In order to facilitate the servicing of certain Mortgage Loans by the

Administrator are entering into this Agreement with the Co-Trustees. The
Originators are selling the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans to the Pool I and
Pool II Co-Trustee and the Pool III Mortgage Loans to the Pool III Co-Trustee
(or, with respect to the FHA Loans, to the FHA Custodian, who is transferring
such FHA Loans to the Pool III Co-Trustee) for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, pursuant to which the following classes of Certificates are
being issued, denominated on the face thereof as The Money Store Asset Backed
Certificates, Series 1998-B, Class AF-1, Class AF-2, Class AF-3, Class AF-4,
Class AF-5, Class AF-6, Class AF-7, Class AF-8, Class AF-9, Class AV, Class
AH-1, Class AH-2, Class AH-3, Class AH-4, Class AH-5, Class AH-6, Class MH-1,
Class MH-2, Class BH, Class X, Class R-1 and Class R-2, respectively,
representing in the aggregate a 100% undivided ownership interest in the
Mortgage Loans. The Pool I, Pool II and Pool III Mortgage Loans have an
aggregate outstanding principal balance of $523,298,797.93, $524,381,512.80 and
$198,737,777.34, respectively (and an aggregate outstanding Principal Balance of
$1,246,418,088.07, which gives effect to the discounts on the Low Interest
Mortgage Loans of $0), as of July 31, 1998 (the "Cut-Off Date"), after
application of payments received by the Originators on or before such date.
Except for the Low Interest Mortgage Loans in the related Pool, if any, each
Mortgage Loan in such Pool has a Mortgage Interest Rate in excess of the Class
Adjusted Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate of each Class of Certificates in the
related Pool. The Class R Certificates are subordinated to the other Classes of
Certificates, in each case to the extent described herein. As provided herein,
two separate real estate mortgage investment conduit ("REMIC") elections will be
made in connection with the assets constituting each of REMIC I and REMIC II for
federal income tax purposes. On the Startup Day, all the Classes of REMIC II
Regular Certificates will be designated "regular interests" in REMIC II and the
Class R-2 Certificates will be designated the single class of "residual
interests" in such REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions (as defined
herein). On the Startup Day, all the Classes of Certificates except for the
Class R-1 and Class R-2 Certificates will be designated "regular interests" in
REMIC I and the Class R-1 Certificates will be designated the single class of
"residual interests" in such REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.

immediately following such acceptance (and prior to the issuance of the

set over and convey to the Pool III Co-Trustee, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the FHA Loans (but
not the Reserve Amount) without recourse, but with and under the "guaranty" of
the FHA Custodian made to the Pool III Co-Trustee, that the FHA Custodian shall
file or cause to be filed Claims with respect to the FHA Loans pursuant to
Section 5.15.
(b) The rights of the Certificateholders to receive payments with respect
to the Mortgage Loans in respect of the Certificates, and all ownership
interests of the Certificateholders in such payments, shall be as set forth in
this Agreement. In this regard, all rights of the Class R Certificateholders to
receive payments in respect of the Class R Certificates and all ownership
interests of the Class R Certificateholders in and to such payments, are subject
and subordinate to the preferential rights of the Pool I, Pool II and Pool III

Certificates, respectively, and the ownership interests of the Pool I, Pool II
and Pool III Certificateholders and Class X Certificateholders in such payments,
to the extent set forth herein. In accordance with the foregoing, the ownership
interest of the Class R Certificateholders in amounts deposited in the Principal
and Interest Account and any Account from time to time shall not vest unless and
until such amounts are distributed in respect of the Class R Certificates in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Section 2.02 POSSESSION OF MORTGAGE FILES.

Co-Trustee and (ii) the Pool III Mortgage Loans (other than the Reserve Amount)
is vested in the Pool III Co-Trustee, in each case for the benefit of the
Certificateholders of the related Pool. Further, the Reserve Amount relating to

Pool III Co-Trustee.
Section 2.03 BOOKS AND RECORDS.
The sale of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Originator's
balance sheets and other financial statements as a sale of assets by each
Originator. Nothing in this Agreement, however, shall be deemed to create a
transfer of an FHA Loan in violation of Title I or the FHA Regulations. The
Originators shall be responsible for maintaining, and shall maintain, a complete
set of books and records for each Mortgage Loan which shall be clearly marked to
reflect the ownership of each Mortgage Loan by the applicable Co-Trustee for the
benefit of the Certificateholders.
Section 2.04 DELIVERY OF MORTGAGE LOAN DOCUMENTS.
Each Originator contemporaneously with the delivery of this Agreement, has
delivered or caused to be delivered (i) to the Custodian, the following
documents relating to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans and (ii) to the Pool
III Co-Trustee, the following documents relating to the Pool III Mortgage Loans.
(a) The original Mortgage Note, endorsed "Pay to the order of holder" or
"Pay to the order of __________________" and signed, by facsimile or manual
signature, in the name of the Person delivering the note by a Responsible
Officer, with all prior and intervening endorsements showing a complete chain of
endorsement from the originator to such Person;
(b) Either: (i) the original Mortgage, with evidence of recording thereon,
(ii) a copy of the Mortgage certified as a true copy by a Responsible Officer
where the original has been transmitted for recording until such time as the
original is returned by the public recording office or (iii) a copy of the
Mortgage certified by the public recording office in those instances where the
original recorded Mortgage has been lost;
(c) Either: (i) the original Assignment of Mortgage from the Person
delivering such Assignment to "[The Bank of New York ][Norwest Bank Minnesota,
National Association], as Co-Trustee under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
dated as of July 31, 1998, 1998-B" with evidence of recording thereon (provided,
however, that where permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction wherein the
Mortgaged Property is located, the Assignment of Mortgage may be effected by one
or more blanket assignments for Mortgage Loans secured by Mortgaged Properties
located in the same county), (also provided, however, that the Person delivering
such Assignment shall not be required to record an assignment of a Mortgage if
(i) except as set forth in the next sentence, in the case of Pool I or Pool II,
an Assignment Event has not occurred or (ii) in the case of Pool III, such
Person furnishes to the Pool III Co-Trustee on or before the Closing Date, at
the Person's expense, an opinion of counsel with respect to the relevant
jurisdiction that such recording is not necessary to perfect the Pool III
Co-Trustee's interest in the related Mortgage Loans (in form and substance and
from counsel satisfactory to the Rating Agencies); or (iii) a copy of such
Assignment of Mortgage certified as a true copy by a Responsible Officer of the
Originator where the original has been transmitted for recording (provided,
however, that where the original Assignment of Mortgage is not being delivered,
each such Responsible Officer of the Originator may complete one or more blanket
certificates attaching copies of one or more Assignments of Mortgage relating to
the Mortgages originated by the related Originator). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Custodian or the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee shall cause to be
recorded each Assignment or Mortgage relating to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage
Loans upon the earliest to occur of (a) the Certificate Insurer delivering a
written request to the Representative and the Custodian to record the
Assignments of Mortgage with respect to such Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans,
with such request specifying that the Certificate Insurer is making such request
because the Certificate Insurer has determined, in its reasonable judgment, that
such recordation is necessary to protect the Certificate Insurer's interest with
respect to such Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans because (I) a material adverse
change has occurred with respect to the Representative or (II) the Certificate
Insurer has been so advised by its counsel as a result of a change that occurred
after the Closing Date in applicable law or the interpretation thereof or (b)
with respect to a particular Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loan, the insolvency of
the related Mortgagor;
(d) (X) Except with respect to the FHA Loans (i) the original policy of
title insurance or, if such policy has not yet been delivered by the insurer,

the Mortgage Loan was less than or equal to $15,000 or the Mortgage Loan was not
originated by the Originators, other evidence of the status of title, which
shall consist of an attorney's opinion of title or certificate of title, a
preliminary title report, a property search, a title search, a lot book report,
a property information report or a report entitled "prelim" or "PIRT" (property
information report), and (ii) proof of hazard insurance in the form of a hazard
insurance policy or hazard insurance policy endorsement that names the related
Originator, its successors and assigns, as a mortgagee/loss payee, and, if such
endorsement does not show the amount insured by the related hazard insurance
policy, some evidence of such amount and (Y) with respect to the FHA Loans, the
written Mortgage Loan application, title report, credit reconciliation
worksheet, credit investigation receipts and approval sheet;
(e) With respect to any intervening assignments, if applicable, either: (i)
originals of all intervening assignments, if any, showing a complete chain of
title from the Originator to the Person delivering such assignment, including
warehousing assignments, with evidence of recording thereon if such assignments
were recorded, (ii) copies of any assignments certified as true copies by a
Responsible Officer of the Originator where the originals have been submitted
for recording until such time as the originals are returned by the public
recording officer, or (iii) copies of any assignments certified by the public
recording office in any instances where the original recorded assignments have
been lost;
(f) Originals of all assumption and modification agreements, if any; and
(g) Except with respect to the FHA Loans and certain Mortgage Loans with
original principal balances of less than $15,000, the appraisal made in
connection with the origination of the related Mortgage Loan with photographs of
the subject property and of comparable properties (if available), constituting
evidence sufficient to indicate that the Mortgaged Property relates to a
Residential Dwelling (or, with respect to Multifamily Loans, a Multifamily
Property) and identifying the type thereof.
The Originator shall, within five Business Days after the receipt thereof,
and in any event, within one year of the Closing Date, deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Custodian, with respect to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage
Loans, and FUNB (who shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Pool III
Co-Trustee), with respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans: (a) the original
recorded Mortgage in those instances where a copy thereof certified by a
Responsible Officer of the Originator was delivered to the Custodian or Pool III
Co-Trustee, as the case may be; (b) if required pursuant to Section 2.04(c), the
original recorded Assignment of Mortgage to the applicable Co-Trustee, as the
case may be, which, together with any intervening assignments of Mortgage,
evidences a complete chain of title from the originator to the applicable
Co-Trustee in those instances where copies thereof certified by a Responsible
Officer of the Originator were delivered to the Custodian or Pool III
Co-Trustee, as the case may be; (c) any intervening assignments of Mortgage in
those instances where copies thereof certified by a Responsible Officer of the
Originator were delivered to the Custodian or Pool III Co-Trustee, as the case
may be; and (d) except with respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans, the title
insurance policy, or, where no such policy is required to be provided, the other
evidence of title and hazard insurance required in clause (d) above.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.04, in
those instances where the public recording office retains the original Mortgage,
Assignment of Mortgage or the intervening assignments of the Mortgage after it
has been recorded, the Originator shall be deemed to have satisfied its
obligations hereunder upon delivery to the Custodian or, in the case of the Pool
III Mortgage Loans, FUNB (who shall forward such documents to the Pool III
Co-Trustee), as the case may be, of a copy of such Mortgage, Assignment of
Mortgage or assignments of Mortgage certified by the public recording office to
be a true copy of the recorded original thereof. From time to time the
Originator may forward or cause to be forwarded to the Custodian or in the case
of the Pool III Mortgage Loans, FUNB (who shall forward such documents to the
Pool III Co-Trustee), as the case may be, additional original documents
evidencing an assumption or modification of a Mortgage Loan. All Mortgage Loan
documents held by the Custodian or Pool III Co-Trustee, as the case may be, as
to each Mortgage Loan are referred to herein as the "Trustee's Mortgage File."
All recording required pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall be accomplished
by and at the expense of the Servicer.
Section 2.05 ACCEPTANCE OF THE TRUST FUND; CERTAIN SUBSTITUTIONS;
CERTIFICATION BY CO-TRUSTEE AND CUSTODIAN.
(a) The Custodian, on behalf of the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee, with
respect to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans, and FUNB, on behalf of the
Pool III Co-Trustee, with respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans, each agree to
execute and deliver (with a copy to the Certificate Insurer in the case of the
Custodian) on the Closing Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans an
acknowledgment of receipt of, for each Mortgage Loan, an Assignment of Mortgage
or certified copy thereof, and a Mortgage Note, in the form attached as Exhibit
F hereto. Each of the Custodian, with respect to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage
Loans, and the Pool III Co-Trustee, with respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans,
declares that it will hold such documents and any amendments, replacements or
supplements thereto, as well as any other assets included in the definition of
the Trust Fund and delivered to the Custodian or Pool III Co-Trustee, as the
case may be, in trust upon and subject to the conditions set forth herein for
the benefit of the Certificateholders. Each of the Custodian, with respect to
the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans, and FUNB, with respect to the Pool III
Mortgage Loans, agrees, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to review
each Trustee's Mortgage File relating to the applicable Pool of Mortgage Loans
within 60 days after the Closing Date (or, with respect to any Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan, within 45 days after the assignment thereof) and, on
each such date, to deliver to the Representative, the Servicer and, with respect
to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans, the Certificate Insurer, and with
respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans, the Pool III Co-Trustee, a certification
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-1 to the effect that, as to each
Mortgage Loan listed in the applicable Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any
Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in such
certification as not covered by such certification), with such exceptions, if
any, as identified therein (i) all documents required to be delivered pursuant
to this Agreement are in its possession (or in the case of the Pool III Mortgage
Loans, have been delivered to the Pool III Co-Trustee) (other than items listed
in Section 2.04(d)(ii)), (ii) such documents (other than items listed in Section
2.04(d)(ii)) have been reviewed by it and have not been mutilated, damaged, torn
or otherwise physically altered and relate to such Mortgage Loan, (iii) based on
its examination and only as to the foregoing documents, the information set
forth on the applicable Mortgage Loan Schedule accurately reflects the
information set forth in the Trustee's Mortgage File, and (iv) each Mortgage
Note has been endorsed as provided in Section 2.04 of this Agreement. The
Custodian and FUNB shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or
examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to
determine that they are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented
purpose or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face.
Within 375 days after the Closing Date, the Custodian, with respect to the Pool
I and Pool II Mortgage Loans, and FUNB, with respect to the Pool III Mortgage
Loans, shall deliver to the Servicer, the Representative, the Certificate
Insurer (with respect to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans), the Pool III
Co-Trustee (with respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans) and any
Certificateholder who requests a copy a final certification in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit G evidencing, if such be the case, the completeness of the
Trustee's Mortgage Files (other than items listed in Section 2.04(d)(ii)). In no
event shall either of the Co-Trustees have any liability or responsibility for
reviewing any of the Trustee's Mortgage Files or any of the documents contained
therein or for the Custodian's or FUNB's failure to perform any of its
respective obligations hereunder to conduct any such review.
(b) If the Certificate Insurer or the Custodian (with respect to the Pool I
and Pool II Mortgage Loans) or FUNB (with respect to the Pool III Mortgage
Loans) during the process of reviewing the Trustee's Mortgage Files finds any
document constituting a part of a Trustee's Mortgage File which is not properly
executed, has not been received, is unrelated to a Mortgage Loan identified in
the Mortgage Loan Schedule, or does not conform in a material respect to the
requirements of Section 2.04 or the description thereof as set forth in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule, the Certificate Insurer or the Custodian (with respect
to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans) or FUNB (with respect to the Pool III
Mortgage Loans) shall promptly so notify the Servicer, the Representative and
the applicable Co-Trustee (or, with respect to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage
Loans, the Custodian and the Certificate Insurer) (or with respect to the Pool
III Mortgage Loans, FUNB), respectively. In performing any such review, the
Custodian and FUNB may conclusively rely on the related Originator as to the
purported genuineness of any such document and any signature thereon. It is
understood that the scope of the Custodian's (or, with respect to the Pool III
Mortgage Loans, FUNB's) review of the Mortgage Files is limited solely to
confirming that the documents listed in Section 2.04 (other than the items
listed in Section 2.04(d)(ii)) appear on their face to have been executed and
received and to relate to the Mortgage Loans identified in the Mortgage Loan
Schedule, and to verify that each Mortgaged Property appears from the
information contained in the Trustee's Mortgage File to be a Residential
Dwelling (or, with respect to the Multifamily Loans, a Multifamily Property).
The Representative agrees to use reasonable efforts to remedy a material defect
in a document constituting part of a Mortgage File of which it is so notified.
If, however, within 60 days after notice to it respecting such defect the
Representative has not remedied the defect and the defect materially and
adversely affects the interest of the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage
Loan or the interests of the Certificate Insurer, the Representative will (i)
substitute in lieu of such Mortgage Loan a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan in
the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 3.03 or (ii)
purchase such Mortgage Loan at a purchase price equal to the Principal Balance
of the Mortgage Loan as of the date of purchase, before the occurrence of
Realized Losses, if any, plus 30 days' interest (or, in the case of a Pool II
Mortgage Loan, the actual number of days during the related interest period for
the Pool II Certificates) on such Principal Balance, computed at the weighted
average Class Adjusted Mortgage Loan Remittance Rates for the Pool I
Certificates with respect to a Pool I Mortgage Loan, the weighted average Class
Adjusted Mortgage Loan Remittance Rates for the Pool II Certificates, with
respect to a Pool II Mortgage Loan or the weighted average Class Adjusted
Mortgage Loan Remittance Rates for the Pool III Certificates, with respect to a
Pool III Mortgage Loan, as the case may be, as of the next succeeding
Determination Date, plus any accrued unpaid Servicing Fees, Contingency Fees,
Monthly Advances and Servicing Advances reimbursable to the Servicer, plus the
interest portion of any unreimbursed Insured Payments made by the Certificate
Insurer related to a Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loan, which purchase price shall
be deposited in the applicable Principal and Interest Account on the next
succeeding Determination Date except for the amount described above relating to
unreimbursed Insured Payments on a Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loan, which shall
be paid directly by the Representative to the Certificate Insurer.
(c) Upon receipt by the Custodian (or, with respect to the Pool III
Mortgage Loans, the Pool III Co-Trustee) of a certification of a Servicing
Officer of the Servicer of such substitution or purchase and the deposit of the
amounts described above in the applicable Principal and Interest Account (which
certification shall be in the form of Exhibit J hereto), the Custodian (or, with
respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans, the Pool III Co-Trustee and, if
applicable, the FHA Custodian) shall release to the Servicer for release to the
Representative the related Trustee's Mortgage File and the Custodian (or, with
respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans, the Pool III Co-Trustee and, if
applicable, the FHA Custodian) shall execute, without recourse, and deliver such
instruments of transfer necessary to transfer such Mortgage Loan to the
Representative including, without limitation, for each FHA Loan, an FHA Transfer
of Note Report to be filed with the FHA. All costs of any such transfer shall be
borne by the Servicer.
If requested by either the Representative, the Servicer or the Certificate
Insurer, on the Remittance Date in June of each year, commencing 1999, the
Custodian (and, with respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans, FUNB) shall deliver
to the Representative, the Servicer and (in the case of the Pool I and Pool II
Mortgage Loans) the Certificate Insurer a certification detailing all
transactions with respect to the Mortgage Loans for which the Custodian or the
Pool III Co-Trustee holds a Trustee's Mortgage File pursuant to this Agreement
during the prior calendar year; provided, however, that any certification
requested by the Certificate Insurer shall detail only those transactions
relating to Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans. Such certification shall list all
Trustee's Mortgage Files which were released by or returned to the Custodian or
the Pool III Co-Trustee during the prior calendar year, the date of such release
or return, the reason for such release or return, and the person to whom the
Trustee's Mortgage File was released or the person who returned the Trustee's
Mortgage File.

or otherwise) on such Principal Balance, computed at the applicable Mortgage
Interest Rate (net of the per annum rate used in calculating the Servicing Fee
and the Contingency Fee) as of the next succeeding Determination Date, plus any
accrued unpaid Servicing Fees, Monthly Advances and Servicing Advances
reimbursable to the Servicer, which purchase price shall be deposited in the

be recorded in the relevant real property recording office for each such
Mortgage or to deliver assignments of the Mortgages, in recordable form, to the

and acceptable to the Certificate Insurer, to the effect that recordation of
such assignments is not necessary to perfect the interest of the Pool I and Pool
II Co-Trustee in such Mortgages. The Custodian shall undertake such transfer and
recording in a manner that will result in the completion of the transfer of all
such Trustee's Mortgage Files relating to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans
to the successor Custodian and the recording of such assignments of mortgage (or
delivery of such opinion of counsel) within 30 days following the occurrence of
an Assignment Event. From and after the occurrence of an Assignment Event, and

Mortgage Loans to the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee, the Pool I and Pool II Co-
Trustee shall act as custodian or it may engage the services of another Person
approved by the Certificate Insurer to act as Custodian. The Custodian hereby
acknowledges that it is bailee of the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee and is
holding all of the Trustee's Mortgage Files relating to the Pool I and Pool II
Mortgage Loans delivered to it solely in trust for the Pool I and Pool II
Co-Trustee.
From time to time following delivery of the Trustee's Mortgage Files
relating to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans to the Pool I and Pool II
Co-Trustee pursuant to this Section 2.11, the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee may
appoint a Custodian who is acceptable to the Certificate Insurer and the Trust
Administrator. The Trust Administrator shall notify the Rating Agencies of any
appointment of a successor Custodian.

amount required by the Mortgage, except for interest accruing from the date of
the Mortgage Note or date of disbursement of the Mortgage Loan proceeds,
whichever is greater, to the day which precedes by one month the Due Date of the
first installment of principal and interest;
(dd) There is no proceeding pending or threatened for the total or partial
condemnation of the Mortgaged Property, nor is such a proceeding currently

the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan or the use
for which the premises were intended;

representation is made, all of the improvements which were included for the
purpose of determining the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property lie wholly
within the boundaries and building restriction lines of such property, and no
improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property unless
any such improvements are (except with respect to those Mortgage Loans with
original principal balances which were less than $15,000 or not originated by a
Originator) stated in the title insurance policy and affirmatively insured;
(ff) To the best of the Originator's knowledge there do not exist any
circumstances or conditions with respect to the Mortgage, the Mortgaged
Property, the Mortgagor or the Mortgagor's credit standing that can be
reasonably expected to cause private institutional investors to regard the
Mortgage Loan as an unacceptable investment, cause the Mortgage Loan to become
delinquent or adversely affect the value or marketability of the Mortgage Loan;

(ll) No statement, report or other document signed by the Originator
constituting a part of the Mortgage File contains any untrue statement of fact
or omits to state a fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not
misleading;
(mm) The origination and collection practices used by the Originator with
respect to the Mortgage Note and Mortgage have been in all respects legal,
proper, prudent and customary in the mortgage lending and servicing business
and, in the case of FHA Loans, legal, proper, prudent and customary in the Title
I mortgage lending and servicing business;
(nn) With respect to each Mortgage constituting a deed of trust, a trustee,
duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been properly
designated and currently so serves and is named in such Mortgage, and no fees or

under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee's sale after
default by the Mortgagor;
(oo) No Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation feature, or other
contingent interest feature;

Mortgage Loan, the related Prior Lien was not 30 or more days delinquent;
(qq) With respect to each Mortgage Loan that is not a first mortgage loan,
either (i) no consent for the Mortgage Loan is required by the holder of the
related Prior Lien or (ii) such consent has been obtained and is contained in
the Mortgage File;
(rr) Other than with respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans, as to which no
representation is made, with respect to each Mortgage Loan that is not a first

and all applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the state wherein the
Mortgaged Property is located, and (2)(A) organized under the laws of such
state, or (B) qualified to do business in such state, or (C) federal savings and
loan associations or national banks having principal offices in such state, or
(D) not doing business in such state;
(vv) The Mortgage contains an enforceable provision for the acceleration of
the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in the event
the related Mortgaged Property is sold without the prior consent of the
mortgagee thereunder;
(ww) Any future advances made prior to the Cut-Off Date have been
consolidated with the outstanding principal amount secured by the Mortgage, and
the secured principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single interest rate and
single repayment term reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. The consolidated
principal amount does not exceed the original principal amount of the Mortgage
Loan. The Mortgage Note does not permit or obligate the Servicer to make future
advances to the Mortgagor at the option of the Mortgagor;
(xx) The related Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions
which render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the
realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security,
including, (i) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by
trustee's sale, and (ii) otherwise by judicial foreclosure. There is no
homestead or other exemption available to the Mortgagor which would materially
interfere with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee's sale or
the right to foreclose the Mortgage;
(yy) There is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration
existing under the Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note and no event which,

period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration;
and neither the Servicer nor the Originator has waived any default, breach,
violation or event of acceleration;
(zz) All parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had legal capacity
to execute the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and each Mortgage Note and
Mortgage have been duly and properly executed by such parties;
(aaa) The Mortgage Loan was not selected for inclusion under this Agreement
from its portfolio of comparable loans, including, in the case of FHA Loans,
comparable Title I loans, on any basis which would have a material adverse
effect on a Certificateholder;
(bbb) All amounts received after the Cut-Off Date with respect to the
Mortgage Loans have been deposited into the applicable Principal and Interest
Account and are, as of the Closing Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans, in
the applicable Principal and Interest Account;
(ccc) With respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than the Pool III Mortgage
Loans) originated by an Originator with an original principal balance in excess
of $15,000 for which the Originator conducted a drive-by appraisal pursuant to
FHLMC Form 704 or alternative FNMA Form in connection with the origination
thereof, such deposited Mortgage Loan (i) had an original principal balance not
in excess of $35,000, and (ii) has a Loan-to-Value Ratio less than 50% and/or an

none of the Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loans, had a Loan-to-Value Ratio which
exceeded 100% and 100%, respectively, and (ii) for each Pool III Mortgage Loan,
after giving effect to all improvements to be made on the related Mortgaged
Property with the proceeds of such Pool III Mortgage Loan, and based upon
representations of the related Mortgagor, the value of the related Mortgaged
Property will at least be equal to the amount of such Pool III Mortgage Loan and
the outstanding amount of all other loans secured by Prior Liens on such
Mortgaged Property;
(eee) No more than approximately 20% of the Pool I Mortgage Loans and 28%
of the Pool II Mortgage Loans, respectively (measured by outstanding principal
balance as of the Cut-Off Date), had a Debt-to-Income Ratio exceeding 44.0%.
"Debt-to-Income Ratio" is that ratio, stated as a percentage, which results from
dividing a Mortgagor's monthly debt by his gross monthly income. "Monthly debt"
includes (i) the monthly payment under the Prior Liens (which generally includes
an escrow for real estate taxes), (ii) the related Mortgage Loan Monthly Payment
(which, with respect to the Initial Pool II Mortgage Loans, is calculated with
interest based on a rate equal to the Lifetime Cap), (iii) other installment
debt service payments, including, in respect of revolving credit debt, the
required monthly payment thereon, or, if no such payment is specified, 5.0% of
the balance as of the date of calculation. "Monthly debt" does not include any
of the debt (other than revolving credit debt) described above that matures
within less than 10 months from the date of the calculation. No more than
approximately 5% of the Pool I Mortgage Loans were originated without verifying
the Mortgagor's income;
(fff) At the applicable dates of origination, each Pool I, Pool II and Pool
III Mortgage Loan had an original term to maturity of no greater than 40, 30 and

Mortgage Note does not provide for negative amortization, limits in the amount
of monthly payments or a conversion feature, the Mortgage Interest Rate is
subject to adjustment on each Change Date to equal the sum of the LIBOR Index,
or Treasury Index, as the case may be, plus the applicable Gross Margin, subject
to rounding, the Periodic Rate Cap, the applicable Lifetime Floor and the
applicable Lifetime Cap on each Change Date, the Mortgagor's new monthly payment
will be adjusted to an amount equal to the payment which, when paid in
substantially equal installments during the then remaining term of the Pool II
Mortgage Loan, would amortize fully the unpaid principal balance of such Initial
Pool II Mortgage Loan, at the then applicable Mortgage Interest Rate without
extension of the original maturity date which maturity date is not more than 360
months after the original Due Date therefor;
(jjj) With respect to each Pool II Mortgage Loan, all of the terms of the
Mortgage and Mortgage Note pertaining to interest rate adjustments, payment
adjustments and adjustments of the outstanding principal balance are
enforceable, such adjustments will not affect the priority of the Mortgage lien,
and all of the interest rate calculations have been properly calculated,

for the FHA Title I loan program; each Non-Acknowledged FHA Loan will be
acknowledged by the FHA within 180 days of the Closing Date;
(mmm) The Reserve Amount with respect to each FHA Loan will be transferred
to the FHA Custodian's FHA Reserve Account within 180 days after the Closing
Date and the Originators will give the Certificate Insurer, the Pool III
Co-Trustee, the FHA Custodian and the Rating Agencies prompt notice of their
receipt of confirmation of such transfers;
(nnn) Assuming sufficient coverage remains available in the Reserve Amount,
each Claim filed by the Claims Administrator with respect to a 90 Day Delinquent
FHA Loan will be honored by the FHA in accordance with the FHA Regulations;
(ooo) Substantially all the proceeds of each Pool III Mortgage Loan have
been or will be used to acquire or to improve or protect an interest in real
property that, at the origination date of such Pool III Mortgage Loan, was the
only security for such Pool III Mortgage Loan;
(ppp) [Reserved];
(qqq) A portion of the Pool III Mortgage Loans are governed by the FTC
holder regulation provided in 16 C.F.R. Part 433;
(rrr) All obligations of the seller or subcontractor under each Pool III
Mortgage Loan have been completed in accordance with the terms of such Pool III
Mortgage Loans as of the Closing Date, and no additional goods or services will
be, or are required to be, provided by the seller or subcontractor under the
terms of such Pool III Mortgage Loans after the Closing Date. All improvements
and other goods and services provided under each Pool III Mortgage Loan shall
have been inspected by the Originator within the time period and in accordance
to the applicable Title I regulations and prior to the Closing Date, and
evidence of such inspection shall be included in the Mortgage File;
(sss) With respect to each Pool III Mortgage Loan that is a home
improvement loan or retail installment sales contract for goods or services, no
Mortgagor has or will have a claim, counterclaim, right of rescission, set-off
or defense under any express or implied warranty or otherwise with respect to
goods or services provided under such Pool III Mortgage Loan; and
(ttt) The Mortgage and the Mortgage Note contain the entire agreement of
the parties and all obligations of the seller or subcontractor under the related
Pool III Mortgage Loan, and no other agreement defines, modifies or expands the
obligations of the seller or subcontractor under the Pool III Mortgage Loan.
Section 3.03 PURCHASE AND SUBSTITUTION.
It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set
forth in Sections 3.01 and 3.02 shall survive delivery of the Certificates to
the Certificateholders. Upon discovery by the Representative, the Servicer, any
Subservicer, the Custodian, any Co-Trustee or, in the case of any Pool I or Pool
II Mortgage Loan, the Certificate Insurer of a breach of any of such
representations and warranties which materially and adversely affects the value
of the Mortgage Loans or the interest of the Certificateholders, or which
materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificate Insurer, in
the case of any Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loan, or the Certificateholders in
the related Mortgage Loan in the case of a representation and warranty relating
to a particular Mortgage Loan (notwithstanding that such representation and
warranty was made to the Representative's or Originators' best knowledge), the
party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the others.
Within 60 days of the earlier of its discovery or its receipt of notice of any
breach of a representation or warranty, the Representative shall (a) promptly
cure such breach in all material respects, (b) purchase such Mortgage Loan by
depositing in the applicable Principal and Interest Account, on the next
succeeding Determination Date, an amount in the manner specified in Section
2.05(b), or (c) remove such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund (in which case it
shall become a Deleted Mortgage Loan) and substitute one or more Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loans, provided such substitution is effected not later than
the date which is two years after the Startup Day or at such later date, if the
applicable Co-Trustee, and, in the case of any Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loan,
the Certificate Insurer receive an Opinion of Counsel that such substitution
would not constitute a Prohibited Transaction or cause the Trust Fund to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time any Certificates are outstanding.
As to any Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Representative substitutes a
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Servicer shall effect such
substitution by delivering to the Custodian (or, with respect to the Pool III
Mortgage Loans, FUNB, who shall deliver to the Pool III Co-Trustee) a
certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J, executed by a Servicing
Officer and the documents constituting the Trustee's Mortgage File for such
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans.
The Servicer shall deposit in the applicable Principal and Interest Account
all payments received in connection with such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan
or Loans after the date of such substitution. Monthly Payments received with
respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans on or before the date of
substitution will be retained by the Representative on behalf of the related
Originator. The Trust Fund will own all payments received on the Deleted
Mortgage Loan on or before the date of substitution, and the Representative on
behalf of the Originators shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts
subsequently received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Servicer
shall give written notice to the applicable Co-Trustee, the Representative and,
in the case of any Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loan, the Certificate Insurer and
the Custodian that such substitution has taken place and shall amend the
applicable Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted
Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement and the substitution of the
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan. Upon such substitution, such Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall be subject to the terms of this
Agreement in all respects, including Sections 2.04 and 2.05, and the
Representative and the Originator shall be deemed to have made with respect to
such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the date of
substitution, the covenants, representations and warranties set forth in
Sections 3.01 and 3.02. On the date of such substitution, the Representative
will remit to the Servicer, and the Servicer will deposit into the applicable
Principal and Interest Account an amount equal to the Substitution Adjustment.
In addition to the cure, purchase and substitution obligation in Section
2.05 and this Section 3.03, the Representative shall indemnify and hold harmless
the Trust Fund, the Co-Trustees, the FHA Custodian, the Custodian, the
Certificateholders and, in the case of any Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loan, the
Certificate Insurer against any loss, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses
resulting from any claim, demand, defense or assertion based on or grounded
upon, or resulting from, a breach of the Representative's or any Originator's
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement. It is understood and
agreed that the obligations of the Representative or any Originator set forth in
Sections 2.05 and 3.03 to cure, purchase or substitute for a defective Mortgage
Loan and to indemnify the Certificateholders, the Co-Trustees, the FHA
Custodian, the Custodian, and, in the case of any Pool I or Pool II Mortgage
Loan, the Certificate Insurer as provided in Sections 2.05 and 3.03 constitute
the sole remedies of the Trustee, the FHA Custodian, the Custodian, the
Certificate Insurer and the Certificateholders respecting a breach of the
foregoing representations and warranties.
Any cause of action against any Originator, the Servicer or the
Representative relating to or arising out of the breach of any representations
and warranties made in Sections 2.05, 3.01 or 3.02 shall accrue as to any
Mortgage Loan upon (i) discovery of such breach by any party and notice thereof
to the Representative or notice thereof by the Representative to the applicable
Co-Trustee, (ii) failure by the Representative to cure such breach or purchase
or substitute such Mortgage Loan as specified above, and (iii) demand upon the
Representative by the applicable Co-Trustee for all amounts payable in respect
of such Mortgage Loan.
For as long as the Trust Fund shall exist, the Servicer and the Co-Trustees
shall act in accordance herewith to assure continuing treatment of each of REMIC
I and REMIC II as a REMIC. In particular, the Co-Trustees shall not (a) sell or
knowingly permit the sale of all or any portion of the Mortgage Loans or of any
Permitted Instrument unless such sale is as a result of a repurchase of the
Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement or the applicable Co-Trustee has
received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such sale (i) is in accordance
with a qualified liquidation as defined in Section 860F(a)(4) of the Code and as
described in Section 11.01 hereof, or (ii) would not be treated as a prohibited
transaction within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code; and (b) except
for the cash deposits into the Spread Account pursuant to Section 6.05, accept
any contribution to the Trust Fund after the Startup Day without an Opinion of
Counsel that such contribution is included within the exceptions provided in
Section 860G(d)(2) of the Code and therefore will not be subject to the tax
imposed by Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code.
ARTICLE IV
THE CERTIFICATES
Section 4.01 THE CERTIFICATES.
(a) The Certificates shall be substantially in the forms annexed hereto as
Exhibit B and shall, upon original issue, be executed and delivered by the
Servicer to the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee, with respect to the Pool I, Pool
II, Class X and Class R Certificates, and the Pool III Co-Trustee, with respect
to the Pool III Certificates for authentication and redelivery to or upon the
written order of the Representative, on behalf of the Originators, upon receipt
by the applicable Co-Trustee of the documents specified in Section 2.04. All
Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the
Servicer by its President, one of its Executive Vice Presidents or Vice
Presidents, or by its Treasurer, in the denominations specified in the
definition of Percentage Interest, and shall be authenticated by manual
signature on behalf of the applicable Co-Trustee by one of its authorized
signatories. Certificates bearing the signatures of individuals who were at the
time of the execution or authentication of the Certificates the proper officers
of the Servicer or an authorized signatory of the applicable Co-Trustee, as the
case may be, shall bind the Servicer or the applicable Co-Trustee, as the case
may be, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold
such offices prior to the delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such
offices at the date of such Certificates. All Certificates issued hereunder
shall be dated the date of their authentication.
(b) The Co-Trustees shall elect that each of REMIC I and REMIC II shall be
treated as a REMIC under Section 860D of the Code. Any inconsistencies or
ambiguities in this Agreement or in the administration of this Agreement shall
be resolved in a manner that preserves the validity of such REMIC elections.
(c) [Reserved]
(d) REMIC II will be evidenced by (x) the Class II-AF-1, Class II-AF-2,
Class II-AF-3, Class II-AF-4, Class II-AF-5, Class II-AF-6, Class II-AF-7,
Class II-AF-8, Class II-AF-9, Class II-AV, Class II-AH-1, Class II-AH-2, Class
II-AH-3, Class II-AH-4, Class II-AH-5, Class II-AH-6, Class II-MH-1, Class
II-MH-2, Class II-BH, Class QQQ and Class MMM Certificates (the "REMIC II
Regular Certificates"), which will be uncertificated and non-transferable and
are hereby designated as the "regular interests" in the REMIC II and (y) the
Class R-2 Certificates, which are hereby designated as the single "residual
interest" in the REMIC II (the REMIC II Regular Certificates, together with the
Class R-2 Certificates, the "REMIC II Certificates"). The REMIC II Regular
Certificates shall be recorded on the records of the REMIC II as being issued to
and held by the Trustee on behalf of REMIC I.
That portion of the Excess Spread used to accelerate payments of principal
on the REMIC I Certificates to create or increase overcollateralization
(collectively, the "Turbo Amount") will not be used to accelerate payments on
the REMIC II Regular Interests, but a portion of the interest payable with
respect to the Class II-MMM Certificate which equals 1% of the Turbo Amount will
be payable as a reduction of the principal balances of the REMIC II Certificates
(other than the Class-II QQQ and Class-II MMM Certificates) in the same manner
in which the Turbo Amount is distributed as principal among the REMIC I
Certificates bearing the same designations (other than the II-) (and will be
accrued and added to principal on the Class II-MMM Certificate). Principal
payments on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated 98% to the Class II-QQQ
Certificate, 1% to the Class II-MMM Certificate, and 1% in total to the other
REMIC II Certificates until paid in full. The aggregate amount of principal
allocated to such other REMIC II Certificates shall be apportioned among such
Classes in the same manner in which principal is payable with respect to the
REMIC I Certificates bearing the same designation (other than the II-).
Notwithstanding the above, principal payments on the Mortgage Loans that are
attributable to the Subordination Reduction Amount shall be allocated 98% and 2%
to the Class II-QQQ and Class II-MMM Certificates, respectively, until paid in
full. Realized Losses shall be applied such that after all distributions have
been made on such Payment Date the principal balance of the Class II-QQQ
Certificates is 98% of the aggregate Loan Balances of the Mortgage Loans, the
principal balances of the Class II-AF-1, Class II-AF-2, Class II-AF-3, Class
II-AF-4, Class II-AF-5, Class II-AF-6, Class II-AF-7, Class II-AF-8, Class
II-AF-9, Class II-AV, Class II-AH-1, Class II-AH-2, Class II-AH-3, Class
II-AH-4, Class II-AH-5, Class II-AH-6, Class II-MH-1, Class II-MH-2 and Class
II-BH are each 1% of the principal balances of the REMIC I Certificates bearing
the same designation (other than the II-), and the principal balance of the
Class II-MMM Certificate is equal to the aggregate Loan Balances of the Mortgage
Loans less an amount equal to the sum of the principal balances of the other
Classes of REMIC II Certificates.
The REMIC II Certificates will have the following designations and
Pass-Through Rates, and distributions of principal and interest thereon shall be
allocated to the Certificates in the following manner:

Interest bearing the same designation (without the II-) as this REMIC II
Regular Interest.
(3) Except as provided in footnote (4), interest will be allocated among the

proportion as interest is payable with respect to such interests.
(4) Any interest with respect to this REMIC II Certificate in excess of the
product of (i) two times the weighted average coupon of the REMIC II
Regular Interests (excluding the Class II-QQQ Certificates), where each of
such Classes, other than the Class II-MMM Certificate, is first subject to
a cap and floor equal to the Pass-Through Rate of the REMIC I Regular
Certificate that its principal is allocated to, and the Class II-MMM
Certificate is subject to a cap equal to 0%, and (ii) the principal balance
of this REMIC II Certificate, shall be allocated to the Class X
Certificates as a separate component.
(5) On each Distribution Date, available funds, if any, remaining in the REMIC
II after payments of interest and principal, as designated above, will be
distributed to the Class R-2 Certificate.
(6) Principal will be allocated to all outstanding Classes of REMIC I Regular
Interests which are paid principal (other than the Turbo Amount) in
proportion to such principal distributions.

Class AH-3, Class AH-4, Class AH-5, Class AH-6, Class MH-1, Class MH-2, Class
BH, and Class X are hereby designated as "regular interests" with respect to the
REMIC I and the Class R-1 Certificate is hereby designated as the single
"residual interest" with respect to the REMIC I. Any amount remaining in REMIC I
after payments on the regular interests in REMIC I shall be distributed to the
Class R-1 Certificate.

(a) The Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee, with respect to the Pool I, Pool II,
Class X and Class R Certificates, and the Pool III Co-Trustee, with respect to
the Pool III Certificates shall cause to be kept at its office, or at the office
of its designated agent, a Certificate Register in which, subject to such
reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, it shall provide for the
registration of the applicable Classes of Certificates and of transfers and
exchanges of the applicable Classes of Certificates as herein provided. Each
Certificate Register shall contain the name, remittance instructions, Class and

(b) It is intended that the Pool I, Pool II and Pool III Certificates be
registered so as to participate in a global book-entry system with the
Depository, as set forth herein. Each Class of Pool I, Pool II and Pool III
Certificates shall initially be issued in the form of a single (and if the Class
exceeds $200,000,000, additional Certificates in multiples of $200,000,000
provided that one such Certificate may be in a denomination no greater than
$200,000,000) fully registered Certificate of such Class. The Pool I, Pool II

Class MH-1 $15,899,000
Class MH-2 $14,955,000
Class BH $16,396,000
Upon initial issuance, the ownership of such Classes of Certificates shall be
registered in the Register in the name of Cede & Co., or any successor thereto,
as nominee for the Depository.
The Representative and each Co-Trustee are hereby authorized to execute and
deliver the Representation Letter with the Depository.
(c) With respect to Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Certificates registered in
the Certificate Register in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of the
Depository, the Representative and the Co-Trustees shall have no responsibility
or obligation to Direct or Indirect Participants or beneficial owners for which
the Depository holds Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Certificates from time to time
as a Depository. Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, the
Representative and the Co-Trustees shall have no responsibility or obligation
with respect to (a) the accuracy of the records of the Depository, Cede & Co.,
or any Direct or Indirect Participant with respect to the ownership interest in
the Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Certificates, (b) the delivery to any Direct or
Indirect Participant or any other Person, other than a registered Holder of a
Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Certificate or (c) the payment to any Direct or
Indirect Participant or any other Person, other than a registered Holder of a
Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Certificate as shown in the Certificate Register, of
any amount with respect to any distribution of principal or interest on the Pool
I, Pool II or Pool III Certificates. No Person other than a registered Holder of
a Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Certificate as shown in the Certificate Register
shall receive a certificate evidencing such Pool I, Pool II or Pool III
Certificate.
(d) Upon delivery by the Depository to the applicable Co-Trustee of written
notice to the effect that the Depository has determined to substitute a new
nominee in place of Cede & Co., and subject to the provisions hereof with
respect to the payment of distributions by the mailing of checks or drafts to
the registered Holders of Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Certificates appearing as
registered Owners in the Certificate Register on a Record Date, the name "Cede &
Co." in this Agreement shall refer to such new nominee of the Depository.
(e) In the event that (i) the Depository or the Representative advises the
Co-Trustees in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to
discharge properly its responsibilities as nominee and depository with respect
to the Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Certificates and the Representative is unable
to locate a qualified successor or (ii) the Representative at its sole option
elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Depository, the Pool I,
Pool II or Pool III Certificates shall no longer be restricted to being
registered in the Certificate Register in the name of Cede & Co. (or a successor
nominee) as nominee of the Depository. At that time, the Representative may
determine that the Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Certificates shall be registered
in the name of and deposited with a successor depository operating a global
book-entry system, as may be acceptable to the Representative, or such
depository's agent or designee but, if the Representative does not select such
alternative global book-entry system, then the Pool I, Pool II or Pool III
Certificates may be registered in whatever name or names registered Holders of
Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Certificates transferring Pool I, Pool II or Pool
III Certificates shall designate, in accordance with the provisions hereof.
(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary,
so long as any Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Certificates are registered in the
name of Cede & Co., as nominee of the Depository, all distributions of principal
and interest on such Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Certificates and all notices
with respect to such Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Certificates shall be made and
given, respectively, in the manner provided in the Representation Letter.
(g) The Class R and Class X Certificates shall be issued without principal
balances in minimum Percentage Interests as provided in the definition of
Percentage Interest. The Class R Certificates and Class X Certificates have not
been registered or qualified under the 1933 Act, or any state securities law. No
transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Class R or Class X
Certificate shall be made unless such disposition is made pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the 1933 Act and effective registration
or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a
transaction which does not require such registration or qualification. In the
event that a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the 1933
Act, the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee or the Certificate Registrar for Pool I
and Pool II may require, in order to assure compliance with the 1933 Act, that
the Class R or Class X Certificateholder desiring to effect such disposition and
such Class R or Class X Certificateholder's prospective transferee each certify
to the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee or the Certificate Registrar for Pool I and
Pool II in writing the facts surrounding such disposition. Unless the Pool I and
Pool II Co-Trustee requests otherwise, such certification shall be substantially
in the form of Exhibit D hereto. In the event that such certification of facts
does not on its face establish the availability of an exemption under Rule 144A
of the 1933 Act or under Section 4(2) or a comparable provision of the 1933 Act,
the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee shall require an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from
the 1933 Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Pool I and
Pool II Co-Trustee or of the Trust Fund. The Representative is not obligated
under this Agreement to register the Class R Certificates under the 1933 Act or
any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under this
Agreement to permit the transfer of Class R or Class X Certificates without such
registration or qualification.
(h) Each Person who has or who acquires any Percentage Interest in a Class
R Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such
Percentage Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and
to have irrevocably appointed the Representative or its designee as its
attorney-in-fact to negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause (v)
below and to execute all instruments of transfer and to do all other things
necessary in connection with any such sale, and the rights of each Person
acquiring any Percentage Interest in a Class R Certificate are expressly subject
to the following provisions:
(i) Each Person holding or acquiring any Percentage Interest in a
Class R Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly
notify the Representative of any change or impending change in its status
as a Permitted Transferee.
(ii) No Percentage Interest in a Class R Certificate may be
transferred (including the sale to the initial holder) and the Pool I and
Pool II Co-Trustee shall not register the transfer of a Class R Certificate
unless the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee and the Representative shall have
been furnished with (A) an affidavit (a "Transfer Affidavit") of the
proposed transferee in the form attached as Exhibit K (and if required by
the Transfer Affidavit, the opinion of counsel, as therein referenced) and
(B) a certificate (a "Transfer Certificate") of the transferor to the
effect that such transferor has no actual knowledge that the proposed
transferee is not a Permitted Transferee.
(iii) Each Person holding or acquiring any Percentage Interest in a
Class R Certificate shall agree (A) to require a Transfer Affidavit from
any other Person to whom such Person attempts to transfer its Percentage
Interest in a Class R Certificate, (B) to require a Transfer Affidavit from
any Person for whom such Person is acting as nominee, trustee or agent in
connection with any transfer of a Class R Certificate, (C) to deliver a
Transfer Certificate to the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee and the
Representative in connection with any such attempted transfer and (D) not
to transfer its Percentage Interest in a Class R Certificate or to cause
the transfer of a Percentage Interest in a Class R Certificate to any other
Person if it has actual knowledge that such Person is not a Permitted
Transferee.
(iv) Any attempted or purported transfer of any Percentage Interest in
a Class R Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 4.02
shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported
transferee. If any purported transferee shall become a Holder of a Class R
Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 4.02, then the
last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored to all rights as
Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of transfer of such
Class R Certificate. The Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee shall notify the
Representative upon knowledge of a Responsible Officer that the
registration of transfer of a Class R Certificate was not in fact permitted
by this Section 4.02. The Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee shall be under no
liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of a Class R
Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 4.02 or for
making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking
any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this
Agreement so long as the transfer was registered after receipt of the
related Transfer Affidavit and Transfer Certificate. The Pool I and Pool II
Co-Trustee shall be entitled but not obligated to recover from any Holder
of a Class R Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted Transferee at the
time it became a Holder or, at such subsequent time as it became other than
a Permitted Transferee, all payments made on such Class R Certificate at
and after either such time. Any such payments so recovered by the Pool I
and Pool II Co-Trustee shall be paid and delivered by the Pool I and Pool
II Co-Trustee to the last preceding Holder of such Certificate.
(v) If any purported transferee shall become a Holder of a Class R
Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section 4.02, then the
Representative or its designee shall, without notice to the Holder or any
prior Holder of such Class R Certificate, as the case may be, sell such
Class R Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Representative or its
designee on such reasonable terms as the Representative or its designee may
choose. Such purchaser may be the Representative itself or any affiliate of
the Representative. The proceeds of such sale, net of commissions, expenses
and taxes due, if any, will be remitted by the Representative to the last
preceding purported transferee of such Class R Certificate, except that in
the event that the Representative determines that the Holder or any prior
Holder of such Class R Certificate may be liable for any amount due under
this Section 4.02 or any other provision of this Agreement, the
Representative may withhold a corresponding amount from such remittance as
security for such claim. The terms and conditions of any sale under this
clause (v) shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Representative
or its designee, and it shall not be liable to any Person having a
Percentage Interest in a Class R Certificate, as applicable, as a result of
its exercise of such discretion.
No Class M or Class B Certificates or any interest therein shall be
acquired by or on behalf of an employee benefit plan or other retirement
arrangement subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974, as amended, or Section 4975 of the Code (each a "Plan"), unless such Plan
is purchasing such Class M or Class B Certificates pursuant to Section III of
Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE") 95-60 Fed. Reg. 35925 (July 12,
1995) relating to acquisitions by insurance company general accounts. The
purchase of a Class M or Class B Certificate will be deemed a representation by
the purchaser that either (i) it is not purchasing such Class M or Class B
Certificate, directly or indirectly, for, or on behalf of, a Plan or (ii) the
purchaser is an insurance company which is purchasing such Class M or Class B
Certificate with funds contained in an "insurance company general account" as
such term is defined in Section V(e) of PTCE 95-60 and that the purchase and
holding of such Class M or Class B Certificate is covered under PTCE 95-60.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Pool III Co-Trustee nor the
Certificate Registrar for Pool III shall be required to monitor, determine or
inquire as to compliance with the transfer restrictions with respect to the
Class M or Class B Certificates in the form of Book-Entry Certificates, and
neither of the Co-Trustees nor their respective Certificate Registrars shall
have any liability for transfers of Book-Entry Certificate made through the
book-entry facilities of the Depositary or between or among participants
therein, made in violation of the foregoing restrictions.
Subject to the preceding paragraphs, upon surrender for registration of
transfer of any Certificate at such office, the Representative shall execute in
the name of the designated transferee or transferees, a new Certificate of the
same Class and Percentage Interest and dated the date of authentication by the
applicable Co-Trustee. The applicable Certificate Registrar shall notify the
Representative and the applicable Co-Trustee of any such transfer.
At the option of the Certificateholders, Certificates may be exchanged for
other Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations of a like
aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of the Certificates to be
exchanged at such office. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for
exchange, the Servicer shall execute, and the applicable Co-Trustee shall
authenticate, the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange
is entitled to receive.
(i) 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 marked canceled by the applicable
Co-Trustee.
Section 4.03 MUTILATED, DESTROYED, LOST OR STOLEN CERTIFICATES.
If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to a Certificate Registrar,
or a Co-Trustee and such Certificate Registrar and Co-Trustee receives evidence
to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and
(ii) there is delivered to the Servicer, the applicable Co-Trustee and the
applicable Certificate Registrar such security or indemnity (which may include a
letter of indemnity delivered by an insurance company) as may be required by
each of them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to
the Servicer, the applicable Co-Trustee and the applicable Certificate Registrar
that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Servicer
shall execute and deliver, and the applicable Co-Trustee shall authenticate, in
exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Certificate, a new Certificate of like Class, tenor and Percentage Interest, but
bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. Upon the issuance of any new
Certificate under this Section 4.03, the Servicer and the applicable Co-Trustee
may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
expenses connected therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this
Section 4.03 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in
the applicable Trust Fund, as if originally issued, whether or not the
mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall be found at any time.
Section 4.04 PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS.
Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer,
the Servicer, the Representative, the applicable Co-Trustee, the Certificate
Insurer and 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 remittances pursuant to Section 6.08 and for all other purposes
whatsoever, and the Representative, the Servicer, the applicable Co-Trustees,
the Certificate Insurer and the applicable Certificate Registrar shall not be
affected by notice to the contrary.
ARTICLE V
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 5.01 DUTIES OF THE SERVICER.
(a) It is intended that each of REMIC I and REMIC II hereunder shall
constitute, and that the affairs of each of REMIC I and REMIC II shall be
conducted so as to qualify as a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" as
defined in and in accordance with the REMIC Provisions. In furtherance of such
intention, the Servicer covenants and agrees that it shall act as agent (and the
Servicer is hereby appointed to act as agent) on behalf of REMIC I and REMIC II
and the Trust Administrator covenants and agrees that it shall act as Tax
Matters Person on behalf of REMIC I and REMIC II. The Trust Administrator (and
in the case of (iv) and (v) below, the Servicer) shall: (i) prepare and file, or
cause to be prepared and filed, in a timely manner, U.S. Real Estate Mortgage
Investment Conduit Income Tax Returns (Form 1066) and any other Tax Return
required to be filed by REMIC I or REMIC II using a calendar year as the taxable
year for each of REMIC I and REMIC II and using the accrual method of
accounting, including, without limitation, information reports relating to
"original issue discount," as defined in the Code, based upon the Prepayment
Assumption and calculated by using the issue price of the Certificates; (ii)
make, or cause to be made, an election, on behalf of each of REMIC I and REMIC
II, to be treated as a REMIC on the federal tax return of each of REMIC I and
REMIC II for their first taxable year; (iii) prepare and forward, or cause to be
prepared and forwarded, to each of the Co-Trustees, the Certificateholders and
to the Internal Revenue Service and any other relevant governmental taxing
authority all information returns or reports as and when required to be provided
to them in accordance with the REMIC Provisions and any other provision of
federal, state or local income tax laws; (iv) to the extent that the affairs of
REMIC I or REMIC II are within its control, conduct such affairs at all times
that any Certificates are outstanding so as to maintain the status of each of
REMIC I and REMIC II as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and any other
applicable federal, state and local laws; (v) not knowingly or intentionally
take any action or omit to take any action that would cause the termination of
the REMIC status of either REMIC I or REMIC II or that would cause the
imposition of a prohibited transaction tax or a tax on contributions to REMIC I
or REMIC II; (vi) pay the amount of any and all federal, state, and local taxes,
including, without limitation, prohibited transaction taxes as defined in
Section 860F of the Code imposed on each of REMIC I and REMIC II when and as the
same shall be due and payable (but such obligation shall not prevent the Trust
Administrator or any other appropriate Person from contesting any such tax in
appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the Trust Administrator from
withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of
such proceedings); (vii) ensure that any such returns or reports filed on behalf
of REMIC I and REMIC II are properly executed by the appropriate person; (viii)
represent REMIC I and REMIC II in any administrative or judicial proceedings
relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority,
request an administrative adjustment as to any taxable year of REMIC I and REMIC
II, enter into settlement agreements with any governmental taxing agency, extend
any statute of limitations relating to any item of REMIC I or REMIC II and
otherwise act on behalf of REMIC I and REMIC II in relation to any tax matter
involving either REMIC I or REMIC II; and (ix) as provided in Section 5.11
hereof, make available information necessary for the computation of any tax
imposed (1) on transferors of residual interests to transferees that are not
Permitted Transferees or (2) on pass-through entities, any interest in which is
held by an entity which is not a Permitted Transferee. In connection with any
FHA Loan, the Servicer shall timely pay to the FHA the FHA Insurance Premium
required to be paid for each FHA Loan. Each Co-Trustee will cooperate with the
Servicer and the Trust Administrator in the foregoing matters and will sign, as
Co-Trustee, any and all Tax Returns required to be filed by the REMIC I and
REMIC II. The Servicer shall indemnify the Co-Trustees and REMIC I or REMIC II,
as applicable, for any liability they may incur in connection with this Section
5.01(a) including, in the case of Pool I and Pool II, reimbursement to the
Certificate Insurer for any Insured Payments made by the Certificate Insurer in
connection with such liability with respect to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage
Loans, if any, which indemnification shall survive the termination of REMIC I
and REMIC II; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not indemnify a
Co-Trustee for its negligence or willful misconduct.
With respect to any Mortgage Note relating to a Pool I or Pool II Mortgage
Loan released by the Custodian, on behalf of the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee,
to the Servicer or to any Subservicer in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, other than a release or satisfaction pursuant to Section 7.02, prior
to such release, the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee shall (a) complete all
endorsements in blank so that the endorsement reads "Pay to the order of The
Bank of New York, as Co-Trustee under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated
as of July 31, 1998, 1998-B" and (b) complete a restrictive endorsement that
reads "The Bank of New York is the holder of the mortgage note for the benefit
of the Certificateholders under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of
July 31, 1998, 1998-B" with respect to those Mortgage Notes relating to a Pool I
or Pool II Mortgage Loan currently endorsed "Pay to the order of holder."
With respect to any Mortgage Note relating to a Pool III Mortgage Loan
released by the Pool III Co-Trustee to the Servicer or any Subservicer in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, other than a release or
satisfaction pursuant to Section 7.02 or a release to the Claims Administrator
pursuant to Section 5.15(b), prior to such release, FUNB shall (a) complete all
endorsements in blank so that the endorsement reads "Pay to the order of Norwest
Bank Minnesota, National Association, as Co-Trustee under the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement dated as of July 31, 1998, 1998-B" and (b) complete a
restrictive endorsement that reads "Norwest Bank Minnesota, National Association
is the holder of the mortgage note for the benefit of the Certificateholders
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of July 31, 1998, 1998-B"
with respect to those Mortgage Notes relating to Pool III Mortgage Loans
currently endorsed "Pay to the order of Holder."
(b) The Servicer, as independent contract servicer, shall service and
administer the Mortgage Loans and shall have full power and authority, acting
alone, to do any and all things in connection with such servicing and
administration which the Servicer may deem necessary or desirable and consistent
with the terms of this Agreement. The Servicer may enter into Subservicing
Agreements for any servicing and administration of Mortgage Loans with any
institution which is in compliance with the laws of each state necessary to
enable it to perform its obligations under such Subservicing Agreement and (x)
has (i) been designated an approved Seller-Servicer by FHLMC or FNMA for first
and second mortgage loans and (ii) has a net worth of at least $5,000,000 or (y)
is an Originator or another affiliate of the Servicer. The Servicer shall give
notice to the Certificate Insurer and the applicable Co-Trustee of the
appointment of any Subservicer. Any such Subservicing Agreement shall be
consistent with and not violate the provisions of this Agreement. The Servicer
shall be entitled to terminate any Subservicing Agreement in accordance with the
terms and conditions of such Subservicing Agreement and to either itself
directly service the related Mortgage Loans or enter into a Subservicing
Agreement with a successor subservicer which qualifies hereunder.
(c) Notwithstanding any Subservicing Agreement, any of the provisions of
this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and
Subservicer or reference to actions taken through a Subservicer or otherwise,
the Servicer shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the Co-Trustees, the
Certificateholders and, in the case of Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans, the
Certificate Insurer, for the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such
obligation or liability by virtue of such Subservicing Agreements or
arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Subservicer and to the
same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone
were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. For purposes of this
Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received payments on Mortgage
Loans when any Subservicer has received such payments. The Servicer shall be
entitled to enter into any agreement with a Subservicer for indemnification of
the Servicer by such Subservicer, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall
be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.
(d) Any Subservicing Agreement that may be entered into and any
transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Subservicer
in its capacity as such and not as an originator shall be deemed to be between
the Subservicer and the Servicer alone, and the Co-Trustees and
Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims,
rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the Subservicer
except as set forth in Section 5.01(e).
(e) In the event the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the
Servicer (including by reason of an Event of Default), each Co-Trustee or its
designee shall, subject to Section 10.02 hereof, thereupon assume all of the
rights and obligations of the Servicer under each Subservicing Agreement that
the Servicer may have entered into with respect to related Pool of Mortgage
Loans, unless the applicable Co-Trustee is then permitted and elects to
terminate any Subservicing Agreement in accordance with its terms. Each
Co-Trustee, its designee or the successor servicer for such Co-Trustee shall be
deemed to have assumed all of the Servicer's interest therein and to have
replaced the Servicer as a party to each Subservicing Agreement to the same
extent as if the Subservicing Agreements had been assigned to the assuming
party, except that the Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability
or obligations under the Subservicing Agreements. The Servicer at its expense
and without right of reimbursement therefor, shall, upon request of a
Co-Trustee, deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to
each Subservicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced and an
accounting of amounts collected and held by it and otherwise use its best
efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Subservicing
Agreements to the assuming party.
(f) Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer may waive,
modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of
strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any
Mortgagor if in the Servicer's determination such waiver, modification,
postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the interests of the
Pool I, Pool II and Pool III Certificateholders or, with respect to the Pool I
and Pool II Mortgage Loans, the Certificate Insurer, provided, however, that
(unless (x) the Mortgagor is in default with respect to a Mortgage Loan, or such
default is, in the judgment of the Servicer, imminent and in the case of a Pool
I or Pool II Mortgage Loan the Servicer obtains written consent of the
Certificate Insurer and (y) the Servicer determines that any modification would
not be considered a new mortgage loan for federal income tax purposes) the
Servicer may not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that
would change the Mortgage Interest Rate, defer (subject to Section 5.12), or
forgive the payment of any principal or interest (unless in connection with the
liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan), or extend the final maturity date on
such Mortgage Loan. No costs incurred by the Servicer or any Subservicer in
respect of Servicing Advances shall for the purposes of distributions to
Certificateholders be added to the amount owing under the related Mortgage Loan.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject to the consent of
the Certificate Insurer, the Servicer shall continue, and is hereby authorized
and empowered, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Co-Trustees and each
Certificateholder, all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of
partial or full release, discharge and all other comparable instruments, with
respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties. If
reasonably required by the Servicer, the Co-Trustees, the Custodian and the FHA
Custodian shall execute any powers of attorney furnished by the Servicer and
other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its
servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement.
The Servicer, in servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, shall
employ or cause to be employed procedures (including collection, foreclosure and
REO Property management procedures) and exercise the same care that it
customarily employs and exercises in servicing and administering mortgage loans
for its own account, in accordance with accepted second mortgage servicing
practices (or, in the case of FHA Loans, in accordance with accepted Title I
servicing practices or, in the case of Multifamily Loans, in accordance with
accepted multifamily loan servicing practices) of prudent lending institutions
and giving due consideration to the Certificate Insurer's and the
Certificateholders' reliance on the Servicer.
(g) On and after such time as the Co-Trustees receive the resignation of,
or notice of the removal of, the Servicer from its rights and obligations under
this Agreement, and with respect to resignation pursuant to Section 9.04, after
receipt of the Opinion of Counsel required pursuant to Section 9.04, the Pool I
and Pool II Co-Trustee or its designee (or, with respect to the Pool III
Mortgage Loans, the Pool III Co-Trustee or its designee) shall assume all of the
rights and obligations of the Servicer, subject to Section 10.02 hereof. The
Servicer shall, upon request of a Co-Trustee but at the expense of the Servicer,
deliver to the applicable Co-Trustee or the Custodian all documents and records
(including computer tapes and diskettes) relating to the Mortgage Loans and an
accounting of amounts collected and held by the Servicer and otherwise use its
best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of servicing rights
and obligations to the assuming party.
(h) In the event that any tax is imposed on REMIC I or REMIC II, such tax
shall be charged against amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of the
Class R-1 or Class R-2 Certificates, respectively. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, the Servicer is hereby authorized to retain from
the Pool Remaining Amount Available for the respective Pool sufficient funds to
reimburse the Servicer for the payment of such tax (to the extent that the
Servicer has paid any such tax and has not been previously reimbursed or
indemnified therefor). The Servicer agrees to first seek indemnification for any
such tax payment from any indemnifying parties before reimbursing itself from
amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of the Class R-1 or Class R-2
Certificates.
(i) After the Closing Date, the Servicer shall confirm, or cause to be
confirmed, whether all on-site or off-site improvements on the Mortgaged
Properties relating to FHA Loans have been completed and, if such improvements
have not been completed, to submit the appropriate filings to the FHA.
Section 5.02 LIQUIDATION OF MORTGAGE LOANS.
In the event that any payment due under any Mortgage Loan and not postponed
pursuant to Section 5.01 is not paid when the same becomes due and payable, or
in the event the Mortgagor fails to perform any other covenant or obligation
under the Mortgage Loan and such failure continues beyond any applicable grace
period, the Servicer shall take such action as it shall deem to be in the best
interests of the Certificate Insurer (if such Liquidated Mortgage Loan is a Pool
I or Pool II Mortgage Loan) and the Certificateholders, as the case may be. The
Servicer shall foreclose upon or otherwise comparably effect the ownership in
the name of the applicable Co-Trustee (subject to the provisions of Section
12.10) for the benefit of the Certificateholders, as the case may be, of
Mortgaged Properties relating to defaulted Mortgage Loans as to which no
satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments in
accordance with the provisions of Section 5.10 and, in the case of FHA Loans,
for which a Claim is not required to be submitted to the FHA pursuant to Section
5.15. In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion, the Servicer
shall exercise collection and foreclosure procedures with the same degree of
care and skill in its exercise or use as it would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of its own affairs. The Servicer shall take into
account the existence of any hazardous substances, hazardous wastes or solid
wastes, as such terms are defined in the Comprehensive Environmental Response
Compensation and Liability Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of
1976, or other federal, state or local environmental legislation, on a Mortgaged
Property in determining whether to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably
convert the ownership of a Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that the
Servicer shall not take title to any Mortgaged Property in the name of the
applicable Co-Trustee with respect to any such Mortgaged Property if the
Servicer has actual knowledge or reasonably believes that any such environmental
substance or waste exists and it determines that it would not be commercially
reasonable to foreclose on such Mortgaged Property. Any amounts advanced in
connection with such foreclosure or other action shall constitute "Servicing
Advances."
After a Mortgage Loan has become a Liquidated Mortgage Loan, the Servicer
shall promptly prepare and forward to the applicable Co-Trustee, the Certificate
Insurer (if such Liquidated Mortgage Loan is a Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loan)
and, upon request, any Certificateholder, a Liquidation Report, in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit N, detailing the Liquidation Proceeds received from
the Liquidated Mortgage Loan, expenses incurred with respect thereto, and any
Realized Loss incurred in connection therewith.
Section 5.03 ESTABLISHMENT OF PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST ACCOUNTS; DEPOSITS IN
PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST ACCOUNTS.
(a) The Servicer shall cause to be established and maintained one or more
Principal and Interest Accounts for the Trust Fund, in one or more Designated
Depository Institutions, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts, which
may be interest-bearing or such accounts may be trust accounts wherein the
moneys therein are invested in Permitted Instruments, titled "The Money Store
Inc., in trust for the registered holders of The Money Store Asset Backed
Certificates, Series 1998-B and various Mortgagors"; provided, however, that for
so long as (i) (A) the Servicer remains an affiliate of FUNB, (B) no Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (C) FUNB maintains a
short-term rating of at least A-1 by S&P and P-1 by Xxxxx'x, and for five
Business Days following any reduction, suspension, termination or withdrawal in
either such rating, or (ii) following the occurrence and continuation of any
event described in subclause (i) of this paragraph, an arrangement is
established that is satisfactory to the Rating Agencies and the Certificate
Insurer which does not in itself result in (I) any reduction of any rating
issued in respect of the Certificates or (II) any reduction below investment
grade of the Certificates without the benefit of the Certificate Insurance
Policy, the Servicer, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein provided,
may establish and maintain the Principal and Interest Account as a deposit
account with FUNB. Each such Principal and Interest Account shall be insured by
the BIF or SAIF administered by the FDIC to the maximum extent provided by law.
The creation of any Principal and Interest Account shall be evidenced by a
letter agreement in the form of Exhibit C hereto.
A copy of such letter agreement shall be furnished to the Co-Trustees, the
Certificate Insurer and, upon request, any Certificateholder.
(b) The Servicer and each Subservicer shall deposit without duplication
(within 24 hours of receipt thereof) in the applicable Principal and Interest
Account and retain therein:
(i) all payments received after the Cut-Off Date on account of
principal on the Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Mortgage Loans, as the case
may be, including all Excess Payments, Principal Prepayments and
Curtailments received after the Cut-Off Date and all payments in respect of
the applicable FHA Insurance Premium;
(ii) all payments received after the Cut-Off Date on account of
interest on the Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Mortgage Loans, as the case may
be;
(iii) all Net Liquidation Proceeds received with respect to the Pool
I, Pool II or Pool III Mortgage Loans, as the case may be;
(iv) all Insurance Proceeds received with respect to the Pool I, Pool
II or Pool III Mortgage Loans, as the case may be (other than amounts to be
applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property, or
to be released to the Mortgagor in accordance with customary second
mortgage servicing procedures);
(v) all Released Mortgaged Property Proceeds received with respect to
the Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Mortgage Loans, as the case may be;
(vi) any amounts paid in connection with the purchase of any Pool I,
Pool II or Pool III Mortgage Loan, as the case may be, and the amount of
any Substitution Adjustment received with respect to the Pool I, Pool II or
Pool III Mortgage Loans, as the case may be, paid pursuant to Sections 2.05
and 3.03;
(vii) any amount required to be deposited in the applicable Principal
and Interest Account pursuant to Section 5.04, 5.08, 5.10 or 5.15(c); and
(viii) the amount of any credit life insurance premium refund which is
not due to the related Mortgagor.
Also, for each Mortgage Loan delivered to the Trust on the Closing Date
that was originated on or after August 1, 1998, the Servicer shall deposit in
the applicable Principal and Interest Account 30 days' interest on the original
principal balance of each such Mortgage Loan calculated at the applicable
Mortgage Interest Rate.
(c) The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Principal and Interest
Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicing Fee and the Contingency
Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan, and payments in the nature of prepayment
penalties or premiums, late payment charges and assumption fees, to the extent
received and permitted by Sections 7.01 and 7.03, together with the difference
between any Liquidation Proceeds and the related Net Liquidation Proceeds, need
not be deposited by the Servicer in the Principal and Interest Account.
(d) Any interest earnings on funds held in the Principal and Interest
Account paid by a Designated Depository Institution shall be for the account of
the Servicer and may only be withdrawn from the applicable Principal and
Interest Account by the Servicer immediately following its monthly remittance of
the Pool Available Remittance Amounts for the related Pool to the applicable
Co-Trustee. Any reference herein to amounts on deposit in the Principal and
Interest Account shall refer to amounts net of such investment earnings.
Section 5.04 PERMITTED WITHDRAWALS FROM THE PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST
ACCOUNTS.
The Servicer shall withdraw funds from the Principal and Interest Accounts
for the following purposes:
(a) to effect the remittance to the Co-Trustees on each Determination Date
as follows: the portion of the Excess Spread relating to the Mortgage Loans of
the related Pool and the portion of the Pool Available Remittance Amounts of the
related Pool, that are net of Compensating Interest and Monthly Advances for the
related Pool for the related Remittance Date to the applicable Co-Trustee for
deposit in the applicable Certificate Account. For the purposes of this Section
5.04(a), the calculation of the Pool Available Remittance Amounts shall be made
without reference to the actual deposit of funds in the respective Certificate
Accounts;
(b) to reimburse itself for any accrued unpaid Servicing Fees, unpaid
Contingency Fees, unreimbursed Monthly Advances and for unreimbursed Servicing
Advances to the extent that funds relating to such amount have been deposited in
the applicable Principal and Interest Account (and not netted from Monthly
Payments received). The Servicer's right to reimbursement for unpaid Servicing
Fees, unpaid Contingency Fees and, except as provided in the following sentence,
Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances shall be limited to Liquidation
Proceeds, Released Mortgaged Property Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds and such
other amounts as may be collected by the Servicer from the Mortgagor or
otherwise relating to the Mortgage Loan in respect of which such unreimbursed
amounts are owed. The Servicer's right to reimbursement for Servicing Advances
and Monthly Advances in excess of such amounts shall be limited to any late
collections of interest received on the related Pool of Mortgage Loans,
generally, including Liquidation Proceeds, Released Mortgaged Property Proceeds
and Insurance Proceeds and any other amounts which would otherwise be
distributed to the Class X or Class R Certificateholders; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that the Servicer's right to such reimbursement pursuant hereto shall be
subordinate to the rights of the applicable Class A, Class M and/or Class B
Certificateholders to receive the Shortfall Carryforward Amounts and the right
of the Certificate Insurer to receive the Pool Carry-Forward Amounts relating to
Pool I and Pool II;
(c) to withdraw any amount received from a Mortgagor that is recoverable
and sought to be recovered as a voidable preference by a trustee in bankruptcy
pursuant to the United States Bankruptcy Code in accordance with a final,
nonappealable order of a court having competent jurisdiction;
(d) (i) to make investments in Permitted Instruments and (ii) to pay to
itself, as permitted by Section 5.03(d), interest paid in respect of Permitted
Instruments or by a Designated Depository Institution on funds deposited in the
applicable Principal and Interest Account;
(e) to withdraw any funds deposited in the applicable Principal and
Interest Account that were not required to be deposited therein or were
deposited therein in error;
(f) (i) to pay itself servicing compensation pursuant to Section 7.03
hereof or interest as permitted under the definition of Excess Proceeds or (ii)
to pay the Remainder Excess Spread Amount with respect to any Remittance Date to
itself and/or the Representative for any Reimbursable Amounts and the remainder
to the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee for remittance to the Class X
Certificateholders, as the case may be;
(g) to withdraw amounts required to be deposited into the Servicing Account
pursuant to Section 6.15(a).
(h) to clear and terminate each Principal and Interest Account upon the
termination of the related Trust Fund.
So long as no default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, and consistent with any requirements of the Code, the Principal and
Interest Account shall either be maintained as an interest-bearing accounts
meeting the requirements set forth in Section 5.03(a), or the funds held therein
may be invested by the Servicer (to the extent practicable) in Permitted
Instruments. In either case, funds in the Principal and Interest Account must be
available for withdrawal without penalty, and any Permitted Instruments must
mature not later than the Business Day immediately preceding the Determination
Date next following the date of such investment (except that if such Permitted
Instrument is an obligation of the institution that maintains such account, then
such Permitted Instrument shall mature not later than such Determination Date)
and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All Permitted
Instruments must be held by or registered in the name of "The Money Store Inc.
in trust for the registered holders of The Money Store Asset Backed
Certificates, Series 1998-B." All interest or other earnings from funds on
deposit in the Principal and Interest Account (or any Permitted Instruments
thereof) shall be the exclusive property of the Servicer, and may be withdrawn
from either Principal and Interest Account pursuant to clause (d)(ii) above. The
amount of any losses incurred in connection with the investment of funds in the
applicable Principal and Interest Account in Permitted Instruments shall be
deposited in the applicable Principal and Interest Account by the Servicer from
its own funds immediately as realized without reimbursement therefor.
Section 5.05 PAYMENT OF TAXES, INSURANCE AND OTHER CHARGES.
With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall maintain accurate
records reflecting fire and hazard insurance coverage.
With respect to each Mortgage Loan which is a first Mortgage Loan, or as to
which the Servicer has advanced the outstanding principal balance of any Prior
Lien pursuant to Section 5.14 or as to which the Servicer maintains escrow
accounts, the Servicer shall maintain accurate records reflecting the status of
ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates and other charges which are or may
become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the status of primary mortgage
guaranty insurance premiums, if any, and fire and hazard insurance coverage and
shall obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such charges
(including renewal premiums) and shall effect payment thereof prior to the
applicable penalty or termination date and at a time appropriate for securing
maximum discounts allowable, employing for such purpose deposits of the
Mortgagor in any escrow account which shall have been estimated and accumulated
by the Servicer in amounts sufficient for such purposes, as allowed under the
terms of the Mortgage (provided, however, that to the extent the Servicer
advances its own funds, such advances shall constitute "Servicing Advances"). To
the extent that a Mortgage does not provide for escrow payments, the Servicer
shall determine that any such payments are made by the Mortgagor at the time
they first become due. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, the Servicer may choose not to make the payments described above on a
timely basis, provided that collections on the related Mortgage Loan that are
required to be remitted to the Trust Fund would not be reduced, as a result of
such failure to timely pay, from the amount that would otherwise be remitted to
the Trust Fund; provided further, however, that this provision shall not have
the effect of permitting the Servicer to take, or fail to take, any action in
respect of the payments described herein that would adversely affect the
interest of the Trust Fund in any Mortgaged Property.
Section 5.06 TRANSFER OF ACCOUNTS.
The Servicer may, upon written prior notice to the Co-Trustees and the
Certificate Insurer, transfer the Principal and Interest Account to a different
Designated Depository Institution.
Section 5.07 MAINTENANCE OF HAZARD INSURANCE.
The Servicer shall cause to be maintained, subject to the provisions of
Section 5.08 hereof, fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage customary
in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, in an amount which is at
least equal to the least of (a) the outstanding principal balance owing on the
Mortgage Loan and any Prior Lien, (b) the full insurable value of the premises
securing the Mortgage Loan and (c) the minimum amount required to compensate for
damage or loss on a replacement cost basis. If the Mortgaged Property is in an
area identified in the Federal Register by the Flood Emergency Management Agency
as having special flood hazards (and such flood insurance has been made
available) the Servicer will cause to be purchased a flood insurance policy with
a generally acceptable insurance carrier, in an amount representing coverage not
less than the least of (i) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage
Loan and any Prior Lien, (ii) the full insurable value of the Mortgaged
Property, or (iii) the maximum amount of insurance available under the National
Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended. The Servicer shall also maintain, to
the extent such insurance is available, on REO Property, fire and hazard
insurance in the amounts described above, liability insurance and, to the extent
required and available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as
amended, flood insurance in an amount equal to that required above. Any amounts
collected by the Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be
applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property, or to be
released to the Mortgagor in accordance with customary second mortgage servicing
procedures) shall be deposited in the applicable Principal and Interest Account,
subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 5.04. It is understood and agreed that
no earthquake or other additional insurance need be required by the Servicer of
any Mortgagor or maintained on REO Property, other than pursuant to such
applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall
require such additional insurance. All policies required hereunder shall be
endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses with losses payable to the Servicer.
Section 5.08 MAINTENANCE OF MORTGAGE IMPAIRMENT INSURANCE POLICY.
In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy
insuring against fire and hazards of extended coverage on all of the Mortgage
Loans, then, to the extent such policy names the Co-Trustees on behalf of the
Certificateholders as loss payee and provides coverage in an amount equal to the
aggregate unpaid principal balance on the Mortgage Loans without co-insurance,
and otherwise complies with the requirements of Section 5.07, the Servicer shall
be deemed conclusively to have satisfied its obligations with respect to fire
and hazard insurance coverage under Section 5.07, it being understood and agreed
that such blanket policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the
Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the
related Mortgaged Property a policy complying with Section 5.07, and there shall
have been a loss which would have been covered by such policy, deposit in the
applicable Principal and Interest Account from the Servicer's own funds the
difference, if any, between the amount that would have been payable under a
policy complying with Section 5.07 and the amount paid under such blanket
policy. Upon the request of the Certificate Insurer or a Co-Trustee, the
Servicer shall cause to be delivered to the Certificate Insurer and such
Co-Trustee, as the case may be, a certified true copy of such policy. The
current issuer of such policy is Lloyds of London.
Section 5.09 FIDELITY BOND.
The Servicer shall maintain with a responsible company, and at its own
expense, a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy,
in a minimum amount equal to $1,500,000, and a maximum deductible of $100,000,
if commercially available, with coverage on all employees acting in any capacity
requiring them to handle funds, money, documents or papers relating to the
Mortgage Loans ("Servicer Employees"). The fidelity bond shall insure the Co-
Trustees and their respective officers, and employees, against losses resulting
from forgery, theft, embezzlement or fraud, by such Servicer Employees. The
errors and omissions policy shall insure against losses resulting from the
errors, omissions and negligent acts of such Servicer Employees. No provision of
this Section 5.09 requiring such fidelity bond and errors and omissions
insurance shall relieve the Servicer from its duties as set forth in this
Agreement. Upon the request of a Co-Trustee or the Certificate Insurer, the
Servicer shall cause to be delivered to such Co-Trustee or the Certificate
Insurer a certified true copy of such fidelity bond and insurance policy. The
current issuer of such fidelity bond and insurance policy is National Union Fire
Insurance Company of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Section 5.10 TITLE, MANAGEMENT AND DISPOSITION OF REO PROPERTY.
In the event that title to the Mortgaged Property is acquired in
foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure (an "REO Property"), the deed or
certificate of sale shall, subject to Section 12.10, be taken in the name of the
Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee (or, with respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans,
the Pool III Co-Trustee) for the benefit of the applicable Certificateholders.
The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property
for the Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer (with respect to any REO
Property that was a Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loan) solely for the purpose of
its prudent and prompt disposition and sale. The Servicer shall, either itself
or through an agent selected by the Servicer, manage, conserve, protect and
operate the REO Property in the same manner that it manages, conserves, protects
and operates other foreclosed property for its own account, and in the same
manner that similar property in the same locality as the REO Property is
managed. The Servicer shall attempt to sell the same (and may temporarily rent
the same) on such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best
interest of the Certificate Insurer (with respect to any REO Property that was a
Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loan) and the Pool I, Pool II or Pool III
Certificateholders, as the case may be.
The Servicer shall cause to be deposited in the applicable Principal and
Interest Account, no later than five Business Days after the receipt thereof,
all revenues received with respect to the conservation and disposition of the
related REO Property net of funds necessary for the proper operation, management
and maintenance of the REO Property and the fees of any managing agent acting on
behalf of the Servicer.
The disposition of REO Property shall be carried out by the Servicer at
such price, and upon such terms and conditions, as the Servicer deems to be in
the best interest of the Pool I, Pool II or Pool III Certificateholders, as the
case may be and (with respect to any REO Property that was a Pool I or Pool II
Mortgage Loan) the Certificate Insurer. The proceeds of sale of the REO Property
shall be promptly deposited in the Principal and Interest Account as received
from time to time and, as soon as practicable thereafter, the expenses of such
sale shall be paid, the Servicer shall, subject to Section 5.04, reimburse
itself for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances, unpaid Servicing Fees,
unpaid Contingency Fees and unreimbursed Monthly Advances, and the Servicer
shall deposit in the Principal and Interest Account the net cash proceeds of
such sale to be distributed to the Pool I, Pool II or Pool III
Certificateholders, as the case may be, in accordance with Section 6.08 hereof.
In the event any Mortgaged Property is acquired as aforesaid or otherwise
in connection with a default or imminent default on a Mortgage Loan, the
Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged Property before the end of the third
calendar year following the year of its acquisition unless the Servicer shall
have received an Opinion of Counsel also addressed to the applicable Co-Trustee
and the Certificate Insurer (if such Mortgage Loan is a Pool I or Pool II
Mortgage Loan) to the effect that the holding of such Mortgaged Property
subsequent to such period will not result in the imposition of taxes on
"prohibited transactions" as defined in section 860F of the Code or cause either
REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Pool I,
Pool II, Pool III or Class X Certificates are outstanding. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, no Mortgaged Property acquired by the
Servicer pursuant to this Section shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be
rented) or otherwise used for the production of income by or on behalf of the
Trust Fund, and no construction shall take place on such Mortgaged Property, in
such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would cause such Mortgaged Property
to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section
860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by the Trust Fund of any "income
from non-permitted assets" which is subject to taxation within the meaning of
Sections 860G(c) and 857(b)(4)(B) of the Code. If a period greater than the
three calendar year period referred to above is permitted under this Agreement
and is necessary to sell any REO Property, the Servicer shall give appropriate
notice to the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee and the Certificate Insurer (with
respect to a Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loan) or the Pool III Co-Trustee (with
respect to a Pool III Mortgage Loan) and shall report monthly to the applicable
Co-Trustee as to the progress being made in selling such REO Property.
Section 5.11 CERTAIN TAX INFORMATION.
The Servicer shall furnish (a) any information which may be required under
the Code including the computation of the present value of the "excess
inclusions" (as defined in Section 860E of the Code) with respect to any
transfer of a Class R Certificate, and, upon request, shall provide such
information to any Holder of a Class R Certificate and to the Internal Revenue
Service within 60 days of such request for a reasonable fee and (b) the
information required to be furnished pursuant to Sections 1.860F-4 and 1.6049-7
of the Regulations.
Section 5.12 COLLECTION OF CERTAIN MORTGAGE LOAN PAYMENTS.
The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called
for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and shall, to the
extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement, comply with the
terms and provisions of any applicable hazard insurance policy. Consistent with
the foregoing, the Servicer may in its discretion waive or permit to be waived
any late payment charge, prepayment charge, assumption fee or any penalty
interest in connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan or any other fee
or charge which the Servicer would be entitled to retain hereunder as servicing
compensation and extend the due date for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a
period (with respect to each payment as to which the due date is extended) not
greater than 125 days after the initially scheduled due date for such payment
provided that the Servicer determines such extension would not be considered a
new mortgage loan for federal income tax purposes. In the event the Servicer
shall consent to the deferment of the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage
Note, the Servicer shall nonetheless make payment of any required Monthly
Advance with respect to the payments so extended to the same extent as if such
installment were due, owing and delinquent and had not been deferred, and shall
be entitled to reimbursement therefor in accordance with Section 5.04(b) hereof.
Section 5.13 ACCESS TO CERTAIN DOCUMENTATION AND INFORMATION REGARDING THE
MORTGAGE LOANS.
The Servicer shall provide to the Co-Trustees, the Certificateholders, the
Certificate Insurer, the FDIC, the Office of Thrift Supervision and the
supervisory agents and examiners of each of the foregoing access to the
documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans required by applicable local, state
and federal regulations, such access being afforded without charge but only upon
reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the
Servicer designated by it.
Section 5.14 SUPERIOR LIENS.
The Servicer shall file of record a request for notice of any action by a
superior lienholder under a Prior Lien for the protection of the Pool I and Pool
II Co-Trustee's interest (or, with respect to a Pool III Mortgage Loan, the Pool
III Co-Trustee), where permitted by local law and whenever applicable state law
does not require that a junior lienholder be named as a party defendant in
foreclosure proceedings in order to foreclose such junior lienholder's equity of
redemption. The Servicer must also notify any superior lienholder in writing of
the existence of the Mortgage Loan and request notification of any action (as
described below) to be taken against the Mortgagor or the Mortgaged Property by
the superior lienholder.
If the Servicer is notified that any superior lienholder has accelerated or
intends to accelerate the obligations secured by any Prior Lien, or has declared
or intends to declare a default under the mortgage or the promissory note
secured thereby, or has filed or intends to file an election to have the
Mortgaged Property sold or foreclosed, the Servicer shall take, on behalf of the
Trust Fund, whatever actions are necessary to protect the interests of the
related Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer, in the case of Pool I or
Pool II Mortgage Loans, and/or to preserve the security of the related Mortgage
Loan, subject to the application of the REMIC Provisions. The Servicer shall
immediately notify the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee and the Certificate Insurer
(with respect to a Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loan) or the Pool III Co-Trustee
(with respect to a Pool III Mortgage Loan) of any such action or circumstances.
The Servicer will advance the necessary funds to cure the default or reinstate
the superior lien, if such advance is in the best interests of the Certificate
Insurer, in the case of Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loans, and the related
Certificateholders. The Servicer shall thereafter take such action as is
necessary to recover the amount so advanced.
Section 5.15 DUTIES OF THE CLAIMS ADMINISTRATOR.
(a) In connection with each FHA Loan, the Representative, the Servicer, the
Claims Administrator, the FHA Custodian and the Originators will comply at all
times with the provisions of Title I and the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder in servicing each FHA Loan and making claims for reimbursement with
respect to each FHA Loan, and the FHA Custodian will at all times hold a valid
Contract of Insurance from the FHA for such purposes (unless such Contract of
Insurance is terminated so as not to affect the obligation of FHA to provide
insurance coverage with respect to the FHA Loans).
(b) If any FHA Loan becomes a 90 Day Delinquent FHA Loan, and if
sufficient, coverage is available in the Reserve Amount to make an FHA Payment
with respect to such FHA Loan, the Claims Administrator, on behalf of the FHA
Custodian, may, in its sole discretion, during any subsequent Due Period,
determine to file a Claim with the FHA with respect to such 90 Day Delinquent
FHA Loan. If the Claims Administrator determines to file such a Claim, the
Claims Administrator will notify FUNB, the Pool III Co-Trustee and the FHA
Custodian no later than the Determination Date following such determination by
an Officer's Certificate in the form of Exhibit J-1 hereto and shall request
delivery of the related Trustee's Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such
certification and request, the Pool III Co-Trustee shall, no later than the
later of the related Remittance Date and the date that is three Business Days
after the request is received, release to FUNB, for delivery to the Claims
Administrator, the related Trustee's Mortgage File and the Pool III Co-Trustee
and the FHA Custodian shall execute and deliver such instruments furnished by
the Claims Administrator or FUNB necessary to enable the Claims Administrator to
file a Claim with the FHA on behalf of the FHA Custodian. Within 120 days of its
receipt of the related Trustee's Mortgage File, the Claims Administrator shall,
in its sole discretion, either file a Claim with the FHA for an FHA Payment with
respect to such 90 Day Delinquent FHA Loan or, if the Claims Administrator
determines not to file such a Claim, return to FUNB, for delivery to the Pool
III Co-Trustee, the related Trustee's Mortgage File.
(c) With respect to any 90 Day Delinquent FHA Loan transferred to the
Claims Administrator pursuant to clause (b) above, the Claims Administrator
shall deposit (or, if the Claims Administrator is not also the Servicer, the
Claims Administrator shall instruct the Servicer to deposit) in the Principal
and Interest Account within 24 hours of receipt the following amounts (such
amounts to be net of any amounts that would be reimbursable to the Servicer
under Section 5.04(b) with respect to amounts in the Principal and Interest
Account): (i) any FHA Payments; (ii) the amount, if any, by which the FHA
Payment was reduced in accordance with FHA Regulations due to the Claims
Administrator enforcing a lien on the Mortgaged Property prior to the lien of
the related 90 Day Delinquent FHA Loan; and (iii) any principal and interest
payments received with respect to a 90 Day Delinquent FHA Loan after the Due
Period in which the FHA Loan is transferred to the Claims Administrator and
before either the related FHA Payment is paid or the related Trustee's Mortgage
File is returned to the Pool III Co-Trustee, as the case may be (the amounts
referred to in (ii) and (iii) above are referenced to herein as "Related
Payments").
(d) If an FHA Loan becomes a 90 Day Delinquent FHA Loan when there is
insufficient coverage in the Reserve Amount, or if the Claims Administrator
determines not to file a Claim with the FHA with respect to such 90 Day
Delinquent FHA Loan, the Claims Administrator shall not request the transfer of
such FHA Loan to the Claims Administrator, no Claim will be made to the FHA and
the Servicer may take other action, including the commencement of foreclosure
proceedings on the related Mortgaged Property.
(e) If a Claim is rejected by the FHA and if the Claims Administrator is no
longer The Money Store Inc., the Claims Administrator shall promptly notify the
Servicer and the Representative of such rejection. Further, if a Claim is
rejected by the FHA, other than as a result of depletion of the Reserve Amount,
the related Originator shall be deemed to have breached its representation and
warranty contained in Section 3.02 (nnn) and the Representative shall be
required to repurchase the related 90 Day Delinquent FHA Loan by depositing in
the Principal and Interest Account, on the next succeeding Determination Date,
an amount and in the manner specified in Section 2.05(b).

If, at any time the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Expense Accounts

the benefit of the Certificate Insurer, titled "TMS MBIA Insurance Account
1998-B-I" and "TMS MBIA Insurance Account 1998-B-II" (each an "Insurance

the terms of the Insurance Agreement, the Certificate Insurer shall make demand
on the Servicer to advance the amount of such insufficiency, and the Servicer
shall promptly advance such amount to the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee for

(b) The Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee may invest amounts on deposit in each

last paragraph of subclause (a) above to the extent such funds are not
needed to pay the Monthly Premium.
If sufficient funds are available in the Insurance Account to timely pay
the Monthly Premium, the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee has received from the
Servicer any information necessary to determine the amount of the Monthly
Premium and the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee and the Insurance Paying Agent (if
the Insurance Paying Agent and the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee are the same
party) fail to timely remit the Monthly Premium to the Certificate Insurer from
funds on deposit in the Insurance Account in accordance with subsections (a) and
(b) above, the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee shall, contemporaneous with the
payment of the Monthly Premium, pay to the Certificate Insurer from its own
funds, for which reimbursement shall not be available, interest on the Monthly
Premium at the Prime Rate published in the most recent Wall Street Journal plus
3.0% for each day that the Monthly Premium is not paid to the Certificate
Insurer.
Section 6.05 ESTABLISHMENT OF SPREAD ACCOUNT; DEPOSITS IN SPREAD ACCOUNT;
PERMITTED WITHDRAWALS FROM SPREAD ACCOUNT.
(a) If required by the Certificate Insurer, the Representative shall, no
later than the Closing Date, establish and maintain with the Pool I and Pool II
Co-Trustee in its trust department a trust account, which shall not be
interest-bearing, titled "TMS Spread Account 1998-B" (the "Spread Account").
The Spread Account shall constitute part of the Trust Fund but shall not be an
asset of either REMIC I or REMIC II. It is an outside reserve fund, the owners
of which are the Holders of the Class X Certificates and for federal tax
purposes, amounts, if any, transferred by REMIC I to the Spread Account are
treated as distributed by REMIC I to the Holders of the Class X Certificates.
The Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee shall, promptly upon receipt, deposit into the
Spread Account:

for Pool I and Pool II exceeds its respective Specified Subordinated Amount
and the amount deposited into the Spread Account pursuant to Section
6.14(b)(v) equals the full amount required to be deposited pursuant
thereto, distribute the excess, if any, of the Pool Subordinated Amounts
for Pool I and Pool II for such Remittance Date over the Pool I and Pool II
Specified Subordinated Amounts, respectively, for such Remittance Date, to
the Holders of the Class X Certificates (provided, however, that any such
excess shall be applied first to the payment of the Certificateholders of
the other such Pool in an amount up to the Subordinated Deficiency Amount
with respect to such Pool (allocated among the Certificates in Pool I in
the same order principal payments are made with respect to Pool I) pursuant
to Section 6.14(b)(vii) and then to the payment of any Subordination
Deficit with respect to Pool I and/or Pool II and/or any current Realized
Loss which would otherwise be allocated to Pool III in reduction of the
Class Principal Balances of the Certificates thereof, pro rata based upon
the amounts so required by each such Pool of Certificates) in accordance
with Section 6.14(b)(ix) hereof);
(iv) distribute to the Holders of the Class X Certificates such
amounts then remaining on deposit in the Spread Account as the Certificate
Insurer may consent to in writing;
(v) withdraw any amounts not required to be deposited in the Spread

The FHA Premium Account shall not be available for payment of Certificates. The
Pool III Co-Trustee shall deposit into the FHA Premium Account:
(i) on each Remittance Date, prior to making the remittances required
pursuant to Section 6.08(c), upon receipt from the applicable Certificate
Account, an amount equal to the FHA Premium Amount as specified by the
Servicer or the Claims Administrator; and
(ii) upon receipt, amounts required to be paid by the Servicer
pursuant to Section 6.07(e) in connection with losses on investments of

written instructions from the Servicer, withdraw an amount from the FHA Premium
Account sufficient to pay in full the FHA Insurance Premium as specified by the
Servicer or the Claims Administrator then due.
(b) The Pool III Co-Trustee may invest amounts on deposit in the FHA

Section 6.07 INVESTMENT OF ACCOUNTS.
(a) So long as no default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, and consistent with any requirements of the Code, all or a portion
of any Account held by a Co-Trustee shall be invested and reinvested by such
Co-Trustee as directed in writing by the Servicer, in one or more Permitted
Instruments bearing interest or sold at a discount. No such investment in the
Certificate Accounts shall mature later than the Business Day immediately
preceding the next Remittance Date and no such investment in the Insurance
Accounts, Expense Accounts, FHA Premium Account or Spread Account shall mature
later than the Business Day immediately preceding the date such funds will be
needed to pay fees or premiums or be transferred to the applicable Certificate
Account, as the case may be; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, a Co-Trustee or any affiliate
thereof may be the obligor on any investment which otherwise qualifies as a
Permitted Instrument and any investment on which the Pool I and Pool II
Co-Trustee is the obligor may mature on such Remittance Date or date when
needed, as the case may be.
(b) If any amounts are needed for disbursement from any Account held by a
Co-Trustee and sufficient uninvested funds are not available to make such
disbursement, such Co-Trustee shall cause to be sold or otherwise converted to
cash a sufficient amount of the investments in such Account. The Co-Trustees
shall not be liable for any investment loss or other charge resulting therefrom.
(c) Subject to Section 12.01 hereof, the Co-Trustees shall not in any way
be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in any Account held by the
Co-Trustees resulting from any investment loss on any Permitted Instrument
included therein (except to the extent that a Co-Trustee is the obligor
thereon).
(d) The Co-Trustees shall invest and reinvest funds in the Accounts held by
them to the fullest extent practicable, in such manner as the Servicer shall
from time to time direct in writing, but only in one or more Permitted
Instruments.
(e) All income or other gain from investments in any Account held by a Co-
Trustee shall be deposited in such Account, immediately on receipt, and such
Co-Trustee shall notify the Servicer of any loss resulting from such
investments. The Servicer shall remit the amount of any such loss from its own
funds, without reimbursement therefor, to the applicable Co-Trustee for deposit
in the Account from which the related funds were withdrawn for investment by the
next Determination Date following receipt by the Servicer of such notice.
Section 6.08 PRIORITY AND SUBORDINATION OF DISTRIBUTIONS.
(a) The rights of the Certificateholders to receive distributions from the
proceeds of the Trust Fund, and all ownership interests of the
Certificateholders in such distributions, shall be as set forth in this
Agreement. In this regard, all rights of the Class X and Class R
Certificateholders to receive distributions in respect of the Class X and Class
R Certificates, respectively, and all ownership interests of the Class X and
Class R Certificateholders in and to such distributions, shall be subject and
subordinate to the preferential rights of the Class A, Class M and Class B
Certificateholders, to receive distributions in respect of the Class A, Class M
and Class B Certificates, respectively, and the ownership interests of the Class
A, Class M and Class B Certificateholders, respectively, in such distributions,
as described herein. In accordance with the foregoing, the ownership interests
of the Class X and Class R Certificateholders in amounts deposited in the
applicable Principal and Interest Account or in any Accounts from time to time
shall not vest unless and until such amounts are distributed in respect of the
Class X and Class R Certificates in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Class
X and Class R Certificateholders shall not be required to refund any amount
properly distributed on the Class X and Class R Certificates.
(b) [Reserved]
(c) As soon as possible, and in no event later than 10:00 a.m. New York
time on the Business Day immediately preceding each Remittance Date, the Pool I
and Pool II Co-Trustee shall furnish the Certificate Insurer and the Servicer
with a completed notice in the form set forth as Exhibit L (the "Notice")
hereto, which will be based upon the information set forth in the Servicer's
Certificate, in the event that an Event of Nonpayment will occur with respect to
such Remittance Date. The Notice shall specify the total amount of the Insured
Payment to be paid on the applicable Remittance Date, stated separately for each
Class of Pool I or Pool II Certificates, as applicable, and shall constitute a
claim for an Insured Payment pursuant to the applicable Certificate Insurance
Policy. The Certificate Insurer shall remit or cause to be remitted to the
Insurance Paying Agent the amount of the Insured Payment. Upon receipt of such
Insured Payment by the Insurance Paying Agent on behalf of the Holders of the
respective Class of Pool I or Pool II Certificates under the applicable
Certificate Insurance Policy, it shall remit such amounts to the Pool I and Pool
II Co-Trustee who shall deposit such Insured Payment in the applicable
Certificate Account and shall distribute such Insured Payment in accordance with
Sections 6.08(d)(X) and (e) hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Nonpayment with respect to
Pool I or Pool II will occur with respect to a Remittance Date and funds are on
deposit in the Spread Account, the amount of the Insured Payment shall be
reduced up to the amount then on deposit in the Spread Account. Pursuant to
Section 6.05(b)(ii), the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee shall, on such Remittance
Date, transfer such amount to the applicable Certificate Account from the Spread
Account.
The Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee shall serve as Insurance Paying Agent
hereunder for so long as a Certificate Insurance Policy shall remain in effect;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Insurance Paying Agent may be located in another
jurisdiction with the written consent of the Certificate Insurer. The Insurance
Paying Agent shall act as the agent of the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee and
shall (i) pay amounts required by Section 6.04(b)(i) hereof to the Certificate
Insurer, (ii) pay Insured Payments received from the Certificate Insurer as the
Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee shall direct and (iii) take such other actions
with respect to the Certificate Insurer and the Certificate Insurance Policies
as the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee shall direct. The Pool I and Pool II Co-
Trustee shall act initially as the Insurance Paying Agent.
The Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee shall receive through the Insurance
Paying Agent, as attorney-in-fact of each Holder of Pool I or Pool II
Certificates, any Insured Payment from the Certificate Insurer and disburse the
same to each Holder of Pool I or Pool II Certificates in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 6.08. Insured Payments disbursed by the Pool I and
Pool II Co-Trustee from proceeds of the Certificate Insurance Policies shall not
be considered payment by the Trust Fund nor shall such payments discharge the
obligation of the Trust Fund with respect to such Pool I or Pool II
Certificates, and the Certificate Insurer shall become the owner of such unpaid
amounts of Insured Payments due from the Trust Fund in respect of such
Certificates. The Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee hereby agrees on behalf of each
Holder of Pool I or Pool II Certificates for the benefit of the Certificate
Insurer that it recognizes that to the extent the Certificate Insurer makes
Insured Payments, either directly or indirectly (as by paying through the
Insurance Paying Agent), to the Pool I or Pool II Certificateholders, the
Certificate Insurer will be subrogated to the rights of the such Pool I or Pool
II Certificateholders with respect to such Insured Payment, shall be deemed to
the extent of the payments so made to be a registered Certificateholder of the
related Class, and shall receive the Pool Carry-Forward Amounts of the related
Pools in accordance with Section 6.08(d)(X) below until all such Insured
Payments by the Certificate Insurer have been fully reimbursed. To evidence such
subrogation, the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee shall, or shall cause the
applicable Certificate Registrar to, note the Certificate Insurer's rights as
subrogee on the registration books maintained by the Pool I and Pool II
Co-Trustee or the applicable Certificate Registrar upon receipt from the
Certificate Insurer of proof of payment of any Insured Payment.
Each Pool I or Pool II Certificateholder shall promptly (i) notify the Pool
I and Pool II Co-Trustee in writing upon the receipt of a court order to the
effect that any amounts described in Clause (iv) of the definition of Pool
Remittance Amount constitute a voidable preference pursuant to the United States
Bankruptcy Code and (ii) shall enclose a certified copy of such order with such
notice to the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee.
(d) (X) With respect to Pool I and Pool II, on each Remittance Date, and
after making the allocations set forth in Section 6.14, the Pool I and Pool II
Co-Trustee shall withdraw from the applicable Certificate Account the sum of (i)
the Pool Available Amount for each such Pool and (ii) the Remainder Excess
Spread Amount for each such Pool, net of reimbursements to the Servicer or the
Representative for Reimbursable Advances pursuant to Section 5.04(f), and make
distributions thereof in the following order of priority (based solely upon
information received from the Servicer):
(i) to the Expense Account relating to Pool I or Pool II, an amount
equal to one-twelfth of the Annual Expense Escrow Amount with respect to
the Mortgage Loans of the related Pool, plus any amount required to be paid
to the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee or the Trust Administrator pursuant to
Section 6.03(a) resulting from insufficiencies in the applicable Expense
Account;
(ii) then to the Certificateholders of each such Pool, the lesser of
the Pool Available Amount for the related Pool less the amount applied
under clause (i) with respect to such Pool and the Pool Remittance Amount
for the related Pool first in payment of the applicable Class Current
Interest Requirements and then in reduction of the applicable Class
Principal Balances of the applicable Certificates;
(iii) then to the Servicer and/or the Representative, an amount, if
any, equal to the Reimbursable Amounts with respect to the applicable Pool
to the extent the Servicer has not previously netted such amounts from
Monthly Payments;
(iv) [Reserved];
(v) then to the Class X Certificateholders, an amount equal to the sum
of the Pool Remaining Amount Available for Pool I and the Pool Remaining
Amount Available for Pool II and;
(vi) then to the Class R-2 Certificateholders, any remainder.
(I) On each Remittance Date, the amount to be distributed to the Pool I
Certificates pursuant to clause (ii) above will be allocated in the following
order of priority:
(A) first, concurrently to the Certificateholders of each Class of Pool I
Certificates, the applicable Class Current Interest Requirement for such
Remittance Date, pro rata in accordance with such Class Current Interest
Requirements;
(B) second, to the Class AF-8 and Class AF-9 Certificateholders,
sequentially in that order, until the Class Principal Balance of each such Class
is reduced to zero, an amount equal to the NAS Class Principal Distribution
Amount for such Remittance Date; and
(C) third, to the Class AF-1, Class AF-2, Class AF-3, Class AF-4, Class
AF-5, Class AF-6, Class AF-7, Class AF-8 and Class AF-9 Certificateholders,
sequentially in that order, the excess, if any, of the amount to be distributed
to the Pool I Certificates on such Remittance Date over the amount distributed
pursuant to (A) and (B) above, until the Class Principal Balance of each such
Class (in ascending order of numerical designation) is reduced to zero and such
Certificateholders have received an amount equal to the amount described in
clause (iv) of the definition of Pool Remittance Amount that is recovered from
such Certificateholders.
(II) On each Remittance Date, the amount to be distributed to the Pool II
Certificates pursuant to clause (ii) above will be allocated in the following
order of priority:
(A) first, to the Certificateholders of the Class AV Certificates, the
Class Current Interest Requirement for the Class AV Certificates for such
Remittance Date; and
(B) second, to the Class AV Certificateholders, the excess, if any, of the
amount to be distributed to the Pool II Certificates on such Remittance Date
over the amount distributed pursuant to (A) above, until the Class Principal
Balance of such Class is reduced to zero and such Certificateholders have
received an amount equal to the amount described in clause (iv) of the
definition of Pool Remittance Amount that is recovered from such
Certificateholders.
(Y) [Reserved]
(Z) With respect to Pool III, on each Remittance Date, and after making the
allocations set forth in Section 6.14, the Pool III Co-Trustee shall withdraw
from the applicable Certificate Account the Pool Available Amount for such Pool,
net of reimbursements to the Servicer or the Representative for Reimbursable
Advances pursuant to Section 5.04(f) and net of amounts withdrawn pursuant to
Section 6.01(b)(ii) to make deposits to the FHA Premium Account, and make
distributions thereof in the following order of priority (based solely upon
information provided by the Servicer or Trust Administrator):

one-twelfth of the Annual Expense Escrow Amount with respect to the Pool
III Mortgage Loans, plus any amount required to be paid to the Pool III
Co-Trustee, the Trust Administrator or the FHA Custodian pursuant to
Section 6.03(a) resulting from insufficiencies in such Expense Account;
(ii) after the payment of the amounts specified in clause (i) above,
to pay the Class Current Interest Requirement concurrently to the Holders
of the Pool III Class A Certificates, pro rata to each Class of Pool III

(e) All distributions made to the Certificateholders on each Remittance
Date will be made on a pro rata basis among the Certificateholders of the
respective Class of record on the next preceding Record Date based on the
Percentage Interest represented by their respective Certificates, and shall,
except for the final payment on such Certificates, be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the account of such Certificateholder as shall
appear on the Certificate Register without the presentation or surrender of the
Certificate or the making of any notation thereon, at a bank or other entity
having appropriate facilities therefor, at the expense of each such
Certificateholder unless such Certificateholder shall own of record Certificates
which have original principal amounts aggregating (i) at least $5,000,000 or
(ii) one of the two highest outstanding amounts less than $5,000,000.
Section 6.09 ALLOCATION OF REALIZED LOSSES.
(a) With respect to Pool I and Pool II, prior to each Determination Date,
the Servicer shall determine the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, that
occurred in the related Due Period for Pool I and Pool II. The amount of each
Realized Loss shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate, stated separately
for each Pool of Mortgage Loans, and, to the extent paid by the Certificate
Insurer as an Insured Payment, shall constitute a Pool Carry-Forward Amount for
the related Pool. Any Realized Losses relating to the Mortgage Loans of Pool I
or Pool II shall be allocated to each outstanding Class of Certificates of such
Pool (pro rata in the case of Pool I in accordance with the respective Class
Principal Balances of each such Class), but only if and to the extent that the
Certificateholders of such Pool did not receive Insured Payments in connection
with the related Unrecovered Pool Portions on the Remittance Date on which a
Subordination Deficit occurs. Further, any allocation of Realized Losses among a
Class of Certificates shall be made on a pro rata basis among the
Certificateholders of record of such Class on the next preceding Record Date
based on the Percentage Interest represented by their respective Certificates by
reducing their respective Principal Balances by the amount so allocated, which
allocation shall be deemed to have occurred on the related Remittance Date.
(b) With respect to Pool III, on and after the Remittance Date on which the
Pool Available Maximum Subordinated Amount for Pool III has been reduced to
zero, (i) no further Interest Shortfall Carryforward Amounts or Unpaid Realized
Loss Amounts for the Pool III Class M or Class B Certificates, respectively,
shall be carried forward to succeeding Remittance Dates or be created as a
result of shortfalls in the Pool Available Remittance Amount, and (ii) interest
shall cease to accrue on all Interest Shortfall Carryforward Amounts remaining
outstanding at the time the related Pool Available Maximum Subordinated Amount
becomes zero.
If on any Remittance Date after taking into account all Realized Losses
experienced during the prior Due Period and after taking into account the
distribution of principal (including the applicable Accelerated Principal
Distribution Amount) with respect to the Pool III Certificates on such
Remittance Date, the aggregate Class Principal Balance of the Pool III
Certificates, as applicable exceeds the aggregate Principal Balance of the Pool
III Mortgage Loans, respectively, as of the end of the related Due Period, then
the Class Principal Balance of the Pool III Class M and/or Class B Certificates,
as applicable, will be reduced (in effect, "written down") such that the level
of the Spread Amount is zero, rather than negative. The resulting Pool Applied
Realized Loss Amount for the applicable Class will be applied as a reduction in
the Class Principal Balance of the related Pool III Class M and/or Class B
Certificates in reverse order of seniority, I.E., first against the Class BH
Class Principal Balance until it is reduced to zero, then against the Class MH-2
Class Principal Balance until it is reduced to zero, and then against the Class
MH-1 Class Principal Balance until it is reduced to zero. In no event shall the
Class Principal Balance of any Class A Certificate be written down as a result
of applying Realized Losses.
Once the Class Principal Balance of a Class of Pool III Class M and/or
Class B Certificates, as applicable, has been "written down," the amount of such
write down will no longer bear interest, nor will such amount thereafter be
"reinstated" or "written up," although the amount of such write down may, on
future Remittance Dates, be paid to Holders of the Pool III Class M and/or Class
B Certificates which experienced the write down, in direct order of seniority as
distributions on account of the related Class MH-1, Class MH-2 or Class BH
Realized Loss Amounts, as applicable.

the Mortgage Loans of the related Pool with respect to such Remittance Date
exceeds (b) the amount received by the Servicer as of the related Record Date in

compensation, an amount (such amount required to be delivered to the applicable
Co-Trustee is referred to herein as "Compensating Interest") (as indicated in
the Servicer's Certificate prepared pursuant to Section 6.10) equal to the
difference between (a) 30 days' interest (or, with respect to a Pool II Loan,

Insurer reports relating to each instance occurring during the previous calendar
year in which the Servicer (i) on behalf of the Trust Fund acquires an interest
in a Mortgaged Property through foreclosure or other comparable conversion in
full or partial satisfaction of the Mortgage Loan, or (ii) knows or has reason
to know that a Mortgaged Property has been abandoned. The reports from the
Servicer shall be in form and substance sufficient to enable the Co-Trustees to
meet the reporting requirements imposed by such Section 6050J.
Section 6.14 ALLOCATION OF TOTAL MONTHLY EXCESS CASHFLOW.
(a) On each Remittance Date, for each Pool of Mortgage Loans the applicable
Co-Trustee shall, based solely upon information provided in the related
Servicer's Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6.10, allocate an amount
equal to the sum of (x) the Monthly Excess Spread with respect to each such Pool
and Remittance Date plus (y) any Subordination Reduction Amount with respect to
each such Pool and Remittance Date plus (z) with respect to Pool I or Pool II
any Pool Available Remittance Amount Surplus with respect to each such Pool
(such sum being the "Total Monthly Excess Cashflow" with respect to such Pool
and Remittance Date), in the following order of priority:
(i) FIRST, to the related Pool in an amount up to (A) the Pool
Available Remittance Amount Shortfall for such Pool in the case of Pool I
and Pool II and (B) the excess of (x) the sum of the aggregate Current
Interest Requirements for the Certificates of such respective Pool, plus
the Pool III Class A, Class MH-1, Class MH-2 and Class BH Principal
Distribution Amounts with respect to Pool III over (y) the Pool Available
Amount for the respective Pool calculated without giving effect to the
addition of any Total Monthly Excess Cashflows pursuant to clause (ii) of
the definition of Pool Available Amount;
(ii) SECOND, with respect to Pool I and Pool II to the Certificate
Insurer in respect of amounts owed on account of any Insured Payments
theretofore made with respect to the related Pool of Mortgage Loans (any
such amount so owed to the Certificate Insurer and not theretofore paid,
together with accrued interest thereon, the "Insurer Reimbursable Amount"
with respect to the related Pool of Mortgage Loans); and
(iii) THIRD, with respect to Pool I and Pool II to the Certificate
Insurer in respect of any Insurer Reimbursable Amount with respect to the
other such Pool;
(b) The amount, if any, of the Total Monthly Excess Cashflow with respect
to a Pool of Mortgage Loans on a Remittance Date remaining after the allocations
described in (a) above is the "Net Monthly Excess Cashflow" with respect to such
Pool for such Remittance Date; such amount is required to be applied in the
following order of priority:
(i) FIRST, in the case of Pool III, to reduce the Pool III Class A
Interest Carryforward Amount, and, in the case of Pool I and Pool II, to
reduce the Pool Carry-Forward Amount;
(ii) SECOND, [Reserved];
(iii) THIRD, to the related Pool, in an amount up to the Subordinated
Deficiency Amount for such Pool as of such Remittance Date;
(iv) FOURTH, in the case of Pool III to reduce the related Class M and
Class B Interest Shortfall Carryforward Amounts and then the Class Realized
Loss Amounts in the order provided under Section 6.08(d)(Z)(xi)-(xvi),
respectively;
(v) FIFTH, [Reserved];
(vi) SIXTH, to the Servicer to the extent of any unreimbursed
Servicing Advances and accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees;
(vii) SEVENTH, in the case of Pool I and Pool II, to pay the
Certificateholders of the other such Pool (in the order provided for the
payment of principal in the case of Pool I) an amount up to the amount of
any Subordinated Deficiency Amount until its Specified Subordination Amount
is reached;
(viii) EIGHTH, to the Pool II Certificateholders to the extent of any
Certificateholders' Interest Carryover owing for such Remittance Date and
all prior Remittance Dates (to the extent such Net Monthly Excess Cashflow
is attributable to Pool II Mortgage Loans);
(ix) NINTH, to provide funds to Pool I and/or Pool II to cover any
Subordination Deficit with respect to such respective Pool prior to a claim
being made against the applicable Certificate Insurance Policy and/or Pool
III to cover current Realized Losses which would otherwise be allocated in
reduction of the Class Principal Balances of one or more Classes of
Certificates of such Pool on such Remittance Date, pro rata, based on the
amount so required by each such Pool; and
(x) TENTH, any excess to the Holders of the Class X Certificates.
Section 6.15 ESTABLISHMENT OF SERVICING ACCOUNTS; COLLECTION OF TAXES,
ASSESSMENTS AND SIMILAR ITEMS.
(a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established
and maintained, one or more Servicing Accounts. The Servicer will deposit and
retain, or cause to be deposited and retained, therein all collections from the
Mortgagors for the payment of taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, or
comparable items as agent of the Mortgagors.
(b) The deposits in the Servicing Accounts shall be held in a Designated
Depository Institution in an account designated as a "Mortgage Loan Servicing
Account," held in trust by the Servicer or a Subservicer acting on its own
behalf and as agent for holders of various pass-through securities and other
interests in mortgage loans sold by it. The amount at any time credited to a
Servicing Account must be fully insured by FDIC, or, to the extent that such
deposits exceed the limits of such insurance, such excess must be (i)
transferred to another fully insured account in another Designated Depository
Institution or (ii) if permitted by applicable law, invested in Permitted
Investments held in trust by the Servicer or a Subservicer. Withdrawals of
amounts from the Servicing Accounts may be made only to effect timely payment of
taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, or comparable items, to reimburse the
related Servicer or Subservicer for any advances made with respect to such
items, to refund to any Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages,
to pay interest, if required, to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing
Accounts, to pay the related Servicer or Subservicer the remainder of any income
on balances in the Servicing Accounts or to clear and terminate the Servicing
Accounts at or any time after the termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE VII
GENERAL SERVICING PROCEDURE
Section 7.01 ASSUMPTION AGREEMENTS.
When a Mortgaged Property has been or is about to be conveyed by the
Mortgagor, the Servicer shall, to the extent it has knowledge of such conveyance
or prospective conveyance, exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of the
related Mortgage Loan under any "due-on-sale" clause contained in the related
Mortgage or Mortgage Note; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not
exercise any such right if the "due-on-sale" clause, in the reasonable belief of
the Servicer, is not enforceable under applicable law or if such enforcement
would materially increase the risk of default or delinquency on, or materially
decrease the security for, such Mortgage Loan. In such event, the Servicer shall
enter into an assumption and modification agreement with the person to whom such
property has been or is about to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person
becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, unless prohibited by applicable law
or the Mortgage, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. The Servicer is also
authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with such person,
pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and such
person is substituted as Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note;
provided, however, that if any such Mortgaged Property shall constitute a part
of either Pool I or Pool II, the Servicer must obtain the prior approval of the
Certificate Insurer. The Servicer shall notify the applicable Co-Trustee (and,
with respect to Pool III Mortgage Loans, the FHA Custodian and, with respect to
Pool I or Pool II Mortgage Loans, the Certificate Insurer), that any such
substitution or assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the
Custodian (or, with respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans, FUNB (who shall
forward it to the Pool III Co-Trustee)) the original of such substitution or
assumption agreement and in the case of Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans, a
duplicate thereof to the Certificate Insurer and the Pool I and Pool II
Co-Trustee, which original shall be added by the Custodian (or, with respect to
the Pool III Mortgage Loans, the Pool III Co-Trustee) to the related Trustee's
Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such
Trustee's Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and
instruments constituting a part thereof. In connection with any assumption or
substitution agreement entered into pursuant to this Section 7.01, the Servicer
shall not change the Mortgage Interest Rate or the Monthly Payment, defer or
forgive the payment of principal or interest, reduce the outstanding principal
amount or extend the final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan. Any fee
collected by the Servicer for consenting to any such conveyance or entering into
an assumption or substitution agreement shall be retained by or paid to the
Servicer as additional servicing compensation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this
Agreement, (i) the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any
other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a
Mortgage Loan by operation of law or any assumption which the Servicer may be
restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever; and (ii) the
Servicer shall not take any action which would adversely affect the coverage of
an FHA Loan for insurance by the FHA under Title I.
Section 7.02 SATISFACTION OF MORTGAGES AND RELEASE OF MORTGAGE FILES.
The Servicer shall not grant a satisfaction or release of a Mortgage
without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured by the
Mortgage or otherwise prejudice any right the Certificateholders may have under
the mortgage instruments, subject to Section 5.01 hereof. The Servicer shall
maintain the Fidelity Bond as provided for in Section 5.09 insuring the Servicer
against any loss it may sustain with respect to any Mortgage Loan not satisfied
in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.
Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the
Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner
customary for such purposes, the Servicer will immediately notify the applicable
Co-Trustee (and, with respect to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans, the
Custodian), by an Officers' Certificate in the form of Exhibit J attached hereto
(which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts
received or to be received in connection with such payment which are required to
be deposited in the applicable Principal and Interest Account pursuant to
Section 5.03 have been or will be so deposited) of a Servicing Officer and shall
request delivery to it of the Trustee's Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such
certification and request, the Custodian (or, with respect to the Pool III
Mortgage Loans, the Pool III Co-Trustee) shall promptly release the related
Trustee's Mortgage File to the Servicer. Expenses incurred in connection with
any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be payable only
from and to the extent of servicing compensation and shall not be chargeable to
the Principal and Interest Account or the Certificate Accounts.
From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of
any Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose, collection under any primary
mortgage guaranty insurance policy, the Custodian (or, with respect to the Pool
III Mortgage Loans, the Pool III Co-Trustee) shall, upon request of the
Servicer and delivery to the Custodian (or, with respect to the Pool III
Mortgage Loans, the Pool III Co-Trustee) of a certification in the form of
Exhibit J attached hereto signed by a Servicing Officer, release the related
Trustee's Mortgage File to the Servicer, and the Custodian (or, with respect to
the Pool III Mortgage Loans, the Pool III Co-Trustee and the FHA Custodian)
shall execute such documents furnished by the Servicer as shall be necessary to
the prosecution of any such proceedings. Such servicing receipt shall obligate
the Servicer to return the Trustee's Mortgage File to the Custodian (or, with
respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans, the Pool III Co-Trustee) when the need
therefor by the Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan has been
liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been
deposited in the applicable Principal and Interest Account and remitted to the
applicable Co-Trustee for deposit in the applicable Certificate Account or the
Trustee's Mortgage File or such document has been delivered to an attorney, or
to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of
initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of
the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Servicer has
delivered to the Custodian (or, with respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans, the
Pool III Co-Trustee) a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the
name and address of the Person to which such Trustee's Mortgage File or such
document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery. Upon
receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer stating that such Mortgage Loan
was liquidated, the servicing receipt shall be released by the Custodian (or,
with respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans, the Pool III Co-Trustee) to the
Servicer.
The applicable Co-Trustee upon the request of the Servicer and receipt of
the applicable documents by the Custodian (or the Pool III Co-Trustee with
respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans) shall execute and deliver to the
Servicer any 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. Together with such documents or
pleadings, the Servicer shall deliver to the applicable Co-Trustee a certificate
of a Servicing Officer requesting that such pleadings or documents be executed
by the applicable Co-Trustee and certifying as to the reason such documents or
pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the
applicable Co-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 or trustee's sale. The applicable Co-Trustee shall, upon receipt of
a written request from a Servicing Officer, execute any document provided to the
applicable Co-Trustee by the Servicer or take any other action requested in such
request, that is, in the opinion of the Servicer as evidenced by such request,
required by any state or other jurisdiction to discharge the lien of a Mortgage
upon the satisfaction thereof and the applicable Co-Trustee will sign and post,
but will not guarantee receipt of, any such documents to the Servicer, or such
other party as the Servicer may direct, within five Business Days of the
applicable Co-Trustee's receipt of such certificate or documents. Such
certificate or documents shall establish to the applicable Co-Trustee's
satisfaction that the related Mortgage Loan has been paid in full by or on
behalf of the Mortgagor and that such payment has been deposited in the
applicable Principal and Interest Account.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, with respect to
the Pool III Mortgage Loans, all requests for release, and certificates of the
Servicer relating to releases of the related Trustee's Mortgage Files shall be
delivered by the Servicer to FUNB, which shall forward such requests to the Pool
III Co-Trustee, and all releases of Pool III Trustee's Mortgage Files shall be
made by delivery of such files by the Pool III Co-Trustee to FUNB, which shall
be responsible for delivering such files to the Servicer or its designee. The
Pool III Co-Trustee shall not be liable for FUNB's failure or delay in
forwarding a request for release to the Pool III Co-Trustee or for FUNB's
failure or delay in delivering a Trustee's Mortgage File to the Servicer or its
designee or returning such file to the Pool III Co-Trustee.

Section 10.02 CO-TRUSTEES TO ACT; APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR.
On and after the time the Servicer or the Claims Administrator receives a
notice of termination pursuant to Section 10.01 or the Co-Trustees receive the
resignation of the Servicer and the Claims Administrator evidenced by an Opinion
of Counsel pursuant to Section 9.04 or the Servicer and the Claims Administrator
are removed as servicer and claims administrator pursuant to this Article X, the
Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee (or, with respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans,
the Pool III Co-Trustee) shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer
in its capacity as servicer and the Claims Administrator in its capacity as
claims administrator under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or
provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and
liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer and the Claims Administrator
by the terms and provisions hereof, provided, however, that the Co-Trustees
shall not be liable for any actions of any servicer or claims administrator
prior to it, and that the Co-Trustees shall not be obligated to make advances or
payments pursuant to Sections 6.03, 6.04, 6.11, 6.12, 5.05, 5.10 or 5.14 but
only to the extent the applicable Co-Trustee, determines reasonably and in good
faith that such advances would not be recoverable, such determination to be
evidenced with respect to each such advance by a certification of a Responsible
Officer of the applicable Co-Trustee. As compensation therefor, the Pool I and
Pool II Co-Trustee (or, with respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans, the Pool
III Co-Trustee) shall be entitled to all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans
which the Servicer and Claims Administrator would have been entitled to receive
from the Principal and Interest Account pursuant to Section 5.04 if the Servicer
had continued to act as servicer and claims administrator hereunder, together
with other servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, late payment
charges, the Servicing Fee, the Contingency Fee or otherwise as provided in
Sections 7.01 and 7.03.
Notwithstanding the above, a Co-Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so
act, or shall, if it is unable to so act or if the Majority Certificateholders
or the Certificate Insurer so request in writing to a Co-Trustee, appoint, or
petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established mortgage
loan servicing institution acceptable to the Certificate Insurer, which
acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld, that has a net worth of not less
than $15,000,000 and which is approved as a servicer by FNMA and FHLMC (and, in
the case of FHA Loans, is a Title I approved lender pursuant to FHA Regulations)
as the successor to the Servicer and the Claims Administrator hereunder in the
assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of
the Servicer and the Claims Administrator hereunder. Any collections received by
the Servicer and the Claims Administrator after removal or resignation shall be
endorsed by it to the applicable Co-Trustee and remitted directly to such
Co-Trustee or, at the direction of a Co-Trustee, to the successor servicer. The
compensation of any successor servicer and claims administrator (including,
without limitation, a Co-Trustee) so appointed shall be the aggregate Servicing
Fees, together with the Contingency Fee and other servicing compensation in the
form of assumption fees, late payment charges or otherwise for the related Pool.
In the event a Co-Trustee is required to solicit bids as provided herein, such
Co-Trustee shall solicit, by public announcement, bids from housing and home
finance institutions, banks and mortgage servicing institutions meeting the
qualifications set forth above. Such public announcement shall specify that the
successor servicer and claims administrator shall be entitled to, with respect
to the Mortgage Loans each would be servicing, the full amount of the aggregate
Servicing Fees and Contingency Fee relating to such Mortgage Loans as servicing
compensation, together with the other servicing compensation in the form of
assumption fees, late payment charges or otherwise. Within thirty days after any
such public announcement, the applicable Co-Trustee shall negotiate and effect
the sale, transfer and assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities
hereunder with respect to the related Pool or Pools to the qualified party
submitting the highest qualifying bid. The applicable Co-Trustee shall deduct
from any sum received by such Co-Trustee from the successor to the Servicer and
Claims Administrator in respect of such sale, transfer and assignment all costs
and expenses of any public announcement and of any sale, transfer and assignment
of the servicing rights and responsibilities hereunder and the amount of any
unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances. After such deductions, the
remainder of such sum shall be paid by the applicable Co-Trustee to the Servicer
and Claims Administrator at the time of such sale, transfer and assignment to
the Servicer's and Claims Administrator's successor. The Co-Trustees and such
successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be
necessary to effectuate any such succession. The Servicer and Claims
Administrator agree to cooperate with the Co-Trustees and any successor servicer
and claims administrator in effecting the termination of the Servicer's and
Claims Administrator's servicing responsibilities and rights hereunder and shall
promptly provide the Co-Trustees or such successor servicer, as applicable, all
documents and records reasonably requested by it to enable it to assume the
Servicer's and Claims Administrator's functions hereunder and shall promptly
also transfer to the applicable Co-Trustee or such successor servicer and claims
administrator, as applicable, all amounts which then have been or should have
been deposited in the Principal and Interest Account or Spread Account by the
Servicer and Claims Administrator or which are thereafter received with respect
to the Mortgage Loans. Neither the Co-Trustees nor any other successor servicer
or claims administrator shall be held liable 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 Servicer and Claims Administrator 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 Servicer and
Claims Administrator hereunder. No appointment of a successor to the Servicer
and Claims Administrator hereunder shall be effective until written notice of
such proposed appointment shall have been provided by the applicable Co-Trustee
to each Certificateholder and the Certificate Insurer and the applicable
Co-Trustee shall have consented thereto. No Co-Trustee shall resign as servicer
until a successor servicer reasonably acceptable to the Certificate Insurer has
been appointed.
Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer and the Claims
Administrator hereunder, the applicable Co-Trustee shall act in such capacity as
hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, such
Co-Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out
of payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided,
however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the
Servicer and Claims Administrator pursuant to Section 7.03 or otherwise as
provided in this Agreement. The Servicer, the Claims Administrator, the
Co-Trustees, any Custodian and such successor shall take such action, consistent
with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.
Section 10.03 WAIVER OF DEFAULTS.
The Certificate Insurer or the Majority Certificateholders may, on behalf
of all Certificateholders, and subject to the consent of the Certificate
Insurer, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, waive any events
permitting removal of the Servicer and the Claims Administrator as servicer
pursuant to this Article X, provided, however, that the Majority
Certificateholders or the Certificate Insurer may not waive a default in making
a required distribution on a Certificate without the consent of the holder of
such Certificate. Upon any waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to
exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been
remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereto except to the
extent expressly so waived.
Section 10.04 [RESERVED].
Section 10.05 CONTROL BY MAJORITY CERTIFICATEHOLDERS.
The Certificate Insurer or the Majority Certificateholders with the consent
of the Certificate Insurer, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, may
direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding relating to the
Trust Fund or the Certificates or for any remedy available to the Co-Trustees
with respect to the Certificates or exercising any trust or power conferred on
the Co-Trustees with respect to the Certificates or the Trust Fund PROVIDED
THAT:
(i) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or
with this Agreement;
(ii) the Co-Trustees shall have been provided with indemnity
satisfactory to them; and
(iii) the Co-Trustees may take any other action deemed proper by the
Co-Trustees which is not inconsistent with such direction; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Co-Trustees need not take any action which it determines
might involve it in liability or may be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders
not so directing.
ARTICLE XI
TERMINATION
Section 11.01 TERMINATION.
Subject to Section 11.03, this Agreement shall terminate upon notice to the
Co-Trustees of either: (a) the latter of the final payment or other liquidation
of the last Mortgage Loan or the disposition of all property acquired upon
foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and the
remittance of all funds due thereunder, or (b) mutual consent of the Servicer,
the Certificate Insurer and all Certificateholders in writing; provided,
however, that in no event shall the Trust established by this Agreement
terminate later than twenty-one years after the death of the last surviving
lineal descendant of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, late Ambassador of the United States to
the Court of St. Xxxxx, alive as of the date hereof.
Subject to Section 11.03, the Servicer may, at its option, and in the
absence of the exercise thereof by the Servicer, the Certificate Insurer may, at
its option, on any date on which the aggregate Principal Balances of the
Mortgage Loans are less than five (5) percent of the aggregate Principal
Balances of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-Off Date (such date, the "Optional
Servicer Termination Date"), purchase on the next succeeding Remittance Date,
all of the Mortgage Loans and any related REO Properties at a price equal to the
sum of (x) 100% of the Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans before the
occurrence of Realized Losses, and any related REO Property, and including the
portion of the principal balance of each 90 Day Delinquent FHA Loan for which
the Certificateholders have not received payment and for which a Claim was
submitted to the FHA (y) accrued but unpaid interest thereon (whether through
payments by the applicable Mortgagor, Monthly Advances or otherwise) at the
weighted average Class AF-1, Class AF-2, Class AF-3, Class AF-4, Class AF-5,
Class AF-6, Class AF-7, Class AF-8 and Class AF-9 Remittance Rates in the case
of the Pool I Mortgage Loans, the Class AV Remittance Rate in the case of the
Pool II Mortgage Loans, and the weighted average Class AH-1, Class AH-2, Class
AH-3, Class AH-4, Class AH-5, Class AH-6, Class MH-1, Class MH-2 and Class BH
Remittance Rates in the case of the Pool III Mortgage Loans, and (z) with
respect to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans, the interest portion of any
unreimbursed Insured Payments made by the Certificate Insurer (the "Termination
Price").
On any Remittance Date on or after the Cross-Over Date when Pool I and/or
Pool II Mortgage Loans with aggregate original Principal Balances that equal or
exceed 25% of the aggregate Principal Balance of the Initial Mortgage Loans as
of the Cut-Off Date have become Liquidated Mortgage Loans, the Certificate
Insurer may determine to purchase and may cause the purchase from the Trust Fund
of all Mortgage Loans and REO Properties at a price equal to the sum of the
Termination Price with respect to the Trust Fund and the outstanding and unpaid
fees and expenses of the Trustee, the Co-Trustee, the Custodian and the
Servicer. In connection with such purchase, the Servicer shall remit to the
applicable Co-Trustee all amounts then on deposit in the applicable Principal
and Interest Account for deposit to the applicable Certificate Account, which
deposit shall be deemed to have occurred immediately preceding such purchase.
In connection with any purchase pursuant to this Section 11.01, the
Certificate Insurer shall provide to the Co-Trustees an opinion of counsel
experienced in federal income tax matters in form and substance satisfactory to
the Co-Trustees to the effect that such purchase constitutes a "Qualified
Liquidation," as such term is defined in the REMIC Provisions.
Notice of any termination, specifying the Remittance Date upon which the
Trust Fund will terminate and the Certificateholders shall surrender their
Certificates to the applicable Co-Trustee for payment of the final distribution
and cancellation shall be given promptly by the Servicer or the Certificate
Insurer by letter to the Certificateholders mailed during the month of such
final distribution before the Determination Date in such month, specifying (i)
the Remittance Date upon which final payment of the Certificates will be made
upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office of the
applicable Co-Trustee therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final
payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Remittance
Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender
of such Certificates at the office of the Trustee therein specified. The
Servicer shall give such notice to the Co-Trustee therein specified. The
Servicer shall give such notice to the Co-Trustees at the time such notice is
given to Certificateholders. The obligations of the Certificate Insurer
hereunder with respect to the Trust Fund shall terminate upon the deposit by the
Servicer or the Certificate Insurer with the Trustee of the Termination Price
with respect to the Trust Fund. Any obligation of the Servicer to pay amounts
due to the Certificate Insurer, the Co-Trustees, the Trust Administrator and the
FHA Custodian shall survive the termination of the Trust Fund.
In the event that all of the Certificateholders shall not surrender their
Certificates for cancellation within six months after the time specified in the
above-mentioned written notice, the Servicer shall give a second written notice
to such remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for
cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto and shall
at the expense of the Trust Fund cause to be published once, in the eastern
edition of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL notice that such money remains unclaimed. If
within six months after the second notice all of such Certificates shall not
have been surrendered for cancellation, the Co-Trustees 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 and other assets which remain
subject hereto. If within the period then specified in the escheat laws of the
State of New York after the second notice all the Certificates shall not have
been surrendered for cancellation, the Class R Certificateholders shall be
entitled to all unclaimed funds and other assets which remain subject hereto and
the Co-Trustees upon transfer of such funds shall be discharged of any
responsibility for such funds and the Certificateholders shall look to the Class
R Certificateholders for payment.
Section 11.02. TERMINATION UPON LOSS OF REMIC STATUS.
(a) Following a final determination by the Internal Revenue Service, or by
a court of competent jurisdiction, in either case, from which no appeal is taken
within the permitted time for such appeal, or if any appeal is taken, following
a final determination of such appeal from which no further appeal can be taken,
to the effect that either of REMIC I or REMIC II does not and will no longer
qualify as a REMIC pursuant to Section 860D of the Code (the "Final
Determination"), at any time on or after the date which is 30 calendar days
following such Final Determination, (i) the Majority Certificateholders may
direct the Co-Trustees on behalf of REMIC I and REMIC II to adopt a "plan of
complete liquidation" (within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(4) of the Code) and
(ii) the Certificate Insurer may notify the Co-Trustees of the Certificate
Insurer's determination to purchase from REMIC II all Mortgage Loans and all
property theretofore acquired by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or
otherwise in respect of any Mortgage Loan then remaining in REMIC II at a price
equal to the Termination Price for the REMIC II. Upon receipt of such direction
by the Majority Certificateholders or of such notice from the Certificate
Insurer, the Co-Trustees shall notify the Class R Certificateholders of such
election to liquidate or such determination to purchase, as the case may be (the
"Termination Notice"). The Holders of a majority of the Percentage Interest of
the Class R Certificates then outstanding may, within 60 days from the date of
receipt of the Termination Notice (the "Purchase Option Period"), at their
option, purchase from REMIC II all Mortgage Loans and all property theretofore
acquired by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise in respect of
any Mortgage Loan then remaining in REMIC II at a purchase price equal to the
Termination Price for REMIC II.
(b) If, during the Purchase Option Period, the Class R Certificateholders
have not exercised the option described in the immediately preceding paragraph,
then upon the expiration of the Purchase Option Period (i) in the event that the
Majority Certificateholders have given the Co-Trustees the direction described
in clause (a)(i) above, the Co-Trustees shall sell the Mortgage Loans and
distribute the proceeds of the liquidation of REMIC II in accordance with the
plan of complete liquidation, such that, if so directed, the liquidation of
REMIC II, the distribution of the proceeds of the liquidation and the
termination of this Agreement occur no later than the close of the 60th day, or
such later day as the Class A, Class M and Class B Certificateholders shall
permit or direct in writing, after the expiration of the Purchase Option Period
and (ii) in the event that the Certificate Insurer has given the Co-Trustees
notice of the Certificate Insurer's determination to purchase from REMIC II the
assets described in clause (a)(ii) preceding, the Certificate Insurer shall so
purchase such assets from REMIC II within 60 days after the expiration of the
Purchase Option Period. In connection with such purchase, the Servicer shall
remit to the Co-Trustees all amounts then on deposit in the Principal and
Interest Account for deposit to the applicable Certificate Account, which
deposit shall be deemed to have occurred immediately preceding such purchase.
(c) Following a Final Determination, the Holders of a majority of the
Percentage Interest of the Class R Certificates then outstanding may, at their
option and upon delivery to the Trustee and the Certificate Insurer of an
opinion of nationally recognized tax counsel selected by the Holders of the
Class R Certificates which opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and
substance to the Majority Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer to the
effect that the effect of the Final Determination is to increase substantially
the probability that the gross income of REMIC II will be subject to federal
taxation, purchase from REMIC II all Mortgage Loans and all property theretofore
acquired by foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise in respect of
any Mortgage Loan then remaining in REMIC II at a purchase price equal to the
Termination Price for REMIC II. In connection with such purchase, the Servicer
shall remit to the Co-Trustees all amounts then on deposit in the Principal and
Interest Account for deposit to the applicable Certificate Account, which
deposit shall be deemed to have occurred immediately preceding such purchase.
The foregoing opinion shall be deemed satisfactory unless the Majority
Certificateholders give the Holders of a majority of the Percentage Interest of
the Class R Certificates notice that such opinion is not satisfactory within
thirty days after receipt of such opinion.
Section 11.03 ADDITIONAL TERMINATION REQUIREMENTS.
(a) In the event the Servicer or the Certificate Insurer exercises its
purchase option as provided in Section 11.01 or 11.02, each of REMIC I and REMIC
II shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements,
unless the Co-Trustees have been furnished with an Opinion of Counsel to the
effect that the failure of the Trust Fund to comply with the requirements of
this Section 11.03 will not (i) result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited
transactions" on REMIC I or REMIC II as defined in Section 860F of the Code, or
(ii) cause REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that
any Certificates are outstanding:
(i) Within 90 days prior to the final Remittance Date, the holders of
the Class R-1 and Class R-2 Certificates shall adopt a plan of complete
liquidation of REMIC I and REMIC II, respectively, meeting the requirements
of a "Qualified Liquidation" under Section 860F of the Code and any
regulations thereunder;
(ii) At or after the time of adoption of such a plan of complete
liquidation and at or prior to the final Remittance Date, the Co-Trustees
shall sell for cash all of the assets of REMIC I and REMIC II to the
Servicer, the Certificate Insurer or the Certificate Insurer's designee;
and
(iii) At the time of the making of the final payment on the
Certificates, the Co-Trustees shall (x) deposit into and withdraw from the
applicable Certificate Accounts the amount of such final payment and shall
distribute or credit, or cause to be distributed or credited, to the
Certificateholders of each Class, the related Class Principal Balance, plus
30 days' interest thereon (or, with respect to the Adjustable Rate
Certificates, interest on the actual number of days since the last
Remittance Date up to but not including the upcoming Remittance Date) at
the related Class Remittance Rate, and (y) to the Class R-1
Certificateholders, distribute all cash on hand after such payment and
after payment of all amounts due and owing to the Co-Trustees, the Trust
Administrator and the FHA Custodian hereunder to the respective
Certificateholders, and REMIC I and REMIC II shall terminate at such time.
(b) By their acceptance of the Class R Certificates the holders thereof
hereby (i) agree to adopt such a plan of complete liquidation upon the written
request of the Servicer or Certificate Insurer and to take such other action in
connection therewith as may be reasonably requested by the Servicer and (ii)
appoint the Servicer as their attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution,
for purposes of adopting such a plan of complete liquidation.
Section 11.04 [Reserved]
Section 11.05 ACCOUNTING UPON TERMINATION OF SERVICER AND CLAIMS
ADMINISTRATOR.
Upon termination of the Servicer and Claims Administrator under Article X
hereof, the Servicer and Claims Administrator shall:
(a) deliver to its successor or, if none shall yet have been appointed, to
the applicable Co-Trustee the funds in any Principal and Interest Account;
(b) deliver to its successor or, if none shall yet have been appointed, to
the Custodian (or, with respect to the Pool III Mortgage Loans, the Pool III
Co-Trustee) all Mortgage Files and related documents and statements held by it
hereunder and a Mortgage Loan portfolio computer tape;
(c) deliver to its successor or, if none shall yet have been appointed, to
the applicable Co-Trustee and, upon request, to the Certificateholders a full
accounting of all funds, including a statement showing the Monthly Payments

or charges with respect to the Mortgage Loans; and
(d) execute and deliver such instruments and perform all acts reasonably
requested in order to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of servicing of
the Mortgage Loans and administering of the Claims to their successor and to
more fully and definitively vest in such successor all rights, powers, duties,
responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Servicer and the Claims
Administrator under this Agreement.
ARTICLE XII
THE CO-TRUSTEES
Section 12.01 DUTIES OF CO-TRUSTEES.
Each Co-Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default 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. If an Event of Default has occurred and has not been cured or waived,
each Co-Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by
this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a
prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
such person's own affairs.
Each Co-Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements,
opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to such
Co-Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they
conform to the requirements of this Agreement, provided, however that the
Co-Trustees shall not be responsible for the accuracy or content of any
resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other
instrument furnished by the Servicer, the Representative, the Claims
Administrator or any Originator hereunder. If any such instrument is found not
to conform to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner, the
applicable Co-Trustee shall take action as it deems appropriate to have the
instrument corrected, and if the instrument is not corrected to such
Co-Trustee's satisfaction, the Co-Trustee will provide notice thereof to the
Certificateholders.
The Pool III Co-Trustee represents and warrants that the Pool III
Co-Trustee's computer and other systems used in performing its duties and
obligations under this Agreement will be modified and maintained to operate in a
manner such that at all times, including on and after January 1, 2000, (1) the
Pool III Co-Trustee can perform such duties and obligations in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement and (2) the Pool III Co-Trustee can operate its
business in the same manner as it is operating on the date hereof.
The Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee hereby warrants that it will use
commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the computer software and
hardware (as used in this subsection, the "Systems") that are owned by the Pool
I and Pool II Co-Trustee and used to provide the services to be provided by the
Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee under this Agreement (as used in this subsection
"Services") are 2000 Compliant or will be made 2000 Compliant before December
31, 1999. With respect to software that the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee
licenses from third parties and uses in providing the Services ("Third Party
Software"), the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee warrants that it has used or will
use commercially reasonable efforts to test the same by September 30, 1999 to
certify, in accordance with the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee's standard
practices, that the Third Party Software is 2000 Compliant. If the Pool I and
Pool II Co-Trustee cannot certify any Third Party Software as 2000 Compliant,
the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee will use commercially reasonable efforts to
replace such Third Party Software that is warranted or certified by its vendor
as 2000 Compliant, if such replacement is available, compatible with the Pool I
and Pool II Co-Trustee's Systems and deemed by the Pool I and Pool II
Co-Trustee as appropriate under the circumstances. In the event that the Pool I
and Pool II Co-Trustee uses third party service providers to provide the
Services or any portion thereof ("Third Party Services"), the Pool I and Pool II
Co-Trustee warrants that it has in place a program under which it will use
commercially reasonable efforts to contact such service providers and obtain
from them assurances that the Systems that they use in providing Third Party
Services are 2000 Compliant. As used herein, the term "2000 Compliant" means
that the Systems will function without material error caused by the introduction
of dates falling on or after January 1, 2000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee
cannot and does not warrant that the Systems, Third Party Software or Third
Party Services will continue to interface with the hardware, firmware, software
(including operating systems), records or data used by the Representative,
Servicer Claims Administrator, Trust Administrator, Custodian or third parties,
nor does the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee make any warranties hereunder with
respect to any public utility, communications service provider, securities or
commodities exchange, or funds transfer network.
No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve a Co-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, and after the
curing of all such Events of Default which may have occurred, the duties
and obligations of a Co-Trustees shall be determined solely by the express
provisions of this Agreement, the Co-Trustees 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 Co-Trustees and, in the absence of bad
faith on the part of a Co-Trustee, such Co-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 such
Co-Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement;
(ii) A Co-Trustee shall not be personally liable for an error of
judgment made in good faith by officers of such Co-Trustee, unless it shall
be proved that such Co-Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent
facts;
(iii) A Co-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 the Certificate Insurer or the Class A,
Class M and Class B Certificateholders, relating to the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to such
Co-Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon such
Co-Trustee, under this Agreement;
(iv) In the absence of actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of a
Co-Trustee of an Event of Default other than an Event of Nonpayment, a
Co-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 such Co-Trustee shall be specifically notified in writing by the
Servicer or the Certificate Insurer or any of the Certificateholders. In
the absence of actual knowledge or receipt of such notice, a Co-Trustee may
conclusively assume that there is no default or Event of Default; and
(v) A Co-Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds
or otherwise incur financial liability for the performance of any of its
duties hereunder or the exercise of any of its rights or powers if there is
reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or
adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured
to it.
Section 12.02 CERTAIN MATTERS AFFECTING THE Co-Trustees.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 12.01:
(i) A Co-Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or
refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officers' 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;
(ii) A Co-Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and 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 opinion of counsel;
(iii) A Co-Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to institute, conduct or
defend by litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order
or direction of the Certificate Insurer or any of the Certificateholders,
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless such
Certificateholders or the Certificate Insurer, as applicable, shall have
offered to such Co-Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the
costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby;
nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve such Co-Trustee of the
obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (which has not been
cured), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Agreement, and to 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;
(iv) A Co-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;
(v) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder and after
the curing of all Events of Default which may have occurred, a Co-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, approval, bond or other paper or
document, unless requested in writing to do so by the Certificate Insurer,
Holders of Class A, Class M and Class B Certificates evidencing Percentage
Interests aggregating not less than 25% of the Class Principal Balances of
all Class A, Class M and Class B Certificates; provided, however, that if
the payment within a reasonable time to such Trustee of the costs, expenses
or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such
investigation is, in the opinion of such Co-Trustee, not reasonably assured
to such Co-Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this
Agreement, such Co-Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such
expense or liability as a condition to taking any such action. The
reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by the Servicer
or, if paid by a Co-Trustee, shall be repaid by the Servicer upon demand
from the Servicer's own funds;
(vi) The right of a Co-Trustee to perform any discretionary act
enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty, and such
Co-Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its negligence or willful
misconduct in the performance of such act;
(vii) A Co-Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in
respect of the execution of the trust created hereby or the powers granted
hereunder; and
(viii) A Co-Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder
or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or
attorneys.
(ix) The Co-Trustees shall have no liability or responsibility in
connection with or arising out of the appointment of the Custodian or the
FHA Custodian or any acts or omissions on the part of the other Co-Trustee,
the Custodian or the FHA Custodian.
(b) Following the Startup Day, except for deposits, if any, into the Spread
Account pursuant to Section 6.05, the Co-Trustees shall not knowingly accept any
contribution of assets to the Trust Fund, unless the Co-Trustee shall have
received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the inclusion of such assets
in the Trust Fund will not cause the Trust Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC at
any time that any Certificates are outstanding or subject the Trust Fund to any
tax under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal, New
York State or New York City law or ordinances.
Section 12.03 CO-TRUSTEE NOT LIABLE FOR CERTIFICATES OR MORTGAGE LOANS.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the
certificate of authentication on the Certificates) shall be taken as the
statements of the Servicer, and the Co-Trustees assume no responsibility for
their correctness. The Co-Trustee make no representations as to the validity or
sufficiency of this Agreement or of the Certificates or of any Mortgage Loan or
related document. The Co-Trustees shall not be accountable for the use or
application by the Servicer of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of
such Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the
Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the
Principal and Interest Account by the Servicer. The Co-Trustees shall not be
responsible for the legality or validity of the Agreement or the validity,
priority, perfection or sufficiency of the security for the Certificates issued
or intended to be issued hereunder.
Section 12.04 CO-TRUSTEES MAY OWN CERTIFICATES.
A Co-Trustee 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 a
Co-Trustee, and may otherwise deal with the parties hereto.
Section 12.05 REPRESENTATIVE TO PAY CO-TRUSTEES', TRUST ADMINISTRATOR'S AND
FHA CUSTODIAN'S FEES AND EXPENSES.
The Representative covenants and agrees to pay to the Co-Trustees, the
Trust Administrator, the FHA Custodian and the Custodian from time to time
compensation for their services in accordance with separate agreements or fee
schedules (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the
compensation of a trustee of an express trust). The Representative will pay or
reimburse the Co-Trustees, the Trust Administrator, the FHA Custodian and the
Custodian upon request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances
incurred or made 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, provided
that the Co-Trustees, the Trust Administrator and the FHA Custodian shall have
no lien on the Trust Fund, other than the Expense Accounts, for the payment of
its fees and expenses. To the extent that actual fees and expenses of the
Co-Trustees, the Trust Administrator or the FHA Custodian exceed the amount
available for payment thereof on deposit in the Expense Accounts as of the date
such fees and expenses are due and payable, the Representative shall reimburse
the respective party for such shortfall out of its own funds without
reimbursement therefor, except as provided in Section 6.03. The Co-Trustees, the
Trust Administrator, the FHA Custodian and the Custodian and any director,
officer, employee or agent of the Co-Trustees, the Trust Administrator and the
FHA Custodian shall be indemnified by the Representative and held harmless
against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal
action relating to this Agreement, or the Certificates, other than any loss,
liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or thereunder or by reason of
reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder or thereunder. The
obligations of the Representative under this Section 12.05 shall survive payment
of the Certificates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Representative covenants
and agrees to pay to the Pool III Co-Trustee from time to time compensation for
its services as custodian of the Pool III Trustee's Mortgage Files in accordance
with a separate agreement or fee schedule.
Section 12.06 ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS FOR CO-TRUSTEES.
Each Co-Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a banking association
organized and doing business under the laws of any state or the United States of
America, (i) authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, (ii)
having a combined capital and surplus of at least $30,000,000, (iii) except in
the case of the initial Co-Trustees, whose unsecured and unguaranteed long-term
debt obligations shall be rated at least "A" by S&P, or such other rating as is
acceptable to the Certificate Insurer, (iv) subject to supervision or
examination by federal or state authority, and (v) is reasonably acceptable to
the Certificate Insurer. If such banking 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 its combined capital and surplus shall be deemed to be as set forth in
its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time a
Co-Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section, such Co-Trustee shall resign, upon the request of the Certificate
Insurer or the Majority Certificateholders, in the manner and with the effect
specified in Section 12.07.
Section 12.07 RESIGNATION AND REMOVAL OF THE Co-Trustees.
A Co-Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts
hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Servicer, the Trust
Administrator, the Certificate Insurer, the other Co-Trustee and to all
Certificateholders. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Trust
Administrator shall with the consent of the Certificate Insurer promptly appoint
a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, which instrument shall
be delivered to the resigning Co-Trustee and to the successor trustee. A copy of
such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders by the Trust
Administrator. Unless a successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have
accepted appointment within 60 days after the giving of such notice of
resignation, the resigning Co-Trustee may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee. If the resigning
Co-Trustee fails to petition an appropriate court, the Certificate Insurer may,
after such 60 day period, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor trustee.
If at any time the Co-Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with
the provisions of Section 12.06 and shall fail to resign after written request
therefor by the Trust Administrator, or if at any time the Co-Trustee shall
become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a
receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public
officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or
affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the
Trust Administrator may remove such Co-Trustee and appoint, subject to the
approval of the Certificate Insurer, a successor trustee by written instrument,
in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and
to the successor trustee. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the
Certificateholders by the Trust Administrator.
The Majority Certificateholders with the consent of the Certificate
Insurer, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, or the Certificate
Insurer may at any time remove a Co-Trustee and appoint a successor trustee 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 Trust Administrator, one complete set to the
Co-Trustee so removed and one complete set to the successor trustee so
appointed.
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor
trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall become effective
upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section
12.08.
Section 12.08 SUCCESSOR CO-TRUSTEES.
Any successor co-trustee appointed as provided in Section 12.07 shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Trust Administrator and to its
predecessor co-trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and
thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor co-trustee shall become
effective and such successor co-trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and
obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if originally
named as co-trustee herein. The predecessor co-trustee shall deliver to the
successor co-trustee all Mortgage Files and related documents and statements
held by it hereunder, and the Servicer and the predecessor co-trustee 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
co-trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.
No successor co-trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor co-trustee shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 12.06.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor co-trustee as provided in
this Section, the Trust Administrator shall mail notice of the succession of
such co-trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as
shown in the Certificate Register. If the Trust Administrator fails to mail such
notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor
co-trustee, the successor co-trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the
expense of the Trust Administrator.
Section 12.09 MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION OF CO-TRUSTEES.
Any Person into which a Co-Trustee may be merged or converted or with which
it may be consolidated or any corporation or national banking association
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Co-Trustee
shall be a party, or any corporation or national banking association succeeding
to the business of the trustee, shall be the successor of such Co-Trustee
hereunder, provided such corporation or national banking association shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 12.06, 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.
Section 12.10 APPOINTMENT OF CO-TRUSTEE OR SEPARATE TRUSTEE.
Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for the purpose
of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the
Trust Fund or property securing the same may at the time be located, the
Servicer and a Co-Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute
and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by such
Co-Trustee, and the Certificate Insurer pursuant to the procedure set forth
below, to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the applicable
Co-Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the
Trust Fund, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title
to the Trust Fund, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of
this Section 12.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the
Servicer and the applicable Co-Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If
the Servicer shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the
receipt by it of a request so to do, or in case an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, a Co-Trustee alone shall have the power to make such
appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to
meet the terms of eligibility as a successor co-trustee under Section 12.06
hereunder and no notice to Holders of Certificates of the appointment of
co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under Section 12.08
hereof. Any co-trustee with respect to the FHA Loans must at all times have a
valid FHA Contract of Insurance. The applicable Co-Trustee shall notify the
Certificate Insurer prior to the appointment of any co-trustee(s) or separate
trustee(s) and the Certificate Insurer shall have four Business Days from its
receipt of such notice to notify such Co-Trustee whether it, in its reasonable
judgment, disapproves of such co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s). If the
Certificate Insurer does not notify the applicable Co-Trustee within such time
frame, it will be deemed to have approved such co-trustee(s) or separate
trustee(s). If the Certificate Insurer notifies such Co-Trustee within such time
frame that it, in its reasonable judgment, disapproves of such co-trustee(s) or
separate trustee(s) (which notice shall be accompanied by the name(s) of the
Certificate Insurer's alternative proposed co-trustee(s) or separate
trustee(s)), such appointments shall not be effective and the applicable
Co-Trustee shall have no liability to the Certificateholders in respect of its
failure to appoint such co-trustee or separate trustee.
In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee pursuant
to this Section 12.10, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or
imposed upon the trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or
performed by the applicable Co-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 Co-Trustee hereunder or
as successor to the Servicer hereunder), the Co-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 Fund or any
portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by
such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the applicable
Co-Trustee.
Any notice, request or other writing given to a Co-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 or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions
of this Article XII. 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 Co-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
applicable Co-Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the applicable
Co-Trustee.
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute the
applicable Co-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. The applicable
Co-Trustee shall not be responsible for any action or inaction of any such
separate trustee or co-trustee. 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
applicable Co-Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment
of a new or successor trustee.
Section 12.11 AUTHENTICATING AGENT.
Upon the request of the Trust Administrator, each Co-Trustee shall appoint
an Authenticating Agent, with power to act on the applicable Co-Trustee's behalf
and subject to its direction in the authentication and delivery of the
Certificates in connection with transfers and exchanges under Section 4.02, as
fully to all intents and purposes as though the Authenticating Agent had been
expressly authorized by that Section to authenticate and deliver Certificates.
For all purposes of this Agreement, the authentication and delivery of
Certificates by the Authenticating Agent pursuant to this Section shall be
deemed to be the authentication and delivery of Certificates by the applicable
Co-Trustee. Such Authenticating Agent shall at all times be a Person meeting the
requirements for a Co-Trustee set forth in Section 12.06, other than Section
12.06(iv).
Any corporation or national banking association into which any
Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any corporation or national banking association resulting from
any merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall
be a party, or any corporation or national banking association succeeding to the
corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of
the Authenticating Agent hereunder, if such successor corporation or national
banking association is otherwise eligible under this Section, without the
execution or filing of any further act on the part of the parties hereto or the
Authenticating Agent or such successor corporation.
Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving notice of
resignation to the applicable Co-Trustee and the Trust Administrator. A
Co-Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent
appointed by it by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating
Agent and the Servicer. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such
a termination, or in case at any time any Authenticating Agent shall cease to be
eligible under this Section, the applicable Co-Trustee shall promptly appoint a
successor Authenticating Agent and shall give written notice of such appointment
to all Certificateholders as their names and addresses appear on the Certificate
Register. The Servicer agrees to pay to the Authenticating Agent from time to
time reasonable compensation for its services. The provisions of Sections 4.04
and 12.03 shall be applicable to any Authenticating Agent.
Section 12.12 TAX RETURNS AND REPORTS.
Each Co-Trustee, upon request, will furnish the Trust Administrator with
all such information within such Co-Trustee's possession as may be reasonably
required in connection with the Trust Administrator's preparation of all Tax
Returns of REMIC I and REMIC II and, upon request within five (5) Business Days
after its receipt thereof, shall (i) sign on behalf of REMIC I and REMIC II any
Tax Return that a Co-Trustee is required to sign pursuant to applicable federal,
state or local tax laws, and (ii) cause such Tax Return to have been returned to
the Trust Administrator for filing.
For Federal income tax purposes, the taxable year of the Trust Fund shall
be a calendar year and the Trust Administrator shall maintain or cause the
maintenance of the books of REMIC I and REMIC II on the accrual method of
accounting.
The Trust Administrator shall prepare and file or cause to be filed with
the Internal Revenue Service Federal tax information returns with respect to
REMIC I and REMIC II and the Certificates containing such information and at the
times and in the manner as may be required by the Code or applicable Treasury
regulations, and shall furnish to each Holder of Certificates at any time during
the calendar year for which such returns or reports are made such statements or
information at the times and in the manner as may be required thereby. In
connection with the foregoing, the Trust Administrator shall provide the name,
address and telephone number of the person who can be contacted to obtain
information required to be reported to the holders of regular interests in REMIC
I and REMIC II (the "REMIC Reporting Agent") as required by IRS Form 8811. The
Trust Administrator shall indicate the election to treat each of REMIC I and
REMIC II as a REMIC (which election shall apply to the taxable period ending
December 31, 1998 and each calendar year thereafter) in such manner as the Code
or applicable Treasury regulations may prescribe. The applicable Co-Trustee
shall sign all tax information returns provided to it by the Trust Administrator
to be filed pursuant to this Section and any other returns as may be required by
the Code, and in doing so shall rely entirely upon, and shall have no liability
for information provided by, or calculations provided by, the Trust
Administrator. The Trust Administrator is hereby designated as the Tax Matters
Person (within the meaning of Section 1.860F-4(d) of the Regulations) for each
of REMIC I and REMIC II. Any Holder of a Class R Certificate will by acceptance
thereof so appoint the Trust Administrator as agent and attorney-in-fact for the
purpose of acting as Tax Matters Person for the related REMIC. In the event that
the Code or applicable Treasury Regulations prohibit a Co-Trustee from signing
tax or information returns or other statements, or the Trust Administrator from
acting as Tax Matters Person (as an agent or otherwise), such Co-Trustee or the
Trust Administrator shall take whatever action that in its sole good faith
judgment is necessary for the proper filing of such information returns or for
the provision of a tax matters person, including designation of the Holder of a
Class R Certificate to sign such returns or act as tax matters person. Each
Holder of a Class R Certificate shall be bound by this Section.
The Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee shall provide upon request such
information as required in Section 860D(a)(6)(B) of the Code to the Internal
Revenue Service and any Person purporting to transfer a Class R Certificate.
Section 12.13 APPOINTMENT OF CUSTODIANS.
The Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee may (or, with respect to the Pool III
Mortgage Loans, the Pool III Co-Trustee may), with the consent of the Trust
Administrator, appoint one or more Custodians to hold all or a portion of the
Trustee's Mortgage Files for the related Pool as agent for such Co-Trustee by
(except with respect to the initial Custodian for the Pool I and Pool II
Mortgage Loans) entering into a Custodial Agreement. Subject to this Article
XII, each Co-Trustee agrees to comply with the terms of each such Custodial
Agreement to which it is a party and to enforce the terms and provisions thereof
against the Custodian for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the
Certificate Insurer. Each Custodian (other than First Union National Bank) shall
be a depository institution subject to supervision by federal or state
authority, shall be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which it
holds any Mortgage File.
The Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee and the Trust Administrator hereby
appoint First Union National Bank, Corporate Trust Department, as Custodian with
respect to the Trustee's Mortgage Files relating to all Pool I and II Mortgage
Loans that constitute, or may in the future constitute, part of the Trust Fund.
The Custodian shall be responsible hereunder solely for the express duties and
functions specified for it herein with respect to the custody, review and
confirmation, safekeeping, substitution and release of the Trustee's Mortgage
Files relating to the Pool I and Pool II Mortgage Loans.
The Custodian shall be entitled to rely and act upon advice of counsel with
respect to its performance hereunder as Custodian and shall be without liability
for any action reasonably taken in good faith pursuant to such advice, provided
that such action is not in violation of applicable Federal or State law. The
Custodian shall have no duties or obligations other than those specifically set
forth herein, and no further duties or obligations shall arise by implication or
otherwise. The Custodian shall have no responsibility or duty with respect to
the Trustee's Mortgage Files that it has relinquished from its possession
pursuant to the terms hereof during the period of time that the Custodian is not
in possession of such Trustee's Mortgage Files. The Custodian agrees to use its
best judgment and good faith in the performance of such obligations and duties
and shall incur no liability for its acts or omissions hereunder, except as may
result from its negligence or willful misconduct. No provision of this Agreement
shall require the Custodian to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur
financial liability in the performance of its duties hereunder if it shall have
reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity is not reasonably assured to it.
Section 12.14. PROTECTION OF TRUST FUND.
(a) Each Co-Trustee will hold the related portion of the Trust Fund in
trust for the benefit of the Holders and the Certificate Insurer and, upon
request of the Certificate Insurer, or, with the consent of the Certificate
Insurer, at the request of the Representative, will from time to time execute
and deliver all such supplements and amendments hereto pursuant to Section 13.02
hereof and all instruments of further assurance and other instruments, and will
take such other action upon such request as it deems reasonably necessary or
advisable, to:
(i) more effectively hold in trust all or any portion of the Trust
Fund;
(ii) perfect, publish notice of, or protect the validity of any grant
made or to be made by this Agreement;
(iii) enforce any of the Mortgage Loans; or
(iv) preserve and defend title to the Trust Fund and the rights of the
applicable Co-Trustee, and the ownership interests of the Owners
represented thereby, in the Trust Fund against the claims of all Persons
and parties.
Each Co-Trustee shall send copies of any request received from the
Certificate Insurer or the Representative to take any action pursuant to this
Section 12.14 to the others.
(b) Subject to Article X hereof, each Co-Trustee shall have the power to
enforce, and shall enforce the obligations of the other parties to this
Agreement and, in the case of the Pool I and Pool II Co-Trustee, of the
Certificate Insurer, by action, suit or proceeding at law or equity, and shall
also have the power to enjoin, by action or suit in equity, any acts or
occurrences which may be unlawful or in violation of the rights of the Holders;
provided, however, that nothing in this Section 12.14 shall require any action
by a Co-Trustee unless such Trustee shall first (i) have been furnished
indemnity satisfactory to it and (ii) when required by this Agreement, have been
requested to take such action by the Majority Certificateholders, the
Certificate Insurer or the Trust Administrator in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement.
(c) Each Co-Trustee shall execute any instrument required pursuant to this
Section so long as such instrument does not conflict with this Agreement or with
such Co-Trustee's fiduciary duties.
Section 12.15. CALCULATION OF LIBOR.
(a) On each Interest Determination Date, the Trust Administrator will
determine LIBOR based on the rate for one-month U.S. dollar deposits (the "One
Month Index Maturity") which appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m.,
London time, on such date in determining the Class AV Remittance Rate for the
Remittance Date in the following month. If such LIBOR rate does not appear on
Telerate Page 3750, the LIBOR rate for that day will be determined on the basis
of the rates at which deposits in United States dollars, having the One-Month
Index Maturity and in a principal amount of not less than U.S. $1,000,000, are
offered at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that day to prime banks in
the London interbank market by the Reference Banks. The Trust Administrator will
request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a
quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, the rate
for that day will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than two
quotations are provided, the rate for that day will be the arithmetic mean of
the rates quoted by major banks in New York City, selected by the Trust
Administrator, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that day for
loans in United States dollars to leading European banks having a One-Month
Index Maturity and in a principal amount equal to an amount of not less than
U.S. $1,000,000; provided that if the banks selected as aforesaid are not
quoting as mentioned in this sentence, LIBOR in effect for the applicable
Interest Period will be LIBOR in effect for the previous Interest Period.
Neither the Representative, Servicer nor the Co-Trustees shall have any
liability or responsibility to any Person for the selection of any Reference
Bank for the purpose of determining LIBOR. In determining LIBOR and the Class AV
Remittance Rates the Trust Administrator may conclusively rely and shall be
protected in relying upon the rates appearing on Telerate Page 3750 or the
offered quotations (whether written, oral or on Telerate Page 3750) from
Reference Banks, as appropriate, in effect from time to time. Neither of the
Representative, the Servicer, the Certificate Insurer nor the Co-Trustees shall
have liability or responsibility to any Person for (i) the Trust Administrator's
selection of Reference Banks for purposes of determining LIBOR or (ii) the Trust
Administrator's or the Servicer's inability, as applicable, following a
good-faith reasonable effort, to obtain such quotations from Reference Banks or
such New York City banks or to determine such arithmetic mean, all as provided
for in this Section 12.15.
The establishment of LIBOR and the Class AV Remittance Rate by the Trust
Administrator shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final, conclusive and
binding upon each Holder of a Certificate, the Representative and the Servicer.
The Trust Administrator is not responsible for determining (or for the
failure of the Servicer to determine) the Net Funds Cap.
ARTICLE XIII
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Section 13.01 ACTS OF CERTIFICATEHOLDERS.
Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, whenever
Certificateholder action, consent or approval is required under this Agreement,

with any changes in the Code, or to make any other provisions with respect to
matters or questions arising under this Agreement which shall not be
inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, any Custodial Agreement or
the Insurance Agreement; provided, however, that such action shall not, as
evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Co-Trustees, adversely
affect the interests of any Certificateholder in any material respect or any
other party and further provided that no such amendment shall reduce in any
manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on Mortgage

the majority of the Percentage Interest in each of the Class X, Class R-1 and
Class R-2 Certificates for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing
in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of
modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders; provided, however, that no
such amendment shall be made unless the Co-Trustees receive an Opinion of
Counsel, at the expense of the party requesting the change, that such change
will not adversely affect the status of either REMIC I or REMIC II as a REMIC or
cause a tax to be imposed on REMIC I or REMIC II, and provided further, that no
such amendment shall reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of,
any amounts which are required to be distributed on any Certificate without the
consent of the Holder of such Certificate or reduce the percentage for each

the consent of the Holders of 100% of each Class of Certificates affected

terms of this Agreement.

public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by the
Servicer at the Certificateholders' expense on direction of the Majority

the Mortgage Loans.

Registered Holder
The registered Holder named above is the registered Holder of a
fractional interest in a trust fund (the "Trust Fund"), the trust estate of
which consists primarily of three sub-trusts, including one pool ("Pool I") of
one- to four-family ("single family"), residential first and second mortgage
loans, substantially all having fixed rates, (the "Pool I Home Equity Loans"),
one pool ("Pool II") of single family residential first mortgage loans,
substantially all having adjustable rates, (the "Pool II Home Equity Loans"),
and one pool ("Pool III") of primarily fixed rate single family residential
first, second and more junior home improvement mortgage loans (the "Pool III
Home Improvement Loans"), certain of which loans (the "FHA Loans") are partially
insured by the Federal Housing Administration under Title I of the National
Housing Act of 1934, and certain other related assets. The Certificates are
issued pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of July 31, 1998
(the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement"), among The Money Store Inc. (the
"Representative," "Servicer" and "Claims Administrator"), certain subsidiaries
of the Representative (the "Originators") and The Bank of New York, as
co-trustee, and Norwest Bank Minnesota, National Association, as co-trustee
(each a "Co-Trustee" and collectively the "Co-Trustees").
The Holder hereof is entitled to principal payments on each
Remittance Date, as hereinafter described, which will fully amortize such
Original Principal Amount over the period from the date of initial delivery
hereof to the final Remittance Date of the Class of Certificates represented by
this Certificate. Therefore, the actual outstanding principal amount of this
Certificate may, on any date subsequent to the first Remittance Date be less
than the Original Principal Amount set forth above.
THIS CERTIFICATE IS A PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE ONLY AND,
NOTWITHSTANDING REFERENCES HEREIN TO PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST, NO DEBT OF ANY
PERSON IS REPRESENTED HEREBY.
NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE UNDERLYING MORTGAGE LOANS,
EXCEPT THE FHA LOANS, ARE INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE
CORPORATION, THE GOVERNMENT NATIONAL MORTGAGE ASSOCIATION OR ANY OTHER
GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY.
This Certificate is one of a Class of duly-authorized issue of
Certificates designated as set forth on the face hereof (the "Certificates")
issued in twenty-two Classes. The Certificates, in the aggregate, represent the
entire beneficial ownership in the Trust Fund formed pursuant to the Pooling and
Service Agreement. The Holder of this Certificate by virtue of acceptance hereof
assents and is bound by such Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
Terms capitalized herein and not otherwise defined herein shall
have the respective meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
On the 15th day of each month, or, if such day is not a Business
Day, then the next succeeding Business Day (each such day being a "Remittance
Date"), commencing September 1998, the Holders of the Certificates as of the
close of business on the last day of the calendar month immediately preceding
the calendar month in which such Remittance Date occurs (the "Record Date") will
be entitled to receive an amount equal to the Fractional Undivided Interest
evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to

Holder at a domestic bank or other entity having appropriate facilities
therefor, if such Holder has so notified the applicable Co-Trustee, or by check
mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as it appears on the
Register.
The Mortgage Loans will be serviced by The Money Store Inc. (the
"Servicer") pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Pooling and
Servicing Agreement permits the Servicer to enter into Subservicing Agreements
with certain institutions eligible for appointment as Subservicers for the
servicing and administration of certain Mortgage Loans. No appointment of any
Subservicer shall release the Servicer from any of its obligations under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
This Certificate is limited in right of payment to certain
collections and recoveries relating to the Mortgage Loans and amounts on deposit
in the applicable Certificate Account, and payments received by the undersigned
Co-Trustee pursuant to the related MBIA Policy, all as more specifically set
forth hereinabove and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
No Holder shall have any right to institute any proceeding,
judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, or
for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement except in compliance with the terms thereof.
Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Holder of any Certificate shall have the right, which is absolute
and unconditional, to receive distributions to the extent provided in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Certificate or to institute
suit for the enforcement of any such distribution, and such right shall not be
impaired without the consent of such Holder.
The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the obligations
created thereby will terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) the distribution
to the Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to them
thereunder and (ii) at any time when a Qualified Liquidation of the Trust is
effected; provided, however, that in no event shall the Trust continue beyond
the expiration of 21 years from the death of the survivor of the last lineal
descendant of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of the United States to the
Court of St. Xxxxx, living on the Startup Date.
Written notice of the final distribution to be made with respect
to each Class of Certificates shall be given by the applicable Co-Trustee to the
Certificateholders of each Class after the applicable Co-Trustee determines that
a final distribution is required to be made, specifying (i) the final Remittance
Date upon which final distribution on each Class of Certificates will be made
upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates of such Class at the office
of such Co-Trustee therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final
distribution and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such
Remittance Date is not applicable.
The final distribution on any Certificate shall only be made upon
presentation of such Certificate to the applicable Co-Trustee.
The Holders of a majority of the Percentage Interests represented
by the Pool I, Pool II and Pool III Certificates, upon compliance with the
requirements set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, have the right to
exercise any trust or power set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
with respect to the Certificates or the Trust Fund.
As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the transfer
of this Certificate is registrable in the Register upon surrender of this
Certificate for registration of transfer at the office designated as the
location of the Register duly endorsed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of like Class,
tenor and a like aggregate fractional undivided interest in the Trust Fund will
be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The undersigned Co-Trustee is required to furnish certain
information on each Remittance Date to the Holder of this Certificate, as more
fully described in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The Class of Certificates represented by this Certificate are
issuable only as registered Certificates in the minimum Percentage Interest
corresponding to a minimum denomination of $25,000 original principal amount and
integral multiples of $1.00. As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class as this
Certificate in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage
Interest.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Certificate Registrar or applicable Co-Trustee may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge payable in connection therewith.
The undersigned Co-Trustee and any agent of such Co-Trustee may
treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, and neither such Co-Trustee nor any such agent shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed
by the undersigned Co-Trustee or an Authenticating Agent, by manual signature,
this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be
valid for any purpose.

insured by the Federal Housing Administration under Title I of the National
Housing Act of 1934, and certain other related assets. The Certificates are
issued pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of July 31, 1998
(the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement"), among The Money Store Inc. (the
"Representative," "Servicer" and "Claims Administrator"), certain subsidiaries
of the Representative (the "Originators") and The Bank of New York, as
co-trustee, and Norwest Bank Minnesota, National Association, as co-trustee
(each a "Co-Trustee" and collectively the "Co-Trustees").
THIS CERTIFICATE IS A PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE ONLY AND,
NOTWITHSTANDING REFERENCES HEREIN TO PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST, NO DEBT OF ANY
PERSON IS REPRESENTED HEREBY.
NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE UNDERLYING MORTGAGE LOANS, EXCEPT THE
FHA LOANS, ARE INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE
CORPORATION, THE GOVERNMENT NATIONAL MORTGAGE ASSOCIATION OR ANY OTHER
GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY.
This Certificate is one of a Class of duly-authorized issue of
Certificates designated as set forth on the face hereof (the "Certificates")
issued in twenty-two Classes. The Certificates, in the aggregate, represent the
entire beneficial ownership in the Trust Fund formed pursuant to the Pooling and
Service Agreement. The Holder of this Certificate by virtue of acceptance hereof
assents and is bound by such Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
Terms capitalized herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have
the respective meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
On the 15th day of each month, or, if such day is not a Business Day,
then the next succeeding Business Day (each such day being a "Remittance Date"),
commencing September 1998, the Holders of the Certificates as of the close of
business on the last day of the calendar month immediately preceding the
calendar month in which such Remittance Date occurs (the "Record Date") will be
entitled to receive an amount equal to the Fractional Undivided Interest
evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to
Holders of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate. Except for the
final distribution, distributions will be made in immediately available funds to
Holders of Certificates, by wire transfer or otherwise, to the account of a
Holder at a domestic bank or other entity having appropriate facilities
therefor, if such Holder has so notified the applicable Co-Trustee, or by check
mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as it appears on the
Register.
Each Holder of record of a Class R-2 Certificate will be entitled to
receive such Holder's Percentage Interest in the amounts due on such Remittance
Date to the Holders of the Class R-2 Certificates. The amounts due on each
Remittance Date are limited to certain residual amounts remaining after all
amounts due to the Holders of the Pool I, Pool II and Pool III Certificates have
been paid on such Remittance Date.
The Mortgage Loans will be serviced by The Money Store Inc. (the
"Servicer") pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Pooling and
Servicing Agreement permits the Servicer to enter into Subservicing Agreements
with certain institutions eligible for appointment as Subservicers for the
servicing and administration of certain Mortgage Loans. No appointment of any
Subservicer shall release the Servicer from any of its obligations under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
This Certificate is limited in right of payment to certain collections
and recoveries relating to the Mortgage Loans and amounts on deposit in the
applicable Certificate Account all as more specifically set forth herein and in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
No Holder shall have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, with respect to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement except in compliance with the terms thereof.
Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Holder of any Certificate shall have the right which is absolute
and unconditional to receive distributions to the extent provided in the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement with respect to such Certificate or to institute suit
for the enforcement of any such distribution, and such right shall not be
impaired without the consent of such Holder.
The Pooling and Servicing Agreement provides that the obligations
created thereby will terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) the distribution
to the Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to them
thereunder and (ii) at any time when a Qualified Liquidation of the Trust is
effected; provided, however, that in no event shall the Trust continue beyond
the expiration of 21 years from the death of the survivor of the last lineal
descendant of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of the United States to the
Court of St. Xxxxx, living on the Startup Date.
Written notice of the final distribution to be made with respect to
each Class of Certificates shall be given by the applicable Co-Trustee to the
Certificateholders of each Class after the applicable Co-Trustee determines that
a final distribution is required to be made, specifying (i) the final Remittance
Date upon which final distribution on each Class of Certificates will be made
upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates of such Class at the office
of such Co-Trustee therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final
distribution and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such
Remittance Date is not applicable.
The final distribution on any Certificate shall only be made upon
presentation of such Certificate to the applicable Co-Trustee.
As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the transfer of
this Certificate is registrable in the Register upon surrender of this
Certificate for registration of transfer at the office designated as the
location of the Register duly endorsed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of like Class,
tenor and a like aggregate fractional undivided interest in the Trust Fund will
be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The applicable Co-Trustee is required to furnish certain information on
each Remittance Date to the Holder of this Certificate, as more fully described
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
As provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, Certificates are
exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate in
authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Registrar or applicable Co-Trustee may require payment of a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in
connection therewith.
The undersigned Co-Trustee and any agent of such Co-Trustee may treat
the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for
all purposes, and neither such Co-Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected
by notice to the contrary.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by
the undersigned Co-Trustee or an Authenticating Agent, by manual signature,
this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be
valid for any purpose.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Servicer has caused this Certificate to be duly
executed on behalf of the Trust Fund.

interest in the Certificate or any other similar security to, or solicited any
offer to buy or accept a transfer, pledge or other disposition of the
Certificate, any interest in the Certificate or any other similar security with,
any person in any manner, or made any general solicitation by means of general
advertising or in any other manner, or taken any other action which would
constitute a distribution of the Certificate under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "1933 Act"), or which would render the disposition of the
Certificate a violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act or require registration
pursuant thereto.
2. The Purchaser warrants and represents to, and covenants with, the
Seller, the Co-Trustee and the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.02 of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement that:
a. The Purchaser agrees to be bound, as Certificateholder, by all

or otherwise approached or negotiated with respect to the Certificate, any
interest in the Certificate or any other similar security with, any person
(other than a qualified institutional buyer within the meaning of Rule 144A) in
any manner, or made any general solicitation by means of general advertising or
in any other manner, or taken any other action which would constitute a
distribution of the Certificate under the 1933 Act or which would render the
disposition of the Certificate a violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act or
require registration pursuant thereto, nor will it act, nor has it authorized or
will it authorize any person to act, in such manner with respect to the
Certificate.
[The following is to be completed if transfer is being made pursuant to

3. The Purchaser understands and agrees with the Seller that the Seller

Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Seller, the Co-Trustee and the
Servicer that the Purchaser is a "qualified institutional buyer" as defined in
Rule 144A because (i) the Purchaser owned and/or invested on a discretionary
basis $_________1 in securities (except for the excluded securities referred to
below) as of the end of the Purchaser's most recent fiscal year (such amount
being calculated in accordance with Rule 144A) and (ii) the Purchaser satisfies
the criteria in the category marked below.
-----------------
1. The Purchaser must own and/or invest on a discretionary basis at least
$100,000,000 in securities unless Buyer is a dealer, and, in that case,

investment of such subsidiaries are managed under the Purchaser's direction.
However, such securities were not included if the Purchaser is a majority owned,
consolidated subsidiary of another enterprise and the Purchaser is not itself a

and Servicer to the effect that the acquisition, holding or transfer of the
Class X and Class R Certificates will not result in a non-exempt prohibited

Trustee or Servicer other than those set forth in this Agreement.
5. This Certification may be executed in one or more counterparts and
by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when so

The undersigned, being first duly sworn, deposes and says as follows:
1. The undersigned is a of , the proposed transferee (the "Transferee")
of a Percentage Interest in a Class R Certificate (the "Certificate") issued
pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, The Money Store Asset Backed
Certificates, Series 1998-B, Class AF-1, Class AF-2, Class AF-3, Class AF-4,
Class AF-5, Class AF-6, Class AF-7, Class AF-8, Class AF-9, Class AV, Class
AH-1, Class AH-2, Class AH-3, Class AH-4, Class AH-5, Class AH-6, Class MH-1,
Class MH-2, Class BH, Class X, Class R-1 and Class R-2, dated as of July 31,
1998 (the "Agreement"), among The Money Store Inc., as Representative and
Servicer (the "Servicer"), the Originators and The Bank of New York, as
co-trustee, and Norwest Bank Minnesota, National Association, as co-trustee
(each a "Co-Trustee" and collectively the "Co-Trustees"). Capitalized terms
used, but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in
the Agreement. The Transferee has authorized the undersigned to make this
affidavit on behalf of the Transferee.
2. The Transferee is, as of the date hereof, and will be, as of the
date of the transfer, a Permitted Transferee. The Transferee is acquiring its
Percentage Interest in the Certificate either (i) for its own account or (ii) as
nominee, trustee or agent for another Person and has attached hereto an
affidavit from such Person in substantially the same form as this affidavit. The
Transferee has no knowledge that any such affidavit is false.
3. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that (i) a tax
will be imposed on transfers of the Certificate to Persons that are not
Permitted Transferees; (ii) such tax will be imposed on the transferor, or, if
such transfer is through an agent (which includes a broker, nominee or
middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, on the agent; and
(iii) the Person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability for
the tax if the subsequent Transferee furnished to such Person an affidavit that
such subsequent Transferee is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of
transfer, such Person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is
false.
4. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that a tax will
be imposed on a "pass-through entity" holding the Certificate if at any time
during the taxable year of the pass-through entity a Person that is not a
Permitted Transferee is a record holder of an interest in such entity. The
Transferee understands that such tax will not be imposed for any period with
respect to which the record holder furnishes to the pass-through entity an
affidavit that such record holder is a Permitted Transferee and the pass-through
entity does not have actual knowledge that such affidavit is false. (For this
purpose, a "pass-through entity" includes a regulated investment company, a real
estate investment trust or common trust fund, a partnership trust or estate, and
certain cooperatives and, except as may be provided in Treasury Regulations,
persons holding interests in pass-through entities as a nominee for another
Person.)
5. The Transferee has reviewed the provisions of Section 4.02 of the
Agreement (incorporated herein by reference) and understands the legal
consequences of the acquisition of a Percentage Interest in the Certificate
including, without limitation, the restrictions on subsequent Transfers and the
provisions regarding voiding the Transfer and mandatory sales. The Transferee
expressly agrees to be bound by and to abide by the provisions of Section 4.02
of the Agreement and the restrictions noted on the face of the Certificate. The
Transferee understands and agrees that any breach of any of the representations
included herein shall render the transfer to the Transferee contemplated hereby
null and void.
6. The Transferee agrees to require a Transfer Affidavit from any
Person to whom the Transferee attempts to transfer its Percentage Interest in
the Certificate, and in connection with any transfer by a Person for whom the
Transferee is acting as nominee, trustee or agent, and the Transferee will not
transfer its Percentage Interest or cause any Percentage Interest to be
transferred to any Person that the Transferee knows is not a Permitted
Transferee. In connection with any such transfer by the Transferee, the
Transferee agrees to deliver to the Co-Trustee a certificate (a "Transfer
Certificate") to the effect that such Transferee has no actual knowledge that
the Person to which the transfer is to be made is not a Permitted Transferee.
7. The Transferee's taxpayer identification number is

duly authorized officer and its corporate seal to be hereunto affixed, duly

hereto (each an "Originator", and collectively the "Originators").
RECITALS
--------
1. Each Originator is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Servicer.
2. The Servicer, the Originators and The Bank of New York, as
co-trustee, and Norwest Bank Minnesota, National Association, as co-trustee
(each a "Co-Trustee" and collectively the "Co-Trustees"), are parties to that
certain Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated and effective as of July 31, 1998
(the "Pooling and Servicing Agreement").
3. Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, each
Originator has transferred those certain Mortgage Loans (as defined in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement) listed next to each Originator's name on
Schedule B hereto to the applicable Co-Trustees for the benefit of
Certificateholders (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement).
4. The Originators desire to convey to the Servicer the right to
service the Mortgage Loans. As authorized by the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the Servicer desires to enter into a subservicing agreement with each
Originator so that each Originator will perform subservicing functions for the
Mortgage Loans transferred by it to the applicable Co-Trustee, such subservicing
functions to be rendered in compliance with the terms of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.
5. Each Originator desires to undertake such subservicing and
supervision of the Mortgage Loans on the terms and conditions hereinafter set
forth.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the agreements of the parties
herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which each party hereby acknowledges, and in order in part to induce each
Co-Trustee to enter into the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and perform its
obligations thereunder, the parties agree as follows:
1. ASSIGNMENT OF SERVICING; SUBSERVICING AGREEMENT. Each Originator
hereby assigns, transfers, conveys and sets over to the Servicer, its successors
and assigns, all of such Originator's right, title and interest to service the
Mortgage Loans listed next to such Originator's name on the schedule furnished
by each Originator to the Servicer and dated the date hereof, to have and to
hold such rights hereby assigned, conveyed and transferred to the Servicer, for
its own use and benefit, and that of its successors and assigns, forever. In
consideration of the foregoing assignment, the Servicer hereby appoints each
Originator as subservicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans conveyed by each
such Originator to the respective Co-Trustee, each such Originator to service
and supervise such Mortgage Loans as provided for herein, such subservicing to
commence on the effective date of this Agreement and to terminate as provided
for herein. As compensation for such subservicing and supervision, each
Originator shall be entitled to an annual fee for each Mortgage Loan serviced,
such fee to be computed and paid as set forth on Schedule B hereto. Each
Originator, as contract subservicer, shall service and administer the Mortgage
Loans and shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do any and all
things in connection with such servicing and administration which the Originator
may deem necessary or desirable; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that each Originator shall
conduct its servicing activities (i) in compliance with and pursuant to the
servicing requirements set out in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, as such
requirements relate to subservicing rendered thereunder, and (ii) to the extent
not inconsistent with such Originator's obligations as an authorized subservicer
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, (x) in accordance with the provisions
of Section 3 hereof and (y) otherwise in accordance with the standards and
requirements set forth on Schedule C hereto and subject to applicable Federal,
state and local laws and regulations. On or after the date hereof, each
Originator shall deliver such appropriately executed and authenticated
instruments of sale, assignment, transfer and conveyance to the Servicer, if
any, including limited powers of attorney, as the Servicer or its counsel
determine to be reasonable in order to accomplish the transfer to the Servicer
of such Originator's rights with respect to the servicing.
2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each Originator represents and
warrants as follows:
2.1 Such Originator is a corporation duly organized, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of its state of incorporation. Originator is
and at all relevant times has been properly licensed and qualified to transact
business in all appropriate jurisdictions, to conduct all activities performed
with respect to origination and servicing of the Mortgage Loans and is in good
standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to be in such good standing
would have a material, adverse effect on the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby.
2.2 Originator has all requisite corporate power, authority and
capacity to enter into this Agreement and to perform the obligations required of
it hereunder. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Originator,
and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, have each been
duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action. This Agreement
constitutes the valid and legally binding agreement of Originator enforceable in
accordance with its terms, and no offset, counterclaim or defense exists to the
full performance of this Agreement, subject to laws respecting bankruptcy,
receivership, insolvency and other laws affecting creditors' rights generally.
2.3 The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by
Originator, its compliance with the terms hereof and consummation of the
transactions contemplated will not violate, conflict with, result in a breach
of, constitute a default under, be prohibited by or require any additional
approval under its certificate of incorporation, bylaws, or any instrument or
agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound or which affects the
servicing conveyed hereunder.
2.4 Such Originator is the lawful owner of the servicing, has the sole
right and authority to transfer the servicing as contemplated hereby, and is not
contractually obligated to sell the servicing to any other party. The transfer,
assignment and delivery of the servicing in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement shall vest in the Servicer all rights as servicer
free and clear of any and all claims, charges, defenses, offsets and
encumbrances of any kind or nature whatsoever, including but not limited to
those of Originator.
2.5 With respect to each individual Mortgage Loan for which servicing
rights are assigned hereunder, such Originator makes to the Servicer those
representations and warranties that are contained in Section 3.02 of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement.
3. ORIGINATOR'S DUTIES. Until the principal, interest and any other
amounts due on each Mortgage Loan are paid in full, each Originator shall:
A. Proceed diligently to collect all payments due under the
terms of each Mortgage Loan as they become due.
B. Keep a complete and accurate account of and properly apply
all sums collected by it from the mortgagor on account of each such
Mortgage Loan for principal and interest, and upon request, furnish
evidence acceptable to the Servicer of all expenditures for taxes,
assessments and other public charges and hazard insurance premiums. In
the event any Mortgagor fails to make a payment to an Originator
required to be made under the terms of any such Mortgage Loan, such
Originator will notify the Servicer of such fact within 20 days after
the same shall have become due and payable.
C. Deposit all funds received in respect of each Mortgage Loan
in an account in an institution the accounts of which are insured by an
agency of the United States government. Unless directed otherwise by
the Servicer such account shall be held by an Originator, which shall
maintain or shall cause to be maintained detailed records to show the
respective interest of each individual mortgagor in the account.
D. Pay into the related Principal and Interest Accounts (as
defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) all amounts of
principal and interest collected under the Mortgage Loans.
E. Submit to the Servicer at least annually an accounting of
the balances in each such account, if any.
F. Perform such other customary duties, furnish such other
reports and execute such other documents in connection with its duties
hereunder as the Servicer from time to time reasonably may require.
4. ADVANCES BY ORIGINATOR. In the event an Originator, on behalf of
the Servicer, makes any advance of principal and/or interest to the holder of a
mortgage serviced hereunder before such Originator has received the applicable
mortgage payment from any mortgagor, or makes any other advance to protect the
security of a mortgage or otherwise (including but not limited to property
taxes, special assessments, and hazard insurance premiums), EXCEPT advances
related to foreclosure or real estate owned losses (which are covered by Section
8), then the Servicer, promptly upon being billed therefore, shall, at its
option, either (i) reimburse such Originator the full amount of all such
advances, (ii) credit such amount as a set-off against amounts such Originator
may then owe to the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, (iii) use a combination
of such reimbursement and crediting to fully discharge such amount or (iv)
forego such reimbursement or crediting with respect to all or a portion of such
amount, in which case the amount not reimbursed or offset shall be deemed
currently due and payable and, until paid to such Originator, shall bear
interest on the average monthly balance thereof at the underlying Mortgage Loan
Rate.
5. ORIGINATOR'S RECORDS; MONITORING OF PROPERTY. Each Originator will
during regular business hours make all of its records and files relating to
Mortgage Loans covered by this Agreement available for inspection by the
Servicer and its authorized agents. In addition, an Originator will use ordinary
diligence to ascertain, and will forthwith notify the Servicer of any of the
following which might come to the attention of such Originator:
A. The vacating of or any change in the occupancy of any premises
securing a mortgage.
B. The sale or transfer of any such premises.
C. The death, bankruptcy, insolvency or other disability of a
mortgagor which might impair ability to repay the Mortgage Loan.
D. Any loss or damage in excess of $10,000 to any such premises,
in which event, in addition to notifying the Servicer, an Originator
shall see to it that the insurance companies concerned are promptly
notified. For losses or damages of $10,000 or less, the Servicer hereby
authorizes an Originator to endorse insurance checks or drafts on
behalf of the Servicer. For losses or damages in excess of $10,000, an
Originator shall make a report to the Servicer and the Servicer retains
the right to endorse any insurance drafts related to such loss or
damage.
E. Any lack of repair or any other deterioration or waste suffered
or committed in respect to the premises covered by any mortgage.
It is understood and agreed, however, that no notice need be given to the
Servicer of any facts other than those of which an Originator has actual notice,
or those of which an Originator would, except for its negligence, have had
actual notice.
6. NO WAIVER, RELEASE OR CONSENT BY ORIGINATOR. An Originator will not
waive, modify, release or consent to postponement on the part of the mortgagor
of any term or provision of any Mortgage Loan without the consent of the
Servicer.
7. HAZARD INSURANCE. An Originator shall cause to be maintained such
fire and hazard insurance as shall be requested by the Servicer pursuant to
Sections 5.07 and 5.08 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

and shall, subject to earlier termination pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 9, terminate upon the termination of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement. This Agreement may be canceled and terminated (i) at any time
hereunder by the Servicer on 10 days notice to an Originator, or (ii) by either
Co-Trustee on notice to an Originator, at any time after such Co-Trustee has
become the successor servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans pursuant to
Sections 10.01 and 10.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In addition,
this Agreement may be canceled and terminated by the Servicer, by notice to an
Originator, if:
A. An Originator fails in a material respect to perform its
obligations hereunder and (i) does not cure or rectify such failure
within 45 days or, (ii) if the character of such cure or rectification
is such that it cannot reasonably be effected within 45 days, does not
commence such cure or rectification within 45 days and complete the
same within a commercially reasonable time thereafter, given the
circumstances.
B. An Originator becomes insolvent or bankrupt or is placed under
conservatorship or receivership.
C. An Originator assigns or attempts to assign its rights and
obligations hereunder, without written consent of the Servicer,
provided that any assignment, transfer or other conveyance of an
Originator's rights and obligations hereunder that occurs as a result
of a merger, consolidation, reorganization, name change or acquisition
of or involving an Originator shall not be construed as an assignment
(or attempted assignment) under the provisions of this Section 9.C.
Upon termination of this Agreement, an Originator will account for and turn over
to the Servicer all funds collected under each Mortgage Loan for which said
termination is effective, less only the compensation, fees and reimbursements
then due an Originator, and will deliver to the Servicer or its designee all
records and documents relating to each such mortgage.
10. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, RULES AND REGULATIONS. Each Originator will
comply with, and will use all reasonable efforts to cause each Mortgagor to
comply with, all applicable state and federal rules and regulations or
requirements including those requiring the giving of notices.
11. FIDELITY, ERRORS AND OMISSIONS INSURANCE, ETC. Each Originator
agrees to be responsible, at no expense to the Servicer, for seeing to it that
at all times, while this Agreement is in force, policies of fidelity, fire, and
extended coverage, theft, forgery, and errors and omissions insurance are
maintained in conformity with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Each
Originator will, without demand therefore, provide the Servicer annually, on a
date agreeable to the Servicer, a certificate or binder of insurance delineating
the various types of insurance carried by such Originator.
12. MISCELLANEOUS. This document contains the entire agreement between
the parties hereto and cannot be modified in any respect except by an amendment
in writing signed by each party. The invalidity of any portion of this Agreement
shall in no way affect the balance thereof. Any notice permitted or required
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when hand delivered to
an officer or authorized agent of, or when mailed, registered or certified mail,
postage prepaid, to Servicer or an Originator at the address of the Servicer set
forth above. The captions and headings used in this Agreement are for
convenience only, and do not define or limit the terms and provisions of this
Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary,
nothing contained herein shall be deemed an attempt to assign or an assignment
of any servicing rights by an Originator to the Servicer if an attempted
assignment of the same without the consent of any agency or instrumentality of
the United States or a state thereof (a "Regulatory Authority") with
jurisdiction over such assignment would constitute a breach of an applicable
regulatory requirement or agreement between an Originator and such Regulatory
Authority unless and until such consent shall have been obtained. In the event
the consent of any Regulatory Authority is required to authorize the conveyance
of any or all of the servicing to be conveyed hereunder and such consent shall
not have been granted prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default under
Section 10.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, then upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default, each Originator shall enter into an agreement with each
Co-Trustee, which agreement shall be in form and substance satisfactory to each
such Co-Trustee and its counsel, which recognizes such Co-Trustee as the
successor servicer of the Mortgage Loans as provided for by such Section 10.01,
and shall continue to subservice the Mortgage Loans or shall convey such
subservicing at the election and upon the direction of such Co-Trustee.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each party has caused this instrument to be signed
in its corporate name on its behalf by its proper officials duly authorized as
of the day and year first above written.
