(a) Intent of the Parties; Reasonableness.

The Purchaser and the Company acknowledge and agree that the purpose of Article 2 of this Agreement is to facilitate compliance by the Purchaser and any Depositor with the provisions of Regulation AB and related rules and regulations of the Commission. Because Regulation AB is applicable by its terms only to offerings of asset-backed securities that are registered under the Securities Act and there are market uncertainties with respect to the disclosure that investors in privately offered securities may request, the parties agree over time to negotiate in good faith with respect to the provision of comparable disclosure in private offerings.

Neither the Purchaser nor any Depositor shall exercise its right to request delivery of information or other performance under these provisions other than in good faith, or for purposes other than compliance with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. The Company acknowledges that interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB may change over time, whether due to interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its staff, and agrees to negotiate in good faith with the Purchaser or any Depositor with regard to any reasonable requests for delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of evolving interpretations of Regulation AB. In connection with any Securitization Transaction, the Company shall cooperate fully with the Purchaser to deliver to the Purchaser (including any of its assignees or designees) and any Depositor, any and all statements, reports, certifications, records and any other information necessary to permit the Purchaser or such Depositor to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB, together with such disclosures relating to the Company, any Subservicer, any Third-Party Originator and the Mortgage Loans, or the servicing of the Mortgage Loans necessary in order to effect such compliance.

The Purchaser agrees that it will cooperate with the Company and provide sufficient and timely notice of any information requirements pertaining to a Securitization Transaction. The Purchaser will make all reasonable efforts to contain requests for information, reports or any other materials to items required for compliance with Regulation AB, and shall not request information which is not required for such compliance.
