account
3
referred to herein as the "Spread Account." The Spread Account is separate from
the Trust and any amount on deposit therein will not constitute a part of the
property of the Trust. For all tax purposes, the Spread Account and all amounts
deposited therein and investments thereof are owned by the Pledgor, and all
assets transferred to the Spread Account are taxable to the Pledgor. The Spread
Account shall be maintained by the Collateral Agent at all times separate and
apart from any other account of the Pledgor or the Trust, at an Eligible
Institution or in an account otherwise acceptable to Fitch, Xxxxx'x and Standard
& Poor's. All amounts paid to the Pledgor under Section 8.03(a)(18) of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall be deposited into the Spread Account.
Amounts shall be withdrawn from the Spread Account only in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 3 and Section 8.06 of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement. No passbook, certificate of deposit or other similar instrument
evidencing the Spread Account shall be issued, and all contracts, receipts and
other papers governing or evidencing the Spread Account or any of the Collateral
shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent. On termination of this Agreement, as
provided in Section 3(f), any amount remaining in the Spread Account shall be
released to the Pledgor.
b. Pledge of Spread Account. The Pledgor hereby pledges, assigns,
hypothecates, transfers and delivers to the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of
the Trustee and the Certificateholders), and hereby grants the Collateral Agent
(for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders) a security interest
in, all of the Pledgor's right, title, interest and power, free and clear of any
other interest, in, to and with respect to, the Spread Account up to the Spread
Account Required Amount, the amounts deposited therein, the investments thereof
and all proceeds of the liquidation of any investment thereof. Such grant is
made to secure the payment, on each Distribution Date, of any Shortfall on such
Distribution Date, subject to the limit of the amount available in the Spread
Account plus any subsequent deposits into the Spread Account.
The Collateral Agent and the Trustee acknowledge and accept the grant
of the security interest in the Spread Account for the benefit of the
Certificateholders under this Section 3(b) in accordance with the terms hereof.
The Pledgor and the Collateral Agent shall maintain, at all times
during the term of this Agreement, the lien on, or security interest in, the
Spread Account as a valid and perfected security interest of first priority
under the Uniform Commercial Code (or other applicable law) as in effect from
time to time in the state where the Spread Account is located in order to secure
the full and timely performance of the obligations of the Pledgor pursuant to
this Agreement. Amounts properly withdrawn by the Collateral Agent and paid into
the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3(d) or properly withdrawn by the
Collateral Agent and paid to the Pledgor pursuant to Section 3(e) shall be
deemed released from the provisions of
4
this Section 3(b) and the security interest established by this Section 3(b),
and the Pledgor shall in no event be required to refund any such distributed
amount.
c. Investment of Spread Account. The Collateral Agent shall at the
written direction of the Pledgor invest the funds in the Spread Account in
Spread Account Eligible Investments. Funds in the Spread Account shall be
invested in investments that mature on or before the Business Day prior to each
Distribution Date. Upon any such investment, the Collateral Agent shall (i)
make an appropriate notation of the Trustee's security interest in such Spread
Account Eligible Investment by book entry or otherwise and (ii) send the Trustee
a written confirmation of its security interest in such Spread Account Eligible
Investment. All income and gain realized from any such investments as well as
any interest earned on deposits in the Spread Account shall be deposited and
retained in the Spread Account. Losses, if any, realized on amounts in the
Spread Account invested pursuant to this paragraph shall first be credited
against undistributed investment earnings on amounts in the Spread Account
invested pursuant to this paragraph, and shall thereafter be deemed to reduce
the amount on deposit in the Spread Account. The Pledgor and the Collateral
Agent shall not be liable for the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any
investment, or lack of investment, of funds held in the Spread Account. All
income or loss on funds held in the Spread Account shall be taxable to the
Pledgor.
d. Payment of Shortfall. If the Servicer informs the Pledgor and
the Trustee of the existence of a Shortfall, the Pledgor, subject to the limit
of the amount available in the Spread Account, shall direct the Collateral Agent
to, and the Collateral Agent shall, transfer the amount of the Shortfall from
the Spread Account to the Collection Account or, if the Pledgor shall not have
given such directions by the Business Day prior to the Distribution Date, the
Trustee shall instruct the Collateral Agent to, and the Collateral Agent shall,
transfer the cash pledged by the Pledgor under this Agreement and deposited in
the Spread Account to the Collection Account and apply it to the payment of the
Shortfall in accordance with Sections 8.03 and 8.06 of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.
e. Release of Spread Account Excess. If on any Distribution Date,
the amount in the Spread Account exceeds the Required Spread Account Amount
immediately following the payment to Certificateholders on such Distribution
Date, the Collateral Agent shall withdraw the amount of such excess from the
Spread Account and distribute such amount to the Pledgor.
f. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate (after distribution
of any funds remaining in the Spread Account pursuant to the following sentence)
on the termination of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in accordance with
Section 12.03 thereof. On the Final Distribution Date, any amount remaining in
the
5
Spread Account, after payment of any amounts into the Collection Account
pursuant to Section 3(d), shall be distributed to the Pledgor.
g. Nature of Obligations. The obligations of the Pledgor to
transfer the amount of any Shortfall to the Collection Account shall be
unconditional and irrevocable and shall not terminate upon, or otherwise be
affected by, a Service Transfer pursuant to Article VII of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.
h. Letter of Credit and Other Credit Enhancement.
(i) At any time, the Pledgor may obtain the release of all or a
portion of the cash on deposit in the Spread Account, by delivering to the
Collateral Agent (A) a Letter of Credit that satisfies the conditions set
forth in Section 3(h)(iii) or (B) any other form of credit enhancement that
satisfies the conditions set forth in Section 3(h)(iv). Section 3(h)(ii)
shall be operative only after a Letter of Credit that satisfies the
conditions of Section 3(h)(iii) has been delivered to the Collateral Agent.
(ii) If the expiration date of a Letter of Credit is anticipated to
occur before the termination of the Trust pursuant to Section 12.03 of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Pledgor shall use its best efforts to
obtain a replacement Letter of Credit that satisfies the conditions of
Section 3(h)(iii). If on or before the tenth Business Day prior to the
expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the Pledgor shall not have
delivered to the Collateral Agent a replacement Letter of Credit that
satisfies the conditions set forth in Section 3(h)(iii), the Collateral
Agent shall, prior to 11:00 A.M. Minneapolis, Minnesota time on the fifth
Business Day prior to such expiration date, draw under such Letter of
Credit the amount (the "Final Draw Amount") available thereunder, and
deposit the Final Draw Amount in the Spread Account. If, on or before such
fifth Business Day, the Pledgor shall obtain on behalf of and deliver to
the Collateral Agent a replacement Letter of Credit that satisfies the
conditions of Section 3(h)(iii), then the Collateral Agent shall replace
the related Letter of Credit with such replacement Letter of Credit.
The Collateral Agent shall, when required pursuant to the terms of a
Letter of Credit, deliver the existing Letter of Credit to the related
issuing bank upon extension of the expiration date thereof in accordance
with its terms in exchange for the extended or amended Letter of Credit.
6
(iii) Any initial or replacement Letter of Credit delivered to the
Collateral Agent shall satisfy the following conditions:
(A) it shall be issued by a Qualified Bank or confirmed by a
Qualified Bank;
(B) it and the related agreement that provides for the issuance
of such Letter of Credit shall be in such form and substance as is
acceptable to the Collateral Agent, and shall require the Qualified
Bank to give the Collateral Agent prompt notice if at any time it
shall fail to be a Qualified Bank;
(C) it shall be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel or Opinions
of Counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent
as to enforceability of the Letter of Credit; and
(D) Xxxxx'x, Standard & Poor's and Fitch shall each have advised
the Trustee and the Collateral Agent in writing that it will not
reduce, withdraw or qualify its then-current ratings of the Class A
Certificates as a result of the delivery and acceptance of such Letter
of Credit.
The cost of obtaining and maintaining any initial or replacement
Letter of Credit shall be borne solely by the Pledgor and Green Tree. If
the Collateral Agent receives notice that the institution issuing such
Letter of Credit is no longer a Qualified Bank, the Collateral Agent shall
immediately notify the Pledgor. On the day of receipt of such notice (or
the next Business Day thereafter, if such day is not a Business Day), the
Collateral Agent shall draw under the Letter of Credit the full amount
available under such Letter of Credit and deposit the proceeds thereof in
immediately available funds in the Spread Account.
(iv) Any other form of credit enhancement delivered to the Collateral
Agent shall be satisfactory if and only if Xxxxx'x, Standard & Poor's and
Fitch shall each have advised the Trustee and the Collateral Agent in
writing that it will not reduce, withdraw or qualify its then-current
ratings of the Class A Certificates as a result of the delivery and
acceptance of such alternate form of credit enhancement.
The cost of obtaining and maintaining any such alternate form of
credit enhancement shall be borne solely by the Pledgor and Green Tree.
7
(v) At any time when the Collateral Agent holds any Letter of Credit
or other form of credit enhancement, (x) the amount available to be drawn
under such Letter of Credit or other form of credit enhancement shall be
deemed to be in the Spread Account for purposes of determining whether the
balance thereof equals or exceeds the Required Spread Account Amount, and
(y) if a Shortfall is determined to exist with respect to any Distribution
Date, the Collateral Agent shall draw the lesser of (1) the amount
available to be drawn under the Letter of Credit or other form of credit
enhancement, or (2) the amount, if any, by which the Shortfall exceeds the
amount in the Spread Account in a form other than a Letter of Credit or
other form of credit enhancement, and deposit such amount to the Spread
Account, for transfer to the Collection Account, on the Business Day prior
to such Distribution Date.
Section 4. Appointment of Collateral Agent.

appoints the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent hereby accepts such
appointment, as its agent to maintain, and to act on the Trustee's behalf with
respect to the Spread Account.

reflect the funds on deposit in the Spread Account. On each Determination Date,
