1. The
Assignor hereby grants, transfers and assigns to the Assignee all of the right,
title, interest and obligations of Assignor, as Purchaser, in, to and under
the
Mortgage Loans, the GSMC Assignment Agreement and the Sale Agreement, but only
to the extent relating to the Mortgage Loans (other than the rights of the

Agreement, and the Assignee hereby assumes all of the Assignor’s obligations
under the Servicing Agreement and the Sale Agreement, but only to the extent
relating to the Mortgage Loans that arise only on and after the date
hereof;
provided,
however,
it is understood and agreed upon by the parties hereto, that the Assignee shall
not be liable for (i) any breach of any obligation or representation of the
Assignor pursuant to the GSMC Assignment Agreement or (ii) any breach of any
obligation, covenant, representation or warranty of the Assignor, or be
responsible for any indemnification amounts owed by the Assignor, pursuant
to
the Sale Agreement, the Servicing Agreement or the GSMC Assignment Agreement
arising prior to the
date
hereof.
The Assignor shall remain liable for all such liability arising prior to
the
date
hereof
and for its own actions and omissions apart from those assumed by the
Assignee.
The
Assignor represents and warrants to the Assignee that the Assignor has not
taken
any action which would serve to impair or encumber the Assignor’s ownership
interest in the Mortgage Loans since the date of the Sale
Agreement.
The
Servicer and the Assignor shall have the right to amend, modify or terminate
the
Servicing Agreement without the joinder of the Assignee with respect to mortgage
loans not conveyed to the Assignee hereunder to the extent permitted by such
Servicing Agreement, provided,
however,
that
such amendment, modification or termination shall not affect or be binding
on
the Assignee.
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the Servicing Agreement, in the event the Servicer
is obligated to make an advance pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, the
aggregate payment due shall be the minimum monthly payment due under the
mortgage note, net of servicing fees.
2. From
and
after the date hereof, the Servicer shall note the transfer of the Mortgage
Loans to the Assignee in its books and records, shall recognize the Assignee
as
the owner of the Mortgage Loans and shall service the Mortgage Loans for the
benefit of the Assignee pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, the terms of which
are incorporated herein by reference. It is the intention of the Assignor,
Servicer and Assignee that the Servicing Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the Servicer and the Assignee and their permitted
successors and assigns.

The
Servicer represents and warrants to the Assignee that (a) the Servicing

except as provided herein or in the Servicer Assignment Agreement, nor have
any
notices of termination been given thereunder and (c) the Servicer is
servicing each Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms of the Servicing
Agreement.
The
Servicer further acknowledges that, from and after the date hereof, it (and
any
of its successors under the Servicing Agreement) will be subject to the

of
the Assignee as the owner of the Mortgage Loans, shall have the same rights
and
obligations as were assigned by GSMC, in its capacity as the original “Owner”
under the Servicing Agreement, to the Assignor under the GSMC Assignment
Agreement, and further assigned hereunder by the Assignor to the Assignee,
on
behalf of the trust formed pursuant to the Trust Agreement. Such rights that

terminate the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement upon the occurrence of
an
event of default thereunder, the right to receive all remittances required
to be
made by the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, the right to receive all

and hold harmless the Master Servicer, the Assignor and the Assignee against
any
losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, judgments and any related costs
including, without limitation, reasonable and necessary legal fees, resulting
from (i) actions or inactions of the Servicer which were taken or omitted upon
the instruction or direction of the Master Servicer or Assignee, as applicable,
or (ii) the failure of the Master Servicer or the Assignee, as applicable,
to
perform the obligations of the Assignee with respect to the Assignment Agreement
or of the “Owner” with respect to the servicing provisions of the Servicing
Agreement.
All
reports and other data required to be delivered by the Servicer to the “Owner”
under the Servicing Agreement shall be delivered to the Master Servicer or
the
Assignee, as designated in writing by the Assignee, at the address set forth
in
Section 9 hereof. All remittances required to be made to the Assignee, as the

(i) HOEPA.
No
Transferred Mortgage Loan is a “High Cost Loan” or “Covered Loan,” as
applicable, as such terms are defined in the then current Standard & Poor’s
LEVELSâ
Glossary. In addition, no Transferred Mortgage Loan is a “high-cost,” “high-cost
home,” “covered,” “high-risk home,” or “predatory” loan under any applicable
federal, state or local predatory or abusive lending law (or a similarly
classified loan using different terminology under a law imposing heightened
regulatory scrutiny or additional legal liability for residential mortgage
loans
having high interest rates, points and/or fees), and no Mortgage Loan originated
on or after October 1, 2002 through March 6, 2003 is governed by the Georgia
Fair Lending Act.
(j) Bring
Down.
As of
May 8, 2007, nothing has occurred or failed to occur from and after the closing
date set forth in the Sale Agreement to May 8, 2007 that would cause any of
the
representations and warranties relating to the Mortgage Loans set forth in
Section 3.02 of the Sale Agreement to be incorrect in any material respects
as
of May 8, 2007 as if made on May 8, 2007.
It
is
understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in
this
Section 6 shall survive delivery of the respective Collateral File to the
applicable Custodian and shall inure to the benefit of the Assignee and its
assigns notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement or assignment.
Upon the discovery by the Assignor or the Assignee and its assigns of a breach
of the foregoing representations and warranties, the party discovering such
breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties to this Assignment
Agreement, and in no event later than two (2) Business Days from the date of
such discovery. It is understood and agreed that the obligations of the Assignor
set forth in Section 8 hereof to repurchase a Mortgage Loan constitute the
sole remedies available to the Assignee and its assigns on their behalf
respecting a breach of the representations and warranties contained in this
Section 6. It is further understood and agreed that the Assignor shall be
deemed not to have made the representations and warranties in Section 6(j)
with respect to, and to the extent of, representations and warranties made,
as
to the matters covered in Section 6(j), by the Seller in the Sale Agreement
(or any officer’s certificate delivered pursuant thereto).
It
is
understood and agreed that the Assignor has made no representations or
warranties to the Assignee other than those contained in this Section 6,
and no other affiliate of the Assignor has made any representations or
warranties of any kind to the Assignee.

of the Servicing Agreement.
In
connection with the transfer of the Mortgage Loans hereunder, the Servicer
agrees that, from and after the date hereof, each Mortgage Loan transferred
hereunder will be subject to, and serviced under, the Servicing Agreement,
provided that,
solely
with respect to the Mortgage Loans transferred hereunder, the following
modifications shall be made:
(i) The
definition of Business Day is hereby amended by adding the words “Maryland,
Minnesota” after the words “New York”.
-8-
(ii) Section
4.1(b) of the Servicing Agreement shall be deleted and replaced in its entirety
with the following:
“(b) With
respect to any remittance to the Owner made by the Servicer after the day on
which such remittance was due, the Servicer shall pay to the Owner interest
on
such late remittance at an annual rate equal to Prime, 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
remittance is made and shall cover the period commencing with the date on which
such remittance was due and ending with the Business Day on which such late
remittance is made, both inclusive. Such interest shall be remitted along with
such late remittance. 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 Servicer.”
(iii) Section
7.1 of the Servicing Agreement shall be amended by adding the following:
“(ix)
failure by the Servicer to duly perform, within the required time period, its
obligations under Article 5 (other than Section 5.4, 5.5, 5.6), which failure
continues unremedied for a period of ten 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 or by any master
servicer responsible for master servicing the Mortgage Loans pursuant to a
securitization of such Mortgage Loans.”
(iv) The
first
sentence of Section 8.2(a) of the Servicing Agreement shall be deleted and
replaced in its entirety with the following:
“Upon
written notice, the Owner may, at its sole option, upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default and in accordance with Section 7.1, terminate any rights the
Servicer may have hereunder.”
(v) The
following definition shall be added to Section 1 of the Amendment Reg AB, dated
as of January 1, 2006 by and between Xxxxxxx Sachs Mortgage Corporation and
Countrywide Home Loans, Inc. (the “Amendment Reg AB”):
Master
Servicer:
With
respect to any Securitization Transaction, the “master servicer,” if any,
identified in the related transaction documents.
(vi) Section
2(e)(i)(A) of the Amendment Reg AB shall be amended and replaced as
follows:
deliver
to the Purchaser and any Depositor a report regarding the Company’s assessment
of compliance with the Servicing Criteria during the immediately preceding
calendar year, as required under Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act
and
Item 1122 of Regulation AB. Such report shall be addressed to the Purchaser
and
such Depositor and signed by an authorized officer of the Company, and shall
address each of the applicable Servicing Criteria specified on Exhibit A hereto
(wherein “Investor” shall mean the master servicer);
-9-
(vii) Section
2(e)(ii) of the Amendment Reg AB shall be amended and replaced as
follows:
Each
assessment of compliance provided by a Subservicer pursuant to Section
2(e)(i)(A) shall address each of the applicable Servicing Criteria specified
on
Exhibit A hereto (wherein “Investor” shall mean the Master Servicer) delivered
to the Purchaser concurrently with the execution of this Agreement or, in the
case of a Subservicer subsequently appointed as such, on or prior to the date
of
such appointment. An assessment of compliance provided by a Participating Entity
pursuant to Section 2(e)(i)(C) need not address any elements of the Servicing
Criteria other than those specified by the Company pursuant to Section
2(f)
(viii) Exhibit
B
of the Amendment Reg AB, dated as of January 1, 2006, by and between Xxxxxxx
Xxxxx Mortgage Corporation and Countrywide Home Loans, Inc., shall be replaced
with Exhibit I hereto.
For
the
avoidance of doubt, the Servicing Agreement is not hereby amended with respect
to any other mortgage loans serviced thereunder and shall remain in full force
and effect in accordance with its terms with respect to such other mortgage
loans.
For
purposes of this Section 7, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning
assigned to such terms in the Servicing Agreement.
8. Repurchase
of Mortgage Loans.
Upon
discovery or notice of any breach by the Assignor of any representation,
warranty or covenant under this Assignment Agreement that materially and
adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan or the interest of the Assignee
therein (it being understood that any such defect or breach shall be deemed
to
have materially and adversely affected the value of the related Mortgage Loan
or
the interest of the Assignee therein if the Assignee incurs a loss as a result
of such defect or breach), the Assignee promptly shall request that the Assignor
cure such breach and, if the Assignor does not cure such breach in all material
respects within 90 days of the earlier of either discovery by the Assignor
of
such breach or the date on which it is notified of the breach, the Assignee
may
enforce the Assignor’s obligation hereunder to purchase such Mortgage Loan from
the Assignee at the Purchase Price (as defined in the Trust Agreement).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if such breach is a Qualification Defect
(as defined in the Sale Agreement), then such cure or repurchase must take
place
within 90 days of discovery of such Qualification Defect.
In
the
event of a repurchase of any Mortgage Loan by the Assignor, the Assignee shall
promptly deliver to the Assignor or its designee the related Collateral File
and
shall assign to the Assignor all of the Assignee’s rights and obligations under
the Servicing Agreement, but only insofar as the Servicing Agreement relates
to
such Mortgage Loan.
-10-
Except
as
