This Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated and effective as of November 1, 2005, is entered into among Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, as company (the “Company”), Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A., as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”) and as securities administrator (in such capacity, the “Securities Administrator”), and HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”).
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:
The Company intends to sell pass-through certificates (collectively, the “Certificates”), to be issued hereunder in multiple classes, which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund created hereunder. The Certificates will consist of twenty-five classes of certificates, designated as (i) the Class I-APT, Class I-A1A, Class I-A1B, Class I-A1C, Class I-A1D, Class I-A2, Class II-A1A, Class II-A1B, Class II-A1C, Class II-A1D1, Class II-A1D2 and Class II-AN Certificates, (ii) the Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5, Class M-6, Class M-7, Class M-8, Class M-9 and Class M-10 Certificates, (iii) the Class C Certificates, (iv) the Class P Certificates and (v) the Class R Certificates.
REMIC 1
As provided herein, the Trustee will make an election to treat the segregated pool of assets consisting of the Trust Fund (exclusive of the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Supplemental Interest Trust and the Swap Agreement) as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets will be designated as “REMIC 1”. The Class R-1 Interest will represent the sole class of “residual interests” in REMIC 1 for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.
The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation, the Uncertificated REMIC 1 Pass-Through Rate, the initial Uncertificated Principal Balance, and for purposes of satisfying Treasury regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the “latest possible maturity date” for each of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests. None of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests will be certificated.

For purposes of Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the Treasury regulations, the Distribution Date in the month following the maturity date for the Mortgage Loan with the latest possible maturity date has been designated as the “latest possible maturity date” for each REMIC 1 Regular Interest. |
|
(2) |
Calculated in accordance with the definition of “Uncertificated REMIC 1 Pass-Through Rate” herein. |
REMIC 2

|
(7) |
For federal income tax purposes, the Class IO Interest will not have an Uncertificated Principal Balance, but will have a notional amount equal to the Uncertificated Notional Amount of REMIC 2 Regular Interest IO. |

Section 1.02 |
Determination of LIBOR. |
LIBOR applicable to the calculation of the Pass-Through Rate on the Class A Certificates and Class M Certificates for the Interest Determination Date for the initial Accrual Period shall
be 4.21% per annum and for each subsequent Accrual Period will be determined on each subsequent Interest Determination Date.
On each Interest Determination Date following the initial Interest Determination Date, LIBOR shall be established by the Securities Administrator and, as to any Accrual Period, will equal the rate for one month United States dollar deposits that appears on the Telerate Screen Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Interest Determination Date. “Telerate Screen Page 3750” means the display designated as page 3750 on the Telerate Service (or such other page as may replace page 3750 on that service for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates of major banks). If such rate does not appear on such page (or such other page as may replace that page on that service, or if such service is no longer offered, LIBOR shall be so established by use of such other service for displaying LIBOR or comparable rates as may be selected by the Securities Administrator), the rate will be the Reference Bank Rate. The “Reference Bank Rate” will be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in U.S. Dollars are offered by the reference banks (which shall be any three major banks that are engaged in transactions in the London interbank market, selected by the Securities Administrator after consultation with the Master Servicer) as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the Interest Determination Date to prime banks in the London interbank market for a period of one month in amounts approximately equal to the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A Certificates and Class M Certificates then outstanding. The Securities Administrator will request the principal London office of each of the reference banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, the rate will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations rounded up to the next multiple of 1/16%. If on such date fewer than two quotations are provided as requested, the rate will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by one or more major banks in New York City, selected by the Securities Administrator, as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date for loans in U.S. Dollars to leading European banks for a period of one month in amounts approximately equal to the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A Certificates and Class M Certificates then outstanding. If no such quotations can be obtained, the rate will be LIBOR for the prior Distribution Date; provided however, if, under the priorities described above, LIBOR for a Distribution Date would be based on LIBOR for the previous Distribution Date for the third consecutive Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall select an alternative comparable index (over which the Securities Administrator has no control), used for determining one-month Eurodollar lending rates that is calculated and published (or otherwise made available) by an independent party.
The establishment of LIBOR by the Securities Administrator on any Interest Determination Date and the Trustee’s subsequent calculation of the Pass-Through Rate applicable to the Class A Certificates and Class M Certificates for the relevant Accrual Period, in the absence of manifest error, will be final and binding.
The Securities Administrator will supply to any Certificateholder so requesting by telephone the Pass-Through Rate on the Class A Certificates and Class M Certificates for the current and the immediately preceding Accrual Period.

Section 1.03 |
Allocation of Certain Interest Shortfalls. |
For purposes of calculating the amount of the Accrued Certificate Interest for the Class A, Class M and Class C Certificates for any Distribution Date, the aggregate amount of any Net Prepayment Interest Shortfalls and any Relief Act Interest Shortfalls incurred in respect of the Mortgage Loans for any Distribution Date shall be allocated first, to the Class C Certificates to the extent of one month’s interest at the then applicable Pass-Through Rate on the Notional Amount of each such Certificate and, thereafter, among the Class A Certificates and Class M Certificates on a pro rata basis based on, and to the extent of, one month’s interest at the then applicable respective Pass-Through Rate on the respective Certificate Principal Balance of each such Certificate.
For purposes of calculating the amount of Uncertificated Accrued Interest for the REMIC 1 Group I Regular Interests for any Distribution Date the aggregate amount of any Net Prepayment Interest Shortfalls and any Relief Act Interest Shortfalls incurred in respect of Loan Group I shall be allocated first, REMIC 1 Regular Interest I and to the REMIC 1 Group I Regular Interests ending with the designation “B”, pro rata based on, and to the extent of, one month’s interest at the then applicable respective Uncertificated REMIC 1 Pass-Through Rates on the respective Uncertificated Principal Balances of each such REMIC 1 Regular Interest , and then, to REMIC 1 Group I Regular Interests ending with the designation “A”, pro rata based on, and to the extent of, one month’s interest at the then applicable respective Uncertificated REMIC 1 Pass-Through Rates on the respective Uncertificated Principal Balances of each such REMIC 1 Regular Interest. For purposes of calculating the amount of Uncertificated Accrued Interest for the REMIC 1 Group II Regular Interests for any Distribution Date the aggregate amount of any Net Prepayment Interest Shortfalls and any Relief Act Interest Shortfalls incurred in respect of Loan Group II shall be allocated to REMIC 1 Regular Interest II.
The REMIC 2 Marker Allocation Percentage of the aggregate amount of any Net Prepayment Interest Shortfalls and any Relief Act Interest Shortfalls incurred in respect of the Mortgage Loans for any Distribution Date shall be allocated among REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-AA, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-I-APT, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-I-A1A, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-I-A1B, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-I-A1C, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-I-A1D, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-I-A2, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-II-A1A, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-II-A1B, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-II-A1C, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-II-A1D1, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-II-A1D2, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-II-AN, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-M1, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-M2, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-M3, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-M4, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-M5, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-M6, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-M7, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-M8, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-M9, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-M10 and REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-ZZ, pro rata, based on, and to the extent of, one month’s interest at the then applicable respective Uncertificated REMIC 2 Pass-Through Rates on the respective Uncertificated Principal Balances of each such REMIC 2 Regular Interest.
The REMIC 2 Sub WAC Allocation Percentage of the aggregate amount of any Net Prepayment Interest Shortfalls and any Relief Act Interest Shortfalls incurred in respect of the Mortgage Loans for any Distribution Date shall be allocated to Uncertificated Accrued Interest payable to REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-1SUB, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-1GRP, REMIC 2
Regular Interest LT-2SUB, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-2GRP and REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT-XX, pro rata, based on, and to the extent of, one month’s interest at the then applicable respective Uncertificated REMIC 2 Pass-Through Rates on the respective Uncertificated Principal Balances of each such REMIC 2 Regular Interest.

Section 2.01 |
Conveyance of Mortgage Loans. |
The Company, as of the Closing Date, and concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does hereby assign, transfer, sell, set over and otherwise convey to the Trustee without recourse all the right, title and interest of the Company in and to (1) the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule (including any Prepayment Charges but exclusive of any late payment charges received thereon), (2) the rights with respect to the Servicing Agreement as assigned to the Trustee on behalf the Certificateholders by the Assignment Agreement and (3) all other assets included or to be included in the Trust Fund for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Such assignment includes all principal and interest due and received by the Servicer on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than payment of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-off Date). In addition, on or prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor shall cause the Certificate Insurer to deliver the Class II-A1D2 Policy to the Trustee.
The Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee agree that it is not intended that any Mortgage Loan be included in the Trust that is either (i) a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in the New Jersey Home Ownership Act effective November 27, 2003, (ii) a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in the New Mexico Home Loan Protection Act effective January 1, 2004, (iii) a “High Cost Home Mortgage Loan” as defined in the Massachusetts Predatory Home Practices Act effective November 7, 2004, or (iv) a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in the Indiana House Enrolled Act No. 1229, effective as of January 1, 2005.
In connection with such transfer and assignment, the Company has caused the Seller to deliver to, and deposit with the Custodian as agent for the Trustee, as described in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, with respect to each Mortgage Loan, the following documents or instruments:
(i) the original Mortgage Note (including all riders thereto) bearing all intervening endorsements necessary to show a complete chain of endorsements from the original payee, endorsed “Pay to the order of _____without recourse”, via original signature, and, if previously endorsed, signed in the name of the last endorsee by a duly qualified officer of the last endorsee or, with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the original Mortgage Note has been permanently lost or destroyed and has not been replaced, a Lost Note Affidavit. If the Mortgage Loan was acquired by the last endorsee in a merger, the endorsement must be by “[name of last endorsee], successor by merger to [name of the predecessor].” If the Mortgage Loan was acquired or originated by the last endorsee while doing business under another name, the endorsement must be by “[name of last endorsee], formerly known as [previous name].” Within 45 days after the Closing Date, the Custodian shall endorse the Mortgage Note in the name of “HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as trustee under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-5” for each Mortgage Note;
(ii) The original recorded Mortgage, noting the presence of the MIN of the Mortgage Loan and either language indicating that 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; provided that if such document is not included because of a delay by the public recording office where such document has been delivered for recordation or such office as a matter of policy does not return the original of such document or if such original Mortgage has been lost, the Seller shall include or cause to be included a copy thereof certified by the appropriate recording office, if available;
(iii) the original Assignment of Mortgage in blank, in form and substance acceptable for recordation in the jurisdiction in which the related mortgage property is located and signed in the name of the Last Endorsee by an authorized officer; unless the Mortgage Loan is registered on the MERS system;
(iv) The original intervening Assignments, if any, with evidence of recording thereon, showing an unbroken chain of title to the Mortgage from the originator thereof to Person assigning it to the Trustee (or to MERS, if the Mortgage Loan is registered on the MERS® System); provided that if such document is not included because of a delay by the public recording office where such document has been delivered for recordation or such office as a matter of policy does not return the original of such document, the Seller shall include or cause to be included a copy thereof certified by the appropriate recording office, if available;
(v) The originals of each assumption, modification or substitution agreement, if any, relating to the Mortgage Loan; and
(vi) the original title insurance policy, or, if such policy has not been issued, any one of an original or a copy of the preliminary title report, title binder or title commitment on the Mortgaged Property with the original policy of the insurance to be delivered promptly following the receipt thereof.
Within 30 days after the Closing Date, the Company shall complete or cause to be completed the Assignments of Mortgage in the name of “HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as trustee under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-5” (or shall prepare or cause to be prepared new forms of Assignment of Mortgage so completed in the name of the Trustee) for each Mortgage Property in a state, if any, which is specifically excluded from the Opinion of Counsel delivered by the Company to the Trustee and the Custodian, each such assignment shall be recorded in the appropriate public office for real property records, and returned to the Custodian, at no expense to the Custodian.
The Seller is obligated as described in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, to deliver to the Custodian as agent for the Trustee: (a) either the original recorded Mortgage, or in the event such original cannot be delivered by the Seller, a copy of such Mortgage certified as true and complete by the appropriate recording office, in those instances where a copy thereof certified by the Seller was delivered to the Custodian as
agent for the Trustee pursuant to clause (ii) above; and (b) either the original Assignment or Assignments of the Mortgage, with evidence of recording thereon, showing an unbroken chain of assignment from the originator to the Seller, or in the event such original cannot be delivered by the Seller, a copy of such Assignment or Assignments certified as true and complete by the appropriate recording office, in those instances where copies thereof certified by the Seller were delivered to the Custodian as agent for the Trustee pursuant to clause (iv) above. However, pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Seller need not cause to be recorded any assignment in any jurisdiction under the laws of which, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered by the Seller to the Trustee, the Custodian and the Rating Agencies, the recordation of such assignment is not necessary to protect the Trustee’s interest in the related Mortgage Loan; provided, however, notwithstanding the delivery of any Opinion of Counsel, each assignment shall be submitted for recording by the Seller in the manner described above, at no expense to the Trust or the Trustee, upon the earliest to occur of: (i) reasonable direction by the Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights, (ii) the occurrence of an Event of Default, (iii) the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Seller, (iv) the occurrence of a servicing transfer as described in Section 7.02 hereof and (v) if the Seller is not the Master Servicer and with respect to any one assignment, the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.01, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original Mortgage after it has been recorded, the Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligations hereunder upon delivery to the Custodian as agent for the Trustee of a copy of such Mortgage certified by the public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the recorded original thereof.
If any Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded to the Custodian as agent for the Trustee because of any defect therein, the Seller is required, as described in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, to prepare a substitute Assignment or cure such defect, as the case may be, and the Seller shall cause such Assignment to be recorded in accordance with this section.
The Seller is required as described in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, to exercise its best reasonable efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Custodian as agent for the Trustee within 120 days of the Closing Date, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, the original or a photocopy of the title insurance policy with respect to each such Mortgage Loan assigned to the Trustee pursuant to this Section 2.01.
In connection with the assignment of any Mortgage Loan registered on the MERS® System, the Seller further agrees that it will cause, at the Seller’s own expense, as of the Closing Date, the MERS® System to indicate that such Mortgage Loans have been assigned by the 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 (a) the code in the field which identifies the specific Trustee and (b) the code in the field “Pool Field” which identifies the series of the Certificates issued in connection with such Mortgage Loans. The Company further agrees that it will not, and will not permit the Servicer to alter the codes referenced in this paragraph with respect to any Mortgage Loan during the term of this Agreement unless and until such Mortgage Loan is repurchased in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
All original documents relating to the Mortgage Loans which are not delivered to the Custodian as agent for the Trustee are and shall be held by the Seller in trust for the benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders.
Except as may otherwise expressly be provided herein, none of the Company, the Custodian, the Master Servicer, or the Trustee shall (and the Master Servicer shall ensure that no Servicer shall) assign, sell, dispose of or transfer any interest in the Trust Fund or any portion thereof, or cause the Trust Fund or any portion thereof to be subject to any lien, claim, mortgage, security interest, pledge or other encumbrance.
It is intended that the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans by the Company to the Trustee as provided in this Section be, and be construed as, a sale of the Mortgage Loans as provided for in this Section 2.01 by the Company to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders. It is, further, not intended that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the Company to the Trustee to secure a debt or other obligation of the Company. However, in the event that the Mortgage Loans are held to be property of the Company, or if for any reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans, then it is intended that, (a) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction; (b) the conveyance provided for in this Section shall be deemed to be (1) a grant by the Company to the Trustee of a security interest in all of the Company’s right (including the power to convey title thereto), title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to (A) the Mortgage Loans, including the Mortgage Notes, the Mortgages, any related Insurance Policies and all other documents in the related Mortgage Files, (B) all amounts payable to the holders of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms thereof (C) the Class II-A1D2 Policy and (D) all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other property, including without limitation all amounts from time to time held or invested in the Certificate Account or the Custodial Account, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property and (2) an assignment by the Company to the Trustee of any security interest in any and all of the Seller’s right (including the power to convey title thereto), title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to the property described in the foregoing clauses (1)(A) through (D); (c) the possession by the Custodian as agent for the Trustee or any other agent of the Trustee of Mortgage Notes and such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be “possession by the secured party” or possession by a purchaser or a person designated by such secured party, for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the New York Uniform Commercial Code and the Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction (including, without limitation, Sections 9-115, 9-305, 8-102, 8-301, 8-501 and 8-503 thereof); and (d) notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Trustee for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. The Company and the Trustee 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 Mortgage Loans and the REMIC 1 Regular Interests, 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.
Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Swap Agreement shall be delivered to the Trustee. In connection therewith, the Company hereby directs the Trustee (solely in its capacity as such) to execute and deliver the Swap Agreement.

Section 2.02 |
Acceptance of the Trust Fund by the Trustee. |
The Trustee acknowledges receipt (subject to any exceptions noted in the Initial Certification described below), of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 above and all other assets included in the definition of “Trust Fund” and declares that it (or the Custodian on its behalf) holds and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered to Custodian as agent for the Trustee constituting the Mortgage Files, and that it holds or will hold such other assets included in the definition of “Trust Fund” (to the extent delivered or assigned to the Custodian as agent for the Trustee), in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.
The Trustee agrees that, for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer, the Custodian as agent for the Trustee will review each Mortgage File on or before the Closing Date to ascertain that all documents required to be delivered to it are in its possession, and the Custodian as agent for the Trustee agrees to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Company and the Certificate Insurer on the Closing Date, with respect to each Mortgage Loan, an Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C to the effect that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in such certification as not covered by such certification), (i) all documents required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such Mortgage Loan are in its possession, and (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it and appear regular on their face and relate to such Mortgage Loan. Neither the Custodian, the Trustee or the Master Servicer shall be under any duty to determine whether any Mortgage File should include any of the documents specified in clauses (v) or (vi) of Section 2.01. Neither the Custodian, the Trustee or the Master Servicer shall be under any 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, or they are in recordable form or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face.
Within 180 days of the Closing Date, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, the Custodian as agent for the Trustee shall deliver to the Company and the Certificate Insurer a Final Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit D evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon.
If in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and preparing the certifications referred to above the Custodian as agent for the Trustee or the Master Servicer finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective in any material respect, the Custodian as agent for the Trustee shall promptly notify the Trustee, the Seller and the Company. The Custodian as agent for the Trustee shall promptly notify the Seller and the
Securities Administrator of such defect and request that the Seller cure any such defect within 60 days from the date on which the Seller was notified of such defect, and if the Seller does not cure such defect in all material respects during such period, request on behalf of the Certificateholders that the Seller purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price within 90 days after the date on which the Seller was notified of such defect; provided that if such defect would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a “qualified mortgage” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure or repurchase must occur within 90 days from the date such breach was discovered. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller to cure a material defect in, or purchase any Mortgage Loan as to which a material defect in a constituent document exists shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such defect available to Certificateholders or the Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders. The Purchase Price for the purchased Mortgage Loan shall be deposited or caused to be deposited upon receipt by the Master Servicer in the Custodial Account and, upon receipt by the Custodian as agent for the Trustee and the Securities Administrator of written notification of such deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the Custodian as agent for the Trustee shall release or cause to be released to the Seller the related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Seller shall require as necessary to vest in the Seller ownership of any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and at such time the Custodian as agent for the Trustee shall have no further responsibility with respect to the related Mortgage File. In furtherance of the foregoing, if the Seller is not a member of MERS and the Mortgage is registered on the MERS® System, the Trustee, at the Seller’s expense, shall cause MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the Seller and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the MERS® System in accordance with MERS’ rules and regulations.

Upon discovery by either the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Custodian or the Trustee of a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in this Section 2.03 which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties.
|
|
Section 2.04 |
Assignment of Interest in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. |
The Company hereby assigns to the Trustee for the benefit of Certificateholders all of its rights (but none of its obligations) in, to and under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. Insofar as the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement relates to such representations and warranties and any remedies provided thereunder for any breach of such representations and warranties, such right, title and interest may be enforced by the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders. Upon the discovery by the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially and adversely affects the value of a Mortgage Loan or the interests of the Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Seller of such breach and request that the Seller shall, within 90 days from the date that the Seller was notified or otherwise obtained knowledge of such breach, either (i) cure such breach in all material respects or (ii) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price and in the manner set forth in Section 2.02; provided that if such breach would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a “qualified mortgage” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure or repurchase must occur within 90 days from the date such breach was discovered. However, in the case of a breach under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, subject to the approval of the Company the Seller shall have the option to substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans for such Mortgage Loan if such substitution occurs within two years following the Closing Date, except that if the breach would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a “qualified mortgage” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such substitution must occur within 90 days from the date the breach was discovered if such 90 day period expires before two years following the Closing Date. In the event that the Seller elects to substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans for a Deleted Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.04, the Trustee shall enforce the obligation of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to deliver to the
Custodian as agent for the Trustee and the Master Servicer, as appropriate, with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the original Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, an Assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form, and such other documents and agreements as are required by Section 2.01, with the Mortgage Note endorsed as required by Section 2.01. No substitution will be made in any calendar month after the Determination Date for such month. Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution, to the extent received by the Master Servicer or any Subservicer, shall not be part of the Trust Fund and will be retained by the Master Servicer and remitted by the Master Servicer to the Seller on the next succeeding Distribution Date. For the month of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will include the Monthly Payment due on a Deleted Mortgage Loan for such month and thereafter the Seller shall be entitled to retain all amounts received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Company shall amend or cause to be amended the Mortgage Loan Schedule for the benefit of the Certificateholders to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and the Company shall deliver the amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Custodian as agent for the Trustee. Upon such substitution, the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects, the Seller shall be deemed to have made the representations and warranties with respect to the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan contained in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement as of the date of substitution, and the Company shall be deemed to have made with respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the date of substitution, the representations and warranties set forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (other than any statistical representations set forth therein).
In connection with the substitution of one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer will determine the amount (the “Substitution Adjustment”), if any, by which the aggregate principal balance of all such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans (in each case after application of the principal portion of the Monthly Payments due in the month of substitution that are to be distributed to Certificateholders in the month of substitution). The Trustee shall enforce the obligation of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to provide the Master Servicer on the day of substitution for immediate deposit into the Custodial Account the amount of such shortfall, without any reimbursement therefor. In accordance with the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Seller shall give notice in writing to the Trustee and the Custodian of such event, which notice shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate as to the calculation of such shortfall and by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution will not cause (a) any federal tax to be imposed on any Trust REMIC, including without limitation, any federal tax imposed on “prohibited transactions” under Section 860F(a)(1) of the Code or on “contributions after the startup date” under Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code or (b) any portion of any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding. The costs of any substitution as described above, including any related assignments, opinions or other documentation in connection therewith shall be borne by the Seller.
Except as expressly set forth herein none of the Trustee, the Custodian, the Securities Administrator or the Master Servicer is under any obligation to discover any breach of the above-mentioned representations and warranties. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller to cure such breach, purchase or to substitute for such Mortgage Loan as to which
such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to Certificateholders or the Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Seller or receipt of notice by the Seller of the breach of the representation or covenant of the Seller set forth in Section 3.1(b)(xlv) of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Holders of the Class P Certificates in any Prepayment Charge or if the Prepayment Charge is unenforceable due to subsequent changes in law, the Seller shall remedy such breach as set forth in Section 3.1(b)(xlv) of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.

(a) The Trustee acknowledges the assignment to it of the Mortgage Loans and the delivery to the Custodian as agent for the Trustee of the Mortgage Files, subject to the provisions of Sections 2.01 and 2.02, together with the assignment to it of all other assets included in the Trust Fund, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged. Concurrently with such assignment and delivery and in exchange therefor, the Trustee, pursuant to the written request of the Company executed by an officer of the Company, has executed, authenticated and delivered to or upon the order of the Company, the Certificates in authorized denominations.

The Trustee acknowledges receipt of REMIC 1 and declares that it holds and will hold the same in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of the Holders of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests and Holders of the Class R Certificates (as Holders of the Class R-1 Interest). The interests evidenced by the Class R-1 Interest, together with the REMIC 1 Regular Interests, constitute the entire beneficial ownership interest in REMIC 1.
(c) The Company, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey in trust to the Trustee without recourse all the right, title and interest of the Company in and to REMIC 1 Regular Interests (which are uncertificated) for the benefit of the Holders of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests and Holders of the Class R Certificates (as Holders of the Class R-2 Interest). The Trustee acknowledges receipt of the REMIC 2 Regular Interests (which are uncertificated) and declares that it holds and will hold the same in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of the Holders of the REMIC 2 Regular Interests and Holders of the Class R Certificates (as Holders of the Class R-2 Interest). The interests evidenced by the Class R-2 Interest, together with the REMIC 2 Regular Interests, constitute the entire beneficial ownership interest in REMIC 2.
(d) The Company, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey in trust to the Trustee without recourse all the right, title and interest of the Company in and to the REMIC 2 Regular Interests (which are uncertificated) for the benefit of the Holders of the Regular Certificates, the Class IO Interest and the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class R-3 Interest). The Trustee acknowledges receipt
of the REMIC 2 Regular Interests and declares that it holds and will hold the same in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of the Holders of the Regular Certificates, the Class IO Interest and the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class R-3 Interest). The interests evidenced by the Class R-3 Interest, together with the Regular Certificates, the Class IO Interest constitute the entire beneficial ownership interest in REMIC 3.
(e) Concurrently with (i) the assignment and delivery to the Trustee of REMIC 1 and the acceptance by the Trustee thereof, pursuant to Section 2.01, Section 2.02 and subsection (b), (ii) the assignment and delivery to the Trustee of REMIC 2 (including the Residual Interest therein represented by the Class R-2 Interest) and the acceptance by the Trustee thereof, pursuant to subsection (c), (iii) the assignment and delivery to the Trustee of REMIC 3 (including the Residual Interest therein represented by the Class R-3 Interest) and the acceptance by the Trustee thereof, pursuant to subsection (d), the Trustee, pursuant to the written request of the Company executed by an officer of the Company, has executed, authenticated and delivered to or upon the order of the Company, the Class R Certificates in authorized denominations evidencing the Class R-1 Interest, the Class R-2 Interest and the Class R-3 Interest.

|
|
Section 3.01 |

(a) The Master Servicer shall supervise, monitor and oversee the obligation of the Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement and shall have full power and authority to do any and all things which it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such master servicing and administration. In performing its obligations hereunder, the Master Servicer shall act in a manner consistent with Accepted Master Servicing Practices. Furthermore, the Master Servicer shall oversee and consult with the Servicer as necessary from time-to-time to carry out the Master Servicer’s obligations hereunder, shall receive, review and evaluate all reports, information and other data provided to the Master Servicer by the Servicer and shall cause the Servicer to perform and observe the covenants, obligations and conditions to be performed or observed by the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall independently and separately monitor the Servicer’s servicing activities with respect to each related Mortgage Loan, reconcile the results of such monitoring with such information provided in the previous sentence on a monthly basis and coordinate corrective adjustments to the Servicer’s and Master Servicer’s records, and based on such reconciled and corrected information, the Master Servicer shall provide such information to the Securities Administrator as shall be necessary in order for it to prepare the statements specified in Section 4.03, and prepare any other information and statements required to be forwarded by the Master Servicer hereunder. The Master Servicer shall reconcile the results of its Mortgage Loan monitoring with the actual remittances of the Servicer to the Custodial Account pursuant to the Servicing Agreement.
The Trustee shall furnish the Servicer and the Master Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents in form as provided to it necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer and the Master Servicer to service and administer the related Mortgage Loans and REO Property.
The Trustee shall provide access to the records and documentation in possession of the Trustee regarding the related Mortgage Loans and REO Property and the servicing thereof to the Certificateholders, the FDIC, and the supervisory agents and examiners of the FDIC, such access being afforded only upon reasonable prior written request and during normal business hours at the office of the Trustee; provided, however, that, unless otherwise required by law, the Trustee shall not be required to provide access to such records and documentation if the provision thereof would violate the legal right to privacy of any Mortgagor. The Trustee shall allow representatives of the above entities to photocopy any of the records and documentation and shall provide equipment for that purpose at a charge that covers the Trustee’s actual costs.
The Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer and the Master Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary or desirable to (i) the foreclosure or trustee’s sale with respect to a Mortgaged Property; (ii) any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Security Instrument; (iii) obtain

(b) Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer may waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor if such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is in conformity with the Accepted Servicing Practices; provided, however, that:
(A) the Master Servicer shall not make future advances (except as provided in Section 4.03);
(B) the Master Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage Rate, defer or forgive the payment of any principal or interest payments, reduce the outstanding Stated Principal Balance (except for reductions resulting from actual payments of principal) or extend the final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan (unless (i) the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Mortgage Loan or (ii) such default is, in the judgment of the Master Servicer, reasonably foreseeable); and
(C) the Master Servicer shall not consent to (i) partial releases of Mortgages, (ii) alterations, (iii) removal, demolition or division of properties subject to Mortgages, (iv) modification or (v) second mortgage subordination agreements with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would: (i) affect adversely the status of any REMIC as a REMIC, (ii) cause any REMIC to be subject to a tax on “prohibited transactions” or “contributions” pursuant to the REMIC Provisions, or (iii) both (x) effect an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under Section 1001 of the Code (or Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) and (y) cause any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or the imposition of any tax on “prohibited transactions” or “contributions” after the Startup Day under the REMIC Provisions.
The provisions of this Section 3.01(b) shall apply to the exercise of such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence rights by the Master Servicer in its capacity as such and shall not apply to the exercise of any similar rights by the Servicer, who shall instead by subject to the provisions of the Servicing Agreement.

In particular, the Trustee shall not (a) sell or permit the sale of all or any portion of the Mortgage Loans or of any investment of deposits in an Account unless such sale is as a result of a repurchase of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement or the Trustee has received a REMIC Opinion addressed to the Trustee prepared at the expense of the Trust Fund; and (b) other than with respect to a substitution pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or Section 2.04 of this Agreement, as applicable, accept any contribution to any REMIC after the Startup Day without receipt of a REMIC Opinion addressed to the Trustee.
|
|
Section 3.03 |
Monitoring of Servicer. |
(a) The Master Servicer shall be responsible for reporting to the Trustee and the Company the compliance by the Servicer with its duties under the Servicing Agreement. In the review of the Servicer’s activities, the Master Servicer may rely upon an officer’s certificate of the Servicer (or similar document signed by an officer of the Servicer) with regard to the Servicer’s compliance with the terms of its Servicing Agreement. In the event that the Master Servicer, in its judgment, determines that the Servicer should be terminated in accordance with its Servicing Agreement, or that a notice should be sent pursuant to such Servicing Agreement with respect to the occurrence of an event that, unless cured, would constitute grounds for such termination, the Master Servicer shall notify the Company and the Trustee thereof and the Master Servicer shall issue such notice or take such other action as it deems appropriate.
(b) The Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, and shall, in the event that the Servicer fails to perform its obligations in accordance with the Servicing Agreement, subject to the preceding paragraph, terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer thereunder and act as servicer of the related Mortgage Loans or to cause the Trustee to enter in to a new Servicing Agreement with a successor Servicer selected by the Master Servicer; provided, however, it is understood and acknowledged by the parties hereto that there will be a period of transition (not to exceed 90 days) before the actual servicing functions can be fully transferred to such successor Servicer. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Servicing Agreement and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Master Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, provided that the Master Servicer shall not be required to prosecute or defend any legal action except to the extent that the Master Servicer shall have received reasonable indemnity for its costs and expenses in pursuing such action.
(c) To the extent that the costs and expenses of the Master Servicer related to any termination of the Servicer, appointment of a successor Servicer or the transfer and assumption of servicing by the Master Servicer with respect to any Servicing Agreement (including, without

|
|
Section 3.05 |
Power to Act; Procedures. |
The Master Servicer shall master service the Mortgage Loans and shall have full power and authority, subject to the REMIC Provisions and the provisions of Article X hereof, to do any and all things that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the master servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans, including but not limited to the power and authority (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, (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds and Subsequent Recoveries, and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan, in each case, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, as applicable; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not (and, consistent with its responsibilities under Section 3.03, shall not permit the Servicer to) knowingly or intentionally take any action, or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action reasonably within its control and the scope of duties more specifically set forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, would cause any REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) unless the Master Servicer has received an Opinion of Counsel (but not at the expense of the Master Servicer) to the effect that the contemplated action would not cause any REMIC to fail to qualify
as a REMIC or result in the imposition of a tax upon any REMIC. The Trustee shall furnish the Master Servicer, upon written request from a Servicing Officer, with any powers of attorney empowering the Master Servicer or the Servicer to execute and deliver instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and to foreclose upon or otherwise liquidate Mortgaged Property, and to appeal, prosecute or defend in any court action relating to the Mortgage Loans or the Mortgaged Property, in accordance with the Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such other documents, as the Master Servicer may request, to enable the Master Servicer to master service and administer the Mortgage Loans and carry out its duties hereunder, in each case in accordance with Accepted Master Servicing Practices (and the Trustee shall have no liability for misuse of any such powers of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Servicer). If the Master Servicer or the Trustee has been advised that it is likely that the laws of the state in which action is to be taken prohibit such action if taken in the name of the Trustee or that the Trustee would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state if such action is taken in its name, the Master Servicer shall join with the Trustee in the appointment of a co-trustee pursuant to Section 8.10 hereof. In the performance of its duties hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be an independent contractor and shall not, except in those instances where it is taking action in the name of the Trustee, be deemed to be the agent of the Trustee.
|
|
Section 3.06 |
Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements. |
To the extent provided in the Servicing Agreement, to the extent Mortgage Loans contain enforceable due-on-sale clauses, the Master Servicer shall cause the Servicer to enforce such clauses in accordance with the Servicing Agreement. If applicable law prohibits the enforcement of a due-on-sale clause or such clause is otherwise not enforced in accordance with the Servicing Agreement, and, as a consequence, a Mortgage Loan is assumed, the original Mortgagor may be released from liability in accordance with the Servicing Agreement.
|
|
Section 3.07 |
Release of Mortgage Files. |
(a) Upon becoming aware of the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full has been escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes for payment to Certificateholders on the next Distribution Date, the Servicer will, if required under the Servicing Agreement (or if the Servicer does not, the Master Servicer may), promptly furnish to the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, two copies of a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto signed by an officer of the Servicer or in a mutually agreeable electronic format which will, in lieu of a signature on its face, originate from a Servicing Officer (which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection with such payment that are required to be deposited in the Protected Account maintained by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.16 or by the Servicer pursuant to its Servicing Agreement have been or will be so deposited) and shall request that the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, deliver to the Servicer the related Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall promptly release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer and the Trustee and Custodian shall have no further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File. Upon any such payment in full, the Servicer is authorized, to give, as agent for the Trustee, as the mortgagee under the Mortgage that secured the Mortgage Loan, an instrument of satisfaction (or assignment of mortgage without recourse)
regarding the Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage, which instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall be delivered to the Person or Persons entitled thereto against receipt therefor of such payment, it being understood and agreed that no expenses incurred in connection with such instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall be chargeable to the Protected Account.
(b) From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and in accordance with the Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall execute such documents as shall be prepared and furnished to the Trustee by the Servicer or the Master Servicer (in form reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) and as are necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings. The Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, upon the request of the Servicer or the Master Servicer, and delivery to the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, of two copies of a request for release signed by a Servicing Officer substantially in the form of Exhibit F (or in a mutually agreeable electronic format which will, in lieu of a signature on its face, originate from a Servicing Officer), release the related Mortgage File held in its possession or control to the Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable. Such trust receipt shall obligate the Servicer or the Master Servicer to return the Mortgage File to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, when the need therefor by the Servicer or the Master Servicer no longer exists unless the Mortgage Loan shall be liquidated, in which case, upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer similar to that hereinabove specified, the Mortgage File shall be released by the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, to the Servicer or the Master Servicer.
Section 3.08 Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of Master Servicer To Be Held for Trustee.
(a) The Master Servicer shall transmit and the Servicer (to the extent required by the Servicing Agreement) shall transmit to the Trustee or Custodian such documents and instruments coming into the possession of the Master Servicer or the Servicer from time to time as are required by the terms hereof, or in the case of the Servicer, the Servicing Agreement, to be delivered to the Trustee or Custodian. Any funds received by the Master Servicer or by the Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loan or which otherwise are collected by the Master Servicer or by the Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or Subsequent Recoveries in respect of any Mortgage Loan shall be held for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders subject to the Master Servicer’s right to retain or withdraw from the Custodial Account the Master Servicing Compensation and other amounts provided in this Agreement, and to the right of the Servicer to retain its Servicing Fee and other amounts as provided in the Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall, and (to the extent provided in the Servicing Agreement) shall cause the Servicer to, provide access to information and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee, its agents and accountants at any time upon reasonable request and during normal business hours, and to Certificateholders that are savings and loan associations, banks or insurance companies, the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC and the supervisory agents and examiners of such Office and Corporation or examiners of any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority if so required by applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision or other regulatory authority, such access to be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable request in writing and during normal business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer designated by it. In fulfilling such a request the Master Servicer shall not be responsible for determining the sufficiency of such information.
(b) 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, Insurance Proceeds or Subsequent Recoveries, shall be held by the Master Servicer for and on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Trustee; provided, however, that the Master Servicer and the Servicer shall be entitled to setoff against, and deduct from, any such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to the Master Servicer or the Servicer under this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement.

It is understood and agreed that such insurance shall be with insurers meeting the eligibility requirements set forth in the Servicing Agreement and that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or to be maintained on property acquired in respect of a defaulted loan, other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance.
(b) Pursuant to Section 3.16 and 3.17, any amounts collected by the Servicer or the Master Servicer, or by the Servicer, under any insurance policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the related Mortgage or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicing Agreement) shall be deposited into the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.17 and 3.18. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer or the Servicer in maintaining any such insurance if the Mortgagor defaults in its obligation to do so shall be added to the amount owing under the Mortgage Loan where the terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit; provided, however, that the addition of any such cost shall not be taken into account for purposes of calculating the distributions to be made to Certificateholders and shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer or the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.17 and 3.18.
|
|
Section 3.10 |
Presentment of Claims and Collection of Proceeds. |
The Master Servicer shall (to the extent provided in the Servicing Agreement) cause the Servicer to prepare and present on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders all claims under the Insurance Policies and take such actions (including the negotiation, settlement, compromise or enforcement of the insured’s claim) as shall be necessary to realize recovery under such policies. Any proceeds disbursed to the Master Servicer (or disbursed to the Servicer and remitted to the Master Servicer) in respect of such policies, bonds or contracts shall be promptly deposited in the Custodial Account upon receipt, except that any amounts realized that are to be applied to the repair or restoration of the related Mortgaged Property as a condition precedent to the presentation of claims on the related Mortgage Loan to the insurer under any applicable Insurance Policy need not be so deposited (or remitted).

|
Section 3.11 |
Maintenance of the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies. |
(a) The Master Servicer shall not take, or permit the Servicer (to the extent such action is prohibited under the Servicing Agreement) to take, any action that would result in noncoverage under any applicable Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Master Servicer or the Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. The Master Servicer shall use its best reasonable efforts to cause the Servicer (to the extent required under the Servicing Agreement) to keep in force and effect (to the extent that the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to maintain such insurance), primary mortgage insurance applicable to each Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, as applicable. The Master Servicer shall not, and shall not permit the Servicer (to the extent required under the Servicing Agreement) to, cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy that is in effect at the date of the initial issuance of the Mortgage Note and is required to be kept in force hereunder except in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, as applicable.
(b) The Master Servicer agrees to present, or to cause the Servicer (to the extent required under the Servicing Agreement) to present, on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies and, in this regard, to take such reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Pursuant to Section 3.16 and 3.17, any amounts collected by the Master Servicer or the Servicer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Sections 3.17 and 3.18.
Section 3.12 Trustee to Retain Possession of Certain Insurance Policies and Documents.
The Trustee (or the Custodian, as directed by the Trustee), shall retain possession and custody of the originals (to the extent available) of any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies, or certificate of insurance if applicable, and any certificates of renewal as to the foregoing as may be issued from time to time as contemplated by this Agreement. Until all amounts distributable in respect of the Certificates have been distributed in full and the Master Servicer otherwise has fulfilled its obligations under this Agreement, the Trustee (or its Custodian, if any, as directed by the Trustee) shall also retain possession and custody of each Mortgage File in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee (or the Custodian, as directed by the Trustee), upon the execution or receipt thereof the originals of any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies, any certificates of renewal, and such other documents or instruments that constitute portions of the Mortgage File that come into the possession of the Master Servicer from time to time.

The Master Servicer shall, to the extent provided in the Servicing Agreement, cause the Servicer to sell any REO Property as expeditiously as possible and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, as applicable. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall cause the Servicer to protect and conserve, such REO Property in the manner and to the extent required by the Servicing Agreement, in accordance with the REMIC Provisions and in a manner that does not result in a tax on “net income from foreclosure property” or cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code.

The amount of any remaining Subsequent Recoveries will be applied to increase the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates with the next highest payment priority, up to the amount of such Realized Losses previously allocated to that Class of Certificates, and so on. Holders of such Certificates will not be entitled to any payment in respect of Accrued Certificate Interest on the amount of such increases for any Accrual Period preceding the Distribution Date on which such increase occurs.

(h) Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be paid to the Company, as Holder thereof, and the Company shall be responsible for crediting the amount of such distribution to the accounts of its Company Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each Company Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating brokerage firm (a “brokerage firm” or “indirect participating firm”) for which it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm
shall be responsible for disbursing funds to the Certificate Owners that it represents. None of the Trustee, the Securities Administrator the Company or the Master Servicer shall have any responsibility therefor except as otherwise provided by this Agreement or applicable law.
(i) Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, if the Securities Administrator anticipates that a final distribution with respect to any Class of Certificates will be made on the next Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall, no later than two Business Days after the Determination Date in the month of such final distribution, mail on such date to each Holder of such Class of Certificates a notice to the effect that: (i) the Securities Administrator anticipates that the final distribution with respect to such Class of Certificates will be made on such Distribution Date but only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office of the Securities Administrator or as otherwise specified therein, and (ii) no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from and after the end of the prior calendar month.
(j) Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held in trust and credited to the account of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 4.01(j) shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Securities Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within six months after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Securities Administrator shall take reasonable steps as directed by the Company, or appoint an agent to take reasonable steps, to contact the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining the funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets remaining in the Trust Fund. If within nine months after the second notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Class R Certificateholders shall be entitled to all unclaimed funds and other assets which remain subject hereto. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 4.01(j).
(k) On each Distribution Date, other than the final Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall distribute to each Certificateholder of record as of the immediately preceding Record Date the Certificateholder’s pro rata share of its Class (based on the aggregate Percentage Interest represented by such Holder’s Certificates) of all amounts required to be distributed on such Distribution Date to such Class. The Securities Administrator shall calculate the amount to be distributed to each Class and, based on such amounts, the Securities Administrator shall determine the amount to be distributed to each Certificateholder. All of the Securities Administrator’s calculations of payments shall be based solely on information provided to the Securities Administrator by the Master Servicer. The Securities Administrator shall not be required to confirm, verify or recompute any such information but shall be entitled to rely conclusively on such information.

Section 4.08 |
Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund. |
(a) On the Closing Date, the Securities Administrator shall establish and maintain in its name, in trust for the benefit of the Class A Certificates and Class M Certificates, the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund.
(b) On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall transfer from the Certificate Account to the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund the amounts specified pursuant to Sections 4.01(c)(v) and 4.01(g)(5). On each Distribution Date, to the extent required, the Securities Administrator shall make withdrawals from the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund and use the amounts in the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund to make distributions to the Class A Certificates and Class M Certificates in an amount equal to the amount of any Basis Risk Shortfall Carry-Forward Amount on such Certificates. Any such amounts from the Net Monthly Excess Cashflow shall be distributed first, concurrently to the Class I-APT, Class I-A1A, Class I-A1B, Class I-A1C, Class I-A1D, Class I-A2, Class II-A1A, Class II-A1B, Class II-A1C, Class II-A1D1, Class II-A1D2 and Class II-AN Certificates, and second, sequentially to the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5, Class M-6, Class M-7, Class M-8, Class M-9 and Class M-10 Certificates, in that order, in each case until the related Basis Risk Shortfall Carry-Forward Amount has been reduced to zero. Any such amounts transferred shall be treated for federal tax purposes as amounts distributed by REMIC 3 to the Holder of the Class C Certificates. On each Distribution Date, after the distributions described in the preceding
sentence, the Securities Administrator shall withdraw from the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund (to the extent of funds available on deposit therein) any remaining amounts and distribute them to the Holders of the Class C Certificates, not in respect of any REMIC.
(c) The Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund shall be an Eligible Account. Amounts held in the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund from time to time shall continue to constitute assets of the Trust Fund, but not of the REMICs, until released from the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund pursuant to this Section 4.08. The Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund constitutes an “outside reserve fund” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.860G-2(h) and is not an asset of any REMIC. The Holders of the Class C Certificates shall be the owner of the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund. The Securities Administrator shall keep records that accurately reflect the funds on deposit in the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund. The Securities Administrator shall, at the written direction of the holder of the Majority Class C Certificateholder, invest amounts on deposit in the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund in Permitted Investments. In the absence of written direction to the Securities Administrator from the Majority Class C Certificateholder, all funds in the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund shall remain uninvested. On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall distribute, not in respect of any REMIC, any interest earned on the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund to the Holders of the Class C Certificates.
(d) For federal tax return and information reporting, the right of the Holders of the Class A Certificates and the Class M Certificates to receive payments from the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund in respect of any Basis Risk Shortfall Carry-Forward Amount may have more than a de minimis value.

The Securities Administrator shall establish an Eligible Account (“the “Swap Account”) into which the Company shall deposit $1,000 on the Closing Date. Funds on deposit in the Swap Account shall be held separate and apart from, and shall not be commingled with, any other moneys, including, without limitation, other moneys of the Trustee or of the Securities Administrator held pursuant to this Agreement.
(b) On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall deposit into the Swap Account amounts distributable to the Supplemental Interest Trust pursuant to Sections 4.01(a) (second paragraph) and 4.01(c)(vi) of this Pooling and Servicing Agreement. On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall distribute any such amounts to the Swap Provider pursuant to the Swap Agreement, first to pay any Net Swap Payment owed to the Swap Provider for such Distribution Date, and second to pay any Swap Termination Payment owed to the Swap Provider.
(c) On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall deposit into the Swap Account amounts received from the Swap Provider. On each Distribution Date, the
Securities Administrator shall distribute from the Swap Account an amount equal to the amount of any Net Swap Payment received from the Swap Provider under the Swap Agreement, in the following order of priority:
(i) first, an amount equal to the aggregate amount required under Section 4.01(g) to be distributed on such Distribution Date, to the Class A and Class M Certificateholders in accordance with Section 4.01(g) of this Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and
(ii) second, any remainder, but not in excess of the Swap Principal Payment Amount for such Distribution Date, to the Note Administrator for deposit into the Note Account in accordance with the Indenture.
(d) The Supplemental Interest Trust constitutes an “outside reserve fund” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.860G-2(h) and is not an asset of any REMIC. The Holders of the Class C Certificates shall be the beneficial owner of the Supplemental Interest Trust, subject to the power of the Securities Administrator to transfer amounts under this Agreement. The Securities Administrator shall keep records that accurately reflect the funds on deposit in the Swap Account. The Securities Administrator shall, at the written direction of the holder of the Majority Class C Certificateholder, invest amounts on deposit in the Swap Account in Permitted Investments. In the absence of written direction to the Securities Administrator from the Majority Class C Certificateholder, all funds in the Swap Account shall remain uninvested. On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall distribute, not in respect of any REMIC, any interest earned on the Swap Account within the Supplemental Interest Trust to the Holders of the Class C Certificates.
(e) For federal income tax purposes, amounts paid to the Swap Account within the Supplemental Interest Trust on each Distribution Date pursuant to Sections 4.01(a) (second paragraph) and 4.01(c)(v) shall first be deemed paid to the Supplemental Interest Trust in respect of Class IO Interest to the extent of the amount distributable on such Class IO Interest on such Distribution Date, and any remaining amount shall be deemed paid to the Supplemental Interest Trust in respect of a Class IO Distribution Amount.
(f) The Securities Administrator shall treat the Holders of Certificates (other than the Class P, Class C and Class R Certificates) as having entered into a notional principal contract with respect to the Holders of the Class C Certificates. Pursuant to each such notional principal contract, all Holders of Certificates (other than the Class P, Class C and Class R Certificates) shall be treated as having agreed to pay, on each Distribution Date, to the Holder of the Class C Certificates an aggregate amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount payable on such Distribution Date on the REMIC 3 Regular Interest ownership of which is represented by such Class of Certificates over (ii) the amount payable on such Class of Certificates on such Distribution Date (such excess, a “Class IO Distribution Amount”). A Class IO Distribution Amount payable from interest collections shall be allocated pro rata among such Certificates based on the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Certificates, and a Class IO Distribution Amount payable from principal collections shall be allocated to the most subordinate Class of such Certificates with an outstanding principal balance to the extent of such balance. In addition, pursuant to such notional principal contract, the Holder of the Class C
Certificates shall be treated as having agreed to pay Basis Risk Shortfall Carry Forward Amounts to the Holders of the Certificates (other than the Class C, Class P and Class R Certificates) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any payments to such Certificates from amounts deemed received in respect of this notional principal contract shall not be payments with respect to a Regular Interest in a REMIC within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(1). However, any payment from the Certificates (other than the Class C, Class P and Class R Certificates) of a Class IO Distribution Amount shall be treated for tax purposes as having been received by the Holders of such Certificates in respect of the REMIC 3 Regular Interest ownership of which is represented by such Certificates, and as having been paid by such Holders to the Supplemental Interest Trust pursuant to the notional principal contract. Thus, each Certificate (other than the Class P Certificates and Class R Certificates) shall be treated as representing not only ownership of a Regular Interest in REMIC 3, but also ownership of an interest in, and obligations with respect to, a notional principal contract.
(g) In the event that the Swap Agreement is terminated prior to the Distribution Date in July 2014, the Securities Administrator shall use reasonable efforts to appoint a successor swap provider using any Swap Termination Payments paid by the Swap Provider. If the Securities Administrator is unable to locate a qualified successor swap provider, any such Swap Termination Payments will be remitted to the Securities Administrator for payment to the holders of the Class A and Class M Certificates of amounts described in Section 4.09(c).

Section 4.10 |
Tax Treatment of Swap Payments and Swap Termination Payments. |
For federal income tax purposes, each holder of a Class A or Class M Certificate is deemed to own an undivided beneficial ownership interest in a REMIC regular interest and the right to receive payments from either the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund or the Supplemental Interest Trust in respect of any Basis Risk Shortfall Carry-Forward Amounts or the obligation to make payments to the Supplemental Interest Trust. For federal income tax purposes, the Securities Administrator will account for payments to each Class A and Class M Certificates as follows: each Class A and Class M Certificate will be treated as receiving their entire payment from REMIC 3 (regardless of any Swap Termination Payment or obligation under the Swap Agreement) and subsequently paying their portion of any Swap Termination Payment in respect of each such Class’ obligation under the Swap Agreement. In the event that any such Class is resecuritized in a REMIC, the obligation under the Swap Agreement to pay any such Swap Termination Payment (or any shortfall in Swap Provider Fee), will be made by one or more of the REMIC Regular Interests issued by the resecuritization REMIC subsequent to such REMIC Regular Interest receiving its full payment from any such Class A or Class M Certificate. Resecuritization of any Class A or Class M Certificate in a REMIC will be permissible only if the Securities Administrator hereunder is the trustee/securities administrator in such resecuritization. For Federal Income tax purposes, the Swap Account is deemed to have a value of $0.
The REMIC regular interest corresponding to a Class A or Class M Certificate will be entitled to receive interest and principal payments at the times and in the amounts equal to those made on the certificate to which it corresponds, except that (i) the maximum interest rate of that REMIC regular interest will equal the Net WAC Rate computed for this purpose by limiting the Notional Amount of the Swap Agreement to the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage
Loans and (ii) any Swap Termination Payment will be treated as being payable solely from Net Monthly Excess Cashflow. As a result of the foregoing, the amount of distributions and taxable income on the REMIC regular interest corresponding to a Class A or Class M Certificate may exceed the actual amount of distributions on the Class A or Class M Certificate.

Section 4.11 |
Class II-A1D2 Policy Matters. |
(a) If, on the third Business Day before any Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator determines that the Available Funds for such Distribution Date distributable to the Holders of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates pursuant to Section 4.01 will be insufficient to pay the Guaranteed Distributions on such Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall determine the amount of any such deficiency and shall give notice to the Certificate Insurer and the Fiscal Agent (as defined in the Class II-A1D2 Policy), if any, by telephone, electronic mail or telecopy of the amount of such deficiency, confirmed in writing by notice substantially in the form of Exhibit A to the Class II-A1D2 Policy by 12:00 noon, New York City time on such third Business Day.
(b) The Securities Administrator shall establish, for the benefit of Holders of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates and the Certificate Insurer, a segregated non-interest bearing trust account (the “Policy Payments Account”) over which the Securities Administrator shall have exclusive control and sole right of withdrawal. The Securities Administrator shall deposit any amount paid under the Class II-A1D2 Policy in the Policy Payments Account and distribute such amount only for purposes of payment to Holders of Class II-A1D2 Certificates of the Guaranteed Distributions or any amount in respect of a Preference Claim (as defined in the Class II-A1D2 Policy) for which a claim under the Class II-A1D2 Policy was made, and such amount may not be applied to satisfy any costs, expenses or liabilities of any Servicer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee or the Trust Fund. Amounts paid under the Class II-A1D2 Certificate Insurance Policy shall be transferred to the Certificate Account in accordance with the next succeeding paragraph and disbursed by the Securities Administrator to Holders of Class II-A1D2 Certificates in accordance with this Section 4.11(b) (or, in the case of an amount in respect of a Preference Claim, to the related Holders of Class II-A1D2 Certificates as contemplated in this Section 4.11(b)). It shall not be necessary for such payments to be made by checks or wire transfers separate from the checks or wire transfers used to pay the other distributions to be made to such Holders pursuant to Section 4.01. However, the amount of any payment of principal of or interest on the Class II-A1D2 Certificates to be paid from funds transferred from the Policy Payments Account shall be noted as provided in Section 4.11(c) and in the statement to be furnished to Holders of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates pursuant to Section 4.02. Funds held in the Policy Payments Account shall not be invested.
(c) The Securities Administrator shall promptly notify the Certificate Insurer and its fiscal agent of any proceeding or the institution of any action, of which a Responsible Officer of the Securities Administrator has actual knowledge, seeking the avoidance as a preferential transfer under applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law (a “Preference Claim”) of any Guaranteed Distributions made with respect to the Class II-A1D2 Certificates. Each Holder of the Certificates, by its purchase of such Certificates, the Servicers, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Depositor and the Trustee hereby agree that the Certificate Insurer (so long as no Certificate Insurer Default has occurred and is continuing) may
at any time during the continuation of any proceeding relating to a Preference Claim direct all matters relating to such Preference Claim, including, without limitation, (i) the direction of any appeal of any order relating to such Preference Claim and (ii) the posting of any surety, supersedeas or performance bond pending any such appeal. In addition and without limitation of the foregoing, the Certificate Insurer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Servicers, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee and each Holder of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates in the conduct of any such Preference Claim, including, without limitation, all rights of any party to an adversary proceeding action with respect to any court order issued in connection with any such Preference Claim. Any funds remaining in the Policy Payments Account on the first Business Day following a Distribution Date shall be remitted to the Certificate Insurer, pursuant to the instructions of the Certificate Insurer, by the end of such Business Day.
(d) On any Distribution Date with respect to which a claim has been made under the Class II-A1D2 Policy, the amount of any funds received by the Securities Administrator as a result of any claim under the Class II-A1D2 Policy, to the extent required to pay the Guaranteed Distributions on such Distribution Date, shall be withdrawn from the Policy Payments Account and deposited in the Certificate Account and applied by the Securities Administrator directly to the payment in full of the Guaranteed Distributions due on the Class II-A1D2 Certificates. Any funds received from the Certificate Insurer pursuant to the Class II-A1D2 Policy in respect of a Distribution Date or otherwise as a result of any claim under the Class II-A1D2 Policy shall be applied by the Securities Administrator directly to the payment in full (i) of the Guaranteed Distribution due on such Distribution Date on the Class II-A1D2 Certificates, or (ii) of other amounts payable under the Class II-A1D2 Policy. Funds received by the Trustee or the Securities Administrator as a result of any claim under the Class II-A1D2 Policy shall be used solely for payment to the Holders of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates and may not be applied for any other purpose, including, without limitation, satisfaction of any costs, expenses or liabilities of the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Trust Fund.
(e) The Securities Administrator shall keep complete and accurate records in respect of (i) all funds remitted to it by the Certificate Insurer and (ii) the allocation of such funds to (A) payments of interest on and principal in respect of any Class II-A1D2 Certificates, (B) Realized Losses allocated to the Class II-A1D2 Certificates and (C) the amount of funds available to make distributions on the Class II-A1D2 Certificates pursuant to Section 4.01. The Certificate Insurer shall have the right to inspect such records at reasonable times during normal business hours upon three Business Days’ prior notice to the Securities Administrator.
(f) The Trustee and the Securities Administrator each acknowledge, and each Holder of a Class II-A1D2 Certificate by its acceptance of the Class II-A1D2 Certificate agrees, that, without the need for any further action on the part of the Certificate Insurer or the Trustee, to the extent the Certificate Insurer makes payments, directly or indirectly, on account of principal of or interest on any Class II-A1D2 Certificates, the Certificate Insurer will be fully subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Class II-A1D2 Certificates to receive such principal and interest from the Trust Fund. The Holders of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates, by acceptance of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates, assign their rights as Holders of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates to the extent of the Certificate Insurer’s interest with respect to amounts paid under the Class II-A1D2 Policy. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, solely for purposes of determining the
Certificate Insurer’s rights, as applicable, as subrogee for payments distributable pursuant to Section 4.01, any payment with respect to distributions to the Class II-A1D2 Certificates which is made with funds received pursuant to the terms of the Class II-A1D2 Policy, shall not be considered payment of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates from the Trust Fund and shall not result in the distribution or the provision for the distribution in reduction of the Class Certificate Balance of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates within the meaning of Article IV.
(g) Upon its becoming aware of the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Securities Administrator shall promptly notify the Certificate Insurer of such Event of Default. The Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator shall cooperate in all respects with any reasonable request by the Certificate Insurer for action to preserve or enforce the Certificate Insurer’s rights or interests under this Agreement without limiting the rights or affecting the interests of the Holders as otherwise set forth herein.
(h) The Securities Administrator shall promptly notify the Certificate Insurer of either of the following as to which it has actual knowledge: (A) the commencement of any proceeding by or against the Depositor commenced under the United States bankruptcy code or any other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, rehabilitation or similar law (an “Insolvency Proceeding”) and (B) the making of any claim in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding seeking the avoidance as a preferential transfer (a “Preference Claim”) of any distribution made with respect to the Class II-A1D2 Certificates as to which it has actual knowledge. In addition and without limitation of the foregoing, the Certificate Insurer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and each Holder of a Class II-A1D2 Certificate in the conduct of any Preference Claim, including, without limitation, all rights of any party to an adversary proceeding action with respect to any court order issued in connection with any such Preference Claim.
(i) The Master Servicer shall designate a contact person who shall be available within a reasonable period of time to the Certificate Insurer to provide reasonable access to information regarding the Mortgage Loans.
(j) The Trustee shall surrender the Class II-A1D2 Policy to the Certificate Insurer for cancellation upon the reduction of the Class Certificate Balance of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates to zero.
(k) The Securities Administrator shall send to the Certificate Insurer the reports prepared pursuant to Sections 3.21 and 3.22 and the statements prepared pursuant to Section 4.02, as well as any other statements or communications sent to Holders of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates, in each case at the same time such reports, statements and communications are otherwise sent.
(l) For so long as there is no continuing default by the Certificate Insurer under its obligations under the Class II-A1D2 Policy (a “Certificate Insurer Default”), each Holder of a Class II-A1D2 Certificate agrees that the Certificate Insurer shall be treated by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee as if the Certificate Insurer were the Holder of all of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates for the purpose (and solely for the purpose) of
the giving of any consent, the making of any direction or the exercise of any voting or other control rights otherwise given to the Holders of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates hereunder.
(m) With respect to this Section 4.11, (i) the terms “Receipt” and “Received” shall mean actual delivery to the Certificate Insurer and the Fiscal Agent, if any, if any, prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on a Business Day; delivery either on a day that is not a Business Day or after 12:00 noon, New York City time, shall be deemed to be Received on the next succeeding Business Day. If any notice or certificate given under the Class II-A1D2 Policy by the Securities Administrator is not in proper form or is not properly completed, executed or delivered, or contains any misstatement, it shall be deemed not to have been Received. The Certificate Insurer or its Fiscal Agent, if any, shall promptly so advise the Securities Administrator and the Securities Administrator may submit an amended notice and (ii) “Business Day” means any day other than (A) a Saturday or Sunday or (B) a day on which the Certificate Insurer or banking institutions in the City of New York, New York, or the city in which the Corporate Trust Office of the Securities Administrator is located, are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to be closed.
(n) Under the terms of the Class II-A1D2 Policy, Guaranteed Distributions will not include, and the Class II-A1D2 Policy will not cover interest shortfalls due to any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls, Relief Act Interest Shortfalls, Basis Risk Shortfalls or any taxes, withholding or other charges imposed by any governmental authority.
(o) The Trustee designates, appoints, authorizes and directs the Securities Administrator to deliver on behalf of the Trustee the notices in accordance with Section 4.11(a) and Section 11.11(a) and to make, on behalf of and with full power to bind the Trustee, any of the agreements or covenants of the Trustee contained therein. To the extent necessary, this Agreement shall constitute an irrevocable limited power of attorney, coupled with an interest, from the Trustee to the Securities Administrator, to accomplish the foregoing.

Section 4.12 |
Trustee to Hold the Class II-A1D2 Policy. |
The Trustee shall hold the Class II-A1D2 Policy in trust as agent for the Holders of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates for the purpose of making claims thereon and distributing the proceeds thereof. Upon the later of (a) the date upon which the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class II-A1D2 Certificates has been reduced to zero and all Guaranteed Distributions have been paid and (b) the date the “Term of This Policy” (as defined in the Class II-A1D2 Policy) ends, the Trustee shall surrender the Class II-A1D2 Policy to the Certificate Insurer for cancellation. Neither the Class II-A1D2 Policy nor the amounts paid on the Class II-A1D2 Policy will constitute part of the Trust Fund or assets of any Trust REMIC created by this Agreement. Each Holder of Class II-A1D2 Certificates, by accepting its Certificates, appoints the Securities Administrator as attorney in fact for the purpose of making claims under the Class II-A1D2 Policy.
ARTICLE V
THE CERTIFICATES
|
|
Section 5.01 |
The Certificates. |
(a) The Certificates will be substantially in the respective forms annexed hereto as Exhibits A and B-1 through B-4. The Certificates will be issuable in registered form only. The Certificates (other than the Class P Certificates, the Class C Certificates and the Residual Certificates) will be issued in minimum denominations of $100,000 Initial Certificate Principal Balance and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The Class C Certificates will be issued in minimum denominations of $1.00 Initial Notional Amount and integral multiples of $1.00 in excess thereof. The Class P Certificates and the Residual Certificates will each be issuable in minimum denominations of any Percentage Interest representing 20.00% and multiples of 0.01% in excess thereof.
Upon original issue, the Certificates shall, upon the written request of the Company executed by an officer of the Company, be executed and delivered by the Securities Administrator, authenticated by the Securities Administrator and delivered to or upon the order of the Company upon receipt by the Securities Administrator of the documents specified in Section 2.01. The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Securities Administrator by a Responsible Officer. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at the time they signed the proper officers of the Securities Administrator shall bind the Securities Administrator, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of such Certificates. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Securities Administrator by manual signature, and such certificate upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates issued on the Closing Date shall be dated the Closing Date and any Certificates delivered thereafter shall be dated the date of their authentication.
(b) The Class A Certificates and the Class M Certificates shall initially be issued as one or more Certificates registered in the name of the Company or its nominee and, except as provided below, registration of such Certificates may not be transferred by the Securities Administrator except to another Company that agrees to hold such Certificates for the respective Certificate Owners with Ownership Interests therein. The Certificate Owners shall hold their respective Ownership Interests in and to each of such Book-Entry Certificates through the book-entry facilities of the Company and, except as provided below, shall not be entitled to Definitive Certificates in respect of such Ownership Interests. All transfers by Certificate Owners of their respective Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry Certificates shall be made in accordance with the procedures established by the Company Participant or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owner. Each Company Participant shall transfer the Ownership Interests only in the Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the Company’s normal procedures. The
Securities Administrator shall not be required to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with the transfer restrictions with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates, and the Securities Administrator shall have no liability for transfers of Ownership Interests in the Book Entry Certificates made through the book-entry facilities of the Depositary or between or among Depositary Participants or Certificate Owners, made in violation of the applicable restrictions.
The Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Company may for all purposes (including the making of payments due on the respective Classes of Book-Entry Certificates) deal with the Company as the authorized representative of the Certificate Owners with respect to the respective Classes of Book-Entry Certificates for the purposes of exercising the rights of Certificateholders hereunder. The rights of Certificate Owners with respect to the respective Classes of Book-Entry Certificates shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Company Participants and brokerage firms representing such Certificate Owners. Multiple requests and directions from, and votes of, the Company as Holder of any Class of Book-Entry Certificates with respect to any particular matter shall not be deemed inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners. The Securities Administrator may establish a reasonable record date in connection with solicitations of consents from or voting by Certificateholders and shall give notice to the Company of such record date.
If (i)(A) the Company advises the Securities Administrator in writing that the Company is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as Company and (B) the Company is unable to locate a qualified successor or (ii) the Company, with the consent of Certificate Owners, advises the Securities Administrator in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Company, the Securities Administrator shall notify all Certificate Owners, through the Company, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Securities Administrator of the Book-Entry Certificates by the Company, accompanied by registration instructions from the Company for registration of transfer, the Securities Administrator shall, at the expense of the Company, issue the Definitive Certificates. Neither the Company, the Master Servicer nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable for any actions taken by the Company or its nominee, including, without limitation, any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Master Servicer shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.
(c) Each Certificate is intended to be a “security” governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York and any other applicable jurisdiction, to the extent that any of such laws may be applicable.

Section 5.02 |
Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates. |
(a) The Securities Administrator shall maintain a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Securities Administrator shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided.
(b) Except as provided in Section 5.02(c), no transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of a Class M-10, Class P, Class C or Residual Certificate shall be made unless such transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with said Act and laws. In the event that a transfer of a Class M-10, Class P, Class C or Residual Certificate is to be made under this Section 5.02(b), (i) the Securities Administrator shall require an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Securities Administrator that such transfer shall be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from said Act and laws or is being made pursuant to said Act and laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Company or the Master Servicer, provided that such Opinion of Counsel will not be required in connection with the initial transfer of any such Certificate by the Company or any affiliate thereof, to a non-affiliate of the Company and (ii) the Securities Administrator shall require the transferee to execute a representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 hereto, and the Securities Administrator shall require the transferor to execute a representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 hereto, each acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Securities Administrator certifying to the Company and the Securities Administrator the facts surrounding such transfer, which representation letters shall not be an expense of the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Company or the Master Servicer; provided, however, that such representation letters will not be required in connection with any transfer of any such Certificate by the Company to an affiliate of the Company and the Securities Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon a representation (which, upon the request of the Securities Administrator, shall be a written representation) from the Company of the status of such transferee as an affiliate of the Company. Any such Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Company 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 applicable federal and state laws.
(c) Notwithstanding the requirements of Section 5.02(b), transfers of Class M-10, Class P, Class C and Residual Certificates may be made in accordance with this Section 5.02(c) if the prospective transferee of a Certificate provides the Securities Administrator and the Company with an investment letter substantially in the form of Exhibit G-3 attached hereto, which investment letter shall not be an expense of the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Company or the Master Servicer, and which investment letter states that, among other things, such transferee is a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined under Rule 144A, provided that, in the case of any Book-Entry Certificate, such transferee shall be deemed to have made such representations and warranties contained in such investment letter. Such transfers shall be deemed to have complied with the requirements of Section 5.02(b) hereof; provided, however, that no Transfer of any of the Class P Certificates, Class C Certificates or Residual Certificates may be made pursuant to this Section 5.02(c) by the Company. Any such Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Company 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 applicable federal and state laws.
The Securities Administrator shall require an Opinion of Counsel, on which the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Company and the Master Servicer may rely, from a prospective transferee prior to the transfer of any ERISA Restricted Certificate to any employee benefit plan or other retirement arrangement, including an individual retirement account or Xxxxx plan, that is subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), or Section 4975 of the Code (any of the foregoing, a “Plan”), to a trustee or other Person acting on behalf of any Plan, or to any other person who is using “plan assets” of any Plan to effect such acquisition (including any insurance company using funds in its general or separate accounts that may constitute “plan assets”). Such Opinion of Counsel must establish to the satisfaction of the Securities Administrator that such transfer is permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or result in a prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and will not subject the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Company to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement. None of the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee will be required to obtain such Opinion of Counsel on behalf of any prospective transferee. A purchaser of an ERISA Restricted Certificate shall be deemed to represent to the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Company that it is not a Plan or using assets of a Plan if it does not provide such an Opinion of Counsel.
For so long as the Supplemental Interest Trust is in existence, each beneficial owner of an Offered Certificate or any interest therein shall be deemed to have represented, by virtue of its acquisition or holding of the Offered Certificate, or interest therein, that either (i) it is not a Plan or a trustee or other Person acting on behalf of a Plan or using “plan assets” of a Plan to effect such acquisition (including any insurance company using funds in its general or separate accounts that may constitute “plan assets”) or (ii)(A) in the case of an Offered Certificate rated, at the time of purchase, not lower than BBB- (or its equivalent) by a Rating Agency, the beneficial owner is an accredited investor within the meaning of Prohibited Transaction Exemption 2002-41, as amended from time to time (the “Exemption”) and (B) the acquisition and holding of such Certificate and the separate right to receive payments from the Supplemental Interest Trust are eligible for the exemptive relief available under Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 84-14 (for transactions by independent “qualified professional asset managers”), 91-38 (for transactions by bank collective investment funds), 90-1 (for transactions by insurance company pooled separate accounts), 95-60 (for transactions by insurance company general accounts) or 96-23 (for transactions effected by “in-house asset managers”).
Each beneficial owner of a Class M Certificate or any interest therein that is acquired after the termination of the Supplemental Interest Trust shall be deemed to have represented, by virtue of its acquisition or holding of that certificate or interest therein, that either (i) it is not a Plan or a trustee or other Person acting on behalf of a Plan or using “plan assets” of a Plan to effect such acquisition (including any insurance company using funds in its general or separate accounts that may constitute “plan assets”), (ii) in the case of Certificates other than the Class M-10 Certificates, it has acquired and is holding such certificate in reliance on the “Exemption, and that it understands that there are certain conditions to the availability of the Exemption, including that the certificate must be rated, at the time of purchase, not lower than “BBB-” (or its equivalent) by S&P, Fitch or Xxxxx’x, and the certificate is so rated or (iii) (1) it is an insurance company, (2) the source of funds used to acquire or hold the certificate or interest therein is an “insurance company general account,” as such term is defined in PTCE 95-60, and (3) the
conditions in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied. In lieu of such a representation, a beneficial owner of a Class M-10 Certificate may provide the Opinion of Counsel in the immediately preceding paragraph.
If any Certificate, or any interest therein, is acquired or held in violation of this section 5.02(c), the next preceding permitted beneficial owner will be treated as the beneficial owner of that Certificate, retroactive to the date of transfer to the purported beneficial owner. Any purported beneficial owner whose acquisition or holding of a Certificate, or interest therein, was effected in violation of this section shall indemnify to the extent permitted by law and hold harmless the Company, the Seller, the Master Servicer, any servicer, the Securities Administrator, any Underwriter and the Trustee from and against any and all liabilities, claims, costs or expenses incurred by such parties as a result of such acquisition or holding.

[Reserved] |
(e) (i) Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and to have irrevocably authorized the Trustee or its designee under clause (iii)(A) below to deliver payments to a Person other than such Person and to negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause (iii)(B) below and to execute all instruments of transfer and to do all other things necessary in connection with any such sale. The rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:
|
|
(A) |
Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly notify the Securities Administrator of any change or impending change in its status as a Permitted Transferee. |
|
|
(B) |
In connection with any proposed Transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, the Securities Administrator shall require delivery to it, and shall not register the Transfer of any Residual Certificate until its receipt of (I) an affidavit and agreement (a “Transfer Affidavit and Agreement” in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G-5) from the proposed Transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Securities Administrator representing and warranting, among other things, that it is a Permitted Transferee, that it is not acquiring its Ownership Interest in the Residual Certificate that is the subject of the proposed Transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee, that for so long as it retains its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a Permitted Transferee, and that it has reviewed the provisions of this Section 5.02 and agrees to be bound by them, and (II) a certificate, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G-4, from the Holder wishing to transfer the Residual Certificate, in form and substance satisfactory to the Securities Administrator representing and warranting, among other things, that no purpose of the proposed Transfer is to impede the assessment or collection of tax. |
|
|
(C) |
Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement by a proposed Transferee under clause (B) above, if a Responsible Officer of the Securities Administrator assigned to this transaction has actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to such proposed Transferee shall be effected. |

(D) |
Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall agree (x) to require a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement from any other Person to whom such Person attempts to transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate and (y) not to transfer its Ownership Interest unless it provides a certificate to the Securities Administrator in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G-4. |
|
|
(E) |
Each Person holding or acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, by purchasing an Ownership Interest in such Certificate, agrees to give the Securities Administrator written notice that it is a “pass-through interest holder” within the meaning of Temporary Treasury Regulations Section 1.67-3T(a)(2)(i)(A) immediately upon acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, if it is “a pass-through interest holder”, or is holding an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate on behalf of a “pass-through interest holder.” |
(ii) The Securities Administrator will register the Transfer of any Residual Certificate only if it shall have received the Transfer Affidavit and Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G-5, a certificate of the Holder requesting such transfer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G-4 and all of such other documents as shall have been reasonably required by the Securities Administrator as a condition to such registration. Transfers of the Residual Certificates other than to Permitted Transferees are prohibited.
(iii) (A) If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate, then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such Transfer of such Residual Certificate. If a Non-United States Person shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate, then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such Transfer of such Residual Certificate. If a transfer of a Residual Certificate is disregarded pursuant to the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1 or Section 1.860G-3, then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such transfer of such Residual Certificate. The prior Holder shall be entitled to recover from any purported Holder of a Residual Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted Transferee under this Section 5.05(b) at the time it became a Holder all payments made on such Residual Certificate. Each Holder of a Residual Certificate, by acceptance thereof, shall be deemed for all purposes to have consented to the provisions of this clause (b) and to any amendment of this Agreement deemed necessary (whether as
a result of new legislation or otherwise) by counsel of the Company to ensure that the Residual Certificates are not transferred to any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee and that any transfer of such Residual Certificates will not cause the imposition of a tax upon the Trust or cause any such REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC. The Securities Administrator shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 5.02 or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement.
(B) If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section 5.02 and to the extent that the retroactive restoration of the rights of the Holder of such Residual Certificate as described in clause (iii)(A) above shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the Securities Administrator shall have the right, without notice to the Holder or any prior Holder of such Residual Certificate, to sell such Residual Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Securities Administrator on such terms as the Securities Administrator may choose. Such purported Transferee shall promptly endorse and deliver each Residual Certificate in accordance with the instructions of the Securities Administrator. Such purchaser may be the Securities Administrator itself. The proceeds of such sale, net of the commissions (which may include commissions payable to the Securities Administrator), expenses and taxes due, if any, will be remitted by the Securities Administrator to such purported Transferee. The terms and conditions of any sale under this clause (iii)(B) shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Securities Administrator, and the Securities Administrator shall not be liable to any Person having an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate as a result of its exercise of such discretion.
(iv) The Securities Administrator shall make available to the Internal Revenue Service and those Persons specified by the REMIC Provisions, all information necessary to compute any tax imposed (A) as a result of the transfer of an ownership interest in a Residual Certificate to any Person who is a Disqualified Organization, including the information regarding “excess inclusions” of such Residual Certificates required to be provided to the Internal Revenue Service and certain Persons as described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860D-1(b)(5) and 1.860E-2(a)(5), and (B) as a result of any regulated investment company, real estate investment trust, common trust fund, partnership, trust, estate or organization described in Section 1381 of the Code that holds an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate having as among its record Holders at any time any Person who is a Disqualified Organization. The Securities Administrator may charge and shall be entitled to reasonable compensation for providing such information as may be required from those Persons which may have had a tax imposed upon them as specified in clauses (A) and (B) of this paragraph for providing such information.
(v) Subject to the preceding paragraphs, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at the office of the Securities Administrator maintained for
such purpose, the Securities Administrator shall execute and the Securities Administrator shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of the same Class of a like aggregate Percentage Interest. Every Certificate surrendered for transfer shall be accompanied by notification of the account of the designated transferee or transferees for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 4.01 by wire transfer, if any such transferee desires and is eligible for distribution by wire transfer.
(vi) At the option of the Certificateholders, Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates of authorized denominations of the same Class of a like aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at the office of the Securities Administrator. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange the Securities Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Trustee) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in the form satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. In addition, with respect to each Class R Certificate, the Holder thereof may exchange, in the manner described above, such Class R Certificate for three separate Certificates, each representing such Holder’s respective Percentage Interest in the Class R-1, Class R-2 and Class R-3 Interest, respectively, in each case that was evidenced by the Class R Certificate being exchanged.
(vii) No service charge shall be made to the Certificateholders for any transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Securities Administrator may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
(viii) All Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be canceled and retained by the Securities Administrator in accordance with the Securities Administrator’s standard procedures.

|
Section 5.03 |
Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. |
If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Securities Administrator and the Securities Administrator receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered to the Securities Administrator such security or indemnity as may be required by it to save it harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Securities Administrator that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Securities Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of the same Class and Percentage Interest. Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 5.03, the Securities Administrator may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Securities Administrator) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of
ownership in the Trust Fund, 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 Company, the Master Servicer, Securities Administrator the Trustee and any agent of any of them may treat the person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 4.01 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Company, the Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
|
|
Section 5.05 |
Rule 144A Information. |
For so long as any Class M-10, Class P, Class C and Residual Certificates are outstanding and are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) of the Securities Act, (1) the Company will provide or cause to be provided to any Holder of such Certificates and any prospective purchaser thereof designated by such a Holder, upon the request of such Holder or prospective purchaser, the information required to be provided to such Holder or prospective purchaser by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act; and (2) the Company shall update such information from time to time in order to prevent such information from becoming false and misleading and will take such other actions as are necessary to ensure that the safe harbor exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under Rule 144A is and will be available for resales of such Certificates conducted in accordance with Rule 144A. The Master Servicer shall cooperate with the Company and furnish the Company such information in the Master Servicer’s possession as the Company may reasonably request.

Section 6.01 |
Liability of the Company and the Master Servicer. |
The Company and the Master Servicer each shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed upon and undertaken by the Company and the Master Servicer herein.

Any Person into which the Company or the Master Servicer may be merged, consolidated or converted, or any corporation resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Company or the Master Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Company or the Master Servicer, shall be the successor of the Company or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person to the Master Servicer or an affiliate thereof shall be qualified to service mortgage loans for Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac.
Section 6.03 Limitation on Liability of the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and Others.
Neither the Company, the Master Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Company or the Master Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Company or the Master Servicer (but this provision shall protect the above described persons) against any breach of warranties or representations made herein, or against any specific liability imposed on the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.01 or any other Section hereof; and provided further that this provision shall not protect the Company, the Master Servicer or any such person, against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. The Company, the Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or the Master Servicer may
rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Company, the Custodian, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, the Custodian, the Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust Fund (with respect to the Master Servicer, Custodian and Securities Administrator, in the aggregate up to a limit of $500,000 per calendar year), against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Custodial Agreement or the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and disbursements of counsel), other than (a) any loss, liability or expense related to the Master Servicer’s failure to perform its master servicing obligations with respect to any specific Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) or related to the Master Servicer’s obligations under Section 3.01, or to the Custodian’s failure to perform its duties under the Custodial Agreement, respectively, or (b) 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 Company, the Master Servicer, the Custodian or the Securities Administrator shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its respective duties under this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Company, the Master Servicer, the Custodian or the Securities Administrator may in its sole discretion undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom (except any action or liability related to the Master Servicer’s obligations under Section 3.01) shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Fund, and the Company, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Certificate Account as provided in Section 3.18, any such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Certificate Account.

The Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except (a) upon appointment of a successor master servicer reasonably acceptable to the Trustee upon receipt by the Trustee of a letter from each Rating Agency (obtained by the Master Servicer and at its expense) that such a resignation and appointment will not, in and of itself, result in a downgrading of the Certificates (without regard to the Class II-A1D2 Policy) or (b) upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law. Any such determination described in (b) above permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the resigning Master Servicer) to such effect delivered to the Trustee. No such resignation shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor servicer shall have assumed the Master Servicer’s responsibilities, duties, liabilities and obligations hereunder. Any resignation of the Master Servicer shall result in the automatic resignation of the Securities Administrator.

ARTICLE VII
DEFAULT
|
|
Section 7.01 |
Events of Default. |
“Event of Default”, wherever used herein, means any one of the following events:
(i) any failure by the Master Servicer to deposit into the Certificate Account on each Certificate Account Deposit Date the amounts required to be deposited therein (other than an Advance) under the terms of this Agreement which continues unremedied for one (1) Business Day after such amount was required to be remitted; or
(ii) any failure on the part of the Master Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Master Servicer contained in the Certificates or in this Agreement (including any breach of the Master Servicer’s representations and warranties pursuant to Section 2.03(a) which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders) which continues unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee or to the Master Servicer and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights; or
(iii) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling 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 conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Master Servicer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; 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 otherwise voluntarily commence a case or proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or
(vi) the Master Servicer shall fail to deposit in the Certificate Account on any Certificate Account Deposit Date an amount equal to any required Advance which continues unremedied for a period of one (1) Business Day after the Business Day immediately preceding the related Distribution Date.
If an Event of Default described in clauses (i) - (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 or the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer (and to the Trustee if given by such Holders of Certificates), with a copy to the Rating Agencies, may terminate all of the rights and obligations (but not the liabilities) of the Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Trust Fund, other than its rights as a Certificateholder hereunder; provided, however, that the successor to the Master Servicer appointed pursuant to Section 7.02 shall have accepted the duties of Master Servicer effective upon the resignation or termination of the Master Servicer. On or after the receipt by the Master Servicer of such notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (other than as a Holder thereof) or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under this Section, and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered 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 at the expense of the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer agrees to cooperate with (and pay any related costs and expenses of) the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Trustee or the successor Master Servicer for administration by it of (i) the property and amounts which are then or should be part of the Trust Fund or which thereafter become part of the Trust Fund; (ii) originals or copies of all documents of the Master Servicer reasonably requested by the Trustee to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s duties thereunder; (iii) the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under the Subservicing Agreement with respect to the Mortgage Loans; and (iv) all cash amounts which shall at the time be deposited by the Master Servicer or should have been deposited to the Custodial or the Certificate Account or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans. The Trustee shall not be deemed to have breached any obligation hereunder as a result of a failure to make or delay in making any distribution as and when required hereunder caused by the failure of the Master Servicer to remit any amounts received by it or to deliver any documents held by it with respect to the Mortgage Loans. For purposes of this Section 7.01, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of an Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless notice of any event which is in fact such an Event of Default is received by the Trustee as provided in Section 11.05 and such notice references the Certificates, the Trust Fund or this Agreement.
|
|
Section 7.02 |
Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor. |
Within 90 days of the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of termination pursuant to Section 7.01(i) - (vi), the Trustee or its appointed agent shall be the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity as Master Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject thereafter to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Master Servicer including the obligation to make Advances which have been or will be required to be made (except for the responsibilities, duties and liabilities contained in Section 2.03 and its obligations to deposit amounts in respect of losses pursuant to 4.01(i)) by the terms and provisions hereof; and provided further, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Master Servicer’s failure to
provide information required by Section 4.03 shall not be considered a default by the Trustee hereunder. As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans which the Master Servicer would have been entitled to charge to the Custodial Account and the Certificate Account if the Master Servicer had continued to act hereunder. If the Trustee has become the successor to the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 6.04 or Section 7.02, then notwithstanding the above, if the Trustee shall be unwilling to so act, or shall be unable to so act, the Trustee may appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established housing and home finance institution, which is also a Xxxxxx Mae- or Xxxxxxx Mac-approved mortgage servicing institution, having a net worth of not less than $10,000,000 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. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer hereunder, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as herein above 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 that permitted the Master Servicer hereunder. Each of the Company, the Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. In no event shall the successor Master Servicer be liable for the acts or omissions of the predecessor Master Servicer.
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, in which case the predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Master Servicer in causing MERS to revise its records to reflect the transfer of servicing to the successor Master Servicer as necessary under MERS’ rules and regulations, or (ii) the predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Master Servicer in causing MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the Trustee and to execute and deliver such other notices, documents and other instruments as may be necessary or desirable to effect a transfer of such Mortgage Loan or servicing of such Mortgage Loan on the MERS® System to the successor Master Servicer. The predecessor Master Servicer shall file or cause to be filed any such assignment in the appropriate recording office. The predecessor Master Servicer shall bear any and all fees of MERS, costs of preparing any assignments of Mortgage, and fees and costs of filing any assignments of Mortgage that may be required under this Section 7.02. 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.
Any successor, including the Trustee, to the Master Servicer shall maintain in force during its term as master servicer hereunder policies and fidelity bonds to the same extent as the Master Servicer is so required pursuant to Section 3.18.
|
|
Section 7.03 |
Notification to Certificateholders. |
(a) Upon any such termination or appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall give prompt notice thereof to Certificateholders and to the Rating Agencies.
(b) Within 60 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Certificates notice of each such Event of Default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived.
|
|
Section 7.04 |
Waiver of Events of Default. |
The Holders representing at least 51% of the Voting Rights of Certificates affected by a default or Event of Default hereunder, may waive such default or Event of Default (other than an Event of Default set forth in Section 7.01(vi)); provided, however, that (a) a default or Event of Default under clause (i) of Section 7.01 may be waived only by all of the Holders of Certificates affected by such default or Event of Default and (b) no waiver pursuant to this Section 7.04 shall affect the Holders of Certificates in the manner set forth in the second paragraph of Section 11.01 or materially adversely affect any non-consenting Certificateholder. Upon any such waiver of a default or Event of Default by the Holders representing the requisite percentage of Voting Rights of Certificates affected by such default or Event of Default, such default or Event of Default shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived. The Master Servicer shall give notice of any such waiver to the Rating Agencies.
|
|
Section 7.05 |
List of Certificateholders. |
Upon written request of three or more Certificateholders of record, for purposes of communicating with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Agreement, the Securities Administrator will afford such Certificateholders access during business hours to the most recent list of Certificateholders held by the Securities Administrator.

Section 8.01 |
Duties of Trustee and the Securities Administrator. |
The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiver of all Events of Default which may have occurred, and the Securities Administrator each undertake to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement as duties of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator, respectively. If an Event of Default occurs, is continuing and has not been waived, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. Any permissive right of the Trustee enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty.
The Trustee and the Securities Administrator, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator, respectively, shall examine them in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement. If any such instrument is found not to conform to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, shall take such action as it deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected, and if the instrument is not corrected to the Trustee’s or the Securities Administrator’s, as applicable, satisfaction, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, will provide notice thereof to the Certificateholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be responsible for the accuracy or content of any resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument furnished by the Master Servicer hereunder or any Opinion of Counsel required hereunder.
The Securities Administrator shall prepare and file or cause to be filed on behalf of the Trust Fund any tax return that is required with respect to any Trust REMIC pursuant to applicable federal, state or local tax laws.
The Securities Administrator covenants and agrees that it shall perform its obligations hereunder in a manner so as to maintain the status of any Trust REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and to prevent the imposition of any federal, state or local income, prohibited transaction, contribution or other tax on any of any Trust REMIC to the extent that maintaining such status and avoiding such taxes are within the control of the Securities Administrator and are reasonably within the scope of its duties under this Agreement.
No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee or the Securities Administrator from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct; provided, however, that:
(i) The duties and obligations of the Trustee prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, and after the curing or waiver of all such Events of Default which may have occurred and of the Securities Administrator, at all times, shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement. Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall 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 or the Securities Administrator and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement;
(ii) Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee or of the Securities Administrator, as applicable, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee or Securities Administrator, respectively, was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and
(iii) Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, under this Agreement.

Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee and the Securities Administrator. |
Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:

The Securities Administrator shall not take any action, cause the Trust Fund to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of any Trust REMIC as REMICs or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon the REMICs (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such event, an “Adverse REMIC Event”) unless the Securities Administrator has received an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Securities Administrator (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action but in no event at the expense of the Securities Administrator) to the effect that the contemplated action will not, with respect to the REMICs created hereunder, endanger such status or result in the imposition of such a tax, nor shall the Master Servicer take or fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the Securities Administrator has advised it in writing that each has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such action. In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to the REMICs or the assets of the REMICs, or causing the REMICs to take any action, which is not contemplated under the terms of this Agreement, the
Master Servicer will consult with the Securities Administrator or its designee, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to the Trust Fund, and the Master Servicer shall not take any such action or cause the Trust Fund to take any such action as to which the Securities Administrator has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur. The Securities Administrator may consult with counsel to make such written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne by the party seeking to take the action not permitted by this Agreement, but in no event shall such cost be an expense of the Securities Administrator. At all times as may be required by the Code, the Securities Administrator will ensure that substantially all of the assets of the REMICs created hereunder will consist of “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.
(g) In the event that any tax is imposed on “prohibited transactions” of the REMICs created hereunder as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the “net income from foreclosure property” of the REMICs as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, on any contributions to the REMICs after the Startup Day therefor pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed by the Code or any applicable provisions of state or local tax laws, such tax shall be charged (i) to the Securities Administrator pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Securities Administrator of any of its obligations under this Article X, (ii) to the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Master Servicer of any of its obligations under Article III or this Article X, or otherwise, (iii) to the Master Servicer as provided in Section 3.05, if applicable, (iv) to the Class R Certificateholder to the extent of any funds distributed to such Certificateholder, (v) otherwise against amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account and shall be paid by withdrawal therefrom to the extent not required to be paid by the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Class R Certificateholder pursuant to another provision of this Agreement.
(h) On or before April 15 of each calendar year, commencing April 15, 2006, the Securities Administrator shall deliver to the Master Servicer and the Rating Agency a Certificate from a Responsible Officer of the Securities Administrator stating the Securities Administrator’s compliance with its obligations under this Article X.
(i) The Securities Administrator shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and records with respect to the REMICs on a calendar year and on an accrual basis.
(j) Following the Startup Day, the Securities Administrator shall not accept any contributions of assets to the REMICs other than in connection with any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan delivered in accordance with Section 2.04 unless it shall have received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in the REMICs will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as REMICs at any time that any Certificates are outstanding or subject any Trust REMIC to any tax under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal, state and local law or ordinances.
(k) Neither the Securities Administrator nor the Master Servicer shall enter into any arrangement by which the REMICs will receive a fee or other compensation for services nor permit the REMICs to receive any income from assets other than “qualified mortgages” as
defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.
(l) The Securities Administrator shall treat the rights of the Certificateholders (other than the Class P Certificateholders and Residual Certificateholders) to receive payments from the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund as a notional principal contract between the Holders of the Class C Certificates, as owner of the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund and the Holders of the Class A Certificates and Class M Certificates). For federal tax return and information reporting, the right of the Holders of the Class A and Class M Certificates to receive payments from the Basis Risk Shortfall Reserve Fund in respect of any Basis Risk Carry-Forward Amount may be obtained from the Securities Administrator upon request.

Section 10.03 |
Master Servicer, Securities Administrator and Trustee Indemnification. |
(a) The Securities Administrator agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the Company and the Master Servicer for any taxes and costs including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees imposed on or incurred by the Trust Fund, the Company or the Master Servicer, as a result of (i) a breach of the Securities Administrator’s covenants set forth in this Article X or (ii) any state, local or franchise taxes imposed upon the Trust Fund as a result of the location of the Securities Administrator.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (the Distribution Date”), commencing as described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the last Business Day of the month immediately preceding the month of such Distribution Date (the “Record Date”), from the Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount of interest and principal, if any, required to be distributed to Holders of Class [_]-A-[_][_] Certificates on such Distribution Date.
Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Securities Administrator either in immediately available funds (by wire transfer or otherwise) for the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Securities Administrator and the Trustee at least 5 Business Days prior to the related Record Date, or by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates issued in several Classes designated as Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively called the “Certificates”).
The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master Servicer funds are advanced with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is reimbursable to the Master Servicer, to the extent provided in the Agreement, from related recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have been distributable to Certificateholders.
As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial Account and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of Certificateholders may be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such
purposes including without limitation reimbursement to the Trustee, the Company and the Master Servicer of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, by either of them.
No transfer of this Certificate to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any person using Plan Assets to acquire this Certificate shall be made until the termination of the Supplemental Interest Trust unless an opinion of counsel is provided.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66-2/3% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof in certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable with the Securities Administrator upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies maintained by the Securities Administrator, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in Classes and 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 authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and 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 Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer and the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificates and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the purchase by the Servicer or its designee or the Master Servicer from the Trust Fund of all remaining Mortgage Loans and each REO Property in respect thereof remaining in the Trust Fund, thereby effecting early retirement of the Certificates and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation (or any Advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund (or the disposition of all REO Property in respect thereof). The Agreement permits, but does not require, the Servicer, or, if the Servicer does not exercise this right the Master Servicer to purchase at a price determined as provided in the Agreement all remaining Mortgage Loans and all REO Property; provided, that any such option may only be exercised on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate unpaid balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than or equal to ten percent of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date with respect to a purchase by the Servicer, or on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than or equal to five percent of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date with respect to a purchase by the Master Servicer.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Securities Administrator, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

Neither this Certificate nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental agency or instrumentality or by Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Seller, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee or any of their affiliates. None of Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Seller, the Securities Administrator or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the Certificates.
This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate (obtained by dividing the Initial Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate by the aggregate Initial Certificate Principal Balance of all Class M-__ Certificates, both as specified above) in certain distributions with respect to the Trust Fund consisting primarily of an interest in a pool of one- to four-family fixed-rate and adjustable-rate first lien and second lien mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), sold by Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation (hereinafter called the “Company,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement referred to below).

evidencing percentage interest in the distributions allocable to the Class C Certificates with respect to a Trust Fund consisting primarily of a pool of one- to four- family fixed-rate and adjustable-rate first lien and seond lien mortgage loans formed and sold by OPTEUM MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION
This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust Fund, and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Seller, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee referred to below or any of their affiliates. Neither this Certificate nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental agency or instrumentality or by Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Seller, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee or any of their affiliates. None of Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Seller, the Securities Administrator or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the Certificates.
This certifies that ___________________ is the registered owner of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate (obtained by dividing the Original Class C Certificate by the Original Class Certificate Principal Balance) in certain distributions with respect to the Trust Fund consisting primarily of an interest in a pool of one- to four-family fixed-rate and adjustable-rate first lien and second lien mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), sold by Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation (hereinafter called the “Company,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement referred to below). The Trust Fund was created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as specified above (the “Agreement”) among the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and HSBC
Bank USA, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Class C Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (the Distribution Date”), commencing as described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the last Business Day of the month immediately preceding the month of such Distribution Date (the “Record Date”), from the Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount of interest and principal, if any , required to be distributed to Holders of Class C Certificates on such Distribution Date.
Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Securities Administrator either in immediately available funds (by wire transfer or otherwise) for the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Securities Administrator and the Trustee at least 5 Business Days prior to the related Record Date, or by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register.
Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Securities Administrator for that purpose in the City of Minneapolis and State of Minnesota.
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates issued in several Classes designated as Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively called the “Certificates”).

As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial Account and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of Certificateholders may be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including without limitation reimbursement to the Trustee, the Company and the Master Servicer of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, by either of them.
No transfer of a Certificate of this Class 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 said 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 and the Company in writing the facts surrounding the transfer. In the event that such a transfer is not to be made pursuant to Rule 144A of the act, there shall be delivered to the Trustee and the Company of an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be obtained at the expense of the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Company; or there shall be delivered to the Trustee and the Company a transferor certificate by the transferor and an investment letter shall be executed by the transferee. The Holder hereof desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee and the Company against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.
No transfer of this Certificate to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any person using Plan Assets to acquire this Certificate shall be made except in accordance with Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66-2/3% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof in certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable with the Securities Administrator upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies maintained by the Securities Administrator, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in Classes and 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 authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and 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 Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer and the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificates and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the purchase by the Servicer or its designee or the Master Servicer from the Trust Fund of all remaining Mortgage Loans and each REO Property in respect thereof remaining in the Trust Fund, thereby effecting early retirement of the Certificates and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation (or any Advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund (or the disposition of all REO Property in respect thereof). The Agreement permits, but does not require, the Servicer, or, of the Servicer does not exercise this right, the Master Servicer to purchase at a price determined as provided in the Agreement all remaining Mortgage Loans and all REO Property; provided, that any such option may only be exercised on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate unpaid balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than or equal to ten percent of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date with respect to a purchase by the Servicer, or on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than or equal to five percent of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date with respect to a purchase by the Master Servicer.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Securities Administrator, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Securities Administrator has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.

evidencing a percentage interest in any distributions allocable to the Class P Certificates with respect to the Trust Fund consisting primarily of a pool of one- to four-family fixed-rate and adjustable-rate first lien and second lien mortgage loans sold by OPTEUM MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION
This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust Fund, and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Seller, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee referred to below or any of their affiliates. Neither this Certificate nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental agency or instrumentality or by Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Seller, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee or any of their affiliates. None of Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Seller, the Securities Administrator or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the Certificates.
This certifies that ___________________ is the registered owner of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Class P Certificate (obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Class P Certificate by the Original Class Certificate Principal Balance) in certain distributions with respect to the Trust Fund consisting primarily of an interest in a pool of one- to four-family fixed-rate and adjustable-rate first lien and second lien mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), sold by Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation (hereinafter called the “Company,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement referred to below). The Trust Fund was created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as specified above (the “Agreement”) among the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), a summary of certain of the
pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (the Distribution Date”), commencing as described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the last Business Day of the month immediately preceding the month of such Distribution Date (the “Record Date”), from the Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount of interest and principal, if any , required to be distributed to Holders of Class P Certificates on such Distribution Date.
Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Securities Administrator either in immediately available funds (by wire transfer or otherwise) for the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Securities Administrator and the Trustee at least 5 Business Days prior to the related Record Date, or by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register.
Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Securities Administrator for that purpose in the City of Minneapolis and State of Minnesota. The Initial Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate is set forth above. The Certificate Principal Balance hereof will be reduced to the extent of distributions allocable to principal. This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates issued in several Classes designated as Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively called the “Certificates”).
The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master Servicer funds are advanced with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is reimbursable to the Master Servicer, to the extent provided in the Agreement, from related recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have been distributable to Certificateholders.
As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial Account and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of Certificateholders may be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including without limitation reimbursement to the Trustee, the Company and the Master Servicer of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, by either of them.
No transfer of a Certificate of this Class 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 said 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 and the Company in writing the facts surrounding the transfer. In the event that such a transfer is not to be made pursuant to Rule 144A of the Act, there shall be delivered to the Trustee and the Company of an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be obtained at the expense of the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Company; or there shall be delivered to the Trustee and the Company a transferor certificate by the transferor and an investment letter shall be executed by the transferee. The Holder hereof desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee and the Company against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.
No transfer of this Certificate to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any person using Plan Assets to acquire this Certificate shall be made except in accordance with Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Company, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66-2/3% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof in certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable with the Securities Administrator upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies maintained by the Securities Administrator, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in Classes and 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 authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and 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 Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer and the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificates and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the purchase by the Servicer or its designee or the Master Servicer from the Trust Fund of all remaining Mortgage Loans and each REO Property in respect thereof remaining in the Trust Fund, thereby effecting early retirement of the Certificates and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation (or any Advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund (or the disposition of all REO Property in respect thereof). The Agreement permits, but does not require, the Servicer, or, if the Servicer does not exercise this right, the Master Servicer to purchase at a price determined as provided in the Agreement all remaining Mortgage Loans and all REO Property; provided, that any such option may only be exercised on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate unpaid balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than or equal to ten percent of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date with respect to a purchase by the Servicer, or on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than or equal to five percent of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date with respect to a purchase by the Master Servicer.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Securities Administrator, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Securities Administrator has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.

evidencing a percentage interest in any distributions allocable to the Class R Certificates with respect to the Trust Fund consisting primarily of a pool of one- to four-family fixed-rate and adjustable-rate first lien mortgage loans sold by OPTEUM MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION
This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust Fund, and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Seller, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee referred to below or any of their affiliates. Neither this Certificate nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental agency or instrumentality or by Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Seller, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee or any of their affiliates. None of Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Seller, the Securities Administrator or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the Certificates.
This certifies that ___________________ is the registered owner of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate in certain distributions with respect to the Trust Fund consisting primarily of an interest in a pool of one- to four-family fixed-rate and adjustable-rate
first lien mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), sold by Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation (hereinafter called the “Company,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement referred to below). The Trust Fund was created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as specified above (the “Agreement”) among the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (the Distribution Date”), commencing as described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the last Business Day of the month immediately preceding the month of such Distribution Date (the “Record Date”), from the Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount of interest and principal, if any , required to be distributed to Holders of Class R Certificates on such Distribution Date.
Each Holder of this Certificate will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by the restrictions set forth in the Agreement to the effect that (i) each person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in this Certificate must be a United States Person and a Permitted Transferee, (ii) the transfer of any Ownership Interest in this Certificate will be conditioned upon the delivery to the Trustee of, among other things, an affidavit to the effect that it is a United States Person and Permitted Transferee, (iii) any attempted or purported transfer of any Ownership Interest in this Certificate in violation of such restrictions will be absolutely null and void and will vest no rights in the purported transferee, and (iv) if any person other than a United States Person and a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in this Certificate in violation of such restrictions, then the Company will have the right, in its sole discretion and without notice to the Holder of this Certificate, to sell this Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Company, which purchaser may be the Company, or any affiliate of the Company, on such terms and conditions as the Company may choose.
Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Securities Administrator for that purpose in the City of Minneapolis and State of Minnesota.
In connection with any transfer of this Certificate, the Trustee will also require either (i) an opinion of counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee with respect to the permissibility of such transfer under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) and Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and stating, among other things, that the transferee’s acquisition of a Class R Certificate will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or (ii) a representation letter, in the form as described by the Agreement, stating that the transferee is not an employee benefit or other plan subject to the
prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (a “Plan”), or any other person (including an investment manager, a named fiduciary or a trustee of any Plan) acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of or purchasing any Certificate with “plan assets” of any Plan.
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates issued in several Classes designated as Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively called the “Certificates”).
The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master Servicer funds are advanced with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is reimbursable to the Master Servicer, to the extent provided in the Agreement, from related recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have been distributable to Certificateholders.
As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial Account and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of Certificateholders may be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including without limitation reimbursement to the Trustee, the Company and the Master Servicer of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, by either of them.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66-2/3% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof in certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable with the Securities Administrator upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies maintained by the Securities Administrator, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in Classes and 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
authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and 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 Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer and the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificates and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the purchase by the Servicer or its designee or the Master Servicer from the Trust Fund of all remaining Mortgage Loans and each REO Property in respect thereof remaining in the Trust Fund, thereby effecting early retirement of the Certificates and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation (or any Advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund (or the disposition of all REO Property in respect thereof). The Agreement permits, but does not require, the Servicer, or, if the Servicer does not exercise this right, or the Master Servicer to purchase at a price determined as provided in the Agreement all remaining Mortgage Loans and all REO Property; provided, that any such option may only be exercised on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate unpaid balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than or equal to ten percent of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date with respect to a purchase by the Servicer, or on or after the first Distribution Date on which the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than or equal to five percent of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date with respect to a purchase by the Master Servicer.
Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Certificate set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purpose have the same effect as if set forth at this place.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Securities Administrator, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Securities Administrator has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.

The Seller has at the time of the transfer conducted a reasonable investigation of the financial condition of the Purchaser as contemplated by Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i) and, as a result of that investigation, the Seller has determined that the Purchaser has historically paid its debts as they have become due and has found no significant evidence to indicate that the Purchaser will not continue to pay its debts as they become due in the future. The Seller understands that the transfer of the Certificates may not be respected for United States income tax purposes (and the Seller may continue to be liable
for United States income taxes associated therewith) unless the Seller has conducted such an investigation.

2. That the Owner (i) is not and will not be a “disqualified organization” as of _____________ [date of transfer] within the meaning of Section 860E(e)(5) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), (ii) will endeavor to remain other than a disqualified organization for so long as it retains its ownership interest in the Class R Certificates, and (iii) is acquiring the Class R Certificates for its own account or for the account of another Owner from which it has received an affidavit and agreement in substantially the same form as this affidavit and agreement. (For this purpose, a “disqualified organization” means the United States, any state or political subdivision thereof, any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other than an instrumentality all of the activities of which are subject to tax and, except for Xxxxxxx Mac, a majority of whose board of directors is not selected by any such governmental entity) or any foreign government, international organization or any agency or instrumentality of such foreign government or organization, any rural electric or telephone cooperative, or any organization (other than certain farmers’ cooperatives) that is generally exempt from federal income tax unless such organization is subject to the tax on unrelated business taxable income).
3. That the Owner is aware (i) of the tax that would be imposed on transfers of Class R Certificates to disqualified organizations under the Code, that applies to all transfers of Class R Certificates after March 31, 1988; (ii) that such tax would be on the transferor, or, if such transfer is through an agent (which person includes a broker, nominee or middleman) for a disqualified organization, on the agent; (iii) that the person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability for the tax if the transferee furnishes to such person an affidavit that the transferee is not a disqualified organization and, at the time of transfer, such person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is false; and (iv) that the Class R Certificates may be “noneconomic residual interests” within the meaning of Treasury regulations promulgated pursuant to the Code and that the transferor of a noneconomic residual interest will remain liable for any taxes due
with respect to the income on such residual interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer was to impede the assessment or collection of tax.
4. That the Owner is aware of the tax imposed on a “pass-through entity” holding Class R Certificates if at any time during the taxable year of the pass-through entity a disqualified organization is the record holder of an interest in such entity. (For this purpose, a “pass through entity” includes a regulated investment company, a real estate investment trust or common trust fund, a partnership, trust or estate, and certain cooperatives.)
5. That the Owner is aware that the Trustee will not register the transfer of any Class R Certificates unless the transferee, or the transferee’s agent, delivers to it an affidavit and agreement, among other things, in substantially the same form as this affidavit and agreement.

6. That the Owner has reviewed the restrictions set forth on the face of the Class R Certificates and the provisions of Section 5.02(f) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement under which the Class R Certificates were issued (in particular, clause (iii)(A) and (iii)(B) of Section 5.02(f) which authorize the Trustee to deliver payments to a person other than the Owner and negotiate a mandatory sale by the Trustee in the event the Owner holds such Certificates in violation of Section 5.02(f)). The Owner expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with such restrictions and provisions.
7. That the Owner consents to any additional restrictions or arrangements that shall be deemed necessary upon advice of counsel to constitute a reasonable arrangement to ensure that the Class R Certificates will only be owned, directly or indirectly, by an Owner that is not a disqualified organization.

10. That no purpose of the Owner relating to the transfer of any of the Class R Certificates by the Owner is or will be to impede the assessment or collection of any tax.
11. That the Owner has no present knowledge or expectation that it will be unable to pay any United States taxes owed by it so long as any of the Certificates remain outstanding. In this regard, the Owner hereby represents to and for the benefit of the person from whom it acquired the Class R Certificate that the Owner intends to pay taxes associated with holding such Class R Certificate as they become due, fully understanding that it may incur tax liabilities in excess of any cash flows generated by the Class R Certificate.
12. That the Owner has no present knowledge or expectation that it will become insolvent or subject to a bankruptcy proceeding for so long as any of the Class R Certificates remain outstanding.
13. The Owner is a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized in, or under the laws of, the United States or any political subdivision thereof, provided that with respect to any partnership or other entity treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes, all persons that own an interest in such partnership either directly or through any entity that is not a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes are required by the applicable operative agreement to be United States Persons, or an estate or trust whose income from sources without the United States is includible in gross income for United States federal income tax purposes regardless of its connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States.
14. (a) The Certificates (i) are not being acquired by, and will not be transferred to, any employee benefit plan within the meaning of section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) or other retirement arrangement, including individual retirement accounts and annuities, Xxxxx plans and bank collective investment funds and insurance company general or separate accounts in which such plans, accounts or arrangements are invested, that is subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) (any of the foregoing, a “Plan”), (ii) are not being acquired with “plan assets” of a Plan within the meaning of the Department of Labor (“DOL”) regulation, 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101 or otherwise under ERISA, and (iii) will not be transferred to any entity that is deemed to be investing in plan assets within the meaning of the DOL regulation, 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101 or otherwise under ERISA; or
(b) The Owner will provide the Trustee with an opinion of counsel, as specified in Section 5.02(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee to the effect that the purchase of Certificates is permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or result in any non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Trustee, the Company, the Securities Administrator or the Master Servicer to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
In addition, the Owner hereby certifies, represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Company, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Master Servicer that the Owner will not transfer such Certificates to any Plan or person unless either such Plan or person meets the requirements set forth in either (a) or (b) above.

ARTICLE I.
DEFINITIONS
The following terms are defined as follows (except as otherwise agreed in writing by the parties):
Accepted Servicing Practices: With respect to any Securitized Loan, those mortgage servicing practices that prudent mortgage lending institutions would employ in servicing their own portfolio of mortgage loans of the same type as the Securitized Loans in the jurisdiction where the related Mortgaged Property is located, giving due consideration to customary and usual standards of practice of mortgage lenders and loan servicers administering similar mortgage loans.
Adjustable Rate Securitized Loan: A Securitized Loan under which the Mortgage Interest Rate is adjusted from time to time in accordance with the terms and provisions of the related Mortgage Note.
Adverse REMIC Event: Taking (or causing to be taken) any action, or failure to take (or failure to cause to be taken) any action, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of such REMIC as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon such REMIC (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on prohibited contributions set forth on Section 860G(d) of the Code).
Advancing Person: As defined in Section 4.03 hereof.
Agreement: This Servicing Agreement and all amendments hereof and supplements hereto.
Ancillary Income: All income derived from the Securitized Loans (other than the (i) Servicing Fee or (ii) Prepayment Charges or Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts attributable to the Securitized Loans), including but not limited to late charges, penalty interest, any interest paid on funds deposited in the Custodial Account and Escrow Account (other than interest on escrowed funds required by law to be paid to the Mortgagor), fees received with respect to checks or bank drafts returned by the related bank for non-sufficient funds, assumption fees, modification fees, optional insurance administrative fees and all other incidental fees and charges.
Assignment of Mortgage: An assignment of a Mortgage, notice of transfer or equivalent instrument in recordable form, sufficient under the laws of the jurisdiction wherein the related Mortgaged Property is located to reflect the transfer of such Mortgage to the party indicated therein, which assignment, notice of transfer or equivalent instrument may be in the form of one or more blanket assignments covering the Securitized Loans secured by Mortgaged Properties located in the same jurisdiction, if permitted by law.
Balloon Securitized Loan: Any Securitized Loan that by its original terms or by virtue of any modification provides for an amortization schedule extending beyond its originally
scheduled Maturity Date and which has a final scheduled payment that is proportionately large in comparison to other scheduled payments.
Balloon Payment: The final scheduled payment in respect of a Balloon Securitized Loan.
Business Day: Any day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday or (ii) a day on which banking and savings and loan institutions in the States of New York, Maryland, Minnesota and, with respect to any Trust, the jurisdiction in which the related Trustee conducts its trust business, are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to be closed.
Certificates: Any or all of the certificates or other securities issued pursuant to a Trust Agreement.
Certificate Registrar: The registrar appointed pursuant to the Trust Agreement.
Closing Date: The actual date of closing of any Pass-Through Transfer, without regard to the Effective Date thereof.
Code: The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as it may be amended from time to time or any successor statute thereto, and applicable U.S. Department of the Treasury regulations issued pursuant thereto.
Condemnation Proceeds: All awards of settlements in respect of a Mortgaged Property, whether permanent or temporary, partial or entire, by exercise of the power of eminent domain or condemnation, to the extent not required to be released to a Mortgagor in accordance with the terms of the related Securitized Loan documents.
Conventional Loan: A conventional residential first or second lien fixed or adjustable rate Securitized Loan that is neither FHA insured nor VA guaranteed.
Costs: For any Person, any claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and other costs and expenses of such Person.
Credit Risk Manager: With respect to Securitized Loans covered by a Trust Agreement, any credit risk manager or loss mitigation advisor under such Trust Agreement.
Custodial Account: The account created and maintained by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.03.
Custodial Agreement: With respect to Securitized Loans covered by a Trust Agreement, the custodial agreement relating to custody of such Securitized Loans between a Custodian and the related Trustee, as acknowledged by the Servicer, dated as of the related Effective Date.
Custodian: A custodian of Securitized Loans under any Custodial Agreement.
Delinquent: For reporting purposes, a Securitized Loan is “delinquent” when any payment contractually due thereon has not been made by the close of business on the Due Date
therefor. Such Securitized Loan is “30 days Delinquent” if such payment has not been received by the close of business on the corresponding day of the month immediately succeeding the month in which such payment was first due, or, if there is not such corresponding day (e.g., as when a 30-day month follows a 31-day month in which a payment was due on the 31st day of such month), then on the last day of such immediately succeeding month. Similarly for “60 days Delinquent” and the second immediately succeeding month and “90 days Delinquent” and the third immediately succeeding month.
Determination Date: With respect to each Remittance Date, the 15th day of the month in which such Remittance Date occurs, or, if such 15th day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day.
Depositor: With respect to Securitized Loans covered by a Trust Agreement , the Person to which the Seller transfers Mortgage Loans, or any successor in interest to such Person, which Person in turn transfers such Mortgage Loans to a Trustee in a Pass-Through Transfer.
Distressed Securitized Loan: As of any Effective Date, any related Securitized Loan that was Delinquent in payment for a period of 90 days or more as of the first calendar day of the month in which such Effective Date occurs, without giving effect to any grace period permitted by the related Mortgage Note or for which the Servicer has accepted a deed in lieu of foreclosure. No Securitized Loan shall be considered delinquent for the purpose of this definition by virtue of the related Mortgagor having made payment to the prior servicer.
Due Date: The day of the calendar month on which the Monthly Payment is due on a Securitized Loan, exclusive of any days of grace. With respect to the Securitized Loans for which payment from the Mortgagor is due on a day other than the first day of the calendar month, such Securitized Loans will be treated as if the Monthly Payment is due on the first day of the immediately succeeding month.
Due Period: With respect to each Remittance Date, the period commencing on the second day of the month immediately preceding the month of the Remittance Date and ending on the first day of the month of the Remittance Date.
Effective Date: The effective date of any Pass-Through Transfer as set forth in the Transfer Notice.

SERVICING OF THE SECURITIZED LOANS
|
|
Section 3.01 |
Servicer to Service. |
The Servicer, as an independent contractor, shall service and administer the Securitized Loans from and after the Closing Date and shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which the Servicer may deem necessary or desirable, consistent with the terms of this Agreement and with Accepted Servicing Practices. The Servicer may designate the sub-servicer to perform the obligations hereunder, provided that such designation shall not relieve the Servicer of such obligations.
The Seller and the Servicer additionally agree as follows:
(a) The Servicer shall (A) record or cause to be recorded the Mortgage or the Assignment of Mortgage, as applicable, with respect to all MERS Eligible Securitized Loans, in the name of MERS, or shall ascertain that such have previously been so recorded; (B) prepare or cause to be prepared all Assignments of Mortgage with respect to all Non-MERS Eligible Securitized Loans; (C) prepare for recording or cause to be recorded, subject to Section 2.03(b) hereof, all Assignments of Mortgage with respect to Non-MERS Securitized Loans in the name of the related Trust; (D) pay the recording costs pursuant to Section 2.03 hereof; and/or (E) track such Mortgages and Assignments of Mortgage to ensure they have been recorded. The Servicer shall be entitled to be paid by the Seller its out-of-pocket costs for the preparation and recordation of the Mortgages and Assignments of Mortgage. After the expenses of such recording costs pursuant to Section 2.03 hereof shall have been paid by the Servicer, the Servicer shall submit to the Seller a reasonably detailed invoice for reimbursement of recording costs it incurred hereunder.
(b) If applicable, the Servicer shall, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxxxxx National Affordable Housing Act of 1990, as the same may be amended from time to time, and the regulations provided in accordance with the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, provide notice to the Mortgagor of each Securitized Loan of the transfer of the servicing thereto to the Servicer.
(c) The Servicer shall be responsible for the preparation of and costs associated with notifications to Mortgagors of the assumption of servicing by the Servicer.
Consistent with the terms of this Agreement and except as provided in Section 3.15 hereof, the Servicer may waive any late payment charge, assumption fee or other fee (other than a Prepayment Charge) that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing the Securitized Loans. The Servicer shall not make any future advances to any Mortgagor under any Securitized Loan, and (unless the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Securitized Loan or such default is, in the judgment of the Servicer, reasonably foreseeable) the Servicer shall not permit any modification of any material term of any Securitized Loan, including any modification that would change the Mortgage Interest Rate, defer or forgive the payment of principal or interest, reduce or increase the outstanding principal balance (except for actual payments of principal) or change the final maturity date on such Securitized Loan. The NIMs Insurer’s prior written
consent shall be required for any modification, waiver or amendment if the aggregate number of outstanding Securitized Loans which have been modified, waived or amended exceeds 5% of the number of Securitized Loans in the related Trust as of the Effective Date. In the event of any such modification which permits the deferral of interest or principal payments on any Securitized Loan, the Servicer shall, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Remittance Date in any month in which any such principal or interest payment has been deferred, make a Monthly Advance in accordance with Section 4.03, in an amount equal to the difference between (a) such month’s principal and one month’s interest at the Securitized Loan Remittance Rate on the unpaid principal balance of such Securitized Loan and (b) the amount paid by the Mortgagor. The Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for such advances to the same extent as for all other advances made pursuant to Section 4.03. The Servicer may permit modifications to a Securitized Loan, with the consent of the NIMs Insurer, which are authorized by the express terms of either an allonge to the related Mortgage Note or an addendum to the related Mortgage in existence as of the Effective Date. If Home Star wishes to make a modification to a Securitized Loan which is not permitted under this Section 3.01, then Home Star must repurchase such Securitized Loan from the related Trust on the terms and conditions provided in the Trust Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall continue, and is hereby authorized and empowered, to execute and deliver on behalf of itself and the related Trust, all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release, discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Securitized Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties. Upon the written request of the Servicer, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer, within the later of fifteen days from the Closing Date or within fifteen days of such Servicer request, any powers of attorney (one for each county in which any of the Mortgaged Properties are located) and other documents, furnished to it by the Servicer and reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer (a) shall not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage Interest Rate and (b) shall not (unless the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Mortgage Loan or such default is, in the judgment of the Servicer, reasonably foreseeable) make or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would both (i) effect an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under Section 1001 of the Code (or Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) and (ii) cause the Trust Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or the imposition of any tax on “prohibited transactions” or “contributions” after the startup date under the REMIC Provisions.
Prior to taking any action with respect to the Mortgage Loans which is not contemplated under the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer will obtain an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the NIMs Insurer and the Trustee or the Master Servicer on its behalf with respect to whether such action could result in the imposition of a tax upon the REMIC (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such event, an “Adverse REMIC Event”), and the Servicer shall not take any such action or cause the Trust Fund to take any such action as to which it has been advised that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur.
The Servicer shall not permit the creation of any “interests” (within the meaning of Section 860G of the Code) in the REMIC. The Servicer shall not enter into any arrangement by which the REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services nor permit the REMIC to receive any income from assets other than “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.
|
|
Section 3.02 |
Collection of Securitized Loan Payments. |
Continuously from the Closing Date until the date each Securitized Loan ceases to be subject to this Agreement, the Servicer shall proceed diligently to collect all payments due under each of the Securitized Loans when the same shall become due and payable and shall take special care in ascertaining and estimating Escrow Payments and all other charges that will become due and payable with respect to the Securitized Loans and each related Mortgaged Property, to the end that the installments payable by the Mortgagors will be sufficient to pay such charges as and when they become due and payable.
|
|
Section 3.03 |
Establishment of and Deposits to Custodial Account. |
(a) The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to the Securitized Loans separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain for each related Trust a Custodial Account, in the form of a time deposit or demand account, titled “Home Star Mortgage Services, LLC in trust for [Name of Trust].” The Custodial Account shall be established with a Qualified Depository. Any funds deposited in the Custodial Account may be invested in Eligible Investments subject to the provisions of Section 3.11 hereof. Funds deposited in the Custodial Account may be drawn on by the Servicer in accordance with Section 3.04 hereof.

(v) all Insurance Proceeds (other than any amounts immediately applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or immediately released to the Mortgagor);
(vi) all Condemnation Proceeds that are not applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor;
(vii) any Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount required to be paid by the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.04;

|
|
(xiii) |
any amounts received by it under any PMI Policy; and |
(xiv) any other amount required hereunder to be deposited by the Servicer in the Custodial Account.
Notwithstanding the foregoing clause (viii), no Monthly Advances or Servicing Advances shall be required to be made by the Servicer if such Monthly Advance or Servicing Advance would, if made, be, in the Servicer’s reasonable judgment, nonrecoverable. The determination by the Servicer that it has made a nonrecoverable Monthly Advance or Servicing Advance, or that any proposed Monthly Advance or Servicing Advance would be a nonrecoverable advance, shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer delivered to the Master Servicer and the NIMs Insurer.
The foregoing requirements for deposit into the Custodial Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of (i) late payment charges, penalty interest and insufficient fund charges, (ii) assumption and modification fees, (iii) other Ancillary Income and (iv) the Servicing Fee need not be deposited by the Servicer into the Custodial Account.
Any interest paid on funds deposited in the Custodial Account by the depository institution shall accrue to the benefit of the Servicer as additional servicing compensation and the Servicer shall be entitled to retain and withdraw such interest from the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.04 of this Agreement. Additionally, any other benefit derived from the Custodial Account associated with the receipt, disbursement and accumulation of principal,
interest, taxes, hazard insurance, mortgage insurance, etc. shall accrue for the benefit of the Servicer.

The Servicer may recover at any time from amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account with respect to Securitized Loans in the same Trust the amount of any Monthly Advances that the Servicer deems nonrecoverable or that remain unreimbursed to the Servicer from related Liquidation Proceeds after the final liquidation of the related Securitized Loan. In addition, the Servicer may, at any time, withdraw from the Custodial Account funds that are held for future distribution (i.e., were not included in the principal and interest for the preceding Remittance Date) to reimburse itself for Monthly Advances previously made by the Servicer;
(vii) to reimburse itself for unreimbursed Servicing Advances, and for any unpaid Servicing Fees, the Servicer’s right to reimburse itself pursuant to this subclause (vii) with respect to any Securitized Loan being limited to related Liquidation Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, REO Disposition Proceeds and other amounts received in respect of the related REO Property, and such other amounts as may be collected by the Servicer from the Mortgagor or otherwise relating to the Securitized Loan, it being understood that, in the case of any such reimbursement, the Servicer’s right thereto shall be prior to the rights of the related Trust;

|
|
Section 3.05 |
Establishment of and Deposits to Escrow Account. |
The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to a Securitized Loan constituting Escrow Payments separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain an Escrow Account, in the form of a time deposit or demand account, titled “Home Star Mortgage Services, LLC in trust for one or more Homestar Mortgage Securities Trusts.” The Escrow Account shall be established with a Qualified Depository in a manner that shall provide maximum available insurance thereunder. Funds deposited in the Escrow Account may be drawn on by the Servicer in accordance with Section 3.06. The creation of the Escrow Account shall be evidenced by a letter agreement in the form of Exhibit C. A copy of such certification or letter agreement shall be furnished to each Trustee and the Master Servicer.
The Servicer shall deposit in the Escrow Account or Accounts on a daily basis, and retain therein:
(i) all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Securitized Loans, for the purpose of effecting timely payment of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement; and
(ii) all amounts representing Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds that are to be applied to the restoration or repair of any Mortgaged Property.
The Servicer shall make withdrawals from the Escrow Account only to effect such payments as are required under this Agreement, as set forth in Section 3.06. The Servicer shall retain any interest paid on funds deposited in the Escrow Account by the depository institution, other than interest on escrowed funds required by law to be paid to the related Mortgagor. Additionally, any other benefit derived from the Escrow Account associated with the receipt, disbursement and accumulation of principal, interest, taxes, hazard insurance, mortgage insurance, etc. shall accrue to the Servicer. To the extent required by law, the Servicer shall pay interest on escrowed funds to the related Mortgagor notwithstanding that the Escrow Account may be non-interest bearing or that interest paid thereon is insufficient for such purposes.
|
|
Section 3.06 |
Permitted Withdrawals From Escrow Account. |
Withdrawals from the Escrow Account or Accounts may be made by the Servicer only:
(i) to effect payments of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, sewer rents, mortgage insurance premiums, condominium charges, fire and hazard insurance premiums or other items constituting Escrow Payments for the related Mortgage;
(ii) to refund to any related Mortgagor any funds found to be in excess of the amounts required under the terms of the related Securitized Loan;
(iii) as permitted by applicable state law, for transfer to the Custodial Account and application to reduce the principal balance of the related Securitized Loan in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note;

(v) to pay to the Servicer, or the related Mortgagor to the extent required by law, any interest paid on the funds with respect to a Securitized Loan deposited in the Escrow Account; and
(vi) to reimburse itself for any Servicing Advances made with respect to Escrow Payments for a Securitized Loan or the related Mortgaged Properties, but only from amounts received on the related Securitized Loan which represent late collections of Escrow Payments thereunder;
|
|
(vii) |
to withdraw any funds deposited into the Escrow Account in error; and |
(viii) to clear and terminate the Escrow Account on the termination of this Agreement.
The Servicer will be responsible for the administration of the Escrow Accounts and will be obligated to make Servicing Advances to the Escrow Account in respect of its obligations under this Section 3.06, reimbursable from the Escrow Accounts or Custodial Account to the
extent not collected from a Mortgagor, anything to the contrary notwithstanding, when and as necessary to avoid the lapse of insurance coverage on the related Mortgaged Property, or which the Servicer knows, or in the exercise of the required standard of care of the Servicer hereunder should know, is necessary to avoid the loss of such Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure as a result of a tax lien. If any such payment has not been made and the Servicer receives notice of a tax lien with respect to such Mortgaged Property being imposed, the Servicer will, within ten (10) Business Days of such notice, advance or cause to be advanced funds necessary to discharge such lien on such Mortgaged Property.
|
|
Section 3.07 |
Restoration of Mortgaged Property. |
The Servicer need not obtain the approval of the Master Servicer prior to releasing any Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds to the Mortgagor to be applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property if such release is in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. At a minimum, with respect to claims of $10,000 or more, the Servicer shall comply with the following conditions in connection with any such release of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds:
(i) the Servicer shall receive satisfactory independent verification of completion of repairs and issuance of any required approvals with respect thereto;
(ii) the Servicer shall take all steps necessary to preserve the priority of the lien of the Mortgage, including, but not limited to requiring waivers with respect to mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens.
(iii) the Servicer shall verify that the Securitized Loan is not 60 or more days delinquent; and
(iv) pending repairs or restoration, the Servicer shall place the Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds in the Escrow Account.
With respect to claims of less than $10,000, the Servicer shall comply with the following conditions in connection with any such release of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds:
(v) the related Mortgagor shall provide an affidavit verifying the completion of repairs and issuance of any required approvals with respect thereto;
(vi) the Servicer shall verify the total amount of the claim with the applicable insurance company; and

|
Section 3.08 |
Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance. |
The Servicer shall keep in force and shall cause each sub-servicer to keep in force during the term of this Agreement a Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance the minimum coverage of which shall be at least equal to the coverage required by the Master Servicer in the Master Servicing Guide (unless a waiver of such requirement has been obtained by the Servicer from the Master Servicer and NIMs Insurer). Such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance shall be maintained with recognized insurers, shall be in such form and amount as would permit the Servicer to be qualified with the Master Servicer as a servicer, and shall by its terms not be cancelable without thirty days’ prior written notice to the Trustee, the NIMs Insurer and the Master Servicer. The Servicer and each sub-servicer shall be deemed to have complied with this provision if an affiliate of the Servicer has such errors and omissions and fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms of such insurance policy or fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the Servicer. The Servicer shall furnish and shall cause each sub-servicer to furnish to the Trustee, each NIMs Insurer (upon reasonable request) and the Master Servicer a copy of each such bond and insurance policy upon their request.
|
|
Section 3.09 |
Notification of Adjustments. |
With respect to each Adjustable Rate Securitized Loan, the Servicer shall adjust the Mortgage Interest Rate on the related interest rate adjustment date and shall adjust the Monthly Payment on the related mortgage payment adjustment date, if applicable, in compliance with the requirements of applicable law and the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note. The Servicer shall execute and deliver any and all necessary notices required under applicable law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage regarding the Mortgage Interest Rate and Monthly Payment adjustments. The Servicer shall promptly, upon written request therefor, deliver to the Master Servicer such notifications and any additional applicable data regarding such adjustments and the methods used to calculate and implement such adjustments. Upon the discovery by the Servicer or the receipt of notice from the Master Servicer that the Servicer has failed to adjust a Mortgage Interest Rate or Monthly Payment in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Note, the Servicer shall immediately deposit in the Custodial Account from its own funds the amount of any interest loss or deferral caused thereby and shall indemnify the Trust in respect of any liability as a result of such shortfall.
|
|
Section 3.10 |
Payment of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges. |
With respect to each Securitized Loan, the Servicer shall maintain accurate records reflecting the status of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates and other charges which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the status of fire and hazard insurance coverage and shall obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such charges (including renewal premiums) and shall effect payment thereof prior to the applicable penalty or termination date and at a time appropriate for securing maximum discounts allowable, employing for such purpose deposits of the Mortgagor in the Escrow Account which shall have been estimated and accumulated by the Servicer in amounts sufficient for such purposes, as allowed under the terms of the Mortgage or applicable regulations. The Servicer assumes full responsibility for the payment of all such bills and shall effect payments of all such bills irrespective of the Mortgagor’s faithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the
Escrow Payments and shall make advances from its own funds to effect such payments. The Servicer shall employ Accepted Servicing Practices to ensure that the related Mortgaged Property is not subjected to a tax lien as a result of nonpayment and that such Mortgaged Property is not left uninsured.
|
|
Section 3.11 |
Protection of Accounts. |
The Servicer may transfer the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account to a different Qualified Depository from time to time. The Servicer shall give written notice to the Trustee and the NIMs Insurer and the Master Servicer of the location of the Custodial Account maintained by it with respect to the Securitized Loans when established and prior to any change thereof.
The Servicer shall bear any expenses, losses or damages sustained by the Trustee or the Master Servicer if the Custodial Account and/or the Escrow Account are not demand deposit accounts.
Amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account and the Escrow Account may at the option of the Servicer be invested in Eligible Investments; provided that in the event that amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account exceed the amount fully insured by the FDIC (the “Insured Amount”), the Servicer shall be obligated to invest the excess amount over the Insured Amount in Eligible Investments on the same Business Day as such excess amount becomes present in the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account. Any such Eligible Investment shall mature no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the related Remittance Date or other date on which funds are needed to be disbursed. Any such Eligible Investment shall be made in the name of the Servicer in trust for the benefit of one or more Homestar Mortgage Securities Trusts, as their interests may appear. All income on or gain realized from any such Eligible Investment shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and may be withdrawn at any time by the Servicer. Any losses incurred in respect of any such investment shall be deposited in the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account by the Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized.
|
|
Section 3.12 |
Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property. |
In the event that title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of the related Trust, or in the event the related Trust is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as shall be consistent with an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Servicer from any attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is located. The Person or Persons holding such title other than the related Trust shall acknowledge in writing that such title is being held as nominee for the related Trust.
The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the related Trust solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale. The Servicer, either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer, shall manage, conserve, protect and operate such REO Property in the same manner that it manages, conserves, protects and operates other
foreclosed property for its own account, and in the same manner that similar property in the same locality as the REO Property is managed. The Servicer shall attempt to sell the same (and may temporarily rent the same for a period not greater than one year, except as otherwise provided below) on such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the related Trust.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.12, in connection with a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, in the event the Servicer has reasonable cause to believe that a Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, or if the Master Servicer otherwise requests, an environmental inspection or review of such Mortgaged Property to be conducted by a qualified inspector shall be arranged by the Servicer. Upon completion of the inspection, the Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer and the NIMs Insurer with a written report of such environmental inspection. In the event that the environmental inspection report indicates that the Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, the Servicer shall not proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. In the event that the environmental inspection report is inconclusive as to the whether or not the Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, the Servicer shall not, without the prior written approval of the Master Servicer and the NIMs Insurer, proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure. The Servicer shall be reimbursed for all Servicing Advances made pursuant to this paragraph with respect to the related Mortgaged Property from the amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account with respect to Securitized Loans in the same Trust.
In the event that a Trust which has made one or more REMIC elections acquires any REO Property in connection with a default or imminent default on a Securitized Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property not later than the end of the third taxable year after the year of its acquisition by the related Trust unless the Servicer has applied for and received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service (and provides a copy of the same to the Master Servicer) to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions and any relevant proposed legislation and under applicable state law, a REMIC elected by such Trust may hold REO Property for a longer period without adversely affecting the REMIC status of such REMIC or causing the imposition of a federal or state tax upon such REMIC. If the Servicer has received such an extension (and provided a copy of the same to the Master Servicer), then the Servicer shall continue to attempt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value for such period longer than three years as such extension permits (the “Extended Period”). If the Servicer has not received such an extension, and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending 3 months before the end of such third taxable year after its acquisition by the related Trust or if the Servicer has received such an extension, and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the Servicer shall, before the end of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as applicable, (i) purchase such REO Property at a price equal to the REO Property’s fair market value or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest bidder (which may be the Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce a fair price prior to the expiration of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as the case may be. The related Trustee shall sign any document or take any other action reasonably requested by the Servicer which would enable the Servicer, on behalf of the related Trust, to request such grant of extension.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no REO Property acquired by a Trust shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of such Trust in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would: (i) cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code; or (ii) subject any REMIC elected by such Trust to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from such REO Property, including any taxes imposed by reason of Sections 860F or 860G(c) of the Code, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless such Trust with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.
The Servicer shall also maintain on each REO Property hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property and (ii) the outstanding Principal Balance of the Securitized Loan at the time it becomes REO Property, to the extent required and available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, flood insurance in the amount required above.
The disposition of REO Property shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price, and upon such terms and conditions, as the Servicer deems to be in the best interests of the related Trust. The proceeds of sale of the REO Property shall be promptly deposited in the Custodial Account. After the expenses of such disposition shall have been paid, the Servicer shall reimburse itself pursuant to Section 3.04 hereof for any Servicing Advances it incurred with respect to such REO Property.
The Servicer shall withdraw from the amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account with respect to Securitized Loans in the same Trust funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the REO Property, including the cost of maintaining any hazard insurance pursuant to the Master Servicing Guide. The Servicer shall make monthly distributions on each Remittance Date to the Trustee of the net cash flow from the REO Property (which shall equal the revenues from such REO Property net of the expenses described in this Section 3.12 and of any reserves reasonably required from time to time to be maintained to satisfy anticipated liabilities for such expenses).
|
|
Section 3.13 |
Real Estate Owned Reports. |
Together with the statement furnished pursuant to Section 4.02, the Servicer shall furnish by electronic transmission to the Master Servicer and the NIMs Insurer on or before the Remittance Date each month a statement with respect to any REO Property covering the operation of such REO Property for the previous month and the Servicer’s efforts in connection with the sale of such REO Property and any rental of such REO Property incidental to the sale thereof for the previous month. That statement shall be accompanied by such other information as the Master Servicer shall reasonably request.
|
|
Section 3.14 |
MERS. |
(a) The Servicer shall take such actions as are necessary to cause the related Trust to be clearly identified as the owner of each MERS Securitized Loan on the records of MERS for
purposes of the system of recording transfers of beneficial ownership of mortgages maintained by MERS.
(b) The Servicer shall maintain in good standing its membership in MERS. In addition, the Servicer shall comply with all rules, policies and procedures of MERS, including the Rules of Membership, as amended, and the MERS Procedures Manual, as amended.
(c) With respect to all MERS Securitized Loans serviced hereunder, the Servicer shall promptly notify MERS as to any transfer of beneficial ownership or release of any security interest in such Securitized Loans.
(d) With respect to all MERS Securitized Loans serviced hereunder, the Servicer shall notify MERS as to any transfer of servicing pursuant to Section 9.01 within 10 Business Days of such transfer of servicing. The Servicer shall cooperate with each Trustee and any successor servicer to the extent necessary to ensure that such transfer of servicing is appropriately reflected on the MERS system.
|
|
Section 3.15 |
Waiver of Prepayment Penalties. |
Except as provided below, the Servicer or any designee of the Servicer shall not waive any Prepayment Charge with respect to any Securitized Loan. If the Servicer or its designee fails to collect a Prepayment Charge at the time of the related prepayment of any Securitized Loan subject to such Prepayment Charge, the Servicer shall pay to the Trust at such time (by deposit to the Custodial Account) an amount equal to the amount of the Prepayment Charge not collected. The Seller warrants that the schedule of Prepayment Charges listed in each Transfer Notice shall be complete, true and accurate and may be relied on by the Servicer in its calculation of Prepayment Charges. Notwithstanding the above, the Servicer or its designee may waive a Prepayment Charge only if (i) the related prepayment is not the result of a refinancing by the Servicer or its designee, (ii) such waiver relates to a defaulted Securitized Loan or a reasonably foreseeable default, (iii) such waiver is standard and customary in servicing similar mortgage loans to the Securitized Loans, and (iv) such waiver, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, would maximize recovery of total proceeds from the Securitized Loan, taking into account the amount of such Prepayment Charge and the related Securitized Loan. If a Prepayment Charge is waived as permitted by meeting the standards described above, then the Servicer is required to pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge, for the benefit of the holders of the Class P Certificates (as defined in the related Trust Agreement), by depositing such amount into the Custodial Account together with and at the time that the amount prepaid on the related Securitized Loan is required to be deposited into the Custodial Account.
Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Servicer or receipt of notice by the Servicer of the breach of the representation or covenant of the Servicer set forth in this Section 3.15 which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Holders of the Class P Certificates in any Prepayment Charge, the Servicer shall remedy such breach as follows: if any of the covenants made by the Servicer in this Section 3.15 is breached, the Servicer must pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge, for the benefit of the Holders of the Class P Certificates, by depositing such amount into the Custodial Account.
|
|
Section 3.16 |
Servicing and Administration of PMI Policies. |
(a) The Servicer shall take all such actions on behalf of the Trustee as are necessary to service, maintain and administer PMI Policies and to perform and enforce the rights under such Policies for the benefit of the related Trust. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Servicer shall have full authority on behalf of the related Trust to do anything it reasonably deems appropriate or desirable in connection with the servicing, maintenance and administration of the PMI Policies. The Servicer shall not take, or permit any sub-servicer to modify or assume a Securitized Loan covered by a PMI Policy or take any other action with respect to such Securitized Loan which would result in non-coverage under any PMI Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. If a PMI Insurer fails to pay a claim under a PMI Policy as a result of breach by the Servicer or a sub-servicer of its obligations hereunder or under a PMI Policy, the Servicer shall be required to deposit in the Custodial Account on or prior to the next succeeding Remittance Date an amount equal to such unpaid claim from its own funds without any right to reimbursement from the related Trust. To the extent coverage is available, the Servicer shall keep or cause to be kept in full force and effect the Insurance Policies for as long as any Certificates issued by the related Trust are outstanding. The Servicer shall cooperate with each PMI Insurer and shall use its best efforts to furnish all reasonable aid, evidence and information in the possession of the Servicer to which the Servicer has access with respect to any Securitized Loan; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in a PMI Policy, the Servicer shall not be required to submit any reports to a PMI Insurer until a reporting date that is at least 15 days after the Servicer has received sufficient loan level information from the Seller to appropriately code its servicing system in accordance with such PMI Insurer’s requirements.
(b) The Servicer shall deposit into the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.03(xiii) hereof all Insurance Proceeds received from the PMI Insurer under the terms of a PMI Policy.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of (a) and (b) above, the Servicer shall not take any action in regard to any PMI Policy inconsistent with the interests of the related Trust or the related Certificateholders or with the rights and interests of the related Trust or the related Certificateholders under this Agreement.
(d) The related Trustee shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents (within fifteen (15) days upon request from the Servicer) in form as provided to it necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to service and administer any PMI Policy; provided, however, that the related Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer under such powers of attorney.

|
Section 3.17 |
Maintenance of Hazard Insurance. |
The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Securitized Loan hazard insurance such that all buildings upon the related Mortgaged Property are insured by a generally acceptable insurer against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary in the area where such Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the current principal balance of such Securitized Loan and (ii) the
amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or loss to the improvements that are a part of such property on a replacement cost basis, in each case in an amount not less than the amount as is necessary to avoid the application of any co-insurance clause contained in the related hazard insurance policy.
Any payments by the Servicer for hazard insurance, other than as set forth in the last paragraph of this Section 3.17, shall be deemed Servicing Advances, reimbursable in accordance with Section 3.04(vii) or (x), to the extent not collected from the related Mortgagor. The Servicer will comply in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any such hazard policies. Any amounts to be collected by the Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property or amounts to be released to the Mortgagor subject to the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note) shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.04, if received in respect of a Securitized Loan. Any cost incurred by the Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Securitized Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Securitized Loan so permit. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance. If a Mortgaged Property or REO Property is at any time in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards and flood insurance has been made available, the Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy in respect thereof. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Securitized Loan and (ii) the maximum amount of such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance program (assuming that the area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is participating in such program).
In the event that the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy with an insurer having a General Policy Rating of B:III or better in Best’s Key Rating Guide (or such other rating that is comparable to such rating) insuring against hazard losses on all of the Securitized Loans in a Trust, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in the first two sentences of this Section 3.17 with respect to the Securitized Loans in such Trust, it being understood and agreed that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with the first two sentences of this Section 3.17, and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such policy, deposit to the Custodial Account from its own funds without right of reimbursement the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause for the benefit of the related Trust. In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of the Securitized Loans, the Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trust and the Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy. Copies of such claims shall be provided to the NIMs Insurer.
|
|
Section 3.18 |
Realization Upon Defaulted Securitized Loans. |
(a) The Servicer shall use its best efforts and, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the Securitized Loans (including selling any such Securitized Loans other than converting the ownership of the related properties) as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments. The Servicer shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however, that such costs and expenses will be recoverable as Servicing Advances by the Servicer as contemplated in Section 3.04. The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which a Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage from an uninsured cause, the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such Mortgaged Property unless it has determined that such restoration will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Securitized Loan after reimbursement to itself for such expenses. In instituting foreclosures or other similar proceedings, the Servicer shall institute such proceedings in its own name on behalf of the related Trust, unless otherwise required by applicable law or otherwise appropriate.
(b) If the Servicer determines that it is in the best economic interest of a Trust and the Certificateholders to sell a Distressed Securitized Loan rather than foreclosing, the Servicer may effect such a sale. The net proceeds of such sale shall be Liquidation Proceeds.
(c) Proceeds received in connection with any Final Recovery Determination, as well as any recovery resulting from a partial collection of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds, in respect of any Securitized Loan, will be applied in the following order of priority: first, to unpaid Servicing Fees; second, to reimburse the Servicer or any sub-servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances pursuant to Section 3.04; third, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Securitized Loan, to the date of the Final Recovery Determination, or to the Due Date prior to the Remittance Date on which such amounts are to be remitted to the Master Servicer if not in connection with a Final Recovery Determination; and fourth, as a recovery of principal of the Securitized Loan. The portion of the recovery so allocated to any unpaid Servicing Fee shall be reimbursed to the Servicer or any sub-servicer pursuant to Section 3.04.
|
|
Section 3.19 |
Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreement. |
The Servicer will, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or prospective conveyance of any Mortgaged Property by any Mortgagor (whether by absolute conveyance or contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor remains or is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the Mortgage), exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Securitized Loan under the “due-on-sale” clause, if any, applicable thereto; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be required to take such action if in its sole business judgment the Servicer believes it is not in the best interests of the related Trust and shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law from doing so. If the Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such “due-on-sale” clause, or if any of the other conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence apply, the Servicer will enter into an assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to whom such property has been conveyed or is
proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted by applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. The Servicer is also authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with such person, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and such person is substituted as the Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note, provided that no such substitution shall be effective unless such person satisfies the underwriting criteria of the Servicer and has a credit risk rating at least equal to that of the original Mortgagor. In connection with any assumption or substitution, the Servicer shall apply such underwriting standards and follow such practices and procedures as shall be normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities and as it applies to other mortgage loans owned solely by it. The Servicer shall not take or enter into any assumption and modification agreement, however, unless (to the extent practicable in the circumstances) it shall have received confirmation, in writing, of the continued effectiveness of any applicable hazard insurance policy. Any fee collected by the Servicer in respect of an assumption, modification or substitution of liability agreement shall be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation. In connection with any such assumption, no material term of the Mortgage Note (including but not limited to the related Mortgage Interest Rate and the amount of the Monthly Payment) may be amended or modified, except as otherwise required pursuant to the terms thereof. The Servicer shall notify the related Trustee that any such substitution, modification or assumption agreement has been completed by the Servicer, and the Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian the executed original of such substitution, modification or assumption agreement, which document shall be added to the related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof, and the Servicer shall also deliver to the Trustee a copy of the executed substitution, modification or assumption agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a Securitized Loan by operation of law or by the terms of the Mortgage Note or any assumption which the Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatever. For purposes of this Section 3.19, the term “assumption” is deemed to also include a sale (of the Mortgaged Property) subject to the Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability agreement.
|
|
Section 3.20 |
Credit Risk Manager. |
The Servicer acknowledges and agrees that, under any Trust Agreement, a Credit Risk Manager may be required to provide certain credit risk management services as provided therein. If so, the Servicer hereby agrees to cooperate with the Credit Risk Manager in connection with all reasonable requests made by the Credit Risk Manager, including, without limitation, promptly providing copies of any servicing reports and remittance advices required under this Agreement to the Credit Risk Manager.
|
|
Section 3.21 |
Compliance with Applicable Laws. |
All requirements of any federal, state or local law (including usury, truth in lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection, equal credit opportunity, disclosure or
recording, predatory and abusive lending laws) applicable to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans will be complied with by the Servicer in all material respects.

With respect to any remittance received by the Master Servicer after the Business Day on which such payment was due, the Servicer shall pay to the Master Servicer interest on any such late payment at an annual rate equal to LIBOR, adjusted as of the date of each change, plus four (4) percentage points, but in no event greater than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Such interest shall be deposited in the Custodial Account by the Servicer on the date such late payment is made and shall cover the period commencing with the day following the Remittance Date and ending with the Business Day on which such payment is made, both inclusive. Such interest shall be remitted along with the distribution payable on the next succeeding Remittance Date. The payment by the Servicer of any such interest shall not be deemed an extension of time for payment or a waiver of any Event of Default by the Master Servicer or any applicable Trustee.
All remittances required to be made to the Master Servicer shall be made on a scheduled/scheduled basis to the following wire account or to such other account as may be specified by the Master Servicer from time to time:

Section 4.02 |
Statements to Master Servicer. |
Not later than the 10th calendar day of each month (or if such calendar day is not a Business Day, the immediately succeeding Business Day), the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMs Insurer with respect to each related Trust, or as the Servicer and
the Master Servicer may otherwise agree (a) a monthly remittance advice in the format set forth at Exhibit D hereto with regard to monthly loan remittance data, Exhibit E with regard to default mortgage loans, and Exhibit F with regard to realized losses or gains for the period ending on the first day of such calendar month (i.e., the Due Period) and (b) all such information required pursuant to clause (a) above in an electronic file or other similar media reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer. The Servicer shall also furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMs Insurer (in such format mutually agreed to by the Servicer and the Master Servicer) a monthly report detailing loan level Prepayment Charges collected and/or waived by the Servicer in accordance with Section 3.15.
Such monthly remittance advice shall also be accompanied with a supplemental report provided to the Master Servicer which includes on an aggregate basis for the previous Due Period (i) the amount of claims filed, (ii) the amount of any claim payments made, (iii) the amount of claims denied or curtailed and (iv) policies cancelled with respect to those Securitized Loans covered by any PMI Policy or any other provider of primary mortgage insurance purchased by the Trust. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in a PMI Policy, the Servicer shall not be required to submit any supplemental reports including the foregoing data with respect to a PMI Policy until a reporting date that is at least 15 days after the Servicer has received sufficient loan level information from the Seller to appropriately code its servicing system in accordance with requirements.
In addition, not more than 60 days after the end of each calendar year, commencing December 31, 2004, the Servicer shall provide (as such information becomes reasonably available to the Servicer) to the Master Servicer such information concerning the Securitized Loans and annual remittances to the Master Servicer with respect to the Securitized Loans in each Trust as is necessary for each Certificateholder and the NIMs Insurer to prepare its federal income tax return. Such obligation of the Servicer shall be deemed to have been satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall be provided by the Servicer to the Master Servicer and pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from time to time are in force.
Beginning with calendar year 2004, the Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer and each Trustee with such information concerning the related Securitized Loans as is necessary for such Trustee to prepare the related Trust’s federal income tax return and for any investor in the related Certificates to prepare any required tax return.
|
|
Section 4.03 |
Monthly Advances by Servicer. |
On the Business Day immediately preceding each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall deposit in the Custodial Account from its own funds or from amounts held for future distribution, or both, an amount equal to the aggregate of all Monthly Advances relating to Monthly Payments which were due on the Securitized Loans during the applicable Due Period and which were delinquent at the close of business on the immediately preceding Determination Date. Any amounts held for future distribution and so used shall be replaced by the Servicer by deposit in the Custodial Account on or before any future Remittance Date if funds in the Custodial Account on such Remittance Date shall be less than remittances to the Master Servicer required to be made on such Remittance Date. The Servicer shall keep appropriate records of such amounts and will provide such records to the Master Servicer upon request. No provision in this
Agreement shall be construed as limiting the Servicer’s right to (i) pass through late collections on the related Securitized Loans in lieu of making Monthly Advances (ii) reimburse itself for such Monthly Advances from late collections on the related Securitized Loans or (iii) utilize an Advancing Person (as defined below).
The Servicer’s obligation to make such Monthly Advances as to any Mortgage Loan will continue through the last Monthly Payment due prior to the payment in full of the Mortgage Loan, or through the last Remittance Date prior to the Remittance Date for the distribution of all Liquidation Proceeds and other payments or recoveries (including REO Disposition Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds) with respect to the Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such obligation shall cease if the Servicer determines, in its sole reasonable opinion, that advances with respect to such Mortgage Loan are non-recoverable by the Servicer from Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds, or otherwise with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan.
The Servicer, with the consent of the NIMs Insurer, may enter into a facility with any person including the Sub-Servicer which provides that such person (an “Advancing Person”) may fund Monthly Advances required under this Section 4.03 and/or Servicing Advances, although no such facility shall reduce or otherwise affect the Servicer’s obligation to fund such Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances. Any Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances made by an Advancing Person shall be reimbursed to the Advancing Person in the same manner as reimbursements would be made to the Servicer under Section 3.04 if such Monthly Advances or Servicing Advance were funded by the Servicer.
|
|
Section 4.04 |
Compensating Interest. |
The Servicer shall be required to deposit in the Custodial Account, and retain therein with respect to each Principal Prepayment, the Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount, if any, for the related Due Period. Such deposit shall be made from the Servicer’s own funds, without reimbursement therefor, up to an amount equal to the lesser of with respect to the Securitized Loans in each Trust (i) the Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount or (ii) the Servicing Fee, in each case, with respect to the Securitized Loans in such Trust. The Servicer shall not be obligated to pay any Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount with respect to any Relief Act Reduction or bankruptcy.
|
|
Section 4.05 |

The Servicer shall be entitled to recover any unpaid Servicing Fee out of Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds to the extent permitted in Section 3.04 and out of amounts derived from the operation and sale of an REO Property to the extent permitted by Section 3.12.

(i) Based on my knowledge, the information in the annual statement of compliance furnished pursuant to Section 5.03, the annual independent public accountant’s servicing report furnished pursuant to Section 5.02 and all servicing reports, officer’s certificates and other information relating to the servicing of the Securitized Loans submitted to the Master Servicer taken as a whole, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading as of the date of this certification;
(ii) The servicing information required to be provided to the Master Servicer by the Servicer under this Agreement has been provided to the Master Servicer;
(iii) I am responsible for reviewing the activities performed by the Servicer under the Agreement and based upon the review required by the Agreement, and except as disclosed in the annual statement of compliance, the annual independent public accountant’s servicing report and all servicing reports, officer’s certificates and other information relating to the servicing of the Securitized Loans submitted to the Master Servicer, the Servicer has, as of the date of this certification fulfilled its obligations under the Agreement; and
(iv) I have disclosed to the Master Servicer all significant deficiencies relating to the Servicer’s compliance with the minimum servicing standards in accordance with a review conducted in compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers or similar standard as set forth in the Agreement.

willful misconduct of the Servicer in connection therewith. If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Master Servicer, then the Servicer agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Master Servicer as a result of losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Master Servicer in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Master Servicer on the one hand and the Servicer on the other in connection with a breach of the Servicer’s obligations under Sections 5.02, 5.03 or 5.04 or the Servicer’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith.

Within 60 days of the earlier of either discovery by or notice to the Servicer of a breach of a representation or warranty set forth in Section 6.01 which materially and adversely affects the ability of the Servicer, together with its designated sub-servicer, to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement or otherwise materially and adversely affects the value of the Securitized Loans, the Mortgaged Property or the priority of the security interest on such Mortgaged Property, the Servicer shall use its best efforts promptly to cure such breach in all material respects and, if such breach cannot be cured, the Servicer shall, at the option of the Trustee, assign the Servicer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (or respecting the affected Securitized Loans) with respect to a Trust to a successor servicer selected by the related Trustee with the prior consent and approval of the Master Servicer. Such assignment shall be made in accordance with Section 9.01 and 9.02.
In addition, the Servicer shall indemnify the Seller, the Master Servicer, NIMs Insurer, any Depositor and each Trustee and hold each of them harmless against any Costs resulting from any claim, demand, defense or assertion based on or grounded upon, or resulting from, a breach of the Servicer’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that the remedies set forth in this Section 6.02 constitute the sole remedies of the Seller, the Master Servicer, any Depositor, and each Trust and Trustee hereunder respecting a breach of the foregoing representations and warranties.
Any cause of action against the Servicer relating to or arising out of the breach of any representations and warranties made in Section 6.01 shall accrue upon (i) discovery of such breach by the Servicer or notice thereof by the Seller, the Master Servicer, NIMs Insurer, any Depositor or a Trustee to the Servicer, (ii) failure by the Servicer to cure such breach within the applicable cure period, and (iii) demand upon the Servicer by the Seller, any Depositor, NIMs Insurer, the Master Servicer or a Trustee for compliance with this Agreement.

Additional Indemnification by the Servicer; Third Party Claims. |
The Servicer shall indemnify the Seller, any Depositor, NIMs Insurer, each Trustee, the Master Servicer and each Trust and hold them harmless against any and all Costs that any such indemnified party may sustain in any way related to (i) the failure of the Servicer to perform its duties and service the related Securitized Loans in material compliance with the terms of this Agreement or (ii) the failure of the Servicer to cause any event to occur which would have occurred if the Servicer were applying Accepted Servicing Practices under this Agreement. The Servicer shall immediately notify the Seller, any related Depositor, NIMs Insurer, the Master Servicer, the related Trustee or any other relevant party if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the related Securitized Loans, assume (with the prior written consent of the indemnified party) the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or any indemnified party in respect of such claim and follow any written instructions received from such indemnified party in connection with such claim. The Servicer shall be promptly reimbursed by the related Trust or Trusts for all amounts advanced by it pursuant to the preceding sentence except when the claim is in any way related to the Servicer’s indemnification pursuant to Section 6.02, or the failure of the Servicer, together with its designated sub-servicer, to service and administer the Securitized Loans in material compliance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event a dispute arises between an
indemnified party and the Servicer with respect to any of the rights and obligations of the parties pursuant to this Agreement, and such dispute is adjudicated in a court of law, by an arbitration panel or any other judicial process, then the losing party shall indemnify and reimburse the winning party for all attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses related to the adjudication of said dispute.

Section 6.04 |
Indemnification with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of REMIC Status. |
In the event that any REMIC elected by a Trust fails to qualify as a REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a result of a prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution under the REMIC Provisions due to the negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein, the Servicer shall indemnify the Holder of the related Residual Certificate, the Master Servicer, the related Trustee and the related Trust against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (“Losses”) resulting from such negligence; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action or inaction of the related Trustee, any related Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Holder of such Residual Certificate, as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from misinformation provided by the Holder of such Residual Certificate or any such other party on which the Servicer has relied. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights and remedies of the Holder of such Residual Certificate or the related Trust now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no event shall the Servicer have any liability (1) for any action or omission that is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses other than arising out of a negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein, and (3) for any special or consequential damages to the related Certificateholders.
ARTICLE VII.
THE SERVICER
|
|
Section 7.01 |
Merger or Consolidation of the Servicer. |
The Servicer shall keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a limited liability company, and shall obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign entity in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to perform its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement.
Any Person into which the Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Servicer, shall, with the prior written consent of the Master Servicer, be the successor of the Servicer hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person shall be an institution (i) having a net worth of not less than $25,000,000, and (ii) which is a Xxxxxxx Mac-approved or Xxxxxx Mae-approved servicer in good standing.
|
|
Section 7.02 |
Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others. |
Neither the Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Seller, the Master Servicer, any Depositor, any Trust or any Trustee hereunder 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 Servicer or any such person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein, or failure to perform its obligations in strict compliance with any standard of care set forth in this Agreement, or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of any breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its duties to service the Securitized Loans in accordance with this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Servicer may, with the consent of the related Trustee, NIMs Insurer and the Master Servicer, undertake any such action which it deems necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto. In such event, the Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement from the related Trust for the reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action.
|
|
Section 7.03 |
Limitation on Resignation and Assignment by the Servicer. |
The Servicer shall neither assign its rights under this Agreement or the servicing hereunder nor delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets without, in each case, the prior written consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the related Trustee and the NIMs Insurer, which consent, in the case of an assignment of rights or delegation of duties, shall be granted or withheld in the
discretion of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the related Trustee, and which consent, in the case of a sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the property or assets of the Servicer, shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that in each case, there must be delivered to the Seller, the Master Servicer and the related Trustee and NIMs Insurer a letter from the applicable Rating Agency or Rating Agencies to the effect that such transfer of servicing or sale or disposition of assets will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates, and provided further, without any consent or notice the Servicer may delegate its servicing duties hereunder to the Sub-Servicer pursuant to the Sub-Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer, without the consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the related Trustee, may retain third-party contractors to perform certain servicing and loan administration functions, including without limitation, hazard insurance administration, tax payment and administration, flood certification and administration, collection services and similar functions; provided, however, that the retention of such contractors by Servicer shall not limit the obligation of the Servicer to service the Securitized Loans pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it with respect to the Securitized Loans in a Trust except by mutual consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the related Trustee, with the consent of the NIMs Insurer, or upon the determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law and such incapacity cannot be cured by the Servicer. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Seller, the Master Servicer and the related Trustee and NIMs Insurer which Opinion of Counsel shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Seller, the Master Servicer and the related Trustee and NIMs Insurer. No such resignation shall become effective until a successor acceptable to the Master Servicer shall have assumed the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations hereunder in the manner provided in Section 9.01.
Without in any way limiting the generality of this Section 7.03, in the event that the Servicer either shall assign this Agreement or the servicing responsibilities hereunder or delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets, without the prior written consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and NIMs Insurer (except as provided by the first paragraph of this Section 7.03 and Section 7.04), then such parties shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon notice given as set forth in Section 8.01, without any payment of any penalty or damages and without any liability whatsoever to the Servicer or any third party.
Section 7.04 Sub-Servicing Agreements; Sub-Servicing Acknowledgment Agreement; Successor Sub-Servicer.
(a) The Servicer may enter into sub-servicing agreements, with the consent of the NIMs Insurer, for any servicing and administration of the Securitized Loans with any institution which (i) is an approved Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac Seller/Servicer as indicated in writing, and (ii) represents and warrants that it is in compliance with the laws of each state as necessary to enable it to perform its obligations under such sub-servicing agreement. For this purpose, sub-servicing shall not be deemed to include the use of a tax service, or services for reconveyance, insurance or brokering REO Property. The Servicer shall give prior written notice
to the Master Servicer, the Trustee and NIMs Insurer of the appointment of any sub-servicer and shall furnish to the Master Servicer, the Trustee and NIMs Insurer a copy of such sub-servicing agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received payments on Securitized Loans immediately upon receipt by any sub-servicer of such payments. Any such sub-servicing agreement shall be acceptable to the Master Servicer and the related Trustee and NIMs Insurer and shall be consistent with and not violate the provisions of this Agreement. Each sub-servicing agreement shall provide that a successor servicer shall have the option to terminate such agreement without payment of any fees if the predecessor Servicer is terminated or resigns.
(b) The Servicer, with the consent of the NIMs Insurer, may terminate any sub-servicing agreement to which it is a party in accordance with the terms and conditions of such sub-servicing agreement and either itself directly service the related Securitized Loans or enter into a sub-servicing agreement with a successor sub-servicer that qualifies under Section 7.04(a).
(c) Notwithstanding any sub-servicing agreement or the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a sub-servicer or reference to actions taken through a sub-servicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Trust and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administering of the Securitized Loans in accordance with the provisions hereof without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such sub-servicing agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the sub-servicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Securitized Loans. The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a sub-servicer for indemnification of the Servicer by such sub-servicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.
(d) In the event of a Subservicer Termination Trigger, the Servicer shall terminate the related Subservicer at the direction of the NIMS Insurer. Following such termination, the Servicer shall have the right to service such Securitized Loans without the use of a Subservicer or to engage a new Subservicer acceptable to the NIMS Insurer pursuant to a Subservicing Agreement, which is not in conflict with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall retain the ownership of all servicing rights with respect to the related Securitized Loans and no such direction of termination of a Subservicer shall be deemed to diminish such ownership.
|
|
Section 7.05 |
Inspection. |
The Servicer shall offer each Trustee, NIMs Insurer and the Master Servicer, upon reasonable advance notice, during normal business hours, access to all records maintained by the Servicer in respect of its rights and obligations hereunder and access to officers of the Servicer responsible for such obligations. Upon request, the Servicer shall furnish to each Trustee, NIMs Insurer and the Master Servicer its most recent publicly available financial statements and such other information relating to its capacity to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
ARTICLE VIII.
TERMINATION
|
|
Section 8.01 |
Termination for Cause. |
This Agreement shall be terminable at the option of the Master Servicer or the related Trustee if any of the following events of default exist on the part of the Servicer:
(i) any failure by the Servicer to remit to the Master Servicer any payment required to be made under the terms of this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of one Business Day after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been received by the Servicer from the Master Servicer, the NIMs Insurer or a related Trustee; or
(ii) failure by the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement (except with respect to its obligations under Section 5.02, 5.03 or 5.04) which continues unremedied for a period of 15 days following the Servicer’s receipt of written notice of such failure from the Master Servicer, the NIMs Insurer or a related Trustee; or
(iii) failure by the Servicer to maintain its license or to cause its designated sub-servicer to do business or service residential Securitized Loans in any jurisdiction, if required by such jurisdiction, where a Mortgaged Property is located; or
(iv) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, including bankruptcy, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days; or
(v) the Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Servicer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or
(vi) the Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations or cease its normal business operations for three Business Days; or
(vii) the Servicer ceases to meet or to cause its designated sub-servicer to meet the qualifications of a Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac seller/servicer; or
(viii) the Servicer attempts to assign the servicing of the Securitized Loans or its right to servicing compensation hereunder or the Servicer attempts to sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets or to assign this Agreement or the servicing
responsibilities hereunder or to delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof, in each case without complying fully with the provisions of Section 7.03 or Section 7.04; or
(ix) failure by the Servicer to duly perform, within the required time period, its obligations under Sections 5.02, 5.03 or 5.04 which failure continues unremedied for a period of fifteen (15) days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by any party to this Servicing Agreement, by the NIMs Insurer or by any master servicer responsible for master servicing the Securitized Loans pursuant to a securitization of such Securitized Loans.
In each and every such case, so long as an event of default shall not have been remedied within the applicable cure period, in addition to whatever rights the Master Servicer or a related Trustee may have at law or equity to damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance, the Trustee or the Master Servicer, by notice in writing to the Servicer, and with the consent of the other party, may (and, at the request of the NIMs Insurer, shall) terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the servicing contract established hereby and the proceeds thereof.
Upon receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Securitized Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in a successor servicer appointed by the Trustee or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, with the consent of the other party and the NIMs Insurer. Upon written request from the Master Servicer, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor servicer or the Trustee any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Servicing Files, and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, including but not limited to the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Securitized Loans and related documents, at the Servicer’s sole expense. The Servicer shall cooperate with the Master Servicer and such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, including without limitation, the transfer to such successor for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited by the Servicer to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Securitized Loans.
By a written notice, the Trustee or the Master Servicer, with the consent of the other parties and the NIMs Insurer, may waive any default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences. Upon any waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.
|
|
Section 8.02 |
Termination Without Cause. |
(a) This Agreement shall terminate upon: (i) the later of (a) the distribution of the final payment or liquidation proceeds on the last Securitized Loan to the Master Servicer or the Trust, and (b) the disposition of all REO Property acquired upon foreclosure of the last Securitized Loan and the remittance of all funds due hereunder or (ii) mutual consent of the Servicer and the Master Servicer in writing, provided such termination is also acceptable to the
applicable Rating Agency or Rating Agencies and the NIMs Insurer. In addition, with the prior written consent of the Master Servicer and the NIMs Insurer, the Seller or its designee may terminate this Agreement with respect to all of the Securitized Loans, without cause, provided, that the Seller or its designee gives the Servicer 30 days’ notice. Any such notice of termination shall be in writing and delivered to the Servicer, NIMs Insurer and the Master Servicer by registered mail to the address set forth in Section 9.03. The Seller or its designee and the Servicer shall comply with the termination procedures set forth in Section 9.01 hereof. All unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances still owing the Servicer shall be paid by the Seller or its designee or the successor servicer from its own funds within 5 Business Days of the date of such termination without right of reimbursement from the Trust. In connection with any termination pursuant to clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 8.02(a), all unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances still owing the Servicer shall be paid at the time of such termination by the Trust.
Upon a termination of the Servicer for cause pursuant to Section 8.01, all unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances still owing the Servicer shall be paid by the Trust as such amounts are received from the related Securitized Loans. In connection with any termination pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 8.02(a), the Seller or its designee or the successor servicer will be responsible for reimbursing the Servicer for all unreimbursed out-of-pocket Servicing Advances, Monthly Advances and Servicing Fees and other reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket costs associated with any transfer of servicing at the time of such transfer of servicing. Any invoices received by the Servicer after termination will be forwarded to the Seller or its designee, and the Seller or its designee or the successor servicer shall pay such invoices within five (5) Business Days upon receipt from the Servicer.
(b) In the event that the Servicer decides to terminate its obligations under this Agreement as set forth in clause (ii) of Section 8.02(a), the Servicer agrees that it will continue to service the Securitized Loans beyond the prescribed termination date until such time as the Trustee, using reasonable commercial efforts, is able to appoint, with the consent of the NIMs Insurer, a successor servicer acceptable to the NIMs Insurer and the Master Servicer and otherwise meeting the characteristics of Sections 7.01 and 9.01.
ARTICLE IX.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
|
|
Section 9.01 |
Successor to the Servicer. |
Simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and duties under this Agreement (a) pursuant to Sections 6.02, 7.03, 8.01 or 8.02(a)(ii), the Master Servicer shall (i) within 90 days of the Servicer’s receipt of notice of such termination, succeed to and assume all of the Servicer’s responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement (except that the Master Servicer shall immediately assume all of the obligations of the Servicer to make Monthly Advances), or (ii) appoint a successor acceptable to the NIMs Insurer having the characteristics set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement; or (b) as a result of termination of the Servicer without cause by the Seller pursuant to Section 8.02 hereof, the Seller shall appoint a successor acceptable to the NIMs Insurer having the characteristics set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement. If the NIMs Insurer requests, the Master Servicer shall appoint a successor servicer as provided in the preceding sentence. Any successor to the Servicer shall be subject to the approval of the Master Servicer and the Trustee and, to the extent required by the Trust Agreement, shall be a member in good standing of the MERS system (if any of the Securitized Loans are MERS Eligible Securitized Loans, unless such Securitized Loans are withdrawn from MERS and Assignments of Mortgage are recorded in favor of the Trust at the expense of the successor servicer). The final approval of a successor servicer shall be conditioned upon the receipt by the Trustee, the Master Servicer, NIMs Insurer and the Seller of a letter from the applicable Rating Agency or Rating Agencies to the effect that such transfer of servicing will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Master Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Securitized Loans as it and such successor shall agree, provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of the Servicing Fee permitted under this Agreement. In the event that the Servicer’s duties, responsibilities and liabilities under this Agreement should be terminated pursuant to the aforementioned sections, the Servicer shall discharge such duties and responsibilities during the period from the date it acquires knowledge of such termination until the effective date thereof with the same degree of diligence and prudence which it is obligated to exercise under this Agreement, and shall take no action whatsoever that might impair or prejudice the rights or financial condition of its successor. The resignation or removal of the Servicer pursuant to the aforementioned sections shall not become effective until a successor servicer shall be appointed pursuant to this Section 9.01, or until the Master Servicer succeeds to and assumes all of the Servicer’s responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations pursuant to this Section 9.01, and shall in no event relieve the Servicer of the representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 6.01 and the remedies available to the Trustee, the Trust, the Master Servicer, NIMs Insurer and the Seller under Section 6.02 and 6.03, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of such Sections 6.01, 6.02 and 6.03 shall be
applicable not only to such successor servicer but also to the Servicer notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of the Servicer, or the termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer, in its capacity as successor servicer, shall not be responsible for the lack of information and/or documents that it cannot obtain through reasonable efforts.
Within a reasonable period of time, but in no event longer than 30 days after the appointment of a successor entity, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor entity any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Servicing Files, and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, including but not limited to the transfer and endorsement of the Mortgage Notes and related documents, and the preparation and recordation of Assignments of Mortgage. The Servicer shall cooperate with the Master Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, and such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder and the transfer of servicing responsibilities to the successor servicer, including without limitation, the transfer to such successor for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited by the Servicer to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Securitized Loans.
Any successor servicer appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Trustee, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, NIMs Insurer and the Seller an instrument (i) accepting such appointment, wherein the successor shall make the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.01 (including a representation that the successor servicer is a member of MERS, unless none of the Securitized Loans are MERS Securitized Loans or MERS Eligible Securitized Loans or any such Securitized Loans have been withdrawn from MERS and Assignments of Mortgage are recorded in favor of the Trust) and provide for the same remedies set forth in Section 6.02 and Section 6.03 herein (ii) an assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed and observed by the Servicer under this Agreement, whereupon such successor servicer shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Servicer, with like effect as if originally named as a party to this Agreement. Any termination or resignation of the Servicer or termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 6.02, 7.03, 8.01 or 8.02 shall not affect any claims that the Seller, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, NIMs Insurer or the Trustee may have against the Servicer arising out of the Servicer’s actions or failure to act prior to any such termination or resignation. In addition, in the event any successor servicer is appointed pursuant to Section 8.03 of this Agreement, such successor servicer must satisfy the conditions relating to the transfer of servicing set forth in the Trust Agreement.
The Servicer shall deliver promptly to the successor servicer the funds in the Custodial Account and Escrow Account and all Securitized Loan documents and related documents and statements held by it hereunder and the Servicer shall account for all funds and shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required to more fully and definitively vest in the successor all such rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Servicer.
Upon a successor’s acceptance of appointment as such, the Servicer shall notify the Trustee, the Master Servicer, NIMs Insurer, the Seller and the Depositor of such appointment in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.03.

THIS CUSTODIAL AGREEMENT (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Agreement”), dated as of November 29, 2005, by and among HSBC BANK USA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, not individually but solely as trustee under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement defined below (including its successors under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement defined below, the “Trustee”), OPTEUM MORTGAGE ACCEPTANCE CORPORATION, as depositor (together with any successor in interest, the “Company”), XXXXX FARGO BANK, N.A., as master servicer and securities administrator (together with any successor in interest or successor under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement referred to below, the “Master Servicer”) and XXXXX FARGO BANK, N.A., as custodian (together with any successor in interest or any successor appointed hereunder, the “Custodian”).
WITNESSETH THAT:
WHEREAS, the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee have entered into a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of November 1, 2005, relating to the issuance of OMAC Mortgage Trust 2005-5, Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-5 (as in effect on the date of this Agreement, the “Original Pooling and Servicing Agreement,” and as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement’); and
WHEREAS, the Custodian has agreed to act as agent for the Trustee for the purposes of receiving and holding certain documents and other instruments delivered by the Company or the Master Servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, all upon the terms and conditions and subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the Trustee, the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Custodian hereby agree as follows:
SECTION 1.
DEFINITIONS
1.1 Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned in the Original Pooling and Servicing Agreement, unless otherwise required by the context herein.
SECTION 2.
CUSTODY OF MORTGAGE DOCUMENTS
2.1 Custodian to Act as Agent: Acceptance of Mortgage Files. The Custodian, as the duly appointed custodial agent of the Trustee for these purposes, acknowledges (subject to any exceptions noted in the Initial Certification referred to in Section 2.3(a)), receipt of the Mortgage Files relating to the Mortgage Loans identified on the schedule attached hereto
(the “Mortgage Files”) and declares that it holds and will hold such Mortgage Files as agent for the Trustee, in trust, for the use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.
2.2 Recordation of Assignments. Within 30 days after the Closing Date, the Company shall complete or cause to be completed the Assignments in the name of “HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as trustee under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-5” (or shall prepare or cause to be prepared new forms of Assignment in the name of the Trustee). For each Mortgaged Property in a state, if any, which is specifically excluded from the Opinion of Counsel delivered by the Company to the Trustee and the Custodian, each such Assignment shall be recorded in the appropriate public office for real property records, and returned to the Custodian, at no expense to the Custodian.
|
|
2.3 |
Review of Mortgage Files. |
(a) On or prior to the Closing Date, in accordance with Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Custodian shall deliver to the Trustee an Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit One evidencing receipt (subject to any exceptions noted therein) of a Mortgage File for each of the Mortgage Loans listed on the Schedule attached hereto (the “Mortgage Loan Schedule”).
(b) Not later than 180 days after the Closing Date, the Custodian shall review the Mortgage Files as provided in Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and deliver to the Company and the Trustee a Final Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit Two evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files.
(c) In reviewing the Mortgage Files as provided herein and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Custodian shall make no representation as to and shall not be responsible to verify (i) the validity, legality, enforceability, due authorization, recordability, sufficiency or genuineness of any of the documents included in any Mortgage File or (ii) the collectibility, insurability, effectiveness or suitability of any of the documents in any Mortgage File.
Upon receipt of written request from the Trustee, the Custodian shall as soon as practicable supply the Trustee with a list of all of the documents relating to the Mortgage Loans missing from the Mortgage Files.
2.4 Custodian to Cooperate: Release of Mortgage Files. Upon receipt of notice from the Trustee or the Master Servicer of a repurchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and that the purchase price therefore has been deposited in the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account, then the Custodian agrees to promptly release the related Mortgage File to the Seller or other party at the direction of the Trustee.
Upon the Custodian’s receipt of a request for release (a “Request for Release”) substantially in the form of Exhibit F to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement signed by a servicing officer of the Servicer or a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer stating that it has received payment in full of a Mortgage Loan or that payment in full will be escrowed in a
manner customary for such purposes, the Custodian agrees promptly to release to the Servicer or the Master Servicer the related Mortgage File. The Company shall deliver to the Custodian and the Custodian agrees to accept the Mortgage Note and other documents constituting the Mortgage File with respect to any Substitute Mortgage Loan.
From time to time as is appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose, collection under any Primary Insurance Policy, the Servicer (or if the Servicer does not, the Master Servicer) shall deliver to the Custodian a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer requesting that possession of the Mortgage File be released to the Servicer and certifying as to the reason for such release and that such release will not invalidate any insurance coverage provided in respect of the Mortgage Loan under any of the Insurance Policies. Upon receipt of the foregoing, the Custodian shall deliver the Mortgage File to the Servicer. The Servicer shall cause the Mortgage File or any document therein so released to be returned to the Custodian when the need therefore by the Servicer no longer exists, unless (i) the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account or (ii) the Mortgage File or such document has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Servicer has delivered to the Custodian a certificate of a servicing officer certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which such Mortgage File or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery.
At any time that the Servicer is required to deliver to the Custodian a Request for Release, the Servicer shall deliver two copies of the Request for Release if delivered in hard copy or the Servicer may furnish such Request for Release electronically in a form acceptable to the Custodian, in which event the servicing officer transmitting the same shall be deemed to have signed the Request for Release. In connection with any Request for Release of a Mortgage File because of a repurchase of a Mortgage Loan, such Request for Release shall be followed by an assignment of mortgage, without recourse, representation or warranty from the Trustee to the Seller and the related Mortgage Note shall be endorsed without recourse by the Trustee and be returned to the Seller. In connection with any Request for Release of a Mortgage File because of the payment in full of a Mortgage Loan, such Request for Release shall be accompanied by a certificate of satisfaction or other similar instrument to be executed by or on behalf of the Trustee and returned to the Servicer.
2.5 Assumption Agreements. In the event that any assumption agreement, substitution of liability agreement or sale of servicing agreement is entered into with respect to any Mortgage Loan subject to this Agreement in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer, to the extent provided in the Servicing Agreement, shall enforce the obligation of the Servicer to notify the Custodian that such assumption or substitution agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Custodian the original of such assumption or substitution agreement, which shall be added to the related Mortgage File and, for all purposes, shall be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting parts thereof.
2.6 Endorsement of Mortgage Notes. Within 45 days after the Closing Date, the Custodian shall endorse each Mortgage Note in the name of “HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as trustee under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-5”.
SECTION 3.
CONCERNING THE CUSTODIAN
3.1 Custodian as Bailee and Agent of the Trustee. With respect to each Mortgage Note, Mortgage and other documents constituting each Mortgage File which are delivered to the Custodian, the Custodian is exclusively the bailee and custodial agent of the Trustee and has no instructions to hold any Mortgage Note or Mortgage for the benefit of any person other than the Trustee and the Certificateholders and undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Except upon compliance with the provisions of Section 2.4 of this Agreement, no Mortgage Note, Mortgage or Mortgage File shall be delivered by the Custodian to the Company, the Servicer or the Master Servicer or otherwise released from the possession of the Custodian.
3.2 Custodian May Own Certificates. The Custodian in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights it would have if it were not Custodian.
3.3 Master Servicer to Pay Custodian’s Fees and Expenses. The Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the Custodian from time to time, and the Custodian shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Custodian, and the Master Servicer will pay or reimburse the Custodian upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Custodian in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not regularly in its employ), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith or to the extent that such cost or expense is indemnified by the Trust Fund pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
3.4 Custodian May Resign; Trustee May Remove Custodian. The Custodian may resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed upon it as such obligations and duties relate to its acting as Custodian of the Mortgage Loans. Upon receiving such written notice of resignation, the Trustee shall either take custody of the Mortgage Files itself and give prompt written notice thereof to the Company, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Custodian, or promptly appoint a successor Custodian by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Custodian and one copy to the successor Custodian. If the Trustee shall not have taken custody of the Mortgage Files and no successor Custodian shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such written notice of resignation, the resigning Custodian may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Custodian.
The Trustee may, with or without cause, upon at least 60 days notice remove and discharge the Custodian from the performance of its duties with the consent of the Master Servicer. In such event, the Trustee shall appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a successor Custodian hereunder. Any successor Custodian shall be a depository institution subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority, shall be able to satisfy the other requirements contained in Section 3.6 hereof and shall be unaffiliated with the Servicer or the Company.
Any resignation or removal of the Custodian and appointment of a successor Custodian pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 3.4 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Custodian. The Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Company and the Master Servicer of the appointment of any successor Custodian. No successor Custodian shall be appointed by the Trustee without the prior approval of the Company and the Master Servicer.
3.5 Merger or Consolidation of Custodian. Any Person into which the Custodian may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Custodian shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Custodian, shall be the successor of the Custodian hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
3.6 Representations of the Custodian. The Custodian hereby represents that it is a depository institution subject to supervision or examination by a federal or state authority, has a combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000 and is qualified to do business in the jurisdictions in which it will hold any Mortgage File.
3.7 Standard of Care; Indemnification. Neither the Custodian nor any parent, affiliate, subsidiaries, directors, officers, agents or employees shall have any liability arising from or related to this Custodial Agreement or any related document or agreement, except for any such liability resulting from the Custodian’s negligence or willful misconduct. The Custodian shall be indemnified and held harmless from the Trust Fund to the extent provided in Section 6.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Section 2.01 |
Sale of Mortgage Loans. |
(a) The Seller, by the execution and delivery of this Agreement, does hereby sell, assign, set over, and otherwise convey to the Purchaser, without recourse but subject to the terms of this Agreement, (i) all of its right, title and interest in the Mortgage Loans identified on Exhibit 1 as of the Closing Date, including the related Cut-off Date Principal Balance, all interest accruing thereon on and after the Cut-off Date, and all collections of interest and principal due after the Cut-off Date, other than the servicing rights with respect thereto, (ii) the Seller’s interest in any insurance policies and (iii) all proceeds of the foregoing.

(ii) The original recorded Mortgage, noting the presence of the MIN of the Mortgage Loan and language indicating that the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan if the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan, with evidence of recording indicated thereon; provided that if such document is not included because of a delay by the public recording office where such document has been delivered for recordation or
such office as a matter of policy does not return the original of such document or if such original Mortgage has been lost, the Seller shall include or cause to be included a copy thereof certified by the appropriate recording office, if available;
(iii) unless the Mortgage Loan is registered on the MERS® System, an original duly executed Assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form from the Seller or the originator, as applicable, to “HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as trustee under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to Opteum Mortgage Acceptance Corporation, Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-5” for each Mortgage Note;
(iv) The original intervening Assignments, if any and if available, with evidence of recording thereon, showing an unbroken chain of title to the Mortgage from the originator thereof to Person assigning it to the Trustee (or to MERS, if the Mortgage Loan is registered on the MERS® System and noting the presence of a MIN); provided that if such document is not included because of a delay by the public recording office where such document has been delivered for recordation or such office as a matter of policy does not return the original of such document, the Seller shall include or cause to be included a copy thereof certified by the appropriate recording office, if available;
(v) The originals of each assumption, modification or substitution agreement, if any and if available, relating to the Mortgage Loan; and
(vi) the original title insurance policy, or, if such policy has not been issued, any one of an original or a copy of the preliminary title report, title binder or title commitment on the Mortgaged Property with the original policy of the insurance to be delivered promptly following the receipt thereof;
The Seller need not cause to be recorded any Assignment in any jurisdiction under the laws of which, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered by the Seller to the Trustee and the Rating Agencies, the recordation of such Assignment is not necessary to protect the Trustee’s interest in the related Mortgage Loan; provided, however, notwithstanding the delivery of any Opinion of Counsel, each Assignment shall be submitted for recording by the Seller, at no expense to the Trust or the Trustee, upon the earliest to occur of: (i) reasonable direction by the Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights, (ii) the occurrence of a Event of Default under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, (iii) the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Seller, (iv) the occurrence of a servicing transfer as described in Section 7.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and (v) if the Seller is not the Master Servicer, the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage. Upon receipt of written notice from the Trustee that recording of the Assignments is required pursuant to one or more of the conditions set forth in the preceding sentence, the Seller shall be required to deliver such Assignments for recording as provided above, promptly and in any event within 30 days following receipt of such notice. The Seller shall furnish the Trustee, or its designated agent, with a copy of each Assignment submitted for recording. In the event that any such Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect therein, the Seller shall promptly have a
substitute Assignment prepared or have such defect cured, as the case may be, and thereafter cause each such Assignment to be duly recorded.
To the extent an Assignment referred to in clause (c)(iii) above is required to be recorded (including, without limitation, Assignments for states which are not covered by the Opinion of Counsel in the prior paragraph), the Seller at its own expense shall complete and submit it for recording in the appropriate public office for real property records, with such Assignment completed in favor of the Trustee. While such Assignment to be recorded is being recorded, the Trustee shall retain a photocopy of such Assignment. If any Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded to the Trustee because of any defect therein, the Seller is required to prepare a substitute Assignment or cure such defect, as the case may be, and the Seller shall cause such substitute Assignment to be recorded in accordance with this paragraph.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.1, in those instances where the public recording office retains the original Mortgage after it has been recorded, the Seller shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligations hereunder upon delivery to the Trustee of a copy of such Mortgage certified by the public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the recorded original thereof.
If any Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded to the Trustee because of any defect therein, the Seller shall prepare a substitute Assignment or cure such defect, as the case may be, and the Seller shall cause such Assignment to be recorded in accordance with this Section 2.1.
If a defect in any Mortgage File is discovered which materially and adversely affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan, or the interests of the Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, including if any document required to be delivered to the Trustee has not been delivered (provided that a Mortgage File will not be deemed to contain a defect for an unrecorded Assignment under clause (c) (iii) above if the Seller has submitted such Assignment for recording pursuant to the terms of the following paragraph), the Seller shall either (i) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price within 90 days after the date on which the Seller was notified of such defect; provided, that if such defect would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a “qualified mortgage” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure or repurchase must occur within 90 days from the date such breach was discovered, or cure such defect, or (ii) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for the related Mortgage Loan upon the same terms and conditions set forth in Section 3.1 hereof for substitutions.
The Seller shall exercise its best reasonable efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee within 120 days of the Closing Date, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, the original or a photocopy of the title insurance policy with respect to each such Mortgage Loan assigned to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 2.1.
In connection with the assignment of any Mortgage Loan registered on the MERS® System, the Seller further agrees that it will cause, at the Seller’s own expense, as of the Closing Date, the MERS® System to indicate that such Mortgage Loans have been assigned by the 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 (a) the code in the field which identifies the specific Trustee and (b) the code in the field “Pool Field” which identifies the series of the Certificates issued in connection with such Mortgage Loans. The Seller and the Purchaser further agree that they will not, and will not permit the Master Servicer to, alter the codes referenced in this paragraph with respect to any Mortgage Loan during the term of this Agreement unless and until such Mortgage Loan is repurchased in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
The Purchaser hereby acknowledges its acceptance of all right, title and interest to the Mortgage Loans and other property, now existing and hereafter created, conveyed to it pursuant to this Section 2.1, other than with respect to servicing rights with respect to the Mortgage Loans. In addition to the foregoing, on the Closing Date the Seller assigns to the Purchaser all of its right, title and interest in the Servicing Agreements.
(d) The parties hereto intend that the transaction set forth herein constitutes a sale by the Seller to the Purchaser of all the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans (other than with respect to the related servicing rights) and other property as and to the extent described above. In the event the transaction set forth herein is deemed not to be a sale, the Seller hereby grants to the Purchaser a security interest in (i) all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans (other than with respect to the related servicing rights), (ii) all of Seller’s interest in any insurance policies and (iii) all proceeds of the foregoing and such other property, to secure all of the Seller’s obligations hereunder, and this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. The Seller agrees to take or cause to be taken such actions and to execute such documents, including without limitation the filing of all necessary UCC-1 financing statements filed in the State of Delaware (which shall have been submitted for filing as of the Closing Date with respect to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans), any continuation statements with respect thereto and any amendments thereto required to reflect a change in the name or corporate structure of the Seller or the filing of any additional UCC-1 financing statements due to the change in the principal office of the Seller, as are necessary to perfect and protect the Purchaser’s interests in each Mortgage Loan and the proceeds thereof.
|
|
Section 2.02 |
Payment of Purchase Price for the Mortgage Loans. |
(a) The purchase price for the Mortgage Loans (other than with respect to the servicing rights thereto) shall be the sum of (1) $937,114,436.60 and (2) a 100% Percentage Interest in the Class P, Class C and Class R Certificates.
(b) In consideration of the sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the Purchaser on the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall (1) pay to the Seller on the Closing Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated by the Seller, the amount specified above in clause (a)(1) and (2) cause the transfer to the Seller of the Certificates in clause (a)(2).

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 3.1 shall survive the sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the Purchaser and shall inure to the benefit of the Purchaser, its successors and assigns, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on any Mortgage Note or assignment of Mortgage or the examination of any Mortgage File. It is understood by the parties hereto that a breach of the representations and warranties made Section 3.1(b) (xxxii), (xxxiii), (xxxiv), (xxxv), (xxxvi), (xxxvii), (xxxviii) and (xlv) will be deemed to materially and adversely affect the value of the related Mortgage Loan or the interest of the Purchaser.
Upon discovery or receipt of notice by the Seller, the Purchaser or the Trustee of a breach of any representation or warranty of the Seller set forth in clause (b) above which breach materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loans or the interests of the Purchaser, the Certificateholders or the Trustee in any of the Mortgage Loans delivered to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, the party discovering or receiving notice of such breach shall give prompt written notice to the others. In the case of any such breach of a representation
or warranty set forth in clause (b) above, the Seller shall, within 90 days from the date that the Seller was notified or otherwise obtained knowledge of such breach, either (i) cure such breach in all material respects or (ii) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price; provided that if such breach would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a “qualified mortgage” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure or repurchase must occur within 90 days from the date such breach was discovered; and provided, further, that (A) in the case of a breach of the representation and warranty concerning the Mortgage Loan Schedule contained in clause (b)(i), if such breach relates to any field on the Mortgage Loan Schedule which identifies any Prepayment Charge or (B) in the case of a breach of representation (xxxvi) or the unenforceability of any Prepayment Charge due to subsequent changes in law, then, in each case, in lieu of purchasing such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price, the Seller shall pay the amount of the Prepayment Charge (net of any amount previously collected by or paid to the Trust Fund in respect of such Prepayment Charge), and the Seller shall have no right to repurchase (or, as detailed below, substitute for) such Mortgage Loan. However, subject to the approval of the Purchaser and except as specified above, the Seller shall have the option to substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans for such Mortgage Loan if such substitution occurs within two years following the Closing Date, except that if the breach would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a “qualified mortgage” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such substitution must occur within 90 days from the date the breach was discovered if such 90 day period expires before two years following the Closing Date. If the breach of representation and warranty that gave rise to the obligation to repurchase or substitute a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.1 was the representation set forth in clause (xxxii), (xxxiii), (xxxiv), (xxxv), (xxxvi), (xxxvii), (xxxviii) or (xlv) of this Section 3.1(b), then the Seller shall pay to the Trust Fund, concurrently with and in addition to the remedies provided in the third preceding sentence, an amount equal to any liability, penalty or the expense that was actually incurred and paid out of or on behalf of the Trust Fund, and that directly resulted from such breach, or if incurred and paid by the Trust Fund thereafter, concurrently with such payment. The obligations of the Seller to cure, purchase or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall constitute the Purchaser’s, the Trustee’s and the Certificateholders’ sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement or otherwise respecting a breach of representations or warranties hereunder with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
In the event that the Seller elects to substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans for a Deleted Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.1(b), the Seller shall deliver to the Trustee and the Master Servicer, as appropriate, with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the original Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, an Assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form, and such other documents and agreements as are required by Section 2.1, with the Mortgage Note endorsed as required by Section 2.1. No substitution will be made in any calendar month after the Determination Date for such month. Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution, to the extent received by the Master Servicer, will be retained by the Master Servicer and remitted by the Master Servicer to the Seller on the next succeeding Distribution Date. After the month of substitution, the Seller shall be entitled to retain all amounts received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. Upon such substitution, the Mortgage Loan Schedule shall be amended to reflect the addition of the Qualified Substituted Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects, and the Seller shall be deemed to have made the non-statistical representations and
warranties with respect to the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan contained in Section 3.1(b) as of the date of substitution.
In connection with the substitution of one or more Qualified 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 such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans (in each case after application of the principal portion of the Monthly Payments due in the month of substitution that are to be distributed to Certificateholders in the month of substitution). The Seller shall provide the Master Servicer on the day of substitution for immediate deposit into the Custodial Account the amount of such shortfall, without any reimbursement therefor. The Seller shall give notice in writing to the Trustee of such event, which notice shall be accompanied by an Officer’s Certificate as to the calculation of such shortfall and by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution will not cause (a) any federal tax to be imposed on any REMIC created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, including without limitation, any federal tax imposed on “prohibited transactions” under Section 860F(a)(1) of the Code or on “contributions after the startup date” under Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code or (b) any portion of any REMIC created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding. The costs of any substitution as described above, including any related assignments, opinions or other documentation in connection therewith shall be borne by the Seller.
Any cause of action against the Seller or relating to or arising out of a breach by the Seller of any representations and warranties made in clause (b) above shall accrue as to any Mortgage Loan upon (i) discovery of such breach by the Seller or notice thereof by the party discovering such breach and (ii) failure by the Seller to cure such breach, purchase such Mortgage Loan or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms hereof.
Section 3.02 The Purchaser’s Representations and Warranties. The Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Seller as of the Closing Date (or if otherwise specified below, as of the date so specified) that:

(d) the execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby do not require the consent or approval of, the giving of notice to, the registration with, or the taking of any other action in respect of, any state, federal or other governmental authority or agency, except those consents, approvals, notices, registrations or other actions as have already been obtained, given or made and, in connection with the recordation of the Mortgages, powers of attorney or assignments of Mortgages not yet completed;
(e) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Purchaser and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Purchaser, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser enforceable against it in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy and insolvency laws and other similar laws affecting the enforcement of the rights of creditors generally); and
(f) except as previously disclosed to the Purchaser in the Prospectus Supplement, there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the best of the Purchaser’s knowledge, threatened against the Purchaser, before or by any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body (i) with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (ii) with respect to any other matter which in the judgment of the Purchaser if determined adversely to the Purchaser or would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the Purchaser’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement; and the Purchaser is not in default with respect to any order of any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body so as to materially and adversely affect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 7.09 Intention of the Parties. It is the intention of the parties that the Purchaser is purchasing, and the Seller is selling, the Mortgage Loans (other than the servicing rights with respect thereto), rather than a loan by the Purchaser to the Seller secured by the Mortgage Loans.

MORTGAGE LOAN SCHEDULE
EXHIBIT 2
REVISED February 07, 0000
XXXXXXXX X – Standard & Poor’s Anti-Predatory Lending Categorization
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.
