Class 4-A-4, Class 4-A-5, Class 4-A-6, Class 4-A-7, Class 4-A-8, Class 5-A-1,
Class 5-A-2 and Class 5-A-3 Certificates and (ii) the Class B-1, Class B-2,
Class B-3, Class B-4, Class B-5 and Class B-6 Certificates. The descriptions of

pursuant to the terms of Section 11.01 hereof in a manner that preserves the
validity of such REMIC elections described below.

Interest will represent the sole class of "residual interests" in the Lower-Tier
REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The following table irrevocably sets
forth the designation, the Uncertificated Lower-Tier REMIC Pass-Through Rate,
the initial Uncertificated Balance, and solely for purposes of satisfying
Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the "latest possible maturity

The foregoing Lower-Tier REMIC and Middle-Tier REMIC structure is intended
to cause all the cash from the Mortgage Loans to flow through the Upper-Tier
REMIC as cash flow on an Upper-Tier Regular Interest, without creating any
shortfall, actual or potential (other than for losses), to any Upper-Tier
Regular Interest. To the extent that the structure is believed to diverge from
such intention, the party identifying such ambiguity or drafting error shall
notify the other parties hereto, and the parties hereto shall attempt to resolve
such ambiguity or drafting error in accordance with Section 11.01 hereto.

Regular Interests as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes, and such
segregated pool of assets will be designated as the "Upper-Tier REMIC." The UR

be. In the event that the original Mortgage is not delivered and in connection
with the payment in full of the related Mortgage Loan the public recording
46
office requires the presentation of a "lost instruments affidavit and indemnity"
or any equivalent document, because only a copy of the Mortgage can be delivered
with the instrument of satisfaction or reconveyance, the Depositor shall
prepare, execute and deliver or cause to be prepared, executed and delivered, on
behalf of the Trust, such a document to the public recording office.
Upon discovery by the Depositor or notice from Xxxxx Fargo, the Master
Servicer, the Securities Administrator or Trustee that a Document Transfer Event
has occurred, the Depositor shall, with respect to Mortgage Loans purchased by
the Sponsor from Xxxxx Fargo, deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee or
a Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, within 60 days copies (which may be in
electronic form mutually agreed upon by the Depositor and the Trustee or such
Custodian) of the following additional documents or instruments to the Mortgage
File with respect to each such Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that originals
of such documents or instruments shall be delivered to the Trustee or a
Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, as applicable, if originals are required
under the law in which the related Mortgaged Property is located in order to
exercise all remedies available to the Trust under applicable law following
default by the related Mortgagor:
(1) other than if the related Mortgage has been recorded in the
name of MERS or its designee, originals of all interim recorded assignments of
such mortgage or a copy of such interim assignments certified by Xxxxx Fargo
(which may be part of a blanket certification) as being a true and complete copy
of the original recorded intervening assignments of Mortgage (each such
assignment, when duly and validly completed, to be in recordable form and
sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer to the assignee thereof,
under the Mortgage to which the assignment relates);
(2) the original or a certified copy of the lender's title
insurance policy;
(3) the original Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon,
and the original recorded power of attorney, if the Mortgage was executed
pursuant to a power of attorney, with evidence of recording thereon or, if such
Mortgage or power of attorney has been submitted for recording but has not been
returned from the applicable public recording office, has been lost or is not
otherwise available, a copy of such Mortgage or power of attorney, as the case
may be, certified to be a true and complete copy of the original submitted for
recording; and
(4) for each Mortgage Loan secured by Cooperative Stock, the
originals of the following documents or instruments:
(A) The Cooperative Stock Certificate;
(B) The stock power executed in blank;
(C) The executed Cooperative Lease;
(D) The executed Recognition Agreement;
(E) The executed assignment of Recognition Agreement, if any;
47
(F) The executed UCC-1 financing statement with evidence of
recording thereon; and
(G) Executed UCC-3 financing statements or other appropriate UCC
financing statements required by state law, evidencing a complete and
unbroken line from the mortgagee to the Trustee with evidence of
recording thereon (or in a form suitable for recordation).
With respect to each Mortgage Loan, as promptly as practicable subsequent
to such transfer and assignment, the Master Servicer shall (except for any
Mortgage which has been recorded in the name of MERS or its designee) enforce
the obligations of the related Servicer pursuant to the related Servicing
Agreement to (I) cause each Assignment of Mortgage to be in proper form for
recording in the appropriate public office for real property records within the
time period required in the applicable Servicing Agreement and (II) at the
Depositor's expense, cause to be delivered for recording in the appropriate
public office for real property records the Assignments of the Mortgages to the
Trustee, except that, with respect to any Assignment of a Mortgage as to which
the related Servicer has not received the information required to prepare such
assignment in recordable form, such Servicer's obligation to do so and to
deliver the same for such recording shall be as soon as practicable after
receipt of such information and in accordance with the applicable Servicing
Agreement.
No recording of an Assignment of Mortgage will be required in a state if
either (i) the Depositor furnishes to the Trustee and the Securities
Administrator an unqualified Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the
Trustee and the Securities Administrator to the effect that recordation of such
assignment is not necessary under applicable state law to preserve the Trustee's
interest in the related Mortgage Loan against the claim of any subsequent
transferee of such Mortgage Loan or any successor to, or creditor of, the
Depositor or the originator of such Mortgage Loan or (ii) the recordation of an
Assignment of Mortgage in such state is not required by either Rating Agency in
order to obtain the initial ratings on the Certificates on the Closing Date.
Exhibit J attached hereto sets forth the list of all states where recordation is
required by any Rating Agency to obtain the initial ratings of the Certificates.
The Securities Administrator and the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in
relying upon the information contained in such Exhibit J.
In the case of Mortgage Loans that have been prepaid in full as of the
Closing Date, the Depositor, in lieu of delivering the above documents to the
Trustee, or a Custodian on the Trustee's behalf, will cause the applicable
Servicer to remit to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Master Servicer
Custodial Account the portion of such payment that is required to be deposited
in the such account pursuant to Section 3.09.
Section 2.02 Acceptance by the Trustee or Custodian of the Mortgage Loans.
Subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, the Trustee declares
that it, or a Custodian as its agent, will hold the documents referred to in
Section 2.01 and the other documents delivered to it or a Custodian as its
agent, as the case may be, constituting the Mortgage Files, and that it will
hold such other assets as are included in the Trust Estate delivered to it, in
trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future
48
Certificateholders. Upon execution and delivery of this document, the Trustee
shall deliver or cause a Custodian to deliver to the Depositor and the Master
Servicer a certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit K (the "Initial
Certification") to the effect that, except as may be specified in a list of
exceptions attached thereto, such Person has received the original Mortgage Note
relating to each of the Mortgage Loans listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule.
Within 90 days after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall review, or cause a Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, to review,
the Mortgage Files in such Person's possession, and shall deliver to the
Depositor and the Master Servicer a certification in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit L (the "Final Certification") to the effect that, as to each Mortgage
Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, except as may be specified in a list
of exceptions attached to such Final Certification, such Mortgage File contains
all of the items required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(b). In
performing any such review, the Trustee or a Custodian, as the case may be, may
conclusively rely on the purported genuineness of any such document and any
signature thereon.
If, in the course of such review, a Custodian finds any document
constituting a part of a Mortgage File which does not meet the requirements of
Section 2.01 or is omitted from such Mortgage File or if the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Trustee, a Custodian or the Securities Administrator
discovers a breach by a Servicer, the Sponsor or the Depositor of any
representation, warranty or covenant under the Servicing Agreements, the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Agreement, as the case may be, in
respect of any Mortgage Loan and such breach materially adversely affects the
interest of the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan (provided that
any such breach that causes the Mortgage Loan not to be a "qualified mortgage"
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code shall be deemed to
materially and adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders), then
such party shall promptly so notify the Master Servicer, the Sponsor or such
Servicer, as applicable, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee and the
Depositor of such failure to meet the requirements of Section 2.01 or of such
breach and request that the applicable Servicer, the Sponsor or the Depositor,
as applicable, deliver such missing documentation or cure such defect or breach
within 90 days of its discovery or its receipt of notice of any such failure to
meet the requirements of Section 2.01 or of such breach. If the Trustee receives
written notice that the Depositor, the Sponsor or the applicable Servicer, as
the case may be, has not delivered such missing document or cured such defect or
breach in all material respects during such period, the Trustee, on behalf of
the Trust, shall enforce the applicable Servicer's, the Sponsor's or the
Depositor's obligation, as the case may be, under the applicable Servicing
Agreement, the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Agreement, as the case
may be, and cause the applicable Servicer, the Sponsor or the Depositor, as the
case may be, to either (a) other than in the case of WaMu, substitute for the
related Mortgage Loan a Substitute Mortgage Loan, which substitution shall be
accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth below or (b)
purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust at the Purchase Price for such
Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall such a substitution
occur more than two years from the Closing Date; provided, further, that such
substitution or repurchase must occur within 90 days of when such defect was
discovered if such defect will cause the Mortgage Loan not to be a "qualified
mortgage" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code.
49
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no substitution
pursuant to this Section 2.02 shall be made more than 90 days after the Closing
Date unless the Depositor delivers to the Securities Administrator an Opinion of
Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be at the expense of any of the
Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Trust Estate, addressed to the
Trustee and the Securities Administrator, to the effect that such substitution
will not (i) result in the imposition of the tax on "prohibited transactions" on
any REMIC created hereunder or contributions after the Start-up Day, as defined
in Sections 860F(a)(2) and 860G(d) of the Code, respectively or (ii) cause any
REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding.
It is understood that the scope of the Trustee's review (or a Custodian's
review on its behalf) of the Mortgage Files is limited solely to confirming that
the documents listed in Section 2.01 have been received and further confirming
that any and all documents delivered pursuant to Section 2.01 appear on their
face to have been executed and relate to the applicable Mortgage Loans
identified in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule based solely upon the review of
items (i) and (xi) in the definition of Mortgage Loan Schedule. Neither the
Trustee nor any Custodian shall have any responsibility for determining whether
any document is valid and binding, whether the text of any assignment or
endorsement is in proper or recordable form, whether any document has been
recorded in accordance with the requirements of any applicable jurisdiction, or
whether a blanket assignment is permitted in any applicable jurisdiction.
If the Trustee receives written notice from the Depositor, the Master
Servicer or the Securities Administrator of a breach of any representation or
warranty of a related Servicer or the Sponsor, the Trustee, on behalf of the
Trust, shall enforce the rights of the Trust under the Servicing Agreements, the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement for the benefit of the
Certificateholders. If the Trustee receives written notice from the Depositor,
the Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator of a breach of the
representations or warranties with respect to a Mortgage Loan set forth in a
Servicing Agreement, the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall enforce the
right of the Trust to be indemnified for such breach of representation or
warranty. In addition, if the Trustee receives written notice from the
Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator of a breach of a
representation with respect to a Mortgage Loan set forth in clauses (k) or (o)
of paragraph 3 or clauses (f) and (oo) of paragraph 4 of the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement that occurs as a result of a violation of an applicable
predatory or abusive lending law, the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall
enforce the right of the Trust to reimbursement by the Sponsor for all costs or
damages incurred by the Trust as a result of the violation of such law (such
amount, the "Reimbursement Amount"), but in the case of a breach of a
representation set forth in clauses (k) or (o) of paragraph 3 of the Mortgage
Loan Purchase Agreement, only to the extent the applicable Servicer does not so
reimburse the Trust. It is understood and agreed that, except for any
indemnification provided in the Servicing Agreements and the payment of any
Reimbursement Amount, the obligation of a Servicer, the Sponsor or the Depositor
to cure or to repurchase (or, other than in the case of WaMu to substitute for)
any Mortgage Loan as to which a document is missing, a material defect in a
constituent document exists or as to which such a breach has occurred and is
continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against a Servicer, the Sponsor or
the Depositor in respect of such omission, defect or breach available to the
Trustee on behalf of the Trust and the Certificateholders.
50
With respect to the representations and warranties relating to the Mortgage
Loans set forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that are made to the
best of the Sponsor's knowledge or as to which the Sponsor had no knowledge, if
it is discovered by the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee that the
substance of such representation or warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy
materially and adversely affects the interest of the Certificateholders in the
related Mortgage Loan then, notwithstanding the Sponsor's lack of knowledge with
respect to the substance of such representation or warranty being inaccurate at
the time the representation or warranty was made, such inaccuracy shall be
deemed a breach of the applicable representation or warranty.
It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties
relating to the Mortgage Loans set forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to the Trustee or a Custodian on
the Trustee's behalf and shall inure to the benefit of the Certificateholders
notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement or assignment. It is
understood and agreed that the obligations of the Sponsor set forth in this
Section 2.02 to cure, substitute for or repurchase a Mortgage Loan pursuant to
the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement constitute the sole remedies available to
the Certificateholders and to the Trustee on their behalf respecting a breach of
the representations and warranties contained in the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement.
The representations and warranties of each Servicer with respect to the
applicable Mortgage Loans in the related Servicing Agreement, which have been
assigned to the Trustee hereunder, were made as of the date specified in such
Servicing Agreement. To the extent that any fact, condition or event with
respect to a Mortgage Loan constitutes a breach of both (i) a representation or
warranty of a Servicer under the related Servicing Agreement and (ii) a
representation or warranty of the Sponsor under the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement, the only right or remedy of the Trustee or of any Certificateholder
shall be the Trustee's right, on behalf of the Trust, to enforce the obligations
of the applicable Servicer under any applicable representation or warranty made
by it. It is hereby acknowledged that the Sponsor shall have no obligation or
liability with respect to any breach of a representation or warranty made by it
with respect to the Mortgage Loans if the fact, condition or event constituting
such breach also constitutes a breach of a representation or warranty made by
the applicable Servicer in the applicable Servicing Agreement, without regard to
whether such Servicer fulfills its contractual obligations in respect of such
representation or warranty. It is hereby further acknowledged that the Depositor
shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any breach of any
representation or warranty with respect to the Mortgage Loans (except as set
forth in Section 2.04) under any circumstances.
With respect to each Substitute Mortgage Loan the applicable Servicer, the
Sponsor or the Depositor, as the case may be, shall deliver to the Trustee (or a
Custodian on behalf of the Trustee), for the benefit of the Certificateholders,
the documents and agreements 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 in any calendar month after the Determination Date for
such month. Monthly Payments due with respect to any such Substitute Mortgage
Loan in the month of substitution shall not be part of the Trust Estate. For the
month of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will include the
51
Monthly Payment due for such month on any Defective Mortgage Loan for which the
Depositor, the Sponsor or a Servicer has substituted a Substitute Mortgage Loan.
The Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule for the benefit
of the Certificateholders to reflect the removal of each Mortgage Loan that has
become a Defective Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the Substitute Mortgage
Loan or Loans and the Master Servicer shall deliver the amended Mortgage Loan
Schedule to the Securities Administrator, the Trustee and any Custodian. Upon
such substitution of a Mortgage Loan by the Depositor, the Sponsor or a
Servicer, each Substitute Mortgage Loan shall be subject to the terms of this
Agreement in all respects, and the Depositor or the Sponsor, as the case may be,
shall be deemed to have made to the Trustee with respect to such Substitute
Mortgage Loan, as of the date of substitution, the representations and
warranties made pursuant to paragraph 4 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
and the applicable Servicer shall be deemed to have made to the Trustee with
respect to such Substitute Mortgage Loan, as of the date of substitution, the
mortgage loan representations and warranties made pursuant to the applicable
Servicing Agreement. Upon any such substitution and the deposit to the Master
Servicer Custodial Account of any required Substitution Adjustment Amount (as
described in the next paragraph) and receipt by the Trustee of a Request for
Release, the Trustee shall release, or shall direct a Custodian to release, the
Mortgage File relating to such Defective Mortgage Loan to applicable Person and
shall execute and deliver at such Person's direction such instruments of
transfer or assignment prepared by such Person, without recourse, as shall be
necessary to vest title in such Person or its designee to the Trustee's interest
in any Defective Mortgage Loan substituted for pursuant to this Section 2.02.
For any month in which the Depositor, the Sponsor or a Servicer substitutes
one or more Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Defective Mortgage Loans,
the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal balance of all such
Substitute Mortgage Loans substituted by such Person in a Loan Group as of the
date of substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all
such Defective Mortgage Loans in a Loan Group substituted by such Person (after
application of the principal portion of the Monthly Payments due in the month of
substitution) (the "Substitution Adjustment Amount" for such Loan Group) plus an
amount equal to the aggregate of any unreimbursed Advances with respect to such
Defective Mortgage Loans shall be remitted by such Person to the Master Servicer
for deposit to the Master Servicer Custodial Account on or before the 18th day
of the month succeeding the calendar month during which the related Mortgage
Loan is required to be purchased or replaced hereunder.
The Trustee shall retain or shall cause a Custodian to retain, as
applicable, possession and custody of each Mortgage File in accordance with and
subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. The Master Servicer shall
cause to be promptly delivered to the Trustee or a Custodian on behalf of the
Trustee, as the case may be, upon the execution or, in the case of documents
requiring recording, receipt thereof, the originals of such other documents or
instruments constituting the Mortgage File as come into the Master Servicer's
possession from time to time.
Neither the Trustee nor any Custodian shall be under any duty or obligation
(i) to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates
or other papers to determine that they are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate
for the represented purpose or that they are other than what they purport to be
52
on their face or (ii) to determine whether any Mortgage File should include any
of the documents specified in Section 2.01(b)(iv), (vi), (vii), (viii) and (ix).
In connection with making the certifications required hereunder, to the extent a
title search or opinion of counsel has been provided in lieu of a title policy
for any Mortgage Loan, the Trustee or a Custodian on its behalf, as applicable,
shall only be responsible for confirming that a title search or opinion of
counsel has been provided for such Mortgage Loan.
Section 2.03 Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Master
Servicer.
The Master Servicer hereby makes the following representations and
warranties to the Depositor, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee, as of
the Closing Date:
(i) The Master Servicer is a national banking association duly
chartered and validly existing in good standing under the laws of the
United States of America and has all licenses necessary to carry on its
business as now being conducted and is licensed, qualified and in good
standing in each of the states where a Mortgaged Property securing a
Mortgage Loan is located if the laws of such state require licensing or
qualification in order to conduct business of the type conducted by the
Master Servicer. The Master Servicer has power and authority to execute and
deliver this Agreement and to perform in accordance herewith; the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement (including all
instruments of transfer to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement) by the
Master Servicer and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby have been duly and validly authorized. This Agreement, assuming due
authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties hereto,
evidences the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of the Master
Servicer, subject to applicable law except as enforceability may be limited
by (A) bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, receivership, moratorium,
reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of the
rights of creditors and (B) general principles of equity, whether
enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law. All requisite
corporate action has been taken by the Master Servicer to make this
Agreement valid and binding upon the Master Servicer in accordance with its
terms.
(ii) No consent, approval, authorization or order is required for the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement from any court, governmental
agency or body, or federal or state regulatory authority having
jurisdiction over the Master Servicer is required or, if required, such
consent, approval, authorization or order has been or will, prior to the
Closing Date, be obtained.
(iii) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement are in the ordinary course of business of the Master Servicer and
will not result in the breach of any term or provision of the charter or
by-laws of the Master Servicer or result in the breach of any term or
provision of, or conflict with or constitute a default under or result in
the acceleration of any obligation under, any agreement, indenture or loan
or credit agreement or other instrument to which the Master Servicer or its
property is subject, or result in the violation of any law, rule,
regulation, order, judgment or decree to which the Master Servicer or its
property is subject.
53
(iv) There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or,
to the best knowledge of the Master Servicer, threatened against the Master
Servicer which, either individually or in the aggregate, would result in
any material adverse change in the business, operations, financial
condition, properties or assets of the Master Servicer, or in any material
impairment of the right or ability of the Master Servicer to carry on its
business substantially as now conducted 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 the Master Servicer
contemplated herein, or which would materially impair the ability of the
Master Servicer to perform under the terms of this Agreement.
The representations and warranties made pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall
survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to the Trustee or a Custodian
on the Trustee's behalf and shall inure to the benefit of the
Certificateholders.
Section 2.04 Representations and Warranties of the Depositor as to the
Mortgage Loans.
The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee with respect to
the Mortgage Loans or each Mortgage Loan, as the case may be, as of the date
hereof or such other date set forth herein that as of the Closing Date:
(i) Immediately prior to the transfer and assignment contemplated
herein, the Depositor was the sole owner and holder of the Mortgage Loans.
The Mortgage Loans were not assigned or pledged by the Depositor and the
Depositor had good and marketable title thereto, and the Depositor had full
right to transfer and sell the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee free and clear
of any encumbrance, participation interest, lien, equity, pledge, claim or
security interest and had full right and authority subject to no interest
or participation in, or agreement with any other party to sell or otherwise
transfer the Mortgage Loans.
(ii) As of the Closing Date, the Depositor has transferred all right,
title and interest in the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee on behalf of the
Trust.
(iii) As of the Closing Date, the Depositor has not transferred the
Mortgage Loans to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust with any intent to
hinder, delay or defraud any of its creditors.
(iv) Each Mortgage Loan is a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning
of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and Treasury Regulation section 1.860G-2.
It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set
forth in this Section 2.04 shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage
Files to the Trustee or a Custodian on the Trustee's behalf and shall inure to
the benefit of the Certificateholders.
Upon discovery by any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator or the Trustee that any of the representations and warranties set
forth in this Section 2.04 is not accurate (referred to herein as a "breach")
and that such breach materially and adversely affects the interests of the
54
Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such
breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties; provided that a
breach of the representation that each Mortgage Loan is a "qualified mortgage"
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code shall be deemed to
materially and adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders. Within
90 days of its discovery or its receipt of notice of any such breach that
materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in the
related Mortgage Loan, the Depositor shall cure such breach in all material
respects or shall either (i) repurchase the Mortgage Loan or any property
acquired in respect thereof from the Trustee at a price equal to the Purchase
Price or (ii) if within two years of the Closing Date, substitute for such
Mortgage Loan in the manner described in Section 2.02; provided that if the
breach relates to the representation that each Mortgage Loan is a "qualified
mortgage" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such repurchase or
substitution must occur within 90 days from the date the breach was discovered.
The Purchase Price of any repurchase described in this paragraph and the
Substitution Adjustment Amount, if any, shall be remitted to the Master Servicer
for deposit to the Master Servicer Custodial Account. It is understood and
agreed that, except with respect to the second preceding sentence, the
obligation of the Depositor to repurchase or substitute for any Mortgage Loan or
Mortgaged Property as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing
shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to
Certificateholders, or to the Trust and the Trustee on behalf of
Certificateholders, and such obligation shall survive until termination of the
Trust hereunder.
Section 2.05 Designation of Interests in the REMICs.
The Depositor hereby designates the Upper-Tier Regular Interests as
"regular interests" and the UR Interest as the single class of "residual
interest" in the Upper-Tier REMIC for purposes of Code Sections 860G(a)(1) and
860G(a)(2), respectively. The Depositor hereby further designates (i) the
Uncertificated Middle-Tier Regular Interests as classes of "regular interests"

Middle-Tier REMIC for purposes of Code Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860G(a)(2),
respectively and (ii) the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Regular Interests as classes
of "regular interests" and the LR Interest as the single class of "residual
interest" in the Lower-Tier REMIC for purposes of Code Sections 860G(a)(1) and
860G(a)(2), respectively.
Section 2.06 Designation of Start-up Day.
The Closing Date is hereby designated as the "start-up day" of each of the
Upper-Tier REMIC, the Middle-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC within the
meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.
Section 2.07 REMIC Certificate Maturity Date.
Solely for purposes of satisfying Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the
Treasury Regulations, the "latest possible maturity date" of the regular
interests in the Upper-Tier REMIC, the Middle-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier
REMIC is the Distribution Date immediately following the maturity date for the
Mortgage Loan with the latest maturity date.
Section 2.08 Execution and Delivery of Certificates.
55
(a) The Securities Administrator (i) acknowledges the issuance of and
hereby declares that it holds the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Regular Interests on
behalf of the Middle-Tier REMIC and the Certificateholders and that it holds the
Uncertificated Middle-Tier Regular Interests on behalf of the Upper-Tier REMIC
and the Certificateholders and (ii) has executed and delivered to or upon the
order of the Depositor, in exchange for the Mortgage Loans, Uncertificated
Middle-Tier Interests and Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests, together with all
other assets included in the definition of "Trust Estate," receipt of which is

authorized denominations which, together with the Uncertificated Middle-Tier
Interests and the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests, evidence ownership of the
entire Trust Estate.
(b) In addition, the Securities Administrator shall, from time to time as
requested by beneficial owners of Exchangeable REMIC Certificates or
Exchangeable Certificates pursuant to Section 5.10, exchange Exchangeable REMIC
Certificates for Exchangeable Certificates and vice versa.
Section 2.09 Establishment of the Trust.
The Depositor does hereby establish, pursuant to the further provisions of
this Agreement and the laws of the State of New York, an express trust to be
known, for convenience, as "Banc of America Funding 2006-J Trust" and does
hereby appoint U.S. Bank National Association as Trustee in accordance with the

Section 2.10 Purpose and Powers of the Trust.
The purpose of the common law trust, as created hereunder, is to engage in

The trust is hereby authorized to engage in the foregoing activities.
Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall cause the trust to

56
amended, without the consent of the Certificateholders evidencing 51% or more of
the aggregate voting rights of the Certificates.
ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND MASTER SERVICING
OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 3.01 Master Servicing of the Mortgage Loans.
For and on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall
supervise, monitor and oversee the obligations of the Servicers to service and
administer their respective Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of the
applicable Servicing Agreement and shall have full power and authority to do any
and all things which it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such
master servicing and administration. In performing its obligations hereunder,
the Master Servicer shall act in a manner consistent with this Agreement,
subject to the prior sentence, and with Customary Servicing Procedures.
Furthermore, the Master Servicer shall oversee and consult with each Servicer as
necessary from time-to-time to carry out the Master Servicer's obligations
hereunder, shall receive, review and evaluate all reports, information and other
data provided to the Master Servicer by each Servicer and shall cause each
Servicer to perform and observe the covenants, obligations and conditions to be
performed or observed by such Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement.
The Master Servicer shall independently and separately monitor each Servicer's
servicing activities with respect to each related Mortgage Loan, reconcile the
results of such monitoring with such information provided in the previous
sentence on a monthly basis and coordinate corrective adjustments to the
Servicers' and the Master Servicer's records, and based on such reconciled and
corrected information, prepare the Master Servicer's Certificate and any other
information and statements required hereunder. The Master Servicer shall
reconcile the results of its Mortgage Loan monitoring with the actual
remittances of the Servicers to the Master Servicer Custodial Account pursuant
to the applicable Servicing Agreements.
Continuously from the date hereof until the termination of the Trust, the
Master Servicer shall enforce the obligations of the Servicers to collect all
payments due under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans when the same
shall become due and payable to the extent such procedures shall be consistent
with the applicable Servicing Agreement.
The relationship of the Master Servicer (and of any successor to the Master
Servicer as master servicer under this Agreement) to the Trustee and the
Securities Administrator under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be
that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or
agent.
Section 3.02 Monitoring of Servicers.
(a) The Master Servicer shall be responsible for reporting to the Trustee,
the Securities Administrator and the Depositor the compliance by each Servicer
with its duties under the related Servicing Agreement. In the review of each
Servicer's activities, the Master Servicer may rely upon an officer's
certificate of the Servicer with regard to such Servicer's compliance with the
57
terms of its Servicing Agreement. In the event that the Master Servicer, in its
judgment, determines that a Servicer should be terminated in accordance with its
Servicing Agreement, or that a notice should be sent pursuant to such Servicing
Agreement with respect to the occurrence of an event that, unless cured, would
constitute grounds for such termination, the Master Servicer shall notify the
Depositor, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee thereof and the Master
Servicer shall issue such notice or take such other action as it deems
appropriate.
(b) The Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Trust and the
Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Servicer under the
related Servicing Agreement, and shall, in the event that a Servicer fails to
perform its obligations in accordance with the related Servicing Agreement,
subject to the preceding paragraph, terminate the rights and obligations of such
Servicer thereunder and act as successor Servicer of the related Mortgage Loans
under the applicable Servicing Agreement or cause the Trustee to enter into a
new Servicing Agreement with a successor Servicer selected by the Master
Servicer (except, in the case of the Xxxxx Fargo Servicing Agreement, the
Trustee shall select the successor Servicer); provided, however, it is
understood and acknowledged by the parties hereto that there will be a period of
transition (not to exceed 90 days) before the actual servicing functions can be
fully transferred to such successor Servicer. Such enforcement, including,
without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Servicing
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 Master Servicer, in
its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related
Mortgage Loans. The Master 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 whom such enforcement is directed, provided that the Master Servicer and
the Trustee, as applicable, shall not be required to prosecute or defend any
legal action except to the extent that the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as
applicable, shall have received reasonable indemnity for its costs and expenses
in pursuing such action.
(c) To the extent that the costs and expenses of the Master Servicer or the
Trustee, as applicable, related to any termination of a Servicer, appointment of
a successor Servicer or the transfer and assumption of servicing by the Master
Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, with respect to any Servicing Agreement
(including, without limitation, (i) all legal costs and expenses and all due
diligence costs and expenses associated with an evaluation of the potential
termination of the Servicer as a result of an event of default by such Servicer
under the related Servicing Agreement and (ii) all costs and expenses associated
with the complete transfer of servicing, including all servicing files and all
servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing
data as may be required by the successor Servicer to correct any errors or
insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the successor
Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the related Servicing
Agreement) are not fully and timely reimbursed by the terminated Servicer, the
Master Servicer (except in the case of the termination of Xxxxx Fargo as a
Servicer) or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement of
such costs and expenses from the Master Servicer Custodial Account; provided
that if such servicing transfer costs are ultimately reimbursed by the
terminated Servicer, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable,
shall remit such amounts that are reimbursed by the terminated Servicer to the
Master Servicer Custodial Account.
58
(d) The Master Servicer shall require each Servicer to comply with the
remittance requirements and other obligations set forth in the related Servicing
Agreement.
(e) If the Master Servicer acts as Servicer, it will not assume liability
for the representations and warranties of the Servicer, if any, that it
replaces.
(f) Subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 3.02(f), the Master
Servicer is permitted to utilize one or more Subcontractors to perform certain
of its obligations hereunder. The Master Servicer shall promptly upon request
provide to the Depositor a written description (in form and substance
satisfactory to the Depositor) of the role and function of each Subcontractor
utilized by the Master Servicer, specifying (i) the identity of each such
Subcontractor that is a Servicing Function Participant and (ii) which elements
of the Servicing Criteria will be addressed in Assessments of Compliance
provided by each Servicing Function Participant. As a condition to the
utilization by the Master Servicer of any Servicing Function Participant, the
Master Servicer shall cause any such Servicing Function Participant for the
benefit of the Depositor to comply with the provisions of Section 3.21 of this
Agreement to the same extent as if such Servicing Function Participant were the
Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall be responsible for obtaining from
each such Servicing Function Participant and delivering to the applicable
Persons any Assessment of Compliance and related Attestation Report required to
be delivered by such Servicing Function Participant under Section 3.21, in each
case as and when required to be delivered. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
Master Servicer engages a Subcontractor in connection with the performance of
any of its duties under this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be responsible
for determining whether such Subcontractor is an Additional Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall indemnify the Depositor, the Sponsor, the
Trustee, the Custodian and the Securities Administrator and any of their
directors, officers, employees or agents 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 a breach of the
Master Servicer's obligation set forth in the preceding paragraph or the failure
of the Master Servicer to perform any of its obligations under this Section
3.02(f), Section 3.20, Section 3.21 or Section 3.22.
Section 3.03 Fidelity Bond; Errors and Omissions Insurance.
The Master Servicer shall maintain, at its own expense, a blanket fidelity
bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, with broad coverage on all
officers, employees or other persons involved in the performance of its
obligations as Master Servicer hereunder. These policies must insure the Master
Servicer against losses resulting from dishonest or fraudulent acts committed by
the Master Servicer's personnel, any employees of outside firms that provide
data processing services for the Master Servicer, and temporary contract
employees or student interns. No provision of this Section 3.03 requiring such
fidelity bond and errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the
Master Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement.
The minimum coverage under any such bond and insurance policy shall be at least
equal to the corresponding amounts required by Xxxxxx Mae in the Xxxxxx Xxx
Servicing Guide or by Xxxxxxx Mac in the Xxxxxxx Xxx Xxxxxxx' & Servicers'
Guide, as amended or restated from time to time, or in an amount as may be
59
permitted to the Master Servicer by express waiver of Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac.
In the event that any such policy or bond ceases to be in effect, the Master
Servicer shall obtain a comparable replacement policy or bond from an insurer or
issuer, meeting the requirements set forth above as of the date of such
replacement.
Section 3.04 Access to Certain Documentation.
The Master Servicer shall provide, and the Master Servicer shall cause each
Servicer to provide in accordance with the related Servicing Agreement, to the
OCC, the OTS, the FDIC and to comparable regulatory authorities supervising
Holders of Certificates and the examiners and supervisory agents of the OCC, the
OTS, the FDIC and such other authorities, access to the documentation required
by applicable regulations of the OCC, the OTS, the FDIC and such other
authorities with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Such access shall be afforded
without charge, but only upon reasonable and prior written request and during
normal business hours at the offices designated by the Master Servicer and the
related Servicer. In fulfilling such request for access, the Master Servicer
shall not be responsible to determine the sufficiency of any information
provided by such Servicer. Nothing in this Section 3.04 shall limit the
obligation of the Master Servicer and the related Servicer to observe any
applicable law and the failure of the Master Servicer or the related Servicer to
provide access as provided in this Section 3.04 as a result of such obligation
shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.04.
Section 3.05 Maintenance of Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy; Claims.
(a) The Master Servicer shall not take, or permit any Servicer (to the
extent such action is prohibited under the applicable Servicing Agreement) to
take, any action that would result in noncoverage under any applicable Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Master
Servicer or such Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. The Master
Servicer shall use its best reasonable efforts to cause each Servicer (to the
extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to keep in force and
effect (to the extent that the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to maintain
such insurance), primary mortgage insurance applicable to each Mortgage Loan in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing
Agreement, as applicable. The Master Servicer shall not, and shall not permit
any Servicer (to the extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to,
cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy that is in
effect at the date of the initial issuance of the Mortgage Note and is required
to be kept in force hereunder except in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable.
(b) The Master Servicer agrees to present, or to cause each Servicer (to
the extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to present, on behalf
of the Trust, the Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims to the insurer
under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies and, in this regard, to take such
reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Pursuant to
Sections 3.08 and 3.09, any amounts collected by the Master Servicer or any
Servicer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the
Master Servicer Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section
3.11.
60
Section 3.06 Rights of the Depositor, the Securities Administrator and the
Trustee in Respect of the Master Servicer.
The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the
Master Servicer hereunder and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a
designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master Servicer hereunder
and in connection with any such defaulted obligation to exercise the related
rights of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided that the Master Servicer shall
not be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder by virtue of such
performance by the Depositor or its designee. None of the Securities
Administrator, the Trustee or the Depositor shall have any responsibility or
liability for any action or failure to act by the Master Servicer and the
Securities Administrator, the Trustee or the Depositor shall not be obligated to
supervise the performance of the Master Servicer hereunder or otherwise.
Section 3.07 Trustee to Act as Master Servicer.
(a) In the event the Master Servicer or any successor master servicer shall
for any reason no longer be the Master Servicer hereunder (including by reason
of an Event of Default), the Trustee as trustee hereunder shall within 90 days
of such time, assume, if it so elects, or shall appoint a successor Master
Servicer to assume, all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer
hereunder arising thereafter. Any such assumption shall be subject to Sections
7.02 and 8.05.
(b) The predecessor Master Servicer at its expense shall, upon request of
the Trustee, deliver to the assuming party all master servicing documents and
records and an accounting of amounts collected or held by the Master Servicer,
and shall transfer control of the Master Servicer Custodial Account and any
investment accounts to the successor Master Servicer, and otherwise use its best
efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of its rights and duties as
Master Servicer hereunder to the assuming party. The Trustee shall be entitled
to be reimbursed from the predecessor Master Servicer (or the Trust if the
predecessor Master Servicer is unable to fulfill such obligations) for all
Master Servicing Transfer Costs.
Section 3.08 Servicer Custodial Accounts and Escrow Accounts.
(a) The Master Servicer shall enforce the obligation of each Servicer to
establish and maintain a Servicer Custodial Account in accordance with the
applicable Servicing Agreement, with records to be kept with respect thereto on
a loan by loan basis, into which accounts shall be deposited within 48 hours (or
as of such other time specified in the related Servicing Agreement) of receipt
all collections of principal and interest on any Mortgage Loan and all
collections with respect to any REO Property received by a Servicer, including
Principal Prepayments, Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, Recoveries and
Advances made from the Servicer's own funds (less servicing compensation as
permitted by the applicable Servicing Agreement in the case of any Servicer) and
all other amounts to be deposited in the Servicer Custodial Account. The Master
Servicer is hereby authorized to make withdrawals from and deposits to the
related Servicer Custodial Account for purposes required or permitted by this
Agreement.

to establish and maintain a Buy-Down Account in accordance with the applicable

deposited within 48 hours (or as of such other time specified in the related
Servicing Agreement) of receipt thereof. The Master Servicer is hereby
authorized to make withdrawals from and deposits to the related Buy-Down Account
for purposes required or permitted by this Agreement. In addition, the Master
Servicer shall enforce the obligation of each Servicer to withdraw from the
Buy-Down Account and deposit in immediately available funds in the Servicer
Custodial Account an amount which, when added to such Mortgagor's payment, will
equal the full monthly payment due under the related Mortgage Note.
(c) To the extent required by the related Servicing Agreement and by the
related Mortgage Note and not violative of current law, the Master Servicer
shall enforce the obligation of each Servicer to establish and maintain one or
more escrow accounts (for each Servicer, collectively, the "Escrow Account") and
deposit and retain therein all collections from the Mortgagors (or Advances by
such Servicer) for the payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums
or comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors. Nothing herein shall
require the Master Servicer to compel a Servicer to establish an Escrow Account
in violation of applicable law.
Section 3.09 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments; Master Servicer
Custodial Account and Certificate Account.
(a) Continuously from the date hereof until the principal and interest on
all Mortgage Loans are paid in full, the Master Servicer shall enforce the
obligations of the Servicers to collect all payments due under the terms and
provisions of the Mortgage Loans when the same shall become due and payable to
the extent such procedures shall be consistent with the applicable Servicing
Agreement.
(b) The Securities Administrator shall establish and maintain the
Certificate Account, which shall be deemed to consist of ten sub-accounts and

promptly upon receipt, deposit in the Master Servicer Custodial Account and
retain therein any amounts which are required to be deposited in the Master
Servicer Custodial Account by the Master Servicer.

otherwise specifically provided herein), the Master Servicer shall deposit or
cause to be deposited in the Master Servicer Custodial Account the following

If the Master Servicer shall deposit any amount not required to be deposited, it
may at any time withdraw such amount from the Master Servicer Custodial Account,
any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. All funds required to be

maintained shall invest the funds therein as directed in writing by the Master
Servicer in Permitted Investments, which shall mature not later than the

Investment is an obligation of the institution that maintains such account, then
63
such Permitted Investment shall mature not later than such Distribution Date)
and, in each case, shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All
such Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Certificateholders. All Master Servicer Custodial Account
Reinvestment Income shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as its
master servicing compensation and shall be remitted to the Master Servicer

Trustee) for unreimbursed Advances made pursuant to the related Servicing
Agreement (or in the case of itself or the Trustee, pursuant to Section

to this clause (iii) being limited first to amounts received on the
Mortgage Loans serviced by such Servicer in the related Loan Group in
respect of which any such Advance was made and then limited to amounts
received on all the Mortgage Loans serviced by such Servicer (or, if
applicable, itself or the Trustee) in respect of which any such Advance was
made;
(iv) to reimburse the Servicers (or, if applicable, itself or the
Trustee) for any Nonrecoverable Advance previously made, such right of
reimbursement pursuant to this clause (iv) being limited first to amounts

If the Master Servicer shall remit to the Securities Administrator any amount
not required to be remitted, it may at any time direct the Securities
Administrator to withdraw such amount from the Certificate Account, any
provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Such direction may be
accomplished by delivering an Officer's Certificate to the Securities
Administrator which describes the amounts remitted in error to the Securities
Administrator for deposit to the Certificate Account.
(b) On each Distribution Date, funds on deposit in the Certificate Account
and deemed to be on deposit in the Upper-Tier Certificate Sub-Account shall be

(a) For each Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall enforce any
obligation of the Servicers under the related Servicing Agreements to maintain
or cause to be maintained fire, flood and hazard insurance with extended
coverage customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in
accordance with the related Servicing Agreements. It is understood and agreed
that such insurance provided for in this Section 3.12 shall be with insurers
meeting the eligibility requirements set forth in the applicable Servicing
Agreement and that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required
of any Mortgagor or to be maintained on property acquired in respect of a
defaulted loan, other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as
shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance.
(b) Pursuant to Sections 3.08 and 3.09, any amounts collected by the Master
Servicer, or by any Servicer, under any insurance policies (other than amounts
to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the
related Mortgage or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the applicable
Servicing Agreement) shall be deposited into the Master Servicer Custodial
Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Sections 3.09 and 3.11. Any cost
incurred by the Master Servicer or any Servicer in maintaining any such
insurance if the Mortgagor defaults in its obligation to do so shall be added to
the amount owing under the Mortgage Loan where the terms of the Mortgage Loan so
permit; provided, however, that the addition of any such cost shall not be taken
into account for purposes of calculating the distributions to be made to
Certificateholders and shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer or such
Servicer pursuant to Sections 3.08 and 3.09.
Section 3.13 Presentment of Claims and Collection of Proceeds.
66
The Master Servicer shall (to the extent provided in the applicable
Servicing Agreement) cause the related Servicer to prepare and present on behalf
of the Trust and the Certificateholders all claims under the Insurance Policies
and take such actions (including the negotiation, settlement, compromise or
enforcement of the insured's claim) as shall be necessary to realize recovery
under such policies. Any proceeds disbursed to the Master Servicer (or disbursed
to a Servicer and remitted to the Master Servicer) in respect of such policies,
bonds or contracts shall be promptly deposited in the Master Servicer Custodial
Account upon receipt, except that any amounts realized that are to be applied to
the repair or restoration of the related Mortgaged Property as a condition
precedent to the presentation of claims on the related Mortgage Loan to the
insurer under any applicable Insurance Policy need not be so deposited (or
remitted).
Section 3.14 Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.
To the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement and to the
extent Mortgage Loans contain enforceable due-on-sale clauses, the Master
Servicer shall cause the Servicers to enforce such clauses in accordance with
the applicable Servicing Agreement. If applicable law prohibits the enforcement
of a due-on-sale clause or such clause is otherwise not enforced in accordance
with the applicable Servicing Agreement, and, as a consequence, a Mortgage Loan
is assumed, the original Mortgagor may be released from liability in accordance
with the applicable Servicing Agreement.
Section 3.15 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans; REO Property.
(a) The Master Servicer shall cause each Servicer (to the extent required
under the related Servicing Agreement) to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably
convert the ownership of Mortgaged 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, all in
accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement.
(b) With respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale shall
be taken in the name of the Trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders, or
its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders. The Master Servicer shall
enforce the obligation of the Servicers, to the extent provided in the
applicable Servicing Agreement, to (i) cause the name of the Trust to be placed
on the title to such REO Property and (ii) ensure that the title to such REO
Property references this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall, to the extent
provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, cause the applicable Servicer to
sell any REO Property as expeditiously as possible and in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable.
Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall
cause the applicable Servicer to protect and conserve such REO Property in the
manner and to the extent required by the applicable Servicing Agreement, subject
to the REMIC Provisions. In the event that the Trust Estate acquires any
67
Mortgaged Property as aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or
imminent default on a Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall enforce the
obligation of the related Servicer to dispose of such Mortgaged Property within
the time period specified in the applicable Servicing Agreement, but in any
event within three years after the acquisition by the Servicer for the Trust
(such period, the "REO Disposition Period") unless (i) the Servicer provides to
the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that the holding by the Trust of such Mortgaged Property
subsequent to three years after its acquisition will not result in the
imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of the Trust as defined in
Section 860F of the Code or under the law of any state in which real property
securing a Mortgage Loan owned by the Trust is located or cause any REMIC
created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes
or for state tax purposes under the laws of any state in which real property
securing a Mortgage Loan owned by the Trust is located at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding or (ii) the Servicer shall have applied for and
received an extension of such period from the Internal Revenue Service, in which
case the Trust Estate may continue to hold such Mortgaged Property for the
period of such extension.
(c) The Master Servicer shall, to the extent required by the related
Servicing Agreement, cause the applicable Servicer to deposit all funds
collected and received in connection with the operation of any REO Property in
the Servicer Custodial Account.
(d) The applicable Servicer, upon the final disposition of any REO
Property, shall be entitled to reimbursement for any related unreimbursed
Advances and other unreimbursed advances as well as any unpaid Servicing Fees
from Liquidation Proceeds received in connection with the final disposition of
such REO Property; provided that any such unreimbursed Advances as well as any
unpaid Servicing Fees may be reimbursed or paid, as the case may be, prior to
final disposition, out of any net rental income or other net amounts derived
from such REO Property.
(e) The Liquidation Proceeds from the final disposition of the REO
Property, net of any payment to the applicable Servicer as provided above shall
be deposited in the related Servicer Custodial Account on or prior to the
Determination Date in the month following receipt thereof and be remitted by

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Master Servicer
shall not permit any Mortgaged Property acquired by the Trust to be rented (or
allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used for the production of income
by or on behalf of the Trust in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that
would (i) cause such Mortgaged Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure
property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code, (ii) result in
the receipt by any REMIC created hereunder of any "income from non-permitted
assets" within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code or any "net
income from foreclosure property" which is subject to taxation under the REMIC
Provisions or (iii) subject any REMIC created hereunder to the imposition of any
federal, state or local income taxes on the income earned from such Mortgaged
Property under Section 860G(c) of the Code or otherwise, unless the Master
Servicer or related Servicer, as applicable, has agreed to indemnify and hold
harmless the Trust with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Master Servicer
and the Securities Administrator, as applicable, shall comply with all federal
withholding requirements with respect to payments to Certificateholders of
interest or original issue discount that the Master Servicer or the Securities
Administrator reasonably believes are applicable under the Code. The consent of
Certificateholders shall not be required for any such withholding. Without
limiting the foregoing, the Securities Administrator agrees that it will not
withhold with respect to payments of interest or original issue discount in the
68
case of a Certificateholder that has furnished or caused to be furnished an
effective Form W-8 or an acceptable substitute form or a successor form and who
is not a "10 percent shareholder" within the meaning of Code Section
871(h)(3)(B) or a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Code Section
881(c)(3)(C) with respect to the Trust or the Depositor. In the event the
Securities Administrator withholds any amount from interest or original issue
discount payments or advances thereof to any Certificateholder pursuant to
federal withholding requirements, the Securities Administrator shall indicate
the amount withheld to such Certificateholder.
Section 3.16 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.
Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Master
Servicer or the related Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be
escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer or the
related Servicer will immediately notify the Trustee (or, at the direction of
the Trustee, a Custodian) by delivering, or causing to be delivered, two copies
(one of which will be returned to the related Servicer with the Mortgage File)
of a Request for Release (which may be delivered in an electronic format
acceptable to the Trustee and the Master Servicer or the related Servicer). Upon
receipt of such request, the Trustee or a Custodian, as applicable, shall within
seven (7) Business Days release the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer
or the related Servicer. The Trustee shall at the Master Servicer's or the
related Servicer's direction execute and deliver to the Master Servicer or the
related Servicer the request for reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or release
or satisfaction of mortgage or such instrument releasing the lien of the
Mortgage relating to the Mortgage Loan, in each case provided by the Master
Servicer or the related Servicer, together with the Mortgage Note with written
evidence of cancellation thereon. If the Mortgage has been recorded in the name
of MERS or its designee, the Master Servicer shall enforce the applicable
Servicer's obligation under the related Servicing Agreement take all necessary
action to reflect the release of the Mortgage on the records of MERS. Expenses
incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of
reconveyance shall be chargeable to the related Mortgagor of the Mortgage Loan.
From time to time and as shall be appropriate for the servicing or
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including for such purpose collection under
any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, any policy of flood insurance, any
fidelity bond or errors or omissions policy, or for the purposes of effecting a
partial release of any Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage or the
making of any corrections to the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or any of the
other documents included in the Mortgage File, the Trustee or a Custodian, as
applicable, shall, upon delivery to the Trustee (or, at the direction of the
Trustee, a Custodian) of a Request for Release signed by a Master Servicing
Officer or a Servicing Officer, release the Mortgage File within seven (7)
Business Days to the Master Servicer or the related Servicer. Subject to the
further limitations set forth below, the Master Servicer or the applicable
Servicer shall cause the Mortgage Files so released to be returned to the
Trustee or a Custodian, as applicable, when the need therefor no longer exists,
unless the Mortgage Loan is liquidated and the proceeds thereof are deposited in
the related Servicer Custodial Account, in which case such Servicer shall
deliver to the Trustee or a Custodian, as applicable, a Request for Release,
signed by a Servicing Officer.
69
If the Master Servicer or any related Servicer at any time seeks to
initiate a foreclosure proceeding in respect of any Mortgaged Property as
authorized by this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer or
any related Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee, for
signature, as appropriate, any court pleadings, requests for trustee's sale or
other documents necessary to effectuate such foreclosure or any legal action
brought to obtain judgment against the Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or the
Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment or to enforce any other remedies or
rights provided by the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or otherwise available at
law or in equity.
Section 3.17 Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of the Master
Servicer to be Held for the Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Master Servicer
shall cause each Servicer to transmit to the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf
of the Trustee) as required by this Agreement and the Servicing Agreements all
documents and instruments in respect of a Mortgage Loan coming into the
possession of the Servicer from time to time and shall account fully to the
Trustee for any funds received by the Master Servicer or the related Servicer or
which otherwise are collected by the Master Servicer or the related Servicer as
Liquidation Proceeds, Recoveries or Insurance Proceeds in respect of any
Mortgage Loan. All Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the
control of, the Master Servicer or the related 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 the Master Servicer Custodial Account or any Servicer Custodial Account,
shall be held by the Master Servicer or the related Servicer for and on behalf
of the Trustee and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the
Trustee on behalf of the Trust, subject to the applicable provisions of this
Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer also agrees
that it shall not, and shall enforce any requirement under the related Servicing
Agreement that the related Servicer shall not, knowingly create, incur or
subject any Mortgage File or any funds that are deposited in any Master Servicer
Custodial Account, any Servicer Custodial Account, the Certificate 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
created by the Master Servicer or Servicer, 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
Master Servicer shall be entitled to set off against and deduct from any such
funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to the Master Servicer under
this Agreement.
Section 3.18 Master Servicer Compensation.
As compensation for its services hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be
entitled to the Master Servicer Custodial Account Reinvestment Income. The
Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in
connection with its master servicing activities hereunder and shall not be
entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided in this
Agreement.
Section 3.19 Advances.
70
The Master Servicer shall enforce the obligations of each Servicer to make
a Periodic Advance in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement. A
Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the applicable Servicer
Custodial Account for all Advances of its own funds made pursuant to the related
Servicing Agreement. Based upon information set forth in the servicer reports,
the Master Servicer shall inform the Securities Administrator of the amount of
the Periodic Advance to be made by a Servicer no later than the related
Remittance Date. If a Servicer fails to make any required Periodic Advance
pursuant to the related Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall (i)
unless the Master Servicer determines that such Periodic Advance would not be
recoverable in its good faith business judgment, make such Periodic Advance not
later than the Business Day preceding the related Distribution Date and (ii) to
the extent such failure leads to the termination of the Servicer and until such
time as a successor Servicer is appointed, continue to make Periodic Advances
required pursuant to the related Servicing Agreement for any Distribution Date,
within the same time frame set forth in (i) above, unless the Master Servicer
determines (to the extent provided in the related Servicing Agreement) that such
Periodic Advance would not be recoverable. If the Master Servicer is unable to
make a Periodic Advance required to be made by it in accordance with this
Section 3.19, the Master Servicer shall immediately, and in no event later than
5:00 P.M. New York time on the last Business Day preceding the related
Distribution Date, give written notice thereof to the Trustee, the Securities
Administrator and the Depositor.
Section 3.20 Annual Statement as to Compliance.
(a) Each of the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator shall
deliver, and shall cause any Additional Servicer engaged by it to deliver, or
otherwise make available to the Depositor and the Securities Administrator (and
the Securities Administrator will forward to the Trustee and each Rating
Agency), no later than March 15th of each calendar year beginning in 2007, an
Officer's Certificate (each, together with such similar certificate delivered by
each Servicer as described in Section 3.20(b), a "Compliance Statement"), signed
by an officer of such party, stating, as to the signer thereof, that (a) a
review of the activities of such party during the preceding calendar year or
portion thereof and of performance of such party under this Agreement or such
applicable agreement in case of an Additional Servicer has been made under such
officers' supervision and (b) to the best of such officer's knowledge, based on
such review, such party has fulfilled all of its obligations under this
Agreement or such applicable agreement in case of an Additional Servicer 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 officer and the nature and status thereof. Such Compliance
Statements shall contain no restrictions or limitations on their use. The
obligations of the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator under this
Section apply to each entity that acted as Master Servicer or Securities
Administrator, as applicable, during the applicable period, whether or not such
entity is acting as Master Servicer or Securities Administrator at the time such
Compliance Statement is required to be delivered.
(b) In the event the Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator is
terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, such party shall
provide, and shall use its reasonable efforts to cause any Additional Servicer
that resigns or is terminated under any applicable servicing agreement to
provide, a Compliance Statement pursuant to this Section 3.20 with respect to
71
the period of time that the Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator was
subject to this Agreement or such applicable agreement in the case of an
Additional Servicer or the period of time that the Additional Servicer was
subject to such other servicing agreement. The Master Servicer shall enforce any
obligation of each Servicer, to the extent set forth in the related Servicing
Agreement, to deliver to the Master Servicer a Compliance Statement within the
time frame set forth in, and in such form and substance as may be required
pursuant to, the related Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall include
such Compliance Statements of the Servicers with its own Compliance Statement to
be submitted pursuant to this Section 3.20.
Section 3.21 Assessments of Compliance and Attestation Reports.
(a) Each of the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the
Custodian, each at its own expense, shall deliver, and shall cause each
Servicing Function Participant engaged by it to deliver, or otherwise make
available to the Depositor and the Securities Administrator on or before March
15th of each calendar year beginning in 2007, a report regarding such party's
assessment of compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria (each, together
with such similar report delivered by each Servicer as described in Section
3.21(c), an "Assessment of Compliance") that contains (i) a statement by such
party of its responsibility for assessing compliance with the Relevant Servicing
Criteria, (ii) a statement that such party used the Relevant Servicing Criteria
to assess compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria, (iii) such party's
assessment of compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria as of and for the
fiscal year covered by the Form 10-K required to be filed pursuant to Section
3.22(c), including, if there has been any material instance of noncompliance
with the Relevant Servicing Criteria, a discussion of each such failure and the
nature and status thereof and (iv) a statement that a registered public
accounting firm has issued an attestation report on such party's assessment of
compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria as of and for such period.
No later than February 1 of each fiscal year for the Trust for which a 10-K
is required to be filed, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and
the Custodian shall each forward to the Depositor and the Securities
Administrator the name of each Servicing Function Participant engaged by it and
what Relevant Servicing Criteria will be addressed in the report on assessment
of compliance prepared by such Servicing Function Participant. When the Master
Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Custodian (or any Servicing
Function Participant engaged by them) submit their assessments to the Depositor
and the Securities Administrator, such parties will also at such time include
the assessment (and attestation pursuant to Section 3.21(b)) of each Servicing
Function Participant engaged by it.
Promptly after receipt of such Assessments of Compliance, the Securities
Administrator shall confirm that the Assessments of Compliance, taken
individually address the Relevant Servicing Criteria for each party as set forth
on Exhibit N and on any similar exhibit set forth in each Servicing Agreement in
respect of each Servicer and notify the Depositor of any exceptions. None of
such parties shall be required to deliver any such Assessments of Compliance
until April 15 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. The Custodian and any Servicing
Function Participant engaged by it shall not be required to deliver or cause the
delivery of such Assessments of Compliance 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 fiscal year.
72
(b) Each of the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the
Custodian, each at its own expense, shall cause, and shall cause each Servicing
Function Participant engaged by it to cause, on or before March 15th of each
calendar year beginning in 2007, a registered public accounting firm (which may
also render other services to the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator,
the Custodian or such other Servicing Function Participants, as the case may be)
and that is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
to furnish a report (each, together with such similar report delivered by each
Servicer as described in Section 3.21(c), an "Attestation Report") to the
Securities Administrator and the Depositor, to the effect that (i) it has
obtained a representation regarding certain matters from the management of such
party, which includes an assertion that such party has complied with the
Relevant Servicing Criteria, and (ii) on the basis of an examination conducted
by such firm in accordance with standards for attestation engagements issued or
adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, it is expressing an
opinion as to whether such party's compliance with the Relevant Servicing
Criteria was fairly stated in all material respects, or it cannot express an
overall opinion regarding such party's assessment of compliance with the
Relevant Servicing Criteria. In the event that an overall opinion cannot be
expressed, such registered public accounting firm shall state in such
Attestation Report why it was unable to express such an opinion. Each such
related Attestation Report shall be made in accordance with Rules 1-02(a)(3) and
2-02(g) of the Commission's Regulation S-X. Such Attestation Reports must be
available for general use and not contain restricted use language. If requested
by the Depositor, such report shall contain or be accompanied by a consent of
such accounting firm to inclusion or incorporation of such report in the
Depositor's registration statement on Form S-3 relating to the Offered
Certificates and the Form 10-K for the Trust.
Promptly after receipt of such Attestation Reports, the Securities
Administrator shall confirm that each Assessment of Compliance is coupled with a
related Attestation Report and shall notify the Depositor of any exceptions.
None of the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or any Servicing
Function Participant engaged by such parties shall be required to deliver or
cause the delivery of such Attestation Reports until April 15 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
fiscal year. The Custodian and any Servicing Function Participant engaged by it
shall not be required to deliver or cause the delivery of such Attestation
Report 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 fiscal year.
(c) The Master Servicer shall enforce any obligation of each Servicer, to
the extent set forth in the related Servicing Agreement, to deliver to the
Master Servicer an Assessment of Compliance and related Attestation Report
within the time frame set forth in, and in such form and substance as may be
required pursuant to, the related Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall
include such Assessments of Compliance and Attestation Reports of the Servicers
with its own Assessment of Compliance and related Attestation Report to be
submitted pursuant to this Section 3.21.
(d) In the event the Master Servicer, the Custodian or the Securities
Administrator is terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of this Agreement,
such party shall provide, and each such party shall cause any Servicing Function
Participant engaged by it to provide, an Assessment of Compliance pursuant to
73
this Section 3.21, coupled with an Attestation Report as required in this
Section 3.21 with respect to the period of time that the Master Servicer or the
Securities Administrator was subject to this Agreement.
Section 3.22 Reports to the Commission.
(a) The Securities Administrator and the Master Servicer shall reasonably
cooperate with the Depositor in connection with the Trust's satisfying its
reporting requirements under the Exchange Act. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the Securities Administrator shall prepare and file on behalf
of the Trust any Form 8-K, Form 10-D and Form 10-K required by the Exchange Act
and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, and the Master
Servicer shall sign such Forms on behalf of the Trust. Notwithstanding the
previous sentence, the Depositor shall file the Form 8-K in connection with the
filing of this Agreement.
(b) Within 15 days after each Distribution Date (subject to permitted
extensions under the Exchange Act), the Securities Administrator 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 Securities Administrator
shall file each Form 10-D with a copy of the Monthly Statement for such
Distribution Date attached thereto. Any disclosure in addition to the Monthly
Statement for such Distribution Date that is required to be included on Form
10-D ("Additional Form 10-D Disclosure") shall be reported by the parties set
forth on Exhibit O hereto to the Depositor and the Securities Administrator and
directed and approved by the Depositor pursuant to the following paragraph, and
the Securities Administrator 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 this Section 3.22(b).
As set forth on Exhibit O hereto, within 5 calendar days after the related
Distribution Date, (i) the parties described on Exhibit O shall be required to
provide to the Securities Administrator (at xxx.xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx
with a copy by facsimile to 410-715-2380) and the Depositor, to the extent known
by a responsible officer thereof, in XXXXX-compatible format, or in such other
format as otherwise agreed upon by the Securities Administrator and such party,
any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, if applicable, together with an Additional
Disclosure Notification in the form of Exhibit S and (ii) the Depositor shall
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 Securities
Administrator shall compile all such information provided to it in a Form 10-D
prepared by it. The Securities Administrator has no duty under this Agreement to
monitor or enforce the performance by the parties listed on Exhibit O of their
duties under this paragraph or proactively solicit or procure from such parties
any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure information. The Depositor will be
responsible for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or incurred by the
Securities Administrator in connection with including any Additional Form 10-D
Disclosure on Form 10-D pursuant to this paragraph.
After preparing the Form 10-D, the Securities Administrator shall, upon
request, forward electronically a copy of the Form 10-D to the Master Servicer
for review and, only if Additional Form 10-D Disclosure is contained therein,
the Securities Administrator shall forward such Form 10-D to the Depositor for
review. Within 2 Business Days after receipt of such copy, the Depositor shall
notify the Securities Administrator in writing (which may be furnished
74
electronically) of any changes to or approval of such Form 10-D. In the absence
of any written changes or approval, the Securities Administrator shall be
entitled to assume that such Form 10-D is in final form and the Securities
Administrator may proceed with the execution and filing of the Form 10-D. A duly
authorized officer of the Master Servicer shall sign each Form 10-D. If a Form
10-D cannot be filed on time or if a previously filed Form 10-D needs to be
amended, the Securities Administrator will follow the procedures set forth in
Section 3.22(h)(ii). Form 10-D 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 represents to the Securities Administrator that the Depositor
has filed all such required reports during the preceding 12 months and that is
has been subject to such filing requirement for the past 90 days. The Depositor
shall notify the Securities Administrator in writing, no later than the fifth
calendar day after the related Distribution Date with respect to the filing of a
report on Form 10-D, if the answer to either question should be "no." The
Securities Administrator shall be entitled to rely on such representations in
preparing, executing and/or filing any such report. Promptly (but no later than
1 Business Day) after filing with the Commission, the Securities Administrator
will make available on its internet website a final executed copy of each Form
10-D prepared and filed by the Securities Administrator. The signing party at
the Master Servicer can be contacted at the address specified in Section 11.05.
Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that the performance by the Master
Servicer and Securities Administrator of their duties under this Section 3.22(b)
related to the timely preparation, arrangement for execution and filing of Form
10-D is contingent upon such parties strictly observing all applicable deadlines
in the performance of their duties under this Section 3.22(b) and also
contingent upon the Servicers, the Custodian and any Servicing Function
Participant strictly observing deadlines no later than those set forth in this
paragraph that are applicable to the parties to this Agreement in the delivery
to the Securities Administrator of any necessary Additional Form 10-D Disclosure
pursuant to the related Servicing Agreements, any custodial agreement or any
other applicable agreement. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Securities
Administrator shall have any liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim
arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare, arrange for
execution and/or timely file such Form 10-D, where such failure results from the
Master Servicer's or the Securities Administrator's inability or failure to
receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party hereto or any
Servicer, Custodian or Servicing Function Participant 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 prior to the 90th day 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") (it being understood that the fiscal year for the Trust ends
on December 31st of each year), commencing in March 2007, the Securities
Administrator 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
Securities Administrator within the applicable time frames set forth in this
Agreement and the related Servicing Agreements:
(i) a Compliance Statement for each Servicer, the Master Servicer and
the Securities Administrator (each, a "Reporting Servicer") as described
under Section 3.20;
75
(ii) (A) the Assessment of Compliance for each Reporting Servicer, as
described under Section 3.21(a) and (c), and (B) if each Reporting
Servicer's Assessment of Compliance identifies any material instance of
noncompliance, disclosure identifying such instance of noncompliance, or if
each Reporting Servicer's Assessment of Compliance 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; provided, however, that the
Securities Administrator, at its discretion, may omit from the Form 10-K
any Assessment of Compliance described in this clause (ii) or Attestation
Report described in clause (iii) below that is not required to be filed
with such Form 10-K pursuant to Regulation AB;
(iii) (A) the Attestation Report for each Reporting Servicer, as
described under Section 3.21(b) and (c), and (B) if any Reporting
Servicer's Attestation Report identifies any material instance of
noncompliance, disclosure identifying such instance of noncompliance, or if
any Reporting Servicer's Attestation Report is not included as an exhibit
to such Form 10-K, disclosure that such Attestation Report is not included
and an explanation why such Attestation Report is not included; and
(iv) a Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification, as described in Section 3.22(e).
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 by the parties set forth on Exhibit P to the Depositor and the
Securities Administrator and directed and approved by the Depositor pursuant to
the following paragraph, and the Securities Administrator 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 this Section 3.22(d).
As set forth on Exhibit P hereto, no later than March 1 of each year that
the Trust is subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements, commencing in
2007, (i) the parties described in Exhibit P shall be required to provide to the
Securities Administrator (at xxx.xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx with a copy by
facsimile to 410-715-2380) and the Depositor, to the extent known by a
responsible officer thereof, in XXXXX-compatible format, or in such other format
as otherwise agreed upon by the Securities Administrator and such party, any
Additional Form 10-K Disclosure, together with an Additional Disclosure
Notification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit S and (ii) the Depositor
shall 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 Securities
Administrator shall compile all such information provided to it in a Form 10-K
prepared by it. The Securities Administrator has no duty under this Agreement to
monitor or enforce the performance by the parties listed on Exhibit P of their
duties under this paragraph or proactively solicit or procure from such parties
any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure information. The Depositor will be
responsible for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or incurred by the
Securities Administrator in connection with including any Additional Form 10-K
Disclosure on Form 10-K pursuant to this paragraph.
After preparing the Form 10-K, the Securities Administrator shall forward
electronically a copy of the Form 10-K to the Master Servicer and Depositor for
review. Within three Business Days after receipt of such copy, the Depositor
shall notify the Securities Administrator in writing (which may be furnished
76
electronically) of any changes to or approval of such Form 10-K. A senior
officer of the Master Servicer in charge of the master servicing function shall
sign the Form 10-K. If a Form 10-K cannot be filed on time or if a previously
filed Form 10-K needs to be amended, the Securities Administrator will follow
the procedures set forth in Section 3.22(h)(ii). 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 represents to the
Securities Administrator that the Depositor has filed all such required reports
during the preceding 12 months and that is has been subject to such filing
requirement for the past 90 days. The Depositor shall notify the Securities
Administrator in writing, no later than March 15th with respect to the filing of
a report on Form 10-K, if the answer to either question should be "no." The

the Master Servicer can be contacted at the address specified in Section 11.05.
The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the performance by the Master
Servicer and the Securities Administrator of its duties under this Section
3.22(c) related to the timely preparation, arrangement for execution and filing

applicable agreement. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Securities
Administrator shall have any liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim
arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare, arrange for
execution and/or timely file such Form 10-K, where such failure results from the
Securities Administrator's inability or failure to receive, on a timely basis,
any information from any other party hereto or any Servicer or Servicing
Function Participant needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form
10-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
(d) Within four (4) Business Days after the occurrence of an event
requiring disclosure on Form 8-K (each such event, a "Reportable Event"), and if
requested by the Depositor, the Securities Administrator 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-Ks 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-Ks filed in connection with the issuance of the
Certificates ("Form 8-K Disclosure Information") shall be reported by the
parties set forth on Exhibit Q hereto to the Depositor and the Securities
Administrator and directed and approved by the Depositor pursuant to the
following paragraph, and the Securities Administrator will have no duty or
liability for any failure hereunder to determine or prepare any Additional Form
8-K Disclosure Information, or any Form 8-K, except as set forth in this Section
3.22(d).
77
As set forth on Exhibit Q hereto, no later than the end of business on the
2nd Business Day after the occurrence of a Reportable Event (i) the parties
described in Exhibit Q shall be required to provide to the Securities
Administrator (at xxx.xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx with a copy by facsimile
to 410-715-2380) and to the Depositor, to the extent known by a responsible
officer thereof, in XXXXX-compatible format, or in such other format as
otherwise agreed upon by the Securities Administrator and such party, any Form
8-K Disclosure Information, if applicable, together with an Additional
Disclosure Notification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit S and (ii) the
Depositor shall approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case
may be, the inclusion of the Form 8-K Disclosure Information. The Securities
Administrator shall compile all such information provided to it in a Form 8-K
prepared by it. The Securities Administrator has no duty under this Agreement to
monitor or enforce the performance by the parties listed on Exhibit Q of their
duties under this paragraph or proactively solicit or procure from such parties
any Form 8-K Disclosure Information. The Depositor will be responsible for any
reasonable fees and expenses assessed or incurred by the Securities
Administrator in connection with including any Form 8-K Disclosure Information
on Form 8-K pursuant to this paragraph.
After preparing the Form 8-K, the Securities Administrator shall forward
electronically a copy of the Form 8-K to the Master Servicer and Depositor for
review. No later than the close of business New York City time on the 3rd
Business Day after the Reportable Event, the Depositor shall notify the

assume that such Form 8-K is in final form and the Securities Administrator may
proceed with the execution and filing of the Form 8-K. A duly authorized officer
of the Master Servicer shall sign the Form 8-K. If a Form 8-K cannot be filed on
time or if a previously filed Form 8-K needs to be amended, the Securities
Administrator will follow the procedures set forth in Section 3.22(h)(ii).
Promptly (but no later than 1 Business Day) after filing with the Commission,
the Securities Administrator will, make available on its internet website a
final executed copy of each Form 8-K prepared and filed by the Securities
Administrator. The signing party at the Master Servicer can be contacted at the
address specified in Section 11.05. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge
that the performance by the Securities Administrator of its duties under this
Section 3.22(d) related to the timely preparation, arrangement for execution and
filing of Form 8-K is contingent upon such parties strictly observing all
applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties under this Section
3.22(d) and also contingent upon the Servicers, the Custodian and any Servicing
Function Participant strictly observing deadlines no later than those set forth
in this paragraph that are applicable to the parties to this Agreement in the
delivery to the Securities Administrator of any necessary Form 8-K Disclosure
Information pursuant to the related Servicing Agreements, any custodial
agreement or any other applicable agreement. Neither the Master Servicer nor the
Securities Administrator shall have any liability for any loss, expense, damage,
claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare, arrange
for execution and/or timely file such Form 8-K, where such failure results from
the Securities Administrator's inability or failure to receive, on a timely
basis, any information from any other party hereto or any Servicer, Custodian or
Servicing Function Participant needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file
such Form 8-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct.
78
(e) Each Form 10-K shall include a certification (the "Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx
Certification"), exactly as set forth in Exhibit M attached hereto, required to
be included therewith pursuant to the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act. The Securities
Administrator (if the Securities Administrator is not the same entity as the
Master Servicer) shall provide, and shall cause any Servicing Function
Participant engaged by it to provide, to the Person who signs the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx
Certification (the "Certifying Person"), by March 15th of each year in which the
Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherwise
within a reasonable period of time upon request, a certification (each, together
with such similar certification delivered by each Servicer as described in
Section 3.22(f), a "Back-up Certification"), in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit R, upon which the Certifying Person, the entity for which the Certifying
Person acts as an officer, and such entity's officers, directors and Affiliates
(collectively with the Certifying Person, "Certification Parties") can
reasonably rely. The senior officer of the Master Servicer in charge of the
master servicing function shall serve as the Certifying Person on behalf of the
Trust. Such officer of the Certifying Person can be contacted by email at
xxx.xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx. In the event the Master Servicer, the
Securities Administrator or any Servicing Function Participant engaged by such
parties is terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or any
applicable sub-servicing agreement, as the case may be, such party shall provide
a Back-up Certification to the Certifying Person pursuant to this Section
3.22(e) with respect to the period of time it was subject to this Agreement or
any applicable sub-servicing agreement, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, (i) the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator shall not be
required to deliver a Back-Up Certification to each other if both are the same
Person and the Master Servicer is the Certifying Person and (ii) the Master
Servicer shall not be obligated to sign the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification in the
event that it does not receive any Back-Up Certification required to be
furnished to it pursuant to this section or any Servicing Agreement or Custodial
Agreement.
(f) Pursuant to the related Servicing Agreements, the Master Servicer shall
enforce the obligation of each Servicer to provide the Back-up Certification
required pursuant to each of the Servicing Agreements.
(g) Upon any filing with the Commission prepared and filed by the
Securities Administrator, the Securities Administrator shall promptly deliver or
make available to the Depositor a copy of any such executed report, statement or
information.
(h) (i) The obligations set forth in paragraphs (a) through (h) 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 Securities Administrator is able to do
so under applicable law, unless otherwise requested by the Depositor, the
Securities Administrator shall prepare and file with the Commission a Form 15
Suspension Notification executed by the Master Servicer with respect to the
Trust, with a copy to the Depositor. At the beginning of the calendar year after
the filing of a Form 15 Suspension Notification, if the Depositor or the
Certificate Registrar determines that the number of Certificateholders 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, it shall promptly notify the Securities Administrator and the
Securities Administrator shall recommence preparing and filing reports on Form
8-K, Form 10-D and Form 10-K as required pursuant to this Section and the
79
then-current reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and the parties hereto
will again have the obligations set forth in paragraphs (a) through (h) of this
Section.
(ii) In the event that the Securities Administrator is unable to
timely file with the Commission all or any required portion of any Form
8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K required to be filed by 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 or for any
other reason, the Securities Administrator will immediately electronically
notify the Depositor and the Master Servicer of such inability to make a
timely filing with the Commission. In the case of Form 10-D and Form 10-K,
the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the
Depositor will cooperate to prepare and file a Form 12b-25 and a Form
10-D/A and Form 10-K/A as applicable, pursuant to Rule 12b-25 of the
Exchange Act. In the case of Form 8-K, the Securities Administrator 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 Form 10-D. In the event that any previously filed
Form 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 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 Securities Administrator
will notify the Depositor and such other parties to the transaction as are
affected by such amendment, and such parties will cooperate to prepare any
necessary Form 8-K/A, Form 10-D/A or Form 10-K/A. Any Form 15, Form 12b-25
or any amendment to Form 8-K or Form 10-D shall be signed by a duly
authorized officer (and a senior officer with respect to the Form 10-K) of
the Master Servicer. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the
performance by the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator of its
duties under this Section 3.22(h) related to the timely preparation,
arrangement for execution and filing of Form 15, a Form 12b-25 or any
amendment to Form 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K is contingent upon each such
party performing its duties under this Section 3.22(h). Neither the Master
Servicer nor the Securities Administrator shall have any liability for any
loss, expense, damage, claim arising out of or with respect to any failure
to properly prepare, arrange for execution and/or timely file any such Form
15, Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Forms 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K,
where such failure results from the Securities Administrator's inability or
failure to receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party
hereto or any Servicer, the Custodian or any Servicing Function Participant
needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 15, Form 12b-25
or any amendments to Forms 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K, not resulting from
its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
(i) Notwithstanding the provision of Section 11.01, this Section 3.22 may
be amended without the consent of the Certificateholders.

Interest, the Class 2-LS Interest, the Class 3-LS Interest, the Class 4-LS
84
Interest and the Class 5-LS Interest such that the Subordinate Balance Ratio is

and any amounts undistributed from prior Distribution Dates which such amount
shall equal the Accrued Certificate Interest and any Class Unpaid Interest
Shortfall in respect of its Corresponding Class or Classes of Certificates, in
each case to the extent actually distributed thereon. Such amounts distributed
to the Uncertificated Middle-Tier Interests in respect of principal and interest
with respect to any Distribution Date are referred to herein collectively as the

(0) 00.0000000000%, to the Class 4-A-2 Certificates, until
their Class Certificate Balance has been reduced to zero; and
(B) 5.5406415433% to the Class 4-A-4 Certificates, until their
Class Certificate Balance has been reduced to zero.
(v) With respect to the Group 5 Senior Certificates:
On each Distribution Date prior to the Senior Credit Support Depletion
Date, the amount distributable to the Group 5 Senior Certificates pursuant
to Section 5.02(a)(ii) for such Distribution Date, will be distributed,
sequentially, to the Class 5-A-1 and Class 5-A-2 Certificates, in that
order, until their Class Certificate Balances have been reduced to zero.
(vi) On each Distribution Date on or after the Senior Credit Support
Depletion Date, notwithstanding the allocation and priority set forth
above, the portion of the Pool Distribution Amount with respect to a Loan
Group available to be distributed as principal of the Senior Certificates
of the Related Group shall be distributed, concurrently, as principal of
such Classes of Senior Certificates (other than the Exchangeable
Certificates), pro rata, on the basis of their respective Class Certificate
Balances (or in the case of a Class of Exchangeable REMIC Certificates, the
sum of its Class Certificate Balance and the proportionate share of the
Class Certificate Balances of all related Exchangeable Classes) immediately
prior to that Distribution Date, until the Class Certificate Balances
thereof are reduced to zero.
(vii) The Class 2-A-6, Class 2-A-8, Class 4-A-3, Class 4-A-6, Class
4-A-8 and Class 5-A-3 Certificates are Interest Only Certificates and are
not entitled to distributions in respect of principal.
(viii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, on each Distribution Date prior
to the Senior Credit Support Depletion Date but on or after the date on
which the aggregate Class Certificate Balance of the Senior Certificates of
a Group has been reduced to zero, amounts otherwise distributable from the
amounts described in clauses (i)(e) and (f) and the amount described in
87
clause (ii) of the definition of "Principal Amount" for such Distribution
Date and with respect to the Related Loan Group on the Subordinate
Certificates will be paid as principal to the remaining classes of Senior
Certificates of the other Group or Groups together with the applicable
Senior Principal Distribution Amount in accordance with the priorities set
forth for the applicable Group in clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v)
above, provided that on such Distribution Date (a) the Total Subordinate
Percentage for such Distribution Date is less than twice the initial Total
Subordinate Percentage or (b) the outstanding principal balance of all
Mortgage Loans (including, for this purpose, any Mortgage Loans in
foreclosure or any related REO Property and any Mortgage Loans for which
the mortgagor has filed for bankruptcy) delinquent sixty (60) days or more
(averaged over the preceding six month period), as a percentage of the
aggregate Class Certificate Balance of the Subordinate Certificates, is
greater than or equal to 50%. If the Senior Certificates of two or more
Groups remain outstanding, the distributions described above will be made
to the Senior Certificates of such Groups, pro rata, in proportion to the
aggregate Class Certificate Balance of the Senior Certificates of each such
Group. In addition, after giving effect to the second preceding sentence,
if on any Distribution Date the aggregate Class Certificate Balance of the
Senior Certificates of a Group is greater than the Adjusted Pool Amount of
the Related Loan Group (any such Group, an "Undercollateralized Group" and
any such excess, an "Undercollateralized Amount"), all amounts otherwise
distributable as principal on the Subordinate Certificates pursuant to
Section 5.02(a)(iii)(L), (J), (H), (F), (D) and (B), in that order, will be
paid as principal to the Senior Certificates of such Undercollateralized
Group together with the applicable Senior Principal Distribution Amount in
accordance with the priorities set forth for the applicable Group above
under (i), (ii) (iii), (iv) or (v) until the aggregate Class Certificate
Balance of the Senior Certificates of such Undercollateralized Group equals
the Adjusted Pool Amount of the Related Loan Group. Also, the amount of any
Class Unpaid Interest Shortfalls with respect to an Undercollateralized
Group (including any Class Unpaid Interest Shortfalls for such Distribution
Date) will be paid to such Undercollateralized Group prior to the payment
of any Undercollateralized Amount from amounts otherwise distributable as
principal on the Subordinate Certificates pursuant to Section
5.02(a)(iii)(L), (J), (H), (F), (D) and (B), in that order; such amount
will be paid to the Senior Certificates of such Undercollateralized Group
up to their Interest Distribution Amounts for such Distribution Date. If
two or more Groups in are Undercollateralized Groups, the distributions
described above will be made, pro rata, in proportion to their
Undercollateralized Amounts.
(ix) On each Distribution Date, the amount distributable as principal
to a Class of Exchangeable Certificates shall equal its Class Principal
Distribution Amount. Such amount shall reduce proportionately the amount
distributable as principal to the Related Class of Exchangeable REMIC
Certificates.
(c) On each Distribution Date, Accrued Certificate Interest for each Class
of Certificates for such Distribution Date shall be reduced by such Class' pro
rata share, based on such Class' Interest Distribution Amount for such
Distribution Date, without taking into account the allocation made by this
Section 5.02(c), of an amount equal to the sum of (A) Non-Supported Interest
Shortfalls on the Mortgage Loans, (B) on and after the related Senior Credit
Support Depletion Date, any other Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans in the
88
Related Loan Group or Related Loan Groups allocable to interest and (C) Relief
Act Reductions incurred on the Mortgage Loans with respect to such Distribution
Date.
(d) Notwithstanding the priority and allocation contained in Section
5.02(a)(iii), if with respect to any Class of Subordinate Certificates on any
Distribution Date, (i) the aggregate of the Class Certificate Balances
immediately prior to such Distribution Date of all Classes of Subordinate
Certificates which have a higher numerical Class designation than such Class,
divided by (ii) the aggregate Pool Principal Balance for all Loan Groups
immediately prior to such Distribution Date (for each Class, the "Fractional
Interest") is less than the Original Fractional Interest for such Class, no
distribution of principal in respect of clause (ii) of the Subordinate Principal
Distribution Amounts will be made to any Classes of Subordinate Certificates
which have a higher numerical Class designation than such Class (the "Restricted
Classes") and the Class Certificate Balances of the Restricted Classes of
Subordinate Certificates will not be used in determining the Pro Rata Share for
the Subordinate Certificates that are not Restricted Classes. If the aggregate
Class Certificate Balances of the Subordinate Certificates that are not
Restricted Classes are reduced to zero, notwithstanding the previous sentence,
any funds remaining will be distributed sequentially to the Subordinate
Certificates that are Restricted Classes in order of their respective numerical
Class designations (beginning with the Class of Subordinate Certificates that is
a Restricted Class then outstanding with the lowest numerical Class
designation).
Section 5.03 Allocation of Losses.
(a) No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the related Distribution
Date, the Master Servicer shall inform the Securities Administrator in writing
with respect to each Mortgage Loan: (1) whether any Realized Loss is a Deficient
Valuation or a Debt Service Reduction, (2) of the amount of such loss or
Deficient Valuation, or of the terms of such Debt Service Reduction and (3) of
the total amount of Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans in each Loan Group.
Based on such information, the Securities Administrator shall determine the
total amount of Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans in each Loan Group with
respect to the related Distribution Date. Realized Losses shall be allocated to
the Certificates by a reduction in the Class Certificate Balances of the
designated Classes pursuant to the operation of Section 5.03(b).
(b) The Class Certificate Balance of the Class of Subordinate Certificates
then outstanding with the highest numerical Class designation shall be reduced
or increased on each Distribution Date by the amount, if any, necessary such
that the aggregate of the Class Certificate Balances of all outstanding Classes
of Certificates (after giving effect to the amount to be distributed as a
distribution of principal on such Distribution Date) equals the sum of the
Adjusted Pool Amounts for all Loan Groups for such Distribution Date.
After the Senior Credit Support Depletion Date, the Class Certificate
Balances (and, in the case of the Exchangeable REMIC Certificates, the
applicable Combination Balance) of the Senior Certificates (other than the
Exchangeable Certificates) of each Group in the aggregate shall be reduced or
increased on each Distribution Date by the amount, if any, necessary such that
the aggregate of the Class Certificate Balances (and, in the case of the
Exchangeable REMIC Certificates, the applicable Combination Balance) of all
outstanding Classes of Senior Certificates (other than the Exchangeable
89
Certificates) of such Group (after giving effect to the amount to be distributed
as a distribution of principal on such Distribution Date) equals the Adjusted
Pool Amount for the Related Loan Group for such Distribution Date.
Any such reduction or increase shall be allocated among the Senior
Certificates (other than the Exchangeable Certificates) of such Group based on
the Class Certificate Balances (and, in the case of the Exchangeable REMIC
Certificates, the applicable Combination Balance) immediately prior to such
Distribution Date until the Class Certificate Balances (and, in the case of the
Exchangeable REMIC Certificates, the applicable Combination Balance) thereof
have been reduced to zero. In the event that all or a portion of a Class of
Exchangeable REMIC Certificates in any Exchangeable REMIC Combination is
exchanged for a proportionate portion of the Classes of Exchangeable
Certificates in the related Combination, the Classes of such Exchangeable
Certificates will be allocated a proportionate share of Realized Losses
allocated to the Class of Exchangeable REMIC Certificates in the related
Combination. Realized Losses allocated to the Class 2-A-5 Certificates will
reduce the Class 2-A-6 Notional Amount. Realized Losses allocated to the Class
2-A-7 Certificates will reduce the Class 2-A-8 Notional Amount. Realized Losses
allocated to the Class 4-A-2 Certificates will reduce the Class 4-A-3 Notional
Amount. Realized Losses allocated to the Class 4-A-5 Certificates will reduce
the Class 4-A-6 Notional Amount. Realized Losses allocated to the Class 4-A-7
Certificates will reduce the Class 4-A-8 Notional Amount. Realized Losses
allocated to the Class 5-A-2 Certificates will reduce the Class 5-A-3 Notional
Amount.
(c) Any reduction or increase in the Class Certificate Balance of a Class
of Certificates pursuant to Section 5.03(b) above shall be allocated among the
Certificates of such Class in proportion to their respective Percentage
Interests.
(d) The calculation of the amount to be distributed as principal to any
Class of Subordinate Certificates with respect to a Distribution Date (the
"Calculated Principal Distribution") shall be made prior to the allocation of
any Realized Losses with respect to the Mortgage Loans for such Distribution
Date; provided, however, the actual payment of principal to the Classes of
Subordinate Certificates shall be made subsequent to the allocation of Realized
Losses with respect to the Mortgage Loans for such Distribution Date. In the
event that after the allocation of Realized Losses with respect to the Mortgage
Loans for a Distribution Date, the Calculated Principal Distribution for a Class
of Subordinate Certificates is greater than the Class Certificate Balance of
such Class, the excess shall be distributed (i) first, sequentially, to the
Classes of Subordinate Certificates then outstanding (beginning with the Class
of Subordinate Certificates then outstanding with the lowest numerical
designation) until the Class Certificate Balance of each such Class is reduced
to zero and (ii) then to the Senior Certificates, pro rata.
(e) After the Senior Credit Support Depletion Date:
(i) On any Distribution Date on which the Class 2-A-4 Loss Allocation
Amount is greater than zero, the Class Certificate Balance of the Class
2-A-4 Certificates will be reduced by the Class 2-A-4 Loss Allocation
Amount and, notwithstanding Section 5.03(b), the Class Certificate Balances
of the Class 2-A-1, Class 2-A-2, Class 2-A-3, Class 2-A-5 and Class 2-A-7
Certificates will not be reduced by the Class 2-A-4 Loss Allocation Amount.
90
Notwithstanding the foregoing, on any Distribution Date in which the sum of
the Class 2-A-1 Loss Amount, Class 2-A-2 Loss Amount, Class 2-A-3 Loss
Amount, Class 2-A-5 Loss Amount and Class 2-A-7 Loss Amount exceeds the
Class Certificate Balance of the Class 2-A-4 Certificates prior to any
reduction for the Class 2-A-4 Loss Allocation Amount, such excess will be
distributed, pro rata, based on the Class Certificate Balances of the Class
2-A-1, Class 2-A-2, Class 2-A-3, Class 2-A-5 and Class 2-A-7 Certificates,
in reduction of the Class Certificate Balances of the Class 2-A-1, Class
2-A-2, Class 2-A-3, Class 2-A-5 and Class 2-A-7 Certificates. Any increase
in the Class Certificate Balance allocated to the Class 2-A-1, Class 2-A-2,
Class 2-A-3, Class 2-A-5 and Class 2-A-7 Certificates pursuant to Section
5.03(b) will instead increase the Class Certificate Balance of the Class
2-A-4 Certificates.
(ii) On any Distribution Date on which the Class 3-A-2 Loss Allocation
Amount is greater than zero, the Class Certificate Balance of the Class
3-A-2 Certificates will be reduced by the Class 3-A-2 Loss Allocation
Amount and, notwithstanding Section 5.03(b), the Class Certificate Balance
of the Class 3-A-1 Certificates will not be reduced by the Class 3-A-2 Loss
Allocation Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on any Distribution Date
in which the Class 3-A-1 Loss Amount exceeds the Class Certificate Balance
of the Class 3-A-2 Certificates prior to any reduction for the Class 3-A-2
Loss Allocation Amount, such excess will be distributed in reduction of the
Class Certificate Balance of the Class 3-A-1 Certificates. Any increase in
the Class Certificate Balance allocated to the Class 3-A-1 Certificates
pursuant to Section 5.03(b) will instead increase the Class Certificate
Balance of the Class 3-A-2 Certificates.
(iii) On any Distribution Date on which the Class 4-A-4 Loss
Allocation Amount is greater than zero, the Class Certificate Balance of
the Class 4-A-4 Certificates will be reduced by the Class 4-A-4 Loss
Allocation Amount and, notwithstanding Section 5.03(b), the Class
Certificate Balances of the Class 4-A-1 and Class 4-A-2 Certificates will
not be reduced by the Class 4-A-4 Loss Allocation Amount. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, on any Distribution Date in which the sum of the Class 4-A-1
Loss Amount and Class 4-A-2 Loss Amount exceeds the Class Certificate
Balance of the Class 4-A-4 Certificates prior to any reduction for the
Class 4-A-4 Loss Allocation Amount, such excess will be distributed, pro
rata, based on the Class Certificate Balances of the Class 4-A-1 and Class
4-A-2 Certificates, in reduction of the Class Certificate Balances of the
Class 4-A-1 and Class 4-A-2 Certificates. Any increase in the Class
Certificate Balance allocated to the Class 4-A-1 and Class 4-A-2
Certificates pursuant to Section 5.03(b) will instead increase the Class
Certificate Balance of the Class 4-A-4 Certificates.
(f) With respect to any Distribution Date, Realized Losses allocated
pursuant to this Section 5.03 will be allocated to each Uncertificated
Lower-Tier Interest as described in Section 5.02 and to each Uncertificated
Middle-Tier Interest in an amount equal to the aggregate Realized Losses
allocated to such Uncertificated Middle-Tier Interest's Corresponding Upper-Tier
Class or Classes of Certificates.
(g) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.03, no Class
Certificate Balance of a Class of Certificates will be increased on any
Distribution Date such that the Class Certificate Balance of such Class exceeds
its Initial Class Certificate Balance (or Aggregate Denomination, in the case of
a Class of Exchangeable or Exchangeable REMIC Certificates) less all
91
distributions of principal previously distributed in respect of such Class on
prior Distribution Dates.
Section 5.04 Statements to Certificateholders.
(a) Prior to the Distribution Date in each month, based upon the
information provided to the Securities Administrator on the Master Servicer's
Certificate delivered to the Securities Administrator pursuant to Section 4.01
and with respect to subsections (V) and (W) below, after consultation with the
Depositor, the Securities Administrator shall determine the following

(F) the Class Certificate Balance of each Class of Certificates
before and after giving effect to the distribution of principal on
such Distribution Date;
(G) for each Loan Group, the aggregate Stated Principal Balance
of the Mortgage Loans in such Loan Group for the preceding
Distribution Date and the related Distribution Date;
(H) for each Loan Group, the Senior Percentage, the Senior
Prepayment Percentage, the Subordinate Percentage and the Subordinate
Prepayment Percentage for such Distribution Date;
(I) the Total Senior Percentage and the Total Subordinate
Percentage for such Distribution Date;
(J) the amount of the Servicing Fees paid to or retained by the
Servicers and the amount of the Securities Administration Fee paid or
92
retained by the Securities Administrator with respect to each Loan
Group and such Distribution Date;
(K) the Pass-Through Rate for each Class of Certificates with
respect to such Distribution Date;
(L) the amount of Periodic Advances included in the distribution
on such Distribution Date and the aggregate amount of Periodic
Advances outstanding as of the close of business on the Determination
Date immediately preceding such Distribution Date;
(M) for each Loan Group, the number and aggregate principal
amounts of Mortgage Loans (A) delinquent (exclusive of Mortgage Loans
in foreclosure or bankruptcy) 31 to 60 days, 61 to 90 days and 91 or

calendar month preceding such Distribution Date;
(N) for each Loan Group, with respect to any Mortgage Loans that
became REO Properties during the preceding calendar month, the
aggregate number of such Mortgage Loans and the aggregated Stated
Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loans as of the close of business
on the Determination Date preceding such Distribution Date and the
date of acquisition of the REO Properties;
(O) for each Loan Group, the total number and principal balance
of any REO Properties (and market value, if available) as of the close
of business on the Determination Date preceding such Distribution
Date;
(P) for each Loan Group, the aggregate amount of Realized Losses
incurred during the preceding calendar month;
(Q) for each Loan Group, the Reimbursement Amount;

10-D relating to such Distribution Date and provided that the
Securities Administrator is reasonably able to include such
information in the statement, material breaches of Mortgage Loan
representations and warranties of which the Securities Administrator
has knowledge or has received written notice;
(W) unless such information is otherwise set forth in the Form
10-D relating to such Distribution Date and provided that the
Securities Administrator is reasonably able to include such

this Agreement of which the Securities Administrator has knowledge or
has received written notice; and
(X) whether any exchanges of Exchangeable or Exchangeable REMIC
Certificates have taken place since the preceding Distribution Date,

Exchangeable REMIC Certificates or Exchangeable Certificates that were
received by the Certificateholder as a result of such exchange.
For all purposes of this Agreement, with respect to any Mortgage Loan,
delinquencies shall be determined and reported based on the so-called "MBA"
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 Monthly Payment due on a Due Date if such Monthly 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
Monthly Payment if such Monthly Payment were not made by the close of business
on the Mortgage Loan's second succeeding Due Date.
(b) No later than each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator,
based upon information supplied to it on the Master Servicer's Certificate,
shall make available to each Holder of a Certificate, each Rating Agency and the
Master Servicer, a single statement setting forth the information set forth in
Sections 5.04(a) (a "Monthly Statement").
On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall prepare and
furnish to each Financial Market Service, in electronic or such other format and
media mutually agreed upon by the Securities Administrator, the Financial Market
Service and the Depositor, the information contained in the Master Servicer's
Certificate described in Section 4.01 for such Distribution Date.
The Securities Administrator will make the Monthly Statement to
Certificateholders (and, at its option, any additional files containing the same
or additional information in an alternative format) available each month to
Certificateholders and other parties to this Agreement via the Securities
Administrator's Internet website. The Securities Administrator's Internet
website shall initially be located at "xxx.xxxxxxx.xxx." Assistance in using the
94
website can be obtained by calling the Securities Administrator's customer
service desk at (000) 000-0000. Parties that are unable to use the website are
entitled to have a paper copy mailed to them via first class mail by calling the
customer service desk and indicating such. The Securities Administrator shall
have the right to change the way the Monthly Statements to Certificateholders
are distributed in order to make such distribution more convenient and/or more
accessible to the above parties and the Securities Administrator shall provide
timely and adequate notification to all above parties regarding any such
changes.
Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, the
Securities Administrator shall furnish to each Person who at any time during the
calendar year was the Holder of a Certificate, if requested in writing by such
Person, a statement containing the information set forth in clauses (C) and (D)
of Section 5.04(a), in each case aggregated for such calendar year or applicable
portion thereof during which such Person was a Certificateholder. Such
obligation of the Securities Administrator shall be deemed to have been
satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall be
provided by the Securities Administrator pursuant to any requirements of the
Code as from time to time in force.
The Securities Administrator shall deliver to the Holders of Certificates
any reports or information the Securities Administrator is required by this
Agreement or the Code, Treasury Regulations or REMIC Provisions to deliver to
the Holders of Certificates, and the Securities Administrator shall prepare and
provide to the Certificateholders (by mail, telephone, or publication as may be
permitted by applicable Treasury Regulations) such other reasonable information
as the Securities Administrator deems necessary or appropriate or is required by
the Code, Treasury Regulations, and the REMIC Provisions including, but not
limited to, (i) information to be reported to the Holder of the Residual
Certificate for quarterly notices on Schedule Q (Form 1066) (which information
shall be forwarded to the Holder of the Residual Certificate by the Securities
Administrator), (ii) information to be provided to the Holders of Certificates
with respect to amounts which should be included as interest and original issue
discount in such Holders' gross income and (iii) information to be provided to
all Holders of Certificates setting forth the percentage of each REMIC's assets,
determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations using a convention, not
inconsistent with Treasury Regulations, selected by the Securities Administrator
in its absolute discretion, that constitute real estate assets under Section 856
of the Code, and assets described in Section 7701(a)(19)(C) of the Code;
provided, however, that in setting forth the percentage of such assets of each
REMIC created hereunder, nothing contained in this Agreement, including without
limitation Section 7.03 hereof, shall be interpreted to require the Securities
Administrator periodically to appraise the fair market values of the assets of
the Trust Estate or to indemnify the Trust Estate or any Certificateholders from
any adverse federal, state or local tax consequences associated with a change
subsequently required to be made in the Depositor's initial good faith
determinations of such fair market values (if subsequent determinations are
required pursuant to the REMIC Provisions) made from time to time.
Section 5.05 Tax Returns and Reports to Certificateholders.
(a) For federal income tax purposes, each REMIC created hereunder shall
have a taxable year ending on December 31st and shall maintain its books on the
accrual method of accounting.
95
(b) The Securities Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared,
shall execute or cause to be executed by such Person as is required by the Code,
Treasury Regulations or state or local tax laws, regulations or rules and shall
file or cause to be filed with the Internal Revenue Service and applicable state
or local tax authorities income tax and information returns for each taxable
year with respect to each REMIC created hereunder containing such information at
the times and in the manner as may be required by the Code, the Treasury
Regulations or state or local tax laws, regulations, or rules, and shall furnish
or cause to be furnished to each REMIC created hereunder and the
Certificateholders the schedules, statements or information at such times and in
such manner as may be required thereby. The Master Servicer shall provide on a
timely basis to the Securities Administrator or its designee such information
with respect to the assets of the Trust Estate as is in its possession and
reasonably required by the Securities Administrator to enable it to perform its
obligations under this Article V. Within 30 days of the Closing Date, the
Securities Administrator shall obtain for each REMIC created hereunder a
taxpayer identification number on Form SS-4 and any similarly required state or
local forms or as otherwise permitted by the Internal Revenue Service, and shall
furnish or cause to be furnished to the Internal Revenue Service, on Form 8811
and any similarly required state or local forms or as otherwise required by the
Code or the Treasury Regulations, the name, title, address and telephone number
of the person that Holders of the Certificates may contact for tax information
relating thereto, together with such additional information at the time or times
and in the manner required by the Code or the Treasury Regulations. Such
federal, state, or local income tax and information returns shall be signed by
the Trustee, or such other Person as may be required to sign such returns by the
Code, the Treasury Regulations or state or local tax laws, regulations, or
rules.
(c) In the first federal income tax return (and any similar required state
or local income tax returns) of each REMIC created hereunder for its short
taxable year ending December 31, 2006, REMIC status shall be elected for such
taxable year and all succeeding taxable years.
(d) The Securities Administrator will maintain or cause to be maintained
such records relating to each REMIC created hereunder, including but not limited
to records relating to the income, expenses, assets and liabilities of the Trust
Estate, and the initial fair market value and adjusted basis of the Trust Estate
property and assets determined at such intervals as may be required by the Code
or the Treasury Regulations, as may be necessary to prepare the foregoing
returns, schedules, statements or information.
Section 5.06 Tax Matters Person.
The Tax Matters Person shall have the same duties with respect to the
applicable REMIC as those of a "tax matters partner" under Subchapter C of
Chapter 63 of Subtitle F of the Code. The Holder of the Class 1-A-R Certificate
is hereby designated as the Tax Matters Person for the Upper-Tier REMIC, the
Middle-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC. By its acceptance of the Class 1-A-R
Certificate, such Holder irrevocably appoints the Securities Administrator as
its agent to perform all of the duties of the Tax Matters Person for the
Upper-Tier REMIC, the Middle-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC.
96
Section 5.07 Rights of the Tax Matters Person in Respect of the Securities
Administrator.
The Securities Administrator shall afford the Tax Matters Person, upon
reasonable notice during normal business hours, access to all records maintained
by the Securities Administrator in respect of its duties hereunder and access to
officers of the Securities Administrator responsible for performing such duties.
Upon request, the Securities Administrator shall furnish the Tax Matters Person
with its most recent report of condition published pursuant to law or to the
requirements of its supervisory or examining authority publicly available. The
Securities Administrator shall make available to the Tax Matters Person such
books, documents or records relating to the Securities Administrator's services
hereunder as the Tax Matters Person shall reasonably request. The Tax Matters
Person shall not have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure
to act by the Securities Administrator and is not obligated to supervise the
performance of the Securities Administrator under this Agreement or otherwise.
Section 5.08 REMIC and Exchangeable Certificate Grantor Trust Related
Covenants.
For as long as any REMIC or Exchangeable Certificate created hereunder
shall exist, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Depositor and the
Master Servicer shall act in accordance herewith to assure continuing treatment
of each REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC and each Exchangeable Certificates
Grantor Trust as a "grantor trust" within the meaning of the Code and related
regulations and avoid the imposition of tax on any REMIC or Exchangeable
Certificates Grantor Trust created hereunder. In particular:
(a) Neither the Securities Administrator nor the Trustee shall create, or
permit the creation of, any "interests" in any REMIC created hereunder within
the meaning of Code Section 860D(a)(2) other than the interests represented by
the Upper-Tier Regular Interests, the Residual Certificate, the Uncertificated
Middle-Tier Regular Interests and the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Regular
Interests. (b) Except as otherwise provided in the Code, (i) the Depositor and
the Master Servicer shall not contribute to the Trust Estate and the Trustee
shall not accept property unless substantially all of the property held in each
REMIC constitutes either "qualified mortgages" or "permitted investments" as
defined in Code Sections 860G(a)(3) and (5), respectively, and (ii) no property
shall be contributed, or deemed contributed, to any REMIC created hereunder
after the start-up day unless such contribution would not subject the Trust
Estate to the 100% tax on contributions to a REMIC created hereunder after the
start-up day of such REMIC imposed by Code Section 860G(d).
(c) Neither the Securities Administrator, on behalf of the Trust Estate or
the Trustee, nor the Trustee shall accept on behalf of any REMIC created
hereunder any fee or other compensation for services and none of the Securities
Administrator, the Trustee or the Master Servicer shall knowingly accept, on
behalf of the Trust Estate any income from assets other than those permitted to
be held by a REMIC.
(d) Neither the Securities Administrator, on behalf of the Trust Estate or
the Trustee, nor the Trustee shall sell or permit the sale of all or any portion
of the Mortgage Loans (other than in accordance with Sections 2.02 or 2.04),
97
unless such sale is pursuant to a "qualified liquidation" of the applicable
REMIC as defined in Code Section 860F(a)(4)(A) and in accordance with Article X.

Trust and each REMIC created hereunder on a calendar year taxable year basis and

except that, with the prior written consent of the Master Servicer and the
Depositor, the Securities Administrator may engage in the activities otherwise
prohibited by the foregoing paragraphs (b), (c) and (d); provided that the
Master Servicer shall have delivered to the Securities Administrator an Opinion
of Counsel to the effect that such transaction will not result in the imposition
of a tax on any REMIC created hereunder and will not disqualify any such REMIC
from treatment as a REMIC; and, provided further, that the Master Servicer shall
have demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Securities Administrator that such
action will not adversely affect the rights of the Holders of the Certificates
and the Securities Administrator and that such action will not adversely impact
the rating of the Certificates. None of the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator, the Trustee or any Servicer shall, unless the Mortgagor is in
default with respect to the Mortgage Loan or such default is, in the judgment of
the Servicer, reasonably foreseeable, permit any modification with respect to
any Mortgage Loan that would (i) change the Mortgage Rate, defer or forgive the
payment thereof of any principal or interest payments, reduce the Stated
Principal Balance (except for actual payments of principal) or extend the final
maturity date with respect to such Mortgage Loan, (ii) affect adversely the
status of any REMIC as a REMIC or (iii) cause any REMIC to be subject to a tax
on "prohibited transactions" or "contributions" pursuant to the REMIC
Provisions. Further, none of the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator,
the Trustee or any Servicer shall permit any modification with respect to any
Mortgage Loan that would both (x) effect an exchange or reissuance of such
Mortgage Loan under Section 1.860G 2(b) of the Treasury regulations and (y)
cause any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Estate to fail to qualify as a
REMIC under the Code or the imposition of any tax on "prohibited transactions"
or "contributions" after the Start-up Day under the REMIC Provisions.

(d) Any beneficial owner of Exchangeable Certificates that exchanges such

of the documents specified in Section 2.01. The Classes of Certificates shall be
available to investors in minimum denominations of initial Certificate Balance
(or initial notional amount) and integral multiples in excess thereof set forth
in the Preliminary Statement. The Offered Certificates (other than the Class
1-A-R Certificate) shall initially be issued in book-entry form through the
Depository and delivered to the Depository or, pursuant to the Depository's
instructions on behalf of the Depository to, and deposited with, the Certificate
Custodian, and all other Classes of Certificates shall initially be issued in
definitive, fully-registered form.
The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on
behalf of the Securities Administrator by an authorized officer or signatory.
Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were,
at the time when such signatures were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of
the Securities Administrator shall bind the Securities Administrator,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to be so
authorized prior to the execution and delivery of such Certificates or did not
hold such offices or positions at the date of such Certificate. No Certificate
shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any
purpose, unless such Certificate shall have been manually authenticated by the
Securities Administrator substantially in the form provided for herein, and such
authentication upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.
Section 6.02 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
(a) The Securities Administrator shall cause to be kept at an office or
agency in the city in which the Corporate Trust Office of the Securities
Administrator is located a Certificate Register in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Securities Administrator shall
provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of
Certificates as herein provided. The Securities Administrator shall initially
serve as Certificate Registrar for the purpose of registering Certificates and
transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided.
101
(b) At the option of the Certificateholders, Certificates may be exchanged
for other Certificates of authorized denominations of a like Class, tenor and
aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of the Certificates to be
exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any Certificates are so
surrendered for exchange, the Securities Administrator shall execute and the
Securities Administrator shall authenticate and deliver the Certificates that
the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every
Certificate presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so
required by the Securities Administrator or the Certificate Registrar) be duly
endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Securities Administrator and the Certificate Registrar duly
executed by, the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing.
(c) (i) Except as provided in paragraph (c)(iii) below, the Book-Entry
Certificates shall at all times remain registered in the name of the Depository
or its nominee and at all times: (A) registration of the Book-Entry Certificates
may not be transferred by the Securities Administrator except to another
Depository; (B) 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; (C) 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; (D) the Depository may collect
its usual and customary fees, charges and expenses from its Depository
Participants; (E) the Securities Administrator shall deal with the Depository as
the representative 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 the Depository shall not be deemed to be
inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners; and
(F) the Securities Administrator 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.
(ii) 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.
(iii) If the Depository advises the Securities Administrator in
writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly
discharge its responsibilities as Depository and the Securities
Administrator or the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor,
the Securities Administrator shall notify all Certificate Owners through
the Depository of the occurrence of such event and of the availability of
definitive, fully-registered Certificates (the "Definitive Certificates")
to such Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the
Securities Administrator of the related Class of Certificates by the
Depository (or by the Certificate Custodian, if it holds such Class on
behalf of the Depository), accompanied by the instructions from the
Depository for registration, the Securities Administrator shall issue the
Definitive Certificates. None of the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the
Securities Administrator or the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in
102
delivery of such instruction and may conclusively rely on, and shall be
protected in relying on, such instructions. The Depositor shall provide the
Securities Administrator with an adequate inventory of certificates to
facilitate the issuance and transfer of Definitive Certificates. Upon the
issuance of Definitive Certificates, the Securities Administrator shall
recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders
hereunder.
(d) No transfer of a Private Certificate shall be made unless such transfer
is exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act and any applicable
state securities laws or is made in accordance with the 1933 Act and such laws.
In the event of any such transfer, (i) unless such transfer is made in reliance
on Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, the Securities Administrator or the Depositor
may require a written Opinion of Counsel (which may be in-house counsel)
acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Securities Administrator and the Depositor that such transfer may be made
pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable exemption and the basis
therefor, from the 1933 Act and such laws or is being made pursuant to the 1933
Act and such laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the
Securities Administrator or the Depositor and (ii) the Securities Administrator
shall require a certificate from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such
transfer substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G-1 and a
certificate from such Certificateholder's prospective transferee substantially
in the form attached hereto either as Exhibit G-2A or as Exhibit G-2B, which
certificates shall not be an expense of the Securities Administrator or the
Depositor; provided that the foregoing requirements under clauses (i) and (ii)
shall not apply to a transfer of a Private Certificate between or among the
Depositor, the Sponsor, their affiliates or both. The Depositor shall provide to
any Holder of a Private Certificate and any prospective transferees 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 1933 Act pursuant to the
registration exemption provided by Rule 144A. The Holder of a Private
Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to,
indemnify the Securities Administrator 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.
(e) No transfer of an ERISA Restricted Certificate shall be made unless the
transferee delivers to the Securities Administrator either (i) a representation
letter substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H from the
transferee of such Certificate, which representation letter shall not be an
expense of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the
Servicers or the Master Servicer, or (ii) in the case of any ERISA Restricted
Certificate (other than the Class 1-A-R Certificate) presented for registration
in the name of an employee benefit plan or arrangement, including an individual
retirement account, subject to ERISA, the Code, or any federal, state or local
law ("Similar Law") which is similar to the prohibited transaction provisions of
ERISA or the Code or the fiduciary provions of ERISA (collectively, a "Plan"),
or a person acting on behalf of or using assets of a Plan, an Opinion of Counsel
in form and substance satisfactory to the Securities Administrator 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 Section 406 of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or a violation of Similar Law
and will not subject the Trustee, the Depositor, the Securities Administrator or
the Master Servicer to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in this
Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the
103
Depositor, the Securities Administrator or the Master Servicer. Any transferee
of an ERISA Restricted Certificate that does not comply with either clause (i)
or (ii) of the preceding sentence will be deemed to have made one of the
representations set forth in Exhibit H. For purposes of clause (i) of the second
preceding sentence, such representation shall be deemed to have been made to the
Certificate Registrar by the acceptance by a Certificate Owner of a Book-Entry
Certificate of the beneficial interest in any such Class of ERISA Restricted
Certificates, unless the Certificate Registrar shall have received from the
transferee an alternative representation or Opinion of Counsel acceptable in
form and substance to the Securities Administrator. Notwithstanding anything
else to the contrary herein, any purported transfer of an ERISA Restricted
Certificate to or on behalf of a Plan without the delivery to the Securities
Administrator of an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Securities
Administrator as described above shall be void and of no effect.
Neither the Securities Administrator nor the Certificate Registrar shall
have any liability for transfers of Book-Entry Certificates made through the
book-entry facilities of the Depository or between or among any Depository
Participants or Certificate Owners, made in violation of applicable
restrictions. The Securities Administrator 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.
To the extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not limited
to, ERISA), the Securities Administrator 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 6.02 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 Securities Administrator in accordance with the foregoing
requirements.
(f) 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 Securities Administrator of any change or impending change in
its status as a Permitted Transferee.
(ii) No Person shall acquire an Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate unless such Ownership Interest is a pro rata undivided
interest.
(iii) In connection with any proposed transfer of any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate, the Securities Administrator shall
require delivery to it, in form and substance satisfactory to it, of an
affidavit substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I from the
proposed transferee and a certificate substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit T from the transferor.
104
(iv) Notwithstanding the delivery of an affidavit by a proposed
transferee under clause (iii) above, if a Responsible Officer of the
Securities Administrator has actual knowledge that the proposed transferee
is not a Permitted Transferee, no transfer of any Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate to such proposed transferee shall be effected.
(v) No Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate may be purchased
by or transferred to any Person that is not a U.S. Person, unless (A) such
Person holds such Residual Certificate in connection with the conduct of a
trade or business within the United States and furnishes the transferor and
the Securities Administrator with an effective Internal Revenue Service
Form W-8ECI (or successor thereto) or (B) the transferee delivers to both
the transferor and the Securities Administrator an Opinion of Counsel from
a nationally-recognized tax counsel to the effect that such transfer is in
accordance with the requirements of the Code and the regulations
promulgated thereunder and that such transfer of a Residual Certificate
will not be disregarded for federal income tax purposes.
(vi) Any attempted or purported transfer of any Ownership Interest in
a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 6.02
shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported
transferee. If any purported transferee shall, in violation of the
provisions of this Section 6.02, become a Holder of a Residual Certificate,
then the prior Holder of such Residual Certificate that is a Permitted
Transferee shall, upon discovery that the registration of transfer of such
Residual Certificate was not in fact permitted by this Section 6.02, be
restored to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of
registration of transfer of such Residual Certificate. The Securities
Administrator shall be under no liability to any Person for any
registration of transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not
permitted by this Section 6.02 or for making any distributions due on such
Residual Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with
respect to such Holder under the provisions of the Agreement so long as the
transfer was registered in accordance with this Section 6.02. The
Securities Administrator shall be entitled to recover from any Holder of a
Residual Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted Transferee at the
time such distributions were made all distributions made on such Residual
Certificate. Any such distributions so recovered by the Securities
Administrator shall be distributed and delivered by the Securities
Administrator to the prior Holder of such Residual Certificate that is a
Permitted Transferee.
(vii) If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the
restrictions in this Section 6.02, then the Securities Administrator, based
on information provided to the Securities Administrator by the Master
Servicer, will provide to the Internal Revenue Service, and to the Persons
specified in Section 860E(e)(3) and (6) of the Code, information needed to
compute the tax imposed under Section 860E(e) of the Code on transfers of
residual interests to disqualified organizations. The expenses of the
Securities Administrator under this clause (vii) shall be reimbursable by
the Trust.
105
(viii) No Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be
acquired by a Plan or any Person acting on behalf of a Plan.
(g) No service charge shall be imposed for any transfer or exchange of
Certificates of any Class, but the Securities Administrator may require payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed
in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
(h) All Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be
destroyed by the Certificate Registrar.
Section 6.03 Transfer of Exchangeable REMIC and Exchangeable Certificates.
(a) Upon the presentation and surrender by any Certificateholder of its
Exchangeable REMIC or Exchangeable Certificates in the appropriate Combination
as set forth in Exhibit U hereto, such Certificateholder shall thereby transfer,
assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Securities Administrator, all of
such Certificateholder's right, title and interest in and to such Exchangeable
REMIC or Exchangeable Certificates, including all payments of interest thereon
received after the date of such presentation and surrender and until such
Certificateholder informs the Securities Administrator that it wishes to again

Certificates, as applicable.
(b) The Securities Administrator acknowledges any transfer and assignment
of Exchangeable REMIC or Exchangeable Certificates pursuant to the foregoing

(a) Exchangeable Certificates shall be exchangeable on the books of DTC for
Exchangeable REMIC Certificates and Exchangeable REMIC Certificates shall be
exchangeable on the books of DTC for Exchangeable Certificates, on and after the
Closing Date, by notice to the Securities Administrator substantially in the
form of Exhibit V hereto or under the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth
and otherwise in accordance with the procedures specified in this Agreement.
(b) In the case of each Combination, Certificates of the Class of
Exchangeable REMIC Certificates in such Combination shall be exchangeable for
Certificates of the Classes of Exchangeable Certificates related to such
Combination in respective Denominations, determined based on the proportion that
the Maximum Initial Class Certificate Balance of such Exchangeable REMIC
Certificates bear to the Maximum Initial Class Certificate Balances or Maximum
Initial Notional Amounts of the related Exchangeable Certificates, as set forth
in Exhibit U hereto. Except as provided in Section 5.10 of this Agreement, upon
any such exchange, the portions of the Exchangeable REMIC Certificates
designated for exchange shall be deemed cancelled and replaced by the
Exchangeable Certificates issued in exchange therefor. Correspondingly,
Exchangeable Certificates related to a Combination may be further designated for
exchange for Exchangeable REMIC Certificates in such Combination in respective
106
Denominations determined based on the proportion that the Maximum Initial Class
Certificate Balance of such Exchangeable REMIC Certificates bear to the Maximum
Initial Class Certificate Balances or or Maximum Initial Notional Amounts of the
related Exchangeable Certificates, as set forth in Exhibit U hereto. There shall
be no limitation on the number of exchanges authorized pursuant to this Section
6.04 and, except as provided below, no fee or other charge shall be payable to
the Securities Administrator or DTC in connection therewith.
(c) In order to effect an exchange of Exchangeable REMIC Certificates or
Exchangeable Certificates, the Certificateholder shall notify the Securities
Administrator by e mail at xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx no later than two
Business Days before the proposed exchange date. The exchange date may be any
Business Day other than the first or last Business Day of the month, subject to
the Securities Administrator's approval. In addition, the Certificateholder must
provide notice on the Certificateholder's letterhead, which notice must carry a
medallion stamp guarantee and set forth the following information: the CUSIP
number of each Exchangeable REMIC or Exchangeable Certificate to be exchanged
and Exchangeable REMIC or Exchangeable Certificate to be received; the
outstanding portion of the Class Certificate Balance and/or Notional Amount and
the Maximum Initial Class Certificate Balance and/or Notional Amount of the
Exchangeable REMIC or Exchangeable Certificates to be exchanged; the
Certificateholder's DTC participant number; and the proposed exchange date.
After receiving the notice, the Securities Administrator shall e-mail the
Certificateholder with wire payment instructions relating to the exchange fee.
The Certificateholder will utilize the "deposit and withdrawal system" at DTC to
exchange the Certificates. The Securities Administrator shall verify the
proposed proportions to ensure that the principal and interest entitlements of
the Certificates received equal the entitlements of the Certificates
surrendered. If there is an error, the exchange will not occur until such error
is corrected. Unless rejected for error, a notice becomes irrevocable on the
second Business Day before the proposed exchange date.
(d) Notwithstanding any other provision herein set forth, a fee of $5,000
shall be payable to the Securities Administrator in connection with each
exchange.
(e) The Securities Administrator shall make the first distribution on an
Exchangeable REMIC or Exchangeable Certificate received in an exchange
transaction on the Distribution Date in the month following the month of the
exchange to the Certificateholder of record as of the close of business on the
last day of the month of the exchange.

If (a) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate
Registrar or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of
the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (b) there is delivered to
the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Depositor and the Certificate
Registrar such security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to each, to save
each of them harmless, then, in the absence of actual notice to the Securities
Administrator or the Certificate Registrar that such Certificate has been
acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Securities Administrator shall
authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor, Class
107
and Percentage Interest but bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.
Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Securities
Administrator 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 Securities Administrator and
the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued
pursuant to this Section shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of
ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen
or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.
Section 6.06 Persons Deemed Owners.
Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer,
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator,
the Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Certificate Registrar may treat
the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such
Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.01
and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Depositor, the Master
Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Certificate Registrar
or any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities
Administrator or the Certificate Registrar shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.
ARTICLE VII
THE DEPOSITOR AND THE MASTER SERVICER
Section 7.01 Respective Liabilities of the Depositor and the Master
Servicer.
The Depositor and the Master Servicer shall each be liable in accordance
herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically and respectively
imposed upon and undertaken by the Depositor and the Master Servicer herein. By
way of illustration and not limitation, the Depositor is not liable for the
master servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans, nor is it obligated
by Section 8.01 to assume any obligations of the Master Servicer or to appoint a
designee to assume such obligations, nor is it liable for any other obligation
hereunder that it may, but is not obligated to, assume unless it elects to
assume such obligation in accordance herewith.
Section 7.02 Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor or the Master
Servicer.
The Depositor and the Master Servicer will each keep in full effect its
existence, rights and franchises as a separate entity under the laws governing
its organization, 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, the Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans
and to perform its respective duties under this Agreement.
Any Person into which the Depositor or the Master Servicer may be merged or
consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger or consolidation to
which the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be a party, or any Person
succeeding to the business of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, shall be the
108
successor of the Depositor or the Master 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 Master Servicer shall be qualified to service mortgage loans on behalf of
Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac.
In connection with the succession to the Master Servicer under this
Agreement by any Person (i) into which the Master Servicer may be merged or
consolidated, or (ii) which may be appointed as a successor to the Master
Servicer, the Master Servicer shall notify the Depositor of such succession or
appointment and shall furnish to the Depositor and the Securities Administrator
in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor
and the Securities Administrator, all information reasonably necessary for the
Securities Administrator to accurately and timely report, pursuant to Section
3.22(d), 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 7.03 Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the Master Servicer
and Others.
None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any of the directors,
officers, employees or agents of the Depositor or of the Master Servicer shall
be under any liability to the Trust Estate or the Certificateholders for any
action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith
pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that
this provision shall not protect the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any such
Person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein or any
liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless
disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Master
Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the
Master 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 Depositor, the Master Servicer and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be indemnified
by the Trust Estate and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense
incurred in connection with any legal action relating to this Agreement or the
Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense related to any specific
Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense
shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) and any loss,
liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
gross negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless
disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. Neither of the Depositor nor the
Master Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend
any legal action which is not incidental to its respective duties under this
Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability;
provided, however, that the Depositor or the Master Servicer may in its
discretion 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 and
the interests of 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 Estate (except any expenses, costs
or liabilities incurred as a result of any breach of representations or
warranties of the related party or by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith
or gross negligence in the performance of duties of such party hereunder or by
reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties of such party hereunder),
and the Depositor and the Master Servicer shall each be entitled to be
109
reimbursed therefor out of amounts attributable to the applicable Mortgage Loans
on deposit in the Master Servicer Custodial Account as provided by Section 3.11.
Section 7.04 Depositor and Master Servicer Not to Resign.
Subject to the provisions of Section 7.02, neither the Depositor nor the
Master Servicer shall resign from its respective obligations and duties hereby
imposed on it except upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer
permissible under applicable law. Any such determination permitting the
resignation of the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Securities Administrator. No
such resignation by the Master Servicer shall become effective until the
Securities Administrator or a successor Master Servicer shall have assumed such
Master Servicer's responsibilities and obligations in accordance with Section
8.05 hereof.
ARTICLE VIII
DEFAULT
Section 8.01 Events of Default.
If any one of the following events ("Events of Default") shall occur and be
continuing:
(a) any failure by the Master Servicer to remit amounts to the Securities
Administrator for deposit into the Certificate Account in the amount and manner
provided herein so as to enable the Securities Administrator to distribute to
Holders of Certificates any payment required to be made under the terms of such
Certificates and this Agreement which continues unremedied by 12:00 P.M. New
York time on the related Distribution Date; or
(b) failure on the part of the Master Servicer duly to observe or perform
in any material respect any other covenants or agreements of the Master Servicer
set forth in the Certificates or in this Agreement, which covenants and
agreements continue unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which
written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have
been given to the Master Servicer by the Securities Administrator, the Trustee
or the Depositor, or to the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Securities
Administrator and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates evidencing Voting
Rights aggregating not less than 25% of all Certificates affected thereby; or
(c) the entry of a decree or order by a court or agency or supervisory
authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a
conservator, receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt,
marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings against the Master
Servicer, or for the winding up or liquidation of the Master Servicer's affairs,
and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a
period of 60 consecutive days; or
(d) the consent by the Master Servicer to the appointment of a conservator
or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling
of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Master
Servicer or of or relating to substantially all of its property; or the Master
Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they
110
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
(e) failure by the Master Servicer to duly perform, within the required
time period, its obligations under Section 3.20, Section 3.21 or Section 3.22;
or
(f) failure by the Master Servicer to make a Periodic Advance required to
be made by it pursuant to Section 3.19 by 5:00 P.M. New York time on the
Business Day preceding the related Distribution Date.
then, (i) in the case of Event of Default described in clauses (a) through (e)
hereof, so long as such Event of Default is actually known by a Responsible
Officer of the Trustee or the Depositor and shall not have been remedied by the
Master Servicer, either the Trustee or the Depositor may, and at the direction
of the Holders of Certificates evidencing Voting Rights aggregating not less
than 51% of all Certificates affected thereby shall, by notice then given in
writing to the Master Servicer (and to the Trustee, if given by the Depositor,
and to the Depositor, if given by the Trustee), terminate all of the rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement and (ii) in the case of
an Event of Default described in clause (f) hereof, so long as such event is
known by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall be obligated to
make such Periodic Advance and then, so long as such Event of Default shall not
have been remedied by 5:00 P.M. New York time on the related Distribution Date
(including the reimbursement to the Trustee by the Master Servicer, with
interest thereon at the Prime Rate (as set forth in The Wall Street Journal),
for any Periodic Advance made), the Trustee may, by notice given in writing to
the Master Servicer and the Depositor, terminate all of the rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement. On or after the receipt
by the Master Servicer of such written notice and subject to Section 8.05, all
authority and power of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, whether with
respect to the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to
and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under this Section 8.01 and Section
8.05, unless and until such time as the Trustee shall appoint a successor Master
Servicer pursuant to Section 8.05, and, without limitation, the Trustee is
hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Master
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 of the applicable Mortgage Loans and
related documents, or otherwise, including, without limitation, the recordation
of the assignments of the applicable Mortgage Loans to it. The Master Servicer
agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the
responsibilities and rights of the Master Servicer hereunder, including, without
limitation, the transfer to the Trustee for the administration by it of all cash
amounts that have been deposited by the Master Servicer in the Master Servicer
Custodial Account or thereafter received by the Master Servicer with respect to
the Mortgage Loans. Upon obtaining notice or knowledge of the occurrence of any
Event of Default, the Person obtaining such notice or knowledge shall give
prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective
addresses appearing in the Certificate Register and to each Rating Agency. All
costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with
transferring the master servicing data and information to the successor Master
Servicer and amending this Agreement to reflect such succession as Master
Servicer pursuant to this Section 8.01 shall be paid by the predecessor Master
111
Servicer (unless the predecessor Master Servicer is the Trustee, in which event
the previous Master Servicer shall be responsible for payment of such costs and
expenses so long as the transfer of servicing is not the result of an Event of
Default on the part of the Trustee in its capacity as the predecessor Master
Servicer). Notwithstanding the termination of the Master Servicer pursuant
hereto, the Master Servicer shall remain liable for any causes of action arising
out of any Event of Default occurring prior to such termination, subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Section 8.02 Remedies of Trustee.
During the continuance of any Event of Default, so long as such Event of
Default shall not have been remedied, the Trustee, in addition to the rights
specified in Section 8.01, shall have the right, in its own name as trustee of
an express trust, to take all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in
equity or by statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect the
interests, and enforce the rights and remedies, of the Certificateholders
(including the institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and
other proceedings and the filing of proofs of claim and debt in connection
therewith). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy
provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each
and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy and no
delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or
remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default.
Section 8.03 Directions by Certificateholders and Duties of Trustee During
Event of Default.
During the continuance of any Event of Default, Holders of Certificates
evidencing Voting Rights aggregating not less than 25% (or such other percentage
as may be required herein) of each Class of Certificates affected thereby may
direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the
Trustee under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Trustee shall be under
no obligation to pursue any such remedy, or to exercise any of the trusts or
powers vested in it by this Agreement (including, without limitation, (a) the
conducting or defending of any administrative action or litigation hereunder or
in relation hereto, and (b) the terminating of the Master Servicer or any
successor Master Servicer from its rights and duties as master servicer
hereunder) at the request, order or direction of any of the Certificateholders,
unless such Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable
security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and
liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby and, provided further,
that, subject to the provisions of Section 9.01, the Trustee shall have the
right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee, based upon an
Opinion of Counsel, determines that the action or proceeding so directed may not
lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith determines that the action or
proceeding so directed would subject the Trustee to a risk of personal liability
or be unjustly prejudicial to the non-assenting Certificateholders.
Section 8.04 Action upon Certain Failures of the Master Servicer and upon
Event of Default.
112
In the event that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual
knowledge of any failure of the Master Servicer specified in Section 8.01(a) or
(b) which would become an Event of Default upon such Master Servicer's failure
to remedy the same after notice, the Trustee shall give notice thereof to the
Master Servicer. If a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have knowledge of
an Event of Default, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the
Securities Administrator and the Securities Administrator shall give prompt
written notice thereof to the Certificateholders in accordance with Section
8.01.
Section 8.05 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
(a) (i) Within 90 days of the time the Master Servicer (and the Trustee if
such notice of termination is delivered by the Depositor) receives a notice of
termination pursuant to Section 8.01, the Trustee (or other named successor)
shall, subject to Section 3.07, be the successor in all respects to the Master
Servicer in its capacity as master 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 Master
Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof and thereof, as applicable, or shall
appoint a successor pursuant to Section 3.07. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i)
the parties hereto agree that the Trustee, in its capacity as successor Master
Servicer, immediately will assume all of the obligations of the Master Servicer
to make advances (including, without limitation, Advances pursuant to Section
3.19) under this Agreement, (ii) the Trustee, in its capacity as successor
Master Servicer, shall not be responsible for the lack of information and/or
documents that it cannot obtain through reasonable efforts and (iii) under no
circumstances shall any provision of this Agreement be construed to require the
Trustee (a) acting in its capacity as successor to the Master Servicer in its
obligation to make advances (including Advances pursuant to Section 3.19) to
advance, expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability
in the performance of its duties hereunder if it shall have reasonable grounds
for believing that such funds are non-recoverable, (b) to be liable for any
losses of the Master Servicer or any acts or omissions of the predecessor Master
Servicer hereunder, (c) to be obligated to make Advances if it is prohibited
from doing so by applicable law, (d) to be obligated to effectuate repurchases
or substitutions of the Mortgage Loans hereunder or (e) to be obligated to
perform any obligation of the Master Servicer under Section 3.20, Section 3.21
or Section 3.22 with respect to any period of time during which the Trustee was
not the Master Servicer. Subject to Section 8.05(b), as compensation therefor,
the Trustee shall be entitled to such compensation as the terminated Master
Servicer would have been entitled to hereunder if no such notice of termination
had been given, except for those amounts due to the Master Servicer as
reimbursement for Advances previously made or amounts previously expended and
are otherwise reimbursable hereunder. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee
may, if it shall be unwilling so to act, or shall, if it is legally unable so to
act, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any
established housing and home finance institution having a net worth of not less
than $10,000,000 as the successor to the terminated Master Servicer hereunder in
the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities
of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that any such institution
appointed as a successor Master Servicer shall not, as evidenced in writing by
each Rating Agency, adversely affect the then current rating of any Class of
Certificates immediately prior to the termination of the terminated Master
Servicer. The appointment of a successor Master Servicer shall not affect any
liability of the predecessor Master Servicer which may have arisen under this
113
Agreement prior to its termination as Master Servicer, nor shall any successor
Master Servicer be liable for any acts or omissions of the predecessor Master
Servicer or for any breach by the Master Servicer of any of its representations
or warranties contained herein or in any related document or agreement. Pending
appointment of a successor to a terminated Master Servicer hereunder, unless the
Trustee is prohibited by law from so acting, the Trustee shall act in such
capacity as provided above. The Trustee and such successor shall take such
action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any
such succession. All Master Servicing Transfer Costs shall be paid by the
predecessor Master Servicer (unless the predecessor Master Servicer is the
Trustee, in which event the previous Master Servicer shall be responsible for
payment of such costs and expenses so long as the transfer of servicing is not
the result of an Event of Default on the part of the Trustee in its capacity as
the predecessor Master Servicer) upon presentation of reasonable documentation
of such costs, and if such predecessor Master Servicer defaults in its
obligation to pay such costs, such costs shall be paid by the successor Master
Servicer or the Trustee (in which case the successor Master Servicer or the
Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor from the assets of the
Trust). (b) In connection with the appointment of a successor Master Servicer or
the assumption of the duties of the Master Servicer, as specified in Section
8.05(a), the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such
successor as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that such
compensation shall not exceed the compensation of the Master Servicer being
replaced.
(c) Any successor, including the Trustee, to the Master Servicer as master
servicer shall during the term of its service as master servicer maintain in
force (i) a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and omissions in the
performance of its obligations as master servicer hereunder and (ii) a fidelity
bond in respect of its officers, employees and agents to the same extent as the
Master Servicer is so required pursuant to Section 3.03.
Section 8.06 Notification to Certificateholders.
Upon any termination or appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer
pursuant to this Article VIII, the Securities Administrator shall give prompt
written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective addresses
appearing in the Certificate Register and to each Rating Agency.
ARTICLE IX
THE TRUSTEE AND THE SECURITIES ADMINISTRATOR
Section 9.01 Duties of Trustee and Securities Administrator.
(a) (i) The Trustee and the Securities Administrator, prior to the
occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiver of all Events
of Default which may have occurred, each undertake to perform such duties and
only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement as duties of
the Trustee and the Securities Administrator, respectively. In case an Event of
Default has occurred of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have
actual knowledge (which has not been cured or waived), 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 reasonably prudent
114
investor would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such
investor's own affairs. In case an Event of Default has occurred of which a
Responsible Officer of the Securities Administrator shall have actual knowledge
(which has not been cured or waived), the Securities Administrator 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 reasonably prudent
investor would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such
investor's own affairs.
The Trustee and the Securities Administrator, upon receipt of all
resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or
other instruments furnished to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator
which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of
this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they conform to the
requirements of this Agreement; provided, however, that neither the Trustee nor
the Securities Administrator shall be responsible for the accuracy of any
resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other
instrument furnished by the Master Servicer or the Depositor hereunder.
(b) No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the
Trustee or the Securities Administrator from liability for its own grossly
negligent action, its own grossly negligent failure to act or its own willful
misfeasance; provided, however, that:
(i) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, and after the
curing or waiver of all such Events of Default which may have occurred, the
duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator
shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the
Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall not be liable except for the
performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in
this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
Agreement against the Trustee and the Securities Administrator and, in the
absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee and the Securities
Administrator, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator 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 the Securities Administrator by the Depositor or the
Master Servicer and which on their face, do not contradict the requirements
of this Agreement;
(ii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for an error of
judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible
Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was
grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;
(iii) The Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall not be
personally liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to
be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of
Certificateholders as provided in Section 8.03;
(iv) The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any default or
an Event of Default under Section 8.01 unless a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee obtains actual knowledge of such default or Event of Default or any
Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives written notice of such default
115
or Event of Default at its Corporate Trust Office from the Master Servicer,
the Securities Administrator, the Depositor or any Certificateholder. The
Securities Administrator shall not be charged with knowledge of any default
or an Event of Default under Section 8.01 unless a Responsible Officer of
the Securities Administrator obtains actual knowledge of such failure or
event or any Responsible Officer of the Securities Administrator receives
written notice of such default or Event of Default at its Corporate Trust
Office from the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Depositor or any
Certificateholder; and
(v) No provision in this Agreement shall require the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur
any personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties as
Trustee or Securities Administrator hereunder, or in the exercise of any of
its rights or powers, if the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall
have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of funds or adequate
indemnity or security satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is
not reasonably assured to it and none of the provisions contained in this
Agreement shall in any event require the Securities Administrator to
perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the
obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement.
(c) Subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 9.01(c), the
Securities Administrator is permitted to utilize one or more Subcontractors to
perform certain of its obligations hereunder. The Securities Administrator shall
promptly upon request provide to the Depositor a written description (in form
and substance satisfactory to the Depositor) of the role and function of each
Subcontractor utilized by the Securities Administrator, specifying (i) the
identity of each such Subcontractor that is a Servicing Function Participant and
(ii) which elements of the Servicing Criteria will be addressed in Assessments
of Compliance provided by each Servicing Function Participant. As a condition to
the utilization by the Securities Administrator of any Servicing Function
Participant, the Securities Administrator shall cause any such Servicing
Function Participant for the benefit of the Depositor to comply with the
provisions of Section 3.20 of this Agreement to the same extent as if such
Servicing Function Participant were the Securities Administrator. The Securities
Administrator shall be responsible for obtaining from each such Servicing
Function Participant and delivering to the applicable Persons any Assessment of
Compliance and related Attestation Report required to be delivered by such
Servicing Function Participant under Section 3.20, in each case as and when
required to be delivered.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Securities Administrator engages a
Subcontractor in connection with the performance of any of its duties under this
Agreement, the Securities Administrator shall be responsible for determining
whether such Subcontractor is an Additional Servicer.
The Securities Administrator shall indemnify the Depositor, the Sponsor,
the Trustee, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and any of their respective
directors, officers, employees or agents 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 a breach of the
Securities Administrator's obligation set forth in the preceding paragraph or
116
the failure of the Securities Administrator to perform any of its obligations
under Section 3.20, Section 3.21, Section 3.22 or this Section 9.01(c).
Section 9.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee and the Securities
Administrator.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01:
(i) The Trustee and the Securities Administrator 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 the manner of obtaining consents and of evidencing the
authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be
subject to the reasonable regulations as the Trustee and the Securities
Administrator, as applicable, may prescribe;
(ii) The Trustee and the Securities Administrator may consult with
counsel and any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization
and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it
hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel;
(iii) Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be
under any obligation to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it
by this Agreement or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation
hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any
of the Certificateholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement,
unless such Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator, as the case may be, reasonable security or
indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities
which may be incurred therein or thereby; however, subject to Section
9.01(b)(v), nothing contained herein shall relieve the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default (which has not been cured or waived), to exercise such of the
rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the same
degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent investor would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such investor's
own affairs;
(iv) Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be
personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good
faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or
rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;
(v) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder and after
the curing or waiving of all Events of Default which may have occurred,
neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall 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 so to do by Holders of Certificates of any Class evidencing, as
to such Class, Percentage Interests, aggregating not less than 50%;
117
provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the
Trustee or the Securities Administrator of the costs, expenses or
liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation
is, in the opinion of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as the
case may be, not reasonably assured to the Trustee or the Securities
Administrator, as applicable, by the security afforded to it by the terms
of this Agreement, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as the case
may be, may require reasonable indemnity or security satisfactory to it
against such expense or liability or payment of such estimated expenses as
a condition to so proceeding;
(vi) The Trustee and the Securities Administrator may each execute any
of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either
directly or by or through agents, attorneys, accountants, custodian or
independent contractor; and
(vii) The right of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator to
perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Agreement shall not be
construed as a duty, and neither the Trustee nor the Securities
Administrator shall be answerable for other than its gross negligence or
willful misconduct in the performance of any such act.
Section 9.03 Neither Trustee nor Securities Administrator Liable for
Certificates or Mortgage Loans.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the
execution of, and the authentication on the Certificates) shall be taken as the
statements of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as applicable, and neither
the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator assumes responsibility for their
correctness. Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator makes any
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the
Certificates or any Mortgage Loans save that the Trustee and the Securities
Administrator represent that, assuming due execution and delivery by the other
parties hereto, this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered
by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable
against it in accordance with its terms, subject, as to enforcement of remedies,
to applicable insolvency, receivership, moratorium and other laws affecting the
rights of creditors generally, and to general principles of equity and the
discretion of the court (regardless of whether enforcement of such remedies is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall at any time have
any responsibility or liability for or with respect to the legality, validity
and enforceability of any Mortgage or any Mortgage Loan, or the perfection and
priority of any Mortgage or the maintenance of any such perfection and priority
or for or with respect to the sufficiency of the Trust or its ability to
generate the payments to be distributed to Certificateholders under this
Agreement, including, without limitation: the existence, condition and ownership
of any Mortgaged Property; the existence and enforceability of any hazard

omissions of the Trustee as the successor to the Master Servicer); the validity
of the assignment of any Mortgage Loan to the Trustee or of any intervening
assignment; the completeness of any Mortgage Loan; the performance or
enforcement of any Mortgage Loan (other than if the Trustee shall assume the

compliance by the Depositor or the Master Servicer with any warranty or
representation made under this Agreement or in any related document or the
accuracy of any such warranty or representation; any investment of monies by or
at the direction of the Master Servicer or any loss resulting therefrom, it
being understood that the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall remain
responsible for any Trust property that it may hold in its individual capacity;
the acts or omissions of any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer (other than
if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Master Servicer pursuant to
Section 8.05 and thereupon only for the acts or omissions of the Trustee as
successor to the Master Servicer), or any Mortgagor; any action of the Master
Servicer (other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Master
Servicer pursuant to Section 8.05 and thereupon only for the acts or omissions
of the Trustee as successor to the Master Servicer) taken in the name of the
Trust or the Securities Administrator; the failure of the Master Servicer to act
or perform any duties required of it as agent of the Trust or the Securities
Administrator hereunder; or any action by the Trustee or the Securities
Administrator taken at the instruction of the Master Servicer (other than if the
Trustee shall assume the duties of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 8.05
and thereupon only for the acts or omissions of the Trustee as successor to the
Master Servicer); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the
Trustee or the Securities Administrator of its obligation to perform its duties

Section 9.04 Trustee and Securities Administrator May Own Certificates.
Each of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator in their individual or
any other capacities may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the
same rights it would have if it were not Trustee or the Securities Administrator
and may otherwise deal with the Master Servicer or any of its affiliates with
the same right it would have if it were not the Trustee or the Securities
Administrator.
Section 9.05 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee and the Securities
Administrator.
The Trustee and the Securities Administrator hereunder shall at all times
be (a) an institution the deposits of which are fully insured by the FDIC and
(b) a corporation or banking association organized and doing business under the
laws of the United States of America or of any State, authorized under such laws
to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of not
less than $50,000,000.00 and subject to supervision or examination by Federal or
State authority and (c) with respect to every successor trustee or securities
administrator hereunder either an institution (i) the long-term unsecured debt
obligations of which are rated at least "A" by Fitch and S&P or (ii) whose
serving as Trustee or Securities Administrator hereunder would not result in the
lowering of the ratings originally assigned to any Class of Certificates. The
Trustee shall not be an affiliate of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any
Servicer. If such corporation or banking 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 9.05, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation or banking
association shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth
119
in its most recent report of condition so published. The principal office of the
Trustee and the Securities Administrator (other than the initial Trustee or
Securities Administrator) shall be in a state with respect to which an Opinion
of Counsel has been delivered to such Trustee at the time such Trustee or
Securities Administrator is appointed Trustee or Securities Administrator to the
effect that the Trust will not be a taxable entity under the laws of such state.
In case at any time the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall cease to
be eligible in accordance with the provision of this Section 9.05, the Trustee
or the Securities Administrator, as the case may be, shall resign immediately in
the manner and with the effect specified in Section 9.06.
The Securities Administrator (i) may not be an originator, the Master
Servicer, Servicer, the Depositor or an affiliate of the Depositor unless the
Securities Administrator is in an institutional trust department, (ii) must be
authorized to exercise corporate trust powers under the laws of its jurisdiction
of organization, and (iii) must be either an institution (a) the long-term
unsecured debt obligations of which are rated at least "A" by S&P and at least
"A" by Fitch and or (b) whose serving as Securities Administrator hereunder
would not result in the lowering of the ratings originally assigned to any Class
of Certificates. If no successor Securities Administrator shall have been
appointed and shall have accepted appointment within 60 days after the
Securities Administrator ceases to be the Securities Administrator pursuant to
this Section 9.05, then the Trustee shall perform the duties of the Securities
Administrator pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee
may, if it shall be unwilling so to act, or shall, if it is legally unable so to
act, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, an
institution qualified under Section 9.05 hereof as the successor to the
Securities Administrator hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the
responsibilities, duties or liabilities of a Securities Administrator hereunder;
provided, however, that any such institution appointed as successor Securities
Administrator shall not, as evidenced in writing by each Rating Agency,
adversely affect the then current rating of any Class of Certificates
immediately prior to the termination of the Securities Administrator. The
Trustee shall notify the Rating Agencies of any change of the Securities
Administrator.
Section 9.06 Resignation and Removal of Trustee and the Securities
Administrator.
The Trustee or the Securities Administrator may at any time resign and be
discharged from the trust hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the
Master Servicer and the Depositor and mailing a copy of such notice to all
Holders of record. The Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable,
shall also mail a copy of such notice of resignation to each Rating Agency. Upon
receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall use its best efforts
to promptly appoint a mutually acceptable successor Trustee or Securities
Administrator, as applicable, by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of
which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee or Securities
Administrator, as applicable, and one copy to the successor Trustee or
Securities Administrator, as applicable. If no successor Trustee or Securities
Administrator, as the case may be, shall have been so appointed and shall have
accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of
resignation, the resigning Trustee or Securities Administrator may petition any
court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or
Securities Administrator.
If at any time the Trustee or Securities Administrator shall cease to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.05 and shall fail to
resign after written request therefor by the Master Servicer, or if at any time
120
the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall become incapable of acting, or
shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator or of their respective property shall be appointed, or
any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or the Securities
Administrator or of their respective property or affairs for the purpose of
rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, or if at any time the Securities
Administrator has failed to duly perform, within the required time period, its
obligations under Section 3.20, Section 3.21 or Section 3.22, then the Master
Servicer may remove the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as the case may
be, and appoint a successor trustee or securities administrator by written
instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the
Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, so removed and one copy
to the successor.
The Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 50% of the Voting
Rights may at any time remove the Trustee or the Securities Administrator by
written instrument or instruments delivered to the Master Servicer and the
Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable; the Master Servicer
shall thereupon use their best efforts to appoint a mutually acceptable
successor Trustee or Securities Administrator, as the case may be, in accordance
with this Section 9.06.
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator
and appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this
Section 9.06 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the
successor Trustee or Securities Administrator, as the case may be, as provided
in Section 9.07.

Servicer and the Securities Administrator shall at all times be the same Person.
Section 9.07 Successor Trustee or Securities Administrator.
Any successor Trustee or successor Securities Administrator appointed as
provided in Section 9.06 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Master
Servicer and to its predecessor Trustee or Securities Administrator, as
applicable, an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon
the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee or Securities
Administrator shall become effective and such successor Trustee or Securities
Administrator, as the case may be, 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 or
Securities Administrator, as applicable, herein. The predecessor Trustee or
Securities Administrator shall duly assign, transfer, deliver and pay over to
the successor Trustee or Securities Administrator, as the case may be, the whole
of the Mortgage Files and related documents and statements held by it hereunder,
together with all instruments of transfer and assignment or other documents
properly executed as may be reasonably required to effect such transfer and such
of the records or copies thereof maintained by the predecessor Trustee or
Securities Administrator in the administration hereof as may be reasonably
requested by the successor Trustee or Securities Administrator, as the case may
be, and shall thereupon be discharged from all duties and responsibilities under
this Agreement; provided, however, that if the predecessor Trustee or Securities
Administrator has been removed pursuant to the third paragraph of Section 9.06,
121
all reasonable expenses of the predecessor Trustee or Securities Administrator
incurred in complying with this Section 9.07 shall be reimbursed by the Trust.
No successor Trustee or Securities Administrator shall accept appointment
as provided in this Section 9.07 unless at the time of such appointment such
successor Trustee or Securities Administrator, as the case may be, shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 9.05.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee or Securities
Administrator, as applicable, as provided in this Section 9.07, the Master
Servicer shall cooperate to mail notice of the succession of such Trustee or
Securities Administrator, as the case may be, hereunder to all Holders of
Certificates at their addresses as shown in the Certificate Register and to each
Rating Agency. If the Master Servicer fails to mail such notice within ten days
after acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee or Securities
Administrator, the successor Trustee or Securities Administrator, as the case
may be, shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Master
Servicer.
Section 9.08 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee or Securities
Administrator.
Any corporation or banking association into which either the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any corporation or banking association resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee or the Securities
Administrator shall be a party, or any corporation or banking association
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the
Trustee or the Securities Administrator, shall be the successor of the Trustee
or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, hereunder, if such corporation
or banking association is eligible under the provisions of Section 9.05, 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. In
connection with the succession to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator
under this Agreement by any Person (i) into which the Trustee or the Securities
Administrator may be merged or consolidated, or (ii) which may be appointed as a
successor to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator, as the case may be, 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 Securities Administrator to accurately and timely
report, pursuant to Section 3.22(d), 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 9.09 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
Notwithstanding any of the provisions hereof, at any time, for the purpose
of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any Mortgaged
Property may at the time be located or for any other reason, the Master 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
as co-trustee or separate trustee of all or any part of the Trust Estate, and to
vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to the Trust
Estate, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provision of this Section
9.09, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Master Servicer
and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If one or both of the
122
Master Servicer shall not have joined in such appointment within ten days after
the receipt by it of a request to do so, 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
9.05 and no notice to Holders of Certificates of the appointment of
co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under Section 9.07. The
Securities Administrator shall be responsible for the fees of any co-trustee or
separate trustee appointed hereunder.
In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee pursuant
to this Section 9.09, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or
imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or
performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly, except
to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act
or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the
Master Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to
perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and
obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust Estate or any portion
thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such
separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the Trustee. No trustee
hereunder shall be held personally liable by reason of any act or omission of
any other trustee hereunder; provided, however, that no appointment of a
co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall relieve the Trustee of its
obligations hereunder.
Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed
to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as
effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any
separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions
of this Article IX. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of
the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in
its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as
may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement,
specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct
of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every
such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee.
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute the
Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to the
extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this
Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee
shall become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, or shall be adjudged a
bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of its property shall be appointed, or any
public officer shall take charge or control of such trustee or co-trustee or of
its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, 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 9.10 Authenticating Agents.
The Securities Administrator may appoint one or more authenticating agents
("Authenticating Agents") that shall be authorized to act on behalf of the
Securities Administrator in authenticating or countersigning Certificates.
Initially, the Authenticating Agent shall be Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. Wherever
reference is made in this Agreement to the authentication or countersigning of
123
Certificates by the Securities Administrator or the Securities Administrator's
certificate of authentication or countersigning, such reference shall be deemed
to include authentication or countersigning on behalf of the Securities
Administrator by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication or
countersignature executed on behalf of the Securities Administrator by an
Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent must be acceptable to the Master
Servicer and must be a corporation or banking association organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States of America or of any State, having
a place of business in New York, New York, having a combined capital and surplus
of at least $15,000,000, authorized under such laws to do a trust business and
subject to supervision or examination by Federal or State authorities.

may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any
corporation or banking association resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any
corporation or banking association succeeding to the corporate agency business
of any Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be the Authenticating Agent
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
the Securities Administrator or the Authenticating Agent.
Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of
resignation to the Securities Administrator and to the Master Servicer. The
Securities Administrator may at any time terminate the agency of any
Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such
Authenticating Agent and to the Master Servicer. Upon receiving a notice of
resignation or upon such a termination, or in case, at any time any
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 9.10, the Securities Administrator may appoint a
successor Authenticating Agent, shall give written notice of such appointment to
the Master Servicer and shall mail notice of such appointment to all
Certificateholders. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its
appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties
and responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if
originally named as Authenticating Agent.
Section 9.11 Securities Administrator's Fees and Expenses and Trustee's
Fees and Expenses.
The Trustee, as compensation for its services hereunder, shall be entitled
to a fee in an amount agreed upon between the Trustee and the Securities
Administrator, payable by the Securities Administrator out of its own funds and
not out of any funds of the Trust Estate. In addition to the Securities
Administration Fee, the Securities Administrator shall be entitled to investment
income from amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account as compensation for
its services hereunder. The Trustee and the Securities Administrator, as the
case may be, and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator, as the case may be, shall be indemnified and held
harmless by the Trust against any claims, damage, loss, liability or expense
(including reasonable attorney's fees) (a) incurred in connection with or
arising from or relating to (i) this Agreement, (ii) the Certificates, or (iii)
the performance of any of the Trustee's or Securities Administrator's, as the
case may be, duties hereunder, other than any claims, damage, loss, liability or
expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence
in the performance of any of the Trustee's or Securities Administrator's, as the
124
case may be, duties hereunder, (b) resulting from any tax or information return
which was prepared by, or should have been prepared by, the Master Servicer and
(c) arising out of the transfer of any ERISA Restricted Certificate or the
Residual Certificate not in compliance with ERISA, the Code or Similar Law.
Without limiting the foregoing, except as otherwise agreed upon in writing by
the Depositor and the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, and except for
any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from the Trustee's or the
Securities Administrator's gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct,
the Trust shall reimburse the Trustee and the Securities Administrator for all
reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee
or the Securities Administrator in accordance with any of the provisions of this
Agreement to the extent permitted by Treasury Regulations Section
1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii) and (iii). Except as otherwise provided herein, neither the
Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be entitled to payment or
reimbursement for any routine ongoing expenses incurred by the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator, as applicable, in the ordinary course of its duties as
Trustee or Securities Administrator, Certificate Registrar or Paying Agent
hereunder or for any other expenses. The provisions of this Section 9.11 shall
survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the
Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, hereunder.
Section 9.12 Appointment of Custodian.
The Trustee may at any time on or after the Closing Date, with the consent
of the Depositor and the Master Servicer, appoint one or more Custodians to hold
all or a portion of the Mortgage Files as agent for the Trustee, by entering
into a custodial agreement in a form acceptable to the Depositor and the Master
Servicer. Subject to this Article IX, the Trustee agrees to enforce the terms
and provisions thereof against the Custodian for the benefit of the
Certificateholders. Each Custodian shall be a depository institution subject to
supervision by federal or state authority, shall have a combined capital and
surplus of at least $10,000,000 and shall be qualified to do business in the
jurisdiction in which it holds any Mortgage File.
Each Custodian shall indemnify the Depositor, the Sponsor, the Trustee, the

directors, officers, employees or agents 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 reasonable
costs, fees and expenses that any of them may sustain in any way related to the
failure of a Custodian to perform any of its obligations under Section 3.21.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall a Custodian be liable for any
consequential, indirect or punitive damages pursuant to this Section 9.12.
Section 9.13 Paying Agents.
The Securities Administrator may appoint one or more Paying Agents (each, a
"Paying Agent") which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Securities
Administrator in making withdrawals from the Certificate Account and
distributions to Certificateholders as provided in Section 3.09 and Section
5.02. Wherever reference is made in this Agreement to the withdrawal from the
Certificate Account by the Securities Administrator, such reference shall be
deemed to include such a withdrawal on behalf of the Securities Administrator by
a Paying Agent. Initially, the Paying Agent shall be Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A.
125
Whenever reference is made in this Agreement to a distribution by the Securities
Administrator or the furnishing of a statement by the Securities Administrator,
such reference shall be deemed to include such a distribution or furnishing on
behalf of the Securities Administrator by a Paying Agent. Each Paying Agent
shall provide to the Securities Administrator such information concerning the
Certificate Account as the Securities Administrator shall request from time to
time. Each Paying Agent must be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer and
must be a corporation or banking association organized and doing business under
the laws of the United States of America or of any state, having (except in the
case of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator) a principal office and

and expenses (but not including any indemnity payments) of a Paying Agent
appointed pursuant to this Agreement shall be payable by the Securities
Administrator out of its own funds and not out of any funds in the Trust Estate.
Any corporation into which any Paying Agent may be merged or converted or
with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which any Paying Agent shall be a party, or any
corporation succeeding to the corporate agency business of any Paying Agent,
shall continue to be the Paying Agent provided that such corporation after the
consummation of such merger, conversion, consolidation or succession meets the
eligibility requirements of this Section 9.13.
Any Paying Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of
resignation to the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and to the Master
Servicer; provided that the Paying Agent has returned to the Certificate Account
or otherwise accounted, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Securities
Administrator, for all amounts it has withdrawn from the Certificate Account.
The Securities Administrator may, upon prior written approval of the Master
Servicer, at any time terminate the agency of any Paying Agent by giving written
notice of termination to such Paying Agent and to the Master Servicer. Upon
receiving a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any
time any Paying Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of the first paragraph of this Section 9.13, the Securities
Administrator may appoint, upon prior written approval of the Master Servicer, a
successor Paying Agent, shall give written notice of such appointment to the
Master Servicer and shall mail notice of such appointment to all
Certificateholders. Any successor Paying Agent upon acceptance of its
appointment hereunder shall become vested with all rights, powers, duties and
responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally
named as Paying Agent. The Securities Administrator shall remain liable for any
duties and obligations assumed by its appointed Paying Agent.
Section 9.14 Limitation of Liability.

individual capacity but solely as Securities Administrator of the Trust, 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

personal undertaking or agreement by the Securities Administrator but is made
and intended for the purpose of binding only the Trust.

Depositor hereunder shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee, in its
discretion, may proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the
Holders of Certificates under this Agreement by a suit, action or proceeding in
equity or at law or otherwise, whether for the specific performance of any
covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or in aid of the execution of
any power granted in this Agreement or for the enforcement of any other legal,

ARTICLE X
TERMINATION
Section 10.01 Termination upon Purchase or Liquidation of All Mortgage
Loans.
Subject to Section 10.02, the respective obligations and responsibilities
of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the
Trustee created hereby (other than the obligation of the Securities
Administrator to make certain payments to Certificateholders after the Final
Distribution Date and to send certain notices as hereinafter set forth and the
obligations of the Securities Administrator pursuant to Sections 5.04(b) and
5.05(b)) shall terminate upon the last action required to be taken by the
127
Securities Administrator on the Final Distribution Date pursuant to this Article
X following the earlier of (a) the purchase by the Master Servicer of all of the
Mortgage Loans and all related REO Property remaining in the Trust Estate at a
price equal to the sum of (x) 100% of the unpaid principal balance of each
Mortgage Loan (other than any Mortgage Loan as to which REO Property has been
acquired and whose fair market value is included pursuant to clause (y) below),
(y) the fair market value of such REO Property plus one month's interest at the
related Mortgage Interest Rate on the unpaid principal balance of each Mortgage
Loan (including any Mortgage Loan as to which REO Property has been acquired)
and (z) any Reimbursement Amount owed to the Trust pursuant to Section 2.02 or
(b) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto)
of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Estate and the disposition of
all REO Property.
The Master Servicer may not exercise its purchase option for the Mortgage
Loans until all Reimbursement Amounts have been paid. The Securities
Administrator shall notify the Sponsor, upon notice of the Master Servicer's
intent to exercise its purchase option of any Reimbursement Amount outstanding.
Regardless of the foregoing, in no event shall the Trust created hereby
continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor
of the descendants of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of the United
States to the Court of St. Xxxxx, living on the date hereof.
The right of the Master Servicer to exercise its purchase option with
respect to the Mortgage Loans is conditioned upon (A) the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of all the Mortgage Loans being less than 10% of the aggregate
unpaid principal balance of all the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date and
(B) the purchase price calculated pursuant to clause (a) of the first paragraph
of this Section 10.01 being less than or equal to the aggregate fair market
value of the Mortgage Loans (other than any Mortgage Loan as to which REO
Property has been acquired) and the related REO Properties; provided, however,
that this clause (B) shall not apply to any purchase by the Master Servicer if,
at the time of the purchase, the Master Servicer is no longer subject to
regulation by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the FDIC, the
Federal Reserve or the OTS. Fair market value for purposes of this paragraph and
the first paragraph of this Section 10.01 will be determined by the Master
Servicer as of the close of business on the third Business Day next preceding
the date upon which notice of any such termination is furnished to
Certificateholders pursuant to this Article X. If such right is exercised, the
Trustee (or Custodian on the Trustee's behalf) shall, promptly following payment
of the purchase price, release to the Master Servicer or its designee the
Mortgage Files pertaining to the Mortgage Loans being purchased. The Master
Servicer's right, title and interest in and to such purchased Mortgage Loans and
the related Mortgage Files shall be subject to the servicing rights of the
Servicers pursuant to the related Servicing Agreements.
Notice of the exercise of any purchase option pursuant to this Section
10.01 and notice of any termination of the Trust or any portion of the Trust,
specifying the Final Distribution Date upon which the Certificateholders may
surrender their Certificates to the Securities Administrator for payment of the
final distribution and for cancellation, shall be given promptly by the
Securities Administrator by letter to the Certificateholders mailed not earlier
than the 10th day and not later than the 15th day of the month next preceding
the month of such final distribution specifying (1) the Final Distribution Date
128
upon which final payment of the Certificates will be made upon presentation and
surrender of such Certificates at the office or agency of the Securities
Administrator therein designated, (2) the amount of any such final payment and
(3) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not
applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the
Certificates at the office or agency of the Securities Administrator therein
specified.
Upon the exercise of its purchase option, the Master Servicer shall remit
to the Securities Administrator for deposit to the Certificate Account on or
before the Final Distribution Date in immediately available funds an amount
equal to the amount necessary to make the amount, if any, on deposit in the
Certificate Account on such Final Distribution Date equal to the purchase price
for the related assets of the Trust Estate computed as above provided together
with a statement as to the amount to be distributed on each Class of
Certificates pursuant to the next succeeding paragraph.
Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Securities
Administrator shall cause to be distributed to Certificateholders of each Class,
in the order set forth in Section 5.02 hereof, on the Final Distribution Date
and in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests, with respect to
Certificateholders of the same Class, all cash on hand with respect to the
related REMICs (other than the amounts retained to meet claims). An amount shall
be distributed in respect of interest and principal to the Uncertificated
Lower-Tier Interests and the Uncertificated Middle-Tier Interests, as
applicable, in the same manner as principal and interest are distributed to such
Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests and Uncertificated Middle-Tier Interests,
respectively, as provided in Section 5.02.
If all of the Certificateholders do not surrender their Certificates for
final payment and cancellation on or before the Final Distribution Date, the
Securities Administrator shall on such date cause all funds in the Certificate
Account not distributed in final distribution to such Certificateholders of such
Group to continue to be held by the Securities Administrator in an Eligible
Account for the benefit of such Certificateholders and the Securities
Administrator shall give a second written notice to the remaining
Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive
a final distribution with respect thereto. If within one (1) year after the
second notice all the Certificates shall not have been surrendered for
cancellation, the Securities Administrator 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 on deposit in such Eligible Account.
Section 10.02 Additional Termination Requirements.
(a) (i) If the Master Servicer exercises its purchase option as provided in
Section 10.01, the REMICs shall be terminated in accordance with the following
additional requirements, unless the Securities Administrator and the Trustee
have received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the failure of the Trust
to comply with the requirements of this Section 10.02 will not (i) result in the
imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" or "prohibited contributions"
in respect of any REMIC created hereunder as defined in the REMIC Provisions, or
(ii) cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time
that any related Certificates are outstanding:
129
(ii) within 90 days prior to the Final Distribution Date set forth in the
notice given by the Securities Administrator under Section 10.01, the Securities
Administrator shall sell the Mortgage Loans and the REO Properties to the Master
Servicer for cash;
(iii) the notice given by the Securities Administrator pursuant to Section
10.01 shall provide that such notice constitutes adoption of a plan of complete
liquidation of the REMICs as of the date of such notice (or, if earlier, the
date on which such notice was mailed to Certificateholders). The Securities
Administrator shall also ensure that such date is specified in the final tax
return of the REMICs; and
(iv) the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Middle-Tier REMIC will be terminated on
the same date that the Lower-Tier REMIC is terminated.
(b) By its acceptance of the Residual Certificate, the Holder thereof
hereby agrees to take such other action in connection with such plan of complete
liquidation as may be reasonably requested by the Depositor, the Trustee or the
Securities Administrator and if such action is not requested, is deemed to adopt
such a plan of complete liquidation when the Mortgage Loans are purchased
pursuant to Section 10.01.
ARTICLE XI
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Section 11.01 Amendment.
This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee without the
consent of any of the Certificateholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or mistake,
(ii) to correct or supplement any provisions herein or therein which may be
inconsistent with any other provisions of this Agreement, any amendment to this
Agreement or the related Prospectus Supplement, (iii) to modify, eliminate or
add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary to maintain
the qualification of any REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC or any Exchangeable
Certificates Grantor Trust as a grantor trust within the meaning of the Code and
related regulations at all times that any related Certificates are outstanding
or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any tax on any REMIC or
any Exchangeable Certificates Grantor Trust created hereunder pursuant to the
Code that would be a claim against the Trust Estate, provided that (a) the
Trustee and the Securities Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such
qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any such tax
and (b) such action shall not, as evidenced by such Opinion of Counsel,
adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder,
(iv) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits into the Certificate Account
provided that (a) such change shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel,
adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder
and (b) such change shall not adversely affect the then-current rating of the
Certificates as evidenced by a letter from each Rating Agency rating such
Certificates to such effect and (v) to make any other provisions with respect to
matters or questions arising under this Agreement which shall not be materially
inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, provided that such action
130
shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any
material respect the interests of any Certificateholder, provided that the
amendment shall not be deemed to adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of the Certificateholders and no Opinion of Counsel to that effect
shall be required 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. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement pursuant to clause
(i) through (v) above unless it shall have first received an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that such amendment shall not cause the imposition of any tax on
any REMIC created hereunder, any Exchangeable Certificates Grantor Trust or the
Certificateholders or cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a
REMIC or cause any Exchangeable Certificates Grantor Trust to fail to qualify as
a grantor trust within the meaning of the Code and related regulations at any
time that any Certificates are outstanding.
This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee, and the Holders
of Certificates of each Class of Certificates which is affected by such
amendment, evidencing, as to each such Class of Certificates, Percentage
Interests aggregating not less than 66-2/3%, 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 such
Certificates; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (A) reduce in any
manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, collections of payments on
Mortgage Loans or distributions which are required to be made on any Certificate
without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate or (B) reduce the
aforesaid percentage required to consent to any such amendment, without the
consent of the Holders of all Certificates then Outstanding.
Prior to the solicitation of consent of Certificateholders in connection
with any such amendment, the party seeking such amendment shall furnish the
Trustee and the Securities Administrator with an Opinion of Counsel stating that
such amendment would not adversely affect the qualification of any REMIC created
hereunder as a REMIC or of any Exchangeable Certificates Grantor Trust as a
grantor trust within the meaning of the Code and related regulations or result
in the imposition of any tax on any REMIC or any Exchangeable Certificates
Grantor Trust created hereunder and notice of the conclusion expressed in such
Opinion of Counsel shall be included with any such solicitation.
Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent the
Securities Administrator shall furnish written notification of the substance of
or a copy of such amendment to each Certificateholder and to each Rating Agency.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this
Section 11.01 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it
shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The
manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the
execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable
requirements as the Securities Administrator may prescribe.
Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, each of the
Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall receive and be entitled to
131
conclusively rely on any Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the Person
seeking such amendment) stating that such amendment is authorized and permitted
by this Agreement. The Trustee and the Securities Administrator may, but shall
not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects the Trustee's
or the Securities Administrator's own rights, duties or immunities under this
Agreement.
Section 11.02 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 properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and
in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation
to be effected by the Securities Administrator at its expense at the direction
of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 50% of all Voting Rights,
but only upon delivery to the Securities Administrator at the expense of the
requesting Certificateholders of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such
recordation materially and beneficially affects the interests of
Certificateholders.

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 11.03 Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders.

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

constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members of an
association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under any liability to any third
person by reason of any action taken by the parties to this Agreement pursuant
to any provision hereof.
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 Securities Administrator a written
notice of default and of the continuance thereof, as provided herein, and unless
also the Holders of Certificates evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating not
less than 25% of each Class of Certificates affected thereby shall have made
written request upon the Securities Administrator to institute such action, suit
or proceeding in its own name as Securities Administrator hereunder and shall
have offered to the Securities Administrator such reasonable indemnity as it may
require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or
thereby, and the Securities Administrator, for 60 days after its receipt of such
notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to
132
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 Securities Administrator, 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 equal, ratable and common benefit of all
Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this
Section 11.03, each and every Certificateholder and the Securities Administrator
shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the

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 11.07 Certificates Nonassessable and Fully Paid.
It is the intention of the Securities Administrator that Certificateholders
shall not be personally liable for obligations of the Trust Estate, that the
beneficial ownership interests represented by the Certificates shall be
nonassessable for any losses or expenses of the Trust Estate or for any reason
whatsoever, and that Certificates upon execution, authentication and delivery
thereof by the Securities Administrator pursuant to Section 6.01 are and shall
be deemed fully paid.
Section 11.08 Access to List of Certificateholders.
The Certificate Registrar will furnish or cause to be furnished to the
Trustee and the Securities Administrator, within fifteen (15) days after the
receipt of a request by the Trustee and/or the Securities Administrator in
writing, a list, in such form as the Trustee and/or the Securities Administrator
may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders as
of the most recent Record Date for payment of distributions to
Certificateholders.
If three or more Certificateholders apply in writing to the Securities
Administrator, and such application states that the applicants desire to
communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under
this Agreement or under the Certificates and is accompanied by a copy of the
communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Securities
Administrator shall, within five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such
application, afford such applicants access during normal business hours to the
most recent list of Certificateholders held by the Securities Administrator. If
such a list is as of a date more than 90 days prior to the date of receipt of
such applicants' request, the Securities Administrator shall promptly request
from the Certificate Registrar a current list as provided above, and shall
afford such applicants access to such list promptly upon receipt.
134
Every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding such list, agrees with
the Certificate Registrar and the Securities Administrator that neither the
Certificate Registrar nor the Securities Administrator shall be held accountable

addresses of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from
which such information was derived.
Section 11.09 Recharacterization.
The parties to this Agreement intend the conveyance by the Depositor to the

the related Mortgage Files, including all interest and principal received on or
with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than payments of principal and
interest due and payable on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date)
and the Depositor's rights under the BANA Servicing Agreement and the Mortgage
Loan Purchase Agreement, including the rights of the Depositor as assignee of
the Sponsor with respect to the Sponsor's rights under the Servicing Agreements
(other than the BANA Servicing Agreement) pursuant to this Agreement to
constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to
the extent that such conveyance is held not to constitute a sale under
applicable law, it is intended that this Agreement shall constitute a security
agreement under applicable law and that the Depositor shall be deemed to have
granted to the Trustee a first priority security interest in all of the
Depositor's right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans.
Section 11.10 Regulation AB Compliance; Intent of the Parties;
Reasonableness.
The parties hereto acknowledge that interpretations of the requirements of

asset-backed securities markets, advice of counsel, or otherwise, and agree to
use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with requests made by the
Depositor in good faith for delivery of information under these provisions on
the basis of evolving interpretations of Regulation AB. In connection with the
Trust, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee and the
Custodian shall cooperate fully with the Depositor to deliver to the Depositor
(including its assignees or designees), any and all statements, reports,
certifications, records and any other information available to such party and
reasonably necessary in the good faith determination of the Depositor to permit
the Depositor to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB, together with such
disclosures relating to the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the
Trustee and the Custodian, as applicable, reasonably believed by the Depositor
to be necessary in order to effect such compliance.
Section 11.11 Third Party Beneficiary.
Nothing in this Agreement or in the Certificates, expressed or implied,
shall give to any Person, other than the Certificateholders, the parties hereto
and their successors hereunder, any benefit or any legal or equitable right,
remedy or claim under this Agreement.
135

Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as Banc of America Funding Corporation Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, of the Series specified on the face hereof (collectively, the
"Certificates"), and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust
created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that
it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the Certificate Account for
payment hereunder and that the Securities Administrator is not liable to the
Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, subject to any liability under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.
This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the
interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties
evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Securities
Administrator.
Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, a
distribution will be made on the 20th day of each calendar month (or, if such
day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day) (each, a "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 required pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.
On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall distribute
out of the Certificate Account to each Certificateholder of record on the
related Record Date (other than respecting the final distribution) (a) by check
mailed to such Certificateholder entitled to receive a distribution on such
Distribution Date at the address appearing in the Certificate Register, or (b)
upon written request by the Holder of a Certificate (other than a Residual
Certificate), by wire transfer or by such other means of payment as such
Certificateholder and the Securities Administrator shall agree upon, such
Certificateholder's Percentage Interest in the amount to which the related Class
of Certificates is entitled in accordance with the priorities set forth in
Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The final distribution on
each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and
surrender of such Certificate to the Securities Administrator as contemplated by
Section 10.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits, with certain exceptions
therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Securities Administrator and the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement at any time by the
C-1
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee
with the consent of the Holders of Certificates affected by such amendment
evidencing the requisite Percentage Interest, as provided in the Pooling and
Servicing 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 Pooling and Servicing 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 Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable
in the Certificate Register of the Securities Administrator upon surrender of
this Certificate for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of
the Securities Administrator accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in
form satisfactory to the Securities Administrator and the Certificate Registrar
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 will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without
coupons in denominations specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing 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.
The Exchange REMIC and Exchangeable Certificates are also exchangeable as
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange (other than for an exchange of Exchangeable REMIC or Exchangeable
Certificates), but the Securities Administrator may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection
therewith.
The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, the
Securities Administrator and the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, the Securities Administrator or the
Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the
owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Certificate Registrar, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or any such
agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
On any Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of
the Mortgage Loans is less than 10% of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of
the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, the Master Servicer has the option to
purchase such Mortgage Loans and related REO Properties under the conditions set
forth in Section 10.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that
no such terminations occur, the obligations and responsibilities created by the
C-2
Pooling and Servicing Agreement will terminate upon the later of the maturity or
other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage
Loan remaining in the Trust or the disposition of all property in respect
thereof and the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be
distributed pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event shall
the Trust created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement continue beyond the
expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of
Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St.

Any term used herein that is defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
shall have the meaning assigned in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and
nothing herein shall be deemed inconsistent with that meaning.

___ Other. (Please supply a brief description of the entity and a
cross-reference to the paragraph and subparagraph under subsection

3. The term "securities" as used herein does not include (i) securities of
issuers that are affiliated with the Transferee, (ii) securities that are part

value, and no current information with respect to the cost of those securities
has been published, in which case the securities were valued at market. Further,
G-2A-5
in determining such aggregate amount, the Transferee may have included
securities owned by subsidiaries of the Transferee, but only if such

is not itself a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.

____ ____ Will the Transferee be purchasing the
Yes No Transferred only for the Transferee's own
account?
6. If the answer to the foregoing question is "no," then in each case where
the Transferee is purchasing for an account other than its own, such account
belongs to a third party that is itself a "qualified institutional buyer" within
the meaning of Rule 144A, and the "qualified institutional buyer" status of such
third party has been established by the Transferee through one or more of the
appropriate methods contemplated by Rule 144A.
7. The Transferee will notify each of the parties to which this
certification is made of any changes in the information and conclusions herein.
Until such notice is given, the Transferee's purchase of the Transferred

loan as provided above, the Transferee agrees that it will furnish to such
parties any updated annual financial statements that become available on or
before the date of such purchase, promptly after they become available.

more registered investment companies (or series thereof) that have the same

adviser is a majority owned subsidiary of the other).
G-2A-7
4. The term "securities" as used herein does not include (i) securities of
issuers that are affiliated with the Transferee or are part of the Transferee's
Family of Investment Companies, (ii) bank deposit notes and certificates of
deposit, (iii) loan participations, (iv) repurchase agreements, (v) securities
owned but subject to a repurchase agreement and (vi) currency, interest rate and
commodity swaps. For purposes of determining the aggregate amount of securities
owned and/or invested on a discretionary basis by the Transferee, or owned by

5. The Transferee is familiar with Rule 144A and understands that the

____ ____ Will the Transferee be purchasing the
Yes No Transferred Certificates only for the
Transferee's own account?
6. If the answer to the foregoing question is "no," then in each case where
the Transferee is purchasing for an account other than its own, such account
belongs to a third party that is itself a "qualified institutional buyer" within
the meaning of Rule 144A, and the "qualified institutional buyer" status of such
third party has been established by the Transferee through one or more of the
appropriate methods contemplated by Rule 144A.
7. The undersigned will notify the parties to which this certification is
made of any changes in the information and conclusions herein. Until such
notice, the Transferee's purchase of the Transferred Certificates will
constitute a reaffirmation of this certification by the undersigned as of the
date of such purchase.

Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A., as Securities Administrator and Master Servicer, and
U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee. All capitalized terms used herein
and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings set forth in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Transferor hereby certifies, represents and
warrants to you, as Securities Administrator, that:
1. Transferee is acquiring the Transferred Certificates for its own account
for investment and not with a view to or for sale or transfer in connection with

2. Transferee understands that (a) the Transferred Certificates have not
been and will not be registered under the 1933 Act or registered or qualified
under any applicable state securities laws, (b) neither the Depositor nor the
Securities Administrator is obligated so to register or qualify the Transferred

issued in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof may be resold or transferred
unless such resale or transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of
the 1933 Act and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance
with the 1933 Act and laws, in which case (i) unless the transfer is made in
reliance on Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, the Securities Administrator or the
G-2B-1
Depositor may require a written Opinion of Counsel (which may be in-house
counsel) acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Securities Administrator and the Depositor that such transfer may be made
pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable exemption and the basis
therefor, from the 1933 Act and such laws or is being made pursuant to the 1933
Act and such laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the
Securities Administrator or the Depositor and (ii) the Securities Administrator
shall require a certificate from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such
transfer substantially in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement as Exhibit G-1 and a certificate from such Certificateholder's
prospective transferee substantially in the form attached to the Pooling and

Depositor; provided that the foregoing requirements under clauses (i) and (ii)

Depositor, the Seller, their affiliates or both.
3. The Transferee understands that it may not sell or otherwise transfer
the Transferred Certificates, any security issued in exchange therefor or in
lieu thereof or any interest in the foregoing except in compliance with the
provisions of Section 6.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, which
provisions it has carefully reviewed, and that the Transferred Certificates will

in the Agreement. The Transferee has authorized the undersigned to make this
affidavit on behalf of the Transferee.
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 the Residual
Certificate either (i) for its own account or (ii) as nominee, trustee or agent
for another Person who is a Permitted Transferee and has attached hereto an
affidavit from such Person in substantially the same form as this affidavit. 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 Residual Certificate to Persons that are not

such transfer is through an agent (which includes a broker, nominee or
middleman) for a Person that is not a 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

understands that, other than in the case of an "electing large partnership"
under Section 775 of the Code, such tax will not be imposed for any period with
respect to which the record Holder furnishes to the pass-through entity an

mandatory sales. The Transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and to abide by
the provisions of Section 6.02 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.

this Affidavit from any Person to whom the Transferee attempts to transfer the
Residual 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 the Residual Certificate or cause the Residual Certificate to be

Transferee. In connection with any such Transfer by the Transferee, the
Transferee agrees to deliver to the Securities Administrator a certificate
substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit T to the Agreement (a "Transferor
Certificate") to the effect that such Transferee has no actual knowledge that
the Person to which the Transfer is to be made is not a Permitted Transferee and
no reason to believe that the statements in such Person's transfer affidavit are
false.
7. The Transferee historically has paid its debts as they have become due,
and it intends to do so in the future.
8. 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 Residual

that such transfer is in accordance with the requirements of the Code and the
regulations promulgated thereunder and that such transfer of the Residual
Certificate will not be disregarded for federal income tax purposes..
11. The Transferee is aware that the Residual Certificate may be a
"noneconomic residual interest" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
promulgated pursuant to the Code and that the transferor of a noneconomic
I-2
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.
12. 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.
13. If the Transferee is purchasing the Residual Certificate in a transfer
intended to meet the safe harbor provisions of Treasury Regulations Sections
1.860E-1(c), the Transferee has executed and attached Attachment A hereto.
14. The Transferee is not an employee benefit plan or arrangement,
including an individual retirement account, subject to ERISA, the Code or any
federal, state or local law which is similar to ERISA or the Code, and the
Transferee is not acting on behalf of, or using assets of, such a plan or
