WITNESSETH THAT
In consideration of the mutual agreements contained in this Agreement, the
parties to this Agreement agree as follows:
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
The Depositor is the owner of the Trust Fund that is hereby conveyed to the
Trustee in return for the Certificates. For federal income tax purposes, the
Trust Fund (other than the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund and the Carryover
Reserve Fund), will consist of nine real estate mortgage investment conduits
(each a "REMIC" or, in the alternative, the "Separate Termination REMIC," the
"Strip REMIC," the "Master REMIC," "REMIC 1-C," "REMIC 2-C," "REMIC 3-C," "REMIC
1-P," "REMIC 2-P" and "REMIC 3-P," respectively). Each Certificate, other than
the Class 1-C, Class 2-C, Class 3-C, Class 1-P, Class 2-P, Class 3-P, Class R-X
and Class A-R Certificates, will represent ownership of one or more regular
interests in the Master REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Class
1-C, Class 2-C and Class 3-C Certificates will represent, respectively,
ownership of the sole regular interest in REMIC 1-C, REMIC 2-C and REMIC 3-C and
will be entitled to, respectively, all amounts payable on the assets held by
REMIC 1-C, REMIC 2-C and REMIC 3-C. The Class 1-P, Class 2-P and Class 3-P
Certificates will represent, respectively, ownership of the sole regular
interest in REMIC 1-P, REMIC 2-P and REMIC 3-P and will be entitled to,
respectively, all amounts payable on the assets held by the REMIC 1-P, REMIC 2-P
and REMIC 3-P. The Class A-R Certificate will represent ownership of the sole
class of residual interest in each of the Separate Termination REMIC, the Strip
REMIC and the Master REMIC and the Class R-X Certificates will represent
ownership of the sole class of residual interest in each of REMIC 1-C, REMIC
2-C, REMIC 3-C, REMIC 1-P, REMIC 2-P and REMIC 3-P. Except as described below,
none of the residual interests will be entitled to any payments of interest or
principal.
REMIC 1-C, REMIC 2-C, REMIC 3-C, REMIC 1-P, REMIC 2-P and REMIC 3-P will
hold as assets, respectively, the Class 1-C, Class 2-C, Class 3-C, Class 1-P,
Class 2-P and Class 3-P interests in the Master REMIC. The Master REMIC will
hold as assets the several classes of uncertificated Strip REMIC Interests
(other than the Class SR-A-R Interest). The Strip REMIC will hold as assets the
several classes of uncertificated Separate Termination REMIC Interests (other
than the Class ST-A-R Interest). The Separate Termination REMIC will hold all
the assets of the Trust Fund (other than the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund and
the Carryover Reserve Fund). For federal income tax purposes, each REMIC
Interest (other than the interests represented by the Class A-R and Class R-X
Certificates) is hereby designated as a regular
interest. The latest possible maturity date of all REMIC regular interests
created hereby shall be the Latest Possible Maturity Date.

Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group that
require the payment of a Prepayment Charge. The minimum denomination for
each of the Class P-1, Class P-2 and Class P-3 Certificates is a 20%

calculated for the first Distribution Date. Each SR-Y Strip REMIC Interest
will have an Original Class Principal Balance equal to 0.5% of the
aggregate initial stated principal balances of the Mortgage Loans in the
Related Loan Group. Each SR-Z Strip REMIC Interest will have an Original
Class Principal Balance equal to the excess of 50% of the aggregate initial
stated principal balances of the Mortgage Loans in the Related Loan Group
over the initial aggregate Original Class Principal Balances of the related
Class SR-X and Class SR-Y Strip REMIC Interests.
(2) A Rate equal to the weighted average of the Adjusted Net Mortgage Rates of
the Mortgage Loans in the Related Loan Group.
(3) Each of these Strip REMIC Interests (the "Accretion Directed Classes") has
a principal balance that is initially equal to 25% of its Related Master
REMIC Interest.
(4) This Strip REMIC Interest (the "Accrual Class") has an Original Class
Principal Balance equal to the sum of (1) 25% of the aggregate initial
stated principal balances of the Mortgage Loans in the Related Loan Group
(2) 25% of the amount of overcollateralization of the Reltaed Loan Group

(5) For each Distribution Date each Class SR-P Interest is entitled to all all
Prepayment Charges collected with respect to the Mortgage Loans of the
Related Loan Group.
(6) This Strip REMIC Interest makes no interest payments.
(7) The Class SR-A-R Interests represent the sole class of residual interest in
the Strip REMIC. The Class SR-A-R Interests are not entitled to
distributions of interest or principal.
On each Distribution Date, the interest and the principal distributions
payable with respect to the Mortgage Loans will be payable with respect to the
Strip REMIC Interests in the following manner:
(1) Interest. Interest is to be distributable with respect to each Strip
REMIC Interest at the rate, or according to the formulas, described above.
(2) Principal. Fifty percent of all amounts in the nature of principal,
including Realized Losses and Subsequent Recoveries for each Related Loan Group
will be allocated to: (a) the related Class SR-X Interest, if the related Class
SR-X Target Principal Balance (as calculated for the Distribution Date) is
exceeded by the principal balance of such Interest for the prior Distribution
Date, in such an amount as to cause the principal balance of the related Class
SR-X Interest to equal the related Class SR-X Target Principal Balance (as
calculated for the Distribution Date), or (b) the related Class SR-Y Interest,
if the related Class SR-Y Target Principal Balance (as calculated for the

prior
8
Distribution Date, in such an amount as to cause the principal balance of the
related Class SR-Y Interest to equal the related Class SR-Y Target Principal
Balance (as calculated for the Distribution Date). If there are insufficient
amounts in the nature of principal, including Realized Losses and Subsequent
Recoveries for the Distribution Date to make the allocations required in the
immediately preceding sentence, interest accrued in respect of the related Class
SR-Z Interest will be paid as principal to the related Class SR-X and Class SR-Y
Interests as required in the immediately preceding sentence. Any remaining
amounts will be allocated pro rata to the related Class SR-X, Class SR-Y and
Class SR-Z Interests based on their principal balances following the allocations
made in the immediately preceding two sentences.
Fifty percent of all amounts in the nature of principal, including Realized
Losses and Subsequent Recoveries for each Related Loan Group will be allocated
to the related Accrual Class and related Accretion Directed Classes in such a
manner that, following the allocations: (i) the Class Principal Balances of the
related Accretion Directed Classes will equal 25% of the Class Principal
Balances of their Related Master REMIC Interests for the Distribution Date, and
(ii) the Class Principal Balance of the related Accrual Class will equal to 25%
of the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans in the Related
Loan Group plus 25% of all Net Deferred Interest of the Related Loan Group.
The foregoing REMIC structure is intended to cause all of the cash from the
Mortgage Loans to flow through to the Master REMIC as cash flow on a REMIC
regular interest, without creating any shortfall--actual or potential (other
than for credit losses)-- to any REMIC regular interest. It is not intended that
the Class A-R Certificates be entitled to any cash flows pursuant to this
Agreement except as provided in Section 3.08(a) hereunder, (that is, its
entitlement to $100).

the Depositor, without recourse, all its respective right, title and interest in
and to the related Mortgage Loans, including all interest and principal received
or receivable by such Seller, on or with respect to the applicable Mortgage
Loans after the Cut-off Date and all interest and principal payments on the
related Mortgage Loans received prior to the Cut-off Date in respect of

delivery of the Mortgage Files shall be made against payment by the Depositor of
the purchase price, previously agreed to by the Sellers and Depositor, for the
Mortgage Loans. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that does not have a first
payment date on or before the Due Date in the month of the first Distribution
Date, Countrywide shall deposit into the Distribution Account on or before the

conveys to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, without
recourse, all the right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to the Trust
Fund together with the Depositor's right to require each Seller to cure any
breach of a representation or warranty made in this Agreement by such Seller or
to repurchase or substitute for any affected Mortgage Loan in accordance
herewith.
(c) In connection with the transfer and assignment set forth in clause (b)
above, the Depositor has delivered or caused to be delivered to the Trustee (or,

the benefit of the Certificateholders the following documents or instruments
with respect to each Mortgage Loan so assigned:

signature in blank in the following form: "Pay to the order of ____________
without recourse," with all intervening endorsements showing a complete

right, title and interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or
assignee thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note); or
43
(B) with respect to any Lost Mortgage Note, a lost note affidavit from
Countrywide stating that the original Mortgage Note was lost or destroyed,
together with a copy of such Mortgage Note;
(ii) except as provided below and for each Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS
Mortgage Loan, the original recorded Mortgage or a copy of such Mortgage
certified by Countrywide as being a true and complete copy of the Mortgage (or,
in the case of a Mortgage for which the related Mortgaged Property is located in
the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, a true copy of the Mortgage certified as such
by the applicable notary) and in the case of each MERS Mortgage Loan, the
original Mortgage, noting the presence of the MIN of the Mortgage Loans and
either language indicating that the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan if the Mortgage
Loan is a MOM Loan or if the Mortgage Loan was not a MOM Loan at origination,
the original Mortgage and the assignment thereof to MERS, with evidence of
recording indicated thereon, or a copy of the Mortgage certified by the public
recording office in which such Mortgage has been recorded;
(iii) in the case of each Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS Mortgage Loan, a
duly executed assignment of the Mortgage (which may be included in a blanket
assignment or assignments), together with, except as provided below, all interim
recorded assignments of such 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); provided that, if the related Mortgage has not been
returned from the applicable public recording office, such assignment of the
Mortgage may exclude the information to be provided by the recording office;
provided, further, that such assignment of Mortgage need not be delivered in the
case of a Mortgage for which the related Mortgaged Property is located in the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico;
(iv) the original or copies of each assumption, modification, written
assurance or substitution agreement, if any;
(v) except as provided below, the original or duplicate original of the
lender's title policy or a printout of the electronic equivalent and all riders
thereto; and
(vi) in the case of a Cooperative Loan, the originals of the following
documents or instruments:
(A) The Coop Shares, together with a stock power in blank;
(B) The executed Security Agreement;
(C) The executed Proprietary Lease;
(D) The executed Recognition Agreement;
(E) The executed UCC-1 financing statement with evidence of

Proprietary Lease; and
44
(F) The 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).
In addition, in connection with the assignment of any MERS Mortgage Loan,
each Seller agrees that it will cause, at the Trustee's expense, the MERS(R)
System to indicate that the Mortgage Loans sold by such Seller to the Depositor
have been assigned by that Seller to the Trustee in accordance with this
Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders by including (or deleting,
in the case of Mortgage Loans which are repurchased in accordance with this
Agreement) in such computer files the information required by the MERS(R) System
to identify the series of the Certificates issued in connection with such
Mortgage Loans. Each Seller further agrees that it will not, and will not permit
the Master Servicer to, and the Master Servicer agrees that it will not, alter
the information referenced in this paragraph with respect to any Mortgage Loan
sold by such Seller to the Depositor during the term of this Agreement unless
and until such Mortgage Loan is repurchased in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.
In the event that in connection with any Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS
Mortgage Loan the Depositor cannot deliver (a) the original recorded Mortgage,
(b) all interim recorded assignments or (c) the lender's title policy (together
with all riders thereto) satisfying the requirements of clause (ii), (iii) or
(v) above, respectively, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement because such document or documents have not been returned from the
applicable public recording office in the case of clause (ii) or (iii) above, or
because the title policy has not been delivered to either the Master Servicer or
the Depositor by the applicable title insurer in the case of clause (v) above,
the Depositor shall promptly deliver to the Trustee, in the case of clause (ii)
or (iii) above, such original Mortgage or such interim assignment, as the case
may be, with evidence of recording indicated thereon upon receipt thereof from
the public recording office, or a copy thereof, certified, if appropriate, by
the relevant recording office, but in no event shall any such delivery of the
original Mortgage and each such interim assignment or a copy thereof, certified,
if appropriate, by the relevant recording office, be made later than one year
following the Closing Date, or, in the case of clause (v) above, no later than
120 days following the Closing Date; provided, however, in the event the
Depositor is unable to deliver by such date each Mortgage and each such interim
assignment by reason of the fact that any such documents have not been returned
by the appropriate recording office, or, in the case of each such interim
assignment, because the related Mortgage has not been returned by the
appropriate recording office, the Depositor shall deliver such documents to the
Trustee as promptly as possible upon receipt thereof and, in any event, within
720 days following the Closing Date. The Depositor shall forward or cause to be
forwarded to the Trustee (a) from time to time additional original documents
evidencing an assumption or modification of a Mortgage Loan and (b) any other
documents required to be delivered by the Depositor or the Master Servicer to
the Trustee. In the event that the original Mortgage is not delivered and in
connection with the payment in full of the related Mortgage Loan and the public
recording 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 Master
Servicer shall execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered such a
document to the public recording office. In the case where a public recording
office retains the original recorded Mortgage or in the case where a Mortgage is
lost after recordation in a public recording office,
45
Countrywide shall deliver to the Trustee a copy of such Mortgage certified by
such public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the original
recorded Mortgage.
As promptly as practicable subsequent to such transfer and assignment, and
in any event, within thirty (30) days after such transfer and assignment, the
Trustee shall (i) as the assignee thereof, affix the following language to each
assignment of Mortgage: "CWMBS Series 0000-0, Xxx Xxxx xx Xxx Xxxx as trustee",
(ii) cause such assignment to be in proper form for recording in the appropriate
public office for real property records and (iii) 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
assignments of Mortgage as to which the Trustee has not received the information
required to prepare such assignment in recordable form, the Trustee'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 any event within thirty
(30) days after receipt thereof and that the Trustee need not cause to be
recorded any assignment which relates to a Mortgage Loan (a) the Mortgaged
Property and Mortgage File relating to which are located in California or (b) in
any other jurisdiction (including Puerto Rico) under the laws of which in the
opinion of counsel the recordation of such assignment is not necessary to
protect the Trustee's and the Certificateholders' interest in the related
Mortgage Loan.
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, will deposit in the Certificate Account the portion of such payment
that is required to be deposited in the Certificate Account pursuant to Section
3.05. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, within thirty
(30) days after the Closing Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans, Countrywide
(on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna)
shall either (i) deliver to the Depositor, or at the Depositor's direction, to
the Trustee or other designee of the Depositor the Mortgage File as required
pursuant to this Section 2.01 for each Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan or (ii)
either (A) substitute a Substitute Mortgage Loan for the Delay Delivery Mortgage
Loan or (B) repurchase the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan, which substitution or
repurchase shall be accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set
forth in Section 2.03 (treating each Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan as a Deleted
Mortgage Loan for purposes of such Section 2.03); provided, however, that if
Countrywide fails to deliver a Mortgage File for any Delay Delivery Mortgage
Loan within the thirty (30)-day period provided in the prior sentence,
Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and
Park Sienna) shall use its best reasonable efforts to effect a substitution,
rather than a repurchase of, such Deleted Mortgage Loan and provided further
that the cure period provided for in Section 2.02 or in Section 2.03 shall not
apply to the initial delivery of the Mortgage File for such Delay Delivery
Mortgage Loan, but rather Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park
Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) shall have five (5) Business Days to cure
such failure to deliver. At the end of such thirty (30)-day period the Trustee
shall send a Delay Delivery Certification for the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans
delivered during such thirty (30)-day period in accordance with the provisions
of Section 2.02.
Each Seller has entered into this Agreement in consideration for the
purchase of the Mortgage Loans sold by such Seller to the Depositor and has
agreed to take the actions specified herein. The Depositor, concurrently with
the execution and delivery of this Agreement, hereby
46
sells, transfers, assigns and otherwise conveys to the Trustee for the use and
benefit of the Certificateholders, without recourse, all right title and
interest in the portion of the Trust Fund not otherwise conveyed to the Trust
Fund pursuant to Sections 2.01(a) or (b).
SECTION 2.02. Acceptance by Trustee of the Mortgage Loans.
(a) The Trustee acknowledges receipt of the documents identified in the
Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F (an "Initial
Certification") and declares that it holds and will hold such documents and the
other documents delivered to it constituting the Mortgage Files, and that it
holds or will hold such other assets as are included in the Trust Fund, in trust
for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.
The Trustee acknowledges that it will maintain possession of the Mortgage Notes
in the State of California, unless otherwise permitted by the Rating Agencies.
The Trustee agrees to execute and deliver on the Closing Date to the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf
of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) an Initial Certification in the
form annexed to this Agreement as Exhibit F. Based on its review and
examination, and only as to the documents identified in such Initial
Certification, the Trustee acknowledges that such documents appear regular on
their face and relate to the Mortgage Loans. The Trustee shall be under no duty
or obligation to inspect, review or examine said documents, instruments,
certificates or other papers to determine that the same are genuine, enforceable
or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have actually been
recorded in the real estate records or that they are other than what they
purport to be on their face.
On or about the thirtieth (30th) day after the Closing Date, the Trustee
shall deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and Countrywide (on its own
behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) a Delay
Delivery Certification with respect to the Mortgage Loans in the form annexed
hereto as Exhibit G (a "Delay Delivery Certification"), with any applicable
exceptions noted thereon.
Not later than 90 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deliver to
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and Countrywide (on its own behalf and on
behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) a Final Certification with
respect to the Mortgage Loans in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit H (a "Final
Certification"), with any applicable exceptions noted thereon.
If, in the course of such review, the Trustee finds any document
constituting a part of a Mortgage File that does not meet the requirements of
Section 2.01, the Trustee shall list such as an exception in the Final
Certification; provided, however that the Trustee shall not make any
determination as to whether (i) any endorsement is sufficient to transfer all
right, title and interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee
thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note or (ii) any assignment is in recordable
form or is sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer to the assignee
thereof under the mortgage to which the assignment relates. Countrywide (on its
own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) shall
promptly correct or cure such defect within 90 days from the date it was so
notified of such defect and, if Countrywide does not correct or cure such defect
within such period, Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park
Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) shall either (a) substitute
47
for the
related Mortgage Loan a Substitute Mortgage Loan, which substitution shall be
accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section
2.03, or (b) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee within 90 days from
the date Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park
Monaco and Park Sienna) was notified of such defect in writing at the Purchase
Price of such Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall such
substitution or purchase occur more than 540 days from the Closing Date, except
that if the substitution or purchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this
provision is required by reason of a delay in delivery of any documents by the
appropriate recording office, and there is a dispute between either the Master
Servicer or Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park
Monaco and Park Sienna) and the Trustee over the location or status of the
recorded document, then such substitution or purchase shall occur within 720
days from the Closing Date. The Trustee shall deliver written notice to each
Rating Agency within 270 days from the Closing Date indicating each Mortgage
Loan (a) that has not been returned by the appropriate recording office or (b)
as to which there is a dispute as to location or status of such Mortgage Loan.
Such notice shall be delivered every 90 days thereafter until the related
Mortgage Loan is returned to the Trustee. Any such substitution pursuant to (a)
above or purchase pursuant to (b) above shall not be effected prior to the
delivery to the Trustee of the Opinion of Counsel required by Section 2.05, if
any, and any substitution pursuant to (a) above shall not be effected prior to
the additional delivery to the Trustee of a Request for Release substantially in
the form of Exhibit N. No substitution is permitted to be made in any calendar
month after the Determination Date for such month. The Purchase Price for any
such Mortgage Loan shall be deposited by Countrywide (on its own behalf and on
behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) in the Certificate Account
on or prior to the Distribution Account Deposit Date for the Distribution Date
in the month following the month of repurchase and, upon receipt of such deposit
and certification with respect thereto in the form of Exhibit N hereto, the
Trustee shall release the related Mortgage File to Countrywide (on its own
behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) and shall
execute and deliver at Countrywide's (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park
Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) request such instruments of transfer or
assignment prepared by Countrywide, in each case without recourse, as shall be
necessary to vest in Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park
Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna), or its designee, the Trustee's interest
in any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto. If pursuant to the foregoing
provisions Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park
Monaco and Park Sienna) repurchases a Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage
Loan, the Master Servicer shall either (i) cause MERS to execute and deliver an
assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS
to Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and
Park Sienna) or its designee and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from
registration on the MERS(R) System in accordance with MERS' rules and
regulations or (ii) cause MERS to designate on the MERS(R) System Countrywide
(on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna)
or its designee as the beneficial holder of such Mortgage Loan.
(b) [Reserved].
(c) [Reserved].
(d) The Trustee shall retain possession and custody of each Mortgage File
in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement. The Master Servicer shall promptly deliver to the Trustee, upon the
execution or receipt thereof, the originals
48
of such other documents or instruments constituting the Mortgage File as come
into the possession of the Master Servicer from time to time.
(e) It is understood and agreed that the respective obligations of each
Seller to substitute for or to purchase any Mortgage Loan sold to the Depositor
by it which does not meet the requirements of Section 2.01 above shall
constitute the sole remedy respecting such defect available to the Trustee, the
Depositor and any Certificateholder against that Seller.
SECTION 2.03. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Sellers and
Master Servicer.
(a) Countrywide hereby makes the representations and warranties set forth

that are Park Granada Mortgage Loans. Park Monaco hereby makes the
representations and warranties set forth in (i) Schedule II-C hereto, and by

Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans that are Park Monaco Mortgage Loans.
Park Sienna hereby makes the representations and warranties set forth in (i)
Schedule II-D hereto, and by this reference incorporated herein, to the

Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, as of the Closing Date, or if so
specified therein, as of the Cut-off Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans
that are Park Sienna Mortgage Loans.
(b) The Master Servicer hereby makes the representations and warranties set
forth in Schedule IV hereto, and by this reference incorporated herein, to the
Depositor and the Trustee, as of the Closing Date.
(c) Upon discovery by any of the parties hereto of a breach of a
representation or warranty with respect to a Mortgage Loan made pursuant to
Section 2.03(a) that materially and adversely affects the interests of the
Certificateholders in that Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach
shall give prompt notice thereof to the other parties and the NIM Insurer. Each
Seller hereby covenants that within 90 days of the earlier of its discovery or
its receipt of written notice from any party of a breach of any representation
or warranty with respect to a Mortgage Loan sold by it pursuant to Section
2.03(a) that materially and adversely affects the interests of the
Certificateholders in that Mortgage Loan, it shall cure such breach in
49
all material respects, and if such breach is not so cured, shall, (i) if such
90-day period expires prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date,
remove such Mortgage Loan (a "Deleted Mortgage Loan") from the Trust Fund and
substitute in its place a Substitute Mortgage Loan, in the manner and subject to
the conditions set forth in this Section; or (ii) repurchase the affected
Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans from the Trustee at the Purchase Price in the
manner set forth below; provided, however, that any such substitution pursuant
to (i) above shall not be effected prior to the delivery to the Trustee of the
Opinion of Counsel required by Section 2.05, if any, and any such substitution
pursuant to (i) above shall not be effected prior to the additional delivery to
the Trustee of a Request for Release substantially in the form of Exhibit N and

a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) shall promptly reimburse the
Master Servicer and the Trustee for any expenses reasonably incurred by the
Master Servicer or the Trustee in respect of enforcing the remedies for such
breach. With respect to the representations and warranties described in this
Section which are made to the best of a Seller's knowledge, if it is discovered
by either the Depositor, a Seller or the Trustee that the substance of such
representation and warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy materially and
adversely affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan or the interests of the
Certificateholders therein, notwithstanding that Seller's lack of knowledge with
respect to the substance of such representation or warranty, such inaccuracy
shall be deemed a breach of the applicable representation or warranty.
With respect to any Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans sold to the Depositor
by a Seller, Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park
Monaco and Park Sienna) shall deliver to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the related assignment of
the Mortgage, and such other documents and agreements as are required by Section
2.01, with the Mortgage Note endorsed and the Mortgage assigned as required by
Section 2.01. No substitution is permitted to be made in any calendar month
after the Determination Date for such month. Scheduled Payments due with respect
to Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution shall not be part of
the Trust Fund and will be retained by the related Seller on the next succeeding
Distribution Date. For the month of substitution, distributions to
Certificateholders will include the monthly payment due on any Deleted Mortgage
Loan for such month and thereafter that Seller shall be entitled to retain all
amounts received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer
shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule for the benefit of the Certificateholders
to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and the Master Servicer shall deliver the
amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee. Upon such substitution, the
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall be subject to the terms of this
Agreement in all respects, and the related Seller shall be deemed to have made
with respect to such Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the date of
substitution, the representations and warranties made pursuant to Section
2.03(a) with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Upon any such substitution and the
deposit to the Certificate Account of the amount required to be deposited
therein in connection with such substitution as described in the following
paragraph, the Trustee shall release the Mortgage File held for the benefit of
the Certificateholders relating to such Deleted Mortgage Loan to the related
Seller and shall execute and deliver at such Seller's direction such instruments
of transfer or assignment prepared by Countrywide (on its own behalf and on
behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna), in each case without
recourse, as shall be necessary to vest title in that Seller, or its designee,
the Trustee's interest in any Deleted Mortgage Loan substituted for pursuant to
this Section 2.03.
50
For any month in which a Seller substitutes one or more Substitute Mortgage
Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer will determine
the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal balance of all Substitute
Mortgage Loans sold to the Depositor by that Seller as of the date of
substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all Deleted
Mortgage Loans repurchased by that Seller (after application of the scheduled
principal portion of the monthly payments due in the month of substitution). The
amount of such shortage (the "Substitution Adjustment Amount") plus an amount
equal to the aggregate of any unreimbursed Advances with respect to such Deleted
Mortgage Loans shall be deposited in the Certificate Account by Countrywide (on
its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) on or
before the Distribution Account Deposit Date for the Distribution Date in the
month succeeding the calendar month during which the related Mortgage Loan
became required to be purchased or replaced hereunder.
In the event that a Seller shall have repurchased a Mortgage Loan, the
Purchase Price therefor shall be deposited in the Certificate Account pursuant
to Section 3.05 on or before the Distribution Account Deposit Date for the
Distribution Date in the month following the month during which that Seller
became obligated hereunder to repurchase or replace such Mortgage Loan and upon
such deposit of the Purchase Price, the delivery of the Opinion of Counsel
required by Section 2.05 and receipt of a Request for Release in the form of
Exhibit N hereto, the Trustee shall release the related Mortgage File held for
the benefit of the Certificateholders to such Person, and the Trustee shall
execute and deliver at such Person's direction such instruments of transfer or
assignment prepared by such Person, in each case without recourse, as shall be
necessary to transfer title from the Trustee. It is understood and agreed that
the obligation under this Agreement of any Person to cure, repurchase or replace
any Mortgage Loan as to which a breach has occurred and is continuing shall
constitute the sole remedy against such Persons respecting such breach available
to Certificateholders, the Depositor or the Trustee on their behalf.
The representations and warranties made pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall
survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to the Trustee for 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
each Mortgage Loan as of the date of this Agreement or such other date set forth
in this Agreement that as of the Closing Date, and following the transfer of the
Mortgage Loans to it by each Seller, the Depositor had good title to the
Mortgage Loans and the Mortgage Notes were subject to no offsets, defenses or
counterclaims.
The Depositor hereby assigns, transfers and conveys to the Trustee all of
its rights with respect to the Mortgage Loans including, without limitation, the
representations and warranties of each Seller made pursuant to Section 2.03(a),
together with all rights of the Depositor to require a Seller to cure any breach
thereof or to repurchase or substitute for any affected Mortgage Loan in
accordance with this Agreement.
It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set
forth in this Section 2.04 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to the
Trustee. Upon discovery by the
51
Depositor or the Trustee of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and
warranties set forth in this Section 2.04 (referred to herein as a "breach"),
which breach materially and adversely affects the interest of the
Certificateholders, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written
notice to the others and to each Rating Agency and the NIM Insurer.
SECTION 2.05. Delivery of Opinion of Counsel in Connection with
Substitutions.
(a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no
substitution pursuant to Section 2.02 or Section 2.03 shall be made more than
90 days after the Closing Date unless Countrywide delivers to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be at the expense of
either the Trustee or the Trust Fund, addressed to the Trustee, to the effect
that such substitution will not (i) result in the imposition of the tax on
"prohibited transactions" on the Trust Fund or contributions after the Startup
Date, as defined in Sections 860F(a)(2) and 860G(d) of the Code, respectively,
or (ii) cause any REMIC created under this Agreement to fail to qualify as a
REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding.
(b) Upon discovery by the Depositor, a Seller, the Master Servicer, or
the Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a "qualified mortgage"
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering
such fact shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days of
discovery) give written notice thereof to the other parties and the NIM
Insurer. In connection therewith, the Trustee shall require Countrywide (on
its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) at
its option, to either (i) substitute, if the conditions in Section 2.03(c)
with respect to substitutions are satisfied, a Substitute Mortgage Loan for
the affected Mortgage Loan, or (ii) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan
within 90 days of such discovery in the same manner as it would a Mortgage
Loan for a breach of representation or warranty made pursuant to Section 2.03.
The Trustee shall reconvey to Countrywide the Mortgage Loan to be released
pursuant to this Section in the same manner, and on the same terms and
conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach of a
representation or warranty contained in Section 2.03.
SECTION 2.06. Execution and Delivery of Certificates.
The Trustee acknowledges the transfer and assignment to it of the Trust
Fund and, concurrently with such transfer and assignment, has executed and
delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor, the Certificates in
authorized denominations evidencing directly or indirectly the entire
ownership of the Trust Fund. The Trustee agrees to hold the Trust Fund and
exercise the rights referred to above for the benefit of all present and
future Holders of the Certificates and to perform the duties set forth in this
Agreement, to the end that the interests of the Holders of the Certificates
may be adequately and effectively protected.
SECTION 2.07. REMIC Matters.
The Preliminary Statement sets forth the designations and "latest
possible maturity date" for federal income tax purposes of all interests
created hereby. The "Startup Day" for purposes of the REMIC Provisions shall
be the Closing Date. The "tax matters person" with respect to each REMIC
hereunder shall be the Trustee and the Trustee shall hold the Tax Matters
Person Certificate. Each REMIC's fiscal year shall be the calendar year.
52
SECTION 2.08. Covenants of the Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer hereby covenants to the Depositor and the Trustee as
follows:
(a) the Master Servicer shall comply in the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of
the insurer under each Required Insurance Policy; and
(b) no written information, certificate of an officer, statement
furnished in writing or written report delivered to the Depositor, any
affiliate of the Depositor or the Trustee and prepared by the Master Servicer
pursuant to this Agreement will contain any untrue statement of a material
fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make such information,
certificate, statement or report not misleading.
53
ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF MORTGAGE LOANS
SECTION 3.01. Master Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans.
For and on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall
service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement and customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage
loan servicers. In connection with such servicing and administration, the
Master Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone and/or
through Subservicers as provided in Section 3.02, subject to the terms of this
Agreement (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and
the Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and
documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and
assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages (but only in the
manner provided in this Agreement), (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds
and other Liquidation Proceeds (which for the purpose of this Section 3.01
includes any Subsequent Recoveries), and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or
other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any
Mortgage Loan; provided that the Master Servicer shall not take any action
that is inconsistent with or prejudices the interests of the Trust Fund or the
Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan or the rights and interests of the
Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificateholders under this Agreement. The
Master Servicer shall represent and protect the interests of the Trust Fund in
the same manner as it protects its own interests in mortgage loans in its own
portfolio in any claim, proceeding or litigation regarding a Mortgage Loan,
and shall not make or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any
Mortgage Loan which would cause any REMIC created under this Agreement to fail
to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of any tax under section
860F(a) or section 860G(d) of the Code. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Master Servicer, in its own name or in the name of the
Depositor and the Trustee, is hereby authorized and empowered by the Depositor
and the Trustee, when the Master Servicer believes it appropriate in its
reasonable judgment, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, the
Depositor, the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of
satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge and
all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, and with
respect to the Mortgaged Properties held for the benefit of the
Certificateholders. The Master Servicer shall prepare and deliver to the
Depositor and/or the Trustee such documents requiring execution and delivery
by either or both of them as are necessary or appropriate to enable the Master
Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans to the extent that the
Master Servicer is not permitted to execute and deliver such documents
pursuant to the preceding sentence. Upon receipt of such documents, the
Depositor and/or the Trustee shall execute such documents and deliver them to
the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer further is authorized and empowered
by the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its
own name or in the name of the Subservicer, when the Master Servicer or the
Subservicer, as the case may be, believes it appropriate in its best judgment
to register any Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System, or cause the removal from
the registration of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System, to execute and
deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders or any of them,
any and all instruments of assignment and other comparable instruments with
respect to such assignment or re-recording of a Mortgage in the name of MERS,
solely as nominee for the Trustee and its successors and assigns.
54
In accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph, the Master
Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary for the
purpose of effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged
Properties, which advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from
related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.06, and further
as provided in Section 3.08. The costs incurred by the Master Servicer, if
any, in effecting the timely payments of taxes and assessments on the
Mortgaged Properties and related insurance premiums shall not, for the purpose
of calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders, be added to
the Stated Principal Balances of the related Mortgage Loans, notwithstanding
that the terms of such Mortgage Loans so permit.
SECTION 3.02. Subservicing; Enforcement of the Obligations of Servicers.
(a) The Master Servicer may arrange for the subservicing of any Mortgage
Loan by a Subservicer pursuant to a subservicing agreement; provided, however,
that such subservicing arrangement and the terms of the related subservicing
agreement must provide for the servicing of such Mortgage Loans in a manner
consistent with the servicing arrangements contemplated under this Agreement;
provided, however, that the NIM Insurer shall have consented to such
subservicing agreements (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).
Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this Agreement to actions
taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer in servicing the Mortgage Loans
include actions taken or to be taken by a Subservicer on behalf of the Master
Servicer. Notwithstanding the provisions of any subservicing agreement, any of
the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements
between the Master Servicer and a Subservicer or reference to actions taken
through a Subservicer or otherwise, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated
and liable to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificateholders for the
servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or
liability by virtue of such subservicing agreements or arrangements or by
virtue of indemnification from the Subservicer and to the same extent and
under the same terms and conditions as if the Master Servicer alone were
servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. All actions of each
Subservicer performed pursuant to the related subservicing agreement shall be
performed as an agent of the Master Servicer with the same force and effect as
if performed directly by the Master Servicer.
(b) For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be deemed
to have received any collections, recoveries or payments with respect to the
Mortgage Loans that are received by a Subservicer regardless of whether such
payments are remitted by the Subservicer to the Master Servicer.
SECTION 3.03. Rights of the Depositor, the NIM Insurer and the Trustee in
Respect of the Master Servicer.
The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of
the Master Servicer under this Agreement and may, but is not obligated to,
perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the
Master Servicer under this Agreement and in connection with any such defaulted
obligation to exercise the related rights of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be relieved of any of
its obligations under this Agreement by virtue of such performance by the
Depositor or its designee. None of the Trustee, the NIM Insurer or the
Depositor shall have any responsibility or liability for any action
55
or failure to act by the Master Servicer nor shall the Trustee or the Depositor
be obligated to supervise the performance of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement or otherwise.
SECTION 3.04. Trustee to Act as Master Servicer.
In the event that the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be
the Master Servicer under this Agreement (including by reason of an Event of
Default or termination by the Depositor), the Trustee or its successor shall
then assume all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under
this Agreement arising thereafter (except that the Trustee shall not be (i)
liable for losses of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.09 or any acts
or omissions of the predecessor Master Servicer under this Agreement), (ii)
obligated to make Advances if it is prohibited from doing so by applicable
law, (iii) obligated to effectuate repurchases or substitutions of Mortgage
Loans under this Agreement including, but not limited to, repurchases or
substitutions of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.03, (iv)
responsible for expenses of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 2.03 or
(v) deemed to have made any representations and warranties of the Master
Servicer under this Agreement). Any such assumption shall be subject to
Section 7.02. If the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the
Master Servicer (including by reason of any Event of Default or termination by
the Depositor), the Trustee or its successor shall succeed to any rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer under each subservicing agreement.
The Master Servicer shall, upon request of the Trustee, but at the
expense of the Master Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all documents
and records relating to each subservicing agreement or substitute subservicing
agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced thereunder and an
accounting of amounts collected or held by it and otherwise use its best
efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the substitute
subservicing agreement to the assuming party.
SECTION 3.05. Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments; Certificate Account;
Distribution Account; Carryover Reserve Fund; Principal
Reserve Fund and Corridor Contract Reserve Fund.
(a) The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts in accordance with
the customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage servicers to
collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage
Loans to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement
and the terms and provisions of any related Required Insurance Policy.
Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i)
waive any late payment charge or, subject to Section 3.20, any Prepayment
Charge or penalty interest in connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage
Loan and (ii) extend the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a
period not greater than 180 days; provided, however, that the Master Servicer
cannot extend the maturity of any such Mortgage Loan past the date on which
the final payment is due on the latest maturing Mortgage Loan as of the
Cut-off Date. In the event of any such arrangement, the Master Servicer shall
make Advances on the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions
of Section 4.01 during the scheduled period in accordance with the
amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by
reason of such arrangements. In addition, the NIM Insurer's prior written
consent shall be required for any waiver of Prepayment Charges or for the
extension of the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note, if the
aggregate number of outstanding Mortgage Loans that
56
have been granted such waivers or extensions exceeds 5% of the aggregate
number of Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall not be required to
institute or join in litigation with respect to collection of any payment
(whether under a Mortgage, Mortgage Note or otherwise or against any public or
governmental authority with respect to a taking or condemnation) if it
reasonably believes that enforcing the provision of the Mortgage or other
instrument pursuant to which such payment is required is prohibited by
applicable law.
(b) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Certificate
Account into which the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited
no later than two Business Days after receipt (or, if the current long-term
credit rating of Countrywide is reduced below "A-" by S&P or "A3" by Xxxxx'x,
the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited on a daily basis
within one Business Day of receipt), except as otherwise specifically provided
in this Agreement, the following payments and collections remitted by
Subservicers or received by it in respect of Mortgage Loans subsequent to the
Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal and interest due on the
Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date) and the following amounts
required to be deposited under this Agreement:
(i) all payments on account of principal on the Mortgage Loans,
including Principal Prepayments;
(ii) all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans, net
of the related Master Servicing Fee, Prepayment Interest Excess and any
lender paid mortgage insurance premiums;
(iii) all Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and Liquidation
Proceeds, other than proceeds to be applied to the restoration or repair
of a Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with
the Master Servicer's normal servicing procedures;
(iv) any amount required to be deposited by the Master Servicer or
the Depositor in connection with any losses on Permitted Investments for
which it is responsible;
(v) any amounts required to be deposited by the Master Servicer
pursuant to Section 3.09(c) and in respect of net monthly rental income
from REO Property pursuant to Section 3.11;
(vi) all Substitution Adjustment Amounts;
(vii) all Advances made by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section
4.01; and
(viii) any other amounts required to be deposited under this
Agreement.
In addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is subject to a
buydown agreement, on each Due Date for such Mortgage Loan, in addition to the
monthly payment remitted by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer shall cause
funds to be deposited into the Certificate Account in an amount required to
cause an amount of interest to be paid with respect to such Mortgage Loan
57
equal to the amount of interest that has accrued on such Mortgage Loan from
the preceding Due Date at the Mortgage Rate net of the related Master
Servicing Fee.
The foregoing requirements for remittance by the Master Servicer shall be
exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of prepayment penalties,
late payment charges or assumption fees, if collected, need not be remitted by
the Master Servicer. In the event that the Master Servicer shall remit any
amount not required to be remitted, it may at any time withdraw or direct the
institution maintaining the Certificate Account to withdraw such amount from
the Certificate Account, any provision in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding. Such withdrawal or direction may be accomplished by
delivering written notice thereof to the Trustee or such other institution
maintaining the Certificate Account which describes the amounts deposited in
error in the Certificate Account. The Master Servicer shall maintain adequate
records with respect to all withdrawals made pursuant to this Section. All
funds deposited in the Certificate Account shall be held in trust for the
Certificateholders until withdrawn in accordance with Section 3.08.
(c) The Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the
Certificateholders, a Principal Reserve Fund in the name of the Trustee. On
the Closing Date, the Depositor shall deposit into the Principal Reserve Fund
$100. Funds on deposit in the Principal Reserve Fund shall not be invested.
The Principal Reserve Fund shall be treated as an "outside reserve fund" under
applicable Treasury regulations and shall not be part of any REMIC created
under this Agreement. Amounts on deposit in the Principal Reserve Fund shall
not be invested.
(d) The Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the
Certificateholders, the Distribution Account. The Trustee shall, promptly upon
receipt, deposit in the Distribution Account and retain in the Distribution
Account the following:
(i) the aggregate amount remitted by the Master Servicer to the
Trustee pursuant to Section 3.08(a)(ix);
(ii) any amount deposited by the Master Servicer or the Depositor
pursuant to Section 3.05(e) in connection with any losses on Permitted
Investments for which it is responsible; and
(iii) any other amounts deposited hereunder which are required to be
deposited in the Distribution Account.
In the event that the Master Servicer shall remit any amount not required
to be remitted, it may at any time direct the Trustee to withdraw such amount
from the Distribution Account, any provision in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding. Such direction may be accomplished by delivering an Officer's
Certificate to the Trustee which describes the amounts deposited in error in
the Distribution Account. All funds deposited in the Distribution Account
shall be held by the Trustee in trust for the Certificateholders until
disbursed in accordance with this Agreement or withdrawn in accordance with
Section 3.08. In no event shall the Trustee incur liability for withdrawals
from the Distribution Account at the direction of the Master Servicer.
58
(e) Each institution at which the Certificate Account or the Distribution
Account is maintained shall invest the funds therein as directed in writing by
the Master Servicer in Permitted Investments, which shall mature not later
than (i) in the case of the Certificate Account, the second Business Day next
preceding the related Distribution Account Deposit Date (except that if such
Permitted Investment is an obligation of the institution that maintains such
account, then such Permitted Investment shall mature not later than the
Business Day next preceding such Distribution Account Deposit Date) and (ii)
in the case of the Distribution Account, the Business Day next preceding the
Distribution Date (except that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation
of the institution that maintains such fund or account, then 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 income and gain net of any losses
realized from any such investment of funds on deposit in the Certificate
Account, or the Distribution Account shall be for the benefit of the Master
Servicer as servicing compensation and shall be remitted to it monthly as
provided in this Agreement. The amount of any realized losses in the
Certificate Account or the Distribution Account incurred in any such account
in respect of any such investments shall promptly be deposited by the Master
Servicer in the Certificate Account or paid to the Trustee for deposit into
the Distribution Account, as applicable. The Trustee in its fiduciary capacity
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 Certificate Account or
the Distribution Account and made in accordance with this Section 3.05.
(f) The Master Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, each Seller,
each Rating Agency and the Depositor of any proposed change of the location of
the Certificate Account prior to any change thereof. The Trustee shall give
notice to the Master Servicer, each Seller, each Rating Agency and the
Depositor of any proposed change of the location of the Distribution Account
or the Carryover Reserve Fund prior to any change thereof.
(g) On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain in its
name, in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Offered Certificates, the
Carryover Reserve Fund and shall deposit $425,651.21 therein upon receipt from
or on behalf of the Depositor of such amount. The Carryover Reserve Fund shall
be an Eligible Account, and funds on deposit therein shall be held separate and
apart from, and shall not be commingled with, any other moneys, including
without limitation, other moneys held by the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement.
On the first Distribution Date, the Trustee shall deposit $[ ] on deposit
in the Carryover Reserve Fund into the Distribution Account to be included in
the Available Funds for Loan Group 1, Loan Group 2 and Loan Group 3 to be
distributed to the Offered Certificates pursuant to Sections 4.02(a)(6) and
(7), 4.02(b)(6) and (7) and 4.02(c)(6) and (7).
Funds in the Carryover Reserve Fund may be invested in Permitted
Investments at the direction of the Majority of the Holders of the Class C
Certificates, which Permitted Investments shall mature not later than the
Business Day immediately preceding the first Distribution Date that follows
the date of such investment (except that if such Permitted Investment is an
obligation of the institution that maintains the Carryover Reserve Fund, then
such Permitted Investment shall mature not later than such Distribution Date)
and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to maturity. All such Permitted
Investments shall be made in the name of the Trustee, for the benefit of the
Holders of the Class C Certificates. In the absence of such written direction,
59
all funds in the Carryover Reserve Fund shall be invested by the Trustee in
The Bank of New York cash reserves. Any net investment earnings on such
amounts shall be retained therein until withdrawn as provided in Section 3.08.
Any losses incurred in the Carryover Reserve Fund in respect of any such
investments shall be charged against amounts on deposit in the Carryover
Reserve Fund (or such investments) immediately as realized. The Trustee 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 Carryover Reserve Fund and made in
accordance with this Section 3.05. The Carryover Reserve Fund will not
constitute an asset of any REMIC created hereunder. The Class C Certificates
shall evidence ownership of the Carryover Reserve Fund for federal tax
purposes.
(h) On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain in its
name, in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Group 2 and Group 3
Certificates, the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund, and shall deposit $1,000
therein upon receipt from or on behalf of the Depositor of such amount. All
funds on deposit in the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund shall be held separate
and apart from, and shall not be commingled with, any other moneys, including
without limitation, other moneys held by the Trustee pursuant to this
Agreement.
On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall deposit into the Corridor
Contract Reserve Fund all amounts received in respect of the Corridor
Contracts for the related Interest Accrual Period. The Trustee shall make
withdrawals from the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund to make distributions
pursuant to Section 4.09 exclusively (other than as expressly provided for in
Section 3.08).
Funds in the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund may be invested in Permitted
Investments at the direction of UBS Securities LLC, which Permitted
Investments shall mature not later than the Business Day immediately preceding
the first Distribution Date that follows the date of such investment (except
that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the institution that
maintains the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund, then such Permitted Investment
shall mature not later than such Distribution Date) and shall not be sold or
disposed of prior to maturity. All such Permitted Investments shall be made in
the name of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Group 2 and
Group 3 Certificates. In the absence of such written direction, all funds in
the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund shall be invested by the Trustee in The
Bank of New York cash reserves. Any net investment earnings on such amounts
shall be retained therein until withdrawn as provided in Section 3.08. Any
losses incurred in the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund in respect of any such
investments shall be charged against amounts on deposit in the Corridor
Contract Reserve Fund (or such investments) immediately as realized. The
Trustee 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 Corridor Contract
Reserve Fund and made in accordance with this Section 3.05. The Corridor
Contract Reserve Fund will not constitute an asset of any REMIC created
hereunder.
SECTION 3.06. Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Escrow
Accounts.
(a) To the extent required by the related Mortgage Note and not violative
of current law, the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more
accounts (each, an "Escrow Account") and deposit and retain therein all
collections from the Mortgagors (or advances by the Master Servicer) for the
payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums or
60
comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors. Nothing in this Agreement
shall require the Master Servicer to compel a Mortgagor to establish an Escrow
Account in violation of applicable law.
(b) Withdrawals of amounts so collected from the Escrow Accounts may be
made only to effect timely payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance
premiums, condominium or PUD association dues, or comparable items, to
reimburse the Master Servicer out of related collections for any payments made
pursuant to Sections 3.01 (with respect to taxes and assessments and insurance
premiums) and 3.09 (with respect to hazard insurance), to refund to any
Mortgagors any sums determined to be overages, to pay interest, if required by
law or the terms of the related Mortgage or Mortgage Note, to Mortgagors on
balances in the Escrow Account or to clear and terminate the Escrow Account at
the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.01. The Escrow
Accounts shall not be a part of the Trust Fund.
(c) The Master Servicer shall advance any payments referred to in Section
3.06(a) that are not timely paid by the Mortgagors on the date when the tax,
premium or other cost for which such payment is intended is due, but the
Master Servicer shall be required so to advance only to the extent that such
advances, in the good faith judgment of the Master Servicer, will be
recoverable by the Master Servicer out of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation
Proceeds or otherwise.
SECTION 3.07. Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding
the Mortgage Loans.
The Master Servicer shall afford each Seller, the Depositor, the NIM
Insurer and the Trustee reasonable access to all records and documentation
regarding the Mortgage Loans and all accounts, insurance information and other
matters relating to this Agreement, such access being afforded without charge,
but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the
office designated by the Master Servicer.
Upon reasonable advance notice in writing, the Master Servicer will
provide to each Certificateholder and/or Certificate Owner which is a savings
and loan association, bank or insurance company certain reports and reasonable
access to information and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans
sufficient to permit such Certificateholder and/or Certificate Owner to comply
with applicable regulations of the OTS or other regulatory authorities with
respect to investment in the Certificates; provided that the Master Servicer
shall be entitled to be reimbursed by each such Certificateholder and/or
Certificate Owner for actual expenses incurred by the Master Servicer in
providing such reports and access. Upon request, the Master Servicer shall
furnish to the Trustee and the NIM Insurer its most recent publicly available
financial statements and any other information relating to its capacity to
perform its obligations under this Agreement reasonably requested by the NIM
Insurer.
SECTION 3.08. Permitted Withdrawals from the Certificate
Account, the Distribution Account, the Carryover
Reserve Fund; the Principal Reserve Fund and the
Corridor Contract Reserve Fund.
(a) The Master Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the
Certificate Account for the following purposes:
61
(i) to pay to the Master Servicer (to the extent not previously
retained by the Master Servicer) the servicing compensation to which it
is entitled pursuant to Section 3.14 and to pay to the Master Servicer,
as additional servicing compensation, earnings on or investment income
with respect to funds in or credited to the Certificate Account;
(ii) to reimburse each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee for
unreimbursed Advances made by it, such right of reimbursement pursuant to
this subclause (ii) being limited to amounts received on the Mortgage
Loan(s) in respect of which any such Advance was made;
(iii) to reimburse each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee for
any Nonrecoverable Advance previously made by it;
(iv) to reimburse the Master Servicer for Insured Expenses from the
related Insurance Proceeds;
(v) to reimburse the Master Servicer for (a) unreimbursed Servicing
Advances, the Master Servicer's right to reimbursement pursuant to this
clause (a) with respect to any Mortgage Loan being limited to amounts
received on such Mortgage Loan(s) that represent late recoveries of the
payments for which such advances were made pursuant to Section 3.01 or
Section 3.06 and (b) for unpaid Master Servicing Fees as provided in
Section 3.11;
(vi) to pay to the purchaser, with respect to each Mortgage Loan or
property acquired in respect thereof that has been purchased pursuant to
Section 2.02, 2.03 or 3.11, all amounts received on such Mortgage Loan
after the date of such purchase;
(vii) to reimburse the Sellers, the Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer

(x) to clear and terminate the Certificate Account upon termination
of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01.
The Master Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a
Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any
withdrawal from the Certificate Account pursuant to such subclauses (i), (ii),
(iv), (v) and (vi). Prior to making any withdrawal from the Certificate
Account pursuant to subclause (iii), the Master Servicer shall deliver to the
Trustee an Officer's Certificate of a Servicing Officer indicating the amount
of any previous Advance
62
determined by the Master Servicer to be a Nonrecoverable Advance and
identifying the related Mortgage Loans(s), and their respective portions of
such Nonrecoverable Advance.
(b) The Trustee shall withdraw funds from the Distribution Account for
distributions to Certificateholders, in the manner specified in this Agreement
(and to withhold from the amounts so withdrawn, the amount of any taxes that
it is authorized to withhold pursuant to the third to last paragraph of
Section 8.11). In addition, the Trustee may from time to time make withdrawals
from the Distribution Account for the following purposes:
(i) to pay to itself the Trustee Fee for the related Distribution
Date;
(ii) to pay to the Master Servicer as additional servicing
compensation earnings on or investment income with respect to funds in
the Distribution Account;
(iii) to withdraw and return to the Master Servicer any amount
deposited in the Distribution Account and not required to be deposited
therein;
(iv) to reimburse the Trustee for any unreimbursed Advances made by
it pursuant to Section 4.01(b) hereof, such right of reimbursement
pursuant to this subclause (iv) being limited to (x) amounts received on
the related Mortgage Loan(s) in respect of which any such Advance was
made and (y) amounts not otherwise reimbursed to the Trustee pursuant to
Section 3.08(a)(ii) hereof;
(v) to reimburse the Trustee for any Nonrecoverable Advance
previously made by the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01(b) hereof, such

3.08(a)(iii) hereof; and
(vi) to clear and terminate the Distribution Account upon
termination of the Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01.
(c) The Trustee shall withdraw funds from the Carryover Reserve Fund for
distribution to the LIBOR Certificates and the Classes of Class C Certificates
in the manner specified in Section 4.02(d) (and to withhold from the amounts
so withdrawn the amount of any taxes that it is authorized to retain pursuant
to the last paragraph of Section 8.11). In addition, the Trustee may from time
to time make withdrawals from the Carryover Reserve Fund for the following
purposes:
(i) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Carryover Reserve Fund
and not required to be deposited therein; and
(ii) to clear and terminate the Carryover Reserve Fund upon the
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01.
(d) The Trustee shall withdraw funds from the Corridor Contract Reserve
Fund for distribution to the Group 2 and Group 3 Certificates in the manner
specified in Section 4.09 (and to withhold from the amounts so withdrawn the
amount of any taxes that it is authorized to retain pursuant to the second to
last paragraph of Section 8.11). In addition, the Trustee may from time to
time make withdrawals from the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund for the
following purposes:
63
(i) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Corridor Contract
Reserve Fund and not required to be deposited therein; and
(ii) to clear and terminate the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund upon
the earlier of (A) the last Corridor Contract Scheduled Termination Date
and (B) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01.
(e) On the Business Day before any Class P Principal Distribution Date,
the Trustee shall transfer $100.00 from the Principal Reserve Fund to the
Distribution Account and shall distribute such amount to the applicable Class
P Certificates on the related Class P Principal Distribution Date. Following
the distribution on the last Class P Distribution Date to be made in
accordance with the preceding sentence, the Trustee shall then terminate the
Principal Reserve Fund.
SECTION 3.09. Maintenance of Hazard Insurance; Maintenance of Primary
Insurance Policies.
(a) The Master Servicer shall cause to be maintained, for each Mortgage
Loan, hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount that is at least
equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements
securing such Mortgage Loan or (ii) the greater of (y) the outstanding
principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (z) an amount such that the
proceeds of such policy shall be sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor and/or
the mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer. Each such policy of standard hazard
insurance shall contain, or have an accompanying endorsement that contains, a
standard mortgagee clause. Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer under
any such policies (other than the amounts to be applied to the restoration or
repair of the related Mortgaged Property or amounts released to the Mortgagor
in accordance with the Master Servicer's normal servicing procedures) shall be
deposited in the Certificate Account. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer
in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating
monthly distributions to the Certificateholders or remittances to the Trustee
for their benefit, be added to the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan,
notwithstanding that the terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit. Such costs
shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer out of late payments by the
related Mortgagor or out of proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan or
Subsequent Recoveries to the extent permitted by Section 3.08. It is
understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to
be required of any Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in respect of
a Mortgage other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as
shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance.
If the Mortgaged Property is located at the time of origination of the
Mortgage Loan in a federally designated special flood hazard area and such
area is participating in the national flood insurance program, the Master
Servicer shall cause flood insurance to be maintained with respect to such
Mortgage Loan. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the least
of (i) the outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, (ii)
the replacement value of the improvements which are part of such Mortgaged
Property, and (iii) the maximum amount of such insurance available for the
related Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance program.
(b) [Reserved].
64
(c) The Master Servicer shall not take any action which would result in
non-coverage under any applicable Primary Insurance Policy of any loss which,
but for the actions of the Master Servicer, would have been covered
thereunder. The Master Servicer shall not cancel or refuse to renew any such
Primary Insurance Policy that is in effect at the date of the initial issuance
of the Certificates and is required to be kept in force hereunder unless the
replacement Primary Insurance Policy for such canceled or non-renewed policy
is maintained with a Qualified Insurer.
Except with respect to any Lender PMI Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer
shall not be required to maintain any Primary Insurance Policy (i) with
respect to any Mortgage Loan with a Loan-to-Value Ratio less than or equal to
80% as of any date of determination or, based on a new appraisal, the
principal balance of such Mortgage Loan represents 80% or less of the new
appraised value or (ii) if maintaining such Primary Insurance Policy is
prohibited by applicable law. With respect to the Lender PMI Mortgage Loans,
the Master Servicer shall maintain the Primary Insurance Policy for the life
of such Mortgage Loans, unless otherwise provided for in the related Mortgage
Note or prohibited by law.
The Master Servicer agrees to effect the timely payment of the premiums
on each Primary Insurance Policy, and such costs not otherwise recoverable
shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer from the related proceeds of
liquidation and Subsequent Recoveries.
(d) In connection with its activities as Master Servicer of the Mortgage
Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to present on behalf of itself, the Trustee
and Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any Primary Insurance
Policies and, in this regard, to take such reasonable action as shall be
necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Insurance Policies respecting
defaulted Mortgage Loans. Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer under
any Primary Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Certificate Account.
SECTION 3.10. Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section, when any property
subject to a Mortgage has been conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer
shall to the extent that it has knowledge of such conveyance, enforce any
due-on-sale clause contained in any Mortgage Note or Mortgage, to the extent
permitted under applicable law and governmental regulations, but only to the
extent that such enforcement will not adversely affect or jeopardize coverage
under any Required Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master
Servicer is not required to exercise such rights with respect to a Mortgage
Loan if the Person to whom the related Mortgaged Property has been conveyed or
is proposed to be conveyed satisfies the terms and conditions contained in the
Mortgage Note and Mortgage related thereto and the consent of the mortgagee
under such Mortgage Note or Mortgage is not otherwise so required under such
Mortgage Note or Mortgage as a condition to such transfer. In the event that
the Master Servicer is prohibited by law from enforcing any such due-on-sale
clause, or if coverage under any Required Insurance Policy would be adversely
affected, or if nonenforcement is otherwise permitted hereunder, the Master
Servicer is authorized, subject to Section 3.10(b), to take or enter into an
assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to whom such
property has been or is about to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person
becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, unless prohibited by applicable
state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon, provided that the Mortgage
Loan shall continue to be covered (if so covered
65
before the Master Servicer enters such agreement) by the applicable Required
Insurance Policies. The Master Servicer, subject to Section 3.10(b), is also
authorized with the prior approval of the insurers under any Required
Insurance Policies to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with
such Person, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from
liability and such Person is substituted as Mortgagor and becomes liable under
the Mortgage Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall
not be deemed to be in default under this Section by reason of any transfer or
assumption which the Master Servicer reasonably believes it is restricted by
law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever.
(b) Subject to the Master Servicer's duty to enforce any due-on-sale
clause to the extent set forth in Section 3.10(a), in any case in which a
Mortgaged Property has been conveyed to a Person by a Mortgagor, and such
Person is to enter into an assumption agreement or modification agreement or
supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage that requires the signature of the
Trustee, or if an instrument of release signed by the Trustee is required
releasing the Mortgagor from liability on the Mortgage Loan, the Master
Servicer shall prepare and deliver or cause to be prepared and delivered to
the Trustee for signature and shall direct, in writing, the Trustee to execute
the assumption agreement with the Person to whom the Mortgaged Property is to
be conveyed and such modification agreement or supplement to the Mortgage Note
or Mortgage or other instruments as are reasonable or necessary to carry out
the terms of the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise to comply with any
applicable laws regarding assumptions or the transfer of the Mortgaged
Property to such Person. In connection with any such assumption, no material
term of the Mortgage Note may be changed. In addition, the substitute
Mortgagor and the Mortgaged Property must be acceptable to the Master Servicer
in accordance with its underwriting standards as then in effect. Together with
each such substitution, assumption or other agreement or instrument delivered
to the Trustee for execution by it, the Master Servicer shall deliver an
Officer's Certificate signed by a Servicing Officer stating that the
requirements of this subsection have been met in connection therewith. The
Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee that any such substitution or
assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Trustee the
original of such substitution or assumption agreement, which in the case of
the original shall be added to the related Mortgage File and shall, for all
purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all
other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof. Any fee collected
by the Master Servicer for entering into an assumption or substitution of
liability agreement will be retained by the Master Servicer as additional
servicing compensation.
SECTION 3.11. Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans; Repurchase of
Certain Mortgage Loans.
(a) The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to foreclose upon or
otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the
Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no
satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments.
In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion, the Master Servicer
shall follow such practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or
advisable and as shall be normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing
activities and meet the requirements of the insurer under any Required
Insurance Policy; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not be
required to expend its own funds in connection with any foreclosure or towards
the restoration of any property unless it shall determine (i) that such
restoration and/or foreclosure will increase the proceeds of liquidation of
the Mortgage Loan after reimbursement
66
to itself of such expenses and (ii) that such expenses will be recoverable
to it through the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan and
Subsequent Recoveries (respecting which it shall have priority for purposes of
withdrawals from the Certificate Account). The Master Servicer shall be
responsible for all other costs and expenses incurred by it in any such
proceedings; provided, however, that it shall be entitled to reimbursement
thereof from the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan and Subsequent
Recoveries with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, as provided in the
definition of Liquidation Proceeds. If the Master Servicer has knowledge that
a Mortgaged Property which the Master Servicer is contemplating acquiring in
foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is located within a 1 mile
radius of any site listed in the Expenditure Plan for the Hazardous Substance
Clean Up Bond Act of 1984 or other site with environmental or hazardous waste
risks known to the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer will, prior to
acquiring the Mortgaged Property, consider such risks and only take action in
accordance with its established environmental review procedures.
With respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale shall
be taken in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders,
or its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders. The Trustee's name shall
be placed on the title to such REO Property solely as the Trustee hereunder
and not in its individual capacity. The Master Servicer shall ensure that the
title to such REO Property references the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and
the Trustee's capacity thereunder. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO
Property, the Master Servicer shall either itself or through an agent selected
by the Master Servicer protect and conserve such REO Property in the same
manner and to such extent as is customary in the locality where such REO
Property is located and may, incident to its conservation and protection of
the interests of the Certificateholders, rent the same, or any part thereof,
as the Master Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the
Certificateholders for the period prior to the sale of such REO Property. The
Master Servicer shall prepare for and deliver to the Trustee a statement with
respect to each REO Property that has been rented showing the aggregate rental
income received and all expenses incurred in connection with the maintenance
of such REO Property at such times as is necessary to enable the Trustee to
comply with the reporting requirements of the REMIC Provisions. The net
monthly rental income, if any, from such REO Property shall be deposited in
the Certificate Account no later than the close of business on each
Determination Date. The Master Servicer shall perform the tax reporting and
withholding required by Sections 1445 and 6050J of the Code with respect to
foreclosures and abandonments, the tax reporting required by Section 6050H of
the Code with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest from individuals and
any tax reporting required by Section 6050P of the Code with respect to the
cancellation of indebtedness by certain financial entities, by preparing such
tax and information returns as may be required, in the form required, and
delivering the same to the Trustee for filing.
In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any Mortgaged Property as
aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged Property as
soon as practicable in a manner that maximizes the Liquidation Proceeds
thereof, but in no event later than three years after its acquisition by the
Trust Fund. In that event, the Trustee shall have been supplied with an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such
Mortgaged Property subsequent to a three-year period, if applicable, will not
result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of any REMIC
hereunder as defined in Section 860F of the Code or cause any REMIC hereunder
to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are
67
outstanding, and that the Trust Fund may continue to hold such Mortgaged
Property (subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion of Counsel)
after the expiration of such three-year period. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, no Mortgaged Property acquired by the Trust Fund
shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used for
the production of income by or on behalf of the Trust Fund 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 or (ii) subject any REMIC 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 has
agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund with respect to the
imposition of any such taxes.
In the event of a default on a Mortgage Loan one or more of whose obligor
is not a United States Person, as that term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30)
of the Code, in connection with any foreclosure or acquisition of a deed in
lieu of foreclosure (together, "foreclosure") in respect of such Mortgage
Loan, the Master Servicer will cause compliance with the provisions of
Treasury Regulation Section 1.1445-2(d)(3) (or any successor thereto)
necessary to assure that no withholding tax obligation arises with respect to
the proceeds of such foreclosure except to the extent, if any, that proceeds
of such foreclosure are required to be remitted to the obligors on such
Mortgage Loan.
The decision of the Master Servicer to foreclose on a defaulted Mortgage
Loan shall be subject to a determination by the Master Servicer that the
proceeds of such foreclosure would exceed the costs and expenses of bringing
such a proceeding. The income earned from the management of any REO
Properties, net of reimbursement to the Master Servicer for expenses incurred
(including any property or other taxes) in connection with such management and
net of unreimbursed Master Servicing Fees, Advances and Servicing Advances,
shall be applied to the payment of principal of and interest on the related
defaulted Mortgage Loans (with interest accruing as though such Mortgage Loans
were still current) and all such income shall be deemed, for all purposes in
this Agreement, to be payments on account of principal and interest on the
related Mortgage Notes and shall be deposited into the Certificate Account. To
the extent the net income received during any calendar month is in excess of
the amount attributable to amortizing principal and accrued interest at the
related Mortgage Rate on the related Mortgage Loan for such calendar month,
such excess shall be considered to be a partial prepayment of principal of the
related Mortgage Loan.
The proceeds from any liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, as well as any
income from an REO Property, will be applied in the following order of
priority: first, to reimburse the Master Servicer for any related unreimbursed
Servicing Advances and Master Servicing Fees; second, to reimburse the Master
Servicer or the trustee for any unreimbursed Advances; third, to reimburse the
Certificate Account for any Nonrecoverable Advances (or portions thereof) that
were previously withdrawn by the Master Servicer or the Trustee pursuant to
Section 3.08(a)(iii) that related to such Mortgage Loan; fourth, to accrued
and unpaid interest (to the extent no Advance has been made for such amount or
any such Advance has been reimbursed) on the Mortgage Loan or related REO
Property, at the Adjusted Net Mortgage Rate to the Due Date occurring in the
month in which such amounts are required to be distributed; and fifth, as a
recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan. Excess Proceeds, if any, from the
liquidation of a Liquidated
68
Mortgage Loan will be retained by the Master Servicer as additional servicing
compensation pursuant to Section 3.14.
The Master Servicer, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to
purchase for its own account from the Trust Fund any Mortgage Loan which is
151 days or more delinquent at a price equal to the Purchase Price; provided,
however, that the Master Servicer may only exercise this right on or before
the next to the last day of the calendar month in which such Mortgage Loan
became 151 days delinquent (such month, the "Eligible Repurchase Month");
provided further, that any such Mortgage Loan which becomes current but
thereafter becomes delinquent may be purchased by the Master Servicer pursuant
to this Section in any ensuing Eligible Repurchase Month. The Purchase Price
for any Mortgage Loan purchased under this Section 3.11 shall be deposited in
the Certificate Account and the Trustee, upon receipt of a certificate from
the Master Servicer in the form of Exhibit N to this Agreement, shall release
or cause to be released to the purchaser of such Mortgage Loan the related
Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or
assignment prepared by the purchaser of such Mortgage Loan, in each case
without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the purchaser of such
Mortgage Loan any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and the purchaser of
such Mortgage Loan shall succeed to all the Trustee's right, title and
interest in and to such Mortgage Loan and all security and documents related
thereto. Such assignment shall be an assignment outright and not for security.
The purchaser of such Mortgage Loan shall thereupon own such Mortgage Loan,
and all security and documents, free of any further obligation to the Trustee
or the Certificateholders with respect thereto.
(b) The Master Servicer may agree to a modification of any Mortgage Loan
(the "Modified Mortgage Loan") if (i) the modification is in lieu of a
refinancing and (ii) the Mortgage Rate on the Modified Mortgage Loan is
approximately a prevailing market rate for newly-originated mortgage loans
having similar terms and (iii) Counrywide Home Loans purchases the Modified
Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund as described below. Effective immediately
after the modification, and, in any event, on the same Business Day on which
the modification occurs, all interest of the Trustee in the Modified Mortgage
Loan shall automatically be deemed transferred and assigned to Counrywide Home
Loans and all benefits and burdens of ownership thereof, including the right
to accrued interest thereon from the date of modification and the risk of
default thereon, shall pass to Counrywide Home Loans. The Master Servicer
shall promptly deliver to the Trustee a certification of a Servicing Officer
to the effect that all requirements of this paragraph have been satisfied with
respect to the Modified Mortgage Loan. For federal income tax purposes, the
Trustee shall account for such purchase as a prepayment in full of the
Modified Mortgage Loan.
Counrywide Home Loans shall remit the Purchase Price for any Modified
Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Certificate Account
pursuant to Section 3.05 within one Business Day after the purchase of the
Modified Mortgage Loan. Upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification of
any such deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall release to
Countrywide Home Loans the related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver
such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as
shall be necessary to vest in the Counrywide Home Loans any Modified Mortgage
Loan previously transferred and assigned pursuant hereto. The Master Servicer
covenants and agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund against any liability for any
"prohibited transaction" taxes and any related interest, additions, and
penalties imposed on the Trust Fund established hereunder as a result of
69
any modification of a Mortgage Loan effected pursuant to this subsection (b),
any holding of a Modified Mortgage Loan by the Trust Fund or any purchase of a
Modified Mortgage Loan by Counrywide Home Loans (but such obligation shall not
prevent the Master Servicer or any other appropriate Person from in good faith
contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the
Master Servicer from withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law,
pending the outcome of such proceedings). The Master Servicer shall have no
right of reimbursement for any amount paid pursuant to the foregoing
indemnification, except to the extent that the amount of any tax, interest,
and penalties, together with interest thereon, is refunded to the Trust Fund
or Counrywide Home Loans.
SECTION 3.12. Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.
Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the
Master Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a
manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer will immediately
notify the Trustee by delivering, or causing to be delivered a "Request for
Release" substantially in the form of Exhibit N of this Agreement. Upon
receipt of such request, the Trustee shall promptly release the related
Mortgage File to the Master Servicer, and the Trustee shall at the Master
Servicer's direction execute and deliver to the Master Servicer the request
for reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or release or satisfaction of mortgage
or such instrument releasing the lien of the Mortgage in each case provided by
the Master Servicer, together with the Mortgage Note with written evidence of
cancellation on the Mortgage Note. The Master Servicer is authorized to cause
the removal from the registration on the MERS(R) System of such Mortgage and
to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders or
any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation or of
partial or full release. Expenses incurred in connection with any instrument
of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the related
Mortgagor. 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 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 shall, upon delivery to the Trustee of a Request
for Release in the form of Exhibit M signed by a Servicing Officer, release
the Mortgage File to the Master Servicer. Subject to the further limitations
set forth below, the Master Servicer shall cause the Mortgage File or
documents so released to be returned to the Trustee when the need therefor by
the Master Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan is liquidated
and the proceeds thereof are deposited in the Certificate Account, in which
case the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee a Request for Release in
the form of Exhibit N, signed by a Servicing Officer.
If the Master Servicer at any time seeks to initiate a foreclosure
proceeding in respect of any Mortgaged Property as authorized by this
Agreement, the Master 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.
70
SECTION 3.13. Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of Master
Servicer to be Held for the Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Master
Servicer shall transmit to the Trustee as required by this Agreement all
documents and instruments in respect of a Mortgage Loan coming into the
possession of the Master Servicer from time to time and shall account fully to
the Trustee for any funds received by the Master Servicer or which otherwise
are collected by the Master Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance
Proceeds or Subsequent Recoveries in respect of any Mortgage Loan. All
Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the
Master Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether from the collection
of principal and interest payments or from Liquidation Proceeds and any
Subsequent Recoveries, including but not limited to, any funds on deposit in
the Certificate Account, shall be held by the Master Servicer for and on
behalf of the Trustee and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property
of the Trustee, subject to the applicable provisions of this Agreement. The
Master Servicer also agrees that it shall not create, incur or subject any
Mortgage File or any funds that are deposited in the Certificate Account,
Distribution Account or any Escrow Account, or any funds that otherwise are or
may become due or payable to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, to any claim, lien, security interest, judgment, levy,
writ of attachment or other encumbrance, or assert by legal action or
otherwise any claim or right of setoff against any Mortgage File or any funds
collected on, or in connection with, a Mortgage Loan, except, however, that
the 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 3.14. Servicing Compensation.
As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Master Servicer shall
be entitled to retain or withdraw from the Certificate Account an amount equal
to the Master Servicing Fee; provided, that the aggregate Master Servicing Fee
with respect to any Distribution Date shall be reduced (i) by an amount equal
to the aggregate of the Prepayment Interest Shortfalls, if any, with respect
to such Distribution Date, but not by more than the Compensating Interest for
that Distribution Date, and (ii) with respect to the first Distribution Date,
an amount equal to any amount to be deposited into the Distribution Account by
the Depositor pursuant to Section 2.01(a) and not so deposited.
Additional servicing compensation in the form of Excess Proceeds,
Prepayment Interest Excess, assumption fees, late payment charges and all
income and gain net of any losses realized from Permitted Investments shall be
retained by the Master Servicer to the extent not required to be deposited in
the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 3.05. The Master Servicer shall be
required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its master
servicing activities hereunder (including payment of any premiums for hazard
insurance and any Primary Insurance Policy and maintenance of the other forms
of insurance coverage required by this Agreement) and shall not be entitled to
reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided in this Agreement.
71
SECTION 3.15. Access to Certain Documentation.
The Master Servicer shall provide to the OTS and the FDIC and to
comparable regulatory authorities supervising Holders and/or Certificate
Owners and the examiners and supervisory agents of the OTS, the FDIC and such
other authorities, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans
required by applicable regulations of the OTS and the FDIC. 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. Nothing in this Section shall limit the obligation of the Master
Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information
regarding the Mortgagors and the failure of the Master Servicer to provide
access as provided in this Section as a result of such obligation shall not

ARTICLE IV
DISTRIBUTIONS AND
ADVANCES BY THE MASTER SERVICER
SECTION 4.01. Advances.
(a) The Master Servicer shall determine on or before each Master Servicer
Advance Date whether it is required to make an Advance pursuant to the
definition thereof. If the Master Servicer determines it is required to make
an Advance, it shall, on or before the Master Servicer Advance Date, either
(i) deposit into the Certificate Account an amount equal to the Advance or
(ii) make an appropriate entry in its records relating to the Certificate
Account that any Amount Held for Future Distribution has been used by the
Master Servicer in discharge of its obligation to make any such Advance. Any
funds so applied shall be replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the
Certificate Account no later than the close of business on the next Master
Servicer Advance Date. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed
from the Certificate Account for all Advances of its own funds made pursuant
to this Section as provided in Section 3.08. The obligation to make Advances
with respect to any Mortgage Loan shall continue if such Mortgage Loan has
been foreclosed or otherwise terminated and the related Mortgaged Property has
not been liquidated.
(b) If the Master Servicer determines that it will be unable to comply
with its obligation to make the Advances as and when described in the second
sentence of Section 4.01(a), it shall use its best efforts to give written
notice thereof to the Trustee (each such notice a "Trustee Advance Notice";
and such notice may be given by telecopy), not later than 3:00 P.M., New York
time, on the Business Day immediately preceding the related Master Servicer
Advance Date, specifying the amount that it will be unable to deposit (each
such amount an "Advance Deficiency") and certifying that such Advance
Deficiency constitutes an Advance hereunder and is not a Nonrecoverable
Advance. If the Trustee receives a Trustee Advance Notice on or before 3:30
P.M., New York time on a Master Servicer Advance Date, the Trustee shall, not
later than 3:00 P.M., New York time, on the related Distribution Date, deposit
in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the Advance Deficiency
identified in such Trustee Advance Notice unless it is prohibited from so
doing by applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall not
be required to make such deposit if the Trustee shall have received written
notification from the Master Servicer that the Master Servicer has deposited
or caused to be deposited in the Certificate Account an amount equal to such
Advance Deficiency. All Advances made by the Trustee pursuant to this Section
4.01(b) shall accrue interest on behalf of the Trustee at the Trustee Advance
Rate from and including the date such Advances are made to but excluding the
date of repayment, with such interest being an obligation of the Master
Servicer and not the Trust Fund. The Master Servicer shall reimburse the
Trustee for the amount of any Advance made by the Trustee pursuant to this
Section 4.01(b) together with accrued interest, not later than the fifth day
following the related Master Servicer Advance Date. In the event that the
Master Servicer does not reimburse the Trustee in accordance with the
requirements of the preceding sentence, the Trustee shall have the right, but
not the obligation, to immediately (a) terminate all of the rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement in accordance with
Section 7.01 and (b) subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.04,
assume all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder.

Master Servicer has determined that the related Scheduled Payments should be
advanced and (ii) the amount of the related Scheduled Payments. The Master
Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee on the related Master Servicer Advance

any proposed Advance determined by the Master Servicer to be a Nonrecoverable
Advance.

Trustee will forward by mail to each Rating Agency and make available to
Certificateholders on the Trustee's website
(xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx) a statement generally setting forth the

Trustee (which delivery may be by electronic data transmission) a report in
substantially the form set forth as Schedule VI to this Agreement.

SECTION 4.07. Determination of Pass-Through Rates for COFI Certificates.
The Pass-Through Rate for each Class of COFI Certificates for each
Interest Accrual Period after the initial Interest Accrual Period shall be
determined by the Trustee as provided below on the basis of the Index and the
applicable formulae appearing in footnotes corresponding to the COFI
Certificates in the table relating to the Certificates in the Preliminary

Except as provided below, with respect to each Interest Accrual Period
following the initial Interest Accrual Period, the Trustee shall not later
than two Business Days prior to such Interest Accrual Period but following the
publication of the applicable Index determine the Pass-Through Rate at which
interest shall accrue in respect of the COFI Certificates during the related

Except as provided below, the Index to be used in determining the
respective Pass-Through Rates for the COFI Certificates for a particular
Interest Accrual Period shall be COFI
81
for the second calendar month preceding the Outside Reference Date for such
Interest Accrual Period. If at the Outside Reference Date for any Interest
Accrual Period, COFI for the second calendar month preceding such Outside
Reference Date has not been published, the Trustee shall use COFI for the third
calendar month preceding such Outside Reference Date. If COFI for neither the
second nor third calendar months preceding any Outside Reference Date has been
published on or before the related Outside Reference Date, the Index for such
Interest Accrual Period and for all subsequent Interest Accrual Periods shall be
the National Cost of Funds Index for the third calendar month preceding such
Interest Accrual Period (or the fourth preceding calendar month if such National
Cost of Funds Index for the third preceding calendar month has not been
published by such Outside Reference Date). In the event that the National Cost
of Funds Index for neither the third nor fourth calendar months preceding an
Interest Accrual Period has been published on or before the related Outside
Reference Date, then for such Interest Accrual Period and for each succeeding
Interest Accrual Period, the Index shall be LIBOR, determined in the manner set
forth below.
With respect to any Interest Accrual Period for which the applicable Index
is LIBOR, LIBOR for such Interest Accrual Period will be established by the
Trustee on the related Interest Determination Date as provided in Section 4.08.
In determining LIBOR and any Pass-Through Rate for the COFI Certificates or
any Reserve Interest Rate, the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be
protected in relying upon the offered quotations (whether written, oral or on
the Reuters Screen) from the Reference Banks or the New York City banks as to
LIBOR or the Reserve Interest Rate, as appropriate, in effect from time to time.
The Trustee shall not have any liability or responsibility to any Person for (i)
the Trustee's selection of New York City banks for purposes of determining any
Reserve Interest Rate or (ii) its inability, following a good-faith reasonable
effort, to obtain such quotations from the Reference Banks or the New York City
banks or to determine such arithmetic mean, all as provided for in this Section
4.07.
The establishment of LIBOR and each Pass-Through Rate for the COFI
Certificates by the Trustee shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final,
conclusive and binding upon each Holder of a Certificate and the Trustee.
SECTION 4.08. Determination of Pass-Through Rates for LIBOR Certificates.
(a) On each Interest Determination Date so long as any LIBOR Certificates
are outstanding, the Trustee will determine LIBOR on the basis of the British
Bankers' Association ("BBA") "Interest Settlement Rate" for one-month deposits
in U.S. dollars as quoted on the Bloomberg Terminal as of each LIBOR
Determination Date.
(b) If on any Interest Determination Date, LIBOR cannot be determined as
provided in paragraph (A) of this Section 4.08, the Trustee shall either (i)
request each Reference Bank to inform the Trustee of the quotation offered by
its principal London office for making one-month United States dollar deposits
in leading banks in the London interbank market, as of 11:00 a.m. (London time)
on such Interest Determination Date or (ii) in lieu of making any such request,
rely on such Reference Bank quotations that appear at such time on the Reuters
Screen LIBO Page (as defined in the International Swap Dealers Association Inc.
Code of Standard Wording, Assumptions and Provisions for Swaps, 1986 Edition),
to the extent available. LIBOR for the
82
next Interest Accrual Period will be established by the Trustee on each interest
Determination Date as follows:
(i) If on any Interest Determination Date two or more Reference Banks
provide such offered quotations, LIBOR for the next applicable Interest
Accrual Period shall be the arithmetic mean of such offered quotations
(rounding such arithmetic mean upwards if necessary to the nearest whole
multiple of 1/32%).
(ii) If on any Interest Determination Date only one or none of the
Reference Banks provides such offered quotations, LIBOR for the next
Interest Accrual Period shall be whichever is the higher of (i) LIBOR as
determined on the previous Interest Determination Date or (ii) the Reserve
Interest Rate. The "Reserve Interest Rate" shall be the rate per annum
which the Trustee determines to be either (i) the arithmetic mean (rounded
upwards if necessary to the nearest whole multiple of 1/32%) of the
one-month United States dollar lending rates that New York City banks
selected by the Trustee are quoting, on the relevant Interest Determination
Date, to the principal London offices of at least two of the Reference
Banks to which such quotations are, in the opinion of the Trustee, being so
made, or (ii) in the event that the Trustee can determine no such
arithmetic mean, the lowest one-month United States dollar lending rate
which New York City banks selected by the Trustee are quoting on such
Interest Determination Date to leading European banks.
(iii) If on any Interest Determination Date the Trustee is required
but is unable to determine the Reserve Interest Rate in the manner provided
in paragraph (b) above, LIBOR for the related Classes of Certificates shall
be LIBOR as determined on the preceding applicable Interest Determination
Date or in the case of the first Distribution Date, 4.56%.
Until all of the LIBOR Certificates are paid in full, the Trustee will at
all times retain at least four Reference Banks for the purpose of determining
LIBOR with respect to each Interest Determination Date. The Master Servicer
initially shall designate the Reference Banks. Each "Reference Bank" shall be a
leading bank engaged in transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the international
Eurocurrency market, shall not control, be controlled by, or be under common
control with, the Trustee and shall have an established place of business in
London. If any such Reference Bank should be unwilling or unable to act as such
or if the Master Servicer should terminate its appointment as Reference Bank,
the Trustee shall promptly appoint or cause to be appointed another Reference
Bank. The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility to any Person for
(i) the selection of any Reference Bank for purposes of determining LIBOR or
(ii) any inability to retain at least four Reference Banks which is caused by
circumstances beyond its reasonable control.
(c) The Pass-Through Rate for each Class of LIBOR Certificates for each
Interest Accrual Period shall be determined by the Trustee on each Interest
Determination Date so long as the LIBOR Certificates are outstanding on the
basis of LIBOR and the respective formulae appearing in footnotes corresponding
to the LIBOR Certificates in the table relating to the Certificates in the
Preliminary Statement.
83
In determining LIBOR, any Pass-Through Rate for the LIBOR Certificates, any
Interest Settlement Rate, or any Reserve Interest Rate, the Trustee may
conclusively rely and shall be protected in relying upon the offered quotations
(whether written, oral or on the Dow Xxxxx Markets) from the BBA designated
banks, the Reference Banks or the New York City banks as to LIBOR, the Interest
Settlement Rate or the Reserve Interest Rate, as appropriate, in effect from
time to time. The Trustee shall not have any liability or responsibility to any
Person for (i) the Trustee's selection of New York City banks for purposes of
determining any Reserve Interest Rate or (ii) its inability, following a
good-faith reasonable effort, to obtain such quotations from, the BBA designated
banks, the Reference Banks or the New York City banks or to determine such
arithmetic mean, all as provided for in this Section 4.08.
The establishment of LIBOR and each Pass-Through Rate for the LIBOR
Certificates by the Trustee shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final,
conclusive and binding upon each Holder of a Certificate and the Trustee.
SECTION 4.09. Distributions from the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund.
On each Distribution Date on or prior to the earlier of (i) the Corridor
Contract Scheduled Termination Date and (ii) the date on which the Class
Certificate Balance of the Group 2 or Group 3 Certificates, as applicable, is
reduced to zero, amounts on deposit in the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund from
the Group 2 Corridor Contract will be withdrawn therefrom and, following all
other distributions on such Distribution Date, distributed to the Group 2
Certificates and amounts on deposit in the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund from
the Group 3 Corridor Contract will be withdrawn therefrom and distributed to the
Group 3 Certificates, to the extent needed to pay any Unpaid Realized Loss
Amount or Net Rate Carryover on the related Class of Certificates for such
Distribution Date, as follows:
(a) from amounts received under the Group 2 Corridor Contract,
sequentially as follows:
(1) sequentially, to the Class 2-A-1, Class 2-A-2, Class 2-A-3, Class
2-M-1, Class 2-M-2, Class 2-M-3, Class 2-M-4, Class 2-M-5, Class 2-M-6

remaining Unpaid Realized Loss Amount for each such Class;
(2) concurrently, to the Class 2-A-1, Class 2-A-2 and Class 2-A-3
Certificates, pro rata, in an amount equal to any remaining Net Rate
Carryover for each such Class;
(3) sequentially, to the Class 2-M-1, Class 2-M-2, Class 2-M-3, Class
2-M-4, Class 2-M-5, Class 2-M-6 and Class 2-M-7 Certificates, in that
order, in an amount equal to any remaining Net Rate Carryover for each
such Class; and
(4) to the Class 2-C Certificates, any remaining amount.
(b) from amounts received under the Group 3 Corridor Contract, sequentially
as follows:
84
(1) sequentially, to the Class 3-A-1, Class 3-A-2, Class 3-A-3, Class
3-M-1, Class 3-M-2, Class 3-M-3, Class 3-M-4, Class 3-M-5 and Class
3-M-6 Certificates, in that order, in an amount equal to any remaining
Unpaid Realized Loss Amount for each such Class;
(2) concurrently, to the Class 3-A-1, Class 3-A-2 and Class 3-A-3
Certificates, pro rata, in an amount equal to any remaining Net Rate
Carryover for each such Class;
(3) sequentially, to the Class 3-M-1, Class 3-M-2, Class 3-M-3, Class
3-M-4, Class 3-M-5 and Class 3-M-6 Certificates, in that order, in an
amount equal to any remaining Net Rate Carryover for each such Class;
and
(4) to the Class 3-C Certificates, any remaining amount.

Subject to Section 9.02 respecting the final distribution on the
Certificates, on each Distribution Date the Trustee shall make distributions to
each Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date either (x) by wire
transfer in immediately available funds to the account of such holder at a bank
or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if (i) such Holder has
so notified the Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the related Record
Date and (ii) such Holder shall hold (A) a Notional Amount Certificate, (B) 100%
of the Class Certificate Balance of any Class of Certificates or (C)
Certificates of any Class with aggregate principal Denominations of not less
than $1,000,000 or (y) by check mailed by first class mail to such
Certificateholder at the address of such holder appearing in the Certificate
Register.
The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on
behalf of the Trustee by an authorized officer. Certificates bearing the manual
or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such
signatures were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trustee shall bind
the Trustee, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to
be so authorized prior to the countersignature and delivery of such Certificates
or did not hold such offices at the date of such Certificate. No Certificate
shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any
purpose, unless countersigned by the Trustee by manual signature, and such
countersignature upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Certificate has been duly executed and delivered hereunder.
All Certificates shall be dated the date of their countersignature. On the
Closing Date, the Trustee shall countersign the Certificates to be issued at the
direction of the Depositor, or any affiliate of the Depositor.
The Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Trustee on a
continuous basis, an adequate inventory of Certificates to facilitate transfers.
SECTION 5.02. Certificate Register; Registration of Transfer and Exchange
of Certificates.
(a) The Trustee shall maintain, or cause to be maintained in accordance
with the provisions of Section 5.06, a Certificate Register for the Trust Fund
in which, subject to the provisions of subsections (b) and (c) below and to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the
registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as
provided in this Agreement. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any
Certificate, the Trustee shall execute and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of the same
Class and aggregate Percentage Interest.
At the option of a Certificateholder, Certificates may be exchanged for
other Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and evidencing
the same aggregate Percentage Interest upon surrender of the Certificates to be
exchanged at the office or agency of the Trustee. Whenever any Certificates are
so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate, and
deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is
entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for registration
of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer
in form satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by the holder thereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing.
87
No service charge to the Certificateholders shall be made for any
registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates may be required.
All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall
be cancelled and subsequently destroyed by the Trustee in accordance with the
Trustee's customary procedures.
(b) No transfer of a Private Certificate shall be made unless such transfer
is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act
and any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the registration
requirements under said Act and such state securities laws. In the event that a
transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act and
such laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities Act and such laws,
the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer and such
Certificateholder's prospective transferee shall each certify to the Trustee in
writing the facts surrounding the transfer in substantially the forms set forth
in Exhibit J (the "Transferor Certificate") and (i) deliver a letter in
substantially the form of either Exhibit K (the "Investment Letter") or Exhibit
L (the "Rule 144A Letter") or (ii) there shall be delivered to the Trustee at
the expense of the transferor an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer may be
made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act; provided, however, that
in the case of the delivery of an Investment Letter in connection with the
transfer of any Class C or Class P Certificate to a transferee that is formed
with the purpose of issuing notes backed by such Class C or Class P Certificate,
as the case may be, clause (b) and (c) of the form of Investment Letter shall
not be applicable and shall be deleted by such transferee. The Depositor shall
provide to any Holder of a Private Certificate and any prospective transferee
designated by any such Holder, information regarding the related Certificates
and the Mortgage Loans and such other information as shall be necessary to
satisfy the condition to eligibility set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) for transfer
of any such Certificate without registration thereof under the Securities Act
pursuant to the registration exemption provided by Rule 144A. The Trustee and
the Master Servicer shall cooperate with the Depositor in providing the Rule
144A information referenced in the preceding sentence, including providing to
the Depositor such information regarding the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans
and other matters regarding the Trust Fund as the Depositor shall reasonably
request to meet its obligation under the preceding sentence. Each Holder of a
Private Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby
agree to, indemnify the Trustee and the Depositor, the Sellers, the NIM Insurer
and the Master Servicer against any liability that may result if the transfer is
not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.
No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate shall be made unless the
Trustee shall have received either (i) a representation from the transferee of
such Certificate acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the
Trustee (in the event such Certificate is a Private Certificate, such
requirement is satisfied only by the Trustee's receipt of a representation
letter from the transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit K or Exhibit L,
or in the event such Certificate is a Residual Certificate, such requirement is
satisfied only by the Trustee's receipt of a representation letter from the
transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit I), to the effect that (x) such
transferee is not an employee benefit plan or arrangement subject to Section 406
of ERISA or a plan or arrangement subject to Section 4975 of the Code, nor a
person acting on behalf of any such plan or arrangement or using the assets of
any such plan or arrangement to effect such transfer or (y) in the case of a
Certificate that is an ERISA-Restricted Certificate
88
and that has been the subject of an ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, a
representation that the transferee is an insurance company which is purchasing
such Certificates with funds contained in an "insurance company general account"
(as such term is defined in Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class
Exemption 95-60 ("PTCE 95-60")) and that the purchase and holding of such
Certificates satisfy the requirements for exemptive relief under Sections I and
III of PTCE 95-60 or (ii) in the case of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate
presented for registration in the name of an employee benefit plan or
arrangement subject to ERISA or a plan or arrangement subject to Section 4975 of
the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent enactments), or a trustee
or any other person acting on behalf of any such plan or arrangement, or using
such plan's or arrangement's assets, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the
Trustee, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the
Master Servicer or the Trust Fund, addressed to the Trustee and the Master
Servicer to the effect that the purchase and holding of such ERISA-Restricted
Certificate will not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section
406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Trustee or the
Master Servicer to any obligation in addition to those expressly undertaken in
this Agreement or to any liability (such Opinion of Counsel, a "Benefit Plan
Opinion"). For purposes of the preceding sentence, with respect to an
ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is not a Residual Certificate, in the event
the representation letter or Benefit Plan Opinion referred to in the preceding
sentence is not so furnished, one of the representations in clause (i), as
appropriate, shall be deemed to have been made to the Trustee by the
transferee's (including an initial acquiror's) acceptance of the
ERISA-Restricted Certificates. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in
this Agreement, any purported transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate to or
on behalf of an employee benefit plan or arrangement subject to ERISA or to
Section 4975 of the Code without the delivery to the Trustee of a Benefit Plan
Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee as described above shall be void
and of no effect.
To the extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not limited
to, ERISA), the Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any
registration of transfer of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is in fact not
permitted by this Section 5.02(b) or for making any payments due on such
Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to
such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was
registered by the Trustee in accordance with the foregoing requirements.
(c) Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such
Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions, and
the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:
(i) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly
notify the Trustee of any change or impending change in its status as a
Permitted Transferee.
(ii) Except in connection with (i) the registration of the Tax Matters
Person Certificate in the name of the Trustee or (ii) any registration in
the name of, or transfer of a Residual Certificate to, an affiliate of the
Depositor (either directly or through a nominee) in connection with the
initial issuance of the Certificates, no Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate may be registered on the Closing Date or thereafter
transferred, and the Trustee shall not register the Transfer of any
Residual Certificate unless
89
the Trustee shall have been furnished with an affidavit (a "Transfer
Affidavit") of the initial owner or the proposed transferee in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit I.
(iii) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate shall agree (A) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit from
any other Person to whom such Person attempts to Transfer its Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate, (B) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit from
any Person for whom such Person is acting as nominee, trustee or agent in
connection with any Transfer of a Residual Certificate and (C) not to
Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate or to cause the
Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any other
Person if it has actual knowledge that such Person is not a Permitted
Transferee.
(iv) Any attempted or purported Transfer of any Ownership Interest in
a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section
5.02(c) shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the
purported Transferee. If any purported transferee shall become a Holder of
a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section
5.02(c), then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored to
all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of
Transfer of such Residual Certificate. The Trustee shall be under no
liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of a Residual
Certificate that is in fact not permitted by Section 5.02(b) and this
Section 5.02(c) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the
Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under
the provisions of this Agreement so long as the Transfer was registered
after receipt of the related Transfer Affidavit, Transferor Certificate and
either the Rule 144A Letter or the Investment Letter, if required. The
Trustee shall be entitled but not obligated to recover from any Holder of a
Residual Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted Transferee at the
time it became a Holder or, at such subsequent time as it became other than
a Permitted Transferee, all payments made on such Residual Certificate at
and after either such time. Any such payments so recovered by the Trustee
shall be paid and delivered by the Trustee to the last preceding Permitted
Transferee of such Certificate.
(v) The Depositor shall use its best efforts to make available, upon
receipt of written request from the Trustee, all information necessary to
compute any tax imposed under Section 860E(e) of the Code as a result of a
Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any Holder
who is not a Permitted Transferee.
The restrictions on Transfers of a Residual Certificate set forth in this
Section 5.02(c) shall cease to apply (and the applicable portions of the legend
on a Residual Certificate may be deleted) with respect to Transfers occurring
after delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel
shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Master Servicer or
any Seller, to the effect that the elimination of such restrictions will not
cause any REMIC hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the
Certificates are outstanding or result in the imposition of any tax on the Trust
Fund, a Certificateholder or another Person. Each Person holding or acquiring
any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate hereby consents to any
amendment of this Agreement which, based on an Opinion of Counsel furnished to
the Trustee, is reasonably necessary (a) to ensure that the record ownership of,
or any beneficial interest in, a Residual Certificate is not transferred,
directly or indirectly, to
90
a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee and (b) to provide for a means to
compel the Transfer of a Residual Certificate which is held by a Person that is
not a Permitted Transferee to a Holder that is a Permitted Transferee.
(d) The preparation and delivery of all certificates and opinions referred
to above in this Section 5.02 in connection with transfer shall be at the
expense of the parties to such transfers.
(e) Except as provided below, the Book-Entry Certificates shall at all
times remain registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and at all
times: (i) registration of the Certificates may not be transferred by the
Trustee except to another Depository; (ii) the Depository shall maintain
book-entry records with respect to the Certificate Owners and with respect to
ownership and transfers of such Book-Entry Certificates; (iii) ownership and
transfers of registration of the Book-Entry Certificates on the books of the
Depository shall be governed by applicable rules established by the Depository;
(iv) the Depository may collect its usual and customary fees, charges and
expenses from its Depository Participants; (v) the Trustee shall deal with the
Depository, Depository Participants and indirect participating firms as
representatives of the Certificate Owners of the Book-Entry Certificates for
purposes of exercising the rights of holders under this Agreement, and requests
and directions for and votes of such representatives shall not be deemed to be
inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners; and
(vi) the Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon
information furnished by the Depository with respect to its Depository
Participants and furnished by the Depository Participants with respect to
indirect participating firms and persons shown on the books of such indirect
participating firms as direct or indirect Certificate Owners.
All transfers by Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates shall be
made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository Participant
or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owner. Each Depository
Participant shall only transfer Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners it
represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with
the Depository's normal procedures.
If (x) (i) the Depository or the Depositor advises the Trustee in writing
that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its
responsibilities as Depository, and (ii) the Trustee or the Depositor is unable
to locate a qualified successor or (y) after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, Certificate Owners representing at least 51% of the Certificate Balance
of the Book-Entry Certificates together advise the Trustee and the Depository
through the Depository Participants in writing that the continuation of a
book-entry system through the Depository is no longer in the best interests of
the Certificate Owners, the Trustee shall notify all Certificate Owners, through
the Depository, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of
definitive, fully-registered Certificates (the "Definitive Certificates") to
Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Trustee of the
related Class of Certificates by the Depository, accompanied by the instructions
from the Depository for registration, the Trustee shall issue the Definitive
Certificates. Neither the Master Servicer, the Depositor nor the Trustee shall
be liable for any delay in delivery of such instruction and each may
conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions.
The Master Servicer shall provide the Trustee with an adequate inventory of
certificates to facilitate the issuance and transfer of Definitive Certificates.
Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates all references in this Agreement to
obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the Depository
91
shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Trustee, to the extent
applicable with respect to such Definitive Certificates and the Trustee shall
recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders
hereunder; provided that the Trustee shall not by virtue of its assumption of
such obligations become liable to any party for any act or failure to act of the
Depository.
SECTION 5.03. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.
If (a) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee, or the
Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft
of any Certificate and (b) there is delivered to the Master Servicer and the
Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of
them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee that such
Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Trustee shall
execute, countersign and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like
Class, tenor and Percentage Interest. In connection with the issuance of any new
Certificate under this Section 5.03, the Trustee may require the payment of a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed
in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of
the Trustee) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to
this Section 5.03 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of
ownership, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed
Certificate shall be found at any time.
SECTION 5.04. Persons Deemed Owners.
The Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer, the Trustee and any agent of the
Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose
name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the
purpose of receiving distributions as provided in this Agreement and for all
other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer, the
Trustee nor any agent of the Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer or the Trustee
shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
SECTION 5.05. Access to List of Certificateholders' Names and Addresses.
If three or more Certificateholders and/or Certificate Owners (a) request
such information in writing from the Trustee, (b) state that such
Certificateholders and/or Certificate Owners desire to communicate with other
Certificateholders and/or Certificate Owners with respect to their rights under
this Agreement or under the Certificates, and (c) provide a copy of the
communication which such Certificateholders and/or Certificate Owners propose to
transmit, or if the Depositor or Master Servicer shall request such information
in writing from the Trustee, then the Trustee shall, within ten Business Days
after the receipt of such request, (x) provide the Depositor, the Master
Servicer or such Certificateholders and/or Certificate Owners at such
recipients' expense the most recent list of the Certificateholders of such Trust
Fund held by the Trustee, if any, and (y) assist the Depositor, the Master
Servicer or such Certificateholders and/or Certificate Owners at such
recipients' expense with obtaining from the Depository a list of the related
Depository Participants acting on behalf of Certificate Owners of Book Entry
Certificates. The Depositor and every Certificateholder and Certificate Owner,
by receiving and holding a Certificate or beneficial interest therein, agree
that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of
any such information as to the list of the
92
Certificateholders and/or Depository Participants hereunder, regardless of the
source from which such information was derived.
SECTION 5.06. Maintenance of Office or Agency.
The Trustee will maintain or cause to be maintained at its expense an
office or offices or agency or agencies in New York City where Certificates may
be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The Trustee initially
designates its Corporate Trust Office for such purposes. The Trustee will give
prompt written notice to the Certificateholders of any change in such location
of any such office or agency.

ARTICLE VI
THE DEPOSITOR AND THE MASTER SERVICER
SECTION 6.01. Respective Liabilities of the Depositor and the Master
Servicer.
The Depositor and the Master Servicer shall each be liable in accordance
with this Agreement only to the extent of the obligations specifically and
respectively imposed upon and undertaken by them in this Agreement.
SECTION 6.02. Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor or the Master
Servicer.
The Depositor will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises
as a corporation under the laws of the United States or under the laws of one of
the states thereof and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business
as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or
shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement,
or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its duties under this Agreement. The
Master Servicer will keep in effect its existence, rights and franchises as a
limited partnership under the laws of the United States or under the laws of one
of the states thereof and will obtain and preserve its qualification or
registration to do business as a foreign partnership in each jurisdiction in
which such qualification or registration is or shall be necessary to protect the
validity and enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Mortgage Loans and
to perform its duties under this Agreement.
Any Person into which the Depositor or the Master Servicer may be merged or
consolidated, or any Person 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 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 in this Agreement 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, FNMA or FHLMC.
As a condition to the effectiveness of any merger or consolidation, at
least 15 calendar days prior to the effective date of any merger or
consolidation of the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall provide (x)
written notice to the Depositor of any successor pursuant to this Section and
(y) in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to
comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to
a replacement Master Servicer.
SECTION 6.03. Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the Sellers, the
Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer and Others.
None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer or any Seller
or any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer or any Seller shall be under any liability to
the Certificateholders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of
any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment;
provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, any Seller or any such Person against any breach of
representations or warranties made
94
by it in this Agreement or protect the Depositor, the Master Servicer, any
Seller or any such Person from any liability which would otherwise be imposed by
reasons 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, the NIM Insurer, each Seller and
any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the NIM Insurer or each Seller may rely in good faith on any document of any
kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any
matters arising under this Agreement. The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
NIM Insurer, each Seller and any director, officer, employee or agent of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer or any Seller shall be
indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless against any loss, liability or
expense incurred in connection with any audit, controversy or judicial
proceeding relating to a governmental taxing authority or any legal action
relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability
or expense 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. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer or any
Seller shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal
action that is not incidental to its respective duties hereunder and which in
its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that
any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer or any Seller may in
its discretion undertake any such action that it may deem necessary or desirable
in respect of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and
interests of the Trustee and the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event,
the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting
therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Fund, and the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer and each Seller shall be
entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of the Certificate Account.
SECTION 6.04. Limitation on Resignation of Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby
imposed on it except (a) upon appointment of a successor servicer that is
reasonably acceptable to the Trustee and the NIM Insurer and the written
confirmation from each Rating Agency (which confirmation shall be furnished to
the Depositor, the Trustee and the NIM Insurer) that such resignation will not
cause such Rating Agency to reduce the then-current rating of the Certificates
or (b) upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible
under applicable law. Any such determination under clause (b) permitting the
resignation of the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel
to such effect delivered to the Trustee. No resignation of the Master Servicer
shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor master servicer shall
have assumed the Master Servicer's responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other
than those liabilities arising prior to the appointment of such successor) and
obligations under this Agreement and the Depositor shall have received the
information described in the following sentence. As a condition to the
effectiveness of any such resignation, at least 15 calendar days prior to the
effective date of such resignation, the Master Servicer shall provide (x)
written notice to the Depositor of any successor pursuant to this Section and
(y) in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to
comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to
the resignation of the Master Servicer.
95
ARTICLE VII
DEFAULT
SECTION 7.01. Events of Default.
"Event of Default," wherever used in this Agreement, means any one of the
following events:
(i) any failure by the Master Servicer to deposit in the Certificate
Account or remit to the Trustee any payment required to be made under the
terms of this Agreement, which failure shall continue unremedied for five
days after the date upon which written notice of such failure shall have
been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee, the NIM Insurer or the
Depositor or to the Master Servicer, the NIM Insurer and the Trustee by the
Holders of Certificates having not less than 25% of the Voting Rights
evidenced by the Certificates in the applicable Certificate Group; or
(ii) any failure by the Master Servicer to observe or perform in any
material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of
the Master Servicer contained in this Agreement (except with respect to a
failure related to a Limited Exchange Act Reporting Obligation), which
failure materially affects the rights of Certificateholders, that failure
continues unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date on which
written notice of such failure shall have been given to the Master Servicer
by the Trustee, the NIM Insurer or the Depositor, or to the Master Servicer
and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25%
of the Voting Rights evidenced by the Certificates in the applicable
Certificate Group; provided, however, that the sixty day cure period shall
not apply to the initial delivery of the Mortgage File for Delay Delivery
Mortgage Loans nor the failure to substitute or repurchase in lieu of
delivery; or
(iii) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority
having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a receiver or
liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets
and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or
liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Master
Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged
or unstayed for a period of 60 consecutive days; or
(iv) the Master Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a
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 all or substantially all of the property of the Master
Servicer; or
(v) the Master Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay
its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage
of, or commence a voluntary case under, any applicable insolvency or
reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its
creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or
96
(vi) the Master Servicer shall fail to reimburse in full the Trustee
within five days of the Master Servicer Advance Date for any Advance made
by the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01(b) together with accrued and unpaid
interest.
If an Event of Default described in clauses (i) to (vi) of this Section
shall occur, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Event of
Default shall not have been remedied, the Trustee may, or, if an Event of
Default described in clauses (i) to (v) of this Section shall occur, then, and
in each and every such case, so long as such Event of Default shall not have
been remedied, at the direction of either the NIM Insurer or the Holders of
Certificates evidencing not less than 66-2/3% of the Voting Rights, evidenced by
the Certificates; the Trustee shall by notice in writing to the Master Servicer
(with a copy to each Rating Agency and the Depositor), terminate all of the
rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to
the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof, other than its rights as a
Certificateholder hereunder. In addition, if during the period that the
Depositor is required to file Exchange Act Reports with respect to the Trust
Fund, the Master Servicer shall fail to observe or perform any of the
obligations that constitute a Limited Exchange Act Reporting Obligation or the
obligations set forth in Section 3.16(a) or Section 11.07(a)(1) and (2), and
such failure continues for the lesser of 10 calendar days or such period in
which the applicable Exchange Act Report can be filed timely (without taking
into account any extensions), so long as such failure shall not have been
remedied, the Trustee shall, but only at the direction of the Depositor,
terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof, other than
its rights as a Certificateholder hereunder. The Depositor shall not be entitled
to terminate the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer if a failure of
the Master Servicer to identify a Subcontractor "participating in the servicing
function" within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB was attributable
solely to the role or functions of such Subcontractor with respect to mortgage
loans other than the Mortgage Loans.
On and after the receipt by the Master Servicer of such written notice, all
authority and power of the Master Servicer hereunder, whether with respect to
the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee. The
Trustee shall thereupon make any Advance which the Master Servicer failed to
make subject to Section 4.01 hereof whether or not the obligations of the Master
Servicer have been terminated pursuant to this Section. 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 or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and
related documents, or otherwise. Unless expressly provided in such written
notice, no such termination shall affect any obligation of the Master Servicer
to pay amounts owed pursuant to Article VIII. The Master Servicer agrees to
cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer's
responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the
transfer to the Trustee of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited
to the Certificate Account, or thereafter be received with respect to the
Mortgage Loans.
Notwithstanding any termination of the activities of the Master Servicer
hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive, out of any late
collection of a Scheduled Payment on a Mortgage Loan which was due prior to the
notice terminating such Master Servicer's rights and obligations as Master
Servicer hereunder and received after such notice, that portion thereof to
97
which such Master Servicer would have been entitled pursuant to Sections
3.08(a)(i) through (viii), and any other amounts payable to such Master Servicer
hereunder the entitlement to which arose prior to the termination of its
activities under this Agreement.
If the Master Servicer is terminated, the Trustee shall provide
the Depositor in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order
to comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with
respect to a successor master servicer in the event the Trustee should succeed
to the duties of the Master Servicer as set forth herein.
SECTION 7.02. Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of termination
pursuant to Section 7.01, the Trustee shall, subject to and to the extent
provided in Section 3.04, be the successor to the Master Servicer in its
capacity as master servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth
or provided for in this Agreement and shall be subject to all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Master
Servicer by the terms and provisions of this Agreement and applicable law
including the obligation to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.01. As
compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to all funds relating to
the Mortgage Loans that the Master Servicer would have been entitled to charge
to the Certificate Account or Distribution Account if the Master Servicer had
continued to act hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee has
become the successor to the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 7.01, the
Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is prohibited
by applicable law from making Advances pursuant to Section 4.01 or if it is
otherwise unable to so act, (i) appoint any established mortgage loan servicing
institution reasonably acceptable to the NIM Insurer (as evidenced by the prior
written consent of the NIM Insurer), or (ii) if it is unable for 60 days to
appoint a successor servicer reasonably acceptable to the NIM Insurer, petition
a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint any established mortgage loan
servicing institution, the appointment of which does not adversely affect the
then-current rating of the Certificates and the NIM Insurer guaranteed notes
(without giving any effect to any policy or guaranty provided by the NIM
Insurer) by each Rating Agency as the successor to the Master Servicer hereunder
in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or
liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder. Any successor to the Master
Servicer shall be an institution which is a FNMA and FHLMC approved
seller/servicer in good standing, which has a net worth of at least $15,000,000,
and which is willing to service the Mortgage Loans and (i) executes and delivers
to the Depositor and the Trustee an agreement accepting such delegation and
assignment, which contains an assumption by such Person of the rights, powers,
duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Master Servicer
(other than liabilities of the Master Servicer under Section 6.03 incurred prior
to termination of the Master Servicer under Section 7.01), with like effect as
if originally named as a party to this Agreement; and provided further that each
Rating Agency acknowledges that its rating of the Certificates in effect
immediately prior to such assignment and delegation will not be qualified or
reduced as a result of such assignment and delegation and (ii) provides to the
Depositor in writing, fifteen (15) days prior to the effective date of such
appointment and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor,
all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to comply with
its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to a
replacement master servicer. The Trustee shall provide written notice to the
Depositor of such successor pursuant to this Section. Pending appointment of a
successor to the Master Servicer hereunder, the Trustee,
98
unless the Trustee is prohibited by law from so acting, shall, subject to
Section 3.04, act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with
such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the
compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such
successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in
excess of the Master Servicing Fee permitted to be paid to the Master Servicer
hereunder. The Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent
with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.
Neither the Trustee nor any other successor master servicer shall be deemed to
be in default hereunder by reason of any failure to make, or any delay in
making, any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof or any failure to
perform, or any delay in performing, any duties or responsibilities hereunder,
in either case caused by the failure of the Master Servicer to deliver or
provide, or any delay in delivering or providing, any cash, information,
documents or records to it.
Any successor to the Master Servicer as master servicer shall give notice
to the NIM Insurer and the Mortgagors of such change of servicer and shall,
during the term of its service as master servicer maintain in force the policy
or policies that the Master Servicer is required to maintain pursuant to Section
3.09.
In connection with the termination or resignation of the Master Servicer
hereunder, either (i) the successor Master Servicer, including the Trustee if
the Trustee is acting as successor Master Servicer, shall represent and warrant
that it is a member of MERS in good standing and shall agree to comply in all
material respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the
servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with MERS, or (ii) the
predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Master Servicer
either (x) in causing MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of Mortgage in
recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the Trustee and to execute
and deliver such other notices, documents and other instruments as may be
necessary or desirable to effect a transfer of such Mortgage Loan or servicing
of such Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System to the successor Master Servicer or
(y) in causing MERS to designate on the MERS(R) System the successor Master
Servicer as the servicer of such Mortgage Loan. The predecessor Master Servicer
shall file or cause to be filed any such assignment in the appropriate recording
office. The successor Master Servicer shall cause such assignment to be
delivered to the Trustee promptly upon receipt of the original with evidence of
recording thereon or a copy certified by the public recording office in which
such assignment was recorded.
SECTION 7.03. Notification to Certificateholders.
(a) Upon any termination of or appointment of a successor to the Master
Servicer, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to
Certificateholders and to each Rating Agency.
(b) Within 60 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the
Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Certificateholders notice of each such
Event of Default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such Event of Default
shall have been cured or waived.
99
ARTICLE VIII
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE
SECTION 8.01. Duties of Trustee.
The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the
curing of all Events of Default that may have occurred, shall undertake to
perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Agreement. In case an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured, the
Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a
prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
such person's own affairs.
The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements,
opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the
Trustee that are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision
of this Agreement shall examine them to determine whether they are in the form
required by this Agreement; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be
responsible for the accuracy or content of any such resolution, certificate,
statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument.
No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee
from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or
its own willful misconduct; provided, however, that:
(i) unless an Event of Default known to the Trustee shall have
occurred and be continuing, the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall
be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and
obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied
covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the
Trustee and the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the
statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any
certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the
requirements of this Agreement which it believed in good faith to be
genuine and to have been duly executed by the proper authorities respecting
any matters arising hereunder;
(ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for an error of judgment made in
good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee,
unless it shall be finally proven that the Trustee was negligent in
ascertaining the pertinent facts;
(iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action
taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance
with the direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25%
of the Voting Rights of Certificates relating to the time, method and place
of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or
exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee under this
Agreement; and
(iv) without in any way limiting the provisions of this Section 8.01
or Section 8.02, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively on the
information delivered to it by the Master Servicer in a Trustee Advance
Notice in determining whether it is required
100
to make an Advance under Section 4.01(b), shall have no responsibility to
ascertain or confirm any information contained in any Trustee Advance
Notice, and shall have no obligation to make any Advance under Section
4.01(b) in the absence of a Trustee Advance Notice or actual knowledge of a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee that (A) an Advance was not made by the
Master Servicer and (B) such Advance is not a Nonrecoverable Advance.
SECTION 8.02. Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
(i) the Trustee may request and rely upon and shall be protected in
acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officers'
Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal,
bond or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed or presented by the proper party or parties and the Trustee
shall have no responsibility to ascertain or confirm the genuineness of any
signature of any such party or parties;
(ii) the Trustee may consult with counsel, financial advisers or
accountants and the advice of any such counsel, financial advisers or
accountants and any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete
authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or
omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such Opinion
of Counsel;
(iii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered
or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or
within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this
Agreement;
(iv) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the
facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval,
bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing so to do by
the NIM Insurer or Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of
the Voting Rights allocated to each Class of Certificates;
(v) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents,
accountants or attorneys;
(vi) the Trustee shall not be required to risk or expend its own funds
or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its
duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder if it
shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or
adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not assured to it;
(vii) the Trustee shall not be liable for any loss on any investment
of funds pursuant to this Agreement (other than as issuer of the investment
security);
101
(viii) the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of an Event
of Default until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received
written notice thereof; and
(ix) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
trusts, rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to institute,
conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the
request, order or direction of the NIM Insurer or any of the
Certificateholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless
the NIM Insurer or such Certificateholders shall have offered to the
Trustee reasonable security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee
against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein
or thereby.
SECTION 8.03. Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.
The recitals contained in this Agreement and in the Certificates shall be
taken as the statements of the Depositor or a Seller, as the case may be, and
the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes
no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the
Certificates or of any Mortgage Loan or related document or of MERS or the
MERS(R) System other than with respect to the Trustee's execution and
counter-signature of the Certificates. The Trustee shall not be accountable for
the use or application by the Depositor or the Master Servicer of any funds paid
to the Depositor or the Master Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or
deposited in or withdrawn from the Certificate Account by the Depositor or the
Master Servicer.
SECTION 8.04. Trustee May Own Certificates.
The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or
pledgee of Certificates with the same rights as it would have if it were not the
Trustee.
SECTION 8.05. Trustee's Fees and Expenses.
The Trustee, as compensation for its activities hereunder, shall be entitled
to withdraw from the Distribution Account on each Distribution Date an amount
equal to the Trustee Fee for such Distribution Date. The Trustee and any
director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee shall be indemnified by
the Master Servicer and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense
(including reasonable attorney's fees) (i) incurred in connection with any
claim or legal action relating to (a) this Agreement, (b) the Certificates or
(c) in connection with the performance of any of the Trustee's duties
hereunder, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of
willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of any of the
Trustee's duties hereunder or incurred by reason of any action of the Trustee
taken at the direction of the Certificateholders and (ii) resulting from any
error in any tax or information return prepared by the Master Servicer. Such
indemnity shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation
or removal of the Trustee hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the
Master Servicer covenants and agrees, except as otherwise agreed upon in
writing by the Depositor and the Trustee, and except for any such expense,
disbursement or advance as may arise from the Trustee's negligence, bad faith
or willful misconduct, to pay or reimburse the Trustee, for all reasonable
expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in
accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement with respect to: (A)
the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel
not associated with
102
the closing of the issuance of the Certificates, (B) the reasonable
compensation, expenses and disbursements of any accountant, engineer or
appraiser that is not regularly employed by the Trustee, to the extent that the
Trustee must engage such persons to perform acts or services hereunder and (C)
printing and engraving expenses in connection with preparing any Definitive
Certificates. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Trustee shall
not be entitled to payment or reimbursement for any routine ongoing expenses
incurred by the Trustee in the ordinary course of its duties as Trustee,
Registrar, Tax Matters Person or Paying Agent hereunder or for any other
expenses.
SECTION 8.06. Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.
The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation or association
organized and doing business under the laws of a state or the United States of
America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a
combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, subject to supervision or
examination by federal or state authority and with a credit rating which would
not cause either of the Rating Agencies to reduce or withdraw their respective
then current ratings of the Certificates (or having provided such security from
time to time as is sufficient to avoid such reduction) as evidenced in writing
by each Rating Agency. If such corporation or association publishes reports of
condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the
aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this
Section 8.06 the combined capital and surplus of such corporation or association
shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most
recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall
cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.06, the
Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in
Section 8.07. The entity serving as Trustee may have normal banking and trust
relationships with the Depositor and its affiliates or the Master Servicer and
its affiliates; provided, however, that such entity cannot be an affiliate of
the Master Servicer other than the Trustee in its role as successor to the

SECTION 8.07. Resignation and Removal of Trustee.
The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby
created by giving written notice of resignation to the Depositor, the Master
Servicer and each Rating Agency not less than 60 days before the date specified
in such notice when, subject to Section 8.08, such resignation is to take
effect, and acceptance by a successor trustee in accordance with Section 8.08
meeting the qualifications set forth in Section 8.06. If no successor trustee
meeting such qualifications shall have been so appointed and have accepted
appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice or resignation, the
resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor trustee.
As a condition to the effectiveness of any such resignation, at least 15
calendar days prior to the effective date of such resignation, the Trustee shall
provide (x) written notice to the Depositor of any successor pursuant to this
Section and (y) in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to
comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to
the resignation of the Trustee.
103
If at any time (i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof and shall fail to resign after
written request thereto by the NIM Insurer or the Depositor, (ii) the Trustee
shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent,
or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any
public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or
affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, (iii)(A)
a tax is imposed with respect to the Trust Fund by any state in which the
Trustee or the Trust Fund is located, (B) the imposition of such tax would be
avoided by the appointment of a different trustee and (C) the Trustee fails to
indemnify the Trust Fund against such tax, or (iv) during the period that the
Depositor is required to file Exchange Act Reports with respect to the Trust
Fund, the Trustee fails to comply with its obligations under the last sentence
of Section 7.01, in the preceding paragraph, Section 8.09 or Article XI and such
failure is not remedied within the lesser of 10 calendar days or such period in
which the applicable Exchange Act Report can be filed timely (without taking
into account any extensions), then, in the case of clauses (i) through (iii),
the Depositor, the NIM Insurer or the Master Servicer, and in the case of clause
(iv), the Depositor, may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee,
reasonably acceptable to the NIM Insurer, by written instrument, in triplicate,
one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee, one copy of
which shall be delivered to the Master Servicer, one copy of which shall be
delivered to the NIM Insurer and one copy of which shall be delivered to the
successor trustee.

successor Trustee to the Master Servicer, one complete set to the Trustee so
removed, one complete set to the NIM Insurer and one complete set to the
successor so appointed. Notice of any removal of the Trustee shall be given to
each Rating Agency by the successor trustee.
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor
trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall become
effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in
Section 8.08.
SECTION 8.08. Successor Trustee.
Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor and to its predecessor trustee and the
Master Servicer an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder and thereupon
the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and
such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall
become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its
predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if originally named as trustee in
this Agreement. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and the predecessor trustee
shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may
reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in
the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties, and obligations.
No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section
8.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 hereof, is reasonably acceptable
to the NIM Insurer, its appointment shall not
104
adversely affect the then -current ratings of the Certificates and has provided
to the Depositor in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to
comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to
a replacement Trustee.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this
Section 8.08, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of such trustee
hereunder to the NIM Insurer and all Holders of Certificates. If the Depositor
fails to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the
successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at
the expense of the Depositor.
SECTION 8.09. Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.
Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any
corporation succeeding to the business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of
the Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be eligible under
the provisions of Section 8.06 without the execution or filing of any paper or
further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything in this Agreement
to the contrary notwithstanding.
As a condition to the effectiveness of any merger or
consolidation, at least 15 calendar days prior to the effective date of any
merger or consolidation of the Trustee, the Trustee shall provide (x) written
notice to the Depositor of any successor pursuant to this Section and (y) in
writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor,
all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to comply with
its reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to a
replacement Trustee.
SECTION 8.10. Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for
the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any
part of the Trust Fund or property securing any Mortgage Note may at the time be
located, the 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 and reasonably acceptable to the NIM Insurer to act as
co-trustee or co-trustees jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or
separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Fund, and to vest in such
Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, such title to the Trust Fund or any part thereof, whichever
is applicable, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such
powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Master Servicer and the
Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Master Servicer shall not
have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a
request to do so, or in the case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No
co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of
eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.06 and no notice to
Certificateholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee
shall be required under Section 8.08.
105
Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by
law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:
(i) To the extent necessary to effectuate the purposes of this Section
8.10, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon
the Trustee, except for the obligation of the Trustee under this Agreement
to advance funds on behalf of the Master Servicer, shall be conferred or
imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate
trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate
trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the
Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of
any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed
(whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the 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 applicable Trust Fund or any portion
thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly
by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the
Trustee;
(ii) No trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable by reason of
any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder and such appointment
shall not, and shall not be deemed to, constitute any such separate trustee
or co-trustee as agent of the Trustee;
(iii) The Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove
any separate trustee or co-trustee; and
(iv) The Master Servicer, and not the Trustee, shall be liable for the
payment of reasonable compensation, reimbursement and indemnification to
any such separate trustee or co-trustee.
Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed
to have been given to each of the separate trustees and co-trustees, when and as
effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any
separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions
of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance
of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified
in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately,
as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement,
specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct
of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every
such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy thereof given to the
Master Servicer and the Depositor.
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute the Trustee
its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to the extent not
prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on
its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die,
become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates,
properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the
Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or
successor trustee.
SECTION 8.11. Tax Matters.
106
It is intended that the assets with respect to which any REMIC
election is to be made, as set forth in the Preliminary Statement, shall
constitute, and that the conduct of matters relating to such assets shall be
such as to qualify such assets as, a "real estate mortgage investment conduit"
as defined in and in accordance with the REMIC Provisions. In furtherance of
such intention, the Trustee covenants and agrees that it shall act as agent (and
the Trustee is hereby appointed to act as agent) on behalf of any such REMIC and
that in such capacity it shall: (a) prepare and file, or cause to be prepared
and filed, in a timely manner, a U.S. Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit
Income Tax Return (Form 1066 or any successor form adopted by the Internal
Revenue Service) and prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed with the
Internal Revenue Service and applicable state or local tax authorities income
tax or information returns for each taxable year with respect to any such REMIC,
containing such information and at the times and in the manner as may be
required by the Code or state or local tax laws, regulations, or rules, and
furnish or cause to be furnished to Certificateholders the schedules, statements
or information at such times and in such manner as may be required thereby; (b)
within thirty days of the Closing Date, furnish or cause to be furnished to the
Internal Revenue Service, on Forms 8811 or as otherwise may be required by the
Code, the name, title, address, and telephone number of the person that the
holders of the Certificates may contact for tax information relating thereto,
together with such additional information as may be required by such Form, and
update such information at the time or times in the manner required by the Code;
(c) make or cause to be made elections that such assets be treated as a REMIC on
the federal tax return for its first taxable year (and, if necessary, under
applicable state law); (d) prepare and forward, or cause to be prepared and
forwarded, to the Certificateholders and to the Internal Revenue Service and, if
necessary, state tax authorities, all information returns and reports as and
when required to be provided to them in accordance with the REMIC Provisions,
including without limitation, the calculation of any original issue discount
using the Prepayment Assumption; (e) provide information necessary for the
computation of tax imposed on the transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Person
that is not a Permitted Transferee, or an agent (including a broker, nominee or
other middleman) of a Non-Permitted Transferee, or a pass-through entity in
which a Non-Permitted Transferee is the record holder of an interest (the
reasonable cost of computing and furnishing such information may be charged to
the Person liable for such tax); (f) to the extent that they are under its
control conduct matters relating to such assets at all times that any
Certificates are outstanding so as to maintain the status as a REMIC under the
REMIC Provisions; (g) not knowingly or intentionally take any action or omit to
take any action that would cause the termination of the tax status of any REMIC;
(h) pay, from the sources specified in the last paragraph of this Section 8.11,
the amount of any federal or state tax, including prohibited transaction taxes
as described below, imposed on any such REMIC prior to its termination when and
as the same shall be due and payable (but such obligation shall not prevent the
Trustee or any other appropriate Person from contesting any such tax in
appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the Trustee from withholding
payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such
proceedings); (i) ensure that federal, state or local income tax or information
returns shall be signed by the Trustee or such other person as may be required
to sign such returns by the Code or state or local laws, regulations or rules;
(j) maintain records relating to any such REMIC, including but not limited to
the income, expenses, assets and liabilities thereof and the fair market value
and adjusted basis of the assets determined at such intervals as may be required
by the Code, as may be necessary to prepare the foregoing returns, schedules,
statements or information; and (k) as and when necessary and appropriate,
represent any such REMIC in any administrative or judicial proceedings relating
to an
107
examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority, request an
administrative adjustment as to any taxable year of any such REMIC, enter into
settlement agreements with any governmental taxing agency, extend any statute of
limitations relating to any tax item of any such REMIC, and otherwise act on
behalf of any such REMIC in relation to any tax matter or controversy involving
it.
In order to enable the Trustee to perform its duties as set forth in
this Agreement, the Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the
Trustee within ten (10) days after the Closing Date all information or data that
the Trustee requests in writing and determines to be relevant for tax purposes
to the valuations and offering prices of the Certificates, including, without
limitation, the price, yield, prepayment assumption and projected cash flows of
the Certificates and the Mortgage Loans. Thereafter, the Depositor shall provide
to the Trustee promptly upon written request therefor, any such additional
information or data that the Trustee may, from time to time, reasonably request
in order to enable the Trustee to perform its duties as set forth in this
Agreement. The Depositor hereby indemnifies the Trustee for any losses,
liabilities, damages, claims or expenses of the Trustee arising from any errors
or miscalculations of the Trustee that result from any failure of the Depositor
to provide, or to cause to be provided, accurate information or data to the
Trustee on a timely basis.
In the event that any tax is imposed on "prohibited transactions" of
any REMIC hereunder as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the "net
income from foreclosure property" of such REMIC as defined in Section 860G(c) of
the Code, on any contribution to any REMIC hereunder after the Startup Day
pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed, including,
without limitation, any minimum tax imposed upon any REMIC hereunder pursuant to
Sections 23153 and 24874 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, if not
paid as otherwise provided for herein, such tax shall be paid by (i) the
Trustee, if any such other tax arises out of or results from a breach by the
Trustee of any of its obligations under this Agreement, (ii) the Master
Servicer, in the case of any such minimum tax, or if such tax arises out of or
results from a breach by the Master Servicer or a Seller of any of their
obligations under this Agreement, (iii) any Seller, if any such tax arises out
of or results from that Seller's obligation to repurchase a Mortgage Loan
pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.03 or (iv) in all other cases, or in the event
that the Trustee, the Master Servicer or any Seller fails to honor its
obligations under the preceding clauses (i),(ii) or (iii), any such tax will be
paid with amounts otherwise to be distributed to the Certificateholders, as
provided in Section 3.08(b).
The Trustee shall treat the rights of the Holders of the LIBOR Certificates
to receive payments from the Carryover Shortfall Reserve Fund as rights in a
notional principal contract written by the Holders of the Class C Certificates
in respect of any Net Carryover distributed in favor of the Holders of the LIBOR
Certificates. Thus, with respect to the preceding sentence, the LIBOR
Certificates shall be treated as representing ownership of a REMIC regular
interests coupled with contractual rights.
The Trustee shall treat the Carryover Reserve Fund as an outside reserve
fund within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-2(h) that is owned by the
holders of the Class C Certificates, and that is not an asset of any REMIC
created hereunder. The Trustee shall treat the rights of the holders of the
LIBOR Certificates to receive payments from the Carryover Reserve Fund as rights
in a notional principal contract written by the Holders of the Class C
Certificates in respect of any monies distributed pursuant to Sections
4.02(d) and 4.02(e)(ii) herein, in
108
favor of the Holders of the LIBOR Certificates. Thus, the LIBOR Certificates and
the Class C Certificates shall be treated as representing ownership of not only
a Master REMIC regular interest, but also ownership of an interest in an
interest rate cap contract.
The Trustee shall treat the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund as an outside
reserve fund within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-2(h) that is owned
by UBS Securities LLC and that is not an asset of any REMIC created hereunder.
The Trustee shall treat the rights of the holders of the Group 2 and Group 3
Certificates to receive payments from the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund as
rights in an interest rate corridor contract written by the Corridor Contract
Counterparty. Thus, the Group 2 and Group 3 Certificates shall be treated as
representing ownership of not only a Master REMIC regular interest, but also
ownership of an interest in an interest rate corridor contract. For purposes of
determining the issue price of the Master REMIC regular interests, the Trustee
shall assume that the Group 2 Corridor Contract and the Group 3 Corridor
Contract have values of $69,000 and $168,000, respectively.

be mailed to the affected Certificateholders, the Terminator shall notify the
Depositor and the Trustee of the date the Master Servicer intends to terminate
the Trust Fund and of the applicable repurchase price of the Mortgage Loans and

Notice of any termination of the Trust Fund, specifying the Distribution
Date on which Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates for payment of
the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the Trustee
by letter to Certificateholders mailed not earlier than the 10th day and no
later than the 15th day of the month next preceding the month of such final
distribution. Any such notice shall specify (a) the Distribution Date upon which
final distribution on the Certificates will be made upon presentation and

such final distribution, (c) the location of the office or agency at which such
presentation and surrender must be made, and (d) that the Record Date otherwise
applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, distributions being made
only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office therein

In the event such notice is given, the Master Servicer shall cause all
funds in the Certificate Account to be remitted to the Trustee for deposit in
the Distribution Account on or before the Business Day prior to the applicable
Distribution Date in an amount equal to the final distribution in respect of the
Certificates. Upon such final deposit with respect to the Trust Fund and the
receipt by the Trustee of a Request for Release therefor, the Trustee shall

Regular Certificates, the Certificate Balance thereof plus accrued interest
thereon (or on their Notional Amount, if applicable) in the case of an interest
bearing Certificate and (ii) as to the Residual Certificates, the amount, if
any, which remains on deposit in the Distribution Account (other than the
amounts retained to meet claims) after application pursuant to clause (i) above.
Notwithstanding the reduction of the Class Certificate Balance of any Class of

purpose of receiving distributions and not for any other purpose) until the
termination of the respective obligations and responsibilities of the Depositor,
each Seller, the Master Servicer and the Trustee hereunder in accordance with
Article IX.
In the event that any affected Certificateholders shall not surrender its
Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in the
above mentioned written notice, the Trustee shall give a second written notice
to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for
cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within
six months after the second notice all the applicable Certificates shall not

if the Person requesting the amendment obtains a letter from each Rating Agency
stating that the amendment would not result in the downgrading or withdrawal of
the respective ratings then assigned to the Certificates; it being understood
and agreed that any such letter in and of itself will not represent a
determination as to the materiality of any such amendment and will represent a
determination only as to the credit issues affecting any such rating.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment that significantly changes the
permitted activities of the trust created by this Agreement may be made without
the consent of a Majority in Interest of each Class of Certificates affected by
such amendment. Each party to this Agreement hereby agrees that it will
cooperate with each other party in amending this Agreement pursuant to clause
(v) above. The Trustee, each Seller, the Depositor and the Master Servicer also
may at any time and from time to time amend this Agreement without the consent
of the Certificateholders to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions
to such extent as shall be necessary or helpful to (i) maintain the
qualification of any REMIC as a REMIC under the Code, (ii) avoid or minimize the
risk of the imposition of any tax on any REMIC pursuant to the Code that would
be a claim at any time prior to the final redemption of the Certificates or
(iii) comply with any other requirements of the Code, provided that the Trustee

the party requesting such opinion but in any case shall not be an expense of the
Trustee or the Trust Fund, to the effect that such action is necessary or
helpful to, as applicable, (i) maintain such qualification, (ii) avoid or
minimize the risk of the imposition of such a tax or (iii) comply with any such
requirements of the Code.
This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, each

Majority in Interest of each Class of Certificates in the applicable Certificate
Group affected thereby for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing
in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of
modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates; provided,

required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the Holders of
all such Certificates in the applicable Certificate Group then outstanding.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the Trustee shall
not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall have first
received an Opinion of Counsel, which opinion shall not be an expense of the
Trustee or the Trust Fund, to the effect that such amendment will not cause the
imposition of any tax on any REMIC or the Certificateholders or cause any REMIC
to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding.
Promptly after the execution of any amendment to this Agreement requiring
the consent of Certificateholders, the Trustee shall furnish written
notification of the substance or a copy of such amendment to each
Certificateholder and each Rating Agency.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this
Section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall
be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of
obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution
thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as
the Trustee may prescribe.
Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Trustee to enter into an
amendment without receiving an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion shall not be an
expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund), satisfactory to the Trustee that (i)
such amendment is permitted and is not prohibited by this Agreement and that all
requirements for amending this Agreement have been complied with; and (ii)
either (A) the amendment does not adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of any Certificateholder or (B) the conclusion set forth in the
immediately preceding clause (A) is not required to be reached pursuant to this
Section 10.01.
SECTION 10.02. Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.
This Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices
for real property records in all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions

to be effected by the Master Servicer at its expense, but only upon direction by
the Trustee accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such
recordation materially and beneficially affects the interests of the
Certificateholders.
For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement as in
this Agreement provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed

be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and

SECTION 10.03. Governing Law.
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED
BY THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE
AND TO BE PERFORMED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND
REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THE CERTIFICATEHOLDERS SHALL BE DETERMINED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.
SECTION 10.04. Intention of Parties.
(a) It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of
the (i) of the Mortgage Loans by the Sellers to the Depositor and (ii) Trust
Fund by the Depositor to the Trustee each be, and be construed as, an absolute
sale thereof to the Trustee. It is, further, not the intention of the parties
that such conveyances be deemed a pledge thereof. However, in the event that,
notwithstanding the intent of the parties, such assets are held to be the
property of any Seller or the Depositor, as the case may be, or if for any other
reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in either
such assets, then (i) this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement
(within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York)
with respect to all such assets and security interests and (ii) the conveyances
provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be an assignment and a grant
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (i) by each Seller to the Depositor or
(ii) by the Depositor to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders,
of a security interest in all of the assets that constitute the Trust Fund,
whether now owned or hereafter acquired.
Each Seller and the Depositor for the benefit of the Certificateholders
shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be
necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security
interest in the Trust Fund, such security interest would be deemed to be a
perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be
maintained as such throughout the term of the Agreement. The Depositor shall
arrange for filing any Uniform Commercial Code continuation statements in
connection with any security interest granted or assigned to the Trustee for the
benefit of the Certificateholders.
(b) The Depositor hereby represents that:
(i) This Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest
(as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in the State of New
York (the "NY UCC")) in the Mortgage Notes in favor of the Trustee, which
security interest is prior to all other liens, and is enforceable as such
as against creditors of and purchasers from the Depositor.
(ii) The Mortgage Notes constitutes "instruments" within the meaning
of the NY UCC.
(iii) Immediately prior to the assignment of each Mortgage Loan to the
Trustee, the Depositor owns and has good and marketable title to such
Mortgage Loan free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance of any
Person.
117
(iv) The Depositor has received all consents and approvals required by
the terms of the Mortgage Loans to the sale of the Mortgage Loans hereunder
to the Trustee.
(v) All original executed copies of each Mortgage Note that are
required to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 have been
delivered to the Trustee.
(vi) Other than the security interest granted to the Trustee pursuant
to this Agreement, the Depositor has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a
security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Mortgage Loans. The
Depositor has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any
financing statements against the Depositor that include a description of
collateral covering the Mortgage Loans other than any financing statement
relating to the security interest granted to the Trustee hereunder or that
has been terminated. The Depositor is not aware of any judgment or tax lien
filings against the Depositor.
(c) The Master Servicer shall take such action as is reasonably necessary
to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interest of the Trustee
in the Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that the obligation to deliver the
Mortgage File to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 shall be solely the
Depositor's obligation and the Master Servicer shall not be responsible for the
safekeeping of the Mortgage Files by the Trustee.
(d) It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set
forth in subsection (b) above shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to
the Trustee. Upon discovery by the Depositor or the Trustee of a breach of any
of the foregoing representations and warranties set forth in subsection (b)
above, which breach materially and adversely affects the interest of the
Certificateholders, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written
notice to the others and to each Rating Agency.
SECTION 10.05. Notices.
(a) The Trustee shall use its best efforts to promptly provide notice to
each Rating Agency with respect to each of the following of which it has actual
knowledge:
1. Any material change or amendment to this Agreement;
2. The occurrence of any Event of Default that has not been cured;
3. The resignation or termination of the Master Servicer or the Trustee and

SECTION 10.08. Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders.

take any action or commence any proceeding in any court for a petition or
winding up of the trust created by this Agreement, or otherwise affect the
rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto or any of them.
No Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as provided in

of Default and of the continuance thereof, as provided in this Agreement, and
unless the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting
Rights evidenced by the Certificates shall also have made written request to the
Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee
hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it
may require against the costs, expenses, and liabilities to be incurred therein
or thereby, and the Trustee, for 60 days after its receipt of such notice,
request and offer of indemnity shall have neglected or refused to institute any
such action, suit or proceeding; it being understood and intended, and being
expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other
Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates

the Trustee during the Master Servicer's normal business hours, to examine all
the books of account, records, reports and other

extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be audited by independent certified
public accountants selected by the Depositor or the Trustee and to discuss its
affairs, finances and accounts relating to the Mortgage Loans with its officers,
employees and independent public accountants (and by this provision the Master
Servicer hereby authorizes said accountants to discuss with such representative
such affairs, finances and accounts), all at such reasonable times and as often
as may be reasonably requested. Any out-of-pocket expense incident to the

involving such Person and that are backed by the same asset type backing
the Certificates, such report shall include such a statement to that

officers and directors shall be entitled to rely on upon each such
servicing criteria assessment.
(ii) Each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall deliver to the
Depositor and the Master Servicer a report of a registered public
accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Depositor that attests to, and

such annual compliance statement or report discloses any deficiencies or
defaults described to the registered
126
public accountants of such Person to enable such accountants to render the
certificates provided for in this Section 11.07.

Servicer (or by any Subservicer) for the benefit of the Depositor to comply with
the provisions of Section 3.16 and this Article XI to the same extent as if such
Subservicer were the Master Servicer (except with respect to the Master
Servicer's duties with respect to preparing and filing any Exchange Act Reports
or as the Certifying Person). The Master Servicer shall be responsible for
obtaining from each Subservicer and delivering to the Depositor any servicer
compliance statement required to be delivered by such Subservicer under Section
3.16, any assessment of compliance and attestation required to be delivered by
such Subservicer under Section 11.07 and any certification required to be
delivered to the Certifying Person under Section 11.05 as and when required to
be delivered. As a condition to the succession to any Subservicer as subservicer
under this Agreement by any Person (i) into which such Subservicer may be merged
or consolidated, or (ii) which may be appointed as a successor to any
Subservicer, the Master Servicer shall provide to the Depositor, at least 15
calendar days prior to the effective date of such succession or appointment, (x)
written notice to the Depositor of such succession or appointment and (y) in
writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all
information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to comply with its
reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K.

applicable, shall promptly upon request provide to the Depositor (or any
designee of the Depositor, such as the Master Servicer or administrator) a
written description (in form and substance satisfactory to the Depositor) of the
role and function of each Subcontractor utilized by such Person (or in the case
of the Master Servicer or any Subservicer), specifying (i) the identity of each
such Subcontractor, (ii) which (if any) of such Subcontractors are
"participating in the servicing function" within the meaning of Item 1122 of
Regulation AB, and (iii) which elements of the Servicing Criteria will be
addressed
127
in assessments of compliance provided by each Subcontractor identified pursuant
to clause (ii) of this paragraph.
As a condition to the utilization of any Subcontractor determined to
be a Reporting Subcontractor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable,
shall cause any such Subcontractor used by such Person (or in the case of the
Master Servicer or any Subservicer) for the benefit of the Depositor to comply
with the provisions of Sections 11.07 and 11.09 of this Agreement to the same
extent as if such Subcontractor were the Master Servicer (except with respect to
the Master Servicer's duties with respect to preparing and filing any Exchange
Act Reports or as the Certifying Person) or the Trustee, as applicable. The
Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be responsible for
obtaining from each Subcontractor and delivering to the Depositor and the Master
Servicer, any assessment of compliance and attestation required to be delivered
by such Subcontractor under Section 11.05 and Section 11.07, in each case as and
when required to be delivered.
SECTION 11.09. Amendments.
In the event the parties to this Agreement desire to further clarify
or amend any provision of this Article XI, this Agreement shall be amended to
reflect the new agreement between the parties covering matters in this Article
XI pursuant to Section 10.01, which amendment shall not require any Opinion of
Counsel or Rating Agency confirmations or the consent of any Certificateholder
or the NIM Insurer. If, during the period that the Depositor is required to file
Exchange Act Reports with respect to the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer is no
longer an Affiliate of the Depositor, the Depositor shall assume the obligations
and responsibilities of the Master Servicer in this Article XI with respect to
the preparation and filing of the Exchange Act Reports and/or acting as the
Certifying Person, if the Depositor has received indemnity from such successor
Master Servicer satisfactory to the Depositor, and such Master Servicer has
agreed to provide a Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification to the Depositor substantially
in the form of Exhibit Y and the certifications referred to in Section 11.07.

a seller, Park Monaco Inc., as a seller, Park Sienna LLC, as a seller,
Countrywide Home Loans Servicing LP, as master servicer, CWMBS, Inc., as

(1) The information set forth on Schedule I to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement with respect to each Mortgage Loan is true and correct in all material
respects as of the Closing Date.
(2) As of the Closing Date, all payments due with respect to each Mortgage
Loan prior to the Cut-off Date have been made; and as of the Cut-off Date, no

once during the twelve months prior to the Cut-off Date.
(3) No Mortgage Loan had a Loan-to-Value Ratio at origination in excess of
100.00%.
(4) Each Mortgage is a valid and enforceable first lien on the Mortgaged
Property subject only to (a) the lien of non delinquent current real property
taxes and assessments, (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of
way, easements and other matters of public record as of the date of recording of
such Mortgage, such exceptions appearing of record being acceptable to mortgage
lending institutions generally or specifically reflected in the appraisal made
in connection with the origination of the related Mortgage Loan, and (c) other
matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially
interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by such
Mortgage.
(5) [Reserved].
(6) There is no delinquent tax or assessment lien against any Mortgaged
Property.
(7) There is no valid offset, defense or counterclaim to any Mortgage Note
or Mortgage, including the obligation of the Mortgagor to pay the unpaid
principal of or interest on such Mortgage Note.
(8) There are no mechanics' liens or claims for work, labor or material
affecting any Mortgaged Property which are or may be a lien prior to, or equal
with, the lien of such Mortgage, except those which are insured against by the
title insurance policy referred to in item (12) below.
S-III-A-1
(9) As of the Closing Date, to the best of Countrywide's knowledge, each
Mortgaged Property is free of material damage and in good repair.
(10) Each Mortgage Loan at origination complied in all material respects
with applicable local, state and federal laws, including, without limitation,
usury, equal credit opportunity, predatory and abusive lending laws, real estate
settlement procedures, truth-in-lending and disclosure laws, and consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby will not involve the violation of any such
laws.
(11) As of the Closing Date, neither Countrywide nor any prior holder of
any Mortgage has modified the Mortgage in any material respect (except that a
Mortgage Loan may have been modified by a written instrument which has been
recorded or submitted for recordation, if necessary, to protect the interests of
the Certificateholders and the original or a copy of which has been delivered to
the Trustee); satisfied, cancelled or subordinated such Mortgage in whole or in
part; released the related Mortgaged Property in whole or in part from the lien
of such Mortgage; or executed any instrument of release, cancellation,
modification or satisfaction with respect thereto.
(12) A lender's policy of title insurance together with a condominium
endorsement and extended coverage endorsement, if applicable, in an amount at
least equal to the Cut-off Date Stated Principal Balance of each such Mortgage
Loan or a commitment (binder) to issue the same was effective on the date of the
origination of each Mortgage Loan, each such policy is valid and remains in full
force and effect, and each such policy was issued by a title insurer qualified
to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located and
acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC and is in a form acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC, which
policy insures Countrywide and successor owners of indebtedness secured by the
insured Mortgage, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage subject to the
exceptions set forth in paragraph (4) above and against any loss by reason of
the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting from the provisions of
the Mortgage providing for adjustment in the mortgage interest rate and/or
monthly payment; to the best of Countrywide's knowledge, no claims have been
made under such mortgage title insurance policy and no prior holder of the
related Mortgage, including Countrywide, has done, by act or omission, anything
which would impair the coverage of such mortgage title insurance policy.
(13) With respect to each Mortgage Loan, all mortgage rate and payment
adjustments, if any, made on or prior to the Cut-off Date have been made in
accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Note or subsequent
modifications, if any, and applicable law.
(14) Each Mortgage Loan was originated (within the meaning of Section
3(a)(41) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) by an entity that
satisfied at the time of origination the requirements of Section 3(a)(41) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
S-III-A-2
(15) To the best of Countrywide's knowledge, all of the improvements which
were included for the purpose of determining the Appraised Value of the
Mortgaged Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction
lines of such property, and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach
upon the Mortgaged Property.
(16) To the best of Countrywide's knowledge, no improvement located on or
being part of the Mortgaged Property is in violation of any applicable zoning
law or regulation. To the best of Countrywide's knowledge, all inspections,
licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with respect to all
occupied portions of the Mortgaged Property and, with respect to the use and
occupancy of the same, including but not limited to certificates of occupancy
and fire underwriting certificates, have been made or obtained from the
appropriate authorities, unless the lack thereof would not have a material
adverse effect on the value of such Mortgaged Property, and the Mortgaged
Property is lawfully occupied under applicable law.
(17) Each Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are genuine, and each is
the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof, enforceable in
accordance with its terms and under applicable law. To the best of Countrywide's
knowledge, all parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had legal capacity
to execute the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and each Mortgage Note and
Mortgage have been duly and properly executed by such parties.
(18) The proceeds of the Mortgage Loans have been fully disbursed, there is
no requirement for future advances thereunder and any and all requirements as to
completion of any on-site or off-site improvements and as to disbursements of
any escrow funds therefor have been complied with. All costs, fees and expenses
incurred in making, or closing or recording the Mortgage Loans were paid.
(19) The related Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions
which render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the
realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security,
including, (i) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by
trustee's sale, and (ii) otherwise by judicial foreclosure.
(20) With respect to each Mortgage constituting a deed of trust, a trustee,
duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been properly
designated and currently so serves and is named in such Mortgage, and no fees or
expenses are or will become payable by the Certificateholders to the trustee
under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee's sale after
default by the Mortgagor.
(21) Each Mortgage Note and each Mortgage is in substantially one of the
forms acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC, with such riders as have been acceptable to
FNMA or FHLMC, as the case may be.
(22) There exist no deficiencies with respect to escrow deposits and
payments, if such are required, for which customary arrangements for repayment
thereof have not been made, and no escrow deposits or payments of other charges
or payments due Countrywide have been capitalized under the Mortgage or the
related Mortgage Note.
S-III-A-3
(23) The origination, underwriting and collection practices used by
Countrywide with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been in all respects legal,
prudent and customary in the mortgage lending and servicing business.
(24) There is no pledged account or other security other than real estate
securing the Mortgagor's obligations in respect of any Mortgage Loan.
(25) No Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation feature, or other
contingent interest feature.
(26) Each Mortgage Loan contains a customary "due on sale" clause.
(27) As of the Closing Date, 49.69% of the Mortgage Loans in Loan Group 1,
64.03% of the Mortgage Loans in Loan Group 2 and 77.38% of the Mortgage Loans in
Loan Group 3 provide for a prepayment penalty.
(28) Each Mortgage Loan that had a Loan-to-Value Ratio at origination in
excess of 80% is the subject of a Primary Insurance Policy that insures that
portion of the principal balance equal to a specified percentage times the sum
of the remaining principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, the accrued
interest thereon and the related foreclosure expenses. The specified coverage
percentage for mortgage loans with terms to maturity of between 25 and 30 years
is 12% for Loan-to-Value Ratios between 80.01% and 85.00%, 25% for Loan-to-Value
Ratios between 85.01% and 90.00%, 30% for Loan-to-Value Ratios between 90.01%
and 95.00% and 35% for Loan-to-Value Ratios between 95.01% and 100%. The
specified coverage percentage for mortgage loans with terms to maturity of up to
20 years ranges from 6% to 12% for Loan-to-Value Ratios between 80.01% to
85.00%; from 12% to 20% for Loan-to-Value Ratios between 85.01% to 90.00% and
20% to 25% for Loan-to-Value Ratios between 90.01% to 95.00%. Each such Primary
Insurance Policy is issued by a Qualified Insurer. All provisions of any such
Primary Insurance Policy have been and are being complied with, any such policy
is in full force and effect, and all premiums due thereunder have been paid. Any
Mortgage subject to any such Primary Insurance Policy obligates either the
Mortgagor or the mortgagee thereunder to maintain such insurance and to pay all
premiums and charges in connection therewith, subject, in each case, to the
provisions of Section 3.09(b) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The
Mortgage Rate for each Mortgage Loan is net of any such insurance premium.
(29) As of the Closing Date, the improvements upon each Mortgaged Property
are covered by a valid and existing hazard insurance policy with a generally
acceptable carrier that provides for fire and extended coverage and coverage for
such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is
located in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum
insurable value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan or (ii) the
greater of (a) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (b) an
amount such that the proceeds of such policy shall be sufficient to prevent the
Mortgagor and/or the mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer. If the Mortgaged
Property is a condominium unit, it is included under the coverage afforded by a
blanket policy for the condominium unit. All such individual insurance policies
and all flood policies referred to in item (29) below contain a standard
mortgagee clause naming Countrywide or the original mortgagee, and its
successors in interest, as mortgagee, and Countrywide has received no notice
that any premiums due and
S-III-A-4
payable thereon have not been paid; the Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor
thereunder to maintain all such insurance including flood insurance at the
Mortgagor's cost and expense, and upon the Mortgagor's failure to do so,
authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to obtain and maintain such insurance at
the Mortgagor's cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the
Mortgagor.
(30) If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal
Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood
hazards, a flood insurance policy in a form meeting the requirements of the
current guidelines of the Flood Insurance Administration is in effect with
respect to such Mortgaged Property with a generally acceptable carrier in an
amount representing coverage not less than the least of (A) the original
outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (B) the minimum amount
required to compensate for damage or loss on a replacement cost basis, or (C)
the maximum amount of insurance that is available under the Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973, as amended.
(31) To the best of Countrywide's knowledge, there is no proceeding
occurring, pending or threatened for the total or partial condemnation of the
Mortgaged Property.
(32) There is no material monetary default existing under any Mortgage or
the related Mortgage Note and, to the best of Countrywide's knowledge, there is
no material event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the
expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach,
violation or event of acceleration under the Mortgage or the related Mortgage
Note; and Countrywide has not waived any default, breach, violation or event of
acceleration.
(33) Each Mortgaged Property is improved by a one- to four-family
residential dwelling including condominium units and dwelling units in PUDs,
which, to the best of Countrywide's knowledge, does not include cooperatives or
mobile homes and does not constitute other than real property under state law.
(34) Each Mortgage Loan is being master serviced by the Master Servicer.
(35) Any future advances made prior to the Cut-off Date have been
consolidated with the outstanding principal amount secured by the Mortgage, and
the secured principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single interest rate and
single repayment term reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. The consolidated
principal amount does not exceed the original principal amount of the Mortgage
Loan. The Mortgage Note does not permit or obligate the Master Servicer to make
future advances to the Mortgagor at the option of the Mortgagor.
(36) All taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, water, sewer
and municipal charges, leasehold payments or ground rents which previously
became due and owing have been paid, or an escrow of funds has been established
in an amount sufficient to pay for every such item which remains unpaid and
which has been assessed, but is not yet due and payable. Except for (A) payments
in the nature of escrow payments, and (B) interest accruing from the date of the
Mortgage Note or date of disbursement of the Mortgage proceeds, whichever is
later, to the day which precedes by one month the Due Date of the first
installment of principal and interest, including without limitation, taxes and
insurance payments, the Master
S-III-A-5
Servicer has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any
advance of funds by a party other than the Mortgagor, directly or indirectly,
for the payment of any amount required by the Mortgage.
(37) All of the Mortgage Loans were underwritten in all material respects
in accordance with Countrywide's underwriting guidelines as set forth in the
Prospectus Supplement. Each of the remaining Mortgage Loans were underwritten in
all material respects in accordance with the procedures set forth in the
Prospectus under "The Mortgage Pool - Underwriting Process".
(38) Other than with respect to any Streamlined Documentation Mortgage Loan
as to which the loan-to-value ratio of the related Original Mortgage Loan was
less than 90% at the time of the origination of such Original Mortgage Loan,
prior to the approval of the Mortgage Loan application, an appraisal of the
related Mortgaged Property was obtained from a qualified appraiser, duly
appointed by the originator, who had no interest, direct or indirect, in the
Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose
compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage
Loan; such appraisal is in a form acceptable to FNMA and FHLMC.
(39) None of the Mortgage Loans is a graduated payment mortgage loan or a
growing equity mortgage loan, and none of the Mortgage Loans is subject to a
buydown or similar arrangement.
(40) Any leasehold estate securing a Mortgage Loan has a term of not less
than five years in excess of the term of the related Mortgage Loan.
(41) The Mortgage Loans were selected from among the outstanding
adjustable-rate one- to four-family mortgage loans in the portfolios of the
Sellers at the Closing Date as to which the representations and warranties made
as to the Mortgage Loans set forth in this Schedule III can be made. Such
selection was not made in a manner intended to adversely affect the interests of
Certificateholders.
(42) With the exception of 11 Mortgage Loans in Loan Group 1, 3 Mortgage
Loans in Loan Group 2 and 1 Mortgage Loan in Loan Group 3, each Mortgage Loan
has a payment date on or before the Due Date in the month of the first
Distribution Date.
(43) With respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which an affidavit has been
delivered to the Trustee certifying that the original Mortgage Note is a Lost
Mortgage Note, if such Mortgage Loan is subsequently in default, the enforcement
of such Mortgage Loan or of the related Mortgage by or on behalf of the Trustee
will not be materially adversely affected by the absence of the original
Mortgage Note. A "Lost Mortgage Note" is a Mortgage Note the original of which
was permanently lost or destroyed and has not been replaced.
(44) The Mortgage Loans, individually and in the aggregate, conform in all
material respects to the descriptions thereof in the Prospectus Supplement.
(45) No loan is a High Cost Loan or Covered Loan, as applicable (as such
terms are defined in the then current Standard & Poor's LEVELS(R) Version 5.6(c)
Glossary Revised,
S-III-A-6
Appendix E) and no mortgage loan originated on or after October 1, 2002 through
March 6, 2003 is governed by the Georgia Fair Lending Act.

applicable predatory and abusive lending laws.

located in the State of Georgia.
(52) There is no Mortgage Loan in the Trust Fund that was originated on or
after March 7, 2003, which is a "high cost home loan" as defined under the
Georgia Fair Lending Act.
(53) No Mortgage Loan in the Trust Fund is a "high cost home," "covered"
(excluding home loans defined as "covered home loans" pursuant to the New Jersey
Home Ownership Security Act of 2002), "high risk home" or "predatory" loan under
any applicable state, federal or local law (or a similarly classified loan using
different terminology under a law imposing heightened regulatory scrutiny or

other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder
shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days
prior to the related Record Date and such Certificateholder shall hold 100% of
a Class of Regular Certificates or of Certificates with an aggregate Initial
Certificate Balance of $1,000,000 or more, or, if not, by check mailed by
first class mail to the address of such Certificateholder appearing in the
Certificate Register. The final distribution on each Certificate will be made
in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at
the Corporate Trust Office or such other location specified in the notice to
Certificateholders of such final distribution.
No transfer of a Class C Certificate shall be made unless such transfer
is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act and any
applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the registration
requirements under the Act and such laws. In the event that a transfer is to
be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Act and such laws, in order to
assure compliance with the Act and such laws, the Certificateholder desiring
to effect such transfer and such Certificateholder's prospective transferee
shall each certify to the Trustee in writing the facts surrounding the
transfer. In the event that such a transfer is to be made within two years
from the date of the initial issuance of Certificates, there shall also be
delivered (except in the case of a transfer pursuant to Rule 144A of the
Regulations promulgated pursuant to the Act) to the Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Act
and such state securities laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be obtained
at the expense of the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Depositor. The
Holder hereof desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree
to, indemnify the Trustee, the Certificate 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.
No transfer of a Class C Certificate shall be made unless the Trustee
shall have received either (i) a representation from the transferee of such
Certificate acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the
Trustee, to the effect that such transferee is not an employee benefit plan
subject to section 406 of ERISA or a plan subject to section 4975 of the Code,
or a Person acting on behalf of any such plan or using the assets of any such
plan, or (ii) in the case of any Class C Certificate presented for
registration in the name of an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA, or a
plan subject to section 4975
C-2-3
of the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent enactments), or a
trustee of any such plan or any other person acting on behalf of or investing
plan assets of any such plan, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the
Trustee to the effect that the purchase or holding of such Class C Certificate
will not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code and will not subject the Trustee to any obligation in
addition to those expressly undertaken in the Agreement, which Opinion of
Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee. Notwithstanding anything else
to the contrary herein, any purported transfer of a Class C Certificate to or
on behalf of an employee benefit plan subject to section 406 of ERISA or a
plan subject to section 4975 of the Code without the delivery to the Trustee
of an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee as described above shall
be void and of no effect.
This Class C Certificate may not be pledged or used as collateral for
any other obligation if it would cause any portion of the Trust Fund to be
treated as a taxable mortgage pool under Section 7701(i) of the Code.
Each Holder of this Class C Certificate will be deemed to have agreed to
be bound by the transfer restrictions set forth in the Agreement and all other
terms and provisions of the Agreement.
This Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the
Agreement or be valid for any purpose unless the certificate of authentication
hereon has been manually executed by an authorized officer of the Trustee.

Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 200____-____
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as CWMBS, Inc. Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, of the Series
specified on the face hereof (herein collectively called the "Certificates"),
and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund created by
the Agreement.
The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees
that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the Distribution Account
for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the
Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the
Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any
liability under the Agreement.
This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations
of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Trustee.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on
the 25th day of each month or, if that day is not a Business Day, on the first
Business Day thereafter, commencing on the first Distribution Date specified
on the face hereof, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered
at the close of business on the applicable Record Date in an amount equal to
the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the
amount required to be distributed to Holders of Certificates of the Class to
which this Certificate belongs on such Distribution Date pursuant to the
Agreement. The Record Date applicable to each Distribution Date is the last
Business Day of the month next preceding the month of such Distribution Date.
Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the account of the Holder hereof at a bank or
other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder
shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days
prior to the related Record Date and such Certificateholder shall satisfy the
conditions to receive such form of payment set forth in the Agreement, or, if
not, by check mailed by first class mail to the address of such
Certificateholder appearing in the Certificate Register. The final
distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon
presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office or
such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such
final distribution.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any
time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of
the Holders of Certificates affected by such amendment evidencing the
requisite Percentage Interest, as provided in the Agreement. Any such consent
by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such
Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate
issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof
whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The
Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited
circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate
Register of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of
transfer at the Corporate Trust Office or the office or agency maintained by
the Trustee
C-2-6
in New York, New York, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Trustee 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 Fund will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without
coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the
Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates
are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized
denominations and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Seller and the Trustee and any
agent of the Depositor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither
the Depositor, the Trustee, nor any such agent shall be affected by any notice
to the contrary.
On any Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance
of the Mortgage Loans and real estate owned by the trust fund is less than or
equal to 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans
as of the cut-off date, the holder of the Class C Certificates, at its option,
may direct the Trustee (or its agent) to begin an auction process to sell the
Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of the Mortgage Loans. At
the option of the holder of the Class C Certificates, but subject to the
rights of the Master Servicer described in the proviso to this sentence, this
process will be repeated once a month until the minimum bid price determined
as provided in the Agreement is received; provided, however, that if the first
auction is unsuccessful, or if the holder of the Class C Certificates does not
instruct the Trustee to begin the auction process, the Master Servicer will
have the option, subject to the limitations set forth in the Agreement, to
repurchase, in whole, from the Trust Fund all remaining Mortgage Loans and all
property acquired in respect of the Mortgage Loans at a purchase price
determined as provided in the Agreement. In the event that no termination of
the Trust Fund occurs pursuant to either of the two preceding sentences, the
obligations and responsibilities created by the 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 Fund or the
disposition of all property in respect thereof and the distribution to
Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed pursuant to the
Agreement. In no event, however, will the trust created by the Agreement
continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor
of the descendants living at the date of the Agreement of a certain person
named in the Agreement.
Any term used herein that is defined in the Agreement shall have the
meaning assigned in the Agreement, and nothing herein shall be deemed
inconsistent with that meaning.

Each Holder of this Class P Certificate will be deemed to have agreed to
be bound by the transfer restrictions set forth in the Agreement and all other

C-4-2
No transfer of a Certificate of this Class shall be made unless such
transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the
registration requirements under said Act and such laws. In the event that a
transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act
and such laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities Act and such
laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer and such
Certificateholder's prospective transferee shall each certify to the Trustee

CWMBS, INC.
Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as CWMBS, Inc. Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, of the Series
specified on the face hereof (herein collectively called the "Certificates"),
and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund created by
the Agreement.
The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees
that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the Distribution Account
for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the
Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the
Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any
liability under the Agreement.
This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and
reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations
of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights,
duties and immunities of the Trustee.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on
the 25th day of each month or, if such day is not a Business Day, the Business
Day immediately following (the "Distribution Date"), commencing on the first
Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the Person in whose name
this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the applicable
Record Date in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest
evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to
Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such
Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement. The Record Date applicable to
each Distribution Date is the last Business Day of the month next preceding
the month of such Distribution Date.
Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the account of the Holder hereof at a bank or
other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder
shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days
prior to the related Record Date and such Certificateholder shall satisfy the
conditions to receive such form of payment set forth in the Agreement, or, if
not, by check mailed by first class mail to the address of such
Certificateholder appearing in the Certificate Register. The final
distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon
presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office or
such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such
final distribution.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any
time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the
E-1
Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates affected by such
amendment evidencing the requisite Percentage Interest, as provided in the
Agreement. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be
conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this
Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in
exchange therefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is
made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof,
in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of
the Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate
Register of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of
transfer at the Corporate Trust Office or the office or agency maintained by
the Trustee in New York, New York, accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee 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 Fund will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without
coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the
Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates
are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized
denominations and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Sellers and the Trustee and any
agent of the Depositor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither
the Depositor, the Trustee, nor any such agent shall be affected by any notice
to the contrary.
On any Distribution Date on which the Pool Stated Principal Balance is
less than or equal to 10% of the Cut-off Date Pool Principal Balance, the
Master Servicer will have the option, subject to the limitations set forth in
the Agreement, to repurchase, in whole, from the Trust Fund all remaining
Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of the Mortgage Loans at a
purchase price determined as provided in the Agreement. In the event that no
such optional termination occurs, the obligations and responsibilities created
by the 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 Fund or the disposition of all property in respect
thereof and the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required to
be distributed pursuant to the Agreement. In no event, however, will the trust
created by the Agreement continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the
death of the last survivor of the descendants living at the date of the
Agreement of a certain person named in the Agreement.

) ss.:
COUNTY OF )
The undersigned, being first duly sworn, deposes and says as follows:
1. The undersigned is an officer of , the proposed Transferee of an
Ownership Interest in a Class A-R Certificate (the "Certificate") issued
pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of _________ __,
2___ (the "Agreement"), by and among CWMBS, Inc., as depositor (the
"Depositor"), Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. (the "Company"), as a Seller, Park
Granada LLC, as a Seller, Park Monaco, Inc., as a Seller, Park Sienna LLC, as
a Seller (and together with the Company, Park Granada and Park Monaco, the
"Sellers"), Countrywide Home Loans Servicing LP, as Master Servicer and The
Bank of New York, as Trustee. Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein
or in Exhibit 1 hereto, shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the
Agreement. The Transferee has authorized the undersigned to make this
affidavit on behalf of the Transferee.
2. The Transferee is not an employee benefit plan that is subject to
Title I of ERISA or to section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, nor
is it acting on behalf of or with plan assets of any such plan. The Transferee
is, as of the date hereof, and will be, as of the date of the Transfer, a
Permitted Transferee. The Transferee will endeavor to remain a Permitted
Transferee for so long as it retains its Ownership Interest in the
Certificate. The Transferee is acquiring its Ownership Interest in the
Certificate for its own account.
3. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that (i) a
tax will be imposed on Transfers of the Certificate to Persons that are not
Permitted Transferees; (ii) such tax will be imposed on the transferor, or, if
such Transfer is through an agent (which includes a broker, nominee or
middleman) for a Person that is 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
Transfer, such Person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is
false.
4. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that a tax
will be imposed on a "pass-through entity" holding the Certificate if at any
time during the taxable year of the pass-through entity a Person that is not a
Permitted Transferee is the record holder of an
I-1
interest in such entity. The Transferee understands that such tax will not be
imposed for any period with respect to which the record holder furnishes to
the pass-through entity an affidavit that such record holder is a Permitted
Transferee and the pass-through entity does not have actual knowledge that
such affidavit is false. (For this purpose, a "pass-through entity" includes a
regulated investment company, a real estate investment trust or common trust
fund, a partnership, trust or estate, and certain cooperatives and, except as
may be provided in Treasury Regulations, persons holding interests in
pass-through entities as a nominee for another Person.)
5. The Transferee has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.02(c) of
the Agreement (attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and incorporated herein by
reference) and understands the legal consequences of the acquisition of an
Ownership Interest in the Certificate including, without limitation, the
restrictions on subsequent Transfers and the provisions regarding voiding the
Transfer and mandatory sales. The Transferee expressly agrees to be bound by
and to abide by the provisions of Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement and the
restrictions noted on the face of the Certificate. The Transferee understands
and agrees that any breach of any of the representations included herein shall
render the Transfer to the Transferee contemplated hereby null and void.
6. The Transferee agrees to require a Transfer Affidavit from any
Person to whom the Transferee attempts to Transfer its Ownership Interest in
the Certificate, and in connection with any Transfer by a Person for whom the
Transferee is acting as nominee, trustee or agent, and the Transferee will not
Transfer its Ownership Interest or cause any Ownership Interest to be
Transferred to any Person that the Transferee knows is not a Permitted
Transferee. In connection with any such Transfer by the Transferee, the
Transferee agrees to deliver to the Trustee a certificate substantially in the
form set forth as Exhibit J-1 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.
7. The Transferee does not have the intention to impede the
assessment or collection of any tax legally required to be paid with respect
to the Class A-R Certificates.
8. The Transferee's taxpayer identification number is
______________.
9. The Transferee is a U.S. Person as defined in Code section
7701(a)(30) and, unless the Transferor (or any subsequent transferor)
expressly waives such requirement, will not cause income from the 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 another
U.S. taxpayer.
10. The Transferee is aware that the Class A-R Certificates may be
"noneconomic residual interests" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation
Section 1.860E-1(c) and that the transferor of a noneconomic residual interest
will remain liable for any taxes due with respect to the income on such
residual interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer was to impede
the assessment or collection of tax. In addition, as the Holder of a
noneconomic residual interest, the Transferee may incur tax liabilities in
excess of any cash
I-2
flows generated by the interest and the Transferee hereby represents that it
intends to pay taxes associated with holding the residual interest as they
become due.
11. The Transferee has provided financial statements or other
financial information requested by the Transferor in connection with the
transfer of the Certificate to permit the Transferor to assess the financial
capability of the Transferee to pay such taxes. The Transferee historically
has paid its debts as they have come due and intends to pay its debts as they
come due in the future.
12. Unless the Transferor (or any subsequent transferor) expressly
waives such requirement, the Transferee (and any subsequent transferee)
certifies (or will certify), respectively, that the transfer satisfies either
the "Asset Test" imposed by Treasury Regulation ss. 1.860E-1(c)(5) or the
"Formula Test" imposed by Treasury Regulation ss. 1.860E-1(c)(7).

EXHIBIT 1 to
EXHIBIT I
Certain Definitions
"Asset Test": A transfer satisfies the Asset Test if: (i) At the
time of the transfer, and at the close of each of the transferee's two fiscal
years preceding the transferee's fiscal year of transfer, the transferee's
gross assets for financial reporting purposes exceed $100 million and its net
assets for financial reporting purposes exceed $10 million. The gross assets
and net assets of a transferee do not include any obligation of any "related
person" or any other asset if a principal purpose for holding or acquiring the
other asset is to permit the transferee to satisfy such monetary conditions;
(ii) The transferee must be an "eligible corporation" and must agree in
writing that any subsequent transfer of the interest will be to another
eligible corporation in a transaction that satisfies paragraphs 9 through 11
of this Transfer Affidavit and the Asset Test. A transfer fails to meet the
Asset Test if the transferor knows, or has reason to know, that the transferee
will not honor the restrictions on subsequent transfers of the Certificate;
and (iii) A reasonable person would not conclude, based on the facts and
circumstances known to the transferor on or before the date of the transfer,
that the taxes associated with the Certificate will not be paid. The
consideration given to the transferee to acquire the Certificate is only one
factor to be considered, but the transferor will be deemed to know that the
transferee cannot or will not pay if the amount of consideration is so low
compared to the liabilities assumed that a reasonable person would conclude
that the taxes associated with holding the Certificate will not be paid. For
purposes of applying the Asset Test, (i) an "eligible corporation" means any
domestic C corporation (as defined in section 1361(a)(2) of the Code) other
than (A) a corporation which is exempt from, or is not subject to, tax under
section 11 of the Code, (B) an entity described in section 851(a) or 856(a) of
the Code, (C) A REMIC, or (D) an organization to which part I of subchapter T
of chapter 1 of subtitle A of the Code applies; (ii) a "related person" is any
person that (A) bears a relationship to the transferee enumerated in section
267(b) or 707(b)(1) of the Code, using "20 percent" instead of "50 percent"
where it appears under the provisions, or (B) is under common control (within
the meaning of section 52(a) and (b)) with the transferee.
"Formula Test": A transfer satisfies the formula test if the present
value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the
Certificate does not exceed the sum of (i) the present value of any
consideration given to the transferee to acquire the Certificate; (ii) the
present value of the expected future distributions on the Certificate; and
(iii) the present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding
the Certificate as the issuing REMIC generates losses. For purposes of
applying the Formula Test: (i) The transferee is assumed to pay tax at a rate
equal to the highest rate of tax specified in section 11(b)(1) of the Code. If
the transferee has been subject to the alternative minimum tax under section
55 of the Code in the preceding two years and will compute its taxable income
in the current taxable year using the alternative minimum tax rate, then the

EXHIBIT I
Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement
(c) Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a
Class A-R 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 Class A-R
Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:
(1) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Class A-R Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly
notify the Trustee of any change or impending change in its status as a
Permitted Transferee.
(2) Except in connection with (i) the registration of the Tax
Matters Person Certificate in the name of the Trustee or (ii) any
registration in the name of, or transfer of a Class A-R Certificate to,
an affiliate of the Depositor (either directly or through a nominee) in
connection with the initial issuance of the Certificates, no Ownership
Interest in a Class A-R Certificate may be registered on the Closing Date
or thereafter transferred, and the Trustee shall not register the
Transfer of any Class A-R Certificate unless, the Trustee shall have been
furnished with an affidavit (a "Transfer Affidavit") of the initial owner
or the proposed transferee in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I.
(3) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Class A-R Certificate shall agree (A) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit from
any other Person to whom such Person attempts to Transfer its Ownership
Interest in a Class A-R Certificate, (B) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit
from any Person for whom such Person is acting as nominee, trustee or
agent in connection with any Transfer of a Class A-R Certificate and (C)
not to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Class A-R Certificate, or to
cause the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class A-R Certificate to
any other Person, if it has actual knowledge that such Person is not a
Permitted Transferee.
(4) Any attempted or purported Transfer of any Ownership Interest in
a Class A-R Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section
5.02(c) shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the
purported Transferee. If any purported transferee shall become a Holder
of a Class A-R Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section
5.02(c), then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored
to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration
of Transfer of such Class A-R Certificate. The Trustee shall be under no
liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of a Class A-R
Certificate that is in fact not permitted by Section 5.02(b) and this
Section 5.02(c) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the
Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder
under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the Transfer was
registered after receipt of the related Transfer Affidavit and Transferor
Certificate. The Trustee shall be entitled but not obligated to recover
from any Holder of a Class A-R Certificate that was in fact not a
Permitted
I-8
Transferee at the time it became a Holder or, at such subsequent time as
it became other than a Permitted Transferee, all payments made on such
Class A-R Certificate at and after either such time. Any such payments so
recovered by the Trustee shall be paid and delivered by the Trustee to
the last preceding Permitted Transferee of such Certificate.
(5) The Depositor shall use its best efforts to make available, upon
receipt of written request from the Trustee, all information necessary to
compute any tax imposed under section 860E(e) of the Code as a result of
a Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class A-R Certificate to any
Holder who is not a Permitted Transferee.
The restrictions on Transfers of a Class A-R Certificate set forth in this
section 5.02(c) shall cease to apply (and the applicable portions of the
legend on a Class A-R Certificate may be deleted) with respect to Transfers
occurring after delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel, which
Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Sellers or the
Master Servicer, to the effect that the elimination of such restrictions will
not cause any constituent REMIC of any REMIC formed hereunder to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding or result
in the imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund, a Certificateholder or another
Person. Each Person holding or acquiring any ownership Interest in a Class A-R
Certificate hereby consents to any amendment of this Agreement that, based on
an Opinion of Counsel furnished to the Trustee, is reasonably necessary (a) to
ensure that the record ownership of, or any beneficial interest in, a Class
A-R Certificate is not transferred, directly or indirectly, to a Person that
is not a Permitted Transferee and (b) to provide for a means to compel the
Transfer of a Class A-R Certificate that is held by a Person that is not a
Permitted Transferee to a Holder that is a Permitted Transferee.

APPENDIX E - Standard & Poor's Predatory Lending Categories
-----------------------------------------------------------
Standard & Poor's has categorized loans governed by anti-predatory
lending laws in the Jurisdictions listed below into three categories based
upon a combination of factors that include (a) the risk exposure associated
with the assignee liability and (b) the tests and thresholds set forth in
those laws. Note that certain loans classified by the relevant statute as
Covered are included in Standard & Poor's High Cost Loan Category because they
included thresholds and tests that are typical of what is generally considered
High Cost by the industry.
