the foregoing, with respect to any Distribution Date on which the following
criteria are not met, the reduction of the Class A Prepayment Percentage
described in the second through sixth sentences of this definition of Class A
Prepayment Percentage shall not be applicable with respect to such Distribution
Date. In such event, the Class A Prepayment Percentage for such Distribution
Date will be determined in accordance with the applicable provision, as set
forth in the first through fifth sentences above, which was actually used to
determine the Class A Prepayment Percentage for the Distribution Date occurring
in the July preceding such Distribution Date (it being understood that for the
purposes of the determination of the Class A Prepayment Percentage for the
current Distribution Date, the current Class A Percentage and Subordinated
Percentage shall be utilized). In addition, if on any Distribution Date, prior
to giving effect to any distributions on such Distribution Date, (i) the
Subordinated Percentage is equal to or greater than twice the Subordinated
Percentage as of the Cut-Off Date, (ii) the average outstanding principal
balance on such Distribution Date and for the preceding five Distribution Dates
of the Mortgage Loans that were delinquent 60 days or more (including for this
purpose any Mortgage Loans in foreclosure and Mortgage Loans with respect to
which the related Mortgaged Property has been acquired by the Trust Estate) does
not exceed 50% of the Class B Principal Balance and (iii)(A) prior to the
Distribution Date in August 2009, cumulative Realized Losses on the Mortgage
Loans do not exceed 20% of the Original Class B Principal Balance, then the
Class A Prepayment Percentage for such Distribution Date will equal the Class A
Percentage for such Distribution Date plus 50% of the Subordinated Percentage
for such Distribution Date or (B) on or after the Distribution Date in August
2009, cumulative Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans do not exceed 30% of the
Original Class B Principal Balance, then the Class A Prepayment Percentage for
such Distribution Date will equal the Class A Percentage for such Distribution
Date. No reduction in the Class A Prepayment Percentage referred to in the
second through sixth sentences hereof shall be applicable, with respect to any
Distribution Date if (a) the average outstanding principal balance on such
Distribution Date and for the preceding five Distribution Dates on the Mortgage
Loans that were delinquent 60 days or more (including for this purpose any
payments due with respect to Mortgage Loans in foreclosure and REO Mortgage
Loans) were greater than or equal to 50% of the current Class B Principal
Balance or (b) cumulative Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans exceed (1) 30%
of the Original Class B Principal Balance if such Distribution Date occurs
between and including August 2013 and July 2014, (2) 35% of the Original Class B
Principal Balance if such Distribution Date occurs between and including August
2014 and July 2015, (3) 40% of the Original Class B Principal Balance if such
Distribution Date occurs between and including August 2015 and July 2016, (4)
45% of the Original Class B Principal Balance if such Distribution Date occurs
between and including August 2016 and July 2017, and (5) 50% of the Original
Class B Principal Balance, if such Distribution Date occurs during or after
August 2017. With respect to any Distribution Date on which the Class A

upon information provided by each Servicer as to the Mortgage Loans serviced by
it that the criteria set forth in the preceding sentence are met.

of the Class A-7 Certificates and, after the Principal Balance of the Class A-7

A-2 Loss Amount, Class A-3 Loss Amount, Class A-4 Loss Amount, Class A-5 Loss
Amount and Class A-6 Loss Amount exceeds the Principal Balance of the Class A-7

Class A-2 Loss Amount, Class A-3 Loss Amount, Class A-4 Loss Amount, Class A-5
Loss Amount and Class A-6 Loss Amount, in reduction of the Principal Balances of
the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-5 and Class A-6
Certificates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on any Distribution Date after the
Principal Balance of the Class A-7 Certificates has been reduced to zero in
which the Class A-2 Loss Amount exceeds the Principal Balance of the Class A-3
Certificates prior to any reduction for the Class A-3 Loss Allocation Amount,
such excess will be allocated in reduction of the Principal Balance of the Class
A-2 Certificates.

the related Mortgagor:
(i) The original recorded Mortgage with evidence of recordation

(c) If any assignment of a Mortgage to the Trustee is in the process
of being recorded on the Closing Date, the Depositor shall use its best efforts
to cause each such original recorded document or certified copy thereof to be
delivered to the Custodian promptly following its recordation, but in no event
later than one (1) year following the Closing Date. If any Mortgage has been
recorded in the name of MERS or its designee, no assignment of Mortgage in favor
of the Trustee will be required to be prepared or delivered and instead, the
Master Servicer shall enforce any obligation of the Servicers under the
Servicing Agreements to take all actions as are necessary to cause the Trust
Estate to be shown as the owner of the related Mortgage Loan on the records of
MERS for the purpose of the system of recording transfers of beneficial
ownership of mortgages maintained by MERS. The Depositor shall also cause to be
delivered to the Custodian any other original mortgage loan document included in
the Owner Mortgage Loan File if a copy thereof has been delivered. The Depositor
shall pay from its own funds, without any right of reimbursement therefor, the

reason of the failure of the Depositor to cause to be delivered to the Custodian

(except with respect to any Mortgage recorded in the name of MERS) not delivered
to the Custodian on the Closing Date.
In lieu of recording an assignment of any Mortgage the Depositor
may, deliver or cause to be delivered to the Custodian the assignment of the
Mortgage Loan to the Trustee in a form suitable for recordation, if (i) with
respect to a particular state the Trustee has received an Opinion of Counsel
acceptable to it that such recording is not required to make the assignment
effective against the parties to the Mortgage or subsequent purchasers or
encumbrances of the Mortgaged Property or (ii) the Depositor has been advised by
each Rating Agency that non-recordation in a state will not result in a
reduction of the rating assigned by that Rating Agency at the time of initial
issuance of the Certificates. Set forth on Exhibit K attached hereto is a list
of all states where recordation is required by either Rating Agency to obtain
the initial ratings of the Certificates. The Custodian may rely and shall be
protected in relying upon the information contained in such Exhibit K. In the
event that the Custodian receives notice that recording is required to protect
the right, title and interest of the Trustee in and to any such Mortgage Loan
for which recordation of an assignment has not previously been required, the
Custodian shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Custodian shall, within five
Business Days (or such other reasonable period of time mutually agreed upon by
the Custodian and the Trustee) of its receipt of such notice, deliver each
previously unrecorded assignment to the related Servicer for recordation.
(d) Except for Mortgage Notes endorsed in blank, endorsements shall

Except where assignments in blank are authorized or in the case of
any Mortgage registered in the name of MERS, assignments of any Mortgage shall
comply with the following:
HSBC BANK USA, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, AS
TRUSTEE
and its successors and assigns
(e) Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
the Depositor shall deliver the Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee, the
Master Servicer and the Custodian. The Depositor and the Master Servicer shall
provide a copy of the Mortgage Loan Schedule to any Certificateholders upon
written request made to it at the addresses set forth on Exhibit F, as the same
may be amended from time to time by written notice from such party to the other
parties hereto.
Section 2.02 Acceptance by Custodian.
Subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, pursuant to
the Custodial Agreement, the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, will declare
that it holds and will hold the documents delivered to it pursuant to Section
2.01(a) above and the other documents constituting a part of the Owner Mortgage
Loan Files or Retained Mortgage Loan Files (after the occurrence of a Document
Transfer Event) delivered to it in trust, upon the trusts herein set forth, for
the use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. Upon execution
of this Agreement, the Custodian will deliver to the Depositor and the Trustee
an initial certification in the form of Exhibit N hereto, to the effect that,
except as may be specified in a list of exceptions attached thereto, it has
received the original Mortgage Notes relating to each Mortgage Loan on the
Mortgage Loan Schedule.
The Custodian will review each Owner Mortgage Loan File within 45
days after execution of this Agreement. The Custodian will deliver no later than
30 days after completion of such review to the Depositor and the Trustee a final
certification in the form of Exhibit O hereto to the effect that, except as may
be specified in a list of exceptions attached thereto, all required documents
set forth in Section 2.01(a) have been executed and received and appear regular
on their face, and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified
in the Mortgage Loan Schedule based on a comparison of the Mortgage Loan
identifying number, Mortgagor name and street address, and in so doing the
Custodian may rely on the purported due execution and genuineness of any such
document and on the purported genuineness of any signature thereon.
If there are exceptions attached to the final certification, the
Depositor shall have a period of 60 days after the date of receipt of the final
certification within which to correct or cure any such defects. The Depositor
hereby covenants and agrees that, if any material defect is not so corrected or
cured, the Depositor will, not later than 60 days after receipt of the final
certification referred to above respecting such defect, either (i) repurchase
the related Mortgage Loan or any property acquired in respect thereof from the
Trust Estate at a price equal to the Repurchase Price or (ii) if within two
years of the Startup Day, or such other period permitted by the REMIC
Provisions, substitute for any Mortgage Loan to which such material defect
relates, a new mortgage loan (a "Substitute Mortgage Loan") having such
characteristics so that the representations and warranties of the Depositor set
forth in Section 2.03(b) hereof (other than Section 2.03(b)(i)) would not have
been incorrect had such Substitute Mortgage Loan originally been a Mortgage
Loan. In no event shall any Substitute Mortgage Loan have an unpaid principal
balance, as of the date of substitution, greater than the Scheduled Principal
Balance (reduced by the scheduled payment of principal due on the Due Date in
the month of substitution) of the Mortgage Loan for which it is substituted. In
addition, such Substitute Mortgage Loan (i) shall have a Loan-to-Value Ratio
less than or equal to and a Net Mortgage Interest Rate equal to that of the
Mortgage Loan for which it is substituted, (ii) shall have the same Gross Margin
and Index as that of the Mortgage Loan for which it is substituted and (iii)
shall have the same frequency of mortgage rate adjustment as that of the
Mortgage Loan for which it is substituted.
The Depositor shall determine the Repurchase Price or the
eligibility of any Substitute Mortgage Loan and the Trustee shall be protected
in relying on such determination.
In the case of a repurchased Mortgage Loan or property, the
Repurchase Price shall be deposited by the Depositor in the Certificate Account
maintained by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.01. In the case of a
Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Owner Mortgage Loan File (and Retained Mortgage
Loan File, if required pursuant to Section 2.01(b) hereof) relating thereto
shall be delivered to the Custodian and the Substitution Principal Amount (if
any), together with (i) interest on such Substitution Principal Amount at the
applicable Net Mortgage Interest Rate to the following Due Date of such Mortgage
Loan which is being substituted for and (ii) an amount equal to the aggregate
amount of unreimbursed Periodic Advances in respect of interest previously made
by the Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee with respect to such
Mortgage Loan, shall be deposited in the Certificate Account. The Monthly
Payment on the Substitute Mortgage Loan for the Due Date in the month of
substitution shall not be part of the Trust Estate. Upon receipt by the
Custodian of a Request for Release signed by an officer of the Depositor, the
Custodian shall release to the Depositor the Owner Mortgage Loan File (and
Retained Mortgage Loan File, if applicable) of the Mortgage Loan being removed.
The Trustee shall execute and deliver such instrument of transfer or assignment
(or, in the case of a Mortgage Loan registered in the name of MERS or its
designee, the Master Servicer shall enforce the obligation of the applicable
Servicer under the related Servicing Agreement to take all necessary action to
reflect such assignment on the records of MERS), in each case without recourse,
as shall be necessary to vest in the Depositor legal and beneficial ownership of
such substituted or repurchased Mortgage Loan or property. It is understood and
agreed that the obligation of the Depositor to substitute a new Mortgage Loan
for or repurchase any Mortgage Loan or property as to which such a material
defect in a constituent document exists shall constitute the sole remedy
respecting such defect available to the Certificateholders or the Trustee on
behalf of the Certificateholders. The failure of the Custodian to give the final
certification or the Trustee to give any notice within the required time periods
shall not affect or relieve the Depositor's obligation to repurchase any
Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.02.
The Trustee shall be responsible for enforcing the Depositor's
obligations under this Section 2.02. If the Trustee receives written notice from
the Custodian or the Master Servicer that the defect is not cured by the
Depositor within 60 days after the Trustee's notice, the Trustee shall enforce
the Depositor's obligation to repurchase such Mortgage Loan or substitute for
such Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.02. In
connection with any substitution permitted by this Section 2.02, the Master
Servicer shall verify that the unpaid principal balance and the Loan-to-Value
Ratio of the Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfy the requirements of this Section
2.02.

and binding obligation of the maker thereof, enforceable in accordance
with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy,

in complete amortization of the Mortgage Loan over a term of not more than

foreclosure proceedings are initiated;
(xxvi) If the Mortgage Loan is secured by a long-term residential
lease, (1) the lessor under the lease holds a fee simple interest in the

Glossary which is now Version 5.7, Appendix E) and no Mortgage Loan
originated on or after October 1, 2002 through March 6, 2003 is governed

substances on any Mortgaged Property; any casualty resulting from the presence
or effect of hazardous wastes or hazardous substances on, near or emanating from

liability relative to any Mortgaged Property. In addition, no representations or
warranties are made by the Depositor with respect to the absence or effect of

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties
set forth in this Section 2.03(b) shall survive delivery of the respective Owner
Mortgage Loan Files (and Retained Mortgage Loan Files, if applicable) to the
Custodian and shall inure to the benefit of the Trustee notwithstanding any
restrictive or qualified endorsement or assignment.
(c) Upon discovery by any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee or the Custodian that any of the representations and warranties made in
subsection (b) above is not accurate (referred to herein as a "breach") and,
except for a breach of the representation and warranty set forth in subsection
(b)(i), where such breach is a result of the Cut-Off Date Principal Balance of a
Mortgage Loan being greater, by $5,000 or greater, than the Cut-Off Date
Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan indicated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule,
that such breach materially and adversely affects the interests of the
Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such
breach shall give prompt written notice (not to exceed two days after discovery)
to the other parties to this Agreement and the Custodian (any Custodian being so
obligated under a Custodial Agreement). Within 60 days of the earlier of its
discovery or its receipt of notice of any such breach, the Depositor shall cure
such breach in all material respects or shall either (i) repurchase the Mortgage
Loan or any property acquired in respect thereof from the Trust Estate at a
price equal to the Repurchase Price or (ii) if within two years of the Startup
Day, or such other period permitted by the REMIC Provisions, substitute for such
Mortgage Loan in the manner described in Section 2.02. In addition to the
foregoing, if a breach of the representation set forth in clause (b)(xiii) or
(xxix) of this Section 2.03 occurs as a result of a violation of an applicable
predatory or abusive lending law, the Depositor shall reimburse the Trust for
all costs and damages including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees
and costs, incurred by the Trust as a result of the violation of such law (such
amount, the "Reimbursement Amount"). The Repurchase Price, the Substitution
Principal Amount, if any, plus accrued interest thereon and the other amounts
referred to in Section 2.02, and any Reimbursement Amount shall be deposited in
the Certificate Account. It is understood and agreed, except with respect to the
second preceding sentence, that the obligation of the Depositor to repurchase or
substitute for any Mortgage Loan or property 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, and such obligation shall survive until termination of the
Trust Estate hereunder.
The Trustee shall be responsible for enforcing the Depositor's
obligations under this Section 2.03. If the Trustee receives written notice from

Depositor within 60 days after the Trustee's notice, the Trustee shall enforce
the Depositor's obligation to repurchase such Mortgage Loan or substitute for
such Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.03. In
connection with any substitution permitted by this Section 2.03, the Master
Servicer shall verify that the unpaid principal balance and the Loan-to-Value
Ratio of the Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfy the requirements of this Section
2.03.

authorized denominations which, together with the Uncertificated Lower-Tier
Interests, evidence ownership of the entire Trust Estate.

(other than the Residual Certificate) and the Classes of Class B Certificates as
classes of "regular interests" and the Class A-R Interest as the single class of
"residual interest" in the Upper-Tier REMIC for the purposes of Code Sections

ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION OF THE TRUST ESTATE; SERVICING
OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 3.01 Certificate Account.
(a) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Certificate
Account for the deposit of funds received by the Master Servicer with respect to
the Mortgage Loans serviced by each Servicer pursuant to each of the Servicing
Agreements. Such account shall be maintained as an Eligible Account. The Master
Servicer shall give notice to each Servicer and the Depositor of the location of
the Certificate Account and of any change in the location thereof.
(b) The Master Servicer shall deposit into the Certificate Account
on the day of receipt thereof all amounts received by it from any Servicer
pursuant to any of the Servicing Agreements and amounts received from draws on
any Letters of Credit and shall, in addition, deposit into the Certificate
Account the following amounts, in the case of amounts specified in clauses (i)
and (iii), not later than the Business Day preceding the Distribution Date on
which such amounts are required to be distributed to Certificateholders and, in
the case of the amounts specified in clause (ii), not later than the Business
Day next following the day of receipt and posting by the Master Servicer:
(i) Periodic Advances pursuant to Section 3.03(a) made by the Master
Servicer or the Trustee, if any, and any amounts deemed received by the
Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.01(d);
(ii) in the case of any Mortgage Loan that is repurchased by the
Depositor pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.03, 3.08 or 9.01 or that is
auctioned by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.08, the purchase
price therefor or, where applicable, any Substitution Principal Amount and
any amounts received in respect of the interest portion of unreimbursed
Periodic Advances; and
(iii) any Compensating Interest for such Distribution Date.
(c) The Master Servicer may cause the funds in the Certificate
Account to be invested in Eligible Investments. No such Eligible Investments
will be sold or disposed of at a gain prior to maturity unless the Master
Servicer has received an Opinion of Counsel or other evidence satisfactory to it
that such sale or disposition will not cause the Trust Estate to be subject to
Prohibited Transactions Tax, otherwise subject the Trust Estate to tax, or cause
either of the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a
REMIC while any Certificates are outstanding. Any amounts deposited in the
Certificate Account prior to the Distribution Date may be invested for the
account of the Master Servicer and any investment income thereon shall be
additional compensation to the Master Servicer for services rendered under this
Agreement. The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments
shall be deposited in the Certificate Account by the Master Servicer out of its
own funds immediately as realized, without any right of reimbursement therefor
from the Trust Estate.
(d) For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer will be
deemed to have received from a Servicer on the applicable Remittance Date for
such funds all amounts deposited by such Servicer into the Custodial P&I Account
maintained in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement, if such
Custodial P&I Account is not an Eligible Account as defined in this Agreement,
to the extent such amounts are not actually received by the Master Servicer on
such Remittance Date as a result of the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or
other financial distress of the depository institution in which such Custodial
P&I Account is being held. To the extent that amounts so deemed to have been
received by the Master Servicer are subsequently remitted to the Master
Servicer, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to retain such amounts.
Section 3.02 Permitted Withdrawals from the Certificate Account.
(a) The Master Servicer may, from time to time, make withdrawals
from the Certificate Account for the following purposes (limited, in the case of
Servicer reimbursements, to cases where funds in the respective Custodial P&I
Account are not sufficient therefor):
(i) to reimburse the Master Servicer, the Trustee or any Servicer
for Periodic Advances made by the Master Servicer or the Trustee pursuant
to Section 3.03(a) or any Servicer pursuant to any Servicing Agreement
with respect to previous Distribution Dates, such right to reimbursement
pursuant to this subclause (i) being limited to amounts received on or in
respect of particular Mortgage Loans (including, for this purpose,

2.03, 3.08 or 9.01) respecting which any such Periodic Advance was made;
(ii) to reimburse any Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee
for any Periodic Advances determined in good faith to have become
Nonrecoverable Advances;

(or, in certain cases, the Depositor) for expenses incurred by it
(including taxes paid on behalf of the Trust Estate) and recoverable by or
reimbursable to it pursuant to Section 3.03(c), 6.03, the second or third
paragraphs of Section 8.06 or the third sentence of Section 8.13(a) or
pursuant to such Servicer's Servicing Agreement, provided such expenses
are "unanticipated" within the meaning of the REMIC Provisions;
(vi) to pay to the Depositor or other purchaser with respect to each
Mortgage Loan or property acquired in respect thereof that has been
repurchased or replaced pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.03, 3.08 or 9.01 or
auctioned pursuant to Section 3.08, all amounts received thereon and not
required to be distributed as of the date on which the related repurchase
or purchase price or Scheduled Principal Balance was determined;
(vii) to remit funds to the Paying Agent in the amounts and in the
manner provided for herein;
(viii) to pay to the Master Servicer any interest earned on or
investment income with respect to funds in the Certificate Account;
(ix) to pay to the Master Servicer or any Servicer out of
Liquidation Proceeds allocable to interest the amount of any unpaid Master
Servicing Fee or Servicing Fee (as adjusted pursuant to the related
Servicing Agreement) and any unpaid assumption fees, late payment charges
or other Mortgagor charges on the related Mortgage Loan;
(x) to pay to the Master Servicer as additional master servicing
compensation any Liquidation Profits which a Servicer is not entitled to
pursuant to the applicable Servicing Agreement;
(xi) to withdraw from the Certificate Account any amount deposited
in the Certificate Account that was not required to be deposited therein;
and
(xii) to clear and terminate the Certificate Account pursuant to
Section 9.01.
(b) The Master Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting,
on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any
payment to and withdrawal from the Certificate Account. The Master Servicer
shall notify the Depositor and the Trustee of the amount, purpose and party paid
pursuant to Section 3.02(a)(v).
Section 3.03 Advances by Master Servicer and Trustee.
(a) In the event an Other Servicer fails to make any required
Periodic Advances of principal and interest on a Mortgage Loan as required by
the related Other Servicing Agreement prior to the Business Day preceding the
Distribution Date occurring in the month during which such Periodic Advance is
due, the Master Servicer shall make Periodic Advances to the extent provided
hereby. In the event Xxxxx Fargo Bank in its capacity as Servicer fails to make
any required Periodic Advances of principal and interest on a Mortgage Loan as
required by the Xxxxx Fargo Bank Servicing Agreement prior to the Business Day
preceding the Distribution Date occurring in the month during which such
Periodic Advance is due, the Trustee shall, to the extent required by Section
8.14, make such Periodic Advance to the extent provided hereby, provided that
the Trustee has previously received the certificate of the Master Servicer
described in the following sentence. The Master Servicer shall certify to the
Trustee with respect to any such Distribution Date (i) the amount of Periodic
Advances required of Xxxxx Fargo Bank in its capacity as Servicer or such Other
Servicer, as the case may be, (ii) the amount actually advanced by Xxxxx Fargo
Bank in its capacity as Servicer or such Other Servicer, (iii) the amount that
the Trustee or Master Servicer is required to advance hereunder and (iv) whether
the Master Servicer has determined that it reasonably believes that such
Periodic Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance. Amounts advanced by the Trustee or
Master Servicer shall be deposited in the Certificate Account on the Business
Day preceding the related Distribution Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee will be obligated to make a Periodic
Advance that it reasonably believes to be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The Trustee
may conclusively rely for any determination to be made by it hereunder upon the
determination of the Master Servicer as set forth in its certificate.
(a) To the extent an Other Servicer fails to make an advance on
account of the taxes or insurance premiums with respect to a Mortgage Loan
required pursuant to the related Other Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer
shall, if the Master Servicer has actual knowledge of such failure of the
Servicer, advance such funds and take such steps as are necessary to pay such
taxes or insurance premiums. To the extent Xxxxx Fargo Bank in its capacity as
Servicer fails to make an advance on account of the taxes or insurance premiums
with respect to a Mortgage Loan required pursuant to the Xxxxx Fargo Bank
Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall, if the Master Servicer knows of
such failure of Xxxxx Fargo Bank in its capacity as Servicer, certify to the
Trustee that such failure has occurred. Upon receipt of such certification, the
Trustee shall advance such funds and take such steps as are necessary to pay
such taxes or insurance premiums.
(b) The Master Servicer and the Trustee shall each be entitled to be
reimbursed from the Certificate Account for any Periodic Advance made by it
under Section 3.03(a) to the extent described in Section 3.02(a)(i) and (a)(ii).
The Master Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed pursuant
to Section 3.02(a)(v) for any advance by it pursuant to Section 3.03(b). The
Master Servicer shall diligently pursue restoration of such amount to the
Certificate Account from the related Servicer. The Master Servicer shall, to the
extent it has not already done so, upon the request of the Trustee, withdraw
from the Certificate Account and remit to the Trustee any amounts to which the
Trustee is entitled as reimbursement pursuant to Section 3.02 (a)(i), (ii) and
(v).
(c) Except as provided in Section 3.03(a) and (b), neither the
Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall be required to pay or advance any amount
which any Servicer was required, but failed, to deposit in the Certificate
Account.
Section 3.04 Custodian to Cooperate;
Release of Owner Mortgage Loan Files and Retained
Mortgage Loan Files.
In connection with the deposit by a Servicer into the Certificate
Account of the proceeds from a Liquidated Loan or of a Prepayment in Full, the
Master Servicer or applicable Servicer shall confirm that all amounts required
to be remitted to the Certificate Account in connection with such Mortgage Loan
have been so deposited, and the Master Servicer or applicable Servicer shall
deliver two copies of any related Request for Release to the Custodian. The
Custodian shall, within five Business Days of its receipt of such a Request for
Release, release the related Owner Mortgage Loan File (and Retained Mortgage
Loan File, if applicable) to the Master Servicer or such Servicer, as requested
by the Master Servicer or such Servicer. No expenses incurred in connection with
any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to
the Certificate Account.
From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including but not limited to, collection under
any insurance policies, or to effect a partial release of any Mortgaged Property
from the lien of the Mortgage, the Servicer of such Mortgage Loan shall deliver
to the Master Servicer or Custodian two copies of a Request for Release. Upon
the Master Servicer's receipt of any such Request for Release, the Master
Servicer shall promptly forward such request in hard copy or in electronic
format acceptable to the Custodian. The Custodian shall, within five Business
Days, release the related Owner Mortgage Loan File (and Retained Mortgage Loan
File, if applicable) to the Master Servicer or such Servicer. Any such Request
for Release shall obligate the Master Servicer or such Servicer, as the case may
be, to return the Owner Mortgage Loan File (and Retained Mortgage Loan File, if
applicable) to the Custodian by the sixtieth day following the release thereof,
unless (i) the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds
relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Certificate Account or
(ii) the Owner Mortgage Loan File (and Retained Mortgage Loan File, if
applicable) 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. Upon receipt of two
copies of a Request for Release stating that such Mortgage Loan was liquidated
and that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such
liquidation which are required to be deposited into the Certificate Account have
been so deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Mortgage Loan,
the Custodian shall amend its records.
Upon the occurrence of the event specified in clause (ii) of the
preceding paragraph, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Master
Servicer or such Servicer, as directed by the Master Servicer, court pleadings,
requests for trustee's sale or other documents necessary to the foreclosure or
trustee's sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought
to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or to
obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights
provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in
equity. Each such certification shall include a request that such pleadings or
documents be executed by the Trustee and a statement as to the reason such
documents or pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof
by the Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage,
except for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure
proceeding or trustee's sale.
Section 3.05 Annual Compliance Statements.
The Master Servicer shall deliver in electronic form, or otherwise
make available to the Depositor and the Trustee, and the Master Servicer shall
cause each Additional Master Servicer engaged by it and each Servicer to
deliver, in electronic form, or otherwise make available, to the Master
Servicer, the Trustee and each Rating Agency on or before March 5 of each year
or if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day (with a 10 calendar
day cure period, but in no event later than March 15), commencing in March 2007,
a copy of a certificate (followed by a hard copy to the party or parties
receiving such certificate within 10 calendar days) in the form required by Item
1123 of Regulation AB, to the effect that (i) an authorized officer of the
Master Servicer, the Additional Master Servicer or the Servicer, as the case may
be, has reviewed (or a review has been made under his or her supervision of)
such party's activities under this Agreement or the applicable Servicing
Agreement, in the case of a Servicer, or such other applicable agreement in the
case of an Additional Master Servicer, during the prior calendar year or portion
thereof and (ii) to the best of such officer's knowledge, based on such review,
such party has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement or the
applicable Servicing Agreement, in the case of a Servicer, or such other
applicable agreement in the case of an Additional Master Servicer, in all
material respects throughout the prior calendar year or portion thereof or, if
there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect,
specifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature and status
thereof. If any of the certificates delivered pursuant to this Section 3.05
disclose that there has been a failure to fulfill any obligation in any material
respect then the Master Servicer shall promptly notify the Depositor and forward
a copy of such certificate to the Depositor, and the Depositor shall review such
certificate and, if applicable, consult with the Master Servicer as to the
nature of any failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement or the
applicable Servicing Agreement, in the case of a Servicer, or such other
applicable agreement in the case of an Additional Master Servicer, in any
material respect.
Section 3.06 Title, Management and Disposition of Any REO Mortgage
Loan.
The Master Servicer shall enforce the obligations of the applicable
Servicer to administer each REO Mortgage Loan at all times so that each REO
Mortgage Loan qualifies as "foreclosure property" under the REMIC Provisions and
that it does not earn any "net income from foreclosure property" which is
subject to tax under the REMIC Provisions. In the event that a Servicer is
unable to dispose of any REO Mortgage Loan within the period mandated by each of
the Servicing Agreements, the Master Servicer shall monitor such Servicer to
verify that such REO Mortgage Loan is auctioned to the highest bidder within the
period so specified. In the event of any such sale of a REO Mortgage Loan, the
Custodian shall, at the written request of the Master Servicer and upon being
supported with appropriate forms therefor, within five Business Days of the
deposit by the Master Servicer of the proceeds of such sale or auction into the
Certificate Account, release or cause to be released to the entity identified by
the Master Servicer the related Owner Mortgage Loan File, Retained Mortgage Loan
File, if applicable, and Servicer Mortgage Loan File and shall execute and
deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without
recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the auction purchaser title to the
REO Mortgage Loan and the Custodian shall have no further responsibility with
regard to such Owner Mortgage Loan File, Retained Mortgage Loan File, if
applicable, or Servicer Mortgage Loan File. Neither the Trustee, the Master
Servicer nor any Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trust Estate, shall provide
financing from the Trust Estate to any purchaser of an REO Mortgage Loan.
Section 3.07 Amendments to Servicing Agreements,
Modification of Standard Provisions.
(a) Subject to the prior written consent of the Trustee pursuant to
Section 3.07(b) and the prior written consent of the Depositor, the Master
Servicer may, from time to time, to the extent permitted by the applicable
Servicing Agreement, make such modifications and amendments to such Servicing
Agreement as the Master Servicer deems necessary or appropriate to confirm or
carry out more fully the intent and purpose of such Servicing Agreement and the
duties, responsibilities and obligations to be performed by the Servicer
thereunder. Such modifications may only be made if they are consistent with the
REMIC Provisions, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel. Prior to the issuance
of any modification or amendment, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the
Trustee and the Depositor such Opinion of Counsel and an Officer's Certificate
setting forth (i) the provision that is to be modified or amended, (ii) the
modification or amendment that the Master Servicer desires to issue and (iii)
the reason or reasons for such proposed amendment or modification.
(b) The Trustee shall consent to any amendment or supplement to a
Servicing Agreement proposed by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.07(a),
which consent and amendment shall not require the consent of any
Certificateholder if it is (i) for the purpose of curing any mistake or
ambiguity, to further effect or protect the rights of the Certificateholders or
(ii) for any other purpose, provided such amendment or supplement for such other
purpose cannot reasonably be expected to adversely affect Certificateholders.
The lack of reasonable expectation of an adverse effect on Certificateholders
may be established through the delivery to the Trustee of (i) an Opinion of
Counsel to such effect or (ii) written notification from each Rating Agency to
the effect that such amendment or supplement will not result in reduction of the
current rating assigned by that Rating Agency to the Certificates.
Notwithstanding the two immediately preceding sentences, the Trustee may, in its
discretion, decline to enter into or consent to any such supplement or amendment
if its own rights, duties or immunities shall be adversely affected.
(c)(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section
3.07, the Master Servicer from time to time may, without the consent of any
Certificateholder or the Trustee, enter into an amendment (A) to an Other
Servicing Agreement for the purpose of (i) eliminating or reducing Month End
Interest and (ii) providing for the remittance of Full Unscheduled Principal
Receipts by the applicable Servicer to the Master Servicer not later than the
24th day of each month (or if such day is not a Business Day, on the previous
Business Day), (B) to the Xxxxx Fargo Bank Servicing Agreement for the purpose
of changing the applicable Remittance Date to the 18th day of each month (or if
such day is not a Business Day, on the previous Business Day) or (C) to a
Servicing Agreement for the purpose of effecting or facilitating compliance by
the Servicer with Regulation AB or to conform a Servicing Agreement to industry
practices relating to Regulation AB.
(ii) The Master Servicer may direct Xxxxx Fargo Bank in its capacity
as Servicer to enter into an amendment to the Xxxxx Fargo Bank Servicing
Agreement for the purposes described in Section 3.07(c)(i)(B) or (C).
Section 3.08 Oversight of Servicing.
The Master Servicer shall supervise, monitor and oversee the
servicing of the Mortgage Loans by each Servicer and the performance by each
Servicer of all services, duties, responsibilities and obligations (including
the obligation to maintain an Errors and Omissions Policy and Fidelity Bond)
that are to be observed or performed by the Servicer under its respective
Servicing Agreement. In performing its obligations hereunder, the Master
Servicer shall act in a manner consistent with Accepted Master Servicing
Practices and in a manner consistent with the terms and provisions of any
insurance policy required to be maintained by the Master Servicer or any
Servicer pursuant to this Agreement or any Servicing Agreement. The Master
Servicer acknowledges that prior to taking certain actions required to service
the Mortgage Loans, each Servicing Agreement provides that the Servicer
thereunder must notify, consult with, obtain the consent of, waiver from, or
otherwise follow the instructions of the Master Servicer. In the case of any
request for waiver from a Servicer, the Master Servicer shall promptly instruct
such Servicer or otherwise respond to such Servicer's request. The Master
Servicer shall not waive compliance by a Servicer with those provisions of its
Servicing Agreement which are required to enable the Depositor and the Master
Servicer to satisfy the Trust's ongoing reporting obligations under the Exchange
Act. In addition, in no event will the Master Servicer instruct such Servicer to
take any action, give any consent to action by such Servicer or waive compliance
by such Servicer with any provision of such Servicer's Servicing Agreement if
any resulting action or failure to act would be inconsistent with the
requirements of the Rating Agencies that rated the Certificates, would be
inconsistent with the requirements of Regulation AB or would otherwise have an
adverse effect on the Certificateholders. Any such action or failure to act
shall be deemed to have an adverse effect on the Certificateholders if such
action or failure to act either results in (i) the downgrading of the rating
assigned by either Rating Agency to the Certificates, (ii) the loss by the
Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC of REMIC status for federal income tax
purposes or (iii) the imposition of any Prohibited Transaction Tax or any
federal taxes on any of the Upper-Tier REMIC, the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Trust
Estate. The Master Servicer shall have full power and authority in its sole
discretion to take any action with respect to the Trust Estate as may be
necessary or advisable to avoid the circumstances specified including clause
(ii) or (iii) of the preceding sentence.
For the purposes of determining whether any modification of a
Mortgage Loan shall be permitted by the Master Servicer, such modification shall
be construed as a substitution of the modified Mortgage Loan for the Mortgage
Loan originally deposited in the Trust Estate if it would be a "significant
modification" within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the regulations of
the U.S. Department of the Treasury. No modification shall be approved unless
(i) the modified Mortgage Loan would qualify as a Substitute Mortgage Loan under
Section 2.02 and (ii) with respect to any modification that occurs more than
three months after the Closing Date and is not the result of a default or a
reasonably foreseeable default under the Mortgage Loan, there is delivered to
the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to modify
the Mortgage Loan) to the effect that such modification would not be treated as
giving rise to a new debt instrument for federal income tax purposes as
described in the preceding sentence; provided, however, that no such Opinion of
Counsel need be delivered if the sole purpose of the modification is to reduce
the Monthly Payment on a Mortgage Loan as a result of a Curtailment such that
the Mortgage Loan is fully amortized by its original maturity date.
During the term of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall consult
fully with each Servicer as may be necessary from time to time to perform and
carry out the Master Servicer's obligations hereunder and otherwise exercise
reasonable efforts to cause such Servicer to perform and observe the covenants,
obligations and conditions to be performed or observed by it under its Servicing
Agreement.
The relationship of the Master Servicer to the Trustee under this
Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and
not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent.
The Master Servicer shall administer the Trust Estate on behalf of
the Trustee and shall have full power and authority, acting alone or (subject to
the requirements of Section 6.06) through one or more Subcontractors, to do any
and all things in connection with such administration which it may deem
necessary or desirable. Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and
from time to time as may be required thereafter, the Trustee shall furnish the
Master Servicer or its Subcontractors with any powers of attorney and such other
documents as may be necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to
carry out its administrative duties hereunder.
The Depositor shall have a limited option to repurchase any
defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Mortgage Loan during the following time periods:
(i) beginning on the first day of the second month following the month in which
the Master Servicer has reported that a Servicer has initiated foreclosure
proceedings with respect to such a defaulted Mortgage Loan, with such repurchase
option expiring on the last day of such second following month; (ii) beginning
on the first day of the second month following the month in which the Master
Servicer has reported that such defaulted Mortgage Loan has become an REO
Mortgage Loan, with such repurchase option expiring on the last day of such
second following month; and (iii) beginning on the day on which a Servicer
accepts a contractual commitment by a third party to purchase the Mortgaged
Property related to the defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Mortgage Loan, with such
repurchase option expiring on the earlier of the last day of the month in which
such contractual commitment was accepted by the Servicer or the day immediately
prior to the day on which the closing occurs with respect to such third party
purchase of the Mortgaged Property related to the defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO
Mortgage Loan. The Depositor shall be entitled to repurchase at its option any
Mortgage Loan in the Trust Estate which, pursuant to paragraph 5(b) of the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, Xxxxx Fargo Bank requests the Depositor to
repurchase and to sell to Xxxxx Fargo Bank to facilitate the exercise of Xxxxx
Fargo Bank's rights against the originator or a prior holder of such Mortgage
Loan. The purchase price for any Mortgage Loan repurchased pursuant to this
paragraph shall be the Repurchase Price. Upon the receipt of such Repurchase
Price, the Master Servicer shall provide to the Trustee the certification
required by Section 3.04 and the Trustee and the Custodian, if any, shall
promptly release to the Depositor the Owner Mortgage Loan File and Retained
Mortgage Loan File, if applicable, relating to the Mortgage Loan being
repurchased.
In the event that (i) the Master Servicer determines at any time
that, notwithstanding the representations and warranties set forth in Section
2.03(b), any Mortgage Loan is not a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning of
Section 860G of the Code and (ii) the Trustee is unable to enforce the
obligation of the Depositor to purchase such Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section
2.02 within two months of such determination, the Master Servicer shall cause
such Mortgage Loan to be auctioned to the highest bidder and sold out of the
Trust Estate no later than the date 90 days after such determination. In the
event of any such sale of a Mortgage Loan, the Custodian shall, at the written
request of the Master Servicer and upon being supported with appropriate forms
therefor, within five Business Days of the deposit by the Master Servicer of the
proceeds of such auction into the Certificate Account, release or cause to be
released to the entity identified by the Master Servicer the related Owner
Mortgage Loan File, Retained Mortgage Loan File, if applicable, and Servicer
Mortgage Loan File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or
assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the
auction purchaser title to the Mortgage Loan and the Custodian shall have no
further responsibility with regard to such Owner Mortgage Loan File, Retained
Mortgage Loan File, if applicable, or Servicer Mortgage Loan File. None of the
Trustee, the Custodian, the Master Servicer or any Servicer, acting on behalf of
the Trustee, shall provide financing from the Trust Estate to any purchaser of a
Mortgage Loan.
The Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, pursuant to
the Servicing Agreements, object to the foreclosure upon, or other related
conversion of the ownership of, any Mortgaged Property by the related Servicer
if (i) the Master Servicer believes such Mortgaged Property may be contaminated
with or affected by hazardous wastes or hazardous substances or (ii) such
Servicer does not agree to administer such Mortgaged Property, once the related
Mortgage Loan becomes an REO Mortgage Loan, in a manner which would not result
in a federal tax being imposed upon the Trust Estate or the Upper-Tier REMIC or
the Lower-Tier REMIC.
At the direction of the Depositor, the Master Servicer may enter
into a special servicing agreement with an unaffiliated holder of 100%
Percentage Interest of a Class of Class B Certificates or a holder of a class of
securities representing interests in the Class B Certificates and/or other
subordinated mortgage pass-through certificates (such entity, a "Special
Servicer"), such agreement (a "Special Servicing Agreement") to be substantially
in the form of Exhibit M hereto or subject to each Rating Agency's
acknowledgment that the ratings of the Certificates in effect immediately prior
to the entering into of such agreement would not be qualified, downgraded or
withdrawn and the Certificates would not be placed on credit review status
(except for possible upgrading) as a result of such agreement. Any such
agreement may contain provisions whereby such holder may (a) purchase any
Mortgage Loans that are more than 180 days delinquent and (b) instruct the
Master Servicer to instruct a Servicer to the extent provided in the applicable
Servicing Agreement to commence or delay foreclosure proceedings with respect to
delinquent Mortgage Loans and will contain provisions for the deposit of cash by
the holder that would be available for distribution to Certificateholders if
Liquidation Proceeds are less than they otherwise may have been had the Servicer
acted in accordance with its normal procedures.
The Master Servicer shall monitor the rating of Xxxxx Fargo &
Company and upon the occurrence of a Document Transfer Event relating to such
rating, shall promptly notify the Depositor, Trustee and Custodian of the
occurrence of such Document Transfer Event.
Section 3.09 Termination and Substitution of Servicing Agreements.
Upon the occurrence of any event for which a Servicer may be
terminated pursuant to its Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall
promptly deliver to the Depositor and the Trustee an Officer's Certificate
certifying that an event has occurred which may justify termination of such
Servicing Agreement, describing the circumstances surrounding such event and
recommending what action should be taken by the Trustee with respect to such
Servicer. If the Master Servicer recommends that such Servicing Agreement be
terminated, the Master Servicer's certification must state that the breach is
material and not merely technical in nature. Based upon such certification, the
Master Servicer, or if provided by the applicable Other Servicing Agreement and
upon written direction of the Master Servicer, the Trustee, shall promptly
terminate such Other Servicing Agreement. The Trustee shall terminate the Xxxxx
Fargo Bank Servicing Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Article 19
thereof. The Master Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee and hold it harmless
from and against any and all claims, liabilities, costs and expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of, or assessed
against the Trustee in connection with termination of a Servicing Agreement at
the direction of the Master Servicer except to the extent that such claims,
liabilities, costs and expenses are incurred as a result of the bad faith,
willful misfeasance or gross negligence of the Trustee in the performance of its
obligations hereunder. To the extent that the costs and expenses (including any
amounts paid by the Master Servicer pursuant to the immediately preceding
sentence) of the Master Servicer related to any termination of an Other
Servicer, appointment of a successor servicer to an Other Servicer or the
transfer and assumption of servicing by the Master Servicer with respect to any
Other Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, (i) all legal costs
and expenses and all due diligence costs and expenses associated with an
evaluation of the potential termination of an Other Servicer as a result of an
event of default by such Other Servicer, (ii) all costs and expenses associated
with the complete transfer of servicing, including all servicing files and all
servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing
data as may be required by the successor servicer to correct any errors or
insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the successor
servicer to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the related Other
Servicing Agreement and (iii) any costs incurred by the Trustee in connection
with a servicing transfer) are not fully and timely reimbursed by the terminated
Other Servicer, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of such
costs and expenses from the Certificate Account. To the extent that the costs
and expenses of the Trustee related to any termination of Xxxxx Fargo Bank, as a
Servicer under the Xxxxx Fargo Bank Servicing Agreement, appointment of a
successor to Xxxxx Fargo Bank as a Servicer or the transfer and assumption of
servicing by the Trustee with respect to the Xxxxx Fargo Bank Servicing
Agreement (including, without limitation, (i) all legal costs and expenses and
all due diligence costs and expenses associated with an evaluation of the
potential termination of Xxxxx Fargo Bank as a Servicer as a result of an event
of default by Xxxxx Fargo Bank as Servicer and (ii) all costs and expenses
associated with the complete transfer of servicing, including all servicing
files and all servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of
such servicing data as may be required by the successor servicer to correct any
errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the
successor servicer to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the Xxxxx
Fargo Bank Servicing Agreement) are not fully and timely reimbursed by Xxxxx
Fargo Bank as a Servicer, the Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement of such
costs and expenses from the Certificate Account. If the Master Servicer or
Trustee terminates an Other Servicing Agreement, the Trustee may enter into a
substitute Servicing Agreement with the Master Servicer or, at the Master
Servicer's nomination, with another mortgage loan service company acceptable to
the Trustee, the Master Servicer and each Rating Agency under which the Master
Servicer or such substitute servicer, as the case may be, shall assume, satisfy,
perform and carry out all liabilities, duties, responsibilities and obligations
that are to be, or otherwise were to have been, satisfied, performed and carried
out by such Servicer under such terminated Servicing Agreement. If the Trustee
terminates the Xxxxx Fargo Bank Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall enter
into a substitute Servicing Agreement with another mortgage loan service company
acceptable to the Trustee and each Rating Agency under which such substitute
servicer shall assume, satisfy, perform and carry out all liabilities, duties,
responsibilities and obligations that are to be, or otherwise were to have been,
satisfied, performed and carried out by Xxxxx Fargo Bank, in its capacity as
Servicer, under such terminated Servicing Agreement. It is understood and
acknowledged by the parties hereto that there will be a period of transition not
to exceed ninety (90) days before the servicing functions can be transferred to
such substitute servicer. Until such time as the Trustee enters into a
substitute servicing agreement with respect to the Mortgage Loans previously
serviced by an Other Servicer and the transition period relating to the transfer
of such servicing expires, the Master Servicer shall assume, satisfy, perform
and carry out all obligations which otherwise were to have been satisfied,
performed and carried out by an Other Servicer under its terminated Servicing
Agreement. However, in no event shall the Master Servicer be deemed to have
assumed the obligations of a Servicer to advance payments of principal and
interest on a delinquent Mortgage Loan in excess of the Master Servicer's
independent Periodic Advance obligation under Section 3.03 of this Agreement. As
compensation for the Master Servicer of any servicing obligations fulfilled or
assumed by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to any
servicing compensation to which a Servicer would have been entitled if the
Servicing Agreement with such Servicer had not been terminated.
Section 3.10 Application of Net Liquidation Proceeds.
For all purposes under this agreement, Net Liquidation Proceeds
received from a Servicer shall be allocated first to accrued and unpaid interest
on the related Mortgage Loan and then to the unpaid principal balance thereof.
Section 3.11 Assessment of Servicing Compliance; Registered Public
Accounting Firm Attestation Reports.
(a) The Master Servicer, at its own expense, shall furnish to the
Depositor, and the Trustee, any Special Servicer (if applicable) and the
Custodian, at their own expense, shall furnish, or otherwise make available, and
shall cause any Servicing Function Participant engaged by any such party to
furnish, and the Master Servicer shall use reasonable effort to cause each
Servicer to furnish with respect to such Servicer and each Servicing Function

party whose cooperation is required in connection with the preparation of such
amendment; provided however that such notice shall not be required in connection
with an amendment to Form 10-D due to a revision made to any Distribution Date
Statement. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the performance by the
Master Servicer of its duties under this Section 3.12(d) related to the timely
preparation and filing of a Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, 10-D or
10-K is contingent upon each such party performing its duties under this

damage, claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare
and/or timely file any such Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Forms 8-K, 10-D or
10-K, where such failure results from the Master Servicer's inability or failure
to obtain or receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party
hereto, any Servicer, the Custodian or any Special Servicer (if applicable)
needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 12b-25 or any

thereto which would cause the Trust to again become subject to the reporting
requirements of the Exchange Act, the Master Servicer shall recommence preparing
and filing reports on Form 10-D, 10-K and 8-K as required pursuant to this
Section.
(f) To the extent the Master Servicer is obligated to give any
notice to the Depositor pursuant to this Section 3.12, such notice may,

the Class A-L1 Interest shall receive a distribution in respect of interest in

Certificates pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of Class A-IO REMIC
Pass-Through Amount. Such amounts distributed to the Uncertificated Lower-Tier
Interests in respect of principal and interest with respect to any Distribution
Date are referred to herein collectively as the "Lower-Tier Distribution
Amount."
As of any date, the principal balance of each Uncertificated
Lower-Tier Interest equals the Principal Balances of the respective
Corresponding Upper-Tier Class or Classes. The initial principal balance of each
Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest equals the Original Principal Balances of the
respective Corresponding Upper-Tier Class or Classes.

A-L2 Interest, Class A-LUR Interest, Class B-L1 Interest, Class B-L2 Interest,
Class B-L3 Interest, Class B-L4 Interest, Class B-L5 Interest and Class B-L6

Shortfalls will be allocated to each Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest in the
same relative proportions as interest is allocated to such Uncertificated
Lower-Tier Interest.
(b) The Class A-8 and Class A-IO Certificates are Interest Only
Certificates and are not entitled to distributions in respect of principal.
On each Distribution Date occurring prior to the Subordination
Depletion Date, the Class A Principal Distribution Amount will be allocated
among and distributed in reduction of the Principal Balances of the Class A

Certificates, pro rata, up to $2,082,000 for
such Distribution Date;
(C) sequentially, to the Class A-4, Class A-5
and Class A-6 Certificates; and
(D) concurrently, to the Class A-2 and Class A-3
Certificates, pro rata.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, on each Distribution Date
occurring on or subsequent to the Subordination Depletion Date, the Class A
Principal Distribution Amount shall be distributed among the Classes of Class A
Certificates pro rata in accordance with their outstanding Principal Balances
without regard to either the proportions or the priorities set forth in Section
4.01(b).
(d)(i) For purposes of determining whether the Classes of Class B
Certificates are eligible to receive unscheduled principal distributions (other
than Liquidation Proceeds that are not Partial Liquidation Proceeds) with
respect to any Distribution Date, the following tests shall apply:
(A) if the Current Class B-1 Fractional Interest is less than the
Original Class B-1 Fractional Interest and the Class B-1 Principal Balance
is greater than zero, the Class B-2, Class B-3, Class B-4, Class B-5 and
Class B-6 Certificates shall not be eligible to receive distributions of
such unscheduled principal; or
(B) if the Current Class B-2 Fractional Interest is less than the
Original Class B-2 Fractional Interest and the Class B-2 Principal Balance
is greater than zero, the Class B-3, Class B-4, Class B-5 and Class B-6
Certificates shall not be eligible to receive distributions of such
unscheduled principal; or
(C) if the Current Class B-3 Fractional Interest is less than the
Original Class B-3 Fractional Interest and the Class B-3 Principal Balance
is greater than zero, the Class B-4, Class B-5 and Class B-6 Certificates
shall not be eligible to receive distributions of such unscheduled
principal; or
(D) if the Current Class B-4 Fractional Interest is less than the
Original Class B-4 Fractional Interest and the Class B-4 Principal Balance
is greater than zero, the Class B-5 and Class B-6 Certificates shall not
be eligible to receive distributions of such unscheduled principal; or
(E) if the Current Class B-5 Fractional Interest is less than the
Original Class B-5 Fractional Interest and the Class B-5 Principal Balance
is greater than zero, the Class B-6 Certificates shall not be eligible to
receive distributions of such unscheduled principal.
(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on any Distribution Date the
aggregate principal distributions to Holders of the Classes of Class B
Certificates would reduce the Principal Balances of the Classes of Class B
Certificates below zero, first the Class B Prepayment Percentage of any affected
Class of Class B Certificates for such Distribution Date beginning with the
affected Class with the lowest numerical Class designation and then, if
necessary, the Class B Percentage of such Class of the Class B Certificates for
such Distribution Date shall be reduced to the respective percentages necessary
to bring the Principal Balance of such Class of Class B Certificates to zero.
The Class B Prepayment Percentages and the Class B Percentages of the remaining
Classes of Class B Certificates will be recomputed substituting for the
Subordinated Prepayment Percentage and Subordinated Percentage in such
computations the difference between (A) the Subordinated Prepayment Percentage
or Subordinated Percentage as the case may be, and (B) the percentages
determined in accordance with the preceding sentence necessary to bring the
Principal Balances of the affected Classes of Class B Certificates to zero;
provided, however, that if the Principal Balances of all the Classes of Class B
Certificates eligible to receive distributions of unscheduled principal pursuant
to clause (i) shall be reduced to zero on such Distribution Date, the Class B
Prepayment Percentage of the Class of Class B Certificates with the lowest
numerical Class designation which would otherwise be ineligible to receive such
distributions of unscheduled principal in accordance with this Section shall
equal the remainder of the Subordinated Prepayment Percentage for such
Distribution Date minus the sum of the Class B Prepayment Percentages of the
Classes of Class B Certificates having lower numerical Class designations, if
any. Any entitlement of any Class of Class B Certificates to principal payments
solely pursuant to this clause (ii) shall not cause such Class to be regarded as
being eligible to receive such unscheduled principal distributions for the
purpose of applying the definition of its Class B Prepayment Percentage.
(e) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain the Upper-Tier
Certificate Account, which shall be a separate trust account and an Eligible
Account (provided that such account may be deemed a sub-account of the Payment
Account so long as the Master Servicer is the Paying Agent). On each
Distribution Date other than the Final Distribution Date (if such Final
Distribution Date is in connection with a purchase of the assets of the Trust
Estate by the Depositor), the Paying Agent shall, on behalf of the Master
Servicer, from funds available on deposit in the Payment Account, be deemed to
deposit, in immediately available funds, by wire transfer or otherwise, into the
Upper-Tier Certificate Account the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount. The Master
Servicer may clear and terminate the Upper-Tier Certificate Account pursuant to
Section 9.01.
(f) On each Distribution Date other than the Final Distribution Date
(if such Final Distribution Date is in connection with a purchase of the assets
of the Trust Estate by the Depositor), the Paying Agent shall from funds
remitted to it by the Master Servicer, distribute to each Certificateholder of
record on the preceding Record Date (other than as provided in Section 9.01
respecting the final distribution to Certificateholders or in the last paragraph
of this Section 4.01(f) respecting the final distribution in respect of any
Class) either in immediately available funds by wire transfer to the account of
such Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities
therefor, if such Certificateholder holds Certificates having a Denomination at
least equal to that specified in Section 11.23, and has so notified the Paying
Agent at least seven Business Days prior to the Distribution Date or, if such
Holder holds Certificates having, in the aggregate, a Denomination less than the
requisite minimum Denomination or if such Holder holds the Residual Certificate
or has not so notified the Paying Agent, by check mailed to such Holder at the
address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate Register, such Holder's
share of the Class A Distribution Amount with respect to each Class of Class A
Certificates and the Class B Distribution Amount with respect to each Class of
Class B Certificates.
In the event that, on any Distribution Date prior to the Final
Distribution Date, the Principal Balance of any Class of Class A Certificates
(other than the Residual Certificate) or the Principal Balance of any Class of
Class B Certificates would be reduced to zero, or in the case of a Class of
Interest Only Certificates, the related Notional Amount, would be reduced to
zero, the Master Servicer shall, as soon as practicable after the Determination
Date relating to such Distribution Date, send notice to the Paying Agent. The
Paying Agent shall then send a notice to each Certificateholder of such Class
with a copy to the Certificate Registrar, specifying that the final distribution
with respect to such Class will be made on such Distribution Date only upon the
presentation and surrender of such Certificateholder's Certificates at the
office or agency of the Certificate Registrar therein specified; provided,
however, that the failure to give such notice will not entitle a
Certificateholder to any interest beyond the interest payable with respect to
such Distribution Date in accordance with Section 4.01(a).
(g) The Paying Agent shall withhold or cause to be withheld such
amounts as may be required by the Code (giving full effect to any exemptions
from withholding and related certifications required to be furnished by
Certificateholders and any reductions to withholding by virtue of any bilateral
tax treaties and any applicable certification required to be furnished by
Certificateholders with respect thereto) from distributions to be made to
Persons other than U.S. Persons ("Non-U.S. Persons"). Amounts withheld pursuant
to this Section 4.01(f) shall be treated as having been distributed to the
related Certificateholder for all purposes of this Agreement. For the purposes
of this paragraph, a "U.S. Person" is a citizen or resident of the United
States, a corporation or partnership (unless, in the case of a partnership,
Treasury regulations are adopted that provide otherwise) created or organized in
or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of
Columbia, including an entity treated as a corporation or partnership for
federal income tax purposes, an estate whose income is subject to United States
federal income tax regardless of its source, or a trust if a court within the
United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of
such trust, and one or more such U.S. Persons have the authority to control all
substantial decisions of such trust (or, to the extent provided in applicable
Treasury regulations, certain trusts in existence on August 20, 1996 which are
eligible to elect to be treated as U.S. Persons).
Section 4.02 Allocation of Realized Losses.
(a) With respect to any Distribution Date, the principal portion of
Realized Losses (other than Debt Service Reductions) will be allocated as
follows:
first, to the Class B-6 Certificates until the Class B-6 Principal
Balance has been reduced to zero;
second, to the Class B-5 Certificates until the Class B-5 Principal
Balance has been reduced to zero;
third, to the Class B-4 Certificates until the Class B-4 Principal
Balance has been reduced to zero;
fourth, to the Class B-3 Certificates until the Class B-3 Principal
Balance has been reduced to zero;
fifth, to the Class B-2 Certificates until the Class B-2 Principal
Balance has been reduced to zero;
sixth, to the Class B-1 Certificates until the Class B-1 Principal
Balance has been reduced to zero; and
seventh, to the Class A Certificates.
This allocation of Realized Losses will be effected through the
reduction of the applicable Class's Principal Balance through the operation of
the definition of Principal Balance and the provisos in the definitions of Class
B-1 Principal Balance, Class B-2 Principal Balance, Class B-3 Principal Balance,
Class B-4 Principal Balance, Class B-5 Principal Balance and Class B-6 Principal
Balance.
(b) Any Realized Losses allocated to a Class of Class A Certificates
or Class B Certificates pursuant to Section 4.02(a) shall be allocated among the
Certificates of such Class based on their Percentage Interests.
(c) With respect to any Distribution Date, the interest portion of
Realized Losses will be allocated after the Subordination Depletion Date among
the outstanding Classes of Class A Certificates based on their Class A Interest
Percentages.
(d) Realized Losses allocated in accordance with this Section 4.02
will be allocated as follows: (i) Liquidated Loan Losses on Liquidated Loans for
which the Liquidation Proceeds were received during, and Bankruptcy Losses
incurred in a period corresponding to, an Unscheduled Principal Receipt Period
for Full Unscheduled Principal Receipts that is a Mid-Month Receipt Period will
be allocated on the Determination Date in the month following the month in which
such Mid-Month Receipt Period ended and (ii) Liquidated Loan Losses on
Liquidated Loans for which the Liquidation Proceeds were received during, and
Bankruptcy Losses incurred in a period corresponding to, an Unscheduled
Principal Receipt Period for Full Unscheduled Principal Receipts that is a Prior
Month Receipt Period will be allocated on the Determination Date in the second
month following the month which is such Prior Month Receipt Period.
(e) With respect to any Distribution Date, the principal portion of
Realized Losses and recoveries attributable to previously allocated Realized
Losses allocated pursuant to this Section 4.02 will be allocated to each
Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest in an amount equal to the amount allocated to
its respective Corresponding Upper-Tier Class or Classes as provided above.
(f) With respect to any Distribution Date, the interest portion of
Realized Losses allocated pursuant to this Section 4.02 will be allocated to
each Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest in the same relative proportions as
interest is allocated to such Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest.
Section 4.03 Paying Agent.
(a) The Paying Agent shall establish and maintain a Payment Account,
which shall be a separate trust account (unless the Master Servicer is the
Paying Agent, in which case, the Certificate Account may be the Payment Account)
and an Eligible Account, in which the Master Servicer shall cause to be
deposited from funds in the Certificate Account or, to the extent required
hereunder, from its own funds (i) at or before 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the
Business Day preceding each Distribution Date, by wire transfer of immediately
available funds, any Periodic Advance for such Distribution Date, pursuant to
Section 3.03 and (ii) at or before 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the Business
Day preceding each Distribution Date, by wire transfer of immediately available
funds, an amount equal to the Pool Distribution Amount. The Master Servicer may
cause the Paying Agent to invest the funds in the Payment Account. Any such
investment shall be in Eligible Investments, which shall mature not later than
the Business Day preceding the related Distribution Date (unless the Eligible
Investments are obligations of the institution that maintains such account, in
which case such Eligible Investments shall mature not later than the
Distribution Date), and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to maturity. All
income and gain realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit of
the Master Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal or order from time to
time. The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments shall
be deposited in the Payment Account by the Master Servicer out of its own funds
immediately as realized. The Paying Agent may withdraw from the Payment Account
any amount deposited in the Payment Account that was not required to be
deposited therein and may clear and terminate the Payment Account pursuant to
Section 9.01.
(b) Xxxxx Fargo Bank is hereby appointed as initial Paying Agent to
make distributions to Certificateholders and to make available to

Paying Agent, other than Xxxxx Fargo Bank for so long as Xxxxx Fargo Bank is

Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar
year, the Paying Agent shall, upon request, furnish or cause to be furnished to
each Person who at any time during the calendar year was the Holder of a
Certificate a statement containing the information set forth in clauses (ii) and
(iii)(A) above in the case of a Class A Certificateholder and the information
set forth in clauses (iv) and (v)(A) above in the case of a Class B

(b) The Master Servicer's responsibility for disbursing the

Servicer. The Master Servicer will make a copy of each Distribution Date
Statement provided pursuant to this Section 4.04 (and, at its option, any
additional files containing the same information in an alternative format)
available each month to Certificateholders and other interested parties, and
other parties to this Agreement via the Master Servicer's internet website,
which in the case of Xxxxx Fargo Bank, is located at "xxx.xxxxxxx.xxx." In
addition, the Paying Agent shall provide copies of the Distribution Date
Statement and the annual statements required pursuant to Section 4.04(a) to
Persons making written requests therefor at its Corporate Trust Office.
Assistance in using the internet website can be obtained by calling the Master
Servicer's customer service desk, which in the case of Xxxxx Fargo Bank, is at
(000) 000-0000. Parties that are unable to use the above distribution method are
entitled to have a paper copy mailed to them via first class mail by calling the
customer service desk and indicating such. The Master Servicer shall have the
right to change the way the Distribution Date Statement is distributed in order
to make such distribution more convenient and/or more accessible and the Master
Servicer shall provide timely and adequate notification to the
Certificateholders and the parties to this Agreement regarding any such changes.
The Master Servicer shall also be entitled to rely on but shall not
be responsible for the content or accuracy of any information provided by third
parties for purposes of preparing the Distribution Date Statement and may affix
thereto any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion
(without suggesting liability on the part of any other party hereto).
Section 4.05 Reports to Mortgagors and the Internal Revenue Service.
The Master Servicer shall, in each year beginning after the Cut-Off
Date, cause the applicable Servicers to make the reports of foreclosures and
abandonments of any Mortgaged Property as required by Code Section 6050J. In
order to facilitate this reporting process, the Master Servicer shall request
that each Servicer, on or before January 15th of each year, shall provide to the
Internal Revenue Service, with copies to the Master Servicer, reports relating
to each instance occurring during the previous calendar year in which such
Servicer (i) on behalf of the Trustee acquires an interest in a Mortgaged
Property through foreclosure or other comparable conversion in full or partial
satisfaction of a Mortgage Loan serviced by such Servicer, or (ii) knows or has
reason to know that a Mortgaged Property has been abandoned. Reports from the
Servicers shall be in form and substance sufficient to meet the reporting
requirements imposed by Code Section 6050J. In addition, each Servicer shall
provide the Master Servicer with sufficient information to allow the Master
Servicer to, for each year ending after the Cut-Off Date, provide, or cause to
be provided, to the Internal Revenue Service and the Mortgagors such information
as is required under Code Sections 6050H (regarding payment of interest) and
6050P (regarding cancellation of indebtedness).
Section 4.06 Calculation of Amounts; Binding Effect of
Interpretations and Actions of Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer will compute the amount of all distributions to
be made on the Certificates and all losses to be allocated to the Certificates.
In the event that the Master Servicer concludes that any ambiguity or
uncertainty exists in any provisions of this Agreement relating to distributions
to be made on the Certificates, the allocation of losses to the Certificates or
otherwise, the interpretation of such provisions and any actions taken by the
Master Servicer in good faith to implement such interpretation shall be binding
upon Certificateholders.

than the Class A-IO Certificates) and (ii) integral multiples of $1 in excess
thereof, with respect to the Class A-IO Certificates (except, if necessary, for
one Certificate of each Class (other than the Class A-8, Class A-IO and Residual
Certificates) that evidences one Single Certificate plus such additional
principal portion as is required in order for all Certificates of such Class to

bind the Paying Agent notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have
ceased to hold such offices prior to the countersigning of such Certificates 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 manually countersigned by a
Responsible Officer of the Authenticating Agent, or unless there appears on such
Certificate a certificate of authentication executed by the Authenticating Agent
by manual signature, and such countersignature or certificate upon a Certificate
shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has
been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated
the date of their authentication.
Until such time as Definitive Certificates are issued pursuant to
Section 5.07, each Book-Entry Certificate shall bear the following legend:
"Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized
representative of [the Clearing Agency] to the Depositor or its agent for
registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any certificate issued is
registered in the name of [the Clearing Agency] or such other name as requested
by an authorized representative of [the Clearing Agency] and any payment is made
to [the Clearing Agency], any transfer, pledge or other use hereof for value or
otherwise by or to any person is wrongful since the registered owner hereof,
[the Clearing Agency], has an interest herein."
(b) Upon original issuance, the Book-Entry Certificates shall be
issued in the form of one or more typewritten certificates, to be delivered to
The Depository Trust Company, the initial Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of,
the Depositor or to, and deposited with the Certificate Custodian, on behalf of
The Depository Trust Company, if directed to do so pursuant instructions from
The Depository Trust Company. Such Certificates shall initially be registered in
the Certificate Register in the name of the nominee of the initial Clearing
Agency, and no Beneficial Owner will receive a definitive certificate
representing such Beneficial Owner's interest in the Book-Entry Certificates,
except as provided in Section 5.07. Unless and until definitive, fully
registered certificates ("Definitive Certificates") have been issued to
Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 5.07:
(i) the provisions of this Section 5.01(b) shall be in full force
and effect;
(ii) the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Registrar,
the Paying Agent and the Trustee may deal with the Clearing Agency for all
purposes (including the making of distributions on the Book-Entry
Certificates and the taking of actions by the Holders of Book-Entry
Certificates) as the authorized representative of the Beneficial Owners;
(iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 5.01(b)
conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of
this Section 5.01(b) shall control;
(iv) the rights of Beneficial Owners shall be exercised only through
the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law, the
rules, regulations and procedures of the Clearing Agency and agreements
between such Beneficial Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing
Agency Participants, and all references in this Agreement to actions by
Certificateholders shall, with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates,
refer to actions taken by the Clearing Agency upon instructions from the
Clearing Agency Participants, and all references in this Agreement to
distributions, notices, reports and statements to Certificateholders
shall, with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates, refer to
distributions, notices, reports and statements to the Clearing Agency or
its nominee, as registered holder of the Book-Entry Certificates, as the
case may be, for distribution to Beneficial Owners in accordance with the
procedures of the Clearing Agency; and
(v) the initial Clearing Agency will make book-entry transfers among
the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit distributions of
principal and interest on the Certificates to the Clearing Agency
Participants, for distribution by such Clearing Agency Participants to the
Beneficial Owners or their nominees.
For purposes of any provision of this Agreement requiring or
permitting actions with the consent of, or at the direction of, Holders of
Book-Entry Certificates evidencing specified Voting Interests, such direction or
consent shall be given by Beneficial Owners having the requisite Voting
Interests, acting through the Clearing Agency.
Unless and until Definitive Certificates have been issued to
Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 5.07, copies of the Distribution Date
Statements shall be available to Beneficial Owners upon written request to the
Paying Agent at its Corporate Trust Office.

(a) The Certificate Registrar shall cause to be kept at one of the
offices or agencies to be maintained in accordance with the provisions of
Section 5.06 a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Certificate Registrar shall provide for the
registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as
herein provided. The Master Servicer shall act as, or shall appoint, a
Certificate Registrar for the purpose of registering Certificates and transfers
and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided.
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at
any office or agency maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 5.06 (and
subject to the provisions of this Section 5.02) the Paying Agent shall execute,
and shall date, countersign (or cause the Authenticating Agent to countersign)
and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or
more new Certificates of a like aggregate principal portion or Percentage
Interest and of the same Class.
At the option of the Certificateholders, Certificates may be
exchanged for other Certificates of authorized Denominations of a like aggregate
principal portion or Percentage Interest and of the same Class upon surrender of
the Certificates to be exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any
Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Paying Agent shall execute,
and shall date, countersign (or cause the Authenticating Agent to countersign)
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 Certificate Registrar or the Paying Agent)
be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in
form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, duly executed by the Holder
thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
No service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange of
Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar 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.
All Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be
canceled by the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent or the Authenticating
Agent in accordance with their standard procedures.
(b) No transfer of a Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6 Certificate
shall be made unless the registration requirements of the 1933 Act and any
applicable State securities laws are complied with, or such transfer is exempt
from the registration requirements under said Act and laws. In the event that a
transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from said Act or laws, (i)
unless such transfer is made in reliance on Rule 144A, the Master Servicer or
the Depositor may, if such transfer is to be made within three years after the
later of (a) the date of the initial sale of Certificates or (b) the last date
on which the Depositor or any affiliate thereof was a Holder of the Certificates
proposed to be transferred, require a Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6
Certificateholder to deliver a written Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in
form and substance satisfactory to the Master Servicer and the Depositor, to the
effect that such transfer may 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 Depositor or the Master Servicer, and (ii) the Master Servicer
shall require the transferee (other than an affiliate of the Depositor on the
Closing Date) to execute an investment letter in the form of Exhibit J hereto
certifying to the Depositor and the Master Servicer the facts surrounding such
transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of the Depositor or
the Master Servicer. The Holder of a Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6
Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to,
indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and any Paying Agent
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. Neither the Depositor nor
the Master Servicer is under an obligation to register the Class B-4, Class B-5
or Class B-6 Certificates under said Act or any other securities law.
(c) No transfer of a Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6 Certificate
shall be made unless the Master Servicer and the Depositor shall have received
(i) a representation letter from the transferee in the form of Exhibit J hereto,
to the effect that either (a) such transferee is not an employee benefit plan or
other retirement arrangement subject to Title I of ERISA or Code Section 4975,
or a governmental plan, as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA, subject to any
federal, state or local law ("Similar Law") which is to a material extent
similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code (collectively, a
"Plan") and is not a person acting on behalf of or using the assets of any such
Plan, which representation letter shall not be an expense of the Depositor or
the Master Servicer or (b) if such transferee is an insurance company, (A) the
source of funds used to purchase the Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6
Certificate is an "insurance company general account" (as such term is defined
in Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 ("PTE 95-60"),
60 Fed. Reg. 35925 (July 12, 1995)), (B) there is no Plan with respect to which
the amount of such general account's reserves and liabilities for the
contract(s) held by or on behalf of such Plan and all other Plans maintained by
the same employer (or affiliate thereof as defined in Section V(a)(1) of PTE
95-60) or by the same employee organization exceeds 10% of the total of all
reserves and liabilities of such general account (as such amounts are determined
under Section I(a) of PTE 95-60) at the date of acquisition and (C) the purchase
and holding of such Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6 Certificate is covered by
Sections I and III of PTE 95-60 or (ii) in the case of any such Class B-4, Class
B-5 or Class B-6 Certificate presented for registration in the name of a Plan,
or a trustee of any such Plan, (A) an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the
Master Servicer and the Depositor to the effect that the purchase or holding of
such Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6 Certificate will not constitute or result
in a non-exempt prohibited transaction within the meaning of ERISA, Section 4975
of the Code or Similar Law and will not subject the Depositor or the Master
Servicer to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement,
which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor or the Master
Servicer and (B) such other opinions of counsel, Officer's Certificates and
agreements as the Depositor or the Master Servicer may require in connection
with such transfer, which opinions of counsel, Officer's Certificates and
agreements shall not be an expense of the Depositor or the Master Servicer. The
Class B-4, Class B-5 and Class B-6 Certificates shall bear a legend referring to
the foregoing restrictions contained in this paragraph.
(d) No legal or beneficial interest in all or any portion of the
Residual Certificate may be transferred directly or indirectly to a
"disqualified organization" within the meaning of Code Section 860E(e)(5) or an
agent of a disqualified organization (including a broker, nominee, or
middleman), to a Plan or a Person acting on behalf of or investing the assets of
a Plan (such Plan or Person, an "ERISA Prohibited Holder") or to an individual,
corporation, partnership or other person unless such transferee (i) is not a
Non-U.S. Person or (ii) is a Non-U.S. Person that holds the Residual Certificate
in connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States
and has furnished the transferor and the Master Servicer with an effective
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or (iii) is a Non-U.S. Person that has
delivered to both the transferor and the Master Servicer an opinion of a
nationally recognized tax counsel to the effect that the transfer of the
Residual Certificate to it is in accordance with the requirements of the Code
and the regulations promulgated thereunder and that such transfer of the
Residual Certificate will not be disregarded for federal income tax purposes
(any such person who is not covered by clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above being
referred to herein as a "Non-permitted Foreign Holder"), and any such purported
transfer shall be void and have no effect. The Paying Agent shall not execute,
and shall not countersign (or cause the Authenticating Agent to countersign) and
deliver, a new Residual Certificate in connection with any such transfer to a
disqualified organization or agent thereof (including a broker, nominee or
middleman), an ERISA Prohibited Holder or a Non-permitted Foreign Holder, and
neither the Certificate Registrar nor the Paying Agent shall accept a surrender
for transfer or registration of transfer, or register the transfer of, the
Residual Certificate, unless the transferor shall have provided to the Master
Servicer an affidavit, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit H hereto,
signed by the transferee, to the effect that the transferee is not such a
disqualified organization, an agent (including a broker, nominee, or middleman)
for any entity as to which the transferee has not received a substantially
similar affidavit, an ERISA Prohibited Holder or a Non-permitted Foreign Holder,
which affidavit shall contain the consent of the transferee to any such
amendments of this Agreement as may be required to further effectuate the
foregoing restrictions on transfer of the Residual Certificate to disqualified
organizations, ERISA Prohibited Holders or Non-permitted Foreign Holders. Such
affidavit shall also contain the statement of the transferee that (i) the
transferee has historically paid its debts as they have come due and intends to
do so in the future, (ii) the transferee understands that it may incur
liabilities in excess of cash flows generated by the residual interest, (iii)
the transferee intends to pay taxes associated with holding the residual
interest as they become due (iv) the transferee will not cause income from the
Residual Certificate to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or
fixed base, within the meaning of an applicable tax treaty, of such transferee
or any other Person, and (v) the transferee will not transfer the Residual
Certificate to any Person who does not provide an affidavit substantially in the
form attached as Exhibit H hereto.
The affidavit described in the preceding paragraph, if not executed
in connection with the initial issuance of the Residual Certificate, shall be
accompanied by a written statement in the form attached as Exhibit I hereto,
signed by the transferor, to the effect that as of the time of the transfer, the
transferor has no actual knowledge that the transferee is a disqualified
organization, ERISA Prohibited Holder or Non-permitted Foreign Holder, and has
no knowledge or reason to know that the statements made by the transferee with
respect to clauses (i) and (iii) of the last sentence of the preceding paragraph
are not true. The Residual Certificate shall bear a legend referring to the
foregoing restrictions contained in this paragraph and the preceding paragraph.
Upon actual knowledge of a Master Servicing Officer or a Responsible
Officer of the Paying Agent that any legal or beneficial interest in any portion
of the Residual Certificate has been transferred, directly or indirectly, to a
disqualified organization or agent thereof (including a broker, nominee, or
middleman) in contravention of the foregoing restrictions, (i) such transferee
shall be deemed to hold the Residual Certificate in constructive trust for the
last transferor who was not a disqualified organization or agent thereof, and
such transferor shall be restored as the owner of such Residual Certificate as
completely as if such transfer had never occurred, provided that the Master
Servicer may, but is not required to, recover any distributions made to such
transferee with respect to the Residual Certificate, and (ii) the Master
Servicer agrees to furnish to the Internal Revenue Service and to any transferor
of the Residual Certificate or such agent (within 60 days of the request
therefor by the transferor or agent) such information necessary to the
application of Code Section 860E(e) as may be required by the Code, including
but not limited to the present value of the total anticipated excess inclusions
with respect to the Residual Certificate (or portion thereof) for periods after
such transfer. At the election of the Master Servicer, the cost to the Master
Servicer of computing and furnishing such information may be charged to the
transferor or such agent referred to above; however, the Master Servicer shall
in no event be excused from furnishing such information.
Section 5.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.
If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Paying Agent,
the Certificate Registrar or the Authenticating Agent, or the Paying Agent, the
Certificate Registrar or the Authenticating Agent receives evidence to its
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii)
there is delivered to the Paying Agent, the Certificate Registrar or the
Authenticating Agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to
hold each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Paying Agent,
the Certificate Registrar or the Authenticating Agent that such Certificate has
been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Paying Agent shall execute and
countersign (or cause the Authenticating Agent to countersign) and deliver, in
exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and principal portion or Percentage
Interest and of the same Class. Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under
this Section, the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar 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 expense (including the fees and
expenses of the Paying Agent or the Authenticating Agent) in connection
therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall
constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust Estate,
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.
Prior to the due presentation of a Certificate for registration of
transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the
Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar 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 Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent nor any agent of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the
Paying Agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
Section 5.05 Access to List of Certificateholders' Names and
Addresses.
(a) If the Paying Agent is not acting as Certificate Registrar, the
Certificate Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Paying
Agent, within 15 days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a request by
the Paying Agent in writing, a list, in such form as the Paying Agent may
reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders of each
Class as of the most recent Record Date.
(b) If five or more Certificateholders (hereinafter referred to as
"applicants") apply in writing to the Certificate Registrar, and such
application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other
Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under
the Certificates and is accompanied by a copy of the communication which such
applicants propose to transmit, then the Certificate Registrar shall, within
five Business Days following the receipt of such application, afford such
applicants access during normal business hours to the most recent list of
Certificateholders held by the Certificate Registrar.
(c) Every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate,
agrees with the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, the
Paying Agent and the Trustee that neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent nor the Trustee shall be held
accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names,
addresses and Percentage Interests of the Certificateholders hereunder,
regardless of the source from which such information was delivered.
Section 5.06 Maintenance of Office or Agency.
The Certificate Registrar will maintain, at its expense, an office
or agency where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Certificate Registrar in
respect of the Certificates and this Agreement may be served. The Certificate
Registrar initially designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Certificate
Registrar, if any, as its offices and agencies for said purposes.
Section 5.07 Definitive Certificates.
If (A) the Clearing Agency advises the Paying Agent in writing that
the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able properly to discharge its
responsibilities as depository with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates, and
(B) the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor, the Paying Agent
shall notify the Beneficial Owners, through the Clearing Agency, of the
occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates
to Beneficial Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent by
the Clearing Agency of the Certificates held of record by its nominee,
accompanied by reregistration instructions and directions to execute and
authenticate new Certificates from the Depositor, the Paying Agent shall execute
and cause the Authenticating Agent to countersign Definitive Certificates for
delivery at its Corporate Trust Office. The Depositor shall arrange for, and
will bear all costs of, the printing and issuance of such Definitive
Certificates. Except with the consent of the Depositor, the Paying Agent shall
not execute or cause the Authenticating Agent to countersign Definitive
Certificates in exchange for Book-Entry Certificates except as set forth above.
Neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Paying Agent shall be liable
for any delay in delivery of such instructions by the Clearing Agency and may
conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions.
Section 5.08 Notices to Clearing Agency.
Whenever notice or other communication to the Holders of Book-Entry
Certificates is required under this Agreement, unless and until Definitive
Certificates shall have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section
5.07, the Paying Agent shall give all such notices and communications specified
herein to be given to Holders of Book-Entry Certificates to the Clearing Agency.

Section 6.01 Liability of the Depositor and the Master Servicer.
The Depositor and the Master Servicer shall each be liable in
accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed
by this Agreement and undertaken hereunder by the Depositor and the Master
Servicer.
Section 6.02 Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor or the Master
Servicer.
Subject to the following paragraph (a) the Depositor will keep in
full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a corporation under the laws
of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, and will obtain and preserve its
qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in
which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement, the Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans
and to perform its respective duties under this Agreement and (b) the Master
Servicer will keep in full effect its power and authority as a national banking
association under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, and will
obtain and preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in
which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement, the Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans
and to perform its respective duties under this Agreement.
The Depositor or the Master Servicer may be merged or consolidated
with or into any Person, or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to
any Person, in which case any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation
to which the Depositor or Master Servicer shall be a party, or any Person
succeeding to the business of the Depositor or Master Servicer, shall be the
successor of the Depositor or Master 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, (a) in the case of the Master Servicer, any such successor or resulting
Person shall have a net worth of not less than $15,000,000 and be qualified to
service mortgage loans for Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac and (b) the Master Servicer
and such successor or surviving Person shall notify the Depositor and the
Trustee of any such merger, conversion or consolidation at least two Business
Days prior to the effective date thereof (unless giving such prior notice would
be prohibited by applicable law or by a confidentiality agreement, in which case
notice shall be given by 12 noon eastern time one Business Day after such merger
or consolidation).
Section 6.03 Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the Master
Servicer and Others.
Neither the Depositor nor the Master Servicer nor any subcontractor
nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of any of them shall be
under any liability to the Trust Estate or the Certificateholders and all such
Persons shall be held harmless 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 any such
Person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein or
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 Depositor,
the Master Servicer, any subcontractor, and any director, officer, employee or
agent of any of them shall be entitled to indemnification by the Trust Estate
and will be held harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred in
connection with the performance of their duties and obligations, the exercise of
their rights or any legal action (including but not limited to, costs and
expenses of litigation, and of investigation, attorney's fees, damages,
judgments and amounts paid in settlement) under this Agreement, the Certificates
or the Mortgage Loans (except for amounts due by the Depositor in connection
with the breach of a representation or warranty covering the Mortgage Loans),
including, in the case of the Master Servicer, any indemnity amounts paid by the
Master Servicer to a Servicer pursuant to the applicable Servicing Agreement,
other than any loss, liability or expense (including without limitation,
expenses payable by the Master Servicer under Section 8.06) incurred by reason
of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of his
or its duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of his or its
obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and any of
the directors, officers, employees or agents of either may rely in good faith on
any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted
by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. Neither the Depositor
nor the Master Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or
defend any legal action unless such action is related to its respective duties
under this Agreement and, in its opinion, does not involve it in any expense or
liability; provided, however, that the Depositor or the Master Servicer may in
its 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 if the
Certificateholders offer to the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case
may be, reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and
liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby. In such event, the legal
expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be
expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Estate, and the Depositor or the
Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of the
Certificate Account, and such amounts shall, on the following Distribution Date
or Distribution Dates, be allocated in reduction of distributions on the Class A
Certificates and Class B Certificates in the same manner as Realized Losses are
allocated pursuant to Section 4.02(a).
Section 6.04 Resignation of the Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties
hereby imposed on it except (a) upon appointment of a successor master servicer
and receipt by the Trustee of a letter from each Rating Agency that such a
resignation and appointment will not result in a downgrading of the rating of
any of the Certificates, (b) upon determination that its duties hereunder are no
longer permissible under applicable law, or (c) pursuant to Section 6.06. Any
such determination under clause (b) permitting the resignation of the Master
Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to
the Trustee. No such resignation shall become effective until the Trustee or a
successor master servicer shall have assumed the Master Servicer's
responsibilities, duties, liabilities and obligations hereunder.
Section 6.05 Compensation to the Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive a monthly fee equal
to the Master Servicing Fee, as compensation for services rendered by the Master
Servicer under this Agreement. The Master Servicer also will be entitled to any
late reporting fees paid by a Servicer pursuant to its Servicing Agreement, any
investment income on funds on deposit in the Certificate Account invested in
accordance with Section 3.01(c), any investment income on funds on deposit in
the Payment Account invested in accordance with Section 4.03(a) and any
Liquidation Profits to which a Servicer is not entitled under its Servicing
Agreement.
Section 6.06 Assignment or Delegation of Duties by Master Servicer.
(a) The Master Servicer shall not assign or transfer any of its
rights, benefits or privileges under this Agreement to any other Person, or
delegate to or subcontract with, or authorize or appoint any other Person to
perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by the
Master Servicer without the prior written consent of the Trustee, and any
agreement, instrument or act purporting to effect any such assignment, transfer,
delegation or appointment shall be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject
to Section 6.06(b), the Master Servicer shall have the right without the prior
written consent of the Trustee (i) to assign its rights and delegate its duties
and obligations hereunder; provided, however, that (a) the purchaser or
transferee accepting such assignment or delegation is qualified to service
mortgage loans for Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac, and executes and delivers to the
Trustee an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Trustee, which contains an assumption by such purchaser or transferee of the due
and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be
performed or observed by the Master Servicer hereunder from and after the date
of such agreement; and (b) each applicable Rating Agency's rating of any
Certificates in effect immediately prior to such assignment, sale or transfer is
not reasonably likely to be qualified, downgraded or withdrawn as a result of
such assignment, sale or transfer and the Certificates are not reasonably likely
to be placed on credit review status by any such Rating Agency; and (ii) to
delegate to, subcontract with, authorize, or appoint an affiliate of the Master
Servicer to perform and carry out any duties, covenants or obligations to be
performed and carried out by the Master Servicer under this Agreement and hereby
agrees so to delegate, subcontract, authorize or appoint to an affiliate of the
Master Servicer any duties, covenants or obligations to be performed and carried
out by the Master Servicer to the extent that such duties, covenants or
obligations are to be performed in any state or states in which the Master
Servicer is not authorized to do business as a foreign corporation but in which
the affiliate is so authorized. In no case, however, shall any permitted
assignment and delegation relieve the Master Servicer of any liability to the
Trustee or the Depositor under this Agreement, incurred by it prior to the time
that the conditions contained in clause (i) above are met.
(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to
the extent the Master Servicer engages any affiliate or third party vendor, in
connection with the performance of any of its duties under this Agreement, the
Master Servicer shall immediately notify the Depositor in writing of such
engagement (to the extent it has not already notified the Depositor pursuant to
clause (a) above); provided however, that prior to engaging any affiliate or
third party vendor in connection with the performance of any of its duties under
this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall determine (i) if such affiliates or
third party vendors would be a Servicing Function Participant and (ii) if such
affiliate or third party vendor would be a "servicer" within the meaning of Item
1101 of Regulation AB (an "Additional Master Servicer") and meets the criteria
in Item 1108(a)(2)(i), (ii) or (iii) of Regulation AB. If the Master Servicer
has determined that such affiliates or third party vendors are a Servicing
Function Participant, the Master Servicer shall cause such Servicing Function
Participant to prepare and deliver to the Master Servicer a separate assessment
and attestation report, as contemplated by Section 3.11 of this Agreement. In
addition, if the Master Servicer has determined that any such affiliate or third
party vendor would be an Additional Master Servicer and meets the criteria in
Item 1108(a)(2)(i), (ii) or (iii) of Regulation AB, the Master Servicer shall
cause such Additional Master Servicer to prepare and deliver to the Master
Servicer a separate compliance statement as contemplated by Section 3.05 of this
Agreement. In addition, if the Master Servicer determines any such affiliate or
third party vendor would be a "servicer" within the meaning of Item 1101 of
Regulation AB, the Master Servicer shall not engage such affiliate or third
party vendor unless it provides the Master Servicer and the Depositor the
information required by Section 1108(b) and 1108(c) of Regulation AB prior to
such engagement.
(c) In the event of any assignment of rights or delegation of duties
of the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall report such event on Form 8-K
within four Business Days after the effective date thereof.
Section 6.07 Indemnification of Trustee and Depositor by Master
Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee
and the Depositor and any director, officer or agent thereof against any loss,
liability or expense, including reasonable attorney's fees, arising out of, in
connection with or incurred by reason of (a) willful misfeasance, bad faith or
negligence in the performance of duties of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under
this Agreement, including, but not limited to the Master Servicer's obligation
to deliver any information, report, certification, accountants' letter or other
material required to comply with Regulation AB or (b) any material breach by the
Master Servicer of any of the representations and warranties contained in
Section 2.03(a). Any payment pursuant to this Section made by the Master
Servicer to the Trustee or the Depositor shall be from such entity's own funds,
without reimbursement therefor. The provisions of this Section 6.07 shall
survive the termination of this Agreement.
Section 6.08 Master Servicer Errors and Omissions Policy.
The Master Servicer shall maintain, at all times and at its own
expense, a Master Servicer Errors and Omissions Policy, which policy shall have
such terms and coverage amounts as are comparable to those of errors and
omissions policies maintained by master servicers of mortgage loans generally.
The Master Servicer Errors and Omissions Policy shall insure the
Master Servicer, its successors and assigns, against any losses resulting from
negligence, errors or omissions on the part of officers, employees or other
persons acting on behalf of the Master Servicer in the performance of its duties
as Master Servicer pursuant to this Agreement.
The Master Servicer shall maintain in effect the Master Servicer
Errors and Omissions Policy at all times and the Master Servicer Errors and
Omissions Policy may not be canceled, permitted to lapse or otherwise terminated
without the acquisition of comparable coverage by the Master Servicer.

remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee or
the Depositor, or to the Master Servicer and the Trustee by the holders of
Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 25% of the
aggregate Voting Interest represented by all Certificates;
(iv) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority
having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a trustee,
conservator, receiver or liquidator in any bankruptcy, 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 and unstayed for a period of 60
days;
(v) the Master Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a
trustee, conservator, receiver or liquidator or liquidating committee in
any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and
liabilities, voluntary liquidation or similar proceedings of or relating
to the Master Servicer, or of or relating to all or substantially all of
its property;
(vi) 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 any applicable insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization statute, make
an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or voluntarily suspend
payment of its obligations;
(vii) the Master Servicer shall be dissolved, or shall dispose of
all or substantially all of its assets; or consolidate with or merge into
another entity or shall permit another entity to consolidate or merge into
it, such that the resulting entity does not meet the criteria for a
successor servicer, as specified in Section 6.02 hereof; or
(viii) the Master Servicer and any Subservicer appointed by it
becomes ineligible to service for both Xxxxxx Mae and Xxxxxxx Mac, which
ineligibility continues unremedied for a period of 90 days;
then, and in each and every such case, subject to applicable law, so long as an
Event of Default shall not have been remedied, either the Trustee or the holders
of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66 2/3% of the
aggregate Voting Interest represented by all Certificates, by notice in writing
to the Master Servicer (and to the Trustee if given by the Certificateholders)
may terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under
this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans, but without prejudice to any
rights which the Master Servicer may have to the aggregate Master Servicing Fees
due prior to the date of transfer of the Master Servicer's responsibilities
hereunder, reimbursement of expenses to the extent permitted by this Agreement,
Periodic Advances and other advances of its own funds. Upon receipt by the
Master Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Master
Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates or the
Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant
to and under this Section, subject to the provisions of Section 7.05; 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. The Master Servicer
agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master
Servicer's responsibilities and rights hereunder and shall promptly provide the
Trustee all documents and records reasonably requested by it to enable it to
assume the Master Servicer's functions hereunder and shall promptly also
transfer to the Trustee all amounts which then have been or should have been
deposited in the Certificate Account by the Master Servicer or which are
thereafter received by the Master Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
Section 7.02 Other Remedies of Trustee.
During the continuance of any Event of Default, so long as such
Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Trustee, in addition to the
rights specified in Section 7.01, shall have the right, in its own name as
trustee of an express trust, to take all actions now or hereafter existing at
law, in equity or by statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect
the interests, and enforce the rights and remedies, of the Certificateholders
(including the institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and
other proceedings and the filing of proofs of claim and debt in connection
therewith). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy
provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each
and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy and no
delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or
remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default.
Section 7.03 Directions by Certificateholders and Duties of Trustee
During Event of Default.
During the continuance of any Event of Default, Holders of
Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 25% of the aggregate
Voting Interest represented by all Certificates may direct the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or
exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Agreement;
provided, however, that the Trustee shall be under no obligation to pursue any
such remedy, or to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this
agreement (including, without limitation, (i) the conducting or defending of any
administrative action or litigation hereunder or in relation hereto and (ii) the
terminating of the Master Servicer from its rights and duties as servicer
hereunder) at the request, order or direction of any of the Certificateholders,
unless such Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable
security or indemnity against the cost, expenses and liabilities which may be
incurred therein or thereby and, provided further, that, subject to the
provisions of Section 8.01, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to
follow any such direction if the Trustee, in accordance with an Opinion of
Counsel, determines that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully
be taken or if the Trustee in good faith determines that the action or
proceeding so directed would involve it in personal liability or be unjustly
prejudicial to the nonassenting Certificateholders.
Section 7.04 Action upon Certain Failures of the Master Servicer and
upon Event of Default.
In the event that the Trustee shall have knowledge of any failure of
the Master Servicer specified in Section 7.01(i), (ii) or (iii) which would
become an Event of Default upon the Master Servicer's failure to remedy the same
after notice, the Trustee may, but need not if the Trustee deems it not in the
Certificateholders' best interest, give notice thereof to the Master Servicer;
provided however that, without limiting any remedy as a result of such failure,
the Trustee shall be required to give notice thereof to the Master Servicer in
the case of the failure by the Master Servicer to observe or perform any of its
covenants under Sections 3.05, 3.11, 3.12, 6.02 or 6.06(b) of this Agreement.
For all purposes of this Agreement, in the absence of actual knowledge by a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have
knowledge of any failure of the Master Servicer as specified in Section 7.01(i),
(ii) and (iii) or any Event of Default unless notified thereof in writing by the
Master Servicer or by a Certificateholder.
Section 7.05 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
When the Master Servicer receives notice of termination pursuant to
Section 7.01 or the Trustee receives the resignation of the Master Servicer
evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section 6.04, the Trustee 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 have the rights and powers and be subject to all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Master
Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof and in its capacity as such
successor shall have the same limitation of liability herein granted to the
Master Servicer. In the event that the Trustee is succeeding to the Master
Servicer as the Master Servicer, as compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be
entitled to receive monthly such portion of the Master Servicing Fee, together
with such other master servicing compensation as is agreed to at such time by
the Trustee and the Master Servicer, but in no event more than 25% thereof until
the date of final cessation of the Master Servicer's master servicing activities
hereunder. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling
to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act or to obtain a qualifying bid as
described below, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to
appoint, any housing and home finance institution, bank or mortgage servicing
institution having a net worth of not less than $10,000,000 and meeting such
other standards for a successor master servicer as are set forth herein, 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;
provided, however, that until such a successor master servicer is appointed and
has assumed the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Master Servicer
hereunder, the Trustee shall continue as the successor to the Master Servicer as
provided above. Upon cessation of the Master Servicer's master servicing
activities hereunder, the Trustee or any other successor master servicer shall
be entitled to compensation not to exceed the compensation specified in Section
6.05 hereof, which amount shall include compensation for acting as paying agent.
If the Master Servicer and the Paying Agent are not the same party, the Master
Servicer shall pay the compensation of the Paying Agent. In the event the
Trustee is required to solicit bids as provided above, the Trustee shall
solicit, by public announcement, bids from housing and home finance
institutions, banks and mortgage servicing institutions meeting the
qualifications set forth in the preceding sentence for the purchase of the
master servicing functions. Such public announcement shall specify that the
successor master servicer shall be entitled to the full amount of the Master
Servicing Fee as compensation together with the other master servicing
compensation in the form of late reporting fees or otherwise as provided in
Section 6.05, which amount shall include compensation for acting as paying
agent. Within 30 days after any such public announcement, the Trustee shall
negotiate and effect the sale, transfer and assignment of the master servicing
rights and responsibilities hereunder to the qualified party submitting the
highest qualifying bid. The Trustee shall deduct all costs and expenses of any
public announcement and of any sale, transfer and assignment of the master
servicing rights and responsibilities hereunder from any sum received by the
Trustee from the successor to the Master Servicer in respect of such sale,
transfer and assignment. After such deductions, the remainder of such sum shall
be paid by the Trustee to the Master Servicer at the time of such sale, transfer
and assignment to the Master Servicer's successor. The Trustee and such
successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be
necessary to effectuate any such succession. The Master Servicer agrees to
cooperate with the Trustee and any successor master servicer in effecting the
termination of the Master Servicer's servicing responsibilities and rights
hereunder and shall promptly provide the Trustee or such successor master
servicer, as applicable, all documents and records reasonably requested by it to
enable it to assume the Master Servicer's function hereunder and shall promptly
also transfer to the Trustee or such successor master servicer, as applicable,
all amounts which then have been or should have been deposited in the
Certificate Account by the Master Servicer or which are thereafter received by
the Master Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Neither the Trustee nor
any other successor master servicer shall be deemed to be in default hereunder
by reason of any failure to make, or any delay in making, any distribution
hereunder or any portion thereof caused by (i) the failure of the Master
Servicer to deliver, or any delay in delivering, cash, documents or records to
it, or (ii) restrictions imposed by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction
over the Master Servicer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
Section 7.01 above or this Section 7.05, the Master Servicer shall retain all of
its rights and responsibilities hereunder, and no successor (including the
Trustee) shall succeed thereto, if the assumption thereof by such successor
would cause the rating assigned to any Certificates to be revoked, downgraded or
placed on credit review status (other than for possible upgrading) by either
Rating Agency and the retention thereof by the Master Servicer would avert such
revocation, downgrading or review.
All costs associated with the appointment of a successor master
servicer, to the extent not deducted from any sum received by the Trustee from
the successor master servicer, shall be paid to the Person that incurred them by
the predecessor master servicer. Without limiting the predecessor master
servicer's obligation, if the predecessor master servicer fails to pay such
costs, such costs shall be reimbursed by the Trust.
The predecessor Master Servicer and successor Master Servicer shall
notify the Depositor and Trustee of any such appointment at least two Business
Days prior to the effective date thereof and shall provide the Depositor and the
Trustee with all information required by the Depositor to comply with its
reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K not later than the effective
date of such appointment and the successor Master Servicer shall report such
event on Form 8-K within four business days of the occurrence of such event.
Section 7.06 Notification to Certificateholders.
Upon any termination of the Master Servicer or appointment of a
successor master servicer, in each case as provided herein, the Trustee shall
give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective
addresses appearing in the Certificate Register. The Trustee shall also, within
45 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default known to the Trustee, give
written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective addresses
appearing in the Certificate Register, unless such Event of Default shall have
been cured or waived within said 45 day period.
ARTICLE VIII
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE
Section 8.01 Duties of Trustee.
The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default of which
a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge and after the
curing of all Events of Default which may have occurred, undertakes to perform
such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Agreement. In case an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee shall have actual knowledge has occurred (which has not been cured), the
Trustee, subject to the provisions of Sections 7.01, 7.03, 7.04 and 7.05, shall
exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and use
the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person's own
affairs.
The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates,
statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished
to the Trustee, which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they are in
the form required by this Agreement; provided, however, that the Trustee shall
not be responsible for the accuracy or content of any certificate, statement,
instrument, report, notice or other document furnished by the Master Servicer or
the Servicers hereunder.
No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the
Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure
to act or its own willful misconduct; provided, however, that:
(i) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default of which a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge and after
the curing of all such Events of Default which may have occurred, the
duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the
express provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be liable
except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are
specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or
obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee and, in
the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may
conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness
of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions
furnished to the Trustee, and conforming to the requirements of this
Agreement;
(ii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any
action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in
accordance with the direction of holders of Certificates which evidence in
the aggregate not less than 25% of the Voting Interest represented by all
Certificates relating to the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any
trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Agreement;
(iii) The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made
in good faith by any of its Responsible Officers, unless it shall be
proved that the Trustee or such Responsible Officer, as the case may be,
was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and
(iv) The Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed
to have notice or knowledge of any default or Event of Default unless a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written notice or
obtained actual knowledge thereof. In absence of such notice or actual
knowledge, the Trustee may conclusively assume that there is no default or
Event of Default.
None of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall require the
Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial
liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise
of any of its rights or powers if there is reasonable ground for believing that
repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is
not reasonably assured to it.
Section 8.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
(i) The Trustee may request and rely and shall be protected in
acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officer's
Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal,
bond or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed or presented by the proper party or parties and the manner of
obtaining consents and evidencing the authorization of the execution
thereof shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may
prescribe;
(ii) The Trustee may consult with counsel, and any advice of such
counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization
and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it
hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice or Opinion of
Counsel;
(iii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any action
taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be
authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it
by this Agreement;
(iv) Subject to Section 7.04, the Trustee shall not be accountable,
shall have no liability and makes no representation as to any acts or
omissions hereunder of the Master Servicer until such time as the Trustee
may be required to act as Master Servicer pursuant to Section 7.05 and
thereupon only for the acts or omissions of the Trustee as successor
Master Servicer;
(v) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or
attorneys and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or
negligence on the part of such agent or attorney appointed by any other
party to this Agreement, including without limitation, the appointment of
any custodian;
(vi) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
trusts or powers vested in it by the Agreement, conduct or defend any
litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or
direction of any of the Certificateholders, pursuant to the provisions of
this Agreement, unless such Certificateholders shall have offered to the
Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the
costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or herein
(which in the case of Certificateholders representing in the aggregate not
less than 66-2/3% of the aggregate Voting Interests will be deemed
satisfied by a letter agreement with respect to such costs from such
Certificateholders);
(vii) The right of the Trustee to perform any discretionary act
enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty, and the
Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its negligence of willful
misconduct in the performance of such act; and
(viii) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety
in respect of the execution of the Trust Estate created hereby or the
powers granted hereunder.
Section 8.03 Trustee Not Required to Make Investigation.
Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default of which a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge hereunder and
after the curing of all Events of Default which may have occurred, the Trustee
shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in
any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,
request, consent, order, appraisal, bond, Mortgage, Mortgage Note or other paper
or document (provided the same appears regular on its face), unless requested in
writing to do so by holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less
than 51% of the Voting Interest represented by all Certificates; provided,
however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the
costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such
investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured to the
Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Agreement, the
Trustee may require indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee against
such cost, expense or liability as a condition to so proceeding. The reasonable
expense of every such investigation shall be paid by the Master Servicer or, if
paid by the Trustee shall be repaid by the Master Servicer upon demand from the
Master Servicer's own funds.
Section 8.04 Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates shall be taken
as the statements of the Depositor, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility as
to the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representation for the
correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity
or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the Certificates or of any Mortgage Loan
or related document. Subject to Section 2.04, the Trustee shall not be
accountable for the use or application by the Depositor of any of the
Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or
application of any funds paid to the Master Servicer in respect of the Mortgage
Loans deposited in or withdrawn from the Certificate Account by the Master
Servicer or, in its capacity as trustee, for investment of any such amounts.
Section 8.05 Trustee May Own Certificates.
The Trustee, and any agent thereof, 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 Trustee or such agent and may transact banking
and/or trust business or otherwise deal with the Depositor, the Master Servicer
or their Affiliates.
Section 8.06 The Master Servicer to Pay Fees and Expenses;
Limitation on Liability.
The Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from
time to time, from its own funds, and the Trustee shall be entitled to receive,
reasonable compensation (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in
regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) for all services
rendered by it in the execution of the trusts hereby created and in the exercise
and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Trustee.
In addition, except as otherwise agreed upon in writing by the
Master Servicer and the Trustee, the Trust shall reimburse the Trustee for all
reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee
in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement to the extent
permitted by Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(3), except for (i) any
such expense, disbursement or advance arising from the Trustee's gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct and (ii) any routine ongoing
expenses incurred by the Trustee in the ordinary course of its duties as Trustee
hereunder or for any other expenses.
The Trustee and any director, officer, employee or agent of the
Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification by the Trust Estate and held
harmless against any loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorney's
fees) (a) incurred in connection with any claim or legal action relating to (i)
this Agreement, (ii) the Certificates, or (iii) the performance of any of the
Trustee's duties under this Agreement, unless the loss, liability or expense was
incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the
performance of any of the Trustee's duties under this Agreement and (b)
resulting from any tax or information return which was prepared by, or should
have been prepared by, the applicable Servicer or Master Servicer.
The obligations of the Trust Estate under this Section 8.06 shall
survive the resignation and removal of the Trustee and payment of the
Certificates.
Section 8.07 Eligibility Requirements.
The Trustee hereunder shall at all times (i) be a corporation or
association having its principal office in a state and city acceptable to the
Depositor, organized and doing business under the laws of such state or the
United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust
powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, or shall
be a member of a bank holding system, the aggregate combined capital and surplus
of which is at least $50,000,000, provided that its separate capital and surplus
shall at all times be at least the amount specified in Section 310(a)(2) of the
Trust Indenture Act of 1939, (ii) be subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authority and (iii) have a credit rating or be otherwise
acceptable to the Rating Agencies such that neither of the Rating Agencies would
reduce their respective then current ratings of the Certificates (or have
provided such security from time to time as is sufficient to avoid such
reduction) as evidenced in writing by each Rating Agency. If such corporation or
association publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or
to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then
for the purposes of this Section the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation or association shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In
case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner
and with the effect specified in Section 8.08.
Section 8.08 Resignation and Removal.
The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trust
hereby created by giving written notice of resignation to the Master Servicer,
such resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor trustee.
Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Master Servicer shall promptly
appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of
which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning entity and one copy to its
successor. If no successor trustee shall have been appointed and have accepted
appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the
resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor trustee.
If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of Section 8.07 and shall fail to resign after written
request for its resignation by the Master Servicer, or if at any time the
Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or an order for relief shall have been
entered in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding with respect to such entity,
or a receiver of such entity or of its property shall be appointed, or any
public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of the property or
affairs of the Trustee for the purpose of rehabilitation, conversion or
liquidation, or the Master Servicer shall deem it necessary in order to change
the situs of the Trust Estate for state tax reasons, then the Master Servicer
shall remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument,
in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so
removed and one copy to the successor trustee.
In addition, if (a) the Trustee fails to comply with its obligations
to deliver any assessment of servicing compliance or registered public
accounting firm attestation reports required pursuant to Section 3.11 or (b) any
Servicing Function Participant engaged by the Trustee fails to comply with its
obligations to deliver any assessment of servicing compliance or registered
public accounting firm attestation reports, the Master Servicer, may, after
consultation with the Depositor, remove the Trustee and appoint a successor
trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall
be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee.
The Holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less
than 51% of the Voting Interests represented by all Certificates (except that
any Certificate registered in the name of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or
any affiliate thereof will not be taken into account in determining whether the
requisite Voting Interests has been obtained) may at any time remove the Trustee
and appoint a successor by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate,
signed by such holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete
set of which instruments shall be delivered to the Master Servicer, one complete
set of which shall be delivered to the entity or entities so removed and one
complete set of which shall be delivered to the successor so appointed.
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall become
effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor as provided in Section
8.09.
Section 8.09 Successor.
Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.08 shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Master Servicer and to its predecessor
trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the
resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective, and
such successor, without any further act, deed or reconveyance, shall become
fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its
predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as trustee
herein. The predecessor trustee shall deliver to its successor all documents and
statements held by it hereunder, and the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the
predecessor entity shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other
things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and
confirming in the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and
obligations.
If the predecessor trustee has resigned, or has been removed for
cause, all costs associated with the appointment of a successor trustee shall be
paid to the Person that incurred them by the predecessor trustee. Without
limiting the predecessor trustee's obligation, if the predecessor trustee fails
to pay such costs, such costs shall be reimbursed by the Trust; provided
however, that if the predecessor trustee has been terminated without cause
pursuant to Section 8.08, all reasonable expenses incurred in complying with
this Section 8.09 shall be reimbursed by the Trust to the Person that incurred
them.
No successor shall accept appointment as provided in this Section
unless at the time of such acceptance such successor shall be eligible under the
provisions of Section 8.07.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor as provided in this
Section, the successor trustee shall mail notice of the succession of such
trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as shown in
the Certificate Register.
Section 8.10 Merger or Consolidation.
Any Person into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated, to which it may sell or transfer its corporate
trust business and assets as a whole or substantially as a whole or any Person
resulting from any merger, sale, transfer, conversion or consolidation to which
the Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of such
entity, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided, however, that
(i) such Person shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.07, 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 and (ii) the
Trustee and such successor or surviving Person shall notify the Depositor and
the Master Servicer of any such merger, conversion or consolidation at least two
Business Days prior to the effective date thereof and shall provide the
Depositor and the Master Servicer with all information required by the Depositor
to comply with its reporting obligations under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K not later
than the effective date of such merger, conversion or consolidation and the
Master Servicer shall report such event on Form 8-K within four business days of
the occurrence of such event.
Section 8.11 Authenticating Agent.
The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent, which shall be
authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee in authenticating Certificates.
Wherever reference is made in this Agreement to the authentication of
Certificates by the Trustee or the Trustee's countersignature, such reference
shall be deemed to include authentication on behalf of the Trustee by the
Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of
the Trustee by the Authenticating Agent. The Authenticating Agent must be
acceptable to the Depositor and the Master Servicer and must be a corporation
organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or
of any state, having a principal office and place of business in a state and
city acceptable to the Depositor and the Master Servicer, having a combined
capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000, authorized under such laws to do a
trust business and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authorities.
Any corporation into which the Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Authenticating Agent
shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency business
of the Authenticating Agent, shall be the Authenticating Agent without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee
or the Authenticating Agent.
The Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving at least
30 days' advance written notice of resignation to the Trustee, the Depositor and
the Master Servicer. Except with respect to Xxxxx Fargo Bank, for so long as
Xxxxx Fargo Bank is acting as the Master Servicer, the Trustee may at any time
terminate the agency of the Authenticating Agent by giving written notice
thereof to the Authenticating Agent, the Depositor and the Master Servicer. Upon
receiving a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any
time the Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 8.11, the Trustee promptly shall appoint a successor
Authenticating Agent, which shall be acceptable to the Master Servicer, and
shall give written notice of such appointment to the Depositor, and shall mail
notice of such appointment to all Certificateholders. Any successor
Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become
vested with all the rights, powers, duties and responsibilities of its
predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Authenticating
Agent herein. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless
eligible under the provisions of this Section 8.11.
The Authenticating Agent shall have no responsibility or liability
for any action taken by it as such at the direction of the Trustee. Any
reasonable compensation paid to the Authenticating Agent shall be payable by the
Master Servicer.
Section 8.12 Separate Trustees and Co-Trustees.
The Trustee shall have the power from time to time to appoint one or
more persons or corporations to act either as co-trustees jointly with the
Trustee, or as separate trustees, for the purpose of holding title to,
foreclosing or otherwise taking action with respect to any Mortgage Loan outside
the state where the Trustee has its principal place of business, where such
separate trustee or co-trustee is necessary or advisable (or the Trustee is
advised by the Master Servicer that such separate trustee or co-trustee is
necessary or advisable) under the laws of any state in which a Mortgaged
Property is located or for the purpose of otherwise conforming to any legal
requirement, restriction or condition in any state in which a Mortgaged Property
is located or in any state in which any portion of the Trust Estate is located.
The Master Servicer shall advise the Trustee when, in its good faith opinion, a
separate trustee or co-trustee is necessary or advisable as aforesaid. The
separate trustees or co-trustees so appointed shall be trustees for the benefit
of all of the Certificateholders and shall have such powers, rights and remedies
as shall be specified in the instrument of appointment; provided, however, that
no such appointment shall, or shall be deemed to, constitute the appointee an
agent of the Trustee. The Depositor and the Master Servicer shall join in any
such appointment, but such joining shall not be necessary for the effectiveness
of such appointment.
Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted
by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:
(i) all powers, duties, obligations and rights conferred upon the
Trustee, in respect of the receipt, custody and payment of moneys shall be
exercised solely by the Trustee;
(ii) all other rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or
imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised
or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee
jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in
which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee
hereunder or as successor to the Master Servicer hereunder) the Trustee
shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which
event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding
of title to the Trust Estate or any portion thereof in any such
jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee or
co-trustee;
(iii) no separate trustee or co-trustee hereunder shall be
personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other separate
trustee or co-trustee hereunder; and
(iv) the Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove
any separate trustee or co-trustee so appointed by it, if such resignation
or removal does not violate the other terms of this Agreement.
Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be
deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees,
as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any
separate trustee, co-trustee, or custodian shall refer to this Agreement and the
conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its
acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property
specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee, or
separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this
Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to
the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the
Trustee. Every such instrument shall be furnished to the Trustee.
Any separate trustee, co-trustee, or custodian may, at any time,
constitute the Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and
authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in
respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee
or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all
of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be
exercised by the Trustee to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment
of a new or successor trustee.
No separate trustee or co-trustee hereunder shall be required to
meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.07
hereunder and no notice to Certificateholders of the appointment thereof shall
be required under Section 8.09 hereof.
The Trustee agrees to instruct its co-trustees, if any, to the
extent necessary to fulfill such entity's obligations hereunder.
The fees of any co-trustee whose appointment is necessary or
advisable for (i) conforming to any legal requirement, restriction or condition
in any state in which any Mortgaged Property or any portion of the Trust Estate
is located, will be paid by the Master Servicer, without reimbursement from the
Trust and (ii) any reason other than contemplated by clause (i), will be paid by
the Trustee, without reimbursement from the Trust. Expenses will be reimbursable
to the co-trustees to the extent, and in accordance with the standards,
specified in Section 8.06 hereof.
Section 8.13 Tax Matters; Compliance with REMIC Provisions.
(a) Each of the Trustee and the Master Servicer covenants and agrees
that it shall perform its duties hereunder in a manner consistent with the REMIC
Provisions and shall not knowingly take any action or fail to take any other
action that would (i) affect the determination of the Trust Estate's status as
two separate REMICs; or (ii) cause the imposition of any federal, state or local
income, prohibited transaction, contribution or other tax on any of the
Upper-Tier REMIC, the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Trust Estate. The Master Servicer,
or, in the case of any tax return or other action required by law to be
performed directly by the Trustee, the Trustee, shall (i) prepare or cause to be
prepared, timely cause to be signed by the Trustee and file or cause to be filed
annual federal and applicable state and local income tax returns for each of the
Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC using a calendar year as the taxable
year and the accrual method of accounting; (ii) in the first such federal tax
return, make, or cause to be made, elections satisfying the requirements of the
REMIC Provisions, on behalf of the Trust Estate, to treat each of the Upper-Tier
REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC as a REMIC; (iii) prepare, execute and forward,
or cause to be prepared, executed and forwarded, to the Certificateholders all
information reports or tax returns required with respect to the Trust Estate, as
and when required to be provided to the Certificateholders, and to the Internal
Revenue Service and any other relevant governmental taxing authority in
accordance with the REMIC Provisions and any other applicable federal, state or
local laws, including without limitation information reports relating to
"original issue discount" and "market discount" as defined in the Code based
upon the issue prices, prepayment assumption and cash flows provided by the
Depositor to the Master Servicer and calculated on a monthly basis by using the
issue prices of the Certificates; (iv) make available information necessary for
the application of any tax imposed on transferors of residual interests to
"disqualified organizations" (as defined in the REMIC Provisions); (v) file Form
8811 and apply for an Employee Identification Number with a Form SS-4 or any
other permissible method and respond to inquiries by Certificateholders or their
nominees concerning information returns, reports or tax returns; (vi) maintain
(or cause to be maintained by the Servicers) such records relating to the
Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC, including but not limited to the
income, expenses, individual Mortgage Loans (including REO Mortgage Loans),
other assets and liabilities of each REMIC, and the fair market value and
adjusted basis of the property of each REMIC determined at such intervals as may
be required by the Code, as may be necessary to prepare the foregoing returns or
information reports; (vii) exercise reasonable care not to allow the creation of
any "interests" in either of the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC within
the meaning of Code Section 860D(a)(2) other than the interests in the
Upper-Tier REMIC represented by the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4,
Class A-5, Class A-6, Class A-7, Class A-8, Class A-IO, Class B-1, Class B-2,
Class B-3, Class B-4, Class B-5 and Class B-6 Certificates and the Class A-R
Interest, and the interests in the Lower-Tier REMIC represented by the Class
A-L1 Interest, Class A-L2 Interest, Class A-LUR Interest, Class B-L1 Interest,
Class B-L2 Interest, Class B-L3 Interest, Class B-L4 Interest, Class B-L5
Interest and Class B-L6 Interest and the Class A-LR Interest; (viii) exercise
reasonable care not to allow the occurrence of any "prohibited transactions"
within the meaning of Code Section 860F(a), unless the Master Servicer shall
have provided an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee that such occurrence would
not (a) result in a taxable gain, (b) otherwise subject any of the Upper-Tier
REMIC, the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Trust Estate to tax or (c) cause the Trust
Estate to fail to qualify as two separate REMICs; (ix) exercise reasonable care
not to allow either of the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to receive
income from the performance of services or from assets not permitted under the
REMIC Provisions to be held by a REMIC; and (x) pay (on behalf of the Upper-Tier
REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC) the amount of any federal income tax, including,
without limitation, prohibited transaction taxes, taxes on net income from
foreclosure property, and taxes on certain contributions to a REMIC after the
Startup Day, imposed on the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC, as the
case may be, when and as the same shall be due and payable (but such obligation
shall not prevent the Master Servicer or any other appropriate Person from
contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the
Master Servicer from withholding or depositing payment of such tax, if permitted
by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The Master Servicer shall be
entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to Section 3.02 for any taxes paid by it
pursuant to clause (x) of the preceding sentence, except to the extent that such
taxes are imposed as a result of the bad faith, willful misfeasance or gross
negligence of the Master Servicer in the performance of its obligations
hereunder.
In order to enable the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case
may be, to perform its duties as set forth above, the Depositor shall provide,
or cause to be provided, to the Master Servicer within ten days after the
Closing Date all information or data that the Master Servicer determines to be
relevant for tax purposes to the valuations and offering prices of the
Certificates, including, without limitation, the price, yield, prepayment
assumption and projected cash flows of each Class of Certificates and the
Mortgage Loans in the aggregate. Thereafter, the Depositor shall provide to the
Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, promptly upon request
therefor, any such additional information or data that the Master Servicer or
the Trustee, as the case may be, may from time to time request in order to
enable the Master Servicer to perform its duties as set forth above. The
Depositor hereby indemnifies the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may
be, for any losses, liabilities, damages, claims or expenses of the Master
Servicer or the Trustee arising from any errors or miscalculations by the Master
Servicer or the Trustee pursuant to this Section that result from any failure of
the Depositor to provide, or to cause to be provided, accurate information or
data to the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, on a timely
basis. The Master Servicer hereby indemnifies the Depositor and the Trustee for
any losses, liabilities, damages, claims or expenses of the Depositor or the
Trustee arising from the Master Servicer's willful misfeasance, bad faith or
gross negligence in preparing any of the federal, state and local tax returns of
either REMIC as described above. In the event that the Trustee prepares any of
the federal, state and local tax returns of either REMIC as described above, the
Trustee hereby indemnifies the Depositor and the Master Servicer for any losses,
liabilities, damages, claims or expenses of the Depositor or the Master Servicer
arising from the Trustee's willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in
connection with such preparation.
(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each
of the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall pay from its own funds, without any
right of reimbursement therefor, the amount of any costs, liabilities and
expenses incurred by the Trust Estate (including, without limitation, any and
all federal, state or local taxes, including taxes imposed on "prohibited
transactions" within the meaning of the REMIC Provisions) if and to the extent
that such costs, liabilities and expenses arise from a failure of the Master
Servicer or the Trustee, respectively, to perform its obligations under this
Section 8.13.
The Holder of the Residual Certificate is hereby designated as the
"tax matters person" for the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC within
the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860F-4(d). The "tax matters
person" shall have the same duties with respect to the applicable REMIC as those
of a "tax matters partner" under Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of Subtitle F of the
Code. By its acceptance of the Residual Certificate, such Holder irrevocably
appoints the Master Servicer (and the Master Servicer hereby agrees to act) as
agent to perform all of the duties of the "tax matters person."
Section 8.14 Monthly Advances.
In the event that Xxxxx Fargo Bank in its capacity as Servicer fails
to make a Periodic Advance required to be made pursuant to the Xxxxx Fargo Bank
Servicing Agreement on or before the Distribution Date, the Trustee shall make a
Periodic Advance as required by Section 3.03 hereof; provided, however, the
Trustee shall not be required to make such Periodic Advances if prohibited by
law or if it determines that such Periodic Advance would be a Nonrecoverable
Advance. With respect to those Periodic Advances which should have been made by
Xxxxx Fargo Bank, the Trustee shall be entitled, pursuant to Section 3.02(a)(i),
(ii) or (v) hereof, to be reimbursed from the Certificate Account for Periodic
Advances and Nonrecoverable Advances made by it.
Section 8.15 Indemnification of the Master Servicer and Depositor by
the Trustee
The Trustee shall indemnify and hold harmless the Master Servicer
and the Depositor and any director, officer or agent thereof against any loss,
liability or expense, including reasonable attorney's fees, arising out of, in
connection with or incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
negligence in the performance of duties of the Trustee or by reason of reckless
disregard of its obligation to deliver any information, report, certification,
accountants' letter or other material required to comply with Regulation AB. Any
payment pursuant to this Section made by the Trustee to the Master Servicer or
the Depositor shall be from such entity's own funds, without reimbursement
therefor. The provisions of this Section 8.15 shall survive the termination of
this Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no
event shall the Trustee be liable for any special, indirect or consequential
loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost
profits) resulting from the Trustee's nonperformance of its duties or
obligations to deliver any information, report, certification, accountants'
letter or other material required to comply with Regulation AB, even if the
Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless
of the form of action.
Section 8.16 Trustee Errors and Omissions Policy.
The Trustee shall maintain, at all times and at its own expense, a
Trustee Errors and Omissions Policy, which policy shall have such terms and
coverage amounts as are comparable to those of errors and omissions policies
maintained by trustees generally.
The Trustee Errors and Omissions Policy shall insure the Trustee,
its successors and assigns, against any losses resulting from negligence, errors
or omissions on the part of officers, employees or other persons acting on
behalf of the Trustee in the performance of its duties as Trustee pursuant to
this Agreement.
The Trustee shall maintain in effect the Trustee Errors and
Omissions Policy at all times and the Trustee Errors and Omissions Policy may
not be canceled, permitted to lapse or otherwise terminated without thirty
Business Days' prior written notice by registered mail to the Master Servicer
and the Depositor.
ARTICLE IX
TERMINATION
Section 9.01 Termination upon Purchase by the Depositor or
Liquidation of All Mortgage Loans.
Subject to Section 9.02, the respective obligations and
responsibilities of the parties to this Agreement created hereby (other than the
obligation of the Paying Agent to make certain payments after the Final
Distribution Date to Certificateholders and the obligation of the Master
Servicer to send certain notices as hereinafter set forth and the tax reporting
obligations under Sections 4.05 and 8.13 hereof) shall terminate upon the last
action required to be taken by the Paying Agent on the Final Distribution Date
pursuant to this Article IX following the earlier of (i) the purchase by the
Depositor of all Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any
Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Estate at a price equal to the sum of (x)
100% of the unpaid principal balance of each Mortgage Loan (other than any REO
Mortgage Loan) as of the Final Distribution Date, (y) the fair market value of
the Mortgaged Property related to any REO Mortgage Loan, plus with respect to
clauses (x) and (y) any accrued and unpaid interest through the last day of the
month preceding the month of such purchase at the applicable Mortgage Interest
Rate and (z) any Reimbursement Amount owed to the Trust pursuant to Section 2.03
and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect
thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Estate (including for
this purpose the discharge of any Mortgagor under a defaulted Mortgage Loan on
which a Servicer is not obligated to foreclose due to environmental impairment)
or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall the
trust created hereby continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death
of the last survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late
ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. Xxxxx, living on the date
hereof.
The right of the Depositor to purchase all the assets of the Trust
Estate pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph is subject to Section
9.02 and conditioned upon (A) the Pool Scheduled Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loans as of the Final Distribution Date being less than the amount set
forth in Section 11.21 and (B) the sum of clause (i)(x) and (y) of the preceding
paragraph being less than or equal to the aggregate fair market value of the
Mortgage Loans (other than any REO Mortgage Loans) and the Mortgaged Properties
related to the REO Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that this clause (B) shall
not apply to any purchase by the Depositor if, at the time of the purchase, the
Depositor is no longer subject to regulation by the Office of the Comptroller of
the Currency, the FDIC, the Federal Reserve or the Office of Thrift Supervision.
Fair market value for purposes of this paragraph and the preceding paragraph
will be determined by the Master Servicer as of the close of business on the
third Business Day next preceding the date upon which notice of any termination
is furnished to Certificateholders pursuant to the third paragraph of this
Section 9.01. In the case of any purchase by the Depositor pursuant to said
clause (i) of the preceding paragraph, the Depositor shall give the Trustee, the
Paying Agent and Master Servicer notice of its intent to purchase the assets of
the Trust by the fifth day of the month of the Final Distribution Date or such
later date as shall be acceptable to the Trustee and Master Servicer. The
Depositor or Master Servicer shall in such case provide to the Trustee the
confirmation of deposit of the purchase price required by Section 3.04 and the
Trustee or the Custodian shall, promptly following payment of the purchase price
and upon receipt from the Master Servicer of a Request for Release, release to
the Depositor the Owner Mortgage Loan Files and Retained Mortgage Loan Files, if
applicable, pertaining to the Mortgage Loans being purchased.
Notice of any termination, specifying the Final Distribution Date
(which shall be a date that would otherwise be a Distribution Date) upon which
the Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates to the Paying Agent for
payment of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by
the Paying Agent by letter to Certificateholders and the Trustee mailed not
earlier than the 15th day of the month preceding the month of such final
distribution and not later than the twentieth day of the month of such final
distribution specifying (A) the Final Distribution Date upon which final payment
of the Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of Certificates
at the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent therein designated, (B) the
amount of any such final payment and (C) that the Record Date otherwise
applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made
(except in the case of any Class A Certificate surrendered on a prior
Distribution Date) pursuant to Section 4.01 only upon presentation and surrender
of the Certificates at the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent therein
specified. If the Depositor is exercising its right to purchase, the Depositor
shall deposit in the Certificate Account on or before the Final Distribution
Date in immediately available funds an amount equal to the purchase price for
the assets of the Trust Estate computed as above provided. Failure to give
notice of termination as described herein shall not entitle a Certificateholder
to any interest beyond the interest payable on the Final Distribution Date.
Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Paying
Agent shall distribute to Certificateholders on the Final Distribution Date in
proportion to their respective Percentage Interests an amount equal to (i) as to
the Classes of Class A Certificates, the respective Principal Balance together
with any related Class A Unpaid Interest Shortfall and one month's interest in
an amount equal to the respective Interest Accrual Amount, (ii) as to the
Classes of Class B Certificates, the respective Principal Balance together with
any related Class B Unpaid Interest Shortfall and one month's interest in an
amount equal to the respective Interest Accrual Amount and (iii) as to the
Residual Certificate, the amounts, if any, which remain on deposit in the
Upper-Tier Certificate Account and the Certificate Account, respectively (other
than amounts retained to meet claims) after application pursuant to clauses (i)
and (ii) above and payment to the Master Servicer of any amounts it is entitled
as reimbursement or otherwise hereunder. Such amount shall be distributed in
respect of interest and principal in respect of the Uncertificated Lower-Tier
Interests in the manner specified in Section 4.01(a). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the price paid pursuant to clause (i) of the first paragraph of
this Section 9.01, after reimbursement to the Servicers, the Master Servicer and
the Trustee of any Periodic Advances, is insufficient to pay in full the amounts
set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of this paragraph, then any shortfall in the
amount available for distribution to Certificateholders shall be allocated in
reduction of the amounts otherwise distributable on the Final Distribution Date
in the same manner as Realized Losses are allocated pursuant to Sections 4.02(a)
and (e) hereof. Such distribution on the Final Distribution Date shall be in
lieu of the distribution otherwise required to be made on such Distribution Date
in respect of each Class of Certificates.
In the event that all of the Certificateholders shall not surrender
their Certificates for final payment and cancellation within three months
following the Final Distribution Date, the Paying Agent shall on such date cause
all funds, if any, in the Payment Account not distributed in final distribution
to Certificateholders to be withdrawn therefrom and credited to the remaining
Certificateholders by depositing such funds in a separate escrow account for the
benefit of such Certificateholders. The Paying Agent shall give a second written
notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for
cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within
three months after the second notice all the Certificates shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation, the Paying Agent may take appropriate steps, or
may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining
Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates, and the cost
thereof shall be paid out of the funds on deposit in such escrow account.
Section 9.02 Additional Termination Requirements.
In the event of a termination of the Trust Estate upon the exercise
by the Depositor of its purchase option as provided in Section 9.01, the Trust
Estate shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional
requirements, unless the Trustee and the Master Servicer have received an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that any other manner of termination (i) will
constitute a "qualified liquidation" of the Trust Estate within the meaning of
Code Section 860F(a)(4)(A) and (ii) will not subject either the Upper-Tier REMIC
or the Lower-Tier REMIC to federal tax or cause the Trust Estate to fail to
qualify as two separate REMICs at any time that any Certificates are
outstanding:
(i) The notice given by the Paying Agent under Section 9.01 shall
provide that such notice constitutes the adoption of a plan of complete
liquidation of the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC as of the
date of such notice (or, if earlier, the date on which the first such
notice is mailed to Certificateholders). The Master Servicer shall also
specify such date in a statement attached to the final tax returns of the
Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC; and
(ii) At or after the time of adoption of such a plan of complete
liquidation and at or prior to the Final Distribution Date, the Trustee,
shall sell all of the assets of the Trust Estate to the Depositor for cash
at the purchase price specified in Section 9.01 and the Paying Agent shall
distribute such cash within 90 days of such adoption in the manner
specified in Section 9.01.
ARTICLE X
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Section 10.01 Amendment.
(a) This Agreement or the Custodial Agreement may be amended from
time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee without the
consent of any of the Certificateholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or mistake,
(ii) to correct or supplement any provisions herein or therein which may be
inconsistent with any other provisions herein or therein or in the related
Prospectus, (iii) to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such
extent as shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Trust Estate
as two separate REMICs at all times that any Certificates are outstanding or to
avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any federal tax on the Trust
Estate, the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Upper-Tier REMIC pursuant to the Code that
would be a claim against the Trust Estate, provided that (a) the Trustee has
received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such action is necessary or
desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of the
imposition of any such tax and (b) such action shall not, as evidenced by such
Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of
any Certificateholder, (iv) to conform the obligations of the parties under this
Agreement, or to add obligations of the parties to this Agreement, if necessary,
to comply with the requirements of Regulation AB, (v) to change the timing
and/or nature of deposits into the Upper-Tier Certificate Account and the
Certificate Account provided that such change shall not, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of
any Certificateholder, (vi) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of
Section 5.02 or any other provisions hereof restricting transfer of the
Certificates, provided that the Depositor for purposes of Section 5.02 has
determined in its sole discretion that any such modifications to this Agreement
will neither adversely affect the rating on the Certificates nor give rise to a
risk that either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC or any of the
Certificateholders will be subject to a tax caused by a transfer to a
non-permitted transferee, (vii) to make certain provisions with respect to the
denominations of, and the manner of payments on, certain Classes of Certificates
initially retained by the Depositor or an affiliate of the Depositor and (viii)
to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under
this Agreement or such Custodial Agreement which shall not be materially
inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, provided that such action
shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any
material respect the interests of any Certificateholder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any amendment pursuant to clause (v) or (viii) shall not be deemed to
adversely affect in any material respect the interest of Certificateholders and
no Opinion of Counsel to that effect shall be required if the person requesting
the amendment instead obtains a letter from each Rating Agency stating that the
amendment would not result in the downgrading or withdrawal of the respective
ratings then assigned to the Certificates.
This Agreement or the Custodial Agreement may also be amended from
time to time by the Depositor, 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 aggregate Voting Interests of each Class of Certificates affected
thereby, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner
or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or such Custodial
Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of
Certificates of such Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (i)
reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on
Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed on any Certificate without
the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (ii) adversely affect in any
material respect the interest of the Holders of Certificates of any Class in a
manner other than as described in clause (i) hereof without the consent of
Holders of Certificates of such Class evidencing, as to such Class, Voting
Interests aggregating not less than 66-2/3% or (iii) reduce the aforesaid
percentage of Certificates of any Class the Holders of which are required to
consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all
Certificates of such Class then outstanding.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall
have first received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment will
not subject either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to tax or cause
either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a
REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding.
Promptly after the execution of any amendment requiring the consent
of Certificateholders, the Trustee shall furnish written notification of the
substance of such amendment to each Certificateholder.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders
under this Section 10.01(a) to approve the particular form of any proposed
amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the
substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the
authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to
such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.
The Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Custodian of any
amendment or supplement to this Agreement and furnish the Custodian with written
copies thereof.
(b) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, if any
of the Mortgage Loans are Type 2 Mortgage Loans, as indicated on the Mortgage

XXXXX FARGO ASSET SECURITIES CORPORATION
MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATES
SERIES 2006-AR11
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
issued in several Classes designated as Mortgage 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 funds are
advanced with respect to any Mortgage Loan by a Servicer, the Master Servicer or
the Trustee, such advances are reimbursable to such Servicer, the Master
Servicer or the Trustee 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 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 reimbursement to a Servicer, the
Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, of advances made by such
Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and obligations of
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master
Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66 2/3% of the Voting 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 hereof 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.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the
Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of
transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Certificate Registrar, duly
endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, duly
executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in
writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of 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 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 Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection
therewith.
The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent
and the Certificate Registrar, and any agent of the Depositor, the Master
Servicer, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar, may treat
the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for
all purposes, and neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the
Certificate Registrar nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.
The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the
Certificates and the Trust Estate created thereby shall terminate upon the last
action required to be taken by the Paying Agent on the Final Distribution Date
pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the payment or other
liquidation (or advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan subject
thereto or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in
lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the purchase by the Depositor
from the Trust Estate of all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired
in respect of such Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that the Trust Estate will
in no event continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the
last survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of
the United States to the Court of St. Xxxxx, living on the date of the
Agreement. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the Depositor to
purchase all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of
any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The
exercise of such option will effect early retirement of the Certificates, the
Depositor's right to exercise such option being subject to the Pool Scheduled
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Distribution Date upon which
the proceeds of such repurchase are distributed being less than ten percent of
the Cut-Off Date Aggregate Principal Balance.

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 Depositor 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 Depositor, the
Master Servicer and the Custodian hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
Definitions
Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein
shall have the meanings assigned in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, unless
otherwise required by the context herein.
ARTICLE II
Custody of Mortgage Documents
Section 2.1. Custodian to Act as Agent; Acceptance of Custodial
Files. Subject to Section 2.3 hereof, the Custodian, as the duly appointed agent
of the Trustee for these purposes, declares that it holds and will hold the
documents delivered to it pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and any other documents constituting part of the Owner Mortgage Loan
File or Retained Mortgage Loan File received on or subsequent to the date hereof
(the "Custodial Files") as agent for the Trustee, in trust, for the use and
benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Depositor shall give
written notice to the Custodian within 10 business days of the occurrence of a
Document Transfer Event.
Section 2.2. Recordation of Assignments. Unless an assignment of a
Mortgage is not required to be recorded in accordance with Section 2.01 of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, if any Custodial File includes one or more
assignments to the Trustee of Mortgage Notes that have not been recorded, each
such assignment shall be delivered by the Custodian to the Depositor for the
purpose of recording it in the appropriate public office for real property
records, and the Depositor, at no expense to the Custodian, shall promptly cause
to be recorded in the appropriate public office for real property records each
such assignment and, upon receipt thereof from such public office, shall return
each such assignment to the Custodian.
Section 2.3. Review of Custodial Files. The Custodian agrees, for
the benefit of Certificateholders, to review, in accordance with the provisions
of Section 2.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, each Custodial File and
to provide the initial and final certifications in the forms of Exhibits N and O
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement in accordance with the provisions
thereof. If in performing the review required by this Section 2.3 the Custodian
finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Custodial File to be
missing or defective, the Custodian shall follow the procedures specified in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
Section 2.4. Notification of Breaches of Representations and
Warranties. Upon discovery by the Custodian of a breach of any representation or
warranty made by the Depositor or the Master Servicer as set forth in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Custodian shall follow the procedures
specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
Section 2.5. Custodian to Cooperate; Release of Custodial Files.
Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Master
Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner
customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer or applicable Servicer shall
immediately deliver to the Custodian two copies of a Request for Release or such
request in an electronic format acceptable to the Custodian and shall request
delivery to it of the Custodial File. The Custodian agrees, within five business
days of receipt of such Request for Release, to release the related Custodial
File to the Master Servicer or applicable Servicer.
From time to time as is appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure
of any Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer or applicable Servicer shall deliver
to the Custodian two copies of a Request for Release of a Servicing Officer
requesting that possession of the Custodial File be released to the Servicer or
Master Servicer and certifying as to the reason for such release. Upon receipt
of the foregoing, the Custodian shall deliver the Custodial File to the Master
Servicer or applicable Servicer. The Master Servicer or applicable Servicer
shall cause each Custodial File therein so released to be returned to the
Custodian when the need therefor by the Master Servicer or applicable 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
Certificate Account to the extent required by the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement or (ii) the Custodial 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. In
the event of the liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer or
applicable Servicer shall deliver two copies of a Request for Release with
respect thereto to the Custodian upon deposit of the related Liquidation
Proceeds in the Certificate Account to the extent required by the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.
The Custodian shall maintain records (i) identifying all requests
made by Servicers or the Master Servicer (other than requests relating to
Custodial Files already released by the Custodian) for the release by the
Custodian of Custodial Files with respect to the Mortgage Loans and (ii) all
Custodial Files released by the Custodian.
Section 2.6. Assumption Agreements. In the event that any assumption
agreement or substitution of liability 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 shall
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 copy shall be added to the related Custodial File
and, for all purposes, shall be considered a part of such Custodial File to the
same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting parts thereof.
ARTICLE III
Concerning the Custodian
Section 3.1. Custodian a Bailee and Agent of the Trustee. With
respect to each Mortgage Note, Mortgage and other documents constituting each
Custodial File which are delivered to the Custodian, the Custodian is
exclusively the bailee and agent of the Trustee, holds such documents for the
benefit of 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. All provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
setting forth duties of the Custodian in more detail are hereby incorporated by
reference into this Agreement. Except upon compliance with the provisions of
Section 2.5 of this Agreement and the provisions of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, no Mortgage Note or other document constituting a part of a Custodial
File shall be delivered by the Custodian to the Depositor or the Master Servicer
or otherwise released from the possession of the Custodian.
Section 3.2. Indemnification. The Depositor hereby agrees to
indemnify and hold the Custodian harmless from and against all claims,
liabilities, losses, actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity, or any
other expenses, fees or charges of any character or nature, which the Custodian
may incur or with which the Custodian may be threatened by reasons of its acting
as custodian under this Agreement, including indemnification of the Custodian
against any and all expenses, including attorney's fees if counsel for the
Custodian has been approved by the Depositor, and the cost of defending any
action, suit or proceedings or resisting any claim. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, it is specifically understood and agreed that in the event any such
claim, liability, loss, action, suit or proceeding or other expense, fees, or
charge shall have been caused by reason of any negligent act, negligent failure
to act, or willful misconduct on the part of the Custodian, or which shall
constitute a willful breach of its duties hereunder, the indemnification
provisions of this Agreement shall not apply.
Section 3.3. 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.
Section 3.4. 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.
Section 3.5. 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 notice of resignation, the Trustee shall either take
custody of the Custodial Files itself and give prompt notice thereof to the
Depositor, the Master Servicer 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 Custodial Files
and no successor Custodian shall have been so appointed and have accepted
resignation, the resigning Custodian may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Custodian.
The Trustee, upon 60 days written notice, may remove the Custodian.
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 and shall be able to satisfy the other
requirements contained in Section 3.7.
Any resignation or removal of the Custodian and appointment of a
successor Custodian pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 3.5 shall
become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Custodian. The
Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Depositor and the Master Servicer of the
appointment of any successor Custodian. No successor Custodian shall have been
appointed and accepted appointment by the Trustee without the prior approval of
the Depositor and the Master Servicer.
Section 3.6. 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.
The Custodian and such successor or surviving Person shall notify
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee of any such merger,
conversion or consolidation at least two Business Days prior to the effective
date thereof and shall provide the Depositor and the Master Servicer with all
information required by the Depositor to comply with its reporting obligations
not later than the effective date of such merger, conversion or consolidation
(unless giving prior notice would be prohibited by applicable law or by a
confidentiality agreement, in which case notice shall be given by 12 noon
eastern time one Business Day after such merger or consolidation).
Section 3.7. 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 $10,000,000 and is qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in
which it will hold any Custodial File.

underwriter or initial purchaser of the Certificates, each Person who controls
any of such parties and the Depositor (within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act); and the respective present
and former directors, officers, employees and agents of each of the foregoing
and of the Depositor (each such entity, an "Indemnified Party"), and shall hold
each of them harmless from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments, and any other
costs, fees and expenses that any of them may sustain arising out of or based
upon:
(i) (A) any untrue statement of a material fact contained or
alleged to be contained in any information, report, certification,
accountants' letter or other material provided in written or
electronic form under this Section 4.1 or Section 4.2 hereof by or
on behalf of the Custodian, or provided under Sections 4.1 or 4.2 by
or on behalf of any Subcontractor (collectively, the "Custodian
Information"), or (B) the omission or alleged omission to state in
the Custodian Information a material fact required to be stated in
the Custodian Information or necessary in order to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading; provided, by way of clarification,
that clause (B) of this paragraph shall be construed solely by
reference to the Custodian Information and not to any other
information communicated in connection with a sale or purchase of
securities, without regard to whether the Custodian Information or
any portion thereof is presented together with or separately from
such other information; or
(ii) any failure by the Custodian or any Subcontractor engaged
by the Custodian to deliver any information, report, certification,
accountants' letter or other material when and as required under
Sections 4.1 or 4.2, including any failure by the Custodian to
identify pursuant to Section 4.2 any Subcontractor "participating in
the servicing function" within the meaning of Item 1122 of
Regulation AB.
In the case of any failure of performance described in clause (ii) of this
Section, the Custodian shall promptly reimburse the Master Servicer and the
Depositor, as applicable, for all costs reasonably incurred by each such party
in order to obtain the information, report, certification, accountants' letter
or other material not delivered as required by the Custodian or any
Subcontractor. If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable to hold
harmless any Indemnified Party, then the Custodian agrees that it shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result
of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of such Indemnified Party in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such Indemnified
Party on the one hand and the Custodian on the other in connection with a breach
of the Custodian's obligations under this Section 4.1 or the Custodian's
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith.
4.2 Engagement of Affiliates or Third-Parties. The Custodian shall
not hire or otherwise utilize the services of any Subcontractor to fulfill any
of the obligations of the Custodian as servicer under this Agreement unless the
Custodian complies with the provisions of this Section.
It shall not be necessary for the Custodian to seek the consent of
the Master Servicer or the Depositor to the utilization of any Subcontractor.
The Custodian shall promptly upon request provide to the Master Servicer (or any
designee of Master Servicer) a written description (in form and substance
satisfactory to the Master Servicer and the Depositor) of the role and function
of each Subcontractor utilized by the Custodian, specifying (i) the identity of
each such Subcontractor, (ii) which (if any) of such Subcontractors are
"participating in the servicing function" within the meaning of Item 1122 of
Regulation AB, and (iii) which elements of the Servicing Criteria will be
addressed in assessments of compliance provided by each Subcontractor identified
pursuant to clause (ii) of this paragraph.
As a condition to the utilization of any Subcontractor determined to
be "participating in the servicing function" within the meaning of Item 1122 of
Regulation AB, the Custodian shall cause any such Subcontractor used by the
Custodian, for the benefit of the Master Servicer and the Depositor to comply
with the provisions of Section 4.1 of this Agreement to the same extent as if
such Subcontractor were the Custodian. The Custodian shall be responsible for
obtaining from each Subcontractor and delivering to the Master Servicer any
assessment of compliance and attestation required to be delivered by such
Subcontractor under Section 4.1, in each case as and when required to be
delivered.
4.3 Errors and Omissions Policy. The Custodian shall maintain, at
all times and at its own expense, an insurance policy covering losses caused by
errors or omissions of the Custodian and its personnel (such policy, an "Errors
and Omissions Policy"), which policy shall have such terms and coverage amounts
as are comparable to those of errors and omissions policies maintained by
custodians of mortgage loans generally.
The Errors and Omissions Policy shall insure the Custodian, its
successors and assigns, against any losses resulting from negligence, errors or
omissions on the part of officers, employees or other persons acting on behalf
of the Custodian in the performance of its duties as Custodian pursuant to this
Agreement.
The Custodian shall maintain in effect the Errors and Omissions
Policy at all times and the Errors and Omissions Policy may not be canceled,
permitted to lapse or otherwise terminated without the acquisition of comparable
coverage by the Custodian.
4.4 Compliance with Article IV. If (a) the Custodian fails to comply
with its obligations to deliver any assessment of servicing compliance or
registered public accounting firm attestation reports required pursuant to this
Article IV or (b) any Subcontractor engaged by the Custodian fails to comply
with its obligations to deliver any assessment of servicing compliance or
registered public accounting firm attestation reports, the Master Servicer, may,
after consultation with the Depositor, remove the Custodian and appoint a
successor custodian by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the Custodian so removed and one copy to the
successor custodian.

makes this affidavit.

"disqualified organization" or an ERISA Prohibited Holder, as of [date of
transfer], and that the Purchaser is not acquiring Xxxxx Fargo Asset Securities
Corporation Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2006-AR11, Class A-R
Certificate (the "Residual Certificate") for the account of, or as agent
(including a broker, nominee, or other middleman) for, any person or entity from
which it has not received an affidavit substantially in the form of this
affidavit. For these purposes, a "disqualified organization" means the United
States, any state or political subdivision thereof, any foreign government, any
international organization, any agency or instrumentality of any of the
foregoing (other than an instrumentality if all of its activities are subject to
tax and a majority of its board of directors is not selected by such
governmental entity), any cooperative organization furnishing electric energy or
providing telephone service to persons in rural areas as described in Code
Section 1381(a)(2)(C), or any organization (other than a farmers' cooperative
described in Code Section 521) that is exempt from taxation under the Code
unless such organization is subject to the tax on unrelated business income
imposed by Code Section 511. For these purposes, an "ERISA Prohibited Holder"
means an employee benefit plan or other retirement arrangement subject to Title
I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"),

Certificate as they become due.
5. That the Purchaser understands that it may incur tax
liabilities with respect to the Residual Certificate in excess of cash flows
generated by the Residual Certificate.
6. That the Purchaser will not transfer the Residual Certificate
to any person or entity from which the Purchaser has not received an affidavit
substantially in the form of this affidavit and as to which the Purchaser has
actual knowledge that the requirements set forth in paragraph 3, 4 or 10 hereof
are not satisfied or that the Purchaser has reason to know does not satisfy the
requirements set forth in paragraph 4 hereof.
7. That the Purchaser is aware that the Residual Certificate may
be a "noneconomic residual interest" 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.
8. That the Purchaser will not cause income from the Residual
Certificate to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed
base, within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the Purchaser or
any other person.

in a transfer intended to meet the safe harbor provisions of Treasury
Regulations Sections 1.860E-1(c), the Purchaser has executed and attached
Attachment A hereto.
10. That the Purchaser (i) is a U.S. Person or (ii) is a person
other than a U.S. Person (a "Non-U.S. Person") that holds the Residual
Certificate in connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the
United States and has furnished the transferor and the Trustee with an effective
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or successor form at the time and in the
manner required by the Code or (iii) is a Non-U.S. Person that has delivered to
both the transferor and the Trustee an opinion of a nationally recognized tax
counsel to the effect that the transfer of the Residual Certificate to it is in
accordance with the requirements of the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder and that such transfer of the Residual Certificate will not be
disregarded for federal income tax purposes. "U.S. Person" means a citizen or
resident of the United States, a corporation or partnership (unless, in the case
of a partnership, Treasury regulations are adopted that provide otherwise)
created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state
thereof or the District of Columbia, including an entity treated as a
corporation or partnership for federal income tax purposes, an estate whose
income is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source,
or a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary
supervision over the administration of such trust, and one or more such U.S.
Persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of such trust
(or, to the extent provided in applicable Treasury regulations, certain trusts
in existence on August 20, 1996 which are eligible to elect to be treated as
U.S. Persons).
11. That the Purchaser agrees to such amendments of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement as may be required to further effectuate the
restrictions on transfer of the Residual Certificate to such a "disqualified
organization," an agent thereof, an ERISA Prohibited Holder or a person that
does not satisfy the requirements of paragraph 4, paragraph 5 and paragraph 10
hereof.
12. That the Purchaser consents to the designation of the Master
Servicer as its agent to act as "tax matters person" of each REMIC pursuant to
Section 8.13 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and if such designation is
not permitted by the Code and applicable law, to act as tax matters person if
requested to do so.

Section 1.860E-1(c)(5) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations;
(iv) the Purchaser has determined the consideration paid to it to acquire

and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Class
[B-4][B-5][B-6] Certificates; the Purchaser has sought such accounting, legal
and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment
decision; and the Purchaser is able to bear the economic risk of an investment

meaning of Rule 144A of the Act.]
(d) The Purchaser confirms that (a) it has received and reviewed a
copy of the Private Placement Memorandum dated July [__], 2006, relating to the

Certificates that the Depositor possesses or can possess without unreasonable

as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA subject to any federal, state or local law
("Similar Law") which is, to a material extent, similar to the foregoing
provisions of ERISA or the Code (collectively, a "Plan"), an agent acting on
behalf of a Plan, or a person utilizing the assets of a Plan or (ii) if the
Purchaser is an insurance company, (A) the source of funds used to purchase the
Class [B-4][B-5][B-6] Certificate is an "insurance company general account" (as
such term is defined in Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption
95-60 ("PTE 95-60"), 60 Fed. Reg. 35925 (July 12, 1995), (B) there is no Plan
with respect to which the amount of such general account's reserves and
liabilities for the contract(s) held by or on behalf of such Plan and all other

of the Code or Similar Law and will not subject the Depositor or the Master
Servicer to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement (including any liability for civil penalties or excise taxes
imposed pursuant to ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or Similar Law).
(f) If the Purchaser is a depository institution subject to the
jurisdiction of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC"), the Board
of Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("FRB"), the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"), the Office of Thrift Supervision ("OTS") or the
National Credit Union Administration ("NCUA"), the Purchaser has reviewed the
"Supervisory Policy Statement on Securities Activities" dated January 28, 1992
of the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council and the April 15, 1994
Interim Revision thereto as adopted by the OCC, FRB, FDIC, OTS and NCUA (with
modifications as applicable), as appropriate, other applicable investment
authority, rules, supervisory policies and guidelines of these agencies and, to
the extent appropriate, state banking authorities and has concluded that its
purchase of the Class [B-4][B-5][B-6] Certificates is in compliance therewith.
Section 3. Transfer of Class [B-4][B-5][B-6] Certificates.
(a) The Purchaser understands that the Class [B-4][B-5][B-6]
Certificates have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the
"Act") or any state securities laws and that no transfer may be made unless the
Class [B-4][B-5][B-6] Certificates are registered under the Act and applicable
state law or unless an exemption from registration is available. The Purchaser
further understands that neither the Depositor nor the Master Servicer is under
any obligation to register the Class [B-4][B-5][B-6] Certificates or make an
exemption available. In the event that such a transfer is to be made in reliance
upon an exemption from the Act or applicable state securities laws, (i) the
Master Servicer shall require, in order to assure compliance with such laws,
that the Certificateholder's prospective transferee certify to the Depositor and
the Master Servicer as to the factual basis for the registration or
qualification exemption relied upon, and (ii) unless the transferee is a
"Qualified Institutional Buyer" within the meaning of Rule 144A of the Act, the
Master Servicer or the Depositor may, if such transfer is made within three
years from the later of (a) the Closing Date or (b) the last date on which the
Depositor or any affiliate thereof was a holder of the Certificates proposed to
be transferred, require an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer may be made
pursuant to an exemption from the Act and state securities laws, which Opinion
of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Master Servicer or the Depositor. Any
such Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby
agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Master Servicer, any Paying Agent and the
Depositor against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt
or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.
(b) No transfer of a Class [B-4][B-5][B-6] Certificate shall be made
unless the transferee provides the Depositor and the Master Servicer with a
Transferee's Letter, substantially in the form of this Agreement.
(c) The Purchaser acknowledges that its Class [B-4][B-5][B-6]
Certificates bear a legend setting forth the applicable restrictions on
transfer.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Agreement to be
validly executed by its duly authorized representative as of the day and the
year first above written.

ARTICLE II
SPECIAL SERVICING PROCEDURES
Section 2.01. Reports and Notices.
(a) In connection with the performance of its duties under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to the realization upon defaulted
Mortgage Loans, the Company as Master Servicer shall provide to the Purchaser
the following notices and reports:
Within five Business Days after each Distribution Date (or included in or
with the monthly statements to Certificateholders pursuant to the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement), the Company shall provide to the Purchaser a
report identifying all loans delinquent 30 days or more (including all
loans in foreclosure, bankruptcy or "real estate owned" status) (each, a
"Delinquency Report"). The Delinquency Report shall use the same
methodology and calculations employed in the Company's standard servicing
reports, indicating the number of Mortgage Loans that are (i) thirty days
delinquent, (ii) sixty days delinquent, (iii) ninety days or more
delinquent, (iv) in foreclosure, (v) in bankruptcy or (vi) real estate
owned, and indicating for each such Mortgage Loan the loan number, the
property address and the outstanding principal balance.
(b) If requested by the Purchaser, the Company shall cause the
Servicer (to the extent that the Company as Master Servicer is granted such
authority in the related Servicing Agreement) to make its servicing personnel
available (during their normal business hours) to respond to reasonable
inquiries, by phone or in writing by facsimile, electronic, or overnight mail
transmission, by the Purchaser in connection with any Mortgage Loan (i)
identified in a report under Section 2.01 (a) (ii), (a) (iii), (a) (iv), (a) (v)
or (a) (vi); provided, that (1) the related Servicer shall only be required to
provide information that is readily accessible to its servicing personnel and
(2) the related Servicer shall respond within five Business Days orally or in
writing by facsimile transmission.
(c) In addition to the foregoing, the Company shall cause the
Servicer (to the extent that the Company as Master Servicer is granted such
authority in the related Servicing Agreement) to provide to the Company (for
prompt transmission to the Purchaser) such information as the Purchaser may
reasonably request provided, however, that such information is consistent with
normal reporting practices, concerning each Mortgage Loan that is at least
ninety days delinquent and each Mortgage Loan which has become real estate
owned, through the final liquidation thereof; provided, that the related
Servicer shall only be required to provide information that is readily
accessible to its servicing personnel; provided, however, that the Purchaser
will reimburse the Company and the related Servicer for any out of pocket
expenses.
Section 2.02. Purchaser's Election to Delay Foreclosure Proceedings.
(a) The Purchaser shall be deemed to direct the Company to direct
(to the extent that the Company as Master Servicer is granted such authority in
the related Servicing Agreement) the related Servicer that in the event that the
Company does not receive written notice of the Purchaser's election pursuant to
subsection (b) below within 48 hours (exclusive of any intervening non-Business
Days) of transmission of the Delinquency Report provided by the Company under
Section 2.01 (a) (subject to extension as set forth in Section 2.02(b), the
related Servicer may proceed with the Commencement of Foreclosure in respect of
each Mortgage Loan reported under Section 2.01 (a)(ii) or 2.01 (a)(iii) in
accordance with its normal foreclosure policies without further notice to the
Purchaser. Any foreclosure that has been initiated may be discontinued (i)
without notice to the Purchaser if the Mortgage Loan has been brought current or
if a refinancing or prepayment occurs with respect to the Mortgage Loan
(including by means of a short payoff approved by the related Servicer) or (ii)
if the related Servicer has reached the terms of a forbearance agreement with
the borrower.
(b) In connection with any Mortgage Loan reported in a Delinquency
Report under Section 2.01(a)(ii) or 2.01 (a)(iii), the Purchaser may elect to
instruct the Company to cause, to the extent that the Company as Master Servicer
is granted such authority in the related Servicing Agreement, the related
Servicer to delay the Commencement of Foreclosure until such time as the
Purchaser determines that the related Servicer may proceed with the Commencement
of Foreclosure. Such election must be evidenced by written notice received
within 48 hours (exclusive of any intervening non-Business Days) of transmission
of the Delinquency Report provided by the Company under Section 2.01(a). Such 48
hour period shall be extended for no longer than an additional four Business
Days after the receipt of the information if the Purchaser requests additional
information related to such foreclosure; provided, however, that the Purchaser
will have at least one Business Day to respond to any requested additional
information. Any such additional information shall be provided only to the
extent it is obtainable by the related Servicer from existing reports,
certificates or statements or is otherwise readily accessible to its servicing
personnel. The Purchaser agrees that it has no right to deal with the mortgagor
during such period. However, if such servicing activities include acceptance of
a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or short payoff, the Purchaser will be notified
and given two Business Days to respond.
(c) With respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Purchaser has
made an Election to Delay Foreclosure, the Purchaser shall obtain a Current
Appraisal as soon as practicable, but in no event more than 15 Business Days
thereafter, and shall provide the Company with a copy of such Current Appraisal.
(d) Within two Business Days of making any Election to Delay
Foreclosure, the Purchaser shall remit by wire transfer to the Company, for
deposit in the Collateral Fund, an amount, as calculated by the Company, equal
to the sum of (i) 125% of the greater of the unpaid principal balance of the
Mortgage Loan and the value shown in the Current Appraisal referred to in
subsection (c) above (or, if such Current Appraisal has not yet been obtained,
the Company's estimate thereof, in which case the required deposit under this
subsection shall be adjusted upon obtaining such Current Appraisal), and (ii)
three months' interest on the Mortgage Loan at the applicable Mortgage Interest
Rate. If any Election to Delay Foreclosure extends for a period in excess of
three months (such excess period being referred to herein as the "Excess
Period"), within two Business Days the Purchaser shall remit by wire transfer in
advance to the Company for deposit in the Collateral Fund the amount of each
additional month's interest, as calculated by the Company, equal to interest on
the Mortgage Loan at the applicable Mortgage Interest Rate for the Excess
Period. The terms of this Agreement will no longer apply to the servicing of any
Mortgage Loan upon the failure of the Purchaser to deposit any of the above
amounts relating to the Mortgage Loan within two Business Days of the Election
to Delay Foreclosure or within two Business Days of the commencement of the
Excess Period subject to Section 3.01.
(e) With respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Purchaser has
made an Election to Delay Foreclosure, the Company may withdraw from the
Collateral Fund from time to time amounts necessary to reimburse the related
Servicer for all related Monthly Advances and Liquidation Expenses thereafter
made by such Servicer in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and
the related Servicing Agreement. To the extent that the amount of any such
Liquidation Expenses is determined by the Company based on estimated costs, and
the actual costs are subsequently determined to be higher, the Company may
withdraw the additional amount from the Collateral Fund. In the event that the
Mortgage Loan is brought current by the mortgagor and the foreclosure action is
discontinued, the amounts so withdrawn from the Collateral Fund shall be
redeposited if and to the extent that reimbursement therefor from amounts paid
by the mortgagor is not prohibited pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement or the related Servicing Agreement, applicable law or the related
mortgage note. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, amounts withdrawn
from the Collateral Fund to cover Monthly Advances and Liquidation Expenses
shall not be redeposited therein or otherwise reimbursed to the Purchaser. If
and when any such Mortgage Loan is brought current by the mortgagor, all amounts
remaining in the Collateral Fund in respect of such Mortgage Loan (after
adjustment for all permitted withdrawals and deposits pursuant to this
subsection) shall be released to the Purchaser.
(f) With respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Purchaser has
made an Election to Delay Foreclosure, the related Servicer shall continue to
service the Mortgage Loan in accordance with its customary procedures (other
than the delay in Commencement of Foreclosure as provided herein). If and when
the Purchaser shall notify the Company that it believes that it is appropriate
to do so, the related Servicer may proceed with the Commencement of Foreclosure.
In any event, if the Mortgage Loan is not brought current by the mortgagor by
the time the loan becomes 6 months delinquent, the Purchaser's election shall no
longer be effective and at the Purchaser's option, either (i) the Purchaser
shall purchase the Mortgage Loan from the related Trust Estate at a purchase
price equal to the sum of (x) accrued and unpaid interest on the Mortgage Loan
at the applicable Mortgage Interest Rate through the last day of the month of
repurchase, (y) 100% of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan as of
such purchase date and (z) any additional amount needed to reimburse any
unreimbursed related Periodic Advance or other servicing advances made in
respect of such Mortgage Loan, to be paid by (A) applying any balance in the
Collateral Fund to such purchase price, and (B) to the extent of any deficiency,
by wire transfer of immediately available funds from the Purchaser to the
Company for deposit in the related Certificate Account; or (ii) the related
Servicer shall proceed with the Commencement of Foreclosure. In the event that
the Purchaser purchases any such Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall continue to
service the Mortgage Loan for the Purchaser pursuant to the applicable Servicing
Agreement.
(g) Upon the occurrence of a liquidation with respect to any
Mortgage Loan as to which the Purchaser made an Election to Delay Foreclosure
and as to which the related Servicer proceeded with the Commencement of
Foreclosure in accordance with subsection (f) above, the Company shall calculate
the amount, if any, by which the value shown on the Current Appraisal obtained
under subsection (c) exceeds the actual sales price obtained for the related
Mortgaged Property (net of Liquidation Expenses and accrued interest related to
the extended foreclosure period), and the Company shall withdraw the amount of
such excess from the Collateral Fund, shall remit the same to the Trust Estate
and in its capacity as Master Servicer shall apply such amount as additional
Liquidation Proceeds pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. After
making such withdrawal, all amounts remaining in the Collateral Fund in respect
of such Mortgage Loan (after adjustment for all permitted withdrawals and
deposits pursuant to this Agreement) shall be released to the Purchaser.
Section 2.03. Purchaser's Election to Commence Foreclosure
Proceedings.
(a) In connection with any Mortgage Loan identified in a Delinquency
Report under Section 2.01(a)(ii), the Purchaser, for so long as the Purchaser
owns 100% of the Lowest Priority Certificates, may elect to instruct the Company
to cause, to the extent that the Company as Master Servicer is granted such
authority in the related Servicing Agreement, the related Servicer to proceed
with the Commencement of Foreclosure as soon as practicable. Such election must
be evidenced by written notice received by the Company by 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the third Business Day following the delivery of such Delinquency
Report.
(b) Within two Business Days of making any Election to Foreclose,
the Purchaser shall remit to the Company, for deposit in the Collateral Fund, an
amount, as calculated by the Company, equal to 125% of the current unpaid
principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and three months interest on the Mortgage
Loan at the applicable Mortgage Interest Rate. If and when any such Mortgage
Loan is brought current by the mortgagor, all amounts in the Collateral Fund in
respect of such Mortgage Loan (after adjustment for all permitted withdrawals
and deposits pursuant to this Agreement) shall be released to the Purchaser if
and to the extent that reimbursement therefor from amounts paid by the mortgagor
is not prohibited pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the related
Servicing Agreement, applicable law or the related mortgage note. The terms of
this Agreement will no longer apply to the servicing of any Mortgage Loan upon
the failure of the Purchaser to deposit the above amounts relating to the
Mortgage Loan within two Business Days of the Election to Foreclose subject to
Section 3.01.
(c) With respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Purchaser has
made an Election to Foreclose, the related Servicer shall continue to service
the Mortgage Loan in accordance with its customary procedures (other than
Commencement of Foreclosure as provided herein). In connection therewith, the
Company shall have the same rights to make withdrawals for Monthly Advances and
Liquidations Expenses from the Collateral Fund as are provided under Section
2.02(e), and the Company shall make reimbursements thereto to the limited extent
provided under such subsection in accordance with its customary procedures. The
Company shall not be required to cause, to the extent that the Company as Master
Servicer is granted such authority in the related Servicing Agreement, the
related Servicer to proceed with the Commencement of Foreclosure if (i) the same
is stayed as a result of the mortgagor's bankruptcy or is otherwise barred by
applicable law, or to the extent that all legal conditions precedent thereto
have not yet been complied with, or (ii) the Company believes there is a breach
of representations or warranties by the Company, a Servicer, or the Depositor,
which may result in a repurchase or substitution of such Mortgage Loan, or (iii)
the Company or related Servicer reasonably believes the Mortgaged Property may
be contaminated with or affected by hazardous wastes or hazardous substances
(and, without limiting the related Servicer's right not to proceed with the
Commencement of Foreclosure, the Company supplies the Purchaser with information
supporting such belief). Any foreclosure that has been initiated may be
discontinued (x) without notice to the Purchaser if the Mortgage Loan has been
brought current or if a refinancing or prepayment occurs with respect to the
Mortgage Loan (including by means of a short payoff) or (y) if the related
Servicer has reached the terms of a forbearance agreement.
(d) Upon the occurrence of a liquidation with respect to any
Mortgage Loan as to which the Purchaser made an Election to Foreclose and as to
which the related Servicer proceeded with the Commencement of Foreclosure in
accordance with subsection (c) above, the Company shall calculate the amount, if
any, by which the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan at the time of
liquidation (plus all unreimbursed interest and servicing advances and
Liquidation Expenses in connection therewith other than those paid from the
Collateral Fund) exceeds the actual sales price obtained for the related
Mortgaged Property, and the Company shall withdraw the amount of such excess
from the Collateral Fund, shall remit the same to the Trust Estate and in its
capacity as Master Servicer shall apply such amount as additional Liquidation
Proceeds pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. After making such
withdrawal, all amounts remaining in the Collateral Fund (after adjustment for
all withdrawals and deposits pursuant to subsection (c) in respect of such
Mortgage Loan shall be released to the Purchaser.
Section 2.04. Termination.
(a) With respect to all Mortgage Loans included in the Trust Estate,
the Purchaser's right to make any Election to Delay Foreclosure or any Election
to Foreclose and the Company's obligations under Section 2.01 shall terminate
(i) at such time as the Principal Balance of the Class B Certificates has been
reduced to zero, (ii) if the greater of (x) 43% (or such lower or higher
percentage that represents the related Servicer's actual historical loss
experience with respect to the Mortgage Loans in the related pool as determined
by the Company) of the aggregate principal balance of all Mortgage Loans that
are in foreclosure or are more than 90 days delinquent on a contractual basis
and REO properties or (y) the aggregate amount that the Company estimates
through the normal servicing practices of the related Servicer will be required
to be withdrawn from the Collateral Fund with respect to Mortgage Loans as to
which the Purchaser has made an Election to Delay Foreclosure or an Election to
Foreclosure, exceeds (z) the then-current principal balance of the Class B
Certificates, (iii) upon any transfer by the Purchaser of any interest (other
than the minority interest therein, but only if the transferee provides written
acknowledgment to the Company of the Purchaser's right hereunder and that such
transferee will have no rights hereunder) in the Class B Certificates (whether
or not such transfer is registered under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement),
including any such transfer in connection with a termination of the Trust Estate
or (iv) upon any breach of the terms of this Agreement by the Purchaser.
(b) Except as set forth in 2.04(a), this Agreement and the
respective rights, obligations and responsibilities of the Purchaser and the
Company hereunder shall terminate upon the later to occur of (i) the final
liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan as to which the Purchaser made any
Election to Delay Foreclosure or any Election to Foreclose and the withdrawal of
all remaining amounts in the Collateral Fund as provided herein and (ii) ten
Business Days' notice. The Purchaser's right to make an election pursuant to
Section 2.02 or Section 2.03 hereof with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan
shall terminate if the Purchaser fails to make any deposit required pursuant to
Section 2.02(d) or 2.03(b) or if the Purchaser fails to make any other deposit
to the Collateral Fund pursuant to this Agreement.
ARTICLE III
COLLATERAL FUND; SECURITY INTEREST
Section 3.01. Collateral Fund.
Upon receipt from the Purchaser of the initial amount required to be
deposited in the Collateral Fund pursuant to Article II, the Company shall
establish and maintain with [_______________] as a segregated account on its
books and records an account (the "Collateral Fund"), entitled "Xxxxx Fargo
Bank, N.A., as Master Servicer, for the benefit of registered holders of Xxxxx
Fargo Asset Securities Corporation Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series
[_____]." Amounts held in the Collateral Fund shall continue to be the property
of the Purchaser, subject to the first priority security interest granted
hereunder for the benefit of the Certificateholders, until withdrawn from the
Collateral Fund pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.03 hereof. The Collateral Fund
shall be an "outside reserve fund" within the meaning of the REMIC Provisions,
beneficially owned by the Purchaser for federal income tax purposes. All income,
gain, deduction or loss with respect to the Collateral Fund shall be that of the
Purchaser. All distributions from the Trust Fund to the Collateral Fund shall be
treated as distributed to the Purchaser as the beneficial owner thereof.
Upon the termination of this Agreement and the liquidation of all Mortgage
Loans as to which the Purchaser has made any Election to Delay Foreclosure or
any Election to Foreclose pursuant to Section 2.04 hereof, the Company shall
distribute or cause to be distributed to the Purchaser all amounts remaining in
the Collateral Fund (after adjustment for all deposits and permitted withdrawals
pursuant to this Agreement) together with any investment earnings thereon. In
the event the Purchaser has made any Election to Delay Foreclosure or any
Election to Foreclose, prior to any distribution to the Purchaser of all amounts
remaining in the Collateral Fund, funds in the Collateral Fund shall be applied
consistent with the terms of this Agreement.
Section 3.02. Collateral Fund Permitted Investments.
The Company shall, at the written direction of the Purchaser, invest the
funds in the Collateral Fund in Collateral Fund Permitted Investments. Such
direction shall not be changed more frequently than quarterly. In the absence of
any direction, the Company shall select such investments in accordance with the
definition of Collateral Fund Permitted Investments in its discretion. All
income and gain realized from any investment as well as any interest earned on
deposits in the Collateral Fund (net of any losses on such investments) and any
payments of principal made in respect of any Collateral Fund Permitted
Investment shall be deposited in the Collateral Fund upon receipt. All costs and
realized losses associated with the purchase and sale of Collateral Fund
Permitted Investments shall be borne by the Purchaser and the amount of net
realized losses shall be deposited by the Purchaser in the Collateral Fund
promptly upon realization. The Company shall periodically (but not more
frequently than monthly) distribute to the Purchaser upon request an amount of
cash, to the extent cash is available therefore in the Collateral Fund, equal to
the amount by which the balance of the Collateral Fund, after giving effect to
all other distributions to be made from the Collateral Fund on such date,
exceeds the Required Collateral Fund Balance. Any amounts so distributed shall
be released from the lien and security interest of this Agreement.
Section 3.03. Grant of Security Interest.
The Purchaser hereby grants to the Company for the benefit of the
Certificateholders under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement a security interest
in and lien on all of the Purchaser's right, title and interest, whether now
owned or hereafter acquired, in and to: (1) the Collateral Fund, (2) all amounts
deposited in the Collateral Fund and Collateral Fund Permitted Investments in
which such amounts are invested (and the distributions and proceeds of such
investments) and (3) all cash and non-cash proceeds of any of the foregoing,
including proceeds of the voluntary conversion thereof (all of the foregoing
collectively, the "Collateral").
The Purchaser acknowledges the lien on and the security interest in the
Collateral for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Purchaser shall take
all actions requested by the Company as may be reasonably necessary to perfect
the security interest created under this Agreement in the Collateral and cause
it to be prior to all other security interests and liens, including the
execution and delivery to the Company for filing of appropriate financing
statements in accordance with applicable law. The Company shall file appropriate
continuation statements, or appoint an agent on its behalf to file such
statements, in accordance with applicable law.
Section 3.04. Collateral Shortfalls.
In the event that amounts on deposit in the Collateral Fund at any time
are insufficient to cover any withdrawals therefrom that the Company is then
entitled to make hereunder, the Purchaser shall be obligated to pay such amounts
to the Company immediately upon demand. Such obligation shall constitute a
general corporate obligation of the Purchaser. The failure to pay such amounts
within two Business Days of such demand (except for amounts to cover interest on
a Mortgage Loan pursuant to Sections 2.02(d) and 2.03 (b)), shall cause an
immediate termination of the Purchaser's right to make any Election to Delay
Foreclosure or Election to Foreclose and the Company's obligations under this
Agreement with respect to all Mortgage Loans to which such insufficiencies
relate, without the necessity of any further notice or demand on the part of the
Company.

the Master Servicer or the Depositor to the utilization of any Subcontractor.
The Purchaser shall promptly upon request provide to the Master Servicer (or any
