICATES
Section 5.01 The Certificates. The Certificates shall be
substantially in the forms attached hereto as exhibits. The Certificates shall
be issuable in registered form, in the minimum denominations, integral multiples
in excess thereof (except that one Certificate in each Class may be issued in a
different amount) and aggregate denominations per Class set forth in the
Preliminary Statement.
The Depositor hereby directs the Trustee to register the Class X and
Class P Certificates in the name of the Depositor or its designee. On a date as
to which the Depositor notifies the Trustee, the Trustee shall transfer the
Class X and Class P Certificates in the name of the NIM Trustee, or such other
name or names as the Depositor shall request, and to deliver the Class X and
Class P Certificates to the NIM Trustee or to such other Person or Persons as
the Depositor shall request.
Subject to Section 9.02 respecting the final distribution on the
Certificates, on each Distribution Date the Trustee shall make distributions to
each Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date either (x) by wire
transfer in immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a bank
or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Holder has so
notified the Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the related Record
Date or (y) by check mailed by first class mail to such Certificateholder at the
address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate Register.
The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature
on behalf of the Trustee by an authorized officer. Certificates bearing the
manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time such
signatures were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trustee shall bind
the Trustee, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to
be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of any such
Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of such Certificate. No
Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid
for any purpose, unless authenticated by the Trustee by manual signature, and
such authentication upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the
only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly executed and delivered
hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication. On
the Closing Date, the Trustee shall authenticate the Certificates to be issued
at the direction of the Depositor, or any Affiliate thereof.
Section 5.02 Certificate Register; Registration of Transfer and
Exchange of Certificates. (a) The Trustee shall maintain, or cause to be
maintained in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.06, a Certificate
Register for the Trust Fund in which, subject to the provisions of subsections
(b) and (c) below and 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. Upon surrender for registration of
transfer of any Certificate, the Trustee shall execute and deliver, in the name
of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of the
same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest.
At the option of a Certificateholder, Certificates may be exchanged
for other Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and
evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest upon surrender of the
Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency of the Trustee. 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 registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by the
Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
No service charge to the Certificateholders shall be made for any
registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but 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 may be required.
All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange shall be cancelled and subsequently destroyed by the Trustee in
accordance with the Trustee's customary procedures.
(b) No transfer of a Private Certificate shall be made unless such
transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the
registration requirements under the Securities Act and such state securities
laws. In determining whether a transfer is being made pursuant to an effective
registration statement, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely solely upon a
written notice to such effect from the Depositor. Except with respect to (i) the
transfer of the Class X or Class P Certificates or the Residual Certificates to
the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor, (ii) the transfer of the Class X
or Class P Certificates to the NIM Issuer or the NIM Trustee, or (iii) a
transfer of the Class X or Class P Certificates from the NIM Issuer or the NIM
Trustee to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor, in the event that a
transfer of a Private Certificate which is a Physical Certificate is to be made
in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act and such laws, in order to
assure compliance with the Securities Act and such laws, the Certificateholder
desiring to effect such transfer shall certify to the Trustee in writing the
facts surrounding the transfer in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit H
(the "Transferor Certificate") and either (i) there shall be delivered to the
Trustee a letter in substantially the form of Exhibit I (the "Rule 144A Letter")
or (ii) there shall be delivered to the Trustee at the expense of the transferor
an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer may be made without registration under
the Securities Act. In the event that a transfer of a Private Certificate which
is a Book-Entry Certificate is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the
Securities Act and such laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities
Act and such laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer will
be deemed to have made as of the transfer date each of the certifications set
forth in the Transferor Certificate in respect of such Certificate and the
transferee will be deemed to have made as of the transfer date each of the
certifications set forth in the Rule 144A Letter in respect of such Certificate,
in each case as if such Certificate were evidenced by a Physical Certificate. As
directed by the Depositor, the Trustee shall provide to any Private
Certificateholder and any prospective transferee designated by any such Holder,
information regarding the related Certificates and the Mortgage Loans and such
other information as shall be necessary to satisfy the condition to eligibility
set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) for transfer of any such Certificate without
registration thereof under the Securities Act pursuant to the registration
exemption provided by Rule 144A. The Depositor and the Servicer shall cooperate
with the Trustee in providing the Rule 144A information referenced in the
preceding sentence, including providing to the Trustee such information
regarding the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans and other matters regarding the
Trust Fund as the Trustee shall reasonably request to meet its obligation under
the preceding sentence. Each Private Certificateholder desiring to effect such
transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Servicer
and the Depositor 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.
Except with respect to (i) the transfer of the Class X or Class P
Certificates or the Residual Certificates to the Depositor or an Affiliate of
the Depositor, (ii) the transfer of the Class X or Class P Certificates to the
NIM Issuer or the NIM Trustee, or (iii) a transfer of the Class X or Class P
Certificates from the NIM Issuer or the NIM Trustee to the Depositor or an
Affiliate of the Depositor, no transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate shall
be made unless the Trustee shall have received either (i) a representation from
the transferee of such Certificate acceptable to and in form and substance
satisfactory to the Trustee (in the event such Certificate is a Private
Certificate or a Residual Certificate, such requirement is satisfied only by the
Trustee's receipt of a representation letter from the transferee substantially
in the form of Exhibit I), to the effect that such transferee is not an employee
benefit plan or arrangement subject to Section 406 of ERISA, a plan subject to
Section 4975 of the Code or a plan subject to any Federal, state or local law
("Similar Law") materially similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the
Code, nor a Person acting on behalf of any such plan or arrangement nor using
the assets of any such plan or arrangement to effect such transfer, or (ii) in
the case of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate other than a Residual Certificate or
a Class P Certificate that has been the subject of an ERISA-Qualifying
Underwriting, and the purchaser is an insurance company, a representation that
the purchaser is an insurance company that is purchasing such Certificates with
funds contained in an "insurance company general account" (as such term is
defined in Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 ("PTCE
95-60")) and that the purchase and holding of such Certificates are covered
under Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 or (iii) in the case of any such
ERISA-Restricted Certificate other than a Residual Certificate or Class P
Certificate presented for registration in the name of an employee benefit plan
subject to Title I of ERISA, a plan or arrangement subject to Section 4975 of
the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent enactments), or a plan
subject to Similar Law, or a trustee of any such plan or any other Person acting
on behalf of any such plan or arrangement or using such plan's or arrangement's
assets, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee and the Servicer,
which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Trustee,
the Servicer or the Trust Fund, addressed to the Trustee, to the effect that the
purchase or holding of such ERISA-Restricted Certificate will not constitute or
result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction within the meaning of ERISA,
Section 4975 of the Code or any Similar Law and will not subject the Depositor,
the Trustee or the Servicer to any obligation in addition to those expressly
undertaken in this Agreement or to any liability. For purposes of the preceding
sentence, with respect to an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is not a Physical
Certificate or a Residual Certificate, in the event the representation letter
referred to in the preceding sentence is not furnished, such representation
shall be deemed to have been made to the Trustee by the transferee's (including
an initial acquirer's) acceptance of the ERISA-Restricted Certificates.
Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, (a) any purported transfer
of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate, other than a Class P Certificate or Residual
Certificate, to or on behalf of an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA, the
Code or Similar Law without the delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to the Trustee as described above shall be void and of no effect
and (b) any purported transfer of a Class P Certificate or Residual Certificate
to a transferee that does not make the representation in clause (i) above shall
be void and of no effect.
None of the Residual Certificates or Class P Certificates may be
sold to any employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, any plan subject
to Section 4975 of the Code, or any plan subject to any Similar Law or any
Person investing on behalf or with plan assets of such plan.
To the extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not
limited to, ERISA), the Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for
any registration of transfer of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is in fact
not permitted by this Section 5.02(b) or for making any payments due on such
Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to
such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was
registered by the Trustee in accordance with the foregoing requirements.
As long as the Interest Rate Swap Agreement is in effect, each
beneficial owner of a Certificate other than an ERISA Restricted Certificate, or
any interest therein, shall be deemed to have represented that either (i) it is
not a Plan or (ii) the acquisition and holding of the Certificate are eligible
for the exemptive relief available under at least one of (i) Department of Labor
Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE") 84-14 (for transactions by
independent "qualified professional asset managers"), (ii) PTCE 91-38 (for
transactions by bank collective investment funds), (iii) XXXX 00-0 (for
transactions by insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTCE 95-60 (for
transactions by insurance company general accounts) or (iv) PTCE 96-23 (for
transactions effected by "in-house asset managers") or similar exemption under
Similar Law.
(c) 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
the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:
(i) 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;
(ii) No Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate may be
registered on the Closing Date or thereafter transferred, and the Trustee
shall not register the Transfer of any Residual Certificate unless, in
addition to the certificates required to be delivered to the Trustee under
subparagraph (b) above, the Trustee shall have been furnished with an
affidavit (a "Transfer Affidavit") of the initial owner or the proposed
transferee in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G;
(iii) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate shall agree (A) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit from
any other Person to whom such Person attempts to Transfer its Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate, (B) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit
from any Person for whom such Person is acting as nominee, trustee or
agent in connection with any Transfer of a Residual Certificate and (C)
not to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate or to
cause the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to
any other Person if it has actual knowledge that such Person is a
Non-Permitted Transferee;
(iv) Any attempted or purported Transfer of any Ownership Interest
in a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section
5.02(c) shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the
purported Transferee. If any purported transferee shall become a Holder of
a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section
5.02(c), then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored to
all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of
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 Section 5.02(b) and this
Section 5.02(c) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the
Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder
under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the Transfer was
registered after receipt of the related Transfer Affidavit, Transferor
Certificate and the Rule 144A Letter. The Trustee shall be entitled but
not obligated to recover from any Holder of a Residual Certificate that
was in fact a Non-Permitted Transferee at the time it became a Holder or,
at such subsequent time as it became a Non-Permitted Transferee, all
payments made on such Residual Certificate at and after either such time.
Any such payments so recovered by the Trustee shall be paid and delivered
by the Trustee to the last preceding Permitted Transferee of such
Certificate; and
(v) The Depositor shall use its best efforts to make available, upon
receipt of written request from the Trustee, all information necessary to
compute any tax imposed under Section 860E(e) of the Code as a result of a
Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any Holder
who is a Non-Permitted Transferee.
The restrictions on Transfers of a Residual Certificate set forth in
this Section 5.02(c) shall cease to apply (and the applicable portions of the
legend on a Residual Certificate may be deleted) with respect to Transfers
occurring after delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel, which Opinion
of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund, the Trustee or the
Servicer, to the effect that the elimination of such restrictions will not cause
any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates
are Outstanding or result in the imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund, a
Certificateholder or another Person. Each Person holding or acquiring any
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate hereby consents to any amendment of
this Agreement which, based on an Opinion of Counsel furnished to the Trustee,
is reasonably necessary (a) to ensure that the record ownership of, or any
beneficial interest in, a Residual Certificate is not transferred, directly or
indirectly, to a Person that is a Non-Permitted Transferee and (b) to provide
for a means to compel the Transfer of a Residual Certificate which is held by a
Person that is a Non-Permitted Transferee to a Holder that is a Permitted
Transferee.
(d) The preparation and delivery of all certificates and opinions
referred to above in this Section 5.02 in connection with transfer shall be at
the expense of the parties to such transfers.
(e) Except as provided below, the Book-Entry Certificates shall at
all times remain registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and at
all times: (i) registration of the Certificates may not be transferred by the
Trustee except to another Depository; (ii) the Depository shall maintain
book-entry records with respect to the Certificate Owners and with respect to
ownership and transfers of such Book-Entry Certificates; (iii) ownership and
transfers of registration of the Book-Entry Certificates on the books of the
Depository shall be governed by applicable rules established by the Depository;
(iv) the Depository may collect its usual and customary fees, charges and
expenses from its Depository Participants; (v) the Trustee shall deal with the
Depository, Depository Participants and indirect participating firms as
representatives of the Certificate Owners of the Book-Entry Certificates for
purposes of exercising the rights of holders under this Agreement, and requests
and directions for and votes of such representatives shall not be deemed to be
inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners; and
(vi) the Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon
information furnished by the Depository with respect to its Depository
Participants and furnished by the Depository Participants with respect to
indirect participating firms and persons shown on the books of such indirect
participating firms as direct or indirect Certificate Owners.
All transfers by Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates shall
be made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository
Participant or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owner. Each
Depository Participant shall only transfer Book-Entry Certificates of
Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as
agent in accordance with the Depository's normal procedures.
If (x) (i) the Depository or the Depositor advises the Trustee in
writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge
its responsibilities as Depository, and (ii) the Trustee or the Depositor is
unable to locate a qualified successor, or (y) the Depositor notifies the
Depository of its intent to terminate the book-entry system through the
Depository and, upon receipt of notice of such intent from the Depository, the
Depository Participants holding beneficial interests in the Book-Entry
Certificates agree to initiate such termination, the Trustee shall notify all
Certificate Owners, through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such event
and of the availability of definitive, fully registered Certificates (the
"Definitive Certificates") to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon
surrender to the Trustee of the related Class of Certificates by the Depository,
accompanied by the instructions from the Depository for registration, the
Trustee shall issue the Definitive Certificates. None of the Servicer, the
Depositor or the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such
instruction and each may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying
on, such instructions. The Depositor shall provide the Trustee with an adequate
inventory of Certificates to facilitate the issuance and transfer of Definitive
Certificates. 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;
provided, that the Trustee shall not by virtue of its assumption of such
obligations become liable to any party for any act or failure to act of the
Depository.
(f) Each Private Certificate presented or surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer and accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8IMY (and
all appropriate attachments) or W-9 in form satisfactory to the Trustee, duly
executed by the Certificateholder or his attorney duly authorized in writing
(with copies directly (other than with respect to a Residual Certificate) to the
Swap Provider and the Cap Provider). The Trustee shall forward any such IRS Form
(other than with respect to a Residual Certificate) received to the Swap
Provider or Cap Provider. Each Private Certificateholder by its purchase of a
Certificate is deemed to consent to any such IRS Form being so forwarded. The
Trustee shall be required to forward any tax certification received by it to the
Swap Provider and Cap Provider at the last known address provided to it, and,
subject to Section 8.01, shall not be liable for the receipt of such tax
certification by the Swap Provider or Cap Provider, nor any action taken or not
taken by the Swap Provider or Cap Provider with respect to such tax
certification. Upon the request of the Swap Provider, the Trustee shall forward
the name and address and Percentage Interest held in the Private Certificates
for each Private Certificateholder to the Swap Provider and the Cap Provider at
the last known address provided to it. The Trustee shall have no duty to take
any action to correct any misstatement or omission in any tax certification
provided to it and forwarded to the Swap Provider and Cap Provider; provided
however, if the Trustee has actual knowledge that a tax certificate or name and
address information provided to it by a Private Certificateholder contains a
misstatement or omission (including by reason of the Swap Provider or the Cap
Provider informing it of the misstatement or omission), it shall notify the Swap
Provider of the misstatement or omission, and when it receives a corrected form
or name and address information from the Holder of the Private Certificate it
shall forward the corrected form and/or name and address information to the Swap
Provider and the Cap Provider.
(g) Each Private Certificate presented or surrendered for
registration of transfer or exchange shall be canceled and subsequently disposed
of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary practice. No service charge
shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Private
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 Private Certificates.
Section 5.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If
(a) 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 (b) there is delivered to the Depositor, the Servicer and the
Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold each of
them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to 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 Certificate, a new Certificate of like
Class, tenor and Percentage Interest. In connection with the issuance of any new
Certificate under this Section 5.03, 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 5.03 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of
ownership, 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 Servicer, the Trustee, the
Depositor and any agent of the Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustee may treat
the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such
Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in this
Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Servicer, the
Trustee, the Depositor, nor any agent of the Servicer, the Depositor or the
Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
Section 5.05 Access to List of Certificateholders' Names and
Addresses. If three or more Certificateholders (a) request such information in
writing from the Trustee, (b) state that such Certificateholders desire to
communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under
this Agreement or under the Certificates and (c) provide a copy of the
communication which such Certificateholders propose to transmit, or if the
Depositor or Servicer shall request such information in writing from the
Trustee, then the Trustee shall, within ten Business Days after the receipt of
such request, provide the Depositor, the Servicer or such Certificateholders at
such recipients' expense the most recent list of the Certificateholders of such
Trust Fund held by the Trustee, if any. The Depositor and every
Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agree that the
Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such
information as to the list of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of
the source from which such information was derived.
Section 5.06 Maintenance of Office or Agency. The Trustee will
maintain or cause to be maintained at its expense an office or offices or agency
or agencies where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer
or exchange. The Trustee initially designates its offices located at DB Services
Tennessee, 000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000-0000, Attention:
Transfer Unit. The Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the
Certificateholders of any change in such location of any such office or agency.

Servicer. The Depositor and the Servicer shall each be liable in accordance
herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically and respectively
imposed upon and undertaken by them herein.
Section 6.02 Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor or the
Servicer. (a) The Depositor and the Servicer will each keep in full effect its
existence, rights and franchises as a corporation or federally chartered savings
bank, as the case may be, under the laws of the United States or under the laws
of one of the states thereof and will each 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, or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform
its respective duties under this Agreement.
(b) The Servicer is and shall continue to be an institution which is
a Xxxxxx Xxx-approved and Xxxxxxx Mac-approved seller/servicer in good standing,
shall maintain a net worth of at least $30,000,000 (as determined in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles) and shall maintain its license to
do business or service residential mortgage loans in any jurisdictions in which
the Mortgaged Properties are located.
(c) Any Person into which the Depositor or the Servicer may be
merged or consolidated, or 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 (including a sale of substantially all of the assets
of the Servicer) 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 make the covenant set
forth in Section 6.02(b). As a condition to the succession to the Servicer under
this Agreement by any Person (i) into which the Servicer may be merged or
consolidated, or (ii) which may be appointed as a successor to a Servicer, the
Servicer shall provide to the Depositor, at least 15 calendar days prior to the

timely report the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act
(if such reports under the Exchange Act are required to be filed under the
Exchange Act).
Section 6.03 Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the Servicer
and Others. None of the Depositor, the Servicer or any of their respective
directors, officers, employees or agents shall be under any liability to 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 representations or warranties
made by it herein or protect the Depositor, the Servicer or any such Person from
any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reasons of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence (or gross negligence in the case of the
Depositor) in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of
obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor, its Affiliates, the Servicer
and any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents may rely in
good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and
submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor,
its Affiliates, the Servicer and any of their respective directors, officers,
employees or agents shall be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless
against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any audit,
controversy or judicial proceeding relating to a governmental taxing authority
or any legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates other than
any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith or negligence (or gross negligence in the case of the Depositor) in the
performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of
obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor shall not be under any
obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not
incidental to its respective duties hereunder and which in its opinion may
involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Depositor
may in its discretion undertake any such action (or direct the Trustee to
undertake such actions pursuant to Section 2.03 for the benefit of the
Certificateholders) that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this
Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and interests of the
Trustee and the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses
and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be
expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Fund, and the Depositor shall be
entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of the Collection Account.
Neither the Servicer nor any of the officers, employees or agents of
the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trustee or the Depositor for
any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith
pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that this provision shall not
protect the Servicer or any such person against any breach of warranties or
representations made herein, or failure to perform its obligations in compliance
with the terms of this Agreement, or any liability which would otherwise be
imposed by reason of any breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
The Servicer and any officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good
faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by
any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Servicer shall not be
under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is
not incidental to its duties to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with
this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expenses or
liability; provided, however, that the Servicer may undertake any such action
which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect to this Agreement and the
rights and duties of the parties hereto. In such event, the legal expenses and
costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses,
costs and liabilities for which the Trust Fund will be liable, and the Servicer
shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of the Collection Account.
Section 6.04 Limitation on Resignation of the Servicer. Subject to
Section 6.02 and 7.01, the Servicer shall not assign this Agreement or resign
from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except by mutual consent of
the Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee or (i) upon the determination that
the performance of its obligations or duties hereunder are no longer permissible
under applicable law or are in material conflict by reason of applicable law
with any other activities carried on by it or its subsidiaries or Affiliates,
the other activities of the Servicer so causing such a conflict being of a type
and nature carried on by the Servicer or its subsidiaries or Affiliates at the
date of this Agreement or (ii) upon satisfaction of the following conditions:
(a) the Servicer has proposed a successor servicer to the Trustee and the
Depositor and (b) each Rating Agency shall have delivered a letter to the
Trustee and the Depositor prior to the appointing of the successor servicer
stating that the proposed appointment of such successor servicer as Servicer
hereunder will not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the then current
rating of the Certificates; provided, however, that no such resignation by the
Servicer shall become effective until such successor servicer or, in the case of
(i) above, the Trustee shall have assumed the Servicer's responsibilities and
obligations hereunder or the Trustee shall have designated a successor servicer
in accordance with Section 7.02. Any such resignation shall not relieve the
Servicer of responsibility for any of the obligations specified in Sections 7.01
and 7.02 as obligations that survive the resignation or termination of the
Servicer. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer
pursuant to (i) above shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect
delivered to the Depositor and the Trustee which Opinion of Counsel shall be in
form and substance acceptable to the Depositor and the Trustee. No such
resignation shall become effective until a successor shall have assumed in
writing the Servicer's responsibilities and obligations hereunder.
Section 6.05 Additional Indemnification by the Servicer; Third Party
Claims.
(a) The Servicer shall indemnify the Responsible Party, the Sponsor,
the Depositor, the Custodian, the Trustee and any Affiliate, director, officer,
employee or agent of the Depositor and hold them harmless against any and all
third party claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable
and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees
and expenses that any of them may sustain in any way related to (i) any breach
by the Servicer, of any of its representations and warranties referred to in
Section 2.03(a), (ii) any error in any tax or information return prepared by the
Servicer, or (iii) the failure of the Servicer to perform its duties and service
the Mortgage Loans in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (including,
without limitation, the failure to deliver accurate and complete information on
a timely basis pursuant to Section 4.03(d)). The Servicer immediately shall
notify the Depositor, the Custodian, the Responsible Party and the Trustee if a
claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage
Loans, assume (with the prior written consent of the Depositor, the Custodian
and the Trustee) the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in
connection therewith, including counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and
satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or the
Responsible Party, the Depositor, the Custodian or the Trustee in respect of
such claim.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, the Servicer shall indemnify the Depositor, the Sponsor, the Trustee
and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the Sponsor or
the Trustee and hold them harmless against any and all claims, losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related
costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that any of them may
sustain in any way related to any failure by the Servicer or any Subservicer
engaged by the Servicer or any Subcontractor utilized by the Servicer to deliver
any information, report, certification or accountants' letter when and as
required under Sections 3.22, 3.23, 6.02 or 8.12, including without limitation
any failure by the Servicer to identify pursuant to Section 3.02(e) any
Subcontractor "participating in the servicing function" within the meaning of
Item 1122 of Regulation AB.
(c) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.05 is
unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless any Person entitled to
indemnification thereunder, then the Servicer shall contribute to the amount
paid or payable by the Person entitled to indemnification as a result of the
losses, claims, damages or liabilities of such Person in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such Person on the one hand and the
Servicer, on the other, in connection with the Servicer's obligations pursuant
to this Section 6.05. This Section 6.05 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement or the earlier resignation or removal of the Servicer.
ARTICLE VII
DEFAULT
Section 7.01 Events of Default. "Event of Default," wherever used
herein, means any one of the following events:
(a) any failure by the Servicer to remit to the Trustee any payment
required to be made under the terms of 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 or by the Trustee, or to the Servicer, the Depositor
and the Trustee by Certificateholders entitled to at least 25% of the Voting
Rights in the Certificates; or
(b) the 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

a period of forty-five days (except that (x) such number of days shall be
fifteen in the case of a failure to pay any premium for any insurance policy
required to be maintained under this Agreement and (y) such number of days shall
be ten in the case of a failure to observe or perform any of the obligations set
forth in Sections 3.02, 3.22, 3.23, 6.02 or 8.12) 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 by the Trustee, or to
the Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee by Certificateholders entitled to at
least 25% of the Voting Rights in the Certificates and (ii) actual knowledge of
such failure by a Servicing Officer of the Servicer; or
(c) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority
having jurisdiction for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or
liquidator in any insolvency, bankruptcy, readjustment of debt, marshalling of
assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or
liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer and
such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a
period of sixty consecutive days; or
(d) the Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator
or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, bankruptcy, readjustment of debt,
marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to
the Servicer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or
(e) the Servicer shall admit in writing its inability generally to
pay its debts as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any
applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the
benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or
(f) a breach of any representation and warranty of the Servicer
referred to in Section 2.03(a), which materially and adversely affects the
interests of the Certificateholders and which continues unremedied for a period
of thirty days after the date upon which written notice of such breach is given
to the Servicer by the Trustee or by the Depositor, or to the Servicer, the
Trustee and the Depositor by Certificateholders entitled to at least 25% of the
Voting Rights in the Certificates; or
(g) Fitch reduces its servicer rating of the Servicer to "RPS2-" or
lower, Xxxxx'x reduces its servicer rating of the Servicer to "SQ3" or lower, or
Standard & Poor's reduces its servicer rating of the Servicer to "Average" or
lower.
If an Event of Default described in clauses (a) through (g) of this
Section 7.01 shall occur, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such
Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Trustee may, and at the
written direction of a majority of the Voting Rights, the Trustee shall, by
notice in writing to the Servicer (with a copy to each Rating Agency), terminate
all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and in
and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof, other than its rights as a
Certificateholder hereunder; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be
required to give written notice to the Servicer of the occurrence of an Event of
Default described in clauses (b) through (g) of this Section 7.01 unless and
until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of the
occurrence of such an event; provided further, that the Depositor shall give
written notice to the Servicer of the occurrence of an Event of Default
described in clause (g) of this Section 7.01 upon obtaining actual knowledge of
the occurrence of such an event. In the event that a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee has actual knowledge of the occurrence of an event of default described
in clause (a) of this Section 7.01, the Trustee shall give written notice to the
Servicer of the occurrence of such an event within one Business Day of the first
day on which such Responsible Officer obtains actual knowledge of such
occurrence; provided, that if such failure is the failure to make a P&I Advance,
the Trustee shall send such notice of termination and, if the Event of Default
of the Servicer was the failure to make a P&I Advance, the Trustee, as successor
servicer, shall make such P&I Advance for distribution on the related
Distribution Date. On and after the receipt by the Servicer of such written
notice, all authority and power of the Servicer hereunder, whether with respect
to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee.
Subject to Section 7.02, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to
execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or
otherwise, 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. Unless
expressly provided in such written notice, no such termination shall affect any
obligation of the Servicer to pay amounts owed pursuant to Article VIII. The
Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of
the Servicer's responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without
limitation, the transfer to the Trustee of all cash amounts which shall at the
time be credited to the Collection Account, or thereafter be received with
respect to the Mortgage Loans.
Notwithstanding any termination of the activities of the Servicer
hereunder, the Servicer shall be entitled to receive from the Trust Fund payment
of all accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees due to the Servicer prior to such
termination, and reimbursement for all outstanding Advances made by the Servicer
on or prior to the termination of the Servicer. Except to the extent provided by
the following sentence, any successor Servicer shall not be permitted to pay
itself the Servicing Fee due to it or to reimburse itself directly for Advances
made by it as otherwise permitted by Sections 3.11(a)(ii), (iii), (vi) or (vii)
if the terminated Servicer has not been paid Servicing Fees due to the
terminated Servicer and been fully reimbursed for Advances made by the
terminated Servicer. The successor Servicer is hereby authorized to pay to the
terminated Servicer (or the related Advancing Person in accordance with Section
11.11) and itself, as applicable, all Servicing Fees due to the terminated
Servicer and the successor Servicer, and to reimburse the terminated Servicer
and itself for all Advances made by them from the Collection Account to the same
extent the terminated Servicer or successor Servicer would have been permitted
to pay itself the Servicing Fees due to it or to reimburse itself for such
Advances in accordance with Sections 3.11(a)(ii), (iii), (vi) or (vii). All
Advances made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed made and
shall be reimbursed on a "first in-first out" (FIFO) basis. At such time as the
terminated Servicer has been paid all Servicing Fees due to it and been
reimbursed for all Advances made by it, the successor Servicer shall be
permitted to pay itself the Servicing Fee due to such successor servicer and to
reimburse itself directly for Advances made by such successor servicer in
accordance with Sections 3.11(a)(ii), (iii), (vi) or (vii).
Section 7.02 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor. On and after
the time the Servicer receives a notice of termination pursuant to Section 3.24
or Section 7.01, the Trustee shall, subject to and to the extent provided in
Section 3.05, be the successor to the Servicer in its capacity as servicer under
this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall
be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto
placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof and applicable law
including the obligation to make P&I Advances and Servicing Advances, pursuant
to Section 3.24 or Section 7.01. It is understood and acknowledged by the
parties hereto that there will be a period of transition before the transfer of
servicing obligations is fully effective. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Trustee will have a period (not to exceed 90 days) to complete the transfer of
all servicing data and correct or manipulate such servicing data as may be
required by the Trustee to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the
servicing data or otherwise enable the Trustee to service the Mortgage Loans in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. As compensation therefor, the
Trustee shall be entitled to all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans that the
Servicer would have been entitled to charge to the Collection Account if the
Servicer had continued to act hereunder including, if the Servicer was receiving
the Servicing Fee, the Servicing Fee and, subject to Section 3.21(c), the income
on investments or gain related to the Collection Account which the Servicer
would be entitled to receive (in addition to income on investments or gain
related to the Distribution Account for the benefit of the Trustee during the
Trustee Float Period). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee has become
the successor to the Servicer in accordance with Section 7.01, the Trustee may,
if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is prohibited by applicable
law from making P&I Advances and Servicing Advances pursuant to Section 4.01, if
it is otherwise unable to so act or at the written request of Certificateholders
entitled to at least a majority of the Voting Rights, appoint, or petition a
court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established mortgage loan
servicing institution the appointment of which does not adversely affect the
then current rating of the Certificates by each Rating Agency, 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. Any successor
to the Servicer shall make the covenant set forth in Section 6.02(b). Any
successor to the Servicer shall be an institution which is willing to service
the Mortgage Loans and which executes and delivers to the Depositor and the
Trustee an agreement accepting such delegation and assignment, containing an
assumption by such Person of the rights, powers, duties, responsibilities,
obligations and liabilities of the Servicer (other than liabilities of the
Servicer under Section 6.03 incurred prior to termination of the Servicer under
Section 7.01), with like effect as if originally named as a party to this
Agreement; provided, that each Rating Agency acknowledges that its rating of the
Certificates in effect immediately prior to such assignment and delegation will
not be qualified or reduced, as a result of such assignment and delegation.
Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer hereunder, the Trustee,
unless the Trustee is prohibited by law from so acting, shall, subject to
Section 3.05, act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with
such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the
compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such
successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in
excess of the Servicing Fee Rate and amounts paid to the Servicer from
investments (subject to Section 3.21(c)). The Trustee and such successor
Servicer shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be
necessary to effectuate any such succession. Neither the Trustee nor any other
successor to the Servicer shall be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason
of any failure to make, or any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or
any portion thereof or any failure to perform, or any delay in performing, any
duties or responsibilities hereunder, in either case caused by the failure of
the Servicer to deliver or provide, or any delay in delivering or providing, any
cash, information, documents or records to it.
In the event that the Servicer is terminated pursuant to Section
7.01, the terminated Servicer shall be responsible for the servicing transfer,
provide notices to the Mortgagors, arrange for and transfer the Servicing Files
to a successor Servicer and pay all of its own out-of-pocket costs and expenses
at its own expense. In addition, in the event that the Servicer is terminated
pursuant to Section 7.01, the terminated Servicer shall pay all reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses of a servicing transfer incurred by parties
other than the terminated Servicer promptly upon presentation of reasonable
documentation of such costs. If the Trustee is the terminated Servicer (except
in the case where the Trustee in its role as successor Servicer is being
terminated pursuant to Section 7.01 by reason of an Event of Default caused
solely by the Trustee as the successor Servicer and not by the predecessor
Servicer's actions or omissions), such costs shall be paid by the prior
terminated Servicer promptly upon presentation of reasonable documentation of
such costs. If the terminated Servicer defaults in its obligation to pay such
costs and expenses, the same 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 Trust Fund.
Any successor to the Servicer as servicer shall give notice to the
Mortgagors of such change of servicer and shall, during the term of its service
as servicer, maintain in force the policy or policies that the Servicer is
required to maintain pursuant to Section 3.13.
Section 7.03 Notification to Certificateholders. (a) Upon any
termination of or appointment of a successor to the Servicer, the Trustee shall
give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders and each Rating Agency.
(b) Within 60 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the
Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Certificateholders and each Rating Agency
notice of each such Event of Default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such
event shall have been cured or waived.
ARTICLE VIII
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE
Section 8.01 Duties of the Trustee. The Trustee, before the
occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing of all Events of Default
that may have occurred, shall undertake to perform such duties and only such
duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. In case an Event of
Default has occurred and remains uncured, 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.
The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates,
statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished
to the Trustee that are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they are in
the form required by this Agreement. The Trustee shall not be responsible for
the accuracy or content of any resolution, certificate, statement, opinion,
report, document, order, or other instrument.
No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the
Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure
to act or its own willful misconduct.
Unless an Event of Default known to the Trustee has occurred and is
continuing:
(a) 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 the duties and obligations specifically set
forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into
this Agreement against the Trustee, and the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to
the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed
therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and
conforming to the requirements of this Agreement which it believes in good faith
to be genuine and to have been duly executed by the proper authorities
respecting any matters arising hereunder;
(b) the Trustee shall not be liable for an error of judgment made in
good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee,
unless it is finally proven that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the
pertinent facts; and
(c) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
taken, suffered, or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with
the direction of the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the
Voting Rights of Certificates relating to the time, method, and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising
any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee under this Agreement.
The Trustee shall be permitted to utilize one or more Subcontractors
for the performance of certain of its obligations under this Agreement, provided
that the Trustee complies with Section 3.02(e) as if the Trustee were a
"Servicer" pursuant to that Section. The Trustee shall indemnify the Depositor,
the Sponsor and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the
Sponsor and hold them harmless against any and all claims, losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related
costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that any of them may
sustain in any way related to the failure of the Trustee to perform any of its
obligations under Section 3.22 or Section 3.23, including without limitation any
failure by the Trustee to identify pursuant to Section 3.02(e) any Subcontractor
that is a Servicing Function Participant. This indemnity shall survive the
termination of this Agreement or the earlier resignation or removal of the
Trustee.
Section 8.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Custodian and the
Trustee. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
(a) the Custodian and the Trustee may request and rely upon and
shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution,
Officer's Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order,
appraisal, bond or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to
have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties and neither the
Custodian nor the Trustee shall have any responsibility to ascertain or confirm
the genuineness of any signature of any such party or parties;
(b) the Custodian and the Trustee may consult with counsel,
financial advisers or accountants and the advice of any such counsel, financial
advisers or accountants 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 advice or
Opinion of Counsel;
(c) neither the Custodian nor the Trustee shall be 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 nor shall either the Trustee or the Custodian be liable for acts
or omissions of the other;
(d) 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 Holders of
Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights allocated to each
Class of Certificates;
(e) 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;
(f) neither the Custodian nor the Trustee shall be required to risk
or expend its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or
powers hereunder if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that
repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is
not assured to it;
(g) the Trustee shall not be liable for any loss on any investment
of funds pursuant to this Agreement (other than in its corporate capacity as
obligor of the investment security and with respect to the investment of funds
in the Distribution Account during the Trustee Float Period);
(h) unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge
of the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Trustee shall not be deemed to
have knowledge of an Event of Default, until a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee shall have received written notice thereof; and
(i) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
trusts, rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to institute, conduct
or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order
or direction of any of the Certificateholders, pursuant to this Agreement,
unless such Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable
security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses
and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby.
Section 8.03 Trustee and Custodian Not Liable for Certificates or
Mortgage Loans. The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates shall be
taken as the statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no
responsibility for their correctness. Neither the Trustee nor the Custodian
makes any representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or
of the Certificates or of any Mortgage Loan or related document other than with
respect to the Trustee, the Trustee's execution and authentication of the
Certificates. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by
the Depositor or the Servicer of any funds paid to the Depositor or the Servicer
in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the
Collection Account by the Depositor or the Servicer.
The Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing or recording any
financing or continuation statement in any public office at any time or to
otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien
granted to it hereunder (unless the Trustee shall have become the successor
Servicer).
The Trustee executes the Certificates not in its individual capacity
but solely as Trustee of the Trust Fund created by this Agreement, in the
exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it by this
Agreement. Each of the undertakings and agreements made on the part of the
Trustee on behalf of the Trust Fund in the Certificates is made and intended not
as a personal undertaking or agreement by the Trustee but is made and intended
for the purpose of binding only the Trust Fund.
Section 8.04 Trustee May Own Certificates. The Trustee in its
individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates
with the same rights as it would have if it were not the Trustee.
Section 8.05 Trustee's and Custodian's Fees and Expenses. As
compensation for its activities under this Agreement, the Trustee may withdraw
from the Distribution Account on each Distribution Date the Trustee Fee for the
Distribution Date and any interest or investment income earned on funds
deposited in the Distribution Account during the Trustee Float Period. The
Trustee and any director, officer, employee, or agent of the Trustee and the
Custodian shall be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless against any
loss, liability, or expense during the Trustee Float Period (including
reasonable attorney's fees) resulting from any error in any tax or information
return prepared by the Servicer or incurred in connection with (including any
claim or legal action relating to):
(a) this Agreement,
(b) the Insurance Policy,
(c) the Certificates, or
(d) the performance of any of the Trustee's or the Custodian's
duties under this Agreement,
other than any loss, liability, or expense (i) resulting from any breach of the
Servicer's obligations in connection with this Agreement for which the Servicer
has performed its obligation to indemnify the Trustee and the Custodian, as
applicable, pursuant to Section 6.05, (ii) solely with respect to the Trustee,
resulting from any breach of the Responsible Party's obligations in connection
with this Agreement for which the Responsible Party has performed its obligation
to indemnify the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.03(h) or (iii) incurred because
of willful misconduct, bad faith, or negligence in the performance of any of the
Custodian's or Trustee's duties under this Agreement, as applicable. This
indemnity shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or
removal of the Trustee under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing,
except as otherwise agreed upon in writing by the Depositor and the Trustee, and
except for any expense, disbursement, or advance arising from the Trustee's
negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct, the Trust Fund shall pay or
reimburse the Trustee for all reasonable expenses, disbursements, and advances
incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with this Agreement with respect
to:
(A) the reasonable compensation, expenses, and disbursements
of its counsel not associated with the closing of the issuance of
the Certificates, and
(B) the reasonable compensation, expenses, and disbursements
of any accountant, engineer, or appraiser that is not regularly
employed by the Trustee, to the extent that the Trustee must engage
them to perform services under this Agreement.
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or a separate letter
agreement between the Trustee and the Depositor, the Trustee shall not be
entitled to payment or reimbursement for any routine ongoing expenses incurred
by the Trustee in the ordinary course of its duties as Trustee, Registrar, or
paying agent under this Agreement or for any other routine expenses incurred by
the Trustee; provided, however, no expense shall be reimbursed hereunder if it
would not constitute an "unanticipated expense incurred by the REMIC" within the
meaning of the REMIC Provisions.
Section 8.06 Eligibility Requirements for the Trustee. The Trustee
hereunder shall at all times be a corporation or association organized and doing
business under the laws of a 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, subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authority and with a credit rating which would not cause any of
the Rating Agencies to reduce their respective then current ratings of the
Certificates (or having provided such security from time to time as is
sufficient to avoid such reduction) as evidenced in writing by each Rating
Agency. If such corporation or association publishes reports of condition at
least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid
supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 8.06
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 this Section 8.06, the Trustee shall resign
immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.07. The
entity serving as Trustee may have normal banking and trust relationships with
the Depositor and its Affiliates or the Servicer and its Affiliates; provided,
however, that such entity cannot be an Affiliate of the Depositor or the
Servicer other than the Trustee in its role as successor to the Servicer.
Section 8.07 Resignation and Removal of the Trustee. The Trustee may
at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving
written notice of resignation to the Depositor, the Servicer, the Custodian and
each Rating Agency not less than 60 days before the date specified in such
notice, when, subject to Section 8.08, such resignation is to take effect, and
acceptance by a successor trustee in accordance with Section 8.08 meeting the
qualifications set forth in Section 8.06. If no successor trustee meeting such
qualifications shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within
30 days after the giving of such notice or resignation, the resigning 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 Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after written request thereto by the
Depositor, or if at any time the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or
shall be adjudged as 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, or a tax is imposed with respect to
the Trust Fund by any state in which the Trustee or the Trust Fund is located
and the imposition of such tax would be avoided by the appointment of a
different trustee, then the Depositor may remove the Trustee and appoint a
successor trustee by written instrument, in triplicate, one copy of which shall
be delivered to the Trustee, one copy to the Servicer and one copy to the
successor trustee.
The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least a majority of the
Voting Rights may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee
by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by such Holders or
their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which shall be
delivered by the successor Trustee to the Servicer, one complete set to the
Trustee so removed and one complete set to the successor so appointed. The
successor trustee shall notify each Rating Agency of any removal of the Trustee.
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor trustee pursuant to this Section 8.07 shall become effective upon
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
and to its predecessor trustee and the Servicer 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 act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the
rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like
effect as if originally named as trustee herein. The Depositor, the Servicer and
the predecessor trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such
other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting
and confirming in the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties, and
obligations.
No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section 8.08 unless at the time of its acceptance, the successor trustee is
eligible under Section 8.06 and its appointment does not adversely affect the
then current rating of any of the Certificates by any of the Rating Agencies.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in
this Section 8.08, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of such
trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates. 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 the Trustee. Any corporation
into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to the business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee
hereunder; provided, that such corporation shall be eligible under Section 8.06
without the execution or filing of any paper or further act on the part of any
of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In
connection with the succession to the Trustee under this Agreement by any Person
(i) into which the Trustee may be merged or consolidated, or (ii) which may be
appointed as a successor to the Trustee, the Trustee shall notify the Depositor
of such succession or appointment and shall furnish to the Depositor in writing
and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all
information reasonably necessary for the Trustee to accurately and timely
report, pursuant to Section 8.12(g), the event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K
pursuant to the Exchange Act (if such reports under the Exchange Act are
required to be filed under the Exchange Act).
Section 8.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the
purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part
of the Trust Fund or property securing any Mortgage Note 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 to act as co-trustee or co-trustees jointly with the
Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the
Trust Fund, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the
benefit of the Certificateholders, such title to the Trust Fund or any part
thereof, whichever is applicable, 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 appropriate. If the Servicer shall not
have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a
request to do so, or in the case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No
co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of
eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.06 and no notice to
Certificateholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee
shall be required under Section 8.08.
Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted
by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:
(a) To the extent necessary to effectuate the purposes of this
Section 8.10, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed
upon the Trustee, except for the obligation of the Trustee under this Agreement
to advance funds on behalf of the Servicer, shall be conferred or imposed upon
and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or
co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee
is not authorized to act separately without the Trustee joining in such act),
except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any
particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as
successor to the Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or
unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers,
duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the applicable Trust
Fund or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and
performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the
direction of the Trustee;
(b) No trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable because of
any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder and such appointment shall
not, and shall not be deemed to, constitute any such separate trustee or
co-trustee as agent of the Trustee;
(c) The Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove
any separate trustee or co-trustee; and
(d) The Trust Fund, and not the Trustee, shall be liable for the
payment of reasonable compensation, reimbursement and indemnification to any
such separate trustee or co-trustee.
Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be
deemed to have been given to each of the separate trustees and co-trustees, when
and 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 trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified
in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately,
as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement,
specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct
of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection and indemnity to, the
Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy
thereof given to the Servicer and the Depositor.
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 Tax Matters. It is intended that the assets with
respect to which any REMIC election pertaining to the Trust Fund is to be made,
as set forth in the Preliminary Statement, shall constitute, and that the
conduct of matters relating to such assets shall be such as to qualify such
assets as, a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" as defined in and in
accordance with the REMIC Provisions. In furtherance of such intention, the
Trustee covenants and agrees that it shall act as agent (and the Trustee is
hereby appointed to act as agent) on behalf of each Trust REMIC and that in such
capacity it shall:
(a) prepare and file in a timely manner, a U.S. Real Estate Mortgage
Investment Conduit (REMIC) Income Tax Return (Form 1066 or any successor form
adopted by the Internal Revenue Service) and prepare and file with the Internal
Revenue Service and applicable state or local tax authorities income tax or
information returns for each taxable year with respect to each Trust REMIC
containing such information and at the times and in the manner as may be
required by the Code or state or local tax laws, regulations, or rules, and
furnish to Certificateholders the schedules, statements or information at such
times and in such manner as may be required thereby;
(b) within thirty days of the Closing Date, the Trustee will apply
for an employer identification number from the Internal Revenue Service via Form
SS-4 or any other acceptable method for all tax entities and shall also furnish
to the Internal Revenue Service, on Form 8811 or as otherwise may be required by
the Code, the name, title, address, and telephone number of the person that the
Holders of the Certificates may contact for tax information relating thereto,
together with such additional information as may be required by such Form, and
update such information at the time or times in the manner required by the Code;
(c) deliver or cause to be delivered the federal taxpayer
identification number of the grantor trust on correct, complete and duly
executed IRS Form W-9 of the trust to the Swap Provider and the Cap Provider at
the time the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and the Cap Agreement are entered into
and promptly upon actual knowledge that such previously provided form is
obsolete or incorrect and, if requested by the Swap Provider or Cap Provider, an
applicable IRS Form W-8IMY;
(d) make an election that each of Pooling Tier REMIC-1, Pooling Tier
REMIC-2, the Lower Tier REMIC and the Upper Tier REMIC be treated as a REMIC on
the federal tax return for its first taxable year (and, if necessary, under
applicable state law);
(e) prepare and forward to the Certificateholders and to the
Internal Revenue Service and, if necessary, state tax authorities, all
information returns and reports as and when required to be provided to them in
accordance with the REMIC Provisions, including the calculation of any original
issue discount using the prepayment assumption (as described in the Prospectus
Supplement);
(f) provide information necessary for the computation of tax imposed
on the Transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Person that is a Non-Permitted
Transferee, or an agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) of a
Non-Permitted Transferee, or a pass-through entity in which a Non-Permitted
Transferee is the record holder of an interest (the reasonable cost of computing
and furnishing such information may be charged to the Person liable for such
tax);
(g) to the extent that they are under its control, conduct matters
relating to such assets at all times that any Certificates are Outstanding so as
to maintain the status of each Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC
Provisions;
(h) not knowingly or intentionally take any action or omit to take
any action that would cause the termination of the REMIC status of any Trust
REMIC created hereunder;
(i) pay, from the sources specified in the last paragraph of this
Section 8.11, the amount of any federal or state tax, including prohibited
transaction taxes as described below, imposed on each Trust REMIC before its
termination when and as the same shall be due and payable (but such obligation
shall not prevent the Trustee or any other appropriate Person from contesting
any such tax in appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the Trustee from
withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of
such proceedings);
(j) cause federal, state or local income tax or information returns
to be signed by the Trustee or such other Person as may be required to sign such
returns by the Code or state or local laws, regulations or rules; and
(k) maintain records relating to each of the Trust REMICs, including
the income, expenses, assets, and liabilities thereof on a calendar year basis
and on the accrual method of accounting and the adjusted basis of the assets
determined at such intervals as may be required by the Code, as may be necessary
to prepare the foregoing returns, schedules, statements or information.
The Holder of the largest Percentage Interest of the Class R-I
Certificates shall act as Tax Matters Person for Pooling Tier REMIC-1 and the
holder of the largest Percentage Interest of the Class R-II Certificates shall
act as the Tax Matters Person for Pooling Tier REMIC-2, the Lower Tier REMIC and
the Upper Tier REMIC, in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
Section 1.860F-4(d), and the Trustee is hereby designated as agent of such
Certificateholder for such purpose (or if the Trustee is not so permitted, such
Holder shall be the Tax Matters Person in accordance with the REMIC Provisions).
In such capacity, the Trustee shall, as and when necessary and appropriate,
represent any Trust REMIC in any administrative or judicial proceedings relating
to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority, request an
administrative adjustment as to any taxable year of any Trust REMIC, enter into
settlement agreements with any governmental taxing agency, extend any statute of
limitations relating to any tax item of any Trust REMIC, and otherwise act on
behalf of each REMIC in relation to any tax matter or controversy involving it.
The Trustee shall treat the rights of the Class P Certificateholders
to receive Prepayment Charges (including amounts payable by the Servicer with
respect thereto), the rights of the Class X Certificateholders to receive
amounts in the Excess Reserve Fund Account and the Supplemental Interest Account
(subject, other than in the case of the Class X Certificates, to the obligation
to pay Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts and, without duplication, Upper Tier
Carry Forward Amounts) and the rights of the LIBOR Certificateholders to receive
Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts and, without duplication, Upper Tier Carry
Forward Amounts as the beneficial ownership of interests in a grantor trust, and
not as an obligation of any Trust REMIC created hereunder, for federal income
tax purposes. The Trustee shall file or cause to be filed with the IRS together
with Form 1041 or such other form as may be applicable and shall furnish or
cause to be furnished, to the Class P Certificateholders, the Class X
Certificateholders and the LIBOR Certificateholders, the respective amounts
described above that are received, in the time or times and in the manner
required by the Code.
To enable the Trustee to perform its duties under this Agreement,
the Depositor shall provide to the Trustee within ten days after the Closing
Date all information or data that the Trustee requests in writing and determines
to be relevant for tax purposes to the valuations and offering prices of the
Certificates, including the price, yield, prepayment assumption, and projected
cash flows of the Certificates and the Mortgage Loans. Moreover, the Depositor
shall provide information to the Trustee concerning the value to each Class of
Certificates of the right to receive Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts from the
Excess Reserve Fund Account and Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts or, without
duplication, Upper Tier Carry Forward Amounts from the Supplemental Interest
Account. Unless otherwise advised by the Depositor, for federal income tax
purposes, the Trustee is hereby directed to assign a value of zero to the right
of each Holder allocating the purchase price of an initial Offered
Certificateholder between such right and the related Upper Tier Regular
Interest. Thereafter, the Depositor shall provide to the Trustee promptly upon
written request therefor any additional information or data that the Trustee
may, from time to time, reasonably request to enable the Trustee to perform its
duties under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Depositor shall not be
required to provide any information regarding the Mortgage Loans that the
Servicer is required to provide to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement. The
Depositor hereby indemnifies the Trustee for any losses, liabilities, damages,
claims, or expenses of the Trustee arising from any errors or miscalculations of
the Trustee that result from any failure of the Depositor to provide, pursuant
to this paragraph, accurate information or data to the Trustee on a timely
basis.
Neither the Servicer nor Trustee shall (i) permit the creation of
any interests in any Trust REMIC other than the regular and residual interests
set forth in the Preliminary Statement, (ii) receive any amount representing a
fee or other compensation for services (except as otherwise permitted by this
Agreement) or (iii) otherwise knowingly or intentionally take any action, cause
the Trust Fund to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken)
any action reasonably within its control and the scope of duties more
specifically set forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not
taken, as the case may be, could (A) endanger the status of any Trust REMIC as a
REMIC or (B) result in the imposition of a tax upon any Trust REMIC or 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
Trust REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code, or the tax on "net income
from foreclosure property") unless the Trustee receives an Opinion of Counsel
(at the expense of the party seeking to take such action or, if such party fails
to pay such expense, at the expense of the Trust Fund, but in no event at the
expense of the Trustee) to the effect that the contemplated action will not,
with respect to the Trust Fund or any Trust REMIC created hereunder, endanger
such status.
If any tax is imposed on "prohibited transactions" of any Trust
REMIC as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the "net income from
foreclosure property" of the Pooling Tier REMIC-1 as defined in Section 860G(c)
of the Code, on any contribution to any Trust REMIC after the Startup Day
pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed, including
any minimum tax imposed on any Trust REMIC pursuant to Sections 23153 and 24874
of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, if not paid as otherwise provided
for herein, the tax shall be paid by (i) the Trustee if such tax arises out of
or results from negligence of the Trustee in the performance of any of its
obligations under this Agreement, (ii) the Servicer, in the case of any such
minimum tax, and otherwise if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by
the Servicer of any of its obligations under this Agreement, or (iii) in all
other cases, or if the Trustee or the Servicer fails to honor its obligations
under the preceding clause (i) or (ii), any such tax will be paid with amounts
otherwise to be distributed to the Certificateholders, as provided in Section
4.02(a).
Section 8.12 Periodic Filings. (a) The Trustee and the Servicer
shall reasonably cooperate with the Depositor in connection with the reporting
requirements of the Trust under the Exchange Act. The Trustee shall prepare for
execution by the Depositor any Forms 10-D and 10-K and certain Form 8-K's (not
to include any Form 8-K related to the filing of this Agreement and any
amendments thereto), required by the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations
of the Commission thereunder, in order to permit the timely filing thereof, and
the Trustee shall file (via the Commission's Electronic Data Gathering and
Retrieval System, or XXXXX) such Forms executed by the Depositor.
(b) Within 15 days after each Distribution Date (subject to
permitted extensions under the Exchange Act), the Trustee shall prepare and file
on behalf of the Trust any Form 10-D required by the Exchange Act, in form and
substance as required by the Exchange Act. The Trustee shall file each Form 10-D
with a copy of the related Monthly Statement attached thereto. Any disclosure in
addition to the Monthly Statement that is required to be included on Form 10-D
("Additional Form 10-D Disclosure") shall be reported to the Depositor and the
Trustee by the parties set forth on Exhibit Q and directed and approved by the
Depositor pursuant to the following paragraph. The Trustee will have no duty or
liability for any failure hereunder to determine or prepare any Additional Form
10-D Disclosure, except as set forth in the next paragraph.
As set forth on Exhibit Q hereto, within 5 calendar days after the
related Distribution Date, the parties, to the extent described on Exhibit Q,
shall be required to provide to the Trustee and the Depositor, to the extent
known by such applicable parties, any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, the form
and substance of the Additional Form 10-D Disclosure described on Exhibit Q
applicable to such party (and shall include with such Additional Form 10-D
Disclosure an Additional Disclosure Notification in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit V), and the Depositor will approve, as to form and substance, or
disapprove, as the case may be, the inclusion of the Additional Form 10-D
Disclosure on Form 10-D. The Trustee has no duty under this Agreement to monitor
or enforce the performance by the parties listed on Exhibit Q (other than with
respect to the Trustee) of their duties under this paragraph or proactively
solicit or procure from such parties any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure
information; provided, however, the Trustee shall cooperate with the Depositor
in a reasonable manner in order for the Depositor to comply with its reporting
obligations under the Exchange Act as set forth in Section 8.12(a). The
Depositor will be responsible for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or
incurred by the Trustee in connection with including any Additional Form 10-D
Disclosure on Form 10-D pursuant to this paragraph. The Trustee shall compile
all such information provided to it in a Form 10-D prepared by it.
After preparing the Form 10-D, the Trustee shall forward
electronically a copy of the Form 10-D to the Depositor for approval and
execution. No later than 2 Business Days prior to the 15th calendar day after
the related Distribution Date, an officer of the Depositor shall sign the Form
10-D and return an electronic or fax copy of such signed Form 10-D (with an
original executed hard copy to follow by overnight mail) to the Trustee. If a
Form 10-D cannot be filed on time or if a previously filed Form 10-D needs to be
amended, the Trustee will follow the procedures set forth in Section
8.12(f)(ii). Form 10-D requires the Depositor to indicate (by checking "yes" or
"no") that it "(1) has filed all reports required to be filed by Section 13 or
15(d) of the Exchange Act during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter
period that the Depositor was required to file such reports), and (2) has been
subject to such filing requirements for the past 90 days." The Depositor hereby
instructs the Trustee, with respect to each Form 10-D, to check "yes" for each
item unless the Trustee has received timely prior written notice from the
Depositor that the answer should be "no" for an item. The Depositor shall notify
the Trustee in writing, as soon as reasonably practicable but no later than 5
Business Days prior to the 15th calendar day after the related Distribution Date
with respect to the filing of a report on Form 10-D, if the answer to the
questions should be "no." The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on such
instructions in preparing and/or filing any such Form 10-D. The Depositor
acknowledges that the performance by the Trustee of its duties under this
Section 8.12(b) related to the timely preparation and filing of Form 10-D is
contingent upon the Custodian, the Servicer (including Subcontractors and
Servicing Function Participant) and the Depositor observing all applicable
deadlines in the performance of their duties under this Section 8.12(b). The
Trustee shall have no liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out
of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare and/or timely file such
Form 10-D, where such failure results from the Trustee's inability or failure to
receive, on a timely basis, any information from any party hereto (other than
the Trustee or any Subcontractor utilized by the Trustee) needed to prepare,
arrange for execution or file such Form 10-D, not resulting from its own
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
(c) On or before 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the
Trust or such earlier date as may be required by the Exchange Act (the "10-K
Filing Deadline"), commencing in March 2007, the Trustee shall prepare and file
on behalf of the Trust a Form 10-K, in form and substance as required by the
Exchange Act. Each such Form 10-K shall include the following items, in each
case to the extent they have been delivered to the Trustee within the applicable
time frames set forth in this Agreement, (i) an annual compliance statement for
the Servicer and each Subservicer engaged by the Servicer, as described under
Section 3.22, (ii)(A) the annual reports on assessment of compliance with
servicing criteria for the Trustee, the Servicer, the Custodian, each
Subservicer engaged by the Servicer and each Servicing Function Participant
utilized by the Servicer, the Custodian or the Trustee, as described under
Section 3.23, and (B) if any such report on assessment of compliance with
servicing criteria described under Section 3.23 identifies any material instance
of noncompliance, disclosure identifying such instance of noncompliance, or such
report on assessment of compliance with servicing criteria described under
Section 3.23 is not included as an exhibit to such Form 10-K, disclosure that
such report is not included and an explanation why such report is not included,
(iii)(A) the registered public accounting firm attestation report for the
Trustee, the Servicer, the Custodian, each Subservicer engaged by the Servicer
and each Servicing Function Participant utilized by the Servicer, the Custodian
or the Trustee, as described under Section 3.23, and (B) if any registered
public accounting firm attestation report described under Section 3.23
identifies any material instance of noncompliance, disclosure identifying such
instance of noncompliance, or if any such registered public accounting firm
attestation report is not included as an exhibit to such Form 10-K, disclosure
that such report is not included and an explanation why such report is not
included, and (iv) a certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L,
with such changes as may be necessary or appropriate as a result of changes
promulgated by the Commission (the "Sarbanes Certification"), which shall be
signed by the senior officer of the Depositor in charge of securitization. Any
disclosure or information in addition to (i) through (iv) above that is required
to be included on Form 10-K ("Additional Form 10-K Disclosure") shall be
reported to the Depositor and the Trustee by the parties set forth on Exhibit R
and directed and approved by the Depositor pursuant to the following paragraph.
The Trustee will have no duty or liability for any failure hereunder to
determine or prepare any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure, except as set forth in
the next paragraph.
As set forth on Exhibit R hereto, no later than March 1 of each year
(or, in the case of the Servicer, March 5th of each year) that the Trust is
subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements, commencing in 2007, the
parties, to the extent described on Exhibit R, shall be required to provide to
the Trustee and the Depositor, to the extent known by such applicable parties,
any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure, the form and substance of the Additional
Form 10-K Disclosure described on Exhibit R applicable to such party (and shall
include with such Additional Form 10-K Disclosure an Additional Disclosure
Notification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit V), and the Depositor will
approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case may be, the
inclusion of the Additional Form 10-K Disclosure on Form 10-K. The Trustee has
no duty under this Agreement to monitor or enforce the performance by the
parties listed on Exhibit R (other than with respect to the Trustee) of their
duties under this paragraph or proactively solicit from such parties any
Additional Form 10-K Disclosure information; provided, however, the Trustee
shall cooperate with the Depositor in a reasonable manner in order for the
Depositor to comply with its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act as set
forth in Section 8.12(a). The Depositor will be responsible for any reasonable
fees and expenses assessed or incurred by the Trustee in connection with
including any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure on Form 10-K pursuant to this
paragraph. The Trustee shall compile all such information provided to it in a
Form 10-K prepared by it.
After preparing the Form 10-K, the Trustee shall forward
electronically a copy of the Form 10-K to the Depositor for approval and
execution. Form 10-K requires the registrant to indicate (by checking "yes" or
"no") that it "(1) has filed all reports required to be filed by Section 13 or
15(d) of the Exchange Act during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter
period that the registrant was required to file such reports), and (2) has been
subject to such filing requirements for the past 90 days." The Depositor hereby
instructs the Trustee, with respect to each Form 10-K, to check "yes" for each
item unless the Trustee has received timely prior written notice from the
Depositor that the answer should be "no" for an item. The Depositor shall notify
the Trustee in writing by March 1st if the answer to the questions should be
"no." The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on such instructions in preparing
and/or filing any such Form 10-K. No later than 5:00 p.m. EST on the 4th
Business Day prior to the 10-K Filing Deadline, a senior officer of the
Depositor shall sign the Form 10-K and return an electronic or fax copy of such
signed Form 10-K (with an original executed hard copy to follow by overnight
mail) to the Trustee. If a Form 10-K cannot be filed on time or if a previously
filed Form 10-K needs to be amended, the Trustee will follow the procedures set
forth in Section 8.12(f)(ii). The Depositor acknowledges that the performance by
the Trustee of its duties under this Section 8.12(c) related to the timely
preparation and filing of Form 10-K is contingent upon the Servicer (and any
Subservicer or Servicing Function Participant engaged by the Servicer) and the
Depositor observing all applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties
under this Section 8.12(c), Section 8.12(d), Section 3.22 and Section 3.23. The
Trustee shall have no liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out
of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare and/or timely file such
Form 10-K, where such failure results from the Trustee's inability or failure to
receive, on a timely basis, any information from any party hereto or any
Subservicer or Servicing Function Participant engaged by any such party hereto
(other than the Trustee or any Servicing Function Participant utilized by the
Trustee) needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 10-K, not
resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
(d) In connection with the execution of a Sarbanes Certification,
the Trustee shall sign a certification (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit
M, with such changes as may be necessary or appropriate as a result of changes
promulgated by the Commission) for the benefit of the Depositor and its
officers, directors and Affiliates, and the Servicer shall sign a certification
solely with respect to the Servicer (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit N,
with such changes as may be necessary or appropriate as a result of changes
promulgated by the Commission) for the benefit of the Depositor, the Trustee and
their respective officers, directors and Affiliates. Each such certification
shall be delivered to the Depositor no later than March 10th of each year (or if
such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) and the
Depositor shall deliver the Sarbanes Certification no later than the time set
forth for the delivery to the Trustee of the signed Form 10-K pursuant to
Section 8.12(c) for such year. In the event that prior to the filing date of the
Form 10-K in March of each year, the Trustee or the Servicer has actual
knowledge of information material to the Sarbanes Certification, that party
shall promptly notify the Depositor and each of the other parties signing the
certifications. In addition, (i) the Trustee shall indemnify and hold harmless
the Depositor and the Sponsor and their officers, directors, employees, agents
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 any breach of the
Trustee's obligations under this Section 8.12(d) or the Trustee's material
misstatement, material omission, negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in
connection therewith, and (ii) the Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless
the Depositor, the Trustee and their respective officers, directors, employees,
agents 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 any breach of the
Servicer's obligations under this Section 8.12(d) or any material misstatement
or material omission, negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the
Servicer in connection therewith. If the indemnification provided for herein is
unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless any indemnified party, then (i) the
Trustee agrees in connection with a breach of the Trustee's obligations under
this Section 8.12(d) or the Trustee's material misstatement, material omission,
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith that it
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Depositor and the Sponsor
as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Depositor and
the Sponsor in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault
of the Depositor and the Sponsor on the one hand and the Trustee on the other
and (ii) the Servicer agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities of such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect the relative fault of such indemnified party, on the one hand, and the
Servicer, on the other hand, in connection with a breach of the Servicer's
obligations under this Section 8.12(d) or any material misstatement, material
omission, negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Servicer in
connection therewith. The obligations of the Trustee and the Servicer under this
Section 8.12(d) shall apply to the Trustee and the Servicer whether or not such
Trustee or Servicer is acting as Trustee or Servicer, as applicable, at the time
such certification is required to be delivered. The indemnification and
contribution obligations set forth in this Section 8.12(d) shall survive the
termination of this Agreement or the earlier resignation or removal of the
Trustee or the Servicer, as applicable.
(e) Upon any filing of Form 10-D, Form 10-K or Form 8-K with the
Commission, the Trustee shall promptly deliver to the Depositor a copy of each
such executed report, statement or information.
(f) (i) The obligations set forth in paragraphs (a) through (d) of
this Section shall only apply with respect to periods for which reports are
required to be filed with respect to the Trust under the Exchange Act. On or
prior to January 30 of the first year in which the Trustee is able to do so
under applicable law, the Trustee shall prepare and file a Form 15 Suspension
Notification with respect to the Trust, with a copy to the Depositor. At the
start of any fiscal year, including any fiscal year after the filing of a Form
15 Suspension Notification, if the number of Holders of the Offered Certificates
of record exceeds the number set forth in Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act or
the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto which would cause the Trust to
again become subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the
Trustee shall recommence preparing and filing reports on Form 10-K, 10-D and 8-K
as required pursuant to this Section 8.12 and the parties hereto shall again
have the obligations set forth in this Section 8.12.
(ii) In the event that the Trustee is unable to timely file with the
Commission all or any required portion of any Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K
required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement because required
disclosure information was either not delivered to it or delivered to it
after the delivery deadlines set forth in this Agreement, the Trustee will
promptly notify the Depositor. In the case of Form 10-D and 10-K, the
Depositor and Trustee will thereupon prepare and file, and the other
parties shall cooperate in connection with such preparation and filing, a
Form 12b-25 and a 10-D/A and 10-K/A as applicable, pursuant to Rule 12b-25
of the Exchange Act. In the case of Form 8-K, the Trustee will, upon
receipt of all required Form 8-K Disclosure Information and, upon the
approval and direction of the Depositor, include such disclosure
information on the next succeeding Form 10-D. In the event that any
previously filed Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K needs to be amended, in connection
with any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure (other than, in the case of Form
10-D, for the purpose of restating any Monthly Statement), Additional Form
10-K Disclosure or Form 8-K Disclosure Information, the Trustee will
notify the Depositor and such other parties to the transaction as are
affected by such amendment, and the Depositor and the Trustee shall
prepare and file, and such other parties will cooperate in connection with
such preparation and filing, any necessary Form 8-K/A, 10-D/A or 10-K/A.
Any Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K shall be signed
by an officer or a senior officer of the Depositor. The Depositor
acknowledges that the performance by the Trustee of its duties under this
Section 8.12(f) related to the timely preparation and filing of Form 15, a
Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K is contingent upon
the Servicer and the Depositor observing all applicable deadlines in the
performance of their duties under this Section 8.12 and Sections 3.22 and
3.23. The Trustee shall have no liability for any loss, expense, damage,
claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare
and/or timely file any such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendments to
Forms 8-K, 10-D or 10-K, where such failure results from the Trustee's
inability or failure to obtain or receive, on a timely basis, any
information from any party hereto or any Subservicer or any Servicing
Function Participant engaged by any such party hereto (other than the
Trustee or any Servicing Function Participant utilized by the Trustee)
needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 15, Form 12b-25
or any amendments to Forms 8-K, 10-D or 10-K, not resulting from its own
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
(g) Within four (4) Business Days after the occurrence of an event
requiring disclosure on Form 8-K (each such event, a "Reportable Event"), and
also if requested by the Depositor, the Trustee shall prepare and file on behalf
of the Trust any Form 8-K, as required by the Exchange Act, provided that the
Depositor shall file the initial Form 8-K in connection with the issuance of the
Certificates. Any disclosure or information related to a Reportable Event or
that is otherwise required to be included on Form 8-K (other than the initial
Form 8-K) ("Form 8-K Disclosure Information") shall be reported to the Depositor
and the Trustee by the parties set forth on Exhibit R and directed and approved
by the Depositor pursuant to the following paragraph. The Trustee will have no
duty or liability for any failure hereunder to determine or prepare any Form 8-K
Disclosure Information or any Form 8-K, except as set forth in the next
paragraph.
As set forth on Exhibit S hereto, for so long as the Trust is
subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements, no later than the end of
business (New York City time) on the 2nd Business Day after the occurrence of a
Reportable Event the parties, to the extent described on Exhibit S, shall be
required to provide to the Trustee and the Depositor, to the extent known by
such applicable parties, any Form 8-K Disclosure Information, the form and
substance of the Form 8-K Disclosure Information described on Exhibit S
applicable to such party (and shall include with such Form 8-K Disclosure
Information, an Additional Disclosure Notification in the form attached hereto
as Exhibit V, and the Depositor will approve, as to form and substance, or
disapprove, as the case may be, the inclusion of the Form 8-K Disclosure
Information on Form 8-K. The Trustee has no duty under this Agreement to monitor
or enforce the performance by the parties listed on Exhibit S (other than with
respect to the Trustee) of their duties under this paragraph or proactively
solicit or procure from such parties any Form 8-K Disclosure Information;
provided, however, the Trustee shall cooperate with the Depositor in a
reasonable manner in order for the Depositor to comply with its reporting
obligations under the Exchange Act as set forth in Section 8.12(a). The
Depositor will be responsible for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or
incurred by the Trustee in connection with including any Form 8-K Disclosure
Information on Form 8-K pursuant to this paragraph. The Trustee shall compile
all such information provided to it in a Form 8-K prepared by it.
After preparing the Form 8-K, the Trustee shall no later than 12:00
noon (New York City time) on the 3rd Business Day after the Reportable Event but
in no case without having had notice for 24 hours forward electronically a draft
copy of the Form 8-K to the Depositor for review. No later than 12:00 noon (New
York City time) on the 4th Business Day after the Reportable Event, an officer
of the Depositor shall sign the Form 8-K and return an electronic or fax copy of
such signed Form 8-K (with an original executed hard copy to follow by overnight
mail) to the Trustee. If a Form 8-K cannot be filed on time or if a previously
filed Form 8-K needs to be amended, the Trustee will follow the procedures set
forth in Section 8.12(f)(ii). The Depositor and Servicer acknowledge that the
performance by the Trustee of its duties under this Section 8.12(g) related to
the timely preparation, arrangement for execution and filing of Form 8-K is
contingent upon the Servicer and the Depositor observing all applicable
deadlines in the performance of their duties under this Section 8.12(g). The
Trustee shall have no liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out
of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare and/or timely file such
Form 8-K, where such failure results from the Trustee's inability or failure to
obtain or receive, on a timely basis, any information from any party hereto
(other than the Trustee or any Subcontractor utilized by the Trustee) needed to
prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 8-K, not resulting from its own
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
(h) The Trustee shall have no liability for any loss, expense,
damage or claim arising out of or resulting from (i) the accuracy or inaccuracy
of any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, Additional Form 10-K Disclosure or Form
8-K Disclosure Information (excluding any information therein provided by the
Trustee or any Subcontractor utilized by the Trustee) provided to the Trustee in
connection with the preparation of Forms 10-D, 10-K and 8-K pursuant to this
Section 8.12, or (ii) the failure of the Depositor to approve for filing any
Forms 10-D, 10-K and 8-K required to be prepared by the Trustee pursuant to this
Section 8.12, in either case, not resulting from the Trustee's own negligence,
bad faith or misconduct.
(i) Any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, Additional Form 10-K
Disclosure or Form 8-K Disclosure Information required to be provided to the
Trustee shall be sent (by email at XXXxx.Xxxxxxxxxxxxx@xx.xxx in
XXXXX-compatible format, or in such other format as otherwise agreed upon by the
Trustee, the Depositor and the party providing such information. With respect to
any notice required to be delivered by the Trustee to the Depositor pursuant to
Section 8.12 of this Agreement, the Trustee may deliver such notice,
notwithstanding any contrary provision in Section 11.05, via facsimile to
000-000-0000 or telephonically by calling the General Counsel at 212-412-4000.
The signing party at the Depositor can be contacted at 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx
Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, Attention: General Counsel, Facsimile: (000) 000-0000, or
such other address as to which the Depositor has provided prior written notice
to the Trustee.
Section 8.13 Tax Classification of the Excess Reserve Fund Account,
the Supplemental Interest Account, the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and the Cap
Agreement. For federal income tax purposes, the Trustee shall treat the Excess
Reserve Fund Account, the Supplemental Interest Account, the Cap Agreement and
the Interest Rate Swap Agreement as beneficially owned by the holders of the
Class X Certificates and shall treat such portion of the Trust Fund as a grantor
trust, within the meaning of subpart E, Part I of subchapter J of the Code. The
Trustee shall treat the rights that each Class of LIBOR Certificates has to
receive payments of Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts from the Excess Reserve
Fund Account and, to the extent not paid from the Excess Reserve Fund Account
from the Supplemental Interest Account (including, without duplication, Upper
Tier Carry Forward Amounts), and the obligation to pay Class IO Shortfalls to
the Supplemental Interest Account as rights and obligations under a notional
principal contract between the Class X Certificateholders and Holders of each
such Class and beneficially owned by each such Class through the grantor trust.
Accordingly, each Class of Certificates (excluding the Class X and Class P
Certificates and the Residual Certificates) will be comprised of two components
- an Upper Tier REMIC Regular Interest and an interest in a notional principal
contract, and the Class X Certificates will be comprised of the following
components: (i) two Upper Tier REMIC Regular Interests (the Class X Interest and
the Class IO Interest), (ii) an interest in the Excess Reserve Fund Account,
subject to the obligation to pay Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts and (iii)
ownership of the Supplemental Interest Account, the Cap Agreement and the
Interest Rate Swap Agreement, subject to the obligation to pay Basis Risk Carry
Forward Amounts (including, without duplication, Upper Tier Carry Forward
Amounts), Net Swap Payments and Swap Termination Payments and (iv) the right to
receive Class IO Shortfalls. The Trustee shall allocate the issue price for a
Class of Certificates among the respective components for purposes of
determining the issue price of each Upper Tier REMIC Regular Interest component
based on information received from the Depositor.
Holders of LIBOR Certificates shall also be treated as having agreed
to pay, on each Distribution Date, to the Holders of the Class X Certificates an
aggregate amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) Net Swap Payments and Swap
Termination Payments (other than Defaulted Swap Termination Payments) from
Available Funds over (ii) the sum of amounts payable on the Class X Interest
available for such payments and amounts payable on the Class IO Interest (such
excess, a "Class IO Shortfall"), first from interest and then from principal
distributable on the LIBOR Certificates. A Class IO Shortfall payable from
interest collections shall be allocated pro rata among such LIBOR Certificates
based on the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Class of LIBOR
Certificates, and a Class IO Shortfall payable from principal collections shall
be allocated in reverse sequential order beginning with the most subordinate
Class of LIBOR Certificates then Outstanding.
Any payments of Class IO Shortfalls shall be treated for tax
purposes as having been received by the Holders of such Class of LIBOR
Certificates in respect of the corresponding Upper Tier Regular Interest and as
having been paid by such Holders to the Holders of the Class X Certificates
through the Supplemental Interest Account.
Section 8.14 Custodial Responsibilities. (a) The Custodian shall
provide access to the Mortgage Loan Documents in possession of the Custodian
regarding the related Mortgage Loans and REO Property and the servicing thereof
to the Trustee, the Certificateholders, the FDIC and the supervisory agents and
examiners of the FDIC, such access being afforded only upon two (2) Business
Days' prior written request and during normal business hours at the office of
the Custodian. The Custodian shall allow representatives of the above entities
to photocopy any of the records and documentation and shall provide equipment
for that purpose at the expense of the person requesting such access.
(b) The Custodian may resign from its obligations hereunder upon 60
days' prior written notice to the Trustee, the Depositor and the Servicer. Such
resignation shall take effect upon (i) the appointment of a successor Custodian
reasonably acceptable to the Depositor within such 60 day period; and (ii)
delivery of all Mortgage Loan Files to the successor Custodian. The Trustee
shall have the right, but not the obligation, to become the successor Custodian.
If no successor Custodian is appointed within 60 days after written notice of
the Custodian's resignation is received by the Trustee, the Custodian may
petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor Custodian.
Upon such resignation and appointment of successor Custodian, the
Custodian shall, at the Custodian's expense, promptly transfer to the successor
Custodian, as directed in writing by the Trustee, all applicable Mortgage Files
being administered under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Trust Fund, not the Custodian, shall bear the costs relating to the transfer of
Mortgage Files if the Custodian shall resign with cause (including a Custodian's
resignation due to the failure of the Custodian to be paid all fees due to such
Custodian hereunder).
(c) For so long as reports are required to be filed with the
Commission under the Exchange Act with respect to the Trust, the Custodian shall
not utilize any Subcontractor for the performance of its duties hereunder if
such Subcontractor would be "participating in the servicing function" within the
meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB without the prior written consent of the
Depositor, in its sole discretion.
(d) The Custodian shall indemnify the Depositor, the Sponsor, the
Trustee and any director, officer, employee, agent and affiliate of the
Depositor, the Sponsor or the Trustee and hold them harmless against any and all
claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonably and necessary
legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses
that any of them may sustain in any way related to (i) the failure of the
Custodian to deliver when required any assessment of compliance required to be
delivered by the Custodian or (ii) any material misstatement or material
omission contained in any assessment of compliance provided to be delivered by
the Custodian. This indemnity shall survive the termination of this Agreement or
the earlier resignation or removal of the Custodian.

acting. In no event shall the Custodian have any responsibility to ascertain or

any such documents the existence of which was not made known to the Custodian by
receipt of the Mortgage File.
(i) The Custodian shall have no obligation to determine whether the
recordation of any document is necessary.
(j) Except as set forth in Section 8.14(d), in no event shall the
Custodian or its directors, affiliates, officers, agents, and employees be held
liable for any special, indirect or consequential damages resulting from any
action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection
herewith even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

to banking institutions, including those related to the funding of terrorists
activities and money laundering, the Custodian is required to obtain, verify and
record certain information relating to individuals and entities which maintain a

agrees to provide to the Custodian upon its request from time to time such
party's complete name, address, tax identification number and such other
identifying information together with copies of such party's constituting
documentation, securities disclosure documentation and such other identifying
documentation as may be available for such party.

shall be the successor of the Custodian 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.

Section 9.01 Termination upon Liquidation or Purchase of the
Mortgage Loans. Subject to Section 9.03, the obligations and responsibilities of
the Depositor, the Servicer, the Custodian and the Trustee created hereby with
respect to the Trust Fund shall terminate upon the earlier of (a) the purchase,
on or after the Optional Termination Date, by the Servicer of all Mortgage Loans
(and REO Properties) at the price (the "Termination Price") equal to the sum of
(i) 100% of the unpaid principal balance of each Mortgage Loan (other than in
respect of REO Property) plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the
applicable Mortgage Rate, (ii) the lesser of (x) the appraised value of any REO
Property as determined by the higher of two appraisals completed by two
independent appraisers selected by the Servicer at the expense of the Servicer
and (y) the unpaid principal balance of each Mortgage Loan related to any REO
Property, in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the
applicable Mortgage Rate, (iii) all xxxxxxxxxxxx X&X Advances, Servicing
Advances and indemnification payments payable to the Servicer, (iv) any Swap
Termination Payment owed to the Swap Provider pursuant to the Interest Rate Swap
Agreement, and (v) any unreimbursed indemnification payments payable to the
Custodian or the Trustee under this Agreement and (b) the later of (i) the
maturity or other liquidation (or any Advance with respect thereto) of the last
Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and the disposition of all REO
Property and (ii) the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required
to be distributed to them pursuant to this Agreement. In no event shall the
trusts created hereby continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death
of the survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late Ambassador of
the United States to the Court of St. James's, living on the date hereof.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no such
purchase by the Servicer shall be permitted unless (i) after distribution of the
proceeds thereof to the Certificateholders (other than the Holders of the Class
X, Class P and Residual Certificates) pursuant to Section 9.02, the distribution
of the remaining proceeds to the Class X and Class P Certificates is sufficient
to pay the outstanding principal amount of and accrued and unpaid interest on
the NIM Securities, to the extent the NIM Securities are then outstanding, or
(ii) prior to such purchase, the Servicer remits to the Trustee an amount that,
together with such remaining proceeds, will be sufficient to pay the outstanding
principal amount of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the NIM Securities, to
the extent the NIM Securities are then outstanding.
Section 9.02 Final Distribution on the Certificates. If on any
Remittance Date, the Servicer determines that there are no Outstanding Mortgage
Loans and no other funds or assets in the Trust Fund other than the funds in the
Collection Account, the Servicer shall direct the Trustee promptly to send a
Notice of Final Distribution to each Certificateholder and the Swap Provider. If
the Servicer elects to exercise its option to purchase the Mortgage Loans
pursuant to clause (a) of Section 9.01, at least 20 days prior to the date the
Notice of Final Distribution is to be mailed to the affected Certificateholders,
the Servicer shall notify the Depositor and the Trustee of (a) the date on which
the Servicer intends to exercise such purchase option and (b) the Termination
Price.
A Notice of Final Distribution, specifying the Distribution Date on
which Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates for payment of the
final distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the Trustee by
letter to Certificateholders mailed not earlier than the 10th day and not later
than the 15th day of the month of such final distribution. Any such Notice of
Final Distribution shall specify (a) the Distribution Date upon which final
distribution on the Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of
Certificates at the office therein designated, (b) the amount of such final
distribution, (c) the location of the office or agency at which such
presentation and surrender must be made and (d) that the Record Date otherwise
applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, distributions being made
only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office therein
specified. The Trustee will give such Notice of Final Distribution to each
Rating Agency at the time such Notice of Final Distribution is given to
Certificateholders.
In the event such Notice of Final Distribution is given, the
Servicer shall cause all funds in the Collection Account to be remitted to the
Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account on the Business Day prior to the
applicable Distribution Date in an amount equal to the final distribution in
respect of the Certificates. Upon such final deposit with respect to the Trust
Fund and the receipt by the Trustee and the Custodian of a Request for Release
therefor, the Custodian shall promptly release to the Servicer the Custodial
Files for the Mortgage Loans.
Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Trustee
shall cause to be distributed to the Certificateholders of each Class (after
reimbursement of all amounts due to the Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee
hereunder), in each case on the final Distribution Date and in the order set
forth in Section 4.02, in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests,
with respect to Certificateholders of the same Class, up to an amount equal to
(i) as to each Class of Regular Certificates (except the Class X Certificates),
the Certificate Balance thereof plus for each such Class and the Class X
Certificates accrued interest thereon in the case of an interest-bearing
Certificate and all other amounts to which such Classes are entitled pursuant to
Section 4.02 and (ii) as to the Residual Certificates, the amount, if any, which
remains on deposit in the Distribution Account (other than the amounts retained
to meet claims) after application pursuant to clause (i) above.
In the event that any affected Certificateholders shall not
surrender Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date
specified in the Notice of Final Distribution, the Trustee shall give a second
written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their
Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect
thereto. If within six months after such second notice all the applicable
Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may
take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to
contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their
Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other
assets which remain a part of the Trust Fund. If within one year after the
second notice all Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation,
the Residual Certificateholders shall be entitled to all unclaimed funds and
other assets of the Trust Fund which remain subject hereto.
Section 9.03 Additional Termination Requirements. In the event the
Servicer exercises its purchase option with respect to the Mortgage Loans as
provided in Section 9.01, the Trust Fund shall be terminated in accordance with
the following additional requirements, unless the Trustee has been supplied with
an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of the Servicer, to the effect that the
failure to comply with the requirements of this Section 9.03 will not (i) result
in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" on any Trust REMIC as
defined in Section 860F of the Code or (ii) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are Outstanding:
(a) The Trustee shall sell all of the assets of the Trust Fund to
the Servicer, and, within 90 days of such sale, shall distribute to the
Certificateholders the proceeds of such sale in complete liquidation of each of
the Trust REMICs; and
(b) The Trustee shall attach a statement to the final federal income
tax return for each of the Trust REMICs stating that pursuant to Treasury
Regulations Section 1.860F-1, the first day of the 90-day liquidation period for
each such REMIC was the date on which the Trustee sold the assets of the Trust
Fund to the Servicer.
ARTICLE X
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Section 10.01 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended from time to
time by the Depositor, the Responsible Party, the Servicer, the Custodian and
the Trustee, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders (i) to cure
any ambiguity or mistake, (ii) to correct any defective provision herein or to
supplement any provision herein which may be inconsistent with any other
provision herein, (iii) to add to the duties of the Depositor, the Custodian or
the Servicer, (iv) to add any other provisions with respect to matters or
questions arising hereunder or (v) to modify, alter, amend, add to or rescind
any of the terms or provisions contained in this Agreement; provided, that any
action pursuant to clause (iv) or (v) above shall not, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the
Custodian, the Trustee or the Trust Fund), adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder; provided, further, that any such
action pursuant to clause (iv) or (v) above shall not be deemed to adversely
affect in any material respect the interests of the Certificateholders if the
Person requesting the amendment obtains a letter from each Rating Agency stating
that the amendment would not result in the downgrading or withdrawal of the
respective ratings then assigned to the Certificates; it being understood and
agreed that any such letter in and of itself will not represent a determination
as to the materiality of any such amendment and will represent a determination
only as to the credit issues affecting any such rating. The Trustee, the
Depositor, the Responsible Party, the Custodian and the Servicer also may at any
time and from time to time amend this Agreement, but without the consent of the
Certificateholders to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such
extent as shall be necessary or helpful to (i) maintain the qualification of
each Trust REMIC under the Code, (ii) avoid or minimize the risk of the
imposition of any tax on any Trust REMIC pursuant to the Code that would be a
claim at any time prior to the final redemption of the Certificates or (iii)
comply with any other requirements of the Code; provided, that the Trustee has
been provided an Opinion of Counsel, which opinion shall be an expense of the
party requesting such opinion but in any case shall not be an expense of the
Trustee or the Trust Fund, to the effect that such action is necessary or
helpful to, as applicable, (i) maintain such qualification, (ii) avoid or
minimize the risk of the imposition of such a tax or (iii) comply with any such
requirements of the Code.
This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Responsible Party, the Custodian and the Trustee,
but with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing Percentage
Interests aggregating not less than 66(2)/3% of each Class of Certificates
affected thereby for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any
manner or eliminating any of the provisions of 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 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 in a manner other than
as described in clause (i), without the consent of the Holders of Certificates
of such Class evidencing, as to such Class, Percentage Interests aggregating not
less than 66(2)/3% or (iii) reduce the aforesaid percentages of Certificates the
Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment, without the
consent of the Holders of all such Certificates then Outstanding.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless (i) it shall
have first received an Opinion of Counsel, which opinion shall not be an expense
of the Trustee or the Trust Fund, to the effect that such amendment will not
cause the imposition of any tax on any Trust REMIC or the Certificateholders or
cause any such REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or the grantor trust to fail
to qualify as a grantor trust at any time that any Certificates are Outstanding
and (ii) the party seeking such amendment shall have provided written notice to
the Rating Agencies and the Swap Provider (with a copy of such notice to the
Trustee) of such amendment, stating the provisions of the Agreement to be
amended.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.01, with
respect to any amendment that significantly modifies the permitted activities of
the Trustee or the Servicer, any Certificate beneficially owned by the Depositor
shall be deemed not to be Outstanding (and shall not be considered when
determining the percentage of Certificateholders consenting or when calculating
the total number of Certificates entitled to consent) for purposes of
determining if the requisite consents of Certificateholders under this Section
10.01 have been obtained.
Promptly after the execution of any amendment to this Agreement
requiring the consent of Certificateholders, the Trustee shall furnish written
notification of the substance or a copy of such amendment to each
Certificateholder and each Rating Agency.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders
under this Section 10.01 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.
Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Custodian or the Trustee
to enter into an amendment without receiving an Opinion of Counsel (which
Opinion shall not be an expense of the Custodian, the Trustee or the Trust
Fund), satisfactory to the Trustee that (i) such amendment is permitted and is
not prohibited by this Agreement and that all requirements for amending this
Agreement have been complied with and (ii) either (A) the amendment does not
adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder
or (B) the conclusion set forth in the immediately preceding clause (A) is not
required to be reached pursuant to this Section 10.01.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment to this Agreement shall
require the prior written consent of the Swap Provider if such amendment
materially and adversely affects the rights or interests of the Swap Provider.
Section 10.02 Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts. 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 Mortgaged Properties are situated, and in any other appropriate
public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by the
Servicer at the direction and expense of the Depositor, but only upon receipt of
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.
Section 10.03 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND
THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THE
CERTIFICATEHOLDERS SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.
Section 10.04 Intention of Parties. It is the express intent of the
parties hereto that the conveyance (i) of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor
and (ii) of the Trust Fund by the Depositor to the Trustee each be, and be
construed as, an absolute sale thereof. It is, further, not the intention of the
parties that such conveyances be deemed a pledge thereof. However, in the event
that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, such assets are held to be the
property of the Depositor, as the case may be, or if for any other reason this
Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in either such assets,
then (i) this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement within the
meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York and (ii) the
conveyances provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be an assignment
and a grant by the Depositor to the Trustee, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, of a security interest in all of the assets transferred,
whether now owned or hereafter acquired.
The Depositor, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall, to
the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary
to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in
the Trust Fund, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected
security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained
as such throughout the term of the Agreement. The Depositor shall arrange for
filing any Uniform Commercial Code continuation statements in connection with
any security interest granted or assigned to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders.

Section 10.06 Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any
reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements, provisions or
terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements,
provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or
enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement or of the Certificates
or the rights of the Holders thereof.
Section 10.07 Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders. The death
or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate to terminate this
Agreement or the Trust created hereby, nor entitle such Certificateholder's
legal representative or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or
commence any proceeding in any court for a petition or winding up of the Trust
created hereby, or 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
provided herein) or in any manner otherwise control the operation and management
of the Trust Fund, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything
herein set forth or contained in the terms of the Certificates be construed so
as to constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members
of an association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under any liability to any
third party by reason of any action taken by the parties to this Agreement
pursuant to any provision hereof.
No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue or by availing
itself of any provisions of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or
proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement,
unless such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee a written notice
of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof, as herein provided, and
unless the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting
Rights evidenced by the Certificates shall also have made written request to 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 60 days after its receipt of such notice,
request and offer of indemnity shall have neglected or refused to institute any
such action, suit or proceeding; it being understood and intended, and being
expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other
Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates
shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue or by availing itself or
themselves of any provisions of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice
the rights of the Holders of any other of the 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
common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement of
the provisions of this Section 10.07, each and every Certificateholder and the
Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in
equity.
Section 10.08 Inspection and Audit Rights. The Servicer agrees that,
on reasonable prior notice, it will permit any representative of the Depositor
or the Trustee during the Servicer's normal business hours, to examine all the
books of account, records, reports and other papers of the Servicer relating to
the Mortgage Loans, to make copies and extracts therefrom, to cause such books
to be audited by independent certified public accountants selected by the
Depositor or the Trustee and to discuss its affairs, finances and accounts
relating to the Mortgage Loans with its officers, employees and independent
public accountants (and by this provision the Servicer hereby authorizes said
accountants to discuss with such representative such affairs, finances and
accounts), all at such reasonable times and as often as may be reasonably
requested. Any out-of-pocket expense of the Servicer incident to the exercise by
the Depositor or the Trustee of any right under this Section 10.08 shall be
borne by the Servicer.
Section 10.09 Certificates Nonassessable and Fully Paid. It is the
intention of the Depositor that Certificateholders shall not be personally
liable for obligations of the Trust Fund, that the interests in the Trust Fund
represented by the Certificates shall be nonassessable for any reason
whatsoever, and that the Certificates, upon due authentication thereof by the
Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, are and shall be deemed fully paid.
Section 10.10 Assignment; Sales; Advance Facilities. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, except as provided in Section 6.02,
this Agreement may not be assigned by the Servicer without the prior written
consent of the Trustee and Depositor; provided, however, the Servicer is hereby
authorized to enter into an Advance Facility under which (1) the Servicer sells,
assigns or pledges to an Advancing Person the Servicer's rights under this
Agreement to be reimbursed for any P&I Advances or Servicing Advances ("Advance
Reimbursement Amounts") and/or (2) an Advancing Person agrees to fund some or
all P&I Advances or Servicing Advances required to be made by the Servicer
pursuant to this Agreement. No consent of the Trustee, Certificateholders or any
other party is required before the Servicer may enter into an Advance Facility.
Notwithstanding the existence of any Advance Facility under which an Advancing
Person agrees to fund P&I Advances and/or Servicing Advances on the Servicer's
behalf, the Servicer shall remain obligated pursuant to this Agreement to make
P&I Advances and Servicing Advances pursuant to and as required by this
Agreement, and shall not be relieved of such obligations by virtue of such
Advance Facility.
Advance Reimbursement Amounts shall consist solely of amounts in
respect of P&I Advances and/or Servicing Advances made with respect to the
Mortgage Loans for which the Servicer would be permitted to reimburse itself in
accordance with this Agreement, assuming the Servicer had made the related P&I
Advance(s) and/or Servicing Advance(s). The Trustee shall not have any duty or
liability with respect to the calculation of any Advance Reimbursement Amount.
The Trustee shall also not have any responsibility to track or monitor the
administration of the Advance Facility or the payment of Advance Reimbursement
Amounts to the related Advancing Person.
The Servicer shall maintain and provide to any successor Servicer
and (upon request) the Trustee a detailed accounting on a loan-by-loan basis as
to amounts advanced by, pledged or assigned to, and reimbursed to any Advancing
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.
An Advancing Person who purchases or receives an assignment or
pledge of the rights to be reimbursed for P&I Advances and/or Servicing
Advances, and/or whose obligations hereunder are limited to the funding of P&I
Advances and/or Servicing Advances shall not be required to meet the criteria
for qualification of a Subservicer set forth in this Agreement.
Advance Reimbursement Amounts allocated to reimburse P&I Advances or
Servicing Advances made with respect to any particular Mortgage Loan shall be
allocated to the reimbursement of the xxxxxxxxxxxx X&X Advances or Servicing
Advances (as the case may be) made with respect to such Mortgage Loan on a
"first-in, first out" ("FIFO") basis, such that the Advance Reimbursement
Amounts shall be applied to reimburse the P&I Advance or Servicing Advance (as
the case may be) for such Mortgage Loan that was disbursed earliest in time
first, and to reimburse the P&I Advance or Servicing Advance (as the case may
be) for such Mortgage Loan that was disbursed latest in time last. Liquidation
Proceeds and Subsequent Recoveries with respect to a Mortgage Loan shall be
applied to reimburse Servicing Advances outstanding with respect to such
Mortgage Loan before being applied to reimburse P&I Advances outstanding with
respect to such Mortgage Loan. The Servicer shall provide to the related
Advancing Person, the Advance Facility trustee (or to any designee of either)
loan-by-loan information with respect to each Advance Reimbursement Amount
remitted to such Advancing Person, Advance Facility trustee or designee, to
enable the Advancing Person or Advance Facility trustee to make the FIFO
allocation of each such Advance Reimbursement Amount with respect to each
Mortgage Loan. The Servicer shall remain entitled to be reimbursed by the
Advancing Person or Advance Facility trustee for all P&I Advances and Servicing
Advances funded by the Servicer to the extent the related rights to be
reimbursed therefor have not been sold, assigned or pledged to an Advancing
Person. The Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee and the Trust Fund for any
loss, liability or damage resulting from any claim by the related Advancing
Person.
Any amendment to this Section 10.10 or to any other provision of
this Agreement that may be necessary or appropriate to effect the terms of an
Advance Facility as described generally in this Section 10.10, including
amendments to add provisions relating to a successor Servicer, may be entered
into by the Trustee and the Servicer without the consent of any

(3) The execution and delivery of this Pooling and Servicing
Agreement by the Servicer, the servicing of the Mortgage Loans required to
be serviced by the Servicer hereunder, the consummation by the Servicer of
any other of the transactions herein contemplated, and the fulfillment of
or compliance with the terms hereof are in the ordinary course of business
of the Servicer and will not (A) result in a breach of any term or

change in the business, operations, financial condition, properties or
assets of the Servicer, or in any material impairment of the right or
ability of the Servicer to carry on its business substantially as now

perform under the terms of this Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

SCHEDULE III
Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates,
Series 2006-WM3
Representations and Warranties of the Responsible Party
as to the Mortgage Loans
The Responsible Party hereby makes the representations and
warranties set forth in this Schedule III as to the Mortgage Loans only, to the
Depositor and the Trustee, as of the Closing Date or such other date as may be
specified below. Capitalized terms used in this Schedule but not defined in this
Schedule have the meanings given to them in the Purchase Agreement.
(a) Mortgage Loans as Described. WMC Mortgage Corp. has delivered to
the Purchaser the Data Tape Information and that Data Tape Information and
the information set forth on the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than
information regarding the Stated Principal Balances) are true and correct,
including, without limitation, the terms of the Prepayment Charges, if
any, as of August 31, 2006 (the "Original Sale Date"). As of the WMC
Servicing Transfer Date (as defined below) with respect to each Mortgage
Loan, the information regarding the Stated Principal Balances set forth on
the Data Tape Information and the Mortgage Loan Schedule are true and
correct;
(b) Payments Current. As of September 30, 2006 (the "WMC Servicing
Transfer Date") all payments required to be made for the Mortgage Loan
under the terms of the Mortgage Note, other than payments not yet 30 days
delinquent, have been made and credited. No payment required under the
Mortgage Loan is 30 days or more delinquent nor has any payment under the
Mortgage Loan been 30 days or more delinquent, exclusive of any period of
grace, at any time since the origination of the Mortgage Loan. The first
Monthly Payment shall be made with respect to the Mortgage Loan on its
related Due Date or within the grace period, all in accordance with the
terms of the related Mortgage Note;
(c) No Outstanding Charges. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date,
there were no defaults in complying with the terms of the Mortgage, and
all taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, water, sewer and
municipal charges, leasehold payments or ground rents which previously
became due and owing have been paid, or an escrow of funds has been
established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such item which
remains unpaid and which has been assessed but is not yet due and payable.
WMC has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received
any advance of funds by a party other than the Mortgagor, directly or
indirectly, for the payment of any amount required under the Mortgage
Loan, except for interest accruing from the date of the Mortgage Note or
date of disbursement of the Mortgage Loan proceeds, whichever is earlier,
to the day which precedes by one month the related Due Date of the first
installment of principal and interest;
(d) Original Terms Unmodified. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer
Date, the terms of the Mortgage Note and Mortgage have not been impaired,
waived, altered or modified in any respect, from the date of origination
except by a written instrument which has been recorded, if necessary to
protect the interests of the Purchaser, and which has been delivered to
the Custodian or to such other Person as the Purchaser shall designate in
writing, and the terms of which are reflected in the related Mortgage Loan
Schedule. The substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has
been approved by the title insurer, if any, to the extent required by the
policy, and its terms are reflected on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule,
if applicable. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, no Mortgagor has
been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an
assumption agreement, approved by the title insurer, to the extent
required by the policy, and which assumption agreement is part of the
Mortgage Loan File delivered to the Custodian or to such other Person as
the Purchaser shall designate in writing and the terms of which are
reflected in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule;
(e) No Defenses. The Mortgage Loan is not subject to any right of
rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including without limitation
the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the
Mortgage Note or the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder,
render either the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or
in part and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense
has been asserted with respect thereto, subject to bankruptcy, equitable
principles and laws affecting creditor rights;
(f) Hazard Insurance. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date,
pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage, all buildings or other improvements
upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by an insurer acceptable to Seller
in accordance with the Underwriting Guidelines and which is rated B:VI or
better in the current Best's Key Rating Guide ("Best's") against loss by
fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary
in the area where the Mortgaged Property is situated. If required by the
National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, each Mortgage Loan is
covered by a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the
current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration as in effect
which policy conforms to the Underwriting Guidelines. All individual
insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming WMC and its
successors and assigns as mortgagee, and as of the WMC Servicing Transfer
Date, all premiums thereon have been paid. The Mortgage obligates the
Mortgagor thereunder to maintain the hazard insurance policy at the
Mortgagor's cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor's failure to do so,
authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to obtain and maintain such
insurance at such Mortgagor's cost and expense, and to seek reimbursement
therefor from the Mortgagor. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, where
required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given an
opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard insurance,
provided the policy is not a "master" or "blanket" hazard insurance policy
covering a condominium, or any hazard insurance policy covering the common
facilities of a planned unit development. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer
Date, the hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of
the insurer, is in full force and effect, and will be in full force and
effect and inure to the benefit of the Purchaser upon the consummation of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. WMC has not engaged in,
and has no knowledge of the Mortgagor's having engaged in, any act or
omission which would impair the coverage of any such policy, the benefits
of the endorsement provided for herein, or the validity and binding effect
of either including, without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission,
kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or
will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other
person or entity, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained
or realized by WMC;
(g) Compliance with Applicable Laws. Any and all requirements of any
federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury,
truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit
protection, equal credit opportunity, disclosure and all predatory,
abusive and fair lending laws applicable to the Mortgage Loan, including,
without limitation, any provisions relating to the Prepayment Penalty, if
any, applicable to such Mortgage Loan, have been complied with, the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not involve the
violation of any such laws or regulations, and WMC shall maintain in its
possession, available for the Purchaser's inspection, and shall deliver to
the Purchaser upon demand, evidence of compliance with all such
requirements to the extent compliance therewith can be demonstrated and if
required by applicable law. This representation and warranty is a Deemed
Material and Adverse Representation;
(h) No Satisfaction of Mortgage. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer
Date, the Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled, subordinated or
rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged Property has not been
released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any
instrument been executed that would effect any such release, cancellation,
subordination or rescission. WMC has not waived the performance by the
Mortgagor of any action, if the Mortgagor's failure to perform such action
would cause the Mortgage Loan to be in default, nor has WMC waived any
default resulting from any action or inaction by the Mortgagor;
(i) Type of Mortgaged Property. With respect to a Mortgage Loan that
is not a Co-op Loan, the Mortgaged Property is a fee simple estate or a
leasehold estate located in a jurisdiction in which the use of a leasehold
estate for residential properties is a widely accepted practice that
consists of one or more separate and complete tax parcels of real property
improved by a Residential Dwelling; provided, however, that any
condominium unit, planned unit development or residential cooperative
housing corporation (other than a de minimis planned unit development)
shall conform with the Underwriting Guidelines. In the case of any
Mortgaged Properties that are Manufactured Homes (a "Manufactured Home
Mortgage Loan"), (i) the related manufactured dwelling is permanently
affixed to the land, (ii) the related manufactured dwelling and the
related land are subject to a Mortgage properly filed in the appropriate
public recording office and naming Seller (or the Mortgage Loan
originator) as mortgagee, (iii) the applicable laws of the jurisdiction in
which the related Mortgaged Property is located will deem the manufactured
dwelling located on such Mortgaged Property to be a part of the real
property on which such dwelling is located, (iv) such manufactured Home
Mortgage Loan is (x) a qualified mortgage under Section 860G(a)(3) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and (y) secured by manufactured
housing treated as a single family residence under Section 25(e)(10) of
the Code and (v) as of the origination date of the related Mortgage Loan,
the related manufactured housing unit that secures such Mortgage Loan
either (x) was the principal residence of the Mortgagor or (y) was
classified as real property under applicable state law. No portion of the
Mortgaged Property (or underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a
Co-op Loan) is used for commercial purposes, and since the date of
origination, no portion of the Mortgaged Property has been used for
commercial purposes; provided, that Mortgaged Properties which contain a
home office shall not be considered as being used for commercial purposes
as long as the Mortgaged Property has not been altered for commercial
purposes and is not storing any chemicals or raw materials other than
those commonly used for homeowner repair, maintenance and/or household
purposes. None of the Mortgaged Properties are log homes, mobile homes,
geodesic domes or other unique property types. This representation and
warranty is a Deemed Material and Adverse Representation;
(j) Valid First or Second Lien. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer
Date, the Mortgage is a valid, subsisting, enforceable, first lien (with
respect to a First Lien Loan) or second lien (with respect to a Second
Lien Loan) on the Mortgaged Property, including all buildings and
improvements on the Mortgaged Property and all installations and
mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems
located in or annexed to such buildings, and all additions, alterations
and replacements made at any time with respect to the foregoing. As of the
WMC Servicing Transfer Date, the lien of the Mortgage is subject only to
(collectively, the "Permitted Exceptions"):
a. with respect to a Second Lien Loan only, the lien of the first
mortgage on the Mortgaged Property;
b. the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not
yet due and payable;
c. covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way,
easements and other matters of the public record as of the
date of recording acceptable to prudent mortgage lending
institutions generally and specifically referred to in the
lender's title insurance policy delivered to the originator of
the Mortgage Loan and which do not adversely affect the
Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property set forth in such
appraisal; and
d. other matters to which like properties are commonly subject
which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the
security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use,
enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged
Property.
Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to
and delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates
a valid, subsisting and enforceable first lien (with respect to a First
Lien Loan) or second lien (with respect to a Second Lien Loan) and first
priority (with respect to a First Lien Loan) or second priority (with
respect to a Second Lien Loan) security interest on the property described
therein and as of the Original Sale Date, WMC had full right to sell and
assign the same to the Purchaser, subject to the Permitted Exceptions;
(k) Valid First or Second Priority Security Interest. As of the WMC
Servicing Transfer Date, with respect to any Co-op Loan, the related
Mortgage is a valid, subsisting, and enforceable first priority security
interest (with respect to a First Lien Loan) or second priority security
interest (with respect to a Second Lien Loan) on the related cooperative
shares securing the Mortgage Note, subject only to (a) liens of the
related residential cooperative housing corporation for unpaid assessments
representing the Mortgagor's pro rata share of the related residential
cooperative housing corporation's payments for its blanket mortgage,
current and future real property taxes, insurance premiums, maintenance
fees and other assessments to which like collateral is commonly subject
and (b) other matters to which like collateral is commonly subject which
do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security interest
intended to be provided by the related Security Agreement;
(l) Request for Notice; No Consent Required. With respect to any
Second Lien Loan, where required or customary in the jurisdiction in which
the Mortgaged Property is located, the original lender has filed for
record a request for notice of any action by the related senior
lienholder, and WMC has notified the senior lienholder in writing of the
existence of the Second Lien Loan and requested notification of any action
to be taken against the Mortgagor by the senior lienholder. Either (a) no
consent for the Second Lien Loan is required by the holder of the related
first lien or (b) such consent has been obtained and is contained in the
Mortgage File. This representation and warranty is a Deemed Material and
Adverse Representation;
(m) Validity of Mortgage Documents. The Mortgage Note and the
Mortgage and any other agreement executed and delivered by a Mortgagor in
connection with a Mortgage Loan are genuine, and each is the legal, valid
and binding obligation of the maker thereof enforceable in accordance with
its terms (including, without limitation, any provisions relating to the
Prepayment Penalty, if any, applicable to the Mortgage Loan), except as
enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation,
receivership, moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws affecting
the enforcement of the rights of creditors and (ii) general principles of
equity, whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law.
All parties to the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any other such related
agreement had legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to
execute and deliver the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any such
agreement, and the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any other such related
agreement have been duly and properly executed by other such related
parties. No fraud, error, omission, misrepresentation, negligence or
similar occurrence with respect to a Mortgage Loan has taken place on the
part of WMC in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan or in
the application of any insurance in relation to such Mortgage Loan. No
fraud, error, omission, misrepresentation, negligence or similar
occurrence with respect to a Mortgage Loan has taken place on the part of
WMC in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan or in the
application of any insurance in relation to such Mortgage Loan.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, but without limiting the other
representations and warranties set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, if
any error, omission or negligence in the origination of such Mortgage Loan
occurred despite Seller's conformance with its Underwriting Guidelines (as
in effect at the time such Mortgage Loan was made), then there shall be a
presumptive conclusion that there was no error, omission or negligence. In
addition, omissions relating to information required under certain loan
programs will not constitute omissions for purposes hereof. No fraud,
misrepresentation, or similar occurrence or, to Seller's knowledge, error,
omission, or negligence with respect to a Mortgage Loan has taken place on
the part of any Person (other than Seller), including without limitation,
the Mortgagor, any appraiser, any builder or developer, or any other party
involved in the origination of the Mortgage Loan or in the application for
any insurance in relation to such Mortgage Loan. WMC has reviewed all of
the documents constituting the Servicing File and has made such inquiries
as it deems necessary to make and confirm the accuracy of the
representations set forth herein;
(n) Full Disbursement of Proceeds. The Mortgage Loan has been closed
and the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed and there
is no requirement for future advances thereunder, and any and all
requirements as to completion of any on-site or off-site improvement and
as to disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have been complied with.
All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage
Loan and the recording of the Mortgage were paid, and the Mortgagor is not
entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due under the Mortgage Note
or Mortgage;
(o) Ownership. As of the Original Sale Date, WMC was the sole owner
of record and holder of the Mortgage Loan and the indebtedness evidenced
by each Mortgage Note and upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the
Purchaser and up to the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, WMC retained the
Mortgage Files or any part thereof with respect thereto not delivered to
the Custodian, the Purchaser or the Purchaser's designee, in trust only
for the purpose of servicing and supervising the servicing of each
Mortgage Loan. As of the Original Sale Date, the Mortgage Loan was not
assigned or pledged, and WMC had good, indefeasible and marketable title
thereto, and had full right to transfer and sell the Mortgage Loan to the
Purchaser free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation
interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest, and had full
right and authority subject to no interest or participation of, or
agreement with, any other party, to sell and assign each Mortgage Loan
pursuant to the WMC Purchase Agreement and following the sale of each
Mortgage Loan, the Purchaser owned such Mortgage Loan free and clear of
any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge,
claim or security interest. Upon WMC's receipt of the Purchase Price, WMC
relinquished all rights to possess, control and monitor the Mortgage Loan.
After the Original Sale Date, WMC had no right to modify or alter the
terms of the sale of the Mortgage Loan and after the Securitization
Closing Date WMC has no obligation or right to repurchase the Mortgage
Loan or substitute another Mortgage Loan, except as provided in this
Agreement;
(p) Doing Business. As of the Original Sale Date, all parties which
have had any interest in the Mortgage Loan, whether as mortgagee,
assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the period in which they
held and disposed of such interest, were) (1) in compliance with any and
all applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the state wherein the
Mortgaged Property is located to the extent required to ensure
enforceability of the Mortgage Loan, and (2) either (i) organized under
the laws of such state, or (ii) qualified to do business in such state, or
(iii) a federal savings and loan association, a savings bank or a national
bank having a principal office in such state, or (3) not doing business in
such state;
(q) LTV, PMI Policy. No Mortgage Loan has an LTV or CLTV greater
than 100%. No Mortgage Loan is covered by a PMI Policy;
(r) Title Insurance. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, with
respect to a Mortgage Loan which is not a Co-op Loan, the Mortgage Loan is
covered by an ALTA lender's title insurance policy, or with respect to any
Mortgage Loan for which the related Mortgaged Property is located in
California a CLTA lender's title insurance policy, or other generally
acceptable form of policy or insurance acceptable to pursuant to WMC's
Underwriting Guidelines and each such title insurance policy is issued by
a title insurer acceptable to prudent lenders in the secondary mortgage
market and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the
Mortgaged Property is located, insuring WMC, its successors and assigns,
as to the first (with respect to a First Lien Loan) or second (with
respect to a Second Lien Loan) priority lien of the Mortgage in the
original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan (or to the extent a
Mortgage Note provides for negative amortization, the maximum amount of
negative amortization in accordance with the Mortgage), subject only to
the exceptions contained in clauses (a) of paragraph (j) of this Schedule
III, and in the case of Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loans, against any loss
by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting from
the provisions of the Mortgage providing for adjustment to the Mortgage
Interest Rate and Monthly Payment. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date,
where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given
the opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage title
insurance. Additionally, such lender's title insurance policy
affirmatively insures ingress and egress, and against encroachments by or
upon the Mortgaged Property or any interest therein. WMC (or its
predecessor-in-interest), its successor and assigns, are the sole insureds
of such lender's title insurance policy, and as of the WMC Servicing
Transfer Date, such lender's title insurance policy is valid and remains
in full force and effect and will be in force and effect upon the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. As of the
WMC Servicing Transfer Date, no claims have been made under such lender's
title insurance policy, and as of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, no
prior holder of the related Mortgage, including WMC, has done, by act or
omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such lender's title
insurance policy, including without limitation, no unlawful fee,
commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind
has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm
or other person or entity, and no such unlawful items have been received,
retained or realized by WMC;
(s) No Defaults. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, other than
payments due but not yet 30 days or more delinquent, there is no default,
breach, violation or event which would permit acceleration existing under
the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and no event which, with the passage of
time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would
constitute a default, breach, violation or event which would permit
acceleration, and neither WMC nor any of its affiliates nor any of their
respective predecessors, have waived any default, breach, violation or
event which would permit acceleration;
(t) No Mechanics' Liens. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date,
there are no mechanics' or similar liens or claims which have been filed
for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under the
law could give rise to such liens) affecting the related Mortgaged
Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with,
the lien of the related Mortgage;
(u) Location of Improvements; No Encroachments. All improvements
which were considered in determining the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged
Property lay wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines
of the Mortgaged Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties
encroach upon the Mortgaged Property. No improvement located on or being
part of the Mortgaged Property is in violation of any applicable zoning
law or regulation;
(v) Origination; Payment Terms. The Mortgage Loan was originated by
(i) a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development
pursuant to Sections 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act, a savings
and loan association, a savings bank, a commercial bank, credit union,
insurance company or other similar institution which is supervised and
examined by a federal or state authority or (ii) by a correspondent
mortgage banker or broker licensed or authorized to do business in the
jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located, as
indicated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, in which case the Mortgage Loan
was re-underwritten by WMC prior to purchasing the Mortgage Loan in
accordance with its Underwriting Guidelines in effect on the date such
Mortgage Loan was originated. Unless such Mortgage Loan is an
Interest-Only Loan, principal payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced no
more than seventy days after funds were disbursed in connection with the
Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Interest Rate as well as, in the case of an
Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loan, the Lifetime Rate Cap and the Periodic Cap
are as set forth on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule. Unless identified
on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule as an Interest-Only Loan or Balloon
Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Note is payable in equal monthly installments
of principal and interest, which installments of interest, with respect to
Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loans, are subject to change due to the
adjustments to the Mortgage Interest Rate on each Interest Rate Adjustment
Date, with interest calculated and payable in arrears, sufficient to
amortize the Mortgage Loan, unless such Mortgage Loan is an Interest-Only
Loan or Balloon Mortgage Loan, fully by the stated maturity date, over an
original term of not more than thirty years from commencement of
amortization (or forty or fifty years for Mortgage Loans identified on the
Mortgage Loan Schedule as a Balloon Mortgage Loan with a forty or fifty
year amortization period, as applicable), the Mortgage Loan is payable on
the first day of each month. Unless otherwise specified on the related
Mortgage Loan Schedule, the Mortgage Loan is payable on the first day of
each month. Unless identified on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule as a
Balloon Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Loan does not require a balloon
payment on its stated maturity date;
(w) Customary Provisions. The Mortgage contains customary and
enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the
holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property
of the benefits of the security provided thereby, including, (i) in the
case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee's sale, and
(ii) otherwise by judicial foreclosure. Upon default by a Mortgagor on a
Mortgage Loan and foreclosure on, or trustee's sale of, the Mortgaged
Property pursuant to the proper procedures, the holder of the Mortgage
Loan will be able to deliver good and merchantable title to the Mortgaged
Property. There is no homestead or other exemption available to a
Mortgagor which would interfere with the right to sell the Mortgaged
Property at a trustee's sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage,
subject to applicable federal and state laws and judicial precedent with
respect to bankruptcy and right of redemption or similar law;
(x) Conformance with Agency and Underwriting Guidelines. The
Mortgage Loan was underwritten in accordance with the Underwriting
Guidelines (a copy of which shall be attached to each related Assignment
and Conveyance Agreement). The Mortgage Note and Mortgage are on forms
acceptable to prudent lenders in the secondary mortgage market and WMC has
not made any representations to a Mortgagor that are inconsistent with the
mortgage instruments used;
(y) Occupancy of the Mortgaged Property. As of the related Closing
Date the Mortgaged Property is lawfully occupied under applicable law. All
inspections, licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with
respect to all occupied portions of the Mortgaged Property and, with
respect to the use and occupancy of the same, including but not limited to
certificates of occupancy and fire underwriting certificates, have been
made or obtained from the appropriate authorities. Unless otherwise
specified on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule, the Mortgagor represented
at the time of origination of the Mortgage Loan that the Mortgagor would
occupy the Mortgaged Property as the Mortgagor's primary residence;
(z) No Additional Collateral. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date,
the Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral except
the lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the security interest of any
applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage referred to in clause
(j) above;
(aa) Deeds of Trust. In the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of
trust, a trustee, authorized and duly qualified under applicable law to
serve as such, has been properly designated and currently so serves and is
named in the Mortgage, and no fees or expenses are or will become payable
by the Purchaser to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in
connection with a trustee's sale after default by the Mortgagor;
(bb) [Reserved];
(cc) Delivery of Mortgage Documents. The Mortgage Note, the
Mortgage, the Assignment of Mortgage and any other documents required to
be delivered under the Custodial Agreement for each Mortgage Loan have
been delivered to the Custodian. WMC is in possession of a complete, true
and accurate Mortgage File in compliance with Exhibit A hereto, except for
such documents the originals of which have been delivered to the
Custodian;
(dd) Condominiums/Planned Unit Developments. If the Mortgaged
Property is a condominium unit or a planned unit development (other than a
de minimis planned unit development) such condominium or planned unit
development project such Mortgage Loan was originated in accordance with,
and the Mortgaged Property meets the guidelines set forth in the
Underwriting Guidelines;
(ee) Transfer of Mortgage Loans. The Assignment of Mortgage (except
with respect to any Mortgage that has been recorded in the name of MERS or
its designee) with respect to each Mortgage Loan is in recordable form and
is acceptable for recording under the laws of the jurisdiction in which
the Mortgaged Property is located;
(ff) Due-On-Sale. With respect to each Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan, the
Mortgage contains a provision for the acceleration of the payment of the
unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in the event that the
Mortgaged Property is sold or transferred without the prior written
consent of the mortgagee thereunder, and to the best of WMC's knowledge,
such provision is enforceable, subject to bankruptcy, equitable principles
and laws affecting creditor rights;
(gg) Assumability. With respect to each Adjustable Rate Mortgage
Loan, the Mortgage Loan Documents do not allow an assumption of such
Mortgage Loan by any other party;
(hh) No Buydown Provisions; No Graduated Payments or Contingent
Interests. The Mortgage Loan does not contain provisions pursuant to which
Monthly Payments are paid or partially paid with funds deposited in any
separate account established by WMC, the Mortgagor, or anyone on behalf of
the Mortgagor, or paid by any source other than the Mortgagor nor does it
contain any other similar provisions which may constitute a "buydown"
provision. The Mortgage Loan is not a graduated payment mortgage loan and
the Mortgage Loan does not have a shared appreciation or other contingent
interest feature;
(ii) Consolidation of Future Advances. Any future advances made to
the Mortgagor prior to the applicable Cut-off Date have been consolidated
with the outstanding principal amount secured by the Mortgage, and the
secured principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single interest rate
and single repayment term. The lien of the Mortgage securing the
consolidated principal amount is expressly insured as having first (with
respect to a First Lien Loan) or second (with respect to a Second Lien
Loan) lien priority by a title insurance policy, an endorsement to the
policy insuring the mortgagee's consolidated interest or by other title
evidence acceptable to prudent lenders in the secondary market. The
consolidated principal amount does not exceed the original principal
amount of the Mortgage Loan;
(jj) Mortgaged Property Undamaged; No Condemnation Proceedings. As
of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, there is no proceeding pending or, to
WMC's knowledge, threatened for the total or partial condemnation of the
Mortgaged Property. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, the Mortgaged
Property is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth movement,
windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty so as to affect adversely the
value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan or the
use for which the premises were intended and as of the WMC Servicing
Transfer Date, each Mortgaged Property is in at least the same condition
or better than its condition at the time of its appraisal. As of the WMC
Servicing Transfer Date, there have not been any condemnation proceedings
with respect to the Mortgaged Property;
(kk) Collection Practices; Escrow Deposits; Interest Rate
Adjustments. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, the origination,
servicing and collection practices used by WMC with respect to the
Mortgage Loan have been in all respects in compliance with Accepted
Servicing Practices, applicable laws and regulations, and have been in all
respects legal and proper. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, with
respect to escrow deposits and Escrow Payments, all such payments are in
the possession of, or under the control of, WMC and there exist no
deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary arrangements for
repayment thereof have not been made. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer
Date, all Escrow Payments have been collected in full compliance with
state and federal law and the provisions of the related Mortgage Note and
Mortgage. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, an escrow of funds is not
prohibited by applicable law and has been established in an amount
sufficient to pay for every item that remains unpaid and has been assessed
but is not yet due and payable. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, no
escrow deposits or Escrow Payments or other charges or payments due WMC
have been capitalized under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note. As of the
WMC Servicing Transfer Date, all Mortgage Interest Rate adjustments have
been made in strict compliance with state and federal law and the terms of
the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note on the related Interest Rate
Adjustment Date. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, if, pursuant to
the terms of the Mortgage Note, another index was selected for determining
the Mortgage Interest Rate, the same index was used with respect to each
Mortgage Note which required a new index to be selected, and such
selection did not conflict with the terms of the related Mortgage Note.
WMC executed and delivered any and all notices required under applicable
law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage regarding the
Mortgage Interest Rate and the Monthly Payment adjustments. As of the WMC
Servicing Transfer Date, any interest required to be paid pursuant to
state, federal and local law has been properly paid and credited;
(ll) Conversion to Fixed Interest Rate. The Mortgage Loan is not a
Convertible Mortgage Loan;
(mm) Other Insurance Policies; No Defense to Coverage. As of the WMC
Servicing Transfer Date, no action, inaction or event has occurred and no
state of facts exists or has existed on or prior to the Closing Date that
has resulted or will result in the exclusion from, denial of, or defense
to coverage under any applicable hazard insurance policy, PMI Policy or
bankruptcy bond (including, without limitation, any exclusions, denials or
defenses which would limit or reduce the availability of the timely
payment of the full amount of the loss otherwise due thereunder to the
insured), irrespective of the cause of such failure of coverage. In
connection with the placement of any such insurance, no commission, fee,
or other compensation has been or will be received by WMC or by any
officer, director, or employee of WMC or any designee of WMC or any
corporation in which WMC or any officer, director, or employee had a
financial interest at the time of placement of such insurance;
(nn) No Violation of Environmental Laws. As of the WMC Servicing
Transfer Date, to the best of WMC's knowledge, (i) there is no pending
action or proceeding directly involving the Mortgaged Property in which
compliance with any environmental law, rule or regulation is an issue; and
(ii) as of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, there is no violation of any
environmental law, rule or regulation with respect to the Mortgage
Property;
(oo) Servicemembers' Civil Relief Act. As of the WMC Servicing
Transfer Date, the Mortgagor has not notified WMC, and WMC has no
knowledge of any relief requested or allowed to the Mortgagor under the
Relief Act, or other similar state statute;
(pp) Appraisal. The Mortgage File contains an appraisal of the
related Mortgaged Property signed prior to the approval of the Mortgage
Loan application by a Qualified Appraiser, who had no interest, direct or
indirect in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security
thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or
disapproval of the Mortgage Loan, and the appraisal and appraiser both
satisfy the requirements of the Underwriting Guidelines and Title XI of
the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989
and the regulations promulgated thereunder, all as in effect on the date
the Mortgage Loan was originated;
(qq) Disclosure Materials. WMC has executed a statement to the
effect that (i) the Mortgagor has received all disclosure materials
required by the Mortgagor, and (ii) WMC has complied with all applicable
law with respect to the making of the Mortgage Loans. WMC shall maintain
such statement in the Mortgage File;
(rr) Construction or Rehabilitation of Mortgaged Property. No
Mortgage Loan was made in connection with the construction (other than a
"construct-to-perm" loan) or rehabilitation of a Mortgaged Property or
facilitating the trade-in or exchange of a Mortgaged Property;
(ss) Escrow Analysis. If applicable, with respect to each Mortgage,
WMC has within the last twelve months (unless such Mortgage was originated
within such twelve month period) analyzed the required Escrow Payments for
each Mortgage and adjusted the amount of such payments so that, assuming
all required payments are timely made, any deficiency will be eliminated
on or before the first anniversary of such analysis, or any overage will
be refunded to the Mortgagor, in accordance with RESPA and any other
applicable law;
(tt) Prior Servicing. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer Date, each
Mortgage Loan has been serviced in all material respects in compliance
with Accepted Servicing Practices;
(uu) No Default Under First Lien. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer
Date, with respect to each Second Lien Loan, (a) the related First Lien
Loan related thereto is in full force and effect, and (b) there is no
default, breach, violation or event which would permit acceleration
existing under such first Mortgage or Mortgage Note, and (c) no event
which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any
grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or
event which would permit acceleration thereunder. This representation and
warranty is a Deemed Material and Adverse Representation;
(vv) Right to Cure First Lien. With respect to each Second Lien
Loan, the related first lien Mortgage contains a provision which provides
for giving notice of default or breach to the mortgagee under the Mortgage
Loan and allows such mortgagee to cure any default under the related first
lien Mortgage. This representation and warranty is a Deemed Material and
Adverse Representation;
(ww) No Failure to Cure Default. As of the WMC Servicing Transfer
Date, WMC has not received a written notice of default of any senior
mortgage loan related to the Mortgaged Property which has not been cured;
(xx) Credit Information. As to each consumer report (as defined in
the Fair Credit Reporting Act, Public Law 91-508) or other credit
information furnished by WMC to the Purchaser, that Seller has full right
and authority and is not precluded by law or contract from furnishing such
information to the Purchaser and the Purchaser is not precluded from
furnishing the same to any subsequent or prospective purchaser of such
Mortgage. WMC shall hold the Purchaser harmless from any and all damages,
losses, costs and expenses (including attorney's fees) arising from
disclosure of credit information in connection with the Purchaser's
secondary marketing operations and the purchase and sale of mortgages or
Servicing Rights thereto;
(yy) Leaseholds. If the Mortgage Loan is secured by a leasehold
estate, (1) the ground lease is assignable or transferable; (2) the ground
lease will not terminate earlier than five years after the maturity date
of the Mortgage Loan; (3) the ground lease does not provide for
termination of the lease in the event of lessee's default without the

Prepayment Penalty as provided in the related Mortgage Note is identified
on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule. With respect to each Mortgage Loan
that has a Prepayment Penalty feature, each such Prepayment Penalty is
enforceable and will be enforced by WMC for the benefit of the Purchaser
in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, and each Prepayment
Penalty is permitted pursuant to federal, state and local law. Each such
Prepayment Penalty is in an amount not more than the maximum amount
permitted under applicable law and no such Prepayment Penalty may provide
for a term in excess of five (5) years with respect to Mortgage Loans
originated prior to October, 1, 2002. With respect to Mortgage Loans
originated on or after October 1, 2002, the duration of the Prepayment
Penalty period shall not exceed three (3) years from the date of the
Mortgage Note unless the Mortgage Loan was modified to reduce the
Prepayment Penalty period to no more than three (3) years from the date of
the related Mortgage Note and the Mortgagor was notified in writing of
such reduction in Prepayment Penalty period. With respect to any Mortgage
Loan that contains a provision permitting imposition of a Prepayment
Penalty upon a prepayment prior to maturity: (i) the Mortgage Loan
provides some benefit to the Mortgagor (e.g., a rate or fee reduction) in
exchange for accepting such Prepayment Penalty, (ii) the Mortgage Loan's
originator had a written policy of offering the Mortgagor, or requiring
third-party brokers to offer the Mortgagor, the option of obtaining a

that such offer may have been evidenced by WMC's rate sheet/pricing grid
relating to such Mortgage Loan, which provided that the Mortgage Loan had
a full prepayment premium buy out pricing adjustment available, (iii) the
Prepayment Penalty was adequately disclosed to the Mortgagor in the
mortgage loan documents pursuant to applicable state, local and federal
law, and (iv) notwithstanding any state, local or federal law to the
contrary, as of the WMC Transfer Date, WMC has not imposed such Prepayment
Penalty in any instance when the mortgage debt is accelerated or paid off
in connection with the workout of a delinquent Mortgage Loan or as a
result of the Mortgagor's default in making the Mortgage Loan payments.
This representation and warranty is a Deemed Material and Adverse
Representation;
(aaa) Predatory Lending Regulations. No Mortgage Loan is a High Cost
Loan or Covered Loan, as applicable, and no Mortgage Loan originated on or
after October 1, 2002 through March 6, 2003 is governed by the Georgia
Fair Lending Act. No Mortgage Loan is covered by the Home Ownership and
Equity Protection Act of 1994 and no Mortgage Loan is in violation of any
comparable state or local law. This representation and warranty is a
Deemed Material and Adverse Representation;
(bbb) Qualified Mortgage. The Mortgage Loan is a "qualified mortgage
under Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code;
(ccc) Tax Service Contract. Each Mortgage Loan is covered by a paid
in full, life of loan, tax service contract issued by Fidelity National
Tax Service (or another tax service contract provider acceptable to
prudent lenders in the secondary market), and such contract is
transferable;
(ddd) Origination. No predatory or deceptive lending practices,
including, without limitation, the extension of credit without regard to
the ability of the Mortgagor to repay and the extension of credit which
has no apparent benefit to the Mortgagor, were employed in the origination
of the Mortgage Loan;
(eee) Recordation. Each original Mortgage was recorded and all
subsequent assignments of the original Mortgage (other than the assignment
to the Purchaser) have been recorded in the appropriate jurisdictions
wherein such recordation is necessary to perfect the lien thereof as
against creditors of WMC, or is in the process of being recorded;
(fff) Co-op Loans. With respect to a Mortgage Loan that is a Co-op
Loan, (i) a search for filings of financing statements has been made by a
company competent to make the same, which company is acceptable to Xxxxxx
Xxx and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the cooperative
unit is located, and such search has not found anything which would
materially and adversely affect the Co-op Loan, (ii) the stock that is
pledged as security for the Mortgage Loan is held by a person as a
"tenant-stockholder" and the related cooperative corporation that owns
title to the related cooperative apartment building is a "cooperative
housing corporation," each within the meaning of Section 216 of the Code
and (iii) there is no prohibition against pledging the shares of the

bankruptcy petition or has not become the subject and will not become the
subject of involuntary bankruptcy proceedings or has not consented to or
will not consent to the filing of a bankruptcy proceeding against it or to
a receiver being appointed in respect of the related Mortgaged Property;
(hhh) No Prior Offer. The Mortgage Loan has not previously been
rejected by a third party purchaser;
(iii) Credit Reporting. WMC has, in its capacity as servicer for
each Mortgage Loan, caused to be fully furnished, in accordance with the
Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implementing regulations, accurate and
complete information (i.e., favorable and unfavorable) on its borrower
credit files to Equifax, Experian, and Trans Union Credit Information
Company (three of the credit repositories), on a monthly basis. This
representation and warranty is a Deemed Material and Adverse
Representation;
(jjj) Xxxxxx Mae Guides Anti-Predatory Lending Eligibility. Each
Mortgage Loan is in compliance with the anti-predatory lending eligibility
for purchase requirements of Xxxxxx Xxx Guides. This representation and
warranty is a Deemed Material and Adverse Representation;
(kkk) Mortgagor Selection. The Mortgagor was not encouraged or
required to select a Mortgage Loan product offered by WMC which is a
higher cost product designed for less creditworthy mortgagors, unless at
the time of the Mortgage Loan's origination, such Mortgagor did not
qualify taking into account such facts as, without limitation, the
Mortgage Loan's requirements and the Mortgagor's credit history, income,
assets and liabilities and debt-to-income ratios for a lower-cost credit
product then offered by WMC or any Affiliate of WMC. If, at the time of
loan application, the Mortgagor may have qualified for a lower-cost credit
product then offered by any mortgage lending Affiliate of WMC, WMC
referred the related Mortgagor's application to such Affiliate for
underwriting consideration. For a Mortgagor who seeks financing through a
Mortgage Loan originator's higher-priced subprime lending channel, the
Mortgagor was directed towards or offered the Mortgage Loan originator's
standard mortgage line if the Mortgagor was able to qualify for one of the
standard products. This representation and warranty is a Deemed Material
and Adverse Representation;
(lll) Underwriting Methodology. The methodology used in underwriting
the extension of credit for each Mortgage Loan does not rely on the extent
of the related Mortgagor's equity in the collateral as the principal
determining factor in approving such extension of credit. The methodology
employed objective criteria that related such facts as, without
limitation, the Mortgagor's credit history, income, assets or liabilities,
to the proposed mortgage payment and, based on such methodology, the
Mortgage Loan's originator made a reasonable determination that at the
time of origination the Mortgagor had the ability to make timely payments
on the Mortgage Loan. Such underwriting methodology confirmed that at the
time of origination (application/approval) the related Mortgagor had a
reasonable ability to make timely payments on the Mortgage Loan. This
representation and warranty is a Deemed Material and Adverse
Representation;
(mmm) Purchase of Insurance. No Mortgagor was required to purchase
any single premium credit insurance policy (e.g., life, mortgage,
disability, property, accident, unemployment or health insurance product)
or debt cancellation agreement as a condition of obtaining the extension
of credit. No Mortgagor obtained a prepaid single-premium credit insurance
policy (e.g., life, disability, property, accident, unemployment, mortgage
or health insurance) in connection with the origination of the Mortgage
Loan. No proceeds from any Mortgage Loan were used to purchase single
premium credit insurance policies or debt cancellation agreements as part
of the origination of, or as a condition to closing, such Mortgage Loan.
This representation and warranty is a Deemed Material and Adverse
Representation;
(nnn) Points and Fees. Except as set forth on the related Mortgage
Loan Schedule, no Mortgagor was charged "points and fees" (whether or not
financed) in an amount greater than (i) $1,000 or (ii) 5% of the principal
amount of such Mortgage Loan, whichever is greater. For purposes of this
representation, such 5% limitation is calculated in accordance with Xxxxxx
Mae's anti-predatory lending requirements as set forth in the Xxxxxx Xxx
Guides and "points and fees" (x) include origination, underwriting, broker
and finder fees and charges that the mortgagee imposed as a condition of
making the Mortgage Loan, whether they are paid to the mortgagee or a
third party, and (y) exclude bona fide discount points, fees paid for
actual services rendered in connection with the origination of the
Mortgage Loan (such as attorneys' fees, notaries fees and fees paid for
property appraisals, credit reports, surveys, title examinations and
extracts, flood and tax certifications, and home inspections), the cost of
mortgage insurance or credit-risk price adjustments, the costs of title,
hazard, and flood insurance policies, state and local transfer taxes or
fees, escrow deposits for the future payment of taxes and insurance
premiums, and other miscellaneous fees and charges that, in total, do not
exceed 0.25% of the principal amount of such Mortgage Loan. This
representation and warranty is a Deemed Material and Adverse
Representation;
(ooo) Disclosure of Fees and Charges. All fees and charges
(including finance charges), whether or not financed, assessed, collected
or to be collected in connection with the origination and servicing of
each Mortgage Loan, have been disclosed in writing to the Mortgagor in
accordance with applicable state and federal law and regulation. This
representation and warranty is a Deemed Material and Adverse
Representation;
(ppp) No Arbitration. No Mortgage Loan originated on or after July
1, 2004 requires the related Mortgagor to submit to arbitration to resolve
any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Mortgage Loan
transaction. This representation and warranty is a Deemed Material and
Adverse Representation;
(qqq) Balloon Mortgage Loans. No Balloon Mortgage Loan has an
original stated maturity of less than seven (7) years;
(rrr) No Negative Amortization of Related First Lien Loan. With
respect to each Second Lien Loan, the related First Lien Loan does not
permit negative amortization. This representation and warranty is a Deemed
Material and Adverse Representation; and
(sss) Principal Residence. With respect to each Second Lien Loan,
the related Mortgaged Property is the Mortgagor's principal residence.
This representation and warranty is a Deemed Material and Adverse
Representation.

transactions contemplated by this Agreement are in the ordinary course of
business of WMC, and the transfer, assignment and conveyance of the
Mortgage Notes and the Mortgages by WMC pursuant to this Agreement are not
subject to the bulk transfer or any similar statutory provisions in effect
in any applicable jurisdiction;

charter, by-laws or other organizational documents or any legal
restriction or any agreement or instrument to which WMC is now a party or
by which it is bound, or constitute a default or result in an acceleration
under any of the foregoing, or result in the violation of any law, rule,
regulation, order, judgment or decree to which WMC or its property is
subject, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or
encumbrance that would have an adverse effect upon any of its properties
pursuant to the terms of any mortgage, contract, deed of trust or other
instrument, or impair the ability of the Purchaser to realize on the
Mortgage Loans, impair the value of the Mortgage Loans, or impair the
ability of the Purchaser to realize the full amount of any insurance
benefits accruing pursuant to this Agreement;
(e) No Litigation Pending. There is no action, suit, proceeding or
investigation pending or, to WMC's knowledge, threatened against WMC,
before any court, administrative agency or other tribunal asserting the
invalidity of this Agreement, seeking to prevent the consummation of any
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or which, either in any
one instance or in the aggregate, would likely result in any material
adverse change in the business, operations, financial condition,
properties or assets of WMC, or in any material impairment of the right or
ability of WMC to carry on its business substantially as now conducted, or
in any material liability on the part of WMC, or which would draw into
question the validity of this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans or of any
action taken or to be taken in connection with the obligations of WMC
contemplated herein, or which would be likely to impair materially the
ability of WMC to perform under the terms of this Agreement;
(f) Ability to Perform; Solvency. WMC does not believe, nor does it
have any reason or cause to believe, that it cannot perform each and every
covenant contained in this Agreement. WMC is solvent and the sale of the
Mortgage Loans will not cause WMC to become insolvent. The sale of the
Mortgage Loans is not undertaken with the intent to hinder, delay or
defraud any of Seller's creditors;
(g) Seller's Origination. WMC's decision to originate any mortgage
loan or to deny any mortgage loan application is an independent decision
based upon the Underwriting Guidelines, and is in no way made as a result
of Purchaser's decision to purchase, or not to purchase, or the price
Purchaser may offer to pay for, any such mortgage loan, if originated;

Seller and as required by the Anti-Money Laundering Laws, has conducted
the requisite due diligence in connection with the origination of each
Mortgage Loan to the extent required by and for purposes of the Anti-Money
Laundering Laws, including with respect to the legitimacy of the
applicable Mortgagor and the origin of the assets used by the said
Mortgagor to purchase the property in question, and maintains, and will
maintain, sufficient information to identify the applicable Mortgagor for
purposes of the Anti-Money Laundering Laws. Additionally, no Mortgage Loan

and correct in all material respects. There has been no change in the
business, operations, financial condition, properties or assets of WMC
since the date of WMC's financial statements that would have a material
adverse effect on its ability to perform its obligations under this
Agreement. WMC has completed any forms requested by the Purchaser in a
timely manner and in accordance with the provided instructions;

furnished or to be furnished pursuant to this Agreement or any
Reconstitution Agreement or in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby (including any Securitization Transfer or Whole Loan

Mortgage Loans as a sale on the books and records of WMC;
(p) Owner of Record. WMC is the owner of record of each Mortgage and
the indebtedness evidenced by each Mortgage Note, except for the
Assignments of Mortgage which have been sent for recording, and upon
recordation WMC will be the owner of record of each Mortgage and the
indebtedness evidenced by each Mortgage Note, and upon the sale of the
Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, WMC will retain the Mortgage Files with
respect thereto in trust only for the purpose of servicing and supervising

Material and Adverse Representation; and

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 therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for
registration of transfer at the offices designated by the Trustee for such
purposes, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory

authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same
Class in authorized denominations and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage
Interest in the Trust Fund will be issued to the designated transferee or

any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Pass-Through Certificates, of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein
collectively called the "Certificates"), and representing a beneficial ownership
interest in the Trust Fund created by the Agreement.
The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees

payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders
for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as
expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the
Agreement.
This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of
rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Trustee.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution 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 (the "Distribution Date"), commencing on the
first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the Person in whose
name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the applicable
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
Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such
Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement. The Record Date applicable to each
Distribution Date is the last Business Day of the month next preceding the month
of such Distribution Date.
Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the account of the Holder hereof at a bank or
other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder
shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior
to the related Record Date and such Certificateholder shall satisfy the
conditions to receive such form of payment set forth in the Agreement, or, if
not, by check mailed by first class mail to the address of such
Certificateholder appearing in the Certificate Register. The final distribution
on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and
surrender of such Certificate at the offices designated by the Trustee for such
purposes or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of
such final distribution.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the

Agreement. 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 therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for
registration of transfer at the offices designated by the Trustee for such
purposes, accompanied by a 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 and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage
Interest in the Trust Fund will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates
without coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the
Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are
exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations
and 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, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Depositor and the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor or the
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the
owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Depositor, the Trustee, nor any
such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than or equal to 10% of the Cut-off Date
Pool Principal Balance, the Servicer will have the option to repurchase, in
whole, from the Trust Fund all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property
acquired in respect of the Mortgage Loans at a purchase price determined as
provided in the Agreement. The obligations and responsibilities created by the

Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2006-WM3
STATE OF )
) ss.:
COUNTY OF )
The undersigned, being first duly sworn, deposes and says as
follows:
1. The undersigned is an officer of ___________________, the
proposed Transferee of an Ownership Interest in a Class [R-I] [R-II] Certificate
(the "Certificate") issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (the
"Agreement"), relating to the above-referenced Series, by and among Securitized
Asset Backed Receivables LLC, as depositor (the "Depositor"), HomEq Servicing,
as Servicer, WMC Mortgage Corp., as Responsible Party, Deutsche Bank National
Trust Company, as Trustee and Xxxxx Fargo Bank, National Association, as
Custodian. Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein, shall have the
meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement. The Transferee has authorized
the undersigned to make this affidavit on behalf of the Transferee for the
benefit of the Depositor and the Trustee.
2. The Transferee is, as of the date hereof, and will be, as of the
date of the Transfer, a Permitted Transferee. The Transferee is acquiring its
Ownership Interest in the Certificate for its own account. The Transferee has no
knowledge that any such affidavit is false.
3. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that (i) a
tax will be imposed on Transfers of the Certificate to Persons that are
Non-Permitted Transferees; (ii) such tax will be imposed on the transferor, or,
if such Transfer is through an agent (which includes a broker, nominee or
middleman) for a Person that is a Non-Permitted Transferee, on the agent; and
(iii) the Person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability for
the tax if the subsequent Transferee furnished to such Person an affidavit that
such subsequent Transferee is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of
Transfer, such Person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is
false.
4. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that a tax
will be imposed on a "pass-through entity" holding the Certificate if at any
time during the taxable year of the pass-through entity a Person that is a
Non-Permitted Transferee is the record holder of an interest in such entity. The
Transferee understands that such tax will not be imposed for any period with
respect to which the record holder furnishes to the pass-through entity an
affidavit that such record holder is a Permitted Transferee and the pass-through
entity does not have actual knowledge that such affidavit is false. (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 and, except as may be provided in Treasury Regulations,
persons holding interests in pass-through entities as a nominee for another
Person.)
5. The Transferee has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.02(c) of
the Agreement and understands the legal consequences of the acquisition of an
Ownership Interest in the Certificate including, without limitation, the
restrictions on subsequent Transfers and the provisions regarding voiding the
Transfer and mandatory sales. The Transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and
to abide by the provisions of Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement and the
restrictions noted on the face of the Certificate. The Transferee understands
and agrees that any breach of any of the representations included herein shall
render the Transfer to the Transferee contemplated hereby null and void.
6. The Transferee agrees to require a Transfer Affidavit from any
Person to whom the Transferee attempts to Transfer its Ownership Interest in the
Certificate, and in connection with any Transfer by a Person for whom the
Transferee is acting as nominee, trustee or agent, and the Transferee will not
Transfer its Ownership Interest or cause any Ownership Interest to be
Transferred to any Person that the Transferee knows is a Non-Permitted
Transferee. In connection with any such Transfer by the Transferee, the
Transferee agrees to deliver to the Trustee a certificate substantially in the
form set forth as Exhibit H to the Agreement (a "Transferor Certificate") to the
effect that, among other things, such Transferee has no actual knowledge that
the Person to which the Transfer is to be made is a Non-Permitted Transferee.
7. The Transferee does not have the intention to impede the
assessment or collection of any tax legally required to be paid with respect to
the Certificate. The Transferee has historically paid its debts as they have
come due and intends to pay its debts as they come due in the future. The
Transferee intends to pay all taxes due with respect to the Certificate as they
become due.
8. The Transferee's taxpayer identification number is __________.
9. The Transferee is not a Disqualified Non-U.S. Person as defined
in the Agreement.
10. The Transferee is aware that the Certificate may be a
"noneconomic residual interest" within the meaning of proposed Treasury
regulations promulgated pursuant to 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 was to impede the assessment or collection of tax.
11. The Transferee will not cause income from the Residual
Certificate to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed
base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the Transferee
or any other U.S. Person.
12. Check the applicable paragraph:
[ ] The present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated
with holding the Certificate, as applicable, does not exceed the sum of:
a. the present value of any consideration given to the Transferee
to acquire such Certificate;
b. the present value of the expected future distributions on such
Certificate; and
c. the present value of the anticipated tax savings associated
with holding such Certificate as the related REMIC generates
losses.
For purposes of this calculation, (i) the Transferee is assumed to
pay tax at the highest rate currently specified in Section 11(b) of the Code
(but the tax rate in Section 55(b)(1)(B) of the Code may be used in lieu of the
highest rate specified in Section 11(b) of the Code if the Transferee has been
subject to the alternative minimum tax under Section 55 of the Code in the
preceding two years and will compute its taxable income in the current taxable
year using the alternative minimum tax rate) and (ii) present values are
computed using a discount rate equal to the short-term Federal rate prescribed
by Section 1274(d) of the Code for the month of the transfer and the compounding
period used by the Transferee.
[ ] The transfer of the Certificate complies with U.S. Treasury
Regulations Sections 1.860E-1(c)(5) and (6) and, accordingly,
(i) the Transferee is an "eligible corporation," as defined in U.S.
Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), as to which income from
the Certificate will only be taxed in the United States;
(ii) at the time of the transfer, and at the close of the
Transferee's two fiscal years preceding the year of the transfer, the
Transferee had gross assets for financial reporting purposes (excluding
any obligation of a person related to the Transferee within the meaning of
U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(ii)) in excess of $100
million and net assets in excess of $10 million;
(iii) the Transferee will transfer the Certificate only to another
"eligible corporation," as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section
1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), in a transaction that satisfies the requirements of
Sections 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i), (ii) and (iii) and Section 1.860E-1(c)(5) of
the U.S. Treasury Regulations; and
(iv) the Transferee determined the consideration paid to it to
acquire the Certificate based on reasonable market assumptions (including,
but not limited to, borrowing and investment rates, prepayment and loss
assumptions, expense and reinvestment assumptions, tax rates and other
factors specific to the Transferee) that it has determined in good faith.
[ ] None of the above.
13. The Transferee is not an employee benefit plan that is subject
to Title I of ERISA or a plan that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a
plan subject to any Federal, state or local law that is substantially similar to
Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and the Transferee is not acting
on behalf of or investing plan assets of such a plan.

Ladies and Gentlemen:
In connection with our disposition of the above Certificates we
certify that (a) we understand that the Certificates have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), and are being disposed
by us in a transaction that is exempt from the registration requirements of the
Act, (b) we have not offered or sold any Certificates to, or solicited offers to
buy any Certificates from, any person, or otherwise approached or negotiated
with any person with respect thereto, in a manner that would be deemed, or taken
any other action which would result in, a violation of Section 5 of the Act and
(c) to the extent we are disposing of a Residual Certificate, (i) we have no
knowledge the Transferee is a Non-Permitted Transferee and (ii) after conducting
a reasonable investigation of the financial condition of the Transferee, we have
no knowledge and no reason to believe that the Transferee will not pay all taxes
with respect to the Residual Certificates as they become due and (iii) we have
no reason to believe that the statements made in paragraphs 7, 10 and 11 of the
Transferee's Residual Transfer Affidavit are false.
Very truly yours,

Terminated Transactions, a Firm Offer which is (1) made by a
Reference Market-maker that is an Eligible Replacement, (2)
for an amount that would be paid to Party B (expressed as a
negative number) or by Party B (expressed as a positive
number) in consideration of an agreement between Party B and
such Reference Market-maker to enter into a Replacement
Transaction, and (3) made on the basis that Unpaid Amounts in
respect of the Terminated Transaction or group of Transactions
are to be excluded but, without limitation, any payment or
delivery that would, but for the relevant Early Termination
Date, have been required (assuming satisfaction of each
applicable condition precedent) after that Early Termination
Date is to be included.
(B) The definition of Settlement Amount shall be deleted in its
entirety and replaced with the following:
"Settlement Amount" means, with respect to any Early
Termination Date, an amount (as determined by Party B based

in writing to Party A, but in either case no later
than one Local Business Day prior to the Early
Termination Date (such day, the "Latest Settlement
Amount Determination Day"), the Termination Currency

negative) of such Market Quotation;
(b) If, on the Latest Settlement Amount Determination Day,
no Market Quotation for the relevant Terminated
Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions has
been accepted by Party B so as to become legally
binding and one or more Market Quotations from
Approved Replacements have been made and remain
capable of becoming legally binding upon acceptance,
the Settlement Amount shall equal the Termination
Currency Equivalent of the amount (whether positive or
negative) of the lowest of such Market Quotations (for
the avoidance of doubt, the lowest of such Market
Quotations shall be the lowest Market Quotation of
such Market Quotations expressed as a positive number
or, if any of such Market Quotations is expressed as a
negative number, the Market Quotation expressed as a
negative number with the largest absolute value); or
(c) If, on the Latest Settlement Amount Determination Day,
no Market Quotation for the relevant Terminated
Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions is
accepted by Party B so as to become legally binding
and no Market Quotation from an Approved Replacement
remains capable of becoming legally binding upon
acceptance, the Settlement Amount shall equal Party
B's Loss (whether positive or negative and without
reference to any Unpaid Amounts) for the relevant
Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated

6(e)(i)(3) shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with

and Market Quotation apply, (I) Party B shall pay to Party A
an amount equal to the absolute value of the Settlement Amount
in respect of the Terminated Transactions, (II) Party B shall
pay to Party A the Termination Currency Equivalent of the
Unpaid Amounts owing to Party A and (III) Party A shall pay to
Party B the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid
Amounts owing to Party B; provided, however, that (x) the
amounts payable under the immediately preceding clauses (II)
and (III) shall be subject to netting in accordance with
Section 2(c) of this Agreement and (y) notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, any amount payable by Party
A under the immediately preceding clause (III) shall not be
netted-off against any amount payable by Party B under the
immediately preceding clause (I)."
(E) At any time on or before the Latest Settlement Amount
Determination Day at which two or more Market Quotations
from Approved Replacements remain capable of becoming
legally binding upon acceptance, Party B shall be entitled
to accept only the lowest of such Market Quotations (for the
avoidance of doubt, the lowest of such Market Quotations
shall be the lowest Market Quotation of such Market
Quotations expressed as a positive number or, if any of such
Market Quotations is expressed as a negative number, the
Market Quotation expressed as a negative number with the
largest absolute value).
(ii) The Second Method will apply.

use commercially reasonable efforts to procure either (A) a Permitted
Transfer or (B) an Eligible Guarantee from an Eligible Guarantor.
(e) Transfers.
(i) Section 7 is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
"Subject to Section 6(b)(ii), neither Party A nor Party B is
permitted to assign, novate or transfer (whether by way of security
or otherwise) as a whole or in part any of its rights, obligations
or interests under the Agreement or any Transaction without (a) the
prior written consent of the other party and (b) satisfaction of the
Rating Agency Condition, except that:
(a) a party may make such a transfer of this Agreement pursuant to
a consolidation or amalgamation with, or merger with or into,
or transfer of all or substantially all its assets to, another
entity (but without prejudice to any other right or remedy
under this Agreement);
(b) a party may make such a transfer of all or any part of its
interest in any amount payable to it from a Defaulting Party
under Section 6(e); and
(c) Party A may transfer or assign this Agreement to any Person,
including, without limitation, another of Party A's offices,
branches or affiliates (any such Person, office, branch or
affiliate, a "Transferee") on at least five Business Days'
prior written notice to Party B and the Trustee; provided
that, with respect to this clause (c), (A) as of the date of
such transfer the Transferee will not be required to withhold
or deduct on account of a Tax from any payments under this
Agreement unless the Transferee will be required to make
payments of additional amounts pursuant to Section 2(d)(i)(4)
of this Agreement in respect of such Tax (B) a Termination
Event or Event of Default does not occur under this Agreement
as a result of such transfer; (C) such notice is accompanied
by a written instrument pursuant to which the Transferee
acquires and assumes the rights and obligations of Party A so
transferred; (D) Party A will be responsible for any costs or
expenses incurred in connection with such transfer and (E)
Party A obtains in respect of such transfer a written
acknowledgement of satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition
(except for Xxxxx'x). Party B will execute such documentation
provided to it as is reasonably deemed necessary by Party A
for the effectuation of any such transfer."
(ii) If an Eligible Replacement has made a Firm Offer (which remains an
offer that will become legally binding upon acceptance by Party B)
to be the transferee pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, Party B
shall, at Party A's written request and at Party A's expense,
execute such documentation provided to it as is reasonably deemed
necessary by Party A to effect such transfer.
(iii) Upon any transfer of this Agreement by Party A, each of the
transferee and the transferor must be a "dealer in notional
principal contracts" for purposes of Treasury regulations section
1.1001-4(a). For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee is not
obligated to determine whether each of the transferee and the
transferor are such "dealers in notional principal contracts."
(f) Non-Recourse. Party A acknowledges and agree that, notwithstanding any
provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the obligations of Party B
hereunder are limited recourse obligations of Party B, payable solely from
the Trust and the proceeds thereof, in accordance with the priority of
payments and other terms of the Base Agreement and that Party A will not
have any recourse to any of the directors, officers, employees,
shareholders or affiliates of the Party B with respect to any claims,
losses, damages, liabilities, indemnities or other obligations in
connection with any transactions contemplated hereby. In the event that
the Trust and the proceeds thereof, should be insufficient to satisfy all
claims outstanding and following the realization of the account held by
the Trust and the proceeds thereof, any claims against or obligations of
Party B under the ISDA Master Agreement or any other confirmation
thereunder still outstanding shall be extinguished and thereafter not
revive. The Trustee shall not have liability for any failure or delay in
making a payment hereunder to Party A due to any failure or delay in
receiving amounts in the account held by the Trust from the Trust created
pursuant to the Base Agreement. This provision will survive the
termination of this Agreement.
(g) Rating Agency Notifications. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, no Early Termination Date shall be effectively designated
hereunder by Party B and no transfer of any rights or obligations under
this Agreement shall be made by either party unless each Swap Rating
Agency has been given prior written notice of such designation or
transfer.
(h) No Set-off. Except as expressly provided for in Section 2(c), Section 6
or Part 1(f)(i)(D) hereof, and notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement or any other existing or future agreement, each party
irrevocably waives any and all rights it may have to set off, net,
recoup or otherwise withhold or suspend or condition payment or
performance of any obligation between it and the other party hereunder
against any obligation between it and the other party under any other
agreements. Section 6(e) shall be amended by deleting the following
sentence: "The amount, if any, payable in respect of an Early
Termination Date and determined pursuant to this Section will be subject
to any Set-off.".
(i) Amendment. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this
Agreement, no amendment of either this Agreement or any Transaction
under this Agreement shall be permitted by either party unless each of
the Swap Rating Agencies has been provided prior written notice of the
same and each relevant Swap Rating Agency (other than Xxxxx'x) confirms
in writing (including by facsimile transmission) that it will not
downgrade, withdraw or otherwise modify its then-current ratings of the
Certificates or the Notes.
(j) Notice of Certain Events or Circumstances. Each Party agrees, upon
learning of the occurrence or existence of any event or condition that
constitutes (or that with the giving of notice or passage of time or
both would constitute) an Event of Default or Termination Event with
respect to such party, promptly to give the other Party and to each Swap
Rating Agency notice of such event or condition; provided that failure
to provide notice of such event or condition pursuant to this Part 5(j)
shall not constitute an Event of Default or a Termination Event.
(k) Proceedings. No Relevant Entity shall institute against, or cause any
other person to institute against, or join any other person in
instituting against Party B, the Trust, or the trust formed pursuant to
the Base Agreement, in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings under any
federal or state bankruptcy or similar law for a period of one year (or,
if longer, the applicable preference period) and one day following
payment in full of the Certificates and any Notes; provided, however,
that nothing will preclude, or be deemed to stop, Party A (i) from
taking any action prior to the expiration of the aforementioned one year
and one day period, or if longer the applicable preference period then
in effect, in (A) any case or proceeding voluntarily filed or commenced
by Party B or (B) any involuntary insolvency proceeding filed or
commenced by a Person other than Party A, or (ii) from commencing
against Party B or any of the Collateral any legal action which is not a
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, moratorium,
liquidation or similar proceeding. This provision will survive the
termination of this Agreement.
(l) Trustee Liability Limitations. It is expressly understood and agreed by
the parties hereto that (a) this Agreement is executed by Deutsche Bank
National Trust Company ("DBNTC") not in its individual capacity, but
solely as Trustee under the Base Agreement in the exercise of the powers
and authority conferred and invested in it thereunder; (b) DBNTC has
been directed pursuant to the Base Agreement to enter into this
Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder; (c) each of the
representations, undertakings and agreements herein made on behalf of
the Trust is made and intended not as personal representations of DBNTC
but is made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Trust; and
(d) under no circumstances shall DBNTC in its individual capacity be
personally liable for any payments hereunder or for the breach or
failure of any obligation, representation, warranty or covenant made or
undertaken under this Agreement.
(m) Severability. If any term, provision, covenant, or condition of this
Agreement, or the application thereof to any party or circumstance,
shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable (in whole or in part) in
any respect, the remaining terms, provisions, covenants, and conditions
hereof shall continue in full force and effect as if this Agreement had
been executed with the invalid or unenforceable portion eliminated, so
long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without
material change, the original intentions of the parties as to the
subject matter of this Agreement and the deletion of such portion of
this Agreement will not substantially impair the respective benefits or
expectations of the parties; provided, however, that this severability
provision shall not be applicable if any provision of Section 2, 5, 6,
or 13 (or any definition or provision in Section 14 to the extent it
relates to, or is used in or in connection with any such Section) shall
be so held to be invalid or unenforceable.
The parties shall endeavor to engage in good faith negotiations to replace
any invalid or unenforceable term, provision, covenant or condition with a
valid or enforceable term, provision, covenant or condition, the economic
effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid or
unenforceable term, provision, covenant or condition.

recording, at any time and from time to time, by the other party of any
and all communications between trading, marketing, and operations
personnel of the parties and their Affiliates, waives any further notice
of such monitoring or recording, and agrees to notify such personnel of
such monitoring or recording.

by jury in respect of any in respect of any suit, action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement or any Credit Support Document.

capacity as swap provider, has had and will have no involvement in and,

7) Other Provisions:
(a) Fully-Paid Party Protected. Notwithstanding the terms of Sections 5 and 6 of
the Agreement, if Party B has satisfied in full all its payment obligations
under Section 2(a)(i) of the Agreement, then unless Party A is required pursuant
to appropriate proceedings to return to Party B or otherwise returns to Party B
upon demand of Party B any portion of such payment, (a) the occurrence of an
event described in Section 5(a) of the Agreement with respect to Party B shall
not constitute an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default with respect to
Party B as the Defaulting Party and (b) Party A shall be entitled to designate
an Early Termination Event pursuant to Section 6 of the Agreement only as a
result of a Termination Event set forth in either Section 5(b)(i) or Section
5(b)(ii) of the Agreement with respect to Party A as the Affected Party or
Section 5(b)(iii) of the Agreement with respect to Party A as the Burdened
Party. For purposes of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates, Party
B's only obligation under Section 2(a)(i) of the Agreement is to pay the Fixed
Amount on the Fixed Rate Payer Payment Date.
Trustee Capacity. It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto
that (i) this Confirmation is executed and delivered by Deutsche Bank National
Trust Company, not individually or personally but solely as Trustee of the Trust
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement pursuant to which the Trust was
formed, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred upon and vested in
it, and pursuant to instructions set forth therein, (ii) each of the
representations, undertakings and agreements by Deutsche Bank National Trust
Company is made and intended not as a personal representation, undertaking or
agreement of Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, but solely for the purpose of
binding only the Trust, (iii) nothing herein contained shall be construed as
imposing any liability upon Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, individually
or personally, to perform any covenant (either express or implied) contained
herein, and all such liability, if any, is hereby expressly waived by the
parties hereto, and such waiver shall bind any third party making a claim by or
through one of the parties hereto, and (iv) under no circumstances shall
Deutsche Bank National Trust Company be personally liable for the payment of any
indebtedness or expenses of the Trust, or be liable for the breach or failure of
any obligation, representation, warranty or covenant made or undertaken by the
Trust under this Confirmation, the Agreement or any related document.
(b) Proceedings. Party A shall not institute against or cause any other person
to institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, Party B,
any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation
proceedings, or other proceedings under any federal or state bankruptcy,
dissolution or similar law, for a period of one year and one day (or, if longer,

Certificates, provided that nothing herein will preclude, or be deemed to estop,
Party A from taking any action in any case or proceeding voluntarily filed or
commenced by or on behalf of Party B or in any involuntary case or proceeding
pertaining to Party B after it has been commenced.
(c) Set-Off. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any other
existing or future agreement, each party irrevocably waives any and all rights
it may have to set off, net, recoup or otherwise withhold or suspend or

party hereunder against any obligation between it and the other party under any
other agreements. The provisions for Set-off set forth in Section 6(e) of the
Agreement shall not apply for purposes of this Transaction, provided that
nothing herein shall be construed to waive or otherwise limit the netting
provisions contained in Section 2(c) or 6(e) of this Agreement.
(d) Severability. If any term, provision, covenant, or condition of this
Agreement, or the application thereof to any party or circumstance, shall be
held to be invalid or unenforceable (in whole or in part) for any reason, the
remaining terms, provisions, covenants, and conditions hereof shall continue in
full force and effect as if this Agreement had been executed with the invalid or
unenforceable portion eliminated, so long as this Agreement as so modified
continues to express, without material change, the original intentions of the
parties as to the subject matter of this Agreement and the deletion of such
portion of this Agreement will not substantially impair the respective benefits
or expectations of the parties.
The parties shall endeavor to engage in good faith negotiations to replace any
invalid or unenforceable term, provision, covenant or condition with a valid or
enforceable term, provision, covenant or condition, the economic effect of which
comes as close as possible to that of the invalid or unenforceable term,
provision, covenant or condition.

will apply, in each case with respect to Party B as the sole Affected
Party (unless otherwise provided below):

the Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement is given by the Trustee to Certificateholders pursuant to

exercise its option to purchase the Mortgage Loans can no longer be
withdrawn or rescinded in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.
(ii) Upon the irrevocable direction to dissolve or otherwise terminate the
Trust following which all assets of the Trust will be required to be
