Code.
19. The parties hereto acknowledge that references to the "Owner" in the second

Disposition of REO Property) is hereby amended by (i) adding the following
sentences at the end of such Section:
Prior to acceptance by the Servicer of an offer to sell any REO
Property, the Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer of such offer
in writing, which notification shall set forth all material terms of
said offer (each a "Notice of Sale"). The Master Servicer shall be
deemed to have approved the sale of any REO Property unless the Master
Servicer notifies the Servicer in writing, within five (5) days after
its receipt of the related Notice of Sale, that it disapproves of the
related sale, in which case the Servicer shall not proceed with such
sale.
and (ii) adding two new paragraphs after the second paragraph thereof to
read as follows:
In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any REO Property in
connection with a
A-6
default or imminent default on a Mortgage 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 Trust Fund
unless the Servicer has applied for and received a grant of extension
from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that, under the REMIC
Provisions and any relevant proposed legislation and under applicable
state law, the applicable Trust REMIC 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, 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 Trust Fund 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 Trustee shall sign any
document or take any other action reasonably requested by the Servicer
which would enable the Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, to
request such grant of extension.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no REO
Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed to
continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Trust
Fund 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
Trust REMIC 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 the Trust Fund with respect
to the imposition of any such taxes.
23. Section 4.02 (Statements to Owner) is hereby amended in its entirety to
read as follows:
4.02 Statements to the Master Servicer.
(a) Not later than the tenth calendar day of each month or, if
such calendar day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding
Business Day, the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer: (i) a

hereto and a monthly defaulted loan report in the format set forth in

ending on the last
A-7
calendar day of the preceding month and (ii) all such information
required pursuant to clause (i) above on a magnetic tape or other
similar media reasonably accepted by the Master Servicer to the extent
such information may be obtained from the Servicer's electronic
servicing system.
(b) Beginning with calendar year 2005, the Servicer shall prepare
and file any and all tax returns, information statements or other
filings for the portion of the tax year 2004 and the portion of
subsequent tax years for which the Servicer has serviced some or all
of the Mortgage Loans hereunder as such returns, information
statements or other filings are required to be delivered to any
governmental taxing authority or to the Master Servicer pursuant to
any applicable law with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the
transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, the Servicer shall
provide the Master Servicer with such information concerning the
Mortgage Loans as is necessary for the Master Servicer to prepare the
Trust Fund's federal income tax return as the Master Servicer may
reasonably request from time to time.
(c) The Monthly Remittance Advice shall also include on a current
and cumulative basis the amount of any (i) claims filed, (ii) claim
payments made, (iii) claims denied and (iv) policies cancelled with
respect to those Serviced Mortgage Loans covered by any PMI Policy or
LPMI Policy.
24. Section 4.03 (Monthly Advances by Servicer) is hereby amended by adding the
following new sentence immediately following the first sentence of such
section:
Any amounts held for future distribution and so used to make Monthly
Advances 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 payments
to the Trust Fund required to be made on such Remittance Date.
25. Section 5.01 (Servicing Compensation) is hereby amended by adding the
following sentence at the end of such Section:
The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in
connection with its servicing activities hereunder and shall not be
entitled to reimbursement thereof except as specifically provided for
herein.
26. Section 5.06 (Annual Independent Public Accountants' Servicing Report) is
hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
Section 5.06 Annual Audit Report.
On or before the last day of February of each year, beginning with
February 28, 2005, the Servicer shall, at its own expense, cause a
firm of independent public accountants (who may also render other
services to Servicer), which is a member of the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants, to furnish to the Seller
A-8

the basis of such examination conducted substantially in compliance
with the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers, such
firm is of the opinion that Servicer's overall servicing operations
have been conducted in compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation
Program for Mortgage Bankers except for such exceptions that, in the
opinion of such firm, the Uniform Single Attestation Program for
Mortgage Bankers requires it to report, in which case such exceptions
shall be set forth in such statement.
27. A new Section 5.07 is hereby added to the Master Servicing Agreement to
read as follows:
Section 5.07 Annual Officer's Certificate.
On or before the last day of February of each year, beginning
with February 28, 2005, the Servicer, at its own expense, will deliver
to the Seller and the Master Servicer a Servicing Officer's
certificate stating, as to each signer thereof, that (i) a review of
the activities of the Servicer during such preceding fiscal year and
of performance under this Agreement has been made under such officers'
supervision and (ii) to the best of such officers' knowledge, based on
such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this
Agreement for such year, or, if there has been a default in the
fulfillment of all such obligations, specifying each such default
known to such officer and the nature and status thereof including the
steps being taken by the Servicer to remedy such default.
28. A new Section 5.08 is hereby added to the Master Servicing Agreement to
read as follows:

not required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
with respect to the related securitization transaction for the prior
calendar year, then (i) the Depositor shall notify the Seller of that
fact and (ii) the Seller shall not be required to provide the
Officer's Certificate described in this subsection (a).
A-9
29. The second, third and fourth paragraphs of Section 6.02 (Remedies for
Breach of Representations and Warranties of the Servicer) are hereby
restated to read as follows:
Within 60 days of the earlier of either discovery by or notice to
the Servicer of any breach of a representation or warranty set forth
in Section 6.01 which materially and adversely affects the ability of
the Servicer to perform its duties and obligations under this
Agreement or otherwise materially and adversely affects the value of
the Mortgage 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
Trustee's option, assign the Servicer's rights and obligations under
this Agreement (or respecting the affected Mortgage Loans) to a
successor Servicer selected by the Trustee with the prior consent and
approval of the Master Servicer. Such assignment shall be made in
accordance with Section 10.01.
In addition, the Servicer shall indemnify (from its own funds)
the Trustee, the Trust Fund and the Master Servicer 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 Master
Servicer, the Trust Fund and the Trustee 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 Trustee or Master Servicer 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
Trustee or the Master Servicer for compliance with this Agreement.
30. The parties hereto acknowledge that Section 6.03 (Representations and
Warranties of the Owner), Section 6.04 (Remedies for Breach of
Representations and Warranties of Owner) Section 7.01 (Removal of Mortgage
Loans from Inclusion Under the Agreement Upon a Pass-Through Transfer or a
Whole Loan Transfer on One or More Reconstitution Dates) and Section 7.02
(Owner's Repurchase and Indemnification Obligations) are inapplicable to
this Agreement.
31. Section 7.03 (Indemnification; Third Party Claims) is hereby amended in its
entirety to read as follows:
The Servicer shall indemnify the Trust Fund, the Trustee and the
Master Servicer and hold each of them harmless against any and all
claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and
necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs,
fees and expenses that any of such parties may sustain in any way
related to the failure of the Servicer to perform its
A-10
duties and service the Mortgage Loans in strict compliance with the
terms of this Agreement. The Servicer immediately shall notify the
Seller, the Master Servicer and the Trustee or any other relevant
party if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this
Agreement or the Mortgage 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, and
promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may
be entered against it or any of such parties in respect of such claim.
The Servicer shall follow any written instructions received from the
Trustee in connection with such claim. The Trustee from the assets of
the Trust Fund promptly shall reimburse the Servicer 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 to service and
administer the Mortgage Loans in strict compliance with the terms of
this Agreement.
The Trust Fund shall indemnify the Servicer and hold it harmless
against any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs,
judgments and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Servicer may
sustain in any way related to the failure of the Trustee or the Master
Servicer to perform its duties in 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 attorney's fees and other costs and expenses related to the
adjudication of said dispute.
32. Section 8.02 (Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others) is hereby
amended by changing the word "Owner" to "Trustee" where it appears in the
proviso to the third sentence thereof and the word "Owner" to "Trust Fund"
in the fourth sentence of such Section.
33. The first paragraph of Section 8.03 (Limitation on Resignation and
Assignment by Servicer) is hereby amended in its entirety to read as
follows:
The Servicer shall neither assign this Agreement or the servicing
hereunder or delegate its rights or duties hereunder or any portion
hereof (to other than a third party in the case of outsourcing routine
tasks such as taxes, insurance and property inspection, in which case
the Servicer shall be fully liable for such tasks as if the Servicer
performed them itself) or sell or otherwise dispose of all or
substantially all of its property or assets without the prior written
consent of the Trustee and the Master Servicer, which consent shall be
granted or withheld in the reasonable discretion of such parties,
provided, however, that the Servicer may assign its rights and
obligations hereunder without prior written consent of the Trustee and
the Master Servicer to any entity that is directly owned or controlled
A-11
by the Servicer, and the Servicer guarantees the performance of such
entity hereunder. In the event of such assignment by the Servicer, the
Servicer shall provide the Trustee and the Master Servicer with a
written statement guaranteeing the successor entity's performance of
the Servicer's obligations under the Agreement.
References to "Owner" in the second and third paragraphs of Section 8.03
shall refer to the "Master Servicer acting at the direction, or with the prior
consent of, the Trustee".
34. Section 9.01 is hereby amended by changing the references to "Owner" in the
second and third paragraph of such section to "Master Servicer."
35. Section 9.02 (Termination Without Cause) is hereby amended in its entirety
to read as follows:
Section 9.02 Termination Without Cause.
This Agreement shall terminate upon: (i) the later of(a) the
distribution of the final payment or liquidation proceeds on the last
Mortgage Loan to the Owner (or advances by the Servicer for the same)
and (b) the disposition of all REO Property acquired upon foreclosure
of the last Mortgage Loan and the remittance of all funds due
hereunder, or (ii) mutual consent of the Servicer, the Seller and the
Master Servicer in writing or (iii) at the sole option of the Seller,
without cause, upon 30 days written notice. Any such notice of
termination shall be in writing and delivered to the Servicer by
registered mail to the address set forth at the beginning of this
Agreement. The Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Servicer shall
comply with the termination procedures set forth in Section 9.01
hereof and the procedures set forth below, provided that, in the event
the Seller terminates this Agreement without cause in accordance with
subclause (iii) above, the Seller shall pay the Servicer a termination
fee equal to 2.0% of the aggregate unpaid balance of the Mortgage
Loans as of such termination date.
In connection with any such termination referred to in clause (ii) or
(iii) above, the Seller will be responsible for reimbursing the
Servicer for all unreimbursed out-of-pocket Servicing Advances within
15 Business Days following the date of termination and other
reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket costs associated with any
transfer of servicing.
Notwithstanding and in addition to the foregoing, in the event that
(i) a Mortgage Loan becomes delinquent for a period of 90 days or more
(a "Delinquent Mortgage Loan") or (ii) a Mortgage Loan becomes an REO
Property, the Seller may at its election terminate this Agreement (a)
with respect to such Delinquent Mortgage Loan or (b) REO Property, in
each case, upon 15 days' written notice to the Servicer. In the event
of such election, the Seller shall reimburse the Servicer for all
unreimbursed out-of-pocket Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances on
the date of termination and other reasonable and necessary
out-of-pocket costs associated with any transfer of servicing,
including, but not limited to, costs
A-12
associated with the transfer of the related files to the Owner's
designee.
36. Section 10.01 (Successor to the Servicer) is hereby amended in its entirety
to read as follows:
Simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer's
responsibilities and duties under this Agreement (a) pursuant to
Sections 6.02, 7.03, 8.03, 9.01 or 9.02, the Master Servicer shall, in
accordance with the provisions of the Trust Agreement (i) succeed to
and assume all of the Servicer's responsibilities, rights, duties and
obligations under this Agreement or (ii) appoint a successor servicer
meeting the eligibility requirements of this Agreement set forth in
Sections 8.01(i) and (ii) and which shall succeed to all rights and
assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the
Servicer under this Agreement with the termination of the Servicer's
responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement. Any
successor to the Servicer that is not at that time a servicer of other
mortgage loans for the Trust Fund shall be subject to the approval of
the Master Servicer, the Seller, the Trustee and each Rating Agency
(as such term is defined in the Trust Agreement). Unless the successor
servicer is at that time a servicer of other mortgage loans for the
Trust Fund, each Rating Agency must deliver to the Trustee a letter 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 Depositor, as applicable, may
make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of
payments on the Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree;
provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of
that permitted the Servicer 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
shall be appointed pursuant to this Section 10.01 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
under Sections 6.02 and 7.03, it being understood and agreed that the
provisions of such Sections 6.01, 6.02 and 7.03 shall be applicable to
the Servicer notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of
the Servicer, or the termination of this Agreement.
Within a reasonable period of time, but in no event longer than
30 days of 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. The Servicer shall cooperate with the Trustee and the
Master
A-13
Servicer, 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 any Escrow
Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
Any successor appointed as provided herein shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Trustee, the Servicer and the Master
Servicer an instrument (i) accepting such appointment, wherein the
successor shall make the representations and warranties set forth in
Section 6.01 and (ii) assuming 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 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 9.01 and 9.02 shall not affect any
claims that the Master Servicer 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.
The Servicer shall deliver (i) within three (3) Business Days to
the successor servicer the funds in the Custodial Account and Escrow
Account and (ii) within 30 Business Days all Mortgage 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 and Master Servicer of such
appointment in accordance with the notice procedures set forth herein.
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all reasonable
costs and expenses incurred in connection with any transfer of
servicing hereunder as a result of a termination of the Servicer for
cause pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Agreement, including, without
limitation, the costs and expenses of the Master Servicer or any other
Person in appointing a successor servicer, or of the Master Servicer
in assuming the responsibilities of the Servicer hereunder, or of
transferring the Servicing Files and the other necessary data to the
successor servicer shall be paid by the terminated, removed or
resigning servicer from its own funds without reimbursement.
37. The parties hereto acknowledge that Section 10.02 (Closing), Section 10.03
(Closing Documents), Section 10.07 (Notices) and Section 10.16 (Exhibits)
are inapplicable to this Agreement.
A-14
38. A new Section 10.19 is hereby added to the Master Servicing Agreement to
read as follows:
Section 10.19 Intended Third Party Beneficiaries.
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the parties
to this Agreement agree that it is appropriate, in furtherance of the
intent of such parties as set forth herein, that the Master Servicer
and the Trustee receive the benefit of the provisions of this
Agreement as intended third party beneficiaries of this Agreement to
the extent of such provisions. The Servicer shall have the same
obligations to the Master Servicer and the Trustee as if they were
parties to this Agreement, and the Master Servicer and the Trustee
shall have the same rights and remedies to enforce the provisions of
this Agreement as if they were parties to this Agreement. The Servicer
shall only take direction from the Master Servicer (if direction by
the Master Servicer is required under this Agreement) unless otherwise
directed by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all rights
and obligations of the Master Servicer and the Trustee hereunder
(other than the right to indemnification) shall terminate upon
termination of the Trust Agreement and of the Trust Fund pursuant to
the Trust Agreement.
