II-A1 Certificates, (iii) the Class II-A2 Certificates, (iv) the Class II-A3
Certificates, (v) the Class II-A4 Certificates, (vi) the Class M-1 Certificates,

As
provided herein, the Trustee shall elect to treat the segregated pool of assets
consisting of the Mortgage Loans and certain other related assets subject to
this Agreement (exclusive of the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account, any
Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts, the Cap Contract, the Swap Account,
the Supplemental Interest Trust and the Interest Rate Swap Agreement) as a
REMIC
for federal income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets shall be
designated as “REMIC 1.” The Class R-1 Interest shall represent the sole class
of “residual interests” in REMIC 1 for purposes of the REMIC Provisions (as
defined herein). The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation,
the
Uncertificated REMIC 1 Pass-Through Rate, the initial Uncertificated Principal
Balance and, for purposes of satisfying Treasury Regulation Section
1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the “latest possible maturity date” for each of the REMIC 1
Regular Interests (as defined herein). None of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests

The
Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does hereby
transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey in trust to the Trustee without
recourse for the benefit of the Certificateholders all the right, title and
interest of the Depositor, including any security interest therein for the
benefit of the Depositor, in and to (i) each Mortgage Loan identified on the
Mortgage Loan Schedule, including the related Cut-off Date Principal Balance,
all interest accruing thereon on and after the Cut-off Date and all collections
in respect of interest and principal due after the Cut-off Date; (ii) property
which secured each such Mortgage Loan and which has been acquired by foreclosure
or deed in lieu of foreclosure; (iii) its interest in any insurance policies
in
respect of the Mortgage Loans; (iv) the rights of the Depositor under the Master
Agreement (as assigned to the Depositor pursuant to the terms of the Assignment
Agreement), (v) the
right
to receive any amounts payable under the Cap Contract and the Interest Rate
Swap
Agreement,
(vi)
all other assets included or to be included in the Trust Fund and (vii) all
proceeds of any of the foregoing. Such assignment includes all interest and
principal due and collected by the Depositor or the Servicer after the Cut-off
Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
In
connection with such transfer and assignment, the Depositor, does hereby deliver
to, and deposit with, the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee),
the following documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan so
transferred and assigned (with respect to each Mortgage Loan, a “Mortgage
File”):
(i) the
original Mortgage Note including any riders thereto, endorsed either (A) in
blank or (B) in the following form: “Pay to the order of Deutsche Bank National
Trust Company, as Trustee, without recourse” or with respect to any lost
Mortgage Note, an original Lost Note Affidavit stating that the original
mortgage note was lost, misplaced or destroyed, together with a copy of the
related mortgage note; provided, however, that such substitutions of Lost Note
Affidavits for original Mortgage Notes may occur only with respect to Mortgage
Loans, the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of which is less than or
equal to 1.00% of the Pool Balance as of the Cut-off Date;
(ii) the
original Mortgage (noting the presence of the MIN of the Mortgage Loan and
language indicating that the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan if the Mortgage Loan
is
a MOM Loan), with evidence of recording thereon, and the original recorded
power
of attorney, if the Mortgage was executed pursuant to a power of attorney,
with
evidence of recording thereon or, if such Mortgage or power of attorney has
been
submitted for recording but has not been returned from the applicable public
recording office, has been lost or is not otherwise available, a copy of such
Mortgage or power of attorney, as the case may be, certified to be a true and
complete copy of the original submitted for recording;
(iii) unless
the Mortgage Loan is registered on the MERS® System, an original Assignment, in
form and substance acceptable for recording. The Mortgage shall be assigned
either (A) in blank or (B) to “Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee,
without recourse”;
(iv) an
original of any intervening assignment of Mortgage showing a complete chain
of
assignments (or to MERS if the Mortgage Loan is registered on the MERS® System
and noting the presence of MIN);
(v) the
original or a certified copy of lender’s title insurance policy;
and
(vi) the
original or copies of each assumption, modification, written assurance or
substitution agreement, if any.
The
Depositor herewith also delivers to the Trustee an executed copy of the
Assignment Agreement and the Master Agreement.
If
any of
the documents referred to in Section 2.01(ii), (iii) or (iv) above has as of
the
Closing Date been submitted for recording but either (x) has not been returned
from the applicable public recording office or (y) has been lost or such public
recording office has retained the original of such document, the obligations
of
the Depositor to deliver such documents shall be deemed to be satisfied upon
(1)
delivery to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) no later
than the Closing Date, of a copy of each such document certified by the
Originator in the case of (x) above or the applicable public recording office
in
the case of (y) above to be a true and complete copy of the original that was
submitted for recording and (2) if such copy is certified by the Originator,
delivery to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) promptly
upon receipt thereof of either the original or a copy of such document certified
by the applicable public recording office to be a true and complete copy of
the
original. If the original lender’s title insurance policy, or a certified copy
thereof, was not delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(v) above, the Depositor
shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee (or the Custodian on
behalf of the Trustee), the original or a copy of a written commitment or
interim binder or preliminary report of title issued by the title insurance
or
escrow company, with the original or a certified copy thereof to be delivered
to
the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee), promptly upon receipt
thereof. The Servicer or the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered
to
the Trustee or the Custodian promptly upon receipt thereof any other documents
constituting a part of a Mortgage File received with respect to any Mortgage
Loan, including, but not limited to, any original documents evidencing an
assumption or modification of any Mortgage Loan.
Upon
discovery or receipt of notice of any materially defective document in, or
that
a document is missing from, a Mortgage File, the Trustee shall enforce the
obligations of the Originator under the Master Agreement to cure such defect
or
deliver such missing document to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of
the
Trustee) within 90 days. If the Originator does not cure such defect or deliver
such missing document within such time period, the Trustee shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the obligations of the Originator
to
either repurchase or substitute for such Mortgage Loan in accordance with
Section 2.03; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be under any
obligation to take any action pursuant to this paragraph unless directed by
the
Depositor and provided, further, the Depositor hereby agrees to assist the
Trustee in enforcing any obligations of the Originator to repurchase or
substitute for a Mortgage Loan which has breached a representation or warranty
under the Assignment Agreement. In connection with the foregoing, it is
understood that the Trustee shall have no duty to discover any such defects
except in the course of performing its review of the Mortgage Files to the
extent set forth herein.
Except
with respect to any Mortgage Loan for which MERS is identified on the Mortgage,
the Trustee (upon receipt of notice from the Custodian) shall enforce the
obligations of the Originator under the Master Agreement to cause the
Assignments which were delivered in blank to be completed and to record all
Assignments referred to in Section 2.01(iii) hereof and, to the extent
necessary, in Section 2.01(iv) hereof. The Trustee shall enforce the obligations
of the Originator under the Master Agreement to deliver such assignments for
recording within 180 days of the Closing Date. In the event that any such
Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect therein, the
Trustee shall enforce the obligations of the Originator under the Master
Agreement to promptly have a substitute Assignment prepared or have such defect
cured, as the case may be, and thereafter cause each such Assignment to be
duly
recorded.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, for administrative convenience and facilitation of servicing
and
to reduce closing costs, the Assignments shall not be required to be submitted
for recording (except with respect to any Mortgage Loan located in Maryland)
unless the Trustee and the Depositor receive notice that such failure to record
would result in a withdrawal or a downgrading by any Rating Agency of the rating
on any Class of Certificates; provided, however, each Assignment, except with
respect to any Mortgage Loan for which MERS is identified on the Mortgage,
shall
be submitted for recording in the manner described above, at no expense to
the
Trust Fund or Trustee, upon the earliest to occur of: (i) reasonable direction
by the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights,
(ii) the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Termination, (iii) the occurrence
of
a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Originator, (iv) the
occurrence of a servicing transfer as described in Section 7.02 hereof, (v)
upon
receipt of notice from the Servicer, the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency
or foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage, (vi) upon
receipt of notice from the Servicer, any Mortgage Loan that is 90 days or more
Delinquent and (vii) reasonable direction by the NIMS Insurer. In the event
of
(i) through (vii) set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Trustee
shall enforce the obligations of the Originator to deliver such Assignments
for
recording as provided above, promptly and in any event within 30 days following
receipt of notice by the Originator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
Originator fails to pay the cost of recording the Assignments, such expense
will
be paid by the Trustee and the Trustee shall be reimbursed for such expenses
by
the Trust.
The
Servicer shall forward to the Custodian original documents evidencing an
assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of any Mortgage Loan
entered into in accordance with this Agreement within two weeks of their
execution; provided, however, that the Servicer shall provide the Custodian
with
a certified true copy of any such document submitted for recordation within
two
weeks of its execution, and shall provide the original of any document submitted
for recordation or a copy of such document certified by the appropriate public
recording office to be a true and complete copy of the original within 365
days
of its submission for recordation. In the event that the Servicer cannot provide
a copy of such document certified by the public recording office within such
365
day period, the Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian, within such 365 day
period, an Officers’ Certificate of the Servicer which shall (A) identify the
recorded document, (B) state that the recorded document has not been delivered
to the Custodian due solely to a delay caused by the public recording office,
(C) state the amount of time generally required by the applicable recording
office to record and return a document submitted for recordation, if known
and
(D) specify the date the applicable recorded document is expected to be
delivered to the Custodian, and, upon receipt of a copy of such document
certified by the public recording office, the Servicer shall immediately deliver
such document to the Custodian. In the event the appropriate public recording
office will not certify as to the accuracy of such document, the Servicer shall
deliver a copy of such document certified by an officer of the Servicer to
be a
true and complete copy of the original to the Custodian.
The
parties hereto understand and agree that it is not intended that any Mortgage
Loan be included in the Trust that is a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined by the
Homeownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994 or any other applicable
predatory or abusive lending laws.
The
Depositor hereby directs the Trust Administrator to execute, deliver and perform
its obligations under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement (in its capacity as
Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee) and the Cap Contract. The Depositor, the
Servicer and the Holders of the Fixed Rate Certificates and the Floating Rate
Certificates by their acceptance of such Certificates acknowledge and agree
that
the Trust Administrator shall execute, deliver and perform its obligations
under
the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and the Cap Contract and shall do so solely
in
its capacity as Trust Administrator or as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee,
as the case may be, and not in its individual capacity. Every provision of
this
Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording
protection to the Trust Administrator shall apply to the Trust Administrator’s
execution of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and the Cap Contract, and the
performance of its duties and satisfaction of its obligations
thereunder.
| SECTION 2.02 |
Acceptance
by Trustee.
|
Subject
to the provisions of Section 2.01 and subject to the review described below
and
any exceptions noted on the exception report described in the next paragraph
below, the Trustee acknowledges receipt (or receipt by the Custodian on behalf
of the Trustee) of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 above and all
other
assets included in the definition of “Trust Fund” and declares that it holds and
will hold such documents and the other documents delivered to it constituting
a
Mortgage File, and that it holds or will hold all such assets and such other
assets included in the definition of “Trust Fund” in trust for the exclusive use
and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.
The
Trustee agrees to execute and deliver to the Depositor and the Servicer on
or
prior to the Closing Date an acknowledgment of receipt of the related original
Mortgage Note for each Mortgage Loan (with any exceptions noted), substantially
in the form attached as Exhibit F-3 hereto.
The
Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) agrees, for the benefit
of
the Certificateholders, to review, or that it has reviewed pursuant to Section
2.01 (or to cause the Custodian to review or that it has caused the Custodian
to
have reviewed) each Mortgage File on or prior to the Closing Date, with respect
to each Mortgage Loan (or, with respect to any document delivered after the
Startup Day, within 45 days of receipt and with respect to any Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan, within 45 days after the assignment thereof). The
Trustee further agrees, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to certify
to
the Depositor and the Servicer (with a copy to the NIMS Insurer) in
substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-1, within 45 days after
the
Closing Date, with respect to each Mortgage Loan (or, with respect to any
document delivered after the Startup Day, within 45 days of receipt and with
respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage, within 45 days after the
assignment thereof) that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan
Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan
specifically identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not being
covered by such certification), (i) all documents required to be delivered
to it
pursuant to Section 2.01 of this Agreement are in its possession, (ii) such
documents have been reviewed by it and have not been mutilated, damaged or
torn
and appear on their face to relate to such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on
its
examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to items (1) and (3) of the Mortgage
Loan Schedule accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File.
It
is herein acknowledged that, in conducting such review, the Trustee (or the
Custodian, as applicable) is under no duty or obligation to inspect, review
or
examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to
determine that they are genuine, legally enforceable, valid or binding or
appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have actually been recorded
or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face.
Prior
to
the first anniversary date of this Agreement the Trustee shall deliver (or
cause
the Custodian to deliver) to the Depositor the Trustee, the Servicer and the
Master Servicer (with a copy to the NIMS Insurer) a final certification in
the
form annexed hereto as Exhibit F-2, with any applicable exceptions noted
thereon.
If
in the
process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making or preparing, as the case
may
be, the certifications referred to above, the Trustee (or the Custodian, as
applicable) finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage
File to be missing or not to conform with respect to any characteristics which
are within the scope of the Trustee’s (or the Custodian’s, as applicable) review
as provided herein, at the conclusion of its review, the Trustee (or the
Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) shall so notify the Seller, the Depositor,
the Originator, the Trustee, the Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Master
Servicer. In addition, upon the discovery by the Depositor or the Servicer
or
the Master Servicer (or upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification
of
such breach) of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made
by
the Originator in the Master Agreement or the Seller in the Assignment Agreement
in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects such Mortgage
Loan or the interests of the Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the
party
discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties
to
this Agreement and the NIMS Insurer.
The
Depositor and the Trustee intend that the assignment and transfer herein
contemplated constitute a sale of the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage
Notes
and the related documents, conveying good title thereto free and clear of any
liens and encumbrances, from the Depositor to the Trustee in trust for the
benefit of the Certificateholders and that such property not be part of the
Depositor’s estate or property of the Depositor in the event of any insolvency
by the Depositor. In the event that such conveyance is deemed to be, or to
be
made as security for, a loan, the parties intend that the Depositor shall be
deemed to have granted and does hereby grant to the Trustee a first priority
perfected security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest
in and to the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes and the related
documents, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under
applicable law.
| SECTION 2.03 |
Repurchase
or Substitution of Mortgage Loans by the Originator or the
Seller.
|
(a) Upon
discovery or receipt of written notice from the Custodian of any materially
defective document in, or that a document is missing from, a Mortgage File
or of
the breach by the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, of any
representation, warranty or covenant under the Master Agreement or the
Assignment Agreement, as applicable, in respect of any Mortgage Loan which
materially adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest
therein of the Certificateholders, the Trustee shall request that the Originator
deliver such missing document or that the Originator or the Seller cure such
defect or breach within 90 days from the date the Originator or the Seller
was
notified of such missing document, defect or breach, and if the Originator
or
the Seller does not deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach
in all material respects during such period, the Trustee shall enforce (in
the
manner set forth in Section 2.01) the Originator’s obligation under the Master
Agreement or the Seller’s obligation under the Assignment Agreement and notify
the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, of its obligation to repurchase
such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price on or prior to
the
Determination Date following the expiration of such 90 day period (subject
to
Section 2.03(e)). The Purchase Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan shall
be
remitted to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account, and the Trustee,
(or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee), upon receipt of written
certification from the Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Originator
or the Seller, as applicable, the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall
execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case
without recourse, as the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, shall furnish
to it and as shall be necessary to vest in the Originator or the Seller, as
applicable, any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and the Trustee and
the
Custodian shall have no further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage
File
(it being understood that the Trustee shall have no responsibility for
determining the sufficiency of such assignment for its intended purpose). In
lieu of repurchasing any such Mortgage Loan as provided above, the Originator
or
the Seller, as applicable, may cause such Mortgage Loan to be removed from
the
Trust Fund (in which case it shall become a Deleted Mortgage Loan) and
substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and
subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d); provided, however,
neither the Originator nor the Seller may substitute for any Mortgage Loan
which
breaches a representation or warranty regarding abusive or predatory lending
laws. In furtherance of the foregoing, if the Originator or the Seller, as
applicable, is not a member of MERS and repurchases a Mortgage Loan which is
registered on the MERS® System, the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, at
its own expense and without any right of reimbursement, shall cause MERS to
execute and deliver an assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer
the Mortgage from MERS to the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, and
shall
cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the MERS® System in
accordance with MERS’ rules and regulations. It is understood and agreed that
the obligation of the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, to cure or to
repurchase (or to substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a document
is
missing, a material defect in a constituent document exists or as to which
such
a breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against
the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, respecting such omission, defect
or
breach available to the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders.
(b) Within
90
days of the earlier of discovery by the Depositor or receipt of notice by the
Depositor of the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the
Depositor set forth in Section 2.06, which materially and adversely affects
the
interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, the Depositor shall
cure such breach in all material respects.
(c) Within
90
days of the earlier of discovery by the Servicer or receipt of notice by the
Servicer of the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the
Servicer set forth in Section 2.05 which materially and adversely affects the
interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall
cure such breach in all material respects.
(d) Any
substitution of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for Deleted Mortgage Loans
made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) must be effected prior to the last Business
Day
that is within two years after the Closing Date. As to any Deleted Mortgage
Loan
for which the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, substitutes a Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be effected by the
Originator or the Seller, as applicable, delivering to the Trustee, (or the
Custodian on behalf of the Trustee), for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loan
or Loans, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and the Assignment to the Trustee,
and
such other documents and agreements, with all necessary endorsements thereon,
as
are required by Section 2.01, together with an Officers’ Certificate providing
that each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies the definition
thereof and specifying the Substitution Adjustment (as described below), if
any,
in connection with such substitution. The Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf
of
the Trustee), shall acknowledge receipt for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loan or Loans and, within 45 days thereafter, shall review such documents as
specified in Section 2.02 and deliver to the Depositor and the Servicer, with
respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, a certification
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-1 (with a copy to the
NIMS Insurer), with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. Within one year
of
the date of substitution, the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the
Trustee) shall deliver to the Depositor and the Servicer a certification
substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 hereto (with a copy to the NIMS
Insurer) with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans,
with
any applicable exceptions noted thereon. Monthly Payments due with respect
to
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution are not part
of
the Trust Fund and will be retained by the Originator or the Seller, as
applicable. For the month of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders
will reflect the collections and recoveries in respect of such Deleted Mortgage
Loan in the Due Period preceding the month of substitution and the Originator
or
the Seller, as applicable, shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts
subsequently received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Servicer
shall give or cause to be given written notice to the Trustee and the NIMS
Insurer, who shall forward such notice to the Certificateholders, that such
substitution has taken place, shall amend the 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 or Loans and shall
deliver a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Master Servicer,
the Trust Administrator, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Servicer and the NIMS
Insurer. Upon such substitution by the Originator or the Seller, as applicable,
such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall constitute part of the
Mortgage Pool and shall be subject in all respects to the terms of this
Agreement and the Assignment Agreement, including all applicable representations
and warranties thereof included in the Assignment Agreement as of the date
of
substitution.
For
any
month in which the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, substitutes one
or
more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans,
the Servicer will determine the amount (the “Substitution Adjustment”), if any,
by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans exceeds
the aggregate, as to each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, of the Stated
Principal Balance thereof as of the date of substitution, together with one
month’s interest on such Stated Principal Balance at the applicable Mortgage
Rate. On the date of such substitution, the Originator or the Seller, as
applicable, will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Servicer for deposit
in
the Collection Account an amount equal to the Substitution Adjustment, if any,
and the Trustee, (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee), upon receipt
of
the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and certification by
the
Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Originator or the Seller, as
applicable, the related Mortgage File or Files and the Trustee shall execute
and
deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without
recourse, as the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, shall deliver to
it
and as shall be necessary to vest therein any Deleted Mortgage Loan released
pursuant hereto.
In
addition, pursuant to the terms of the Assignment Agreement, the Originator
or
the Seller, as applicable, shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to the
Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the NIMS Insurer an Opinion of Counsel
to
the effect that such substitution will not cause (a) any federal tax to be
imposed on the Trust Fund, including without limitation, any federal tax imposed
on “prohibited transactions” under Section 860F(a)(I) of the Code or on
“contributions after the startup date” under Section 860G(d)(I) of the Code or
(b) any REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate
is
outstanding. If such Opinion of Counsel can not be delivered, then such
substitution may only be effected at such time as the required Opinion of
Counsel can be given.
(e) Upon
discovery by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or
the
NIMS Insurer that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a “qualified mortgage”
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering
such
fact shall within two Business Days give written notice thereof to the other
parties hereto. In connection therewith, the Originator or the Depositor, as
the
case may be, shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations set forth in
Section 2.03(d), substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans
for
the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of the earlier of discovery or receipt
of such notice with respect to such affected Mortgage Loan. Such repurchase
or
substitution shall be made (i) by the Originator if the affected Mortgage Loan’s
status as a non-qualified mortgage is or results from a breach of any
representation, warranty or covenant made by the Originator under the Assignment
Agreement or (ii) the Depositor, if the affected Mortgage Loan’s status as a
non-qualified mortgage is a breach of any representation or warranty of the
Depositor set forth in Section 2.06, or if its status as a non-qualified
mortgage is a breach of no representation or warranty. Any such repurchase
or
substitution shall be made in the same manner as set forth in Section 2.03(a)
or
2.03(d), if made by the Originator, or Section 2.03(b), if made by the
Depositor. The Trustee shall reconvey to the Depositor or the Originator, as
the
case may be, the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant hereto in the same
manner, and on the same terms and conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan
repurchased for breach of a representation or warranty.
(f) Upon
discovery or receipt of written notice of a breach by the Seller of any
representation, warranty or covenant made by the Seller under the Assignment
Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects
the
value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the Certificateholders,
and if either (i) such Mortgage Loan is not in breach of any representation,
warranty or covenant of the Originator or (ii) the Originator has failed to
remedy such representation, warranty or covenant with respect to such Mortgage
Loan, then the Trustee shall enforce the obligation of the Seller to remedy
such
breach, to the extent provided in the Assignment Agreement, in the manner and
within the time periods set forth in the Assignment Agreement.

might prohibit or materially and adversely affect the performance by the Master
Servicer of its obligations under, or validity or enforceability of, this
Agreement; and

ARTICLE
III
ADMINISTRATION
AND SERVICING
OF
THE
MORTGAGE LOANS
| SECTION 3.01 |
Servicer
to Act as Servicer.
|
The
Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Trust
Fund and in the best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders
(as determined by the Servicer in its reasonable judgment) in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement and the Mortgage Loans and, to the extent consistent
with such terms, in the same manner in which it services and administers similar
mortgage loans for its own portfolio, giving due consideration to customary
and
usual standards of practice of mortgage lenders and loan servicers administering
similar mortgage loans but without regard to:
(i) any
relationship that the Servicer, any Sub-Servicer or any Affiliate of the
Servicer or any Sub-Servicer may have with the related Mortgagor;
(ii) the
ownership or non-ownership of any Certificate by the Servicer or any Affiliate
of the Servicer;
(iii) the
Servicer’s obligation to make Advances or Servicing Advances; or
(iv) the
Servicer’s or any Sub-Servicer’s right to receive compensation for its services
hereunder or with respect to any particular transaction.
To
the
extent consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer (a) shall seek to maximize
the timely and complete recovery of principal and interest on the Mortgage
Notes
and (b) shall waive (or permit a Sub-Servicer to waive) a Prepayment Charge
only
under the following circumstances: (i) such waiver is standard and customary
in
servicing similar mortgage loans and such waiver relates to a default or a
reasonably foreseeable default and would, in the reasonable judgment of the
Servicer, maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value
of
such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the collection of
such Prepayment Charge would be in violation of applicable laws, (iii) the
amount of the Prepayment Charge set forth on the Prepayment Charge Schedule
is
not consistent with the related Mortgage Note or is otherwise unenforceable
or
(iv) the collection of such Prepayment Charge would be considered “predatory”
pursuant to written guidance published or issued by any applicable federal,
state or local regulatory authority acting in its official capacity and having
jurisdiction over such matters. If a Prepayment Charge is waived as permitted
by
meeting the standard described in clauses (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, then the
Trustee (upon receipt of written notice from the Servicer that such waiver
has
occurred) shall work with the Depositor to enforce the obligation of the
Originator to pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge to the Trust
Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account for the benefit of the
Holders of the Class P Certificates. If a Prepayment Charge is waived other
than
in accordance with (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, the Servicer shall pay the
amount of such waived Prepayment Charge to the Trust Administrator for deposit
in the Distribution Account for the benefit of the Holders of the Class P
Certificates.
Subject
only to the above-described servicing standards and the terms of this Agreement
and of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall have full power and authority,
acting alone or through Sub-Servicers as provided in Section 3.02, to do or
cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and
administration which it may deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Servicer in its own name or in the name of
a
Sub-Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee when the Servicer
believes it appropriate in its best judgment in accordance with the servicing
standards set forth above, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the
Certificateholders and the Trustee, and upon notice to the Trustee, any and
all
instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release
or
discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage
Loans and the Mortgaged Properties and to institute foreclosure proceedings
or
obtain a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure so as to convert the ownership of such
properties, and to hold or cause to be held title to such properties, on behalf
of the Trustee and Certificateholders. The Servicer shall service and administer
the Mortgage Loans in accordance with applicable state and federal law and
shall
provide to the Mortgagors any reports required to be provided to them thereby.
The Servicer shall also comply in the performance of this Agreement with all
reasonable rules and requirements of any standard hazard insurance policy.
Subject to Section 3.17, the Trustee shall execute, at the written request
of
the Servicer, and furnish to the Servicer and any Sub-Servicer any special
or
limited powers of attorney and other documents as are necessary or appropriate
to enable the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer to carry out their servicing and
administrative duties hereunder; provided, such limited powers of attorney
or
other documents shall be prepared by the Servicer and submitted to the Trustee
for execution. The Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer
or any Sub-Servicers under such powers of attorney.
Subject
to Section 3.09 hereof, in accordance with the standards of the preceding
paragraph, the Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary
for the purpose of effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on
the
Mortgaged Properties, which advances shall be Servicing Advances reimbursable
in
the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to
Section 3.09, and further as provided in Section 3.11. Any cost incurred by
the
Servicer or by Sub-Servicers in effecting the timely payment of taxes and
assessments on a Mortgaged Property shall not, for the purpose of calculating
distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid Stated Principal
Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such
Mortgage Loan so permit.
The
Servicer further is authorized and empowered by the Trustee, on behalf of the
Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its own name or in the name of the
Sub-Servicer, when the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer, as the case may be,
believes it is appropriate in its best judgment to register any Mortgage Loan
on
the MERS System, or cause the removal from the registration of any Mortgage
Loan
on the MERS System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of assignment and
other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment or re-recording
of
a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the Trustee and its
successors and assigns. Any reasonable expenses (i) incurred as a result of
MERS
discontinuing or becoming unable to continue operations in connection with
the
MERS System or (ii) if the affected Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the
judgment of the Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable, incurred
in
connection with the actions described in the preceding sentence, shall be
subject to withdrawal by the Servicer from the Collection Account.
Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer may not make any future
Advances with respect to a Mortgage Loan (except as provided in Section 4.04)
and the Servicer shall not (i) permit any modification with respect to any
Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage Rate, reduce or increase the Stated
Principal Balance (except for reductions resulting from actual payments of
principal) or change the final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan (unless,
in
any such case, as provided in Section 3.07, the Mortgagor is in default with
respect to the Mortgage Loan or such default is, in the judgment of the
Servicer, reasonably foreseeable) or (ii) permit any modification, waiver or
amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would both (A) effect an
exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under Section 1001 of the Code
(or
Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder) and (B) cause any REMIC created
hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or the imposition of
any
tax on “prohibited transactions” or “contributions after the startup date” under
the REMIC Provisions.
Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary and notwithstanding its ability
to do
so pursuant to the terms of the related mortgage note, the Servicer shall not
be
required to enforce any provision in any mortgage note the enforcement of which
would violate federal, state or local laws or ordinances designed to discourage
predatory lending practices.
The
Servicer may delegate its responsibilities under this Agreement; provided,
however, that no such delegation shall release the Servicer from the
responsibilities or liabilities arising under this Agreement.
| SECTION 3.02 |
Sub-Servicing
Agreements Between Servicer and
Sub-Servicers.
|
(a) The
Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements with Sub-Servicers, which
may
be Affiliates of the Servicer, for the servicing and administration of the
Mortgage Loans; provided, however, (i) such sub-servicing arrangement and the
terms of the related Sub-Servicing Agreement must provide for the servicing
of
the Mortgage Loans in a manner consistent with the servicing arrangement
contemplated hereunder and (ii) the NIMS Insurer shall have consented to such
sub-servicing agreement. The Trustee is hereby authorized to acknowledge, at
the
request of the Servicer, any Sub-Servicing Agreement. No such acknowledgment
shall be deemed to imply that the Trustee has consented to any such
Sub-Servicing Agreement, has passed upon whether such Sub-Servicing Agreement
meets the requirements applicable to Sub-Servicing Agreements set forth in
this
Agreement or has passed upon whether such Sub-Servicing Agreement is otherwise
permitted under this Agreement.
(b) Each
Sub-Servicer shall be (i) authorized to transact business in the state or states
in which the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if
and
to the extent required by applicable law to enable the Sub-Servicer to perform
its obligations hereunder and under the Sub-Servicing Agreement and (ii) an
institution approved as a mortgage loan originator by the Federal Housing
Administration or an institution that has deposit accounts insured by the FDIC.
Each Sub-Servicing Agreement must impose on the Sub-Servicer requirements
conforming to the provisions set forth in Section 3.08, 3.20 or 3.21 and provide
for servicing of the Mortgage Loans consistent with the terms of this Agreement.
The Servicer will examine each Sub-Servicing Agreement and will be familiar
with
the terms thereof. The terms of any Sub-Servicing Agreement will not be
inconsistent with any of the provisions of this Agreement. The Servicer and
the
Sub-Servicers may enter into and make amendments to the Sub-Servicing Agreements
or enter into different forms of Sub-Servicing Agreements; provided, however,
that any such amendments or different forms shall be consistent with and not
violate the provisions of this Agreement, and that no such amendment or
different form shall be made or entered into which could be reasonably expected
to be materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders, without
the
consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting
Rights. Any variation without the consent of the Holders of Certificates
entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights from the provisions set forth
in
Section 3.08 (relating to insurance or priority requirements of Sub-Servicing
Accounts, or credits and charges to the Sub- Servicing Accounts or the timing
and amount of remittances by the Sub-Servicers to the Servicer), Section 3.20
or
Section 3.21, are conclusively deemed to be inconsistent with this Agreement
and
therefore prohibited. The Servicer shall deliver to the NIMS Insurer, the
Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Master Servicer copies of all
Sub-Servicing Agreements and any amendments or modifications thereof, promptly
upon the Servicer’s execution and delivery of such instruments.
(c) As
part
of its servicing activities hereunder, the Servicer (except as otherwise
provided in the last sentence of this paragraph), for the benefit of the Trustee
and the Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Sub-Servicer
under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement, including, without limitation, any
obligation of a Sub-Servicer to make advances in respect of delinquent payments
as required by a Sub-Servicing Agreement. Such enforcement, including, without
limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Sub-Servicing
Agreements, and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such
form
and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Servicer, in its
good
faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage
Loans. The Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense,
and shall be reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general recovery resulting
from
such enforcement, to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts
due in respect of the related Mortgage Loans, or (ii) from a specific recovery
of costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees against the party against whom such
enforcement is directed.
(d) As
a
condition to the utilization of any Subcontractor determined to be
“participating in the servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of
Regulation AB, the Servicer shall cause any such Subcontractor used by the
Servicer (or by any Sub-Servicer) for the benefit of the Depositor, the Master
Servicer and the Trust Administrator to comply with the provisions of Sections
3.20, 3.21 and 4.05 of this Agreement to the same extent as if such
Subcontractor were the Servicer. The Servicer shall be responsible for obtaining
from each Subcontractor and delivering to the Depositor, the Master Servicer
and
the Trust Administrator any assessment of compliance and attestation required
to
be delivered by such Subcontractor under Section 3.21, in each case as and
when
required to be delivered.
| SECTION 3.03 |
Successor
Sub-Servicers.
|
The
Servicer, with the consent of the NIMS Insurer, shall be entitled to terminate
any Sub-Servicing Agreement and the rights and obligations of any Sub-Servicer
pursuant to any Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms and
conditions of such Sub-Servicing Agreement. In the event of termination of
any
Sub-Servicer, all servicing obligations of such Sub-Servicer shall be assumed
simultaneously by the Servicer without any act or deed on the part of such
Sub-Servicer or the Servicer, and the Servicer either shall service directly
the
related Mortgage Loans or shall enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with a
successor Sub-Servicer which qualifies under Section 3.02.
Any
Sub-Servicing Agreement shall include the provision that such agreement may
be
immediately terminated by the Master Servicer (if the Master Servicer is acting
as Servicer) without fee, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in
the
event that the Servicer (or the Master Servicer, if it is then acting as
Servicer) shall, for any reason, no longer be the Servicer (including
termination due to a Servicer Event of Termination).
| SECTION 3.04 |
Liability
of the Servicer.
|
Notwithstanding
any Sub-Servicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating
to
agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a Sub-Servicer or reference
to actions taken through a Sub-Servicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain
obligated and primarily liable to the Trustee and the Certificateholders for
the
servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the
provisions of Section 3.01 without diminution of such obligation or liability
by
virtue of such Sub-Servicing Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of
indemnification from the Sub-Servicer and to the same extent and under the
same
terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering
the Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement
with a Sub- Servicer for indemnification of the Servicer by such Sub-Servicer
and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify
such
indemnification.
| SECTION 3.05 |
No
Contractual Relationship Between Sub-Servicers and the Trustee, the
Trust
Administrator, the NIMS Insurer or
Certificateholders.
|
Any
Sub-Servicing Agreement that may be entered into and any transactions or
services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Sub-Servicer in its capacity
as such shall be deemed to be between the Sub-Servicer and the Servicer alone,
and the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator
and the Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have
no
claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the
Sub-Servicer except as set forth in Section 3.06. The Servicer shall be solely
liable for all fees owed by it to any Sub-Servicer, irrespective of whether
the
Servicer’s compensation pursuant to this Agreement is sufficient to pay such
fees.
| SECTION 3.06 |
Assumption
or Termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements by Master
Servicer.
|
In
the
event the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Servicer (including
by
reason of the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Termination), the Master
Servicer or, if the Master Servicer is the Servicer, the Trustee (or the
successor servicer appointed pursuant to Section 7.02) (or
another successor master servicer)
shall
thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under each
Sub-Servicing Agreement that the Servicer may have entered into, unless the
Master Servicer or the Trustee (or successor servicer or master servicer),
as
applicable, elects to terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with
its terms as provided in Section 3.03. Upon such assumption, the Master Servicer
or the Trustee, as applicable (or the successor servicer appointed pursuant
to
Section 7.02 (or another successor master servicer) shall be deemed, subject
to
Section 3.03, to have assumed all of the Servicer’s interest therein and to have
replaced the Servicer as a party to each Sub-Servicing Agreement to the same
extent as if each Sub-Servicing Agreement had been assigned to the assuming
party, except that (i) the departing Servicer shall not thereby be relieved
of
any liability or obligations under any Sub-Servicing Agreement and (ii) none
of
the Trust Administrator, its designee or any successor Servicer shall be deemed
to have assumed any liability or obligation of the Servicer that arose before
it
ceased to be the Servicer.
The
Servicer at its expense shall, upon request of the Master Servicer, deliver
to
the assuming party all documents and records relating to each Sub-Servicing
Agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced and an accounting of
amounts collected and held by or on behalf of it, and otherwise use its best
efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Sub-Servicing
Agreements to the assuming party.
| SECTION 3.07 |
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 and the terms and provisions
of any applicable insurance policies, follow such collection procedures as
it
would follow with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans
and
held for its own account. Consistent with the foregoing and the servicing
standards set forth in Section 3.01, the Servicer may in its discretion (i)
waive any late payment charge or, if applicable, any penalty interest, or any
provisions of any Mortgage Loan requiring the related Mortgagor to submit to
mandatory arbitration with respect to disputes arising thereunder or (ii) extend
the due dates for Monthly Payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period of not
greater than 180 days; provided that any extension pursuant to clause (ii)
above
shall not affect the amortization schedule of any Mortgage Loan for purposes
of
any computation hereunder, except as provided below. In the event of any such
arrangement pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Servicer shall make timely
Advances on such Mortgage Loan during such extension pursuant to Section 4.04
and in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without
modification thereof by reason of such arrangements. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that any Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment
of the Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable, the Servicer,
consistent with the standards set forth in Section 3.01, may waive, modify
or
vary any term of such Mortgage Loan (including, but not limited to,
modifications that change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of principal
or
interest or extend the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan), accept
payment from the related Mortgagor of an amount less than the Stated Principal
Balance in final satisfaction of such Mortgage Loan (such payment, a “Short
Pay-off”) or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term
or otherwise grant indulgence to any Mortgagor (any and all such waivers,
modifications, variances, forgiveness of principal or interest, postponements,
or indulgences collectively referred to herein as “forbearance”), provided,
however, that the NIMS Insurer’s prior written consent shall be required for any
modification, waiver or amendment if the aggregate number of outstanding
Mortgage Loans which have been modified, waived or amended exceeds 5% of the
Cut-off Date Principal Balance. The Servicer’s analysis supporting any
forbearance and the conclusion that any forbearance meets the standards of
Section 3.01 shall be reflected in writing in the Mortgage File.
| SECTION 3.08 |
Sub-Servicing
Accounts.
|
In
those
cases where a Sub-Servicer is servicing a Mortgage Loan pursuant to a Sub-
Servicing Agreement, the Sub-Servicer will be required to establish and maintain
one or more accounts (collectively, the “Sub-Servicing Account”). The
Sub-Servicing Account shall be an Eligible Account and shall comply with all
requirements of this Agreement relating to the Collection Account. The
Sub-Servicer shall deposit in the clearing account in which it customarily
deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its
mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than
one Business Day after the Sub-Servicer’s receipt thereof, all proceeds of
Mortgage Loans received by the Sub-Servicer less its servicing compensation
to
the extent permitted by the Sub-Servicing Agreement, and shall thereafter
deposit such amounts in the Sub-Servicing Account, in no event more than two
Business Days after the receipt of such amounts. The Sub-Servicer shall
thereafter deposit such proceeds in the Collection Account or remit such
proceeds to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account not later than
two Business Days after the deposit of such amounts in the Sub-Servicing
Account. For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have
received payments on the Mortgage Loans when the Sub-Servicer receives such
payments.
| SECTION 3.09 |
Collection
of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Servicing
Accounts.
|
To
the
extent required by the related Mortgage Note, the Servicer shall establish
and
maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, one or more accounts (the
“Escrow Accounts”), into which all Escrow Payments shall be deposited and
retained. Escrow Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts. The Servicer shall deposit
in the clearing account in which it customarily deposits payments and
collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing
activities, all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage Loans
and
shall deposit in the Escrow Accounts, in no event more than two Business Days
after the receipt of such Escrow Payments, all Escrow Payments collected on
account of the Mortgage Loans for the purpose of effecting the payment of any
such items as required under the terms of this Agreement. Withdrawals of amounts
from an Escrow Account may be made only to (i) effect payment of taxes,
assessments, hazard insurance premiums, and comparable items in a manner and
at
a time that assures that the lien priority of the Mortgage is not jeopardized
(or, with respect to the payment of taxes, in a manner and at a time that avoids
the loss of the Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure as
a
result of a tax lien); (ii) reimburse the Servicer (or a Sub-Servicer to the
extent provided in the related Sub-Servicing Agreement) out of related
collections for any Servicing Advances made pursuant to Section 3.01 (with
respect to taxes and assessments) and Section 3.14 (with respect to hazard
insurance); (iii) refund to Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be
overages; (iv) pay interest, if required and as described below, to Mortgagors
on balances in the Escrow Account; or (v) clear and terminate the Escrow Account
at the termination of the Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities in respect
of the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement in accordance with Article X. In
the
event the Servicer shall deposit in a Escrow Account any amount not required
to
be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from such Escrow
Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The Servicer
will
be responsible for the administration of the Escrow Accounts and will be
obligated to make Servicing Advances to such accounts when and as necessary
to
avoid the lapse of insurance coverage on the Mortgaged Property, or which the
Servicer knows, or in the exercise of the required standard of care of the
Servicer hereunder should know, is necessary to avoid the loss of the Mortgaged
Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure as a result of a tax lien. If
any
such payment has not been made and the Servicer receives notice of a tax lien
with respect to the Mortgage being imposed, the Servicer will, within 10
Business Days of receipt of such notice, advance or cause to be advanced funds
necessary to discharge such lien on the Mortgaged Property. As part of its
servicing duties, the Servicer or any Sub-Servicers shall pay to the Mortgagors
interest on funds in the Escrow Accounts, to the extent required by law and,
to
the extent that interest earned on funds in the Escrow Accounts is insufficient,
to pay such interest from its or their own funds, without any reimbursement
therefor. The Servicer may pay to itself any excess interest on funds in the
Escrow Accounts, to the extent such action is in conformity with the Servicing
Standard, is permitted by law and such amounts are not required to be paid
to
Mortgagors or used for any of the other purposes set forth above.
| SECTION 3.10 |
Collection
Account.
|
(a) On
behalf
of the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more
separate, segregated trust accounts (such account or accounts, the “Collection
Account”), held in trust for the benefit of the Trust Administrator, the Trustee
and the Certificateholders. On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall
deposit or cause to be deposited in the clearing account (which account must
be
an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments and collections
on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities
on a
daily basis, and in no event more than two Business Days after the Servicer’s
receipt thereof, and shall thereafter deposit in the Collection Account, in
no
event more than one Business Day after the deposit of such funds into the
clearing account, as and when received or as otherwise required hereunder,
the
following payments and collections received or made by it from and after the
Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal or interest on the related
Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date), or payments (other than
Principal Prepayments) received by it on or prior to the Cut-off Date but
allocable to a Due Period subsequent thereto:
(i) all
payments on account of principal, including Principal Prepayments (but not
Prepayment Charges), on the Mortgage Loans;
(ii) all
payments on account of interest (net of the Servicing Fee and any Prepayment
Interest Excess) on each Mortgage Loan;
(iii) all
Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and condemnation
proceeds (other than proceeds collected in respect of any particular REO
Property and amounts paid by the Servicer in connection with a purchase of
Mortgage Loans and REO Properties pursuant to Section 9.01);
(iv) any
amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.12 in connection with
any
losses realized on Permitted Investments with respect to funds held in the
Collection Account;
(v) any
amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer pursuant to the second
paragraph of Section 3.14(a) in respect of any blanket policy
deductibles;
(vi) all
proceeds of any Mortgage Loan repurchased or purchased in accordance with
Section 2.03, Section 3.16(c) or Section 9.01;
(vii) all
amounts required to be deposited in connection with Substitution Adjustments
pursuant to Section 2.03; and
(viii) all
Prepayment Charges collected by the Servicer and any Servicer Prepayment Charge
Payment Amounts in connection with the Principal Prepayment of any of the
Mortgage Loans.
The
foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Account shall be exclusive,
it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, payments in the nature of Servicing Fees, late payment charges,
assumption fees, insufficient funds charges and ancillary income (other than
Prepayment Charges) need not be deposited by the Servicer in the Collection
Account and may be retained by the Servicer as additional compensation. In
the
event the Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account any amount not
required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from
the Collection Account, any provision herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.
(b) On
behalf
of the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trust Administrator in
immediately available funds for deposit in the Distribution Account (i) on
the
Servicer Remittance Date, that portion of the Available Funds for the related
Distribution Date then on deposit in the Collection Account, the amount of
all
Prepayment Charges collected during the applicable Prepayment Period by the
Servicer and Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts in connection with
the
Principal Prepayment of any of the Mortgage Loans then on deposit in the
Collection Account and (ii) on each Business Day as of the commencement of which
the balance on deposit in the Collection Account exceeds $75,000 following
any
withdrawals pursuant to the next succeeding sentence, the amount of such excess,
but only if the Collection Account constitutes an Eligible Account solely
pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of “Eligible Account.” If the balance
on deposit in the Collection Account exceeds $75,000 as of the commencement
of
business on any Business Day and the Collection Account constitutes an Eligible
Account solely pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of “Eligible Account,”
the Servicer shall, on such Business Day, withdraw from the Collection Account
any and all amounts payable or reimbursable to the Depositor, the Servicer,
the
Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Seller or any Sub-Servicer pursuant to
Section 3.11 and shall pay such amounts to the Persons entitled
thereto.
(c) Funds
in
the Collection Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance
with the provisions set forth in Section 3.12. The Servicer shall give advance
notice to the NIMS Insurer, the Trust Administrator and the Master Servicer
of
the location of the Collection Account maintained by it when established and
prior to any change thereof. The Trust Administrator will then provide timely
written notice to the Depositor and Trustee.
(d) Funds
held in the Collection Account at any time may be delivered by the Servicer
to
the Trust Administrator for deposit in an account (which may be the Distribution
Account and must satisfy the standards for the Distribution Account as set
forth
in the definition thereof) and for all purposes of this Agreement shall be
deemed to be a part of the Collection Account; provided, however, that the
Trust
Administrator shall have the sole authority to withdraw any funds held pursuant
to this subsection (d). In the event the Servicer shall deliver to the Trust
Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account any amount not required
to
be deposited therein, it may at any time request that the Trust Administrator
withdraw such amount from the Distribution Account and remit to it any such
amount, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In addition,
the
Servicer shall deliver to the Trust Administrator from time to time for deposit,
and upon written notification from the Servicer, the Trust Administrator shall
so deposit, in the Distribution Account:
(i) any
Advances, as required pursuant to Section 4.04;
(ii) any
amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.23(d) or (f) in
connection with any REO Property;
(iii) any
amounts to be paid by the Servicer in connection with a purchase of Mortgage
Loans and REO Properties pursuant to Section 9.01; and
(iv) any
amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.24 in connection with
any
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls.
(e) The
Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account any amounts required to be
deposited pursuant to Section 3.12(b) in connection with losses realized on
Permitted Investments with respect to funds held in the Collection
Account.
| SECTION 3.11 |
Withdrawals
from the Collection Account.
|
The
Servicer shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Collection Account
for any of the following purposes, without priority, or as described in Section
4.04:
(i) to
remit
to the Trust Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account the amounts
required to be so remitted pursuant to Section 3.10(b) or permitted to be so
remitted pursuant to the first sentence of Section 3.10(d);
(ii) subject
to Section 3.16(d), to reimburse the Servicer for (a) any unreimbursed Advances
to the extent of amounts received which represent Late Collections (net of
the
related Servicing Fees), Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds on Mortgage
Loans or REO Properties with respect to which such Advances were made in
accordance with the provisions of Section 4.04; or (b) without limiting any
right of withdrawal set forth in clause (vi) below, any unreimbursed Advances
that, upon a Final Recovery Determination with respect to such Mortgage Loan,
are Nonrecoverable Advances, but only to the extent that Late Collections (net
of the related Servicing Fees), Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds
received with respect to such Mortgage Loan are insufficient to reimburse the
Servicer for such unreimbursed Advances;
(iii) subject
to Section 3.16(d), to pay the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer (A) any unpaid
Servicing Fees, (B) any unreimbursed Servicing Advances with respect to each
Mortgage Loan, but only to the extent of any Late Collections, Liquidation
Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or other amounts as may be collected by the
Servicer from a Mortgagor, or otherwise received with respect to such Mortgage
Loan or REO Property and (C) without limiting any right of withdrawal set forth
in clause (vi) below, any Servicing Advances made with respect to a Mortgage
Loan that, upon a Final Recovery Determination with respect to such Mortgage
Loan are Nonrecoverable Advances, but only to the extent that Late Collections,
Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds received with respect to such
Mortgage Loan are insufficient to reimburse the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer
for
such Servicing Advances;
(iv) to
pay to
the Servicer as servicing compensation (in addition to the Servicing Fee) on
the
Servicer Remittance Date any interest or investment income earned on funds
deposited in the Collection Account;
(v) (a)
to
pay to itself, the NIMS Insurer or the Seller, as the case may be, with respect
to each Mortgage Loan that has previously been purchased or replaced pursuant
to
Section 2.03 or Section 3.16(c) all amounts received thereon subsequent to
the
date of purchase or substitution, as the case may be and (b) to reimburse
itself, the Trust Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the
case
may be, for expenses reasonably incurred in respect of the breach or defect
giving rise to the purchase obligation under Section 2.03 that were included
in
the Purchase Price of the Mortgage Loan, including any expenses arising out
of
the enforcement of the purchase obligation;
(vi) to
reimburse the Servicer for any Advance or Servicing Advance previously made
which the Servicer has determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance in accordance
with the provisions of Section 4.04;
(vii) to
pay,
or to reimburse the Servicer for Servicing Advances in respect of, expenses
incurred in connection with any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section
3.16(b);
(viii) to
reimburse the Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Depositor for expenses
incurred by or reimbursable to the Servicer, the Master Servicer or the
Depositor, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 6.03;
(ix) to
recover amounts deposited in the Collection Account in error;
(x) to
pay
itself any Prepayment Interest Excess; and
(xi) to
clear
and terminate the Collection Account pursuant to Section 9.01.
The
Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by
Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the
Collection Account, to the extent held by or on behalf of it, pursuant to
subclauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (viii) and (ix) above. The Servicer
shall provide written notification to the NIMS Insurer and the Trust
Administrator, on or prior to the next succeeding Servicer Remittance Date,
upon
making any withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to subclause (vi)
above; provided that an Officers’ Certificate in the form described under
Section 4.04(d) shall suffice for such written notification to the Trustee
in
respect hereof.
| SECTION 3.12 |
Investment
of Funds in the Collection Account.
|
(a) The
Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining the Collection
Account (for purposes of this Section 3.12, an “Investment Account”) to invest
the funds in such Investment Account in one or more Permitted Investments
specified in such instruction bearing interest or sold at a discount, and
maturing, unless payable on demand, no later than the Business Day on which
such
funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement.
All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless payable on
demand. Any investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be made in the
name of the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as such) or in the name of
a
nominee of the Trust Administrator. The Trust Administrator shall be entitled
to
sole possession (except with respect to investment direction of funds held
in
the Collection Account and the Distribution Account and any income and gain
realized thereon) over each such investment, and any certificate or other
instrument evidencing any such investment shall be delivered directly to the
Trust Administrator or its agent, together with any document of transfer
necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Trust Administrator or
its
nominee. In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any
time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Trust
Administrator shall:
(x) consistent
with any notice required to be given thereunder, demand that payment thereon
be
made on the last day such Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder
in
an amount equal to the lesser of (1) all amounts then payable thereunder and
(2)
the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and
(y) demand
payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon determination by a
Responsible Officer of the Trust Administrator that such Permitted Investment
would not constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter
on
deposit in the Investment Account.
(b) All
income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the
Collection Account held by or on behalf of the Servicer, shall be for the
benefit of the Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal in accordance
with Section 3.11. The Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account the
amount of any loss of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted
Investment made with funds in such accounts immediately upon realization of
such
loss.
(c) Except
as
otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the
making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or if a default occurs
in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment, the Trust
Administrator may and, subject to Section 8.01 and Section 8.02(a)(v), upon
the
request of the Holders of Certificates representing more than 50% of the Voting
Rights allocated to any Class of Certificates, shall take such action as may
be
appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution
and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.
| SECTION 3.13 |
[Reserved].
|
| SECTION 3.14 |
Maintenance
of Hazard Insurance and Errors and Omissions and Fidelity
Coverage.
|
(a) The
Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan fire insurance
with
extended coverage on the Mortgaged Property in an amount which is at least
equal
to the least of (i) the current Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan, (ii)
the amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or loss to the
improvements that are a part of such property on a replacement cost basis,
in
each case in an amount not less than such amount as is necessary to avoid the
application of any coinsurance clause contained in the related fire insurance
policy, (iii) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part
of such Mortgaged Property, and (iv) the amount determined by applicable
federal or state law, in each case in an amount not less than such amount as
is
necessary to avoid the application of any coinsurance clause contained in the
related fire insurance policy. The Servicer shall also cause to be maintained
hazard insurance with extended coverage on each REO Property in an amount which
is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the
improvements which are a part of such property and (ii) the outstanding
Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan at the time it became an REO
Property. The Servicer will comply in the performance of this Agreement with
all
reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any such hazard
policies. Any amounts to be collected by the Servicer under any such policies
(other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property
subject to the related Mortgage or amounts to be released to the Mortgagor
in
accordance with the procedures that the Servicer would follow in servicing
loans
held for its own account, subject to the terms and conditions of the related
Mortgage and Mortgage Note) shall be deposited in the Collection Account,
subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.11, if received in respect of a
Mortgage Loan, or in the REO Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section
3.23, if received in respect of an REO Property. Any cost incurred by the
Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of
calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid
Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms
of such Mortgage Loan so permit. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake
or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor other than
pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in
force and as shall require such additional insurance. If the Mortgaged Property
or REO Property is at any time in an area identified in the Federal
Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood
hazards and flood insurance has been made available, the Servicer will cause
to
be maintained a flood insurance policy in respect thereof. Such flood insurance
shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the minimum amount
required, under the terms of coverage, to compensate for any damage or loss
on a
replacement cost basis (or the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage
Loan if replacement cost coverage is not available for the type of building
insured) and (ii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under
the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended. If at any time during
the
term of the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer determines in accordance with applicable
law and pursuant to the Federal Emergency Management Agency Guides that a
Mortgaged Property is located in a special flood hazard area and is not covered
by flood insurance or is covered in an amount less than the amount required
by
the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, the Servicer shall notify
the related Mortgagor to obtain such flood insurance coverage, and if said
Mortgagor fails to obtain the required flood insurance coverage within
forty-five (45) days after such notification, the Servicer shall immediately
force place the required flood insurance on the Mortgagor’s behalf. Any
out-of-pocket expense or advance made by the Servicer on such force placed
flood
insurance coverage shall be deemed a Servicing Advance.
In
the
event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy insuring
against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans, it shall conclusively be
deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in the first two sentences
of this Section 3.14, it being understood and agreed that such policy may
contain a deductible clause on terms substantially equivalent to those
commercially available and maintained by competent servicers, in which case
the
Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the
related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with the first
two
sentences of this Section 3.14, and there shall have been one or more losses
which would have been covered by such policy, deposit to the Collection Account
from its own funds the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy
because of such deductible clause. In connection with its activities as servicer
of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf
of
itself, the Depositor, the Trustee and Certificateholders, claims under any
such
blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such
policy.
(b) The
Servicer shall keep in force during the term of this Agreement a policy or
policies of insurance covering errors and omissions for failure in the
performance of the Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement, which policy or
policies shall be in such form and amount that would meet the requirements
of
Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac if it were the purchaser of the Mortgage Loans, unless
the Servicer has obtained a waiver of such requirements from Xxxxxx Mae or
Xxxxxxx Mac. The Servicer shall provide the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, upon
request, with copies of such insurance policies and fidelity bond. The Servicer
shall also maintain a fidelity bond in the form and amount that would meet
the
requirements of Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac, unless the Servicer has obtained
a
waiver of such requirements from Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac. The Servicer shall
be deemed to have complied with this provision if an Affiliate of the Servicer
has such errors and omissions and fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms
of
such insurance policy or fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends
to the Servicer. Any such errors and omissions policy and fidelity bond shall by
its terms not be cancelable without thirty days’ prior written notice to the
Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the NIMS Insurer. The Servicer shall also
cause each Sub-Servicer to maintain a policy of insurance covering errors and
omissions and a fidelity bond which would meet such requirements.
(c) The
Servicer shall provide to the Master Servicer evidence of the authorization
of
the person signing any certification, statement, copy or other evidence of
any
fidelity bond, errors and omissions policy, financial information and reports
or
such other information related to the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer or to the
Servicer’s or such Sub-Servicer’s performance hereunder.
| SECTION 3.15 |
Enforcement
of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption
Agreements.
|
The
Servicer will, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or prospective
conveyance of any Mortgaged Property by any Mortgagor (whether by absolute
conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor remains
or
is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the Mortgage), exercise
its
rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under the “due-on-sale”
clause, if any, applicable thereto; provided, however, that the Servicer shall
not be required to take such action if in its sole business judgment the
Servicer believes it is not in the best interests of the Trust Fund and shall
not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law from doing so. If the Servicer
reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such
“due-on-sale” clause, or if any of the other conditions set forth in the proviso
to the preceding sentence apply, the Servicer will enter into an assumption
and
modification agreement from or with the person to whom such property has been
conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes
liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted by applicable state
law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. The Servicer is also authorized,
to
the extent permitted under the related Mortgage Note, 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
the Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note, provided that no
such
substitution shall be effective unless such person satisfies the then current
underwriting criteria of the Servicer for mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage
Loans. In connection with any assumption or substitution, the Servicer shall
apply such underwriting standards and follow such practices and procedures
as
shall be normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities and
as it
applies to other mortgage loans owned solely by it. The Servicer shall not
take
or enter into any assumption and modification agreement, however, unless (to
the
extent practicable in the circumstances) it shall have received confirmation,
in
writing, of the continued effectiveness of any applicable hazard insurance
policy. Any fee collected by the Servicer in respect of an assumption or
substitution of liability agreement will be retained by the Servicer as
additional servicing compensation. In connection with any such assumption,
no
material term of the Mortgage Note (including but not limited to the related
Mortgage Rate and the amount of the Monthly Payment) may be amended or modified,
except as otherwise required pursuant to the terms thereof. The Servicer shall
notify the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the
Custodian that any such substitution or assumption agreement has been completed
by forwarding to the Custodian the executed original of such substitution or
assumption agreement, which document shall be added to the related Mortgage
File
and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to
the
same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part
thereof.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this Agreement, 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 by the terms of the Mortgage Note or any assumption which
the Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason
whatsoever. For purposes of this Section 3.15, the term “assumption” is deemed
to also include a sale (of the Mortgaged Property) subject to the Mortgage
that
is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability
agreement.

Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.

(a) The
Servicer shall, consistent with the servicing standard set forth in Section
3.01, foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties
securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and
as
to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent
payments pursuant to Section 3.07. The Servicer shall be responsible for all
costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however,
that such costs and expenses will be recoverable as Servicing Advances by the
Servicer as contemplated in Section 3.11 and Section 3.23. The foregoing is
subject to the provision that, in any case in which Mortgaged Property shall
have suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Servicer shall not be required
to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such property unless it shall
determine in its discretion that such restoration will increase the proceeds
of
liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself for
such
expenses.
(b) Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.16 or any other provision of this
Agreement, with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Servicer has
received actual notice of, or has actual knowledge of, the presence of any
toxic
or hazardous substance on the related Mortgaged Property, the Servicer shall
not, on behalf of the Trustee, either (i) obtain title to such Mortgaged
Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, or (ii)
otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action with respect to,
such
Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action, the Trustee, the Trust
Fund, the Trust Administrator, the Servicer or the Certificateholders would
be
considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an
“owner” or “operator” of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980,
as
amended from time to time, or any comparable law, unless the Servicer has also
previously determined, based on its reasonable judgment and a report prepared
by
a Person who regularly conducts environmental audits using customary industry
standards, that:
(i) such
Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or,
if
not, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund to take
such actions as are necessary to bring the Mortgaged Property into compliance
therewith; and
(ii) there
are
no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating to the use,
management or disposal of any hazardous substances, hazardous materials,
hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials for which investigation, testing,
monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any
federal, state or local law or regulation, or that if any such materials are
present for which such action could be required, that it would be in the best
economic interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions with respect to the
affected Mortgaged Property.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if such environmental audit reveals, or if the Servicer has
actual knowledge or notice, that such Mortgaged Property contains such wastes
or
substances, the Servicer shall not foreclose or accept a deed in lieu of
foreclosure without the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer.
The
cost
of the environmental audit report contemplated by this Section 3.16 shall be
advanced by the Servicer, subject to the Servicer’s right to be reimbursed
therefor from the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.11(a), such right
of reimbursement being prior to the rights of Certificateholders to receive
any
amount in the Collection Account received in respect of the affected Mortgage
Loan or other Mortgage Loans.
If
the
Servicer determines, as described above, that it is in the best economic
interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions as are necessary to bring any
such Mortgaged Property into compliance with applicable environmental laws,
or
to take such action with respect to the containment, clean-up or remediation
of
hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes or petroleum-based
materials affecting any such Mortgaged Property, then the Servicer shall take
such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund;
provided that any amounts disbursed by the Servicer pursuant to this Section
3.16(b) shall constitute Servicing Advances, subject to Section 4.04(d). The
cost of any such compliance, containment, cleanup or remediation shall be
advanced by the Servicer, subject to the Servicer’s right to be reimbursed
therefor from the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.11(a), such right
of reimbursement being prior to the rights of Certificateholders to receive
any
amount in the Collection Account received in respect of the affected Mortgage
Loan or other Mortgage Loans.
(c) The
Servicer may, at its option, purchase a Mortgage Loan which has become 90 or
more days delinquent or for which the Servicer has accepted a deed in lieu
of
foreclosure. Prior to purchase pursuant to this Section 3.16(c), the Servicer
shall be required to continue to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.04. The
Servicer shall not use any procedure in selecting Mortgage Loans to be
repurchased which is materially adverse to the interests of the
Certificateholders. The Servicer shall purchase such delinquent Mortgage Loan
at
a price equal to the Purchase Price of such Mortgage Loan. Any such purchase
of
a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.16(c) shall be accomplished by
deposit in the Collection Account of the amount of the Purchase Price. Upon
the
satisfaction of the requirements set forth in Section 3.17(a), the Trustee
shall
immediately deliver the Mortgage File and any related documentation to the
Servicer and will execute such documents provided to it as are necessary to
convey the Mortgage Loan to the Servicer.
(d) Proceeds
received in connection with any Final Recovery Determination, as well as any
recovery resulting from a partial collection of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation
Proceeds or condemnation proceeds, in respect of any Mortgage Loan, will be
applied in the following order of priority: first, to unpaid Servicing Fees;
second, to reimburse the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer for any related
unreimbursed Servicing Advances pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iii) and Advances
pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(ii); third, to accrued and unpaid interest on the
Mortgage Loan, to the date of the Final Recovery Determination, or to the Due
Date prior to the Distribution Date on which such amounts are to be distributed
if not in connection with a Final Recovery Determination; and fourth, as a
recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan. The portion of the recovery so
allocated to unpaid Servicing Fees shall be reimbursed to the Servicer or any
Sub-Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iii).
| SECTION 3.17 |
Trustee
to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage
Files.
|
(a) Upon
the
payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Servicer of a
notification that payment in full shall be escrowed in a manner customary for
such purposes, the Servicer will promptly notify the Custodian, or the Master
Servicer may notify the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, by a Request for
Release in the form of Exhibit E (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 Collection Account
pursuant to Section 3.10 have been or will be so deposited) of a Servicing
Officer and shall request that the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, deliver
to it the Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such certification and request, the
Custodian shall within five Business Days release the related Mortgage File
to
the Servicer (at the Servicer’s expense), and the Servicer is authorized to
cause the removal from the registration on the MERS® System of any such
Mortgage, if applicable, and to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee
and the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of
satisfaction or cancellation or of partial or full release. No expenses incurred
in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall
be chargeable to the Collection Account or the Distribution
Account.
(b) From
time
to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage
Loan, including, for this purpose, collection under any insurance policy
relating to the Mortgage Loans, the Custodian shall, upon request of the
Servicer and delivery to the Custodian of a Request for Release in the form
of
Exhibit E, release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer, and the Trustee
shall, at the written direction of the Servicer, execute such documents as
shall
be necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings. Such Request for
Release shall obligate the Servicer to return each and every document previously
requested from the Mortgage File to the Custodian 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
Collection Account or the 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, on behalf of the Trustee, a
certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of
the
Person to which such 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 and that all
amounts received or to be received in connection with such liquidation that
are
required to be deposited into the Collection Account have been so deposited,
or
that such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Property, a copy of the Request for
Release shall be released by the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, to the
Servicer.
(c) Upon
written certification of a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall execute and
deliver to the Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or
other documents reasonably necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in
respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought to obtain
judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or to obtain
a
deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by
the
Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity. Each
such
certification shall include a request that such pleadings or documents be
executed by the Trustee and a statement as to the reason such documents or
pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the
Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except
for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or
trustee’s sale.
| SECTION 3.18 |
Servicing
Compensation.
|
As
compensation for the activities of the Servicer hereunder, the Servicer shall
be
entitled to the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan payable solely
from payments of interest in respect of such Mortgage Loan, subject to Section
3.24. In addition, the Servicer shall be entitled to recover unpaid Servicing
Fees out of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or condemnation proceeds
to
the extent permitted by Section 3.11(a)(iii) and out of amounts derived from
the
operation and sale of an REO Property to the extent permitted by Section 3.23.
Except as provided in Section 3.27, the right to receive the Servicing Fee
may
not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer
of
all of the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement;
provided, however, that the Servicer may pay from the Servicing Fee any amounts
due to a Sub-Servicer pursuant to a Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into under
Section 3.02.
Additional
servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, late payment charges,
insufficient funds charges, ancillary income or otherwise (other than Prepayment
Charges) shall be retained by the Servicer only to the extent such fees or
charges are received by the Servicer. The Servicer shall also be entitled
pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iv) to withdraw from the Collection Account and
pursuant to Section 3.23(b) to withdraw from any REO Account, as additional
servicing compensation, interest or other income earned on deposits therein,
subject to Section 3.12 and Section 3.24. The Servicer shall be required to
pay
all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities
hereunder (including premiums for the insurance required by Section 3.14, to
the
extent such premiums are not paid by the related Mortgagors or by a
Sub-Servicer, and servicing compensation of each Sub-Servicer) and shall not
be
entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided
herein.
The
Servicer shall be entitled to any Prepayment Interest Excess, which it may
withdraw from the Collection Account pursuant to Section
3.11(a)(ix).
| SECTION 3.19 |
Reports;
Collection Account Statements.
|
Not
later
than thirty days after each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall forward,
upon
request, to the Trust Administrator, the Trustee, the Depositor or the NIMS
Insurer, the most current available bank statement for the Collection Account.
Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Trust Administrator to any
Certificateholder and to any Person identified to the Trust Administrator as
a
prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon request at the expense of the
requesting party, provided such statement is delivered by the Servicer to the
Trust Administrator.
| SECTION 3.20 |
Statement
as to Compliance.
|
The
Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator shall deliver (or
otherwise make available) (and the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator
shall cause any Servicing Function Participant engaged by it to deliver) to
the
Depositor and the Trust Administrator on or before March 1 (with a ten-calendar
day cure period) of each year, commencing in March 2007, an Officer’s
Certificate stating, as to the signer thereof, that (a) a review of such party’s
activities during the preceding calendar year or portion thereof and of such
party’s performance under this Agreement, or such other applicable agreement in
the case of a Servicing Function Participant, has been made under such officer’s
supervision and (b) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such
review, such party has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement,
or
such other applicable agreement in the case of a Servicing Function Participant,
in all material respects throughout such year or portion thereof, or, if there
has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect,
specifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature and status
thereof.
The
Master Servicer shall include all annual statements of compliance received
by it
from the Servicer with its own annual statement of compliance to be submitted
to
the Trust Administrator pursuant to this Section.
In
the
event the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or any
Servicing Function Participant engaged by any such party is terminated or
resigns pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or any applicable agreement
in
the case of a Servicing Function Participant, as the case may be, such party
shall provide an Officer’s Certificate pursuant to this Section 3.20 or to such
applicable agreement, as the case may be, notwithstanding any such termination,
assignment or resignation.
Any
failure by the Servicer to deliver the Annual Statement of Compliance when
and
as required under this Section 3.20, including any failure by the Servicer
to
identify any Subcontractor “participating in the servicing function” within the
meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, which continues unremedied for ten
calendar days after the date on which such Annual Statement of Compliance was
required to be delivered shall (subject
to the provisions of Section 7.01(a)(v)) constitute
an Servicer Event of Termination with respect to the Servicer under this
Agreement, and shall entitle the Trustee, pursuant to Section 7.01(a), to
terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer as servicer under this
Agreement without payment (notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary) of any compensation to the Servicer; provided that to the extent
that
any provision of this Agreement expressly provides for the survival of certain
rights or obligations following termination of the Servicer as servicer, such
provision shall be given effect.
Each
of
the Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator (each, an
“Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and their officers, directors and
Affiliates, as applicable, from and against any actual losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related
costs, judgments and other costs and expenses that such Person may sustain
based
upon a breach of the obligations of such Indemnifying Party under this Section
3.20.
| SECTION 3.21 |
Assessments
of Compliance and Attestation
Reports.
|
(a) By
March
1 (with a ten-calendar day cure period) of each year, commencing in March 2007,
the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the Trustee
(in
its capacity as Custodian), each at its own expense, shall furnish or otherwise
make available, and each such party shall cause any Servicing Function
Participant engaged by it to furnish, each at its own expense, to the Trust
Administrator and the Depositor, a report on an assessment of compliance with
the Relevant Servicing Criteria that contains (i) a statement by such party
of
its responsibility for assessing compliance with the Relevant Servicing
Criteria, (ii) a statement that such party used the Relevant Servicing Criteria
to assess compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria, (iii) such party’s
assessment of compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria as of and for
the
fiscal year covered by the Form 10-K required to be filed pursuant to Section
4.05, including, if there has been any material instance of noncompliance with
the Relevant Servicing Criteria, a discussion of each such failure and the
nature and status thereof and (iv) a statement that a registered public
accounting firm has issued an attestation report on such party’s assessment of
compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria as of and for such period.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, as to the Trustee, an assessment of compliance
is
not required to be delivered unless it is required as part of the Form 10-K
with
respect to the Trust Fund.
No
later
than the end of each fiscal year for the Trust for which a 10-K is required
to
be filed, the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall each forward to the Trust
Administrator and the Depositor the name of each Servicing Function Participant
engaged by it and what Relevant Servicing Criteria will be addressed in the
report on assessment of compliance prepared by such Servicing Function
Participant (provided, however, that the Master Servicer need not provide such
information to the Trust Administrator so long as the Master Servicer and the
Trust Administrator are the same Person). When the Master Servicer, the Trust
Administrator and Trustee (or any Servicing Function Participant engaged by
them) submit their assessments to the Trust Administrator, such parties will
also at such time include the assessment and attestation pursuant to Section
3.21(b) of each Servicing Function Participant engaged by it.
Promptly
after receipt of each such report on assessment of compliance, (i) the Depositor
shall review each such report and, if applicable, consult with the Master
Servicer, the Trust Administrator and any Servicing Function Participant engaged
by such parties as to the nature of any material instance of noncompliance
with
the Relevant Servicing Criteria by each such party, and (ii) the Trust
Administrator shall confirm that the assessments, taken as a whole, address
all
of the Servicing Criteria and taken individually address the Relevant Servicing
Criteria for each party as set forth on Exhibit S in respect of the Servcier
and
notify the Depositor of any exceptions.
The
Master Servicer shall include all annual reports on assessment of compliance
received by it from the Servicer with its own assessment of compliance to be
submitted to the Trust Administrator pursuant to this Section.
In
the
event the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or any Servicing Function
Participant engaged by any such party is terminated, assigns its rights and
obligations under, or resigns pursuant to, the terms of this Agreement, or
any
other applicable agreement, as the case may be, such party shall provide a
report on assessment of compliance pursuant to this Section 3.21(a), or to
such
other applicable agreement, notwithstanding any such termination, assignment
or
resignation.
(b) By
March
1 (with a ten-calendar day cure period) of each year, commencing in March 2007,
the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the Trustee
(in
its capacity as Custodian), each at its own expense, shall cause, and each
such
party shall cause any Servicing Function Participant engaged by it to cause,
each at its own expense, a registered public accounting firm (which may also
render other services to the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust
Administrator, or such other Servicing Function Participants, as the case may
be) and that is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants to furnish an attestation report to the Trust Administrator and
the
Depositor, to the effect that (i) it has obtained a representation regarding
certain matters from the management of such party, which includes an assertion
that such party has complied with the Relevant Servicing Criteria, and (ii)
on
the basis of an examination conducted by such firm in accordance with standards
for attestation engagements issued or adopted by the PCAOB, it is expressing
an
opinion as to whether such party’s compliance with the Relevant Servicing
Criteria was fairly stated in all material respects, or it cannot express an
overall opinion regarding such party’s assessment of compliance with the
Relevant Servicing Criteria. In the event that an overall opinion cannot be
expressed, such registered public accounting firm shall state in such report
why
it was unable to express such an opinion. Such report must be available for
general use and not contain restricted use language.
Promptly
after receipt of each such assessment of compliance and attestation report,
the
Trust Administrator shall confirm that each assessment submitted pursuant to
Section 3.21(a) is coupled with an attestation meeting the requirements of
this
Section and notify the Depositor of any exceptions.
The
Master Servicer shall include each such attestation furnished to it by the
Servicer with its own attestation to be submitted to the Trust Administrator
pursuant to this Section.
In
the
event the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, any Servicer or any
Servicing Function Participant engaged by any such party, is terminated, assigns
its rights and duties under, or resigns pursuant to the terms of, this
Agreement, or any applicable sub-servicing agreement, as the case may be, such
party shall cause a registered public accounting firm to provide an attestation
pursuant to this Section 3.21(b), or such other applicable agreement,
notwithstanding any such termination, assignment or resignation.
Any
failure by the Servicer to deliver the Assessment of Compliance and Attestation
Reports when and as required under this Section 3.21, including any failure
by
the Servicer to identify any Subcontractor “participating in the servicing
function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, which continues
unremedied for ten calendar days after the date on which such Annual Statement
of Compliance was required to be delivered shall (subject to the provisions
of
Section 7.01(a)(v)) constitute an Servicer Event of Termination with respect
to
the Servicer under this Agreement, and shall entitle the Trustee, pursuant
to
Section 7.01(a), to terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer as
servicer under this Agreement without payment (notwithstanding anything in
this
Agreement to the contrary) of any compensation to the Servicer; provided that
to
the extent that any provision of this Agreement expressly provides for the
survival of certain rights or obligations following termination of the Servicer
as servicer, such provision shall be given effect.
Each
of
the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trustee (in its capacity as Custodian)
and the Trust Administrator shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor,
the
Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator and their officers, directors and
Affiliates from and against any actual losses, damages, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments
and other costs and expenses that such Person may sustain based upon a breach
of
the obligations of such Indemnifying Party under this Section 3.21.
| SECTION 3.22 |
Access
to Certain Documentation.
|
The
Servicer shall provide to the Office of the Controller of the Currency, the
Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC, and any other federal or state banking
or insurance regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any
Certificateholder, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans
required by applicable laws and regulations. Such access shall be afforded
without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during normal business
hours at the offices of the Servicer designated by it. In addition, access
to
the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans required by applicable laws
and
regulations will be provided to such Certificateholder, the Trustee, the Trust
Administrator, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer and to any Person
identified to the Servicer as a prospective transferee of a Certificate subject
to the execution of a confidentiality agreement in form and substance
satisfactory to the servicer, upon reasonable request during normal business
hours at the offices of the Servicer designated by it at the expense of the
Person requesting such access. Nothing in this Section 3.22 shall derogate
from
the obligation of any such party to observe any applicable law prohibiting
disclosure of information regarding the Mortgagors and the failure of any such
party to provide access as provided in this Section as a result of such
obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.22.
| SECTION 3.23 |
Title,
Management and Disposition of REO
Property.
|
(a) The
deed
or certificate of sale of any REO Property shall, subject to applicable laws,
be
taken in the name of the Trustee, or its nominee, in trust for the benefit
of
the Certificateholders. The Servicer, on behalf of REMIC 1, shall sell any
REO
Property as soon as practicable and in any event no later than the end of the
third full taxable year after the taxable year in which such REMIC acquires
ownership of such REO Property for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code
or
request from the Internal Revenue Service, no later than 60 days before the
day
on which the three-year grace period would otherwise expire, an extension of
such three-year period, unless the Servicer shall have delivered to the Trustee,
the Trust Administrator and the NIMS Insurer an Opinion of Counsel acceptable
to
the NIMS Insurer and addressed to the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the
NIMS
Insurer and the Depositor, to the effect that the holding by the REMIC of such
REO Property subsequent to three years after its acquisition will not result
in
the imposition on the REMIC of taxes on “prohibited transactions” thereof, as
defined in Section 860F of the Code, or cause any of the REMICs created
hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC under Federal law at any time that
any
Certificates are outstanding. The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect
and
operate each REO Property for the Certificateholders solely for the purpose
of
its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such REO
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 any of the REMICs
created hereunder of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning
of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code, or any “net income from foreclosure
property” which is subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions.
(b) The
Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection
with the operation of any REO Property separate and apart from its own funds
and
general assets and shall establish and maintain with respect to REO Properties
an account held in trust for the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders (the “REO Account”), which shall be an Eligible Account. The
Servicer shall be permitted to allow the Collection Account to serve as the
REO
Account, subject to separate ledgers for each REO Property. The Servicer shall
be entitled to retain or withdraw any interest income paid on funds deposited
in
the REO Account.
(c) The
Servicer shall have full power and authority, subject only to the specific
requirements and prohibitions of this Agreement, to do any and all things in
connection with any REO Property as are consistent with the manner in which
the
Servicer manages and operates similar property owned by the Servicer or any
of
its Affiliates, all on such terms and for such period as the Servicer deems
to
be in the best interests of Certificateholders. In connection therewith, the
Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited in the clearing account (which
account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments
and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing
activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than two Business Days after
the Servicer’s receipt thereof, and shall thereafter deposit in the REO Account,
in no event more than one Business Day after the deposit of such funds into
the
clearing account, all revenues received by it with respect to an REO Property
and shall withdraw therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation,
management and maintenance of such REO Property including, without
limitation:
(i) all
insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such REO Property;
(ii) all
real
estate taxes and assessments in respect of such REO Property that may result
in
the imposition of a lien thereon; and
(iii) all
costs
and expenses necessary to maintain such REO Property.
To
the
extent that amounts on deposit in the REO Account with respect to an REO
Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through
(iii) above with respect to such REO Property, the Servicer shall advance from
its own funds such amount as is necessary for such purposes if, but only if,
the
Servicer would make such advances if the Servicer owned the REO Property and
if
in the Servicer’s judgment, the payment of such amounts will be recoverable from
the rental or sale of the REO Property.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, none of the Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee
shall:
(i) authorize
the Trust Fund to enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with respect to
any
REO Property, if the New Lease by its terms will give rise to any income that
does not constitute Rents from Real Property;
(ii) authorize
any amount to be received or accrued under any New Lease other than amounts
that
will constitute Rents from Real Property;
(iii) authorize
any construction on any REO Property, other than the completion of a building
or
other improvement thereon, and then only if more than ten percent of the
construction of such building or other improvement was completed before default
on the related Mortgage Loan became imminent, all within the meaning of Section
856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or
(iv) authorize
any Person to Directly Operate any REO Property on any date more than 90 days
after its date of acquisition by the Trust Fund;
unless,
in any such case, the Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel, provided
to
the Trust Administrator, the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer to the effect
that such action will not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as
“foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the at any
time that it is held by the Trust Fund, in which case the Servicer may take
such
actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel.
The
Servicer may contract with any Independent Contractor for the operation and
management of any REO Property; provided that:
(i) the
terms
and conditions of any such contract shall not be inconsistent
herewith;
(ii) any
such
contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the
Independent Contractor pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with
the operation and management of such REO Property, including those listed above
and remit all related revenues (net of such costs and expenses) to the Servicer
as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty days following the
receipt thereof by such Independent Contractor;
(iii) none
of
the provisions of this Section 3.23(c) relating to any such contract or to
actions taken through any such Independent Contractor shall be deemed to relieve
the Servicer of any of its duties and obligations to the Trustee on behalf
of
the Certificateholders with respect to the operation and management of any
such
REO Property; and
(iv) the
Servicer shall be obligated with respect thereto to the same extent as if it
alone were performing all duties and obligations in connection with the
operation and management of such REO Property.
The
Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any Independent
Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations
hereunder for indemnification of the Servicer by such Independent Contractor,
and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such
indemnification. The Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it
to
any such Independent Contractor, irrespective of whether the Servicer’s
compensation pursuant to Section 3.18 is sufficient to pay such
fees.
(d) In
addition to the withdrawals permitted under Section 3.23(c), the Servicer may
from time to time make withdrawals from the REO Account for any REO Property:
(i) to pay itself or any Sub-Servicer unpaid Servicing Fees in respect of the
related Mortgage Loan; and (ii) to reimburse itself or any Sub-Servicer for
unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Advances made in respect of such REO
Property or the related Mortgage Loan. Any income from the related REO Property
received during any calendar months prior to a Final Recovery Determination,
net
of any withdrawals made pursuant to Section 3.23(c) or this Section 3.23(d),
shall be withdrawn by the Servicer from each REO Account maintained by it and
remitted to the Trust Administrator for deposit into the Distribution Account
in
accordance with Section 3.10(d)(ii) on the Servicer Remittance Date relating
to
a Final Recovery Determination with respect to such Mortgage Loan, for
distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance with Section
4.01.
(e) Subject
to the time constraints set forth in Section 3.23(a), each REO Disposition
shall
be carried out by the Servicer at such price and upon such terms and conditions
as the Servicer shall deem necessary or advisable, as shall be normal and usual
in its general servicing activities for similar properties.
(f) The
proceeds from the REO Disposition, net of any amount required by law to be
remitted to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan and net of any payment
or reimbursement to the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer as provided above, shall
be
remitted to the Trust Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account
in
accordance with Section 3.10(d)(ii) on the Servicer Remittance Date in the
month
following the receipt thereof for distribution on the related Distribution
Date
in accordance with Section 4.01. Any REO Disposition shall be for cash only
(unless changes in the REMIC Provisions made subsequent to the Startup Day
allow
a sale for other consideration).
(g) The
Servicer shall file information returns with respect to the receipt of mortgage
interest received in a trade or business, reports of foreclosures and
abandonments of any Mortgaged Property and cancellation of indebtedness income
with respect to any Mortgaged Property as required by Sections 6050H, 6050J
and
6050P of the Code, respectively. Such reports shall be in form and substance
sufficient to meet the reporting requirements imposed by such Sections 6050H,
6050J and 6050P of the Code.
| SECTION 3.24 |
Obligations
of the Servicer in Respect of Prepayment Interest
Shortfalls.
|
Not
later
than 1:00 p.m. New York time on each Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer
shall deliver to the Trust Administrator for deposit into the Distribution
Account an amount (“Compensating Interest”) equal to the lesser of (A) the
aggregate of the Prepayment Interest Shortfalls for the related Distribution
Date and (B) its aggregate Servicing Fee received in the related Due Period.
The
Servicer shall not have the right to reimbursement for any amounts remitted
to
the Trust Administrator in respect of Compensating Interest. Such amounts so
remitted shall be included in the Available Funds and distributed therewith
on
the next Distribution Date. The Servicer shall not be obligated to pay
Compensating Interest with respect to Relief Act Interest
Shortfalls.
| SECTION 3.25 |
Obligations
of the Servicer in Respect of Monthly Payments.
|
In
the
event that a shortfall in any collection on or liability with respect to any
Mortgage Loan results from or is attributable to adjustments to Mortgage Rates,
Monthly Payments or Stated Principal Balances that were made by the Servicer
in
a manner not consistent with the terms of the related Mortgage Note and this
Agreement, the Servicer, upon discovery or receipt of notice thereof,
immediately shall deliver to the Trust Administrator for deposit in the
Distribution Account from its own funds the amount of any such shortfall and
shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Trust
Administrator, the Depositor and any successor servicer in respect of any such
liability. Such indemnities shall survive the termination or discharge of this
Agreement. If amounts paid by the Servicer with respect to any Mortgage Loan
pursuant to this Section 3.25 are subsequently recovered from the related
Mortgagor, the Servicer shall be permitted to reimburse itself for such amounts
paid by it pursuant to this Section 3.25 from such recoveries.
| SECTION 3.26 |
Net
WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account.
|
No
later
than the Closing Date, the Trust Administrator shall establish and maintain
with
itself a separate, segregated trust account titled, “Net WAC Rate Carryover
Reserve Account, Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee, in trust
for
registered Holders of Fremont Home Loan Trust 2006-2, Asset-Backed Certificates,
Series 2006-2.” All amounts deposited in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve
Account shall be distributed to the Holders of the Fixed Rate Certificates
and
the Floating Rate Certificates in the manner set forth in Section
4.01(d).
On
each
Distribution Date as to which there is a Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount payable
to the Fixed Rate Certificates and the Floating Rate Certificates, the Trust
Administrator has been directed by the Class C Certificateholders to, and
therefore will, deposit into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account the
amounts described in Section 4.01(c)(v), rather than distributing such amounts
to the Class C Certificateholders. In addition, any payments received by the
Trust Administrator under the Cap Contract on each Distribution Date will be
deposited into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account. On each such
Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator shall hold all such amounts for
the
benefit of the Holders of the Fixed Rate Certificates and the Floating Rate
Certificates, and will distribute such amounts to the Holders of the Fixed
Rate
Certificates and the Floating Rate Certificates in the amounts and priorities
set forth in Section 4.01(d).
On
each
Distribution Date, any amounts remaining in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve
Account (representing payments received by the Trust Administrator under the
Cap
Contract) after the payment of any Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts on the Fixed
Rate Certificates and the Floating Rate Certificates for such Distribution
Date,
shall be payable to the Trust Administrator as additional compensation. For
so
long as any Floating Rate Certificates are beneficially owned by the Depositor
or any of its Affiliates, the Depositor shall refund or cause such Affiliate
to
refund any amounts paid to it under the Cap Contract to the Trust Administrator
who shall, pursuant to the terms of the Cap Contract, return such amount to
the
counterparty thereunder.
It
is the
intention of the parties hereto that, for federal and state income and state
and
local franchise tax purposes, the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account be
disregarded as an entity separate from the Holder of the Class C Certificates
unless and until the date when either (a) there is more than one Class C
Certificateholder or (b) any Class of Certificates in addition to the Class
C
Certificates is recharacterized as an equity interest in the Net WAC Rate
Carryover Reserve Account for federal income tax purposes, in which case it
is
the intention of the parties hereto that, for federal and state income and
state
and local franchise tax purposes, the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account
be
treated as a partnership; provided, that the Trust Administrator shall not
be
required to prepare and file partnership tax returns in respect of such
partnership unless it receives additional reasonable compensation (not to exceed
$10,000 per year) for the preparation of such filings, written notification
recognizing the creation of a partnership agreement or comparable documentation
evidencing the partnership, if any. All amounts deposited into the Net WAC
Rate
Carryover Reserve Account (other than amounts received under the Cap Contract)
shall be treated as amounts distributed by REMIC 3 to the Holder of the Class
C
Interest and by REMIC 4 to the Holder of the Class C Certificates. The Net
WAC
Rate Carryover Reserve Account will be an “outside reserve fund” within the
meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h). Upon the termination of
the
Trust, or the payment in full of the Fixed Rate Certificates and the Floating
Rate Certificates, all amounts remaining on deposit in the Net WAC Rate
Carryover Reserve Account will be released by the Trust and distributed to
the
Holders of the Class C Certificates or their designee. The Net WAC Rate
Carryover Reserve Account will be part of the Trust but not part of any REMIC
and any payments to the Holders of the Fixed Rate Certificates and the Floating
Rate Certificates of Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts will not be payments with
respect to a “regular interest” in a REMIC within the meaning of Code Section
860(G)(a)(1).
By
accepting a Class C Certificate, each Class C Certificateholder hereby agrees
to
direct the Trust Administrator, and the Trust Administrator hereby is directed,
to deposit into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account the amounts described
above on each Distribution Date as to which there is any Net WAC Rate Carryover
Amount rather than distributing such amounts to the Class C Certificateholders.
By accepting a Class C Certificate, each Class C Certificateholder further
agrees that such direction is given for good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged by such
acceptance.
Amounts
on deposit in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account shall remain
uninvested.
For
federal tax return and information reporting, the right of the Holders of the
Fixed Rate Certificates and Floating Rate Certificates to receive payments
from
the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account in respect of any Net WAC Cap Carry
Forward Amounts shall be assigned a value of $262,000.
| SECTION 3.27 |
Advance
Facility
|
The
Servicer, with the consent of the NIMS Insurer, is hereby authorized to enter
into a financing or other facility (any such arrangement, an “Advance Facility”)
under which (1) the Servicer sells, assigns or pledges to another Person
(together with such Person’s successors and assigns, an “Advancing Person”) the
Servicer’s rights under this Agreement to be reimbursed for any Advances or
Servicing Advances and/or (2) an Advancing Person agrees to fund some or all
Advances and/or Servicing Advances required to be made by the Servicer pursuant
to this Agreement. No consent of the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Certificateholders or any other party (other than the NIMS Insurer consent)
shall be required before the Servicer may enter into an Advance Facility. The
Servicer shall notify the NIMS Insurer and each other party to this Agreement
prior to or promptly after entering into or terminating any Advance Facility.
Notwithstanding the existence of any Advance Facility under which an Advancing
Person agrees to fund Advances and/or Servicing Advances on the Servicer’s
behalf, the Servicer shall remain obligated pursuant to this Agreement to make
Advances and Servicing Advances pursuant to and as required by this Agreement.
If the Servicer enters into an Advance Facility, and for so long as an Advancing
Person remains entitled to receive reimbursement for any Advances including
Nonrecoverable Advances (“Advance Reimbursement Amounts”) and/or Servicing
Advances including Nonrecoverable Advances (“Servicing Advance Reimbursement
Amounts” and together with Advance Reimbursement Amounts, “Reimbursement
Amounts”) (in each case to the extent such type of Reimbursement Amount is
included in the Advance Facility), as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement,
then the Servicer shall identify such Reimbursement Amounts consistent with
the
reimbursement rights set forth in Section 3.11(a)(ii), (iii), (vi) and (vii)
and
remit such Reimbursement Amounts in accordance with Section 3.10(b) or otherwise
in accordance with the documentation establishing the Advance Facility to such
Advancing Person or to a trustee, agent or custodian (an “Advance Facility
Trustee”) designated by such Advancing Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
so required pursuant to the terms of the Advance Facility, the Servicer may
direct, and if so directed the Trustee is hereby authorized to and shall pay
to
the Advance Facility Trustee the Reimbursement Amounts identified pursuant
to
the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in
no
event shall Advance Reimbursement Amounts or Servicing Advance Reimbursement
Amounts be included in the Available Funds or distributed to
Certificateholders.
If
the
terms of a facility proposed to be entered into with an Advancing Person by
the
Trust Fund would not materially and adversely affect the interests of any
Certificateholder, then the NIMS Insurer shall not withhold its consent to
the
Trust Fund’s entering such facility.
Reimbursement
Amounts shall consist solely of amounts in respect of Advances and/or Servicing
Advances made with respect to the Mortgage Loans for which the Servicer would
be
permitted to reimburse itself in accordance with this Agreement, assuming the
Servicer or the Advancing Person had made the related Advance(s) and/or
Servicing Advance(s). Notwithstanding the foregoing, except with respect to
reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances as set forth in this Agreement, no
Person shall be entitled to reimbursement from funds held in the Collection
Account for future distribution to Certificateholders pursuant to this
Agreement. None of the Depositor or the Trustee shall have any duty or liability
with respect to the calculation of any Reimbursement Amount, nor shall the
Depositor or the Trustee have any responsibility to track or monitor the
administration of the Advance Facility and the Depositor shall not have any
responsibility to track, monitor or verify the payment of Reimbursement Amounts
to the related Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee. The Servicer shall
maintain and provide to any successor servicer and (upon request) the Trustee
a
detailed accounting on a loan by loan basis as to amounts advanced by, sold,
pledged or assigned to, and reimbursed to any Advancing Person. The successor
servicer shall be entitled to rely on any such information provided by the
predecessor servicer, and the successor servicer shall not be liable for any
errors in such information. Any successor Servicer shall reimburse the
predecessor Servicer and itself for outstanding Advances and Servicing Advances,
respectively, with respect to each Mortgage Loan on a first in, first out
(“FIFO”) basis; provided that the successor Servicer has received prior written
notice from the predecessor Servicer or the Advancing Person of reimbursement
amounts owed to the predecessor Servicer. Liquidation Proceeds with respect
to a
Mortgage Loan shall be applied to reimburse Advances outstanding with respect
to
that Mortgage Loan before being applied to reimburse Servicing Advances
outstanding with respect to that Mortgage Loan.
An
Advancing Person who receives an assignment or pledge of the rights to be
reimbursed for Advances and/or Servicing Advances, and/or whose obligations
hereunder are limited to the funding or purchase of Advances and/or Servicing
Advances shall not be required to meet the criteria for qualification of a
subservicer set forth in this Agreement.
Upon
the
direction of and at the expense of the Servicer, the Trustee agrees to execute
such acknowledgments, certificates, and other documents provided by the Servicer
recognizing the interests of any Advance Facility Trustee in such Reimbursement
Amounts as the Servicer may cause to be made subject to Advance Facilities
pursuant to this Section 3.27.
The
Servicer shall remain entitled to be reimbursed for all Advances and Servicing
Advances funded by the Servicer to the extent the related rights to be
reimbursed therefor have not been sold, assigned or pledged to an Advancing
Person.
The
Servicer shall indemnify the Depositor, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer, any
successor servicer and the Trust Fund for any loss, liability or damage
resulting from any claim by the related Advancing Person, except to the extent
that such claim, loss, liability or damage resulted from or arose out of
negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct or breach of its duties hereunder
on the part of the Depositor, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer or any successor
servicer.
Any
amendment to this Section 3.27 or to any other provision of this Agreement
that
may be necessary or appropriate to effect the terms of an Advance Facility
as
described generally in this Section 3.27, including amendments to add provisions
relating to a successor servicer, may be entered into by the Trustee, the
Depositor and the Servicer without the consent of any Certificateholder but
the
consent of the NIMS Insurer, provided such amendment complies with Section
11.01
hereof. All reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of each
party hereto of any such amendment shall be borne solely by the Servicer. Prior
to entering into an Advance Facility, the Servicer shall notify the Advancing
Person in writing that: (a) the Advances and/or Servicing Advances purchased,
financed by and/or pledged to the Advancing Person are obligations owed to
the
Servicer on a non-recourse basis payable only from the cash flows and proceeds
received under this Agreement for reimbursement of Advances and/or Servicing
Advances only to the extent provided herein, and the Trustee and the Trust
are
not otherwise obligated or liable to repay any Advances and/or Servicing Advance
financed by the Advancing Person and (b) the Trustee shall not have any
responsibility to track or monitor the administration of the Advance Facility
between the Servicer and the Advancing Person.
| SECTION 3.28 |
Late
Remittance.
|
With
respect to any remittance received by the Master Servicer after the day on
which
such payment was due, the Servicer shall pay to the Master Servicer interest
on
any such late payment at an annual rate equal to the Prime Rate, adjusted as
of
the date of each change, but in no event greater than the maximum amount
permitted by applicable law. Such interest shall be deposited in the
Distribution Account by the Servicer on the date such late payment is made
and
shall cover the period commencing with the day such payment was due and ending
with the Business Day on which such payment is made, both inclusive. Such
interest shall be remitted along with the distribution payable on the next
succeeding Servicer Remittance Date. The payment by the Servicer of any such
interest shall not be deemed an extension of time for payment or a waiver of
any
Servicer Event of Termination.

IIIA
ADMINISTRATION
AND SERVICING
OF
THE
MORTGAGE LOANS
| SECTION 3A.01 |
Master
Servicer to Act as Master Servicer.
|
The
Master Servicer shall supervise, monitor and oversee the obligation of the
Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement and shall have full power and authority to do any and
all things which it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such
master servicing and administration. In performing its obligations hereunder,
the Master Servicer shall act in a manner consistent with Accepted Master
Servicing Practices. Furthermore, the Master Servicer shall oversee and consult
with the Servicer as necessary from time-to-time to carry out the Master
Servicer’s obligations hereunder, shall receive, review and evaluate all
reports, information and other data provided to the Master Servicer by the
Servicer and shall cause the Servicer to perform and observe the covenants,
obligations and conditions to be performed or observed by the Servicer under
this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall independently monitor the Servicer’s
servicing activities with respect to each Mortgage Loan, reconcile the results
of such monitoring with such information provided in the previous sentence
on a
monthly basis and coordinate corrective adjustments to the Servicer’s and Master
Servicer’s records, and based on such reconciled and corrected information, the
Master Servicer shall provide such information to the Trust Administrator as
shall be necessary in order for it to prepare the statements specified in
Section 4.02, and prepare any other information and statements required to
be forwarded by the Master Servicer hereunder. The Master Servicer shall
reconcile the results of its Mortgage Loan monitoring with the actual
remittances of the Servicer to the Distribution Account pursuant to Section
3A.11.
The
Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator shall at all times be the same
Person.
The
Trustee shall furnish the Servicer and the Master Servicer with any powers
of
attorney and other documents in form as provided to it necessary or appropriate
to enable the Servicer and the Master Servicer to service and administer the
Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.
The
Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall provide access to the records and
documentation in possession of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as
applicable, regarding the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties and the servicing
thereof to the Certificateholders, the FDIC, and the supervisory agents and
examiners of the FDIC, such access being afforded only upon reasonable prior
written request and during normal business hours at the office of the Trustee
or
the Trust Administrator, as applicable; provided, however, that, unless
otherwise required by law, neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator
shall
be required to provide access to such records and documentation if the provision
thereof would violate the legal right to privacy of any Mortgagor. The Trustee
and the Trust Administrator shall allow representatives of the above entities
to
photocopy any of the records and documentation and shall provide equipment
for
that purpose at a charge that covers the Trustee’s or Trust Administrator’s, as
applicable, actual costs.
The
Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer and the Master Servicer any
court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary or
desirable to (i) the foreclosure or trustee’s sale with respect to a Mortgaged
Property; (ii) any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor
on the Mortgage Note or Security Instrument; (iii) obtain a deficiency judgment
against the Mortgagor; or (iv) enforce any other rights or remedies provided
by
the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or
equity.
| SECTION 3A.02 |
[Reserved].
|
| SECTION 3A.03 |
Monitoring
of Servicer.
|
In
the
review of the Servicer’s activities, the Master Servicer may rely upon an
Officers’ Certificate of the Servicer (or similar document signed by a Servicing
Officer of the Servicer) with regard to the Servicer’s compliance with the terms
of this Agreement. In the event that the Master Servicer, in its judgment,
determines that the Servicer should be terminated in accordance with the terms
hereof, or that a notice should be sent pursuant to the terms hereof with
respect to the occurrence of an event that, unless cured, would constitute
grounds for such termination, the Master Servicer shall notify the Depositor,
the Trust Administrator and the Trustee thereof and the Master Servicer shall
issue such notice or take such other action as it deems
appropriate.
The
Master Servicer or (if the Master Servicer is the Servicer) the Trustee, for
the
benefit of the Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of the Servicer
under this Agreement, and shall, in the event that it receives notice that
the
Servicer has failed to perform its obligations in accordance with this
Agreement, subject to the preceding paragraph, terminate the rights and
obligations of the Servicer hereunder in accordance with the provisions of
Article VII and act as Servicer of the Mortgage Loans or appoint a successor
servicer; provided, however, it is understood and acknowledged by the parties
hereto that there will be a period of transition (not to exceed 90 days) before
the actual servicing functions can be fully transferred to such successor
servicer. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution
of claims and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form
and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Master Servicer or
Trustee (or such other successor master servicer), as applicable, in its good
faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the Mortgage Loans.
The Master Servicer or the Trustee (or such other successor master servicer),
as
applicable, shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, provided
that the Master Servicer or the Trustee (or such other successor master
servicer), as applicable, shall not be required to prosecute or defend any
legal
action except to the extent that the Master Servicer or the Trustee (or such
other successor master servicer), as applicable, shall have received reasonable
indemnity for its costs and expenses in pursuing such action.
To
the
extent that the costs and expenses of the Master Servicer or Trustee, as
applicable, related to any termination of the Servicer, appointment of a
successor servicer or the transfer and assumption of servicing by the Master
Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, with respect to this Agreement
(including, without limitation, (i) all legal costs and expenses and all due
diligence costs and expenses associated with an evaluation of the potential
termination of the Servicer as a result of a Servicer Event of Termination
and
(ii) all costs and expenses associated with the complete transfer of servicing,
including all servicing files and all servicing data and the completion,
correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be required by the
successor servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing
data or otherwise to enable the successor servicer to service the Mortgage
Loans
in accordance with this Agreement) are not fully and timely reimbursed by the
terminated Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall
be
entitled to reimbursement of such costs and expenses from the Distribution
Account.
The
Master Servicer (or if the Master Servicer is the Servicer, the Trustee (or
other successor master servicer)) shall, upon receipt from the Servicer, the
Master Servicer or the Trust Administrator, of notice of any failure of the
Servicer to comply with the remittance requirements and other obligations set
forth in this Agreement, enforce such obligations after consultation with the
Depositor.
If
the
Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, acts as Servicer, it will not
assume liability for the representations and warranties of the Servicer that
it
replaces.
| SECTION 3A.04 |
Fidelity
Bond.
|
The
Master Servicer, at its expense, shall maintain in effect a blanket fidelity
bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, affording coverage with
respect to all directors, officers, employees and other Persons acting on such
Master Servicer’s behalf, and covering errors and omissions in the performance
of the Master Servicer’s obligations hereunder. The errors and omissions
insurance policy and the fidelity bond shall be in such form and amount
generally acceptable for entities serving as Master Servicer.
| SECTION 3A.05 |
Power
to Act; Procedures.
|
The
Master Servicer shall master service the Mortgage Loans and shall have full
power and authority, subject to the REMIC Provisions and the provisions of
Article X hereof, to do any and all things that it may deem necessary or
desirable in connection with the master servicing and administration of the
Mortgage Loans, including but not limited to the power and authority (i) to
execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee,
customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents, (ii) to
consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the Mortgage
Notes and related Mortgages, (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and
Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion
of
the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan, in each
case, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however,
that the Master Servicer shall not (and, consistent with its responsibilities
under Article X, shall not permit any Servicer to) knowingly or intentionally
take any action, or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action
reasonably within its control and the scope of duties more specifically set
forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the
case may be, would cause the Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result
in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust Fund (including but not limited to
the
tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code
and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the
Code) unless the Master Servicer has received an Opinion of Counsel (but not
at
the expense of the Master Servicer) to the effect that the contemplated action
would not cause any REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the
imposition of a tax upon any REMIC. The Trustee shall furnish the Master
Servicer or the Servicer, upon written request from a Servicing Officer, with
any powers of attorney empowering the Master Servicer or the Servicer to execute
and deliver instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full
release or discharge, and to foreclose upon or otherwise liquidate Mortgaged
Property, and to appeal, prosecute or defend in any court action relating to
the
Mortgage Loans or the Mortgaged Property, in accordance with this Agreement,
and
the Trustee shall execute and deliver such other documents, as the Master
Servicer may request, to enable the Master Servicer to master service and
administer the Mortgage Loans and carry out its duties hereunder, in each case
in accordance with Accepted Master Servicing Practices (and the Trustee shall
have no liability for misuse of any such powers of attorney by the Master
Servicer or the Servicer). If the Master Servicer or the Trustee has been
advised that it is likely that the laws of the state in which action is to
be
taken prohibit such action if taken in the name of the Trustee or that the
Trustee would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of
such state if such action is taken in its name, the Master Servicer shall join
with the Trustee in the appointment of a co-trustee pursuant to
Section 8.10 hereof. In the performance of its duties hereunder, the Master
Servicer shall be an independent contractor and shall not, except in those
instances where it is taking action in the name of the Trustee, be deemed to
be
the agent of the Trustee.
| SECTION 3A.06 |
Due
on Sale Clauses; Assumption
Agreements.
|
To
the
extent Mortgage Loans contain enforceable due-on-sale clauses, the Master
Servicer shall cause the Servicer to enforce such clauses in accordance with
this Agreement. If applicable law prohibits the enforcement of a due-on-sale
clause or such clause is otherwise not enforced in accordance with this
Agreement, and, as a consequence, a Mortgage Loan is assumed, the original
Mortgagor may be released from liability in accordance with this
Agreement.
| SECTION 3A.07 |
[Reserved].
|
| SECTION 3A.08 |
Documents,
Records and Funds in Possession of Master Servicer to be Held for
Trustee.
|
The
Master Servicer and the Servicer shall transmit to the Trustee (or the Custodian
on behalf of the Trustee) such documents and instruments coming into the
possession of the Master Servicer or the Servicer from time to time as are
required by the terms hereof to be delivered to the Trustee, the Trust
Administrator or the Custodian. Any funds received by the Master Servicer or
by
the Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loan or which otherwise are collected
by
the Master Servicer or by the Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance
Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage Loan shall be held for the benefit of the
Trustee and the Certificateholders subject to the Master Servicer’s right to
retain or withdraw from the Distribution Account the Master Servicing
Compensation and other amounts provided in this Agreement, and to the right
of
the Servicer to retain its Servicing Fee and other amounts as provided in this
Agreement. The Master Servicer shall, and subject to Section 3.22 shall cause
the Servicer to, provide access to information and documentation regarding
the
Mortgage Loans to the Trust Administrator, its agents and accountants at any
time upon reasonable request and during normal business hours, and to
Certificateholders that are savings and loan associations, banks or insurance
companies, the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC and the supervisory agents
and examiners of such Office and Corporation or examiners of any other federal
or state banking or insurance regulatory authority if so required by applicable
regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision or other regulatory authority,
such access to be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable request
in
writing and during normal business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer
designated by it. In fulfilling such a request the Master Servicer shall not
be
responsible for determining the sufficiency of such information.
All
Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the
Master Servicer or the Servicer, in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether
from
the collection of principal and interest payments or from Liquidation Proceeds
or Insurance Proceeds, shall be held by the Servicer or the Master Servicer,
as
applicable, for and on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders and
shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Trustee; provided,
however, that the Master Servicer and the Servicer shall be entitled to setoff
against, and deduct from, any such funds any amounts that are properly due

|
The
Master Servicer will be entitled to a portion of the Administration Fee and
all
income and gain realized from any investment of funds in the Distribution
Account, pursuant to Section 3A.11 and Section 3A.12, for the
performance of its activities hereunder (the “Master Servicing Compensation”).
Servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, if any, late payment
charges, as collected, if any, or otherwise shall be retained by the Servicer
in
accordance with Section 3.18. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay
all

In
the
event of a Prepayment Interest Shortfall, the Master Servicer shall remit to

(except as described below), not later than the related Distribution Date,
Compensating Interest in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the aggregate

attributable to Principal Prepayments in full on the Mortgage Loans for the

respect of such Compensating Interest prior to the time it shall have succeeded
as successor servicer, the Master Servicer shall be subrogated to the Trust
Fund’s right to receive such amount from the Servicer. In the event the Trust
Fund receives from the Servicer all or any portion of amounts in respect of
Compensating Interest required to be paid by the Servicer pursuant to Section
3.24, not so paid by the Servicer when required, and paid by the Master Servicer
pursuant to this Section 3A.10, then the Master Servicer may reimburse

| SECTION 3A.11 |
Distribution
Account.
|
On
behalf
of the Trust Fund, the Trust Administrator shall establish and maintain one

deposit in the Distribution Account as identified by the Master Servicer and
as
received by the Master Servicer, the following amounts:
(1) Any
amounts remitted to the Master Servicer by the Servicer from the Collection
Account;
(2) Any
Advances received from the Servicer, or made by the Master Servicer or (if
the
Master Servicer is the Servicer) the Trustee (in each case in its capacity
as
successor servicer), and any payments of Compensating Interest received from
the
Servicer or made by the Master Servicer (unless, in the case of the Master
Servicer, such amounts are deposited by the Master Servicer directly into the
Distribution Account);
(3) Any
Insurance Proceeds or Net Liquidation Proceeds received by or on behalf of
the
Master Servicer or which were not deposited in the Collection
Account;
(4)
Any
amounts required to be deposited with respect to losses on investments of
deposits in the Distribution Account; and
(5) Any
other
amounts received by or on behalf of the Master Servicer and required to be
deposited in the Distribution Account pursuant to this Agreement.
All
amounts deposited to the Distribution Account shall be held by the Master
Servicer in the name of the Trustee in Trust for the benefit of the
Certificateholders in accordance with the terms and provisions of this
Agreement. The requirements for crediting the Distribution Account shall be
exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, payments in the nature of (A) late payment charges or
assumption, tax service, statement account or payoff, substitution,
satisfaction, release and other like fees and charges and (B) the items
enumerated in Section 3A.12(a) (with respect the clearing and termination
of the Distribution Account and with respect to amounts deposited in error),
in
Section 3A.12(b) or in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv), (v) of
Section 3A.12(c), need not be credited by the Master Servicer to the
Distribution Account. In the event that the Master Servicer shall deposit or
cause to be deposited to the Distribution Account any amount not required to
be
credited thereto, the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, upon receipt of a
written request therefor signed by a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer,
shall promptly transfer such amount to the Master Servicer, any provision herein
to the contrary notwithstanding.
The
Trust
Administrator may direct any depository institution maintaining the Distribution
Account to invest the funds on deposit in such account or to hold such funds
uninvested. All investments pursuant to this Section 3A.11 shall be in one
or more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and
maturing, unless payable on demand, (i) no later than the Business Day
immediately preceding the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn
from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if a Person other than the Trust
Administrator is the obligor thereon or if such investment is managed or advised
by a Person other than the Trust Administrator or an Affiliate of the Trust
Administrator, and (ii) no later than the date on which such funds are required
to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the Trust
Administrator is the obligor thereon or if such investment is managed or advised
by the Trust Administrator or any Affiliate. All such Permitted Investments
shall be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any investment of funds
in
the Distribution Account shall be made in the name of the Trustee, or in the
name of a nominee of the Trust Administrator. The Trust Administrator shall
be
entitled to sole possession over each such investment, and any certificate
or
other instrument evidencing any such investment shall be delivered directly
to
the Trust Administrator or its agent, together with any document of transfer
necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Trust Administrator or
its
nominee. In the event amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account are at
any
time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Trust
Administrator shall:
(x) consistent
with any notice required to be given thereunder, demand that payment thereon
be
made on the last day such Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder
in
an amount equal to the lesser of (1) all amounts then payable thereunder and
(2)
the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and
(y) demand
payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon determination by a
Responsible Officer of the Trust Administrator that such Permitted Investment
would not constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter
on
deposit in the Distribution Account.
All
income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the
Distribution Account shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer. The Trust
Administrator shall deposit in the Distribution Account the amount of any loss
of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with
funds in such Account immediately upon realization of such loss.

such Certificateholders.
(h) Each
distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be paid to the
Depository, which shall credit the amount of such distribution to the accounts
of its Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each
Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution
to
the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating
brokerage firm (a “brokerage firm” or “indirect participating firm”) for which
it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds
to the Certificate Owners that it represents. All such credits and disbursements
with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate are to be made by the Depository and
the Depository Participants in accordance with the provisions of the
Certificates. None of the Trustee, the Depositor or the Servicer shall have
any
responsibility therefor except as otherwise provided by applicable
law.
On
each
Distribution Date, following the foregoing distributions, an amount equal to
the
amount of Subsequent Recoveries deposited into the Collection Account pursuant
to Section 3.10 shall be applied to increase the Certificate Principal Balance
of the Class of Certificates with the Highest Priority up to the extent of
such
Realized Losses previously allocated to that Class of Certificates pursuant
to
Section 4.08. An amount equal to the amount of any remaining Subsequent
Recoveries shall be applied to increase the Certificate Principal Balance of
the
Class of Certificates with the next Highest Priority, up to the amount of such
Realized Losses previously allocated to that Class of Certificates pursuant
to
Section 4.08. Holders of such Certificates will not be entitled to any
distribution in respect of interest on the amount of such increases for any
Interest Accrual Period preceding the Distribution Date on which such increase
occurs. Any such increases shall be applied to the Certificate Principal Balance
of each Certificate of such Class in accordance with its respective Percentage
Interest.
(i) It
is the
intention of all of the parties hereto that the Class C Certificates receive
all
principal and interest received by the Trust on the Mortgage Loans that is
not
otherwise distributable to any other Class of Regular Certificates or REMIC
Regular Interests and that the Residual Certificates are to receive no principal
and interest. If the Trust Administrator determines that the Residual
Certificates are entitled to any distributions, the Trust Administrator, prior
to any such distribution to any Residual Certificate, shall notify the Depositor
of such impending distribution but shall make such distribution in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement until this Agreement is amended as specified
in
the following sentence. Upon such notification, the Depositor will request
an
amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to revise such mistake in
the
distribution provisions. The Residual Certificate Holders, by acceptance of
their Certificates, and the Servicer(s), hereby agree to any such amendment
and
no further consent shall be necessary, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in Section 11.01 of this Pooling and Servicing Agreement; provided, however,
that such amendment shall otherwise comply with Section 11.01
hereof.

The
Trust
Administrator will make such statement (and, at its option, any additional
files
containing the same information in an alternative format) available each month
to Certificateholders, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Depositor and
the
Rating Agencies via the Trust Administrator’s internet website. The Trust
Administrator’s internet website shall initially be located at
“xxx.xxxxxxx.xxx”. Assistance in using the website can be obtained by calling
the Trust Administrator’s customer service desk at (000) 000-0000. Parties that
are unable to use the above distribution options are entitled to have a paper
copy mailed to them via first class mail by calling the customer service desk
and indicating such. The Trust Administrator shall have the right to change
the
way such statements are distributed in order to make such distribution more
convenient and/or more accessible to the above parties and the Trust
Administrator shall provide timely and adequate notification to all above
parties regarding any such changes. As a condition to access the Trust
Administrator’s internet website, the Trust Administrator may require
registration and the acceptance of a disclaimer. The Trust Administrator will
not be liable for the dissemination of information in accordance with this
Agreement. The Trust Administrator shall also be entitled to rely on but shall
not be responsible for the content or accuracy of any information provided
by
third parties for purposes of preparing the distribution date statement and
may
affix thereto any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion
(without suggesting liability on the part of any other party
thereto).
In
the
case of information furnished pursuant to subclauses (i) and (ii) above, the
amounts shall be expressed in a separate section of the report as a dollar
amount for each Class for each $1,000 original dollar amount as of the Cut-off
Date.
In
addition, on each Distribution Date, based, as applicable, on information
provided to the Trust Administrator by the Master Servicer (which in turn shall
be based, as applicable, on information provided to the Master Servicer by
the
Servicer), the Trust Administrator shall prepare and make available information,
separated for the Originator, regarding the performance of the Mortgage Loans,
including, but not limited to, information regarding delinquency, loss and
prepayment experience of the Mortgage Loans.
For
all
purposes of this Agreement, with respect to any Mortgage Loan, delinquencies
shall be determined and reported based on the “OTS” methodology for determining
delinquencies on mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage Loans. By way of
example, a Mortgage Loan would be Delinquent with respect to a Monthly Payment
due on a Due Date if such Monthly Payment is not made by the close of business
on the Mortgage Loan’s next succeeding Due Date, and a Mortgage Loan would be
more than 30-days Delinquent with respect to such Monthly Payment if such
Monthly Payment were not made by the close of business on the Mortgage Loan’s
second succeeding Due Date. The Servicer hereby represents and warrants to
the
Depositor that this delinquency recognition policy is not less restrictive
than
any delinquency recognition policy established by the primary safety and
soundness regulator, if any, of the Servicer.
Once
each
calendar month, the Trust Administrator shall supply an electronic tape to
Bloomberg Financial Markets, Inc. in a format acceptable to Bloomberg Financial
Markets, Inc. on a monthly basis, and shall supply an electronic tape to Loan
Performance and Intex Solutions in a format acceptable to Loan Performance
and
Intex Solutions on a monthly basis.
(b) Within
a
reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, the Trust
Administrator shall, upon written request, furnish to each Person who at any
time during the calendar year was a Certificateholder of a Regular Certificate,
if requested in writing by such Person, such information as is reasonably
necessary to provide to such Person a statement containing the information
set
forth in subclauses (i) and (ii) above, aggregated for such calendar year or
applicable portion thereof during which such Person was a Certificateholder.
Such obligation of the Trust Administrator shall be deemed to have been
satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall be
prepared and furnished by the Trust Administrator to Certificateholders pursuant
to any requirements of the Code as are in force from time to time.
(c) On
each
Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator shall make available to the NIMS
Insurer and the Residual Certificateholders a copy of the reports forwarded
to
the Regular Certificateholders in respect of such Distribution Date with such
other information as the Trust Administrator deems necessary or
appropriate.
(d) Within
a
reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, the Trust
Administrator shall deliver to the NIMS Insurer, upon request, and each Person
who at any time during the calendar year was a Residual Certificateholder,
if
requested in writing by such Person, such information as is reasonably necessary
to provide to such Person a statement containing the information provided
pursuant to the previous paragraph aggregated for such calendar year or
applicable portion thereof during which such Person was a Residual
Certificateholder. Such obligation of the Trust Administrator shall be deemed
to
have been satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information
shall be prepared and furnished to Certificateholders by the Trust Administrator
pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from time to time in
force.
| SECTION 4.04 |
Remittance
Reports; Advances.
|
(a) On
each
Determination Date, the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer (and
the
Master Servicer shall make available to the NIMS Insurer) a monthly remittance
advice (which together with any supplemental reports is known as the “Remittance
Report”) in a format attached as Exhibit R-2 or in any other format as mutually
agreed to between the Servicer and the Master Servicer, containing such
information regarding the Mortgage Loans as is needed by the Master Servicer
to
perform its duties as set forth in Section 4.01 and 4.02 hereof. Such Remittance
Report will also include a delinquency report substantially in the form set
forth in Exhibit R-1 and a realized loss report substantially in the form set
forth in Exhibit R-3 (or in either case, such other format as mutually agreed
to
between the Servicer and the Master Servicer). No later than 3 Business Days
after the 15th day of each calendar month, the Servicer shall furnish to the
Master Servicer a monthly report containing such information regarding
prepayments in full on Mortgage Loans during the applicable Prepayment Period
in
a format as mutually agreed to between the Servicer and the Master Servicer.
The
Master Servicer shall not be responsible to recompute, recalculate or verify
any
information provided to it by the Servicer.
(b) The
amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer for any Distribution Date shall
equal, subject to Section 4.04(d), the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of
Monthly Payments (net of the related Servicing Fee), due during the related
Due
Period in respect of the Mortgage Loans (other than with respect to any REO
Property or second lien Mortgage Loan as described in clauses (ii) and (iii)
below or a Balloon Mortgage Loan as described below), which Monthly Payments
were delinquent on a contractual basis as of the Close of Business on the
related Determination Date, (ii) with respect to each REO Property, which REO
Property was acquired during or prior to the related Due Period and as to which
REO Property an REO Disposition did not occur during the related Due Period,
an
amount equal to the excess, if any, of the REO Imputed Interest on such REO
Property for the most recently ended calendar month, over the net income from
such REO Property transferred to the Distribution Account pursuant to Section
3.23 for distribution on such Distribution Date and (iii) with respect to each
second lien Mortgage Loan, an amount equal to the interest portion of the
related Monthly Payment (net of the related Servicing Fee). For purposes of
the
preceding sentence, the Monthly Payment on each Balloon Mortgage Loan with
a
delinquent Balloon Payment is equal to the assumed monthly payment that would
have been due on the related Due Date based on the original principal
amortization schedule for such Balloon Mortgage Loan. In addition, the Servicer
shall not be required to advance any Relief Act Interest Shortfalls or to cover
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls in excess of its obligations under Section
3.24.
On
or
before the Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall remit in immediately
available funds to the Trust Administrator for deposit in the Distribution
Account an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Advances, if any, to be
made
in respect of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties for the related Distribution
Date either (i) from its own funds or (ii) from the Collection Account, to
the
extent of funds held therein for future distribution (in which case it will
cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of Collection Account
that
amounts held for future distribution have been, as permitted by this Section
4.04, used by the Servicer in discharge of any such Advance) or (iii) in the
form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the total amount of Advances
to be made by the Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties. Servicing Advances, if any, to be made by the Servicer in respect
of
the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties for the related Distribution Date may
be
made either (i) from its own funds, (ii) from the Collection Account, to the
extent of funds held therein for future distribution (in which case, it shall
cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of the Collection Account
that amounts held for future distribution have been, as permitted by this
Section 4.04, used by the Servicer in discharge of any such Servicing Advance)
or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the total
amount of Servicing Advances to be made by the Servicer with respect to the
Mortgage Loans and REO Properties. Any amounts held for future distribution
used
by the Servicer to make an Advance or Servicing Advance as permitted in the
preceding sentence shall be appropriately reflected in the Servicer’s records
and replaced by the Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account on or before
any future Servicer Remittance Date to the extent that the Available Funds
for
the related Distribution Date (determined without regard to Advances and
Servicing Advances to be made on the Servicer Remittance Date) shall be less
than the total amount that would be distributed to the Classes of
Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01 on such Distribution Date if such
amounts held for future distributions had not been so used to make Advances.
The
Trust Administrator will provide notice to the Servicer by telecopy by the
Close
of Business on any Servicer Remittance Date in the event that the amount
remitted by the Servicer to the Trust Administrator on such date is less than
the Advances required to be made by the Servicer for the related Distribution
Date, as set forth in the related Remittance Report.
(c) The
obligation of the Servicer to make Advances and Servicing Advances is mandatory,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but subject to (d) below,
and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan, shall continue until the Mortgage Loan
is paid in full or until all Liquidation Proceeds thereon have been recovered,
or a Final Recovery Determination has been made thereon.
(d) Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, no Advance or Servicing Advance shall be
required to be made hereunder by the Servicer if such Advance or Servicing
Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. The determination
by the Servicer that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed
Advance or Servicing Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable
Advance, shall be evidenced by a certification of a Servicing Officer delivered
to the Trust Administrator and the NIMS Insurer (whereupon, upon receipt of
such
certification, the Trust Administrator shall forward a copy of such
certification to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Credit Risk Manager).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if following the application of Liquidation
Proceeds on any Mortgage Loan that was the subject of a Final Recovery
Determination, any Servicing Advance with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall
remain unreimbursed to the Servicer, then without limiting the provisions of
Section 3.11(a), a certification of a Servicing Officer regarding such
Nonrecoverable Advance shall not be required to be delivered by the Servicer
to
the Trust Administrator.
(e) In
the
event the Servicer fails to make any Advance required to be made by it pursuant
to this Section 4.04 and such failure is not remedied within the applicable
cure
period pursuant to Section 7.01(a), then, pursuant to Section 7.01(a), the
Servicer will be terminated, and, in accordance with Sections 7.01(a) and 7.02,
the Master Servicer or (if the Master Servicer is the Servicer) the Trustee
(in
its respective capacity as successor servicer) or another successor servicer
shall be required to make such Advance on the Distribution Date with respect
to
which the Servicer was required to make such Advance, subject to the Master
Servicer’s or the Trustee’s (or other successor servicer’s) determination of
recoverability. The Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable (or other
successor servicer) shall not be required to make any Advance to cover any
Relief Act Interest Shortfall on any Mortgage Loan. If the Master Servicer
or
the Trustee, as applicable (or other successor servicer) is required to make
any
Advances, such advances may be made by it in the manner set forth under (b)
above.
| SECTION 4.05 |
Commission
Reporting.
|
(a) (i)
Using
best efforts, within 10 days after each Distribution Date, and no later than
15
days after each Distribution Date (subject to permitted extensions under the
Exchange Act), the Trust Administrator shall, in accordance with industry
standards, prepare and file, on behalf of the Trust, with the Commission via
the
Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System (“XXXXX”), any Form 10-D required
by the Exchange Act, in form and substance as required by the Exchange Act,
signed by the Master Servicer, with a copy of the monthly statement to be
furnished by the Trust Administrator to the Certificateholders for such
Distribution Date attached thereto. Any disclosure in addition to the monthly
statement that is required to be included on Form 10-D (“Additional Form 10-D
Disclosure”) shall be reported by the parties set forth on Exhibit T to the
Depositor and the Trust Administrator and directed and approved by the Depositor
pursuant to the following paragraph, and the Trust Administrator will have
no
duty or liability for any failure hereunder to determine or prepare any
Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, except as set forth in the next
paragraph.
(ii) For
so
long as the Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange
Act,
within 5 calendar days after the related Distribution Date, (i) the parties
set
forth in Exhibit T shall be required to provide, pursuant to Section 4.05(a)(v)
below, to the Trust Administrator (by email at xxx.xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx
and by
facsimile at 410-715-2380) and the Depositor, to the extent known, in
XXXXX-compatible format, or in such other format as otherwise agreed upon by
the
Trust Administrator and such party, the form and substance of any Additional
Form 10-D Disclosure, if applicable, together with an Additional Disclosure
Notification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit P (an “Additional Disclosure
Notification”) and (ii) the Depositor will approve, as to form and substance, or
disapprove, as the case may be, the inclusion of the Additional Form 10-D
Disclosure on Form 10-D. The Trust Administrator has no duty under this
Agreement to monitor or enforce the performance by the parties listed on Exhibit
T of their duties under this paragraph or proactively solicit or procure from
such parties any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure information. The Depositor
will
be responsible for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or incurred by
the
Trust Administrator in connection with including any Additional Form 10-D
Disclosure on Form 10-D pursuant to this Section.
After
preparing the Form 10-D, the Trust Administrator shall, upon request, forward
electronically a copy of the Form 10-D to the Depositor for review, only to
the
extent that the Form 10-D contains Additional Form 10-D Disclosure. Within
two
Business Days after receipt of such copy, but no later than the 13th calendar
day after the Distribution Date, the Depositor shall notify the Trust
Administrator in writing (which may be furnished electronically) of any changes
to or approval of such Form 10-D. In the absence of receipt of any written
changes or approval, or if the Depositor does not request a copy of a Form
10-D,
the Trust Administrator shall be entitled to assume that such Form 10-D is
in
final form and the Trust Administrator may proceed with the execution and filing
of the Form 10-D. A duly authorized representative of the Master Servicer shall
sign each Form 10-D. If a Form 10-D cannot be filed on time or if a previously
filed Form 10-D needs to be amended, the Trust Administrator will follow the
procedures set forth in Section 4.05(a)(vi). Promptly (but no later than 1
Business Day) after filing with the Commission, the Trust Administrator will
make available on its internet website a final executed copy of each Form 10-D
filed by the Trust Administrator. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge
that
the performance by the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator of its duties
under Sections 4.05(a)(i), (ii) and (v) related to the timely preparation and
filing of Form 10-D is contingent upon such parties strictly observing all
applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties under such Sections.
The
Depositor acknowledges that the performance by the Master Servicer and the
Trust
Administrator of its duties under this Section 4.05(a)(ii) related to the timely
preparation, execution and filing of Form 10-D is also contingent upon the
Servicer, the Custodians and any Sub-Servicer or Subcontractor strictly
observing deadlines no later than those set forth in this paragraph that are
applicable to the parties to this Agreement in the delivery to the Trust
Administrator of any necessary Additional Form 10-D Disclosure pursuant to
the
Custodial Agreement or any other applicable agreement. Neither the Master
Servicer nor the Trust Administrator shall have any liability for any loss,
expense, damage or claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to
properly prepare, execute and/or timely file such Form 10-D and Form 10-K,
where
such failure results from the Trust Administrator’s inability or failure to
receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party hereto or
any
Custodian, Sub-Servicer or Subcontractor needed to prepare, arrange for
execution or file such Form 10-D, not resulting from its own negligence, bad
faith or willful misconduct.
(iii) Within
four (4) Business Days after the occurrence of an event requiring disclosure
on
Form 8-K (each such event, a “Reportable Event”), and if requested by the
Depositor, the Trust Administrator shall prepare and file on behalf of the
Trust
a Form 8-K, as required by the Exchange Act, provided that the Depositor shall
file the initial Form 8-K in connection with the issuance of the Certificates.
Any disclosure or information related to a Reportable Event or that is otherwise
required to be included on Form 8-K other than the initial Form 8-K (“Form 8-K
Disclosure Information”) shall, be reported by the parties set forth on Exhibit
T to the Depositor and the Trust Administrator and directed and approved by
the
Depositor, pursuant to the following paragraph, and the Trust Administrator
will
have no duty or liability for any failure hereunder to determine or prepare
any
Form 8-K Disclosure Information or any Form 8-K, except as set forth in the
next
paragraph.
For
so
long as the Trust is subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements, no
later than the close of business (New York City Time) on the 2nd
Business
Day after the occurrence of a Reportable Event (i) the parties set forth in
Exhibit T shall be required pursuant to Section 4.05(a)(v) below to provide
to
the Trust Administrator and the Depositor, to the extent known, in
XXXXX-compatible format, or in such other format as otherwise agreed upon by
the
Trust Administrator and such party, the form and substance of any Form 8-K
Disclosure Information, if applicable, together with an Additional Disclosure
Notification and (ii) the Depositor will approve, as to form and substance,
or
disapprove, as the case may be, the inclusion of the Form 8-K Disclosure
Information on Form 8-K. The Depositor will be responsible for any reasonable
fees and expenses assessed or incurred by the Trust Administrator in connection
with including any Form 8-K Disclosure Information on Form 8-K pursuant to
this
Section.
After
preparing the Form 8-K, the Trust Administrator shall, upon request, forward
electronically a copy of the Form 8-K to the Depositor for review. Promptly,
but
no later than the close of business on the third Business Day after the
Reportable Event, the Depositor shall notify the Trust Administrator in writing
(which may be furnished electronically) of any changes to or approval of such
Form 8-K. In the absence of receipt of any written changes or approval, or
if
the Depositor does not request a copy of a Form 8-K, the Trust Administrator
shall be entitled to assume that such Form 8-K is in final form and the Trust
Administrator may proceed with the execution and filing of the Form 8-K. A
duly
authorized representative of the Master Servicer shall sign each Form 8-K.
If a
Form 8-K cannot be filed on time or if a previously filed Form 8-K needs to
be
amended, the Trust Administrator will follow the procedures set forth in Section
4.05(a)(vi). Promptly (but no later than 1 Business Day) after filing with
the
Commission, the Trust Administrator will make available on its internet website
a final executed copy of each Form 8-K filed by it. The parties to this
Agreement acknowledge that the performance by the Master Servicer and the Trust
Administrator of its duties under this Section 4.05(a)(iii) related to the
timely preparation and filing of Form 8-K is contingent upon such parties
strictly observing all applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties
under this Section 4.05(a)(iii). The Depositor acknowledges that the performance
by the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator of its duties under this
Section 4.05(a)(iii) related to the timely preparation, execution and filing
of
Form 10-D is also contingent upon the Servicer, the Custodians and any
Sub-Servicer or Subcontractor strictly observing deadlines no later than those
set forth in this paragraph that are applicable to the parties to this Agreement
in the delivery to the Trust Administrator of any necessary Form 8-K Disclosure
Information pursuant to the Custodial Agreement or any other applicable
agreement. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trust Administrator shall have
any liability for any loss, expense, damage or claim arising out of or with
respect to any failure to properly prepare, execute and/or timely file such
Form
8-K, where such failure results from the Trust Administrator’s inability or
failure to receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party
hereto or any Custodian, Sub-servicer or Subcontractor needed to prepare,
arrange for execution or file such Form 8-K, not resulting from its own
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
(iv) (A)
On or
prior to 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Trust or such earlier
date as may be required by the Exchange Act (the “10-K Filing Deadline”) (it
being understood that the fiscal year for the Trust ends on December
31st
of each
year), commencing in March 2007, the Trust Administrator shall prepare and
file
on behalf of the Trust a Form 10-K, in form and substance as required by the
Exchange Act. Each such Form 10-K shall include the following items, in each

to the Depositor and the Trust Administrator and directed and approved by the
Depositor pursuant to the following paragraph, and the Trust Administrator
will
have no duty or liability for any failure hereunder to determine or prepare
any
Additional Form 10-K Disclosure, except as set forth in the next
paragraph.
No
later
than March 1st
(with a
10 calendar day cure period) of each year that the Trust is subject to the
Exchange Act reporting requirements, commencing in 2007, (i) the parties set
forth in Exhibit T shall be required to provide pursuant to Section 4.05(a)(v)
below to the Depositor and to the Trust Administrator (by email at xxx.xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx
and by
facsimile at 410-715-2380), to the extent known, in XXXXX-compatible format,
or
in such other format as otherwise agreed upon by the Trust Administrator and
such party, the form and substance of any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure,
if
applicable, together with an Additional Disclosure Notification and (ii) the
Depositor will approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case
may
be, the inclusion of the Additional Form 10-K Disclosure on Form 10-K. The
Trust
Administrator has no duty under this Agreement to monitor or enforce the
performance by the parties listed on Exhibit T of their duties under this
paragraph or proactively solicit or procure from such parties any Additional
Form 10-K Disclosure information. The Depositor will be responsible for any
reasonable fees and expenses assessed or incurred by the Trust Administrator
in
connection with including any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure on Form 10-K
pursuant to this Section.
After
preparing the Form 10-K, the Trust Administrator shall forward, upon request,
electronically a copy of the Form 10-K to the Depositor for review. Within
three
Business Days after receipt of such copy, but no later than March 25th, the
Depositor shall notify the Trust Administrator in writing (which may be
furnished electronically) of any changes to or approval of such Form 10-K.
In
the absence of receipt of any written changes or approval, or if the Depositor
does not request a copy of a Form 10-K, the Trust Administrator shall be
entitled to assume that such Form 10-K is in final form and the Trust
Administrator may proceed with the execution and filing of the Form 10-K. A
senior officer of the Master Servicer in charge of the master servicing function
shall sign the Form 10-K. If a Form 10-K cannot be filed on time or if a
previously filed Form 10-K needs to be amended, the Trust Administrator will
follow the procedures set forth in Section 4.05(a)(vi). Promptly (but no later
than 1 Business Day) after filing with the Commission, the Trust Administrator
will make available on its internet website a final executed copy of each Form
10-K filed by it. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the performance
by the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator of its duties under Section
4.05(a)(iv) and Section 4.05(a)(v) related to the timely preparation, execution
and filing of Form 10-K is contingent upon such parties strictly observing
all
applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties under such Sections,
Section 3.20 and Section 3.21. The Depositor acknowledges that the performance
by the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator of its duties under this
Section 4.05(a)(iv) related to the timely preparation, execution and filing
of
Form 10-K is also contingent upon the Servicer, the Custodians and any
Sub-Servicer or Subcontractor strictly observing deadlines no later than those
set forth in this paragraph that are applicable to the parties to this Agreement
in the delivery to the Trust Administrator of any necessary Additional Form
10-K
Disclosure, any annual statement of compliance and any assessment of compliance
and attestation pursuant to the related Custodial Agreement or any other
applicable agreement. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trust Administrator
shall have any liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out of
or
with respect to any failure to properly prepare, execute and/or timely file
such
Form 10-K, where such failure results from the Trust Administrator’s inability
or failure to receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party
hereto or any Custodian, Sub-servicer or Subcontractor needed to prepare,
arrange for execution or file such Form 10-K, not resulting from its own
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
Each
Form
10-K shall include a certification (the “Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification”), exactly
as set forth in Exhibit N-1 attached hereto, required to be included therewith
pursuant to the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act. Each of the Servicer, the Master Servicer
and the Trust Administrator shall provide, and each such party and the Trustee
shall cause any Sub-servicer or Subcontractor engaged by it to provide, to
the
Person who signs the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification (the “Certifying Person”), by
March 15th
of each
year in which the Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange
Act, a certification (a “Back-Up Certification”), in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit N-2, upon which the Certifying Person, the entity for which the
Certifying Person acts as an officer, and such entity’s officers, directors and
Affiliates (collectively with the Certifying Person, “Certification Parties”)
can reasonably rely. A senior officer of the Master Servicer in charge of the
master servicing function shall serve as the Certifying Person on behalf of
the
Trust. Such officer of the Certifying Person can be contacted by e-mail at
xxx.xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx or by facsimile at 000-000-0000. In the
event that any such party or any Sub-servicer or Subcontractor engaged by such
party is terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or
any
other applicable agreement, as the case may be, such party shall provide a
Back-Up Certification to the Certifying Person pursuant to this Section
4.05(a)(iv) with respect to the period of time it was subject to this Agreement
or any other applicable agreement, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, (i) the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator shall not be
required to deliver a Back-Up Certification to each other if both are the same
Person and the Master Servicer is the Certifying Person and (ii) the Master
Servicer shall not be obligated to sign the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Certification in
the
event that it does not receive any Back-Up Certification required to be
furnished to it pursuant to this section or any Servicing
Agreement.
(v) With
respect to any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, Additional Form 10-K Disclosure
or any Form 8-K Disclosure Information (collectively, the “Additional
Disclosure”) relating to the Trust Fund, the Trust Administrator’s obligation to
include such Additional Information in the applicable Exchange Act report is
subject to receipt from the entity that is indicated in Exhibit T as the
responsible party for providing that information, if other than the Trust
Administrator, as and when required as described in Section 4.05(a)(ii) through
(iv) above. Each of the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Trust Administrator
and Depositor hereby agree to notify and to provide, to the extent known, to
the
Trust Administrator and the Depositor, all Additional Disclosure relating to
the
Trust Fund, with respect to which such party is the responsible party for
providing that information, as indicated in Exhibit P hereof. The Swap Provider
will be obligated pursuant to the Swap Agreement to provide to the Trust
Administrator any information that may be required to be included in any Form
10-D, Form 8-K or Form 10-K. The Servicer shall be responsible for determining
the pool concentration applicable to any Sub-Servicer or originator at any
time,
for purposes of disclosure as required by Items 1108 and 1110 of Regulation
AB.
(vi) On
or
prior to January 30 of the first year in which the Trust Administrator is able
to do so under applicable law, the Trust Administrator shall prepare and file
a
Form 15 Suspension Notification relating to the automatic suspension of
reporting in respect of the Trust under the Exchange Act.
In
the
event that the Trust Administrator is unable to timely file with the Commission
all or any required portion of any Form 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K required
to
be filed by this Agreement because required disclosure information was either
not delivered to it or was delivered to it after the delivery deadlines set
forth in this Agreement or for any other reason, the Trust Administrator will
promptly notify electronically the Depositor. In the case of Form 10-D and
Form
10-K, the parties to this Agreement will cooperate to prepare and file a Form
12b-25 and a Form 10-D/A and Form 10-K/A as applicable, pursuant to Rule 12b-25
of the Exchange Act. In the case of Form 8-K, the Trust Administrator will,
upon
receipt of all required Form 8-K Disclosure Information and upon the approval
and direction of the Depositor, include such disclosure information on the
next
succeeding Form 10-D. In the event that any previously filed Form 8-K, Form
10-D
or Form 10-K needs to be amended, in connection with any Additional Form 10-D
Disclosure (other than, in the case of Form 10-D, for the purpose of restating
any Monthly Statement), Additional Form 10-K Disclosure or Form 8-K Disclosure
Information, the Trust Administrator will electronically notify the Depositor
and such other parties to the transaction as are affected by such amendment,
and
such parties will cooperate to prepare any necessary Form 8-K/A, Form 10-D/A
or
Form 10-K/A. Any Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K or Form
10-D
shall be signed by a duly authorized representative or senior officer in charge
of master servicing, as applicable, of the Master Servicer. The parties to
this
Agreement acknowledge that the performance by the Master Servicer and the Trust
Administrator of its duties under this Section 4.05(a)(vi) related to the timely
preparation, execution and filing of Form 15, a Form 12b-25 or any amendment
to
Form 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K is contingent upon each such party performing
its duties under this Section. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trust
Administrator shall have any liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim
arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare, execute
and/or timely file any such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Form
8-K,
Form 10-D or Form 10-K, where such failure results from the Trust
Administrator’s inability or failure to receive, on a timely basis, any
information from any other party hereto or any custodian, sub-servicer or
subcontractor needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 15,
Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Form 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K, not resulting
from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
The
Depositor agrees to promptly furnish to the Trust Administrator, from time
to
time upon request, such further information, reports and financial statements
within its control related to this Agreement and the Mortgage Loans as the
Trust
Administrator reasonably deems appropriate to prepare and file all necessary
reports with the Commission. The Trust Administrator shall have no
responsibility to file any items other than those specified in this Section
4.05; provided, however, the Trust Administrator will cooperate with the
Depositor in connection with any additional filings with respect to the Trust
Fund as the Depositor deems necessary under the Exchange Act. Fees and expenses
incurred by the Trust Administrator in connection with this Section 4.05 shall
not be reimbursable from the Trust Fund.
(b) (A)
The
Trust Administrator shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor and its
officers, directors and affiliates from and against any losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related
costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon
(i) a
breach of the Trust Administrator’s obligations under this Section 4.05 or the

therewith or (ii) any material misstatement or omission in the Annual Statement
of Compliance and the Assessment of Compliance delivered by the Trust
Administrator pursuant to Section 3.20 and Section 3.21.

or omission in the Statement as to Compliance delivered by the Master Servicer
pursuant to Section 3.20 or the Assessment of Compliance delivered by the Master
Servicer pursuant to Section 3.21.
(D) The
Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Master Servicer, Trust
Administrator and the Depositor and their respective officers, directors and
affiliates from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other
costs
and expenses arising out of or based upon (i) a breach of the obligations of
the
Servicer under Section 3.20, Section 3.21 or Section 4.06, including any failure
by the Servicer (or any Sub-Servicer or any Subcontractor engaged by the
Servicer), to provide any Back-Up Certification, annual statement of compliance,
annual assessment of compliance with Servicing Criteria or attestation report,
any information, data or materials required to be included in any Exchange
Act
report or any other information or material when and as required under Sections
3.20, 3.21 or 4.05, or the Servicer’s negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct in connection therewith and (ii) any
material misstatement or omission contained in any information, disclosure,
report, certification, data, accountants’ letter or other material provided
under Sections 3.20, 3.21 and 4.05 to the Master Servicer or the Trust
Administrator by or on behalf of the Servicer or on behalf of any Sub-Servicer
or Subcontractor), including any material misstatement or material omission
in
(i) any Back-Up Certification, annual statement of compliance, annual assessment
of compliance with Servicing Criteria or attestation report delivered by the
Servicer, or by any Sub-Servicer or Subcontractor engaged by it, pursuant to
this Agreement, or (ii) any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, Additional Form
10-K Disclosure or Form 8-K Disclosure Information provided by the
Servicer.
(E) The
Trustee (and in its capacity as Custodian) shall indemnify and hold harmless
the
Master Servicer, Trust Administrator and the Depositor and their respective
officers, directors and affiliates from and against any losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related

including any failure by the Trustee, to provide any annual assessment of
compliance or attestation report, any information, data or materials required
to
be included in any Exchange Act report or any other information or material
when

(F) If
the

Administrator, as applicable, then the defaulting party, in connection with
a
breach of its respective obligations under this Section 4.05 or its respective
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith, agrees
that
it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the other parties as a
result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the other party in

benefit of the respective parties. This indemnification shall survive the
termination of this Agreement or the termination of any party to this
Agreement.
(c) Nothing
shall be construed from the foregoing subsections (a) and (b) to require the
Trust Administrator or any officer, director or Affiliate thereof to sign any
Form 10-K or any certification contained therein. Furthermore, the inability
of
the Trust Administrator to file a Form 10-K as a result of the lack of required
information as set forth in Section 4.05(a) or required signatures on such
Form
10-K or any certification contained therein shall not be regarded as a breach
by
the Trust Administrator of any obligation under this Agreement.
(d) Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 11.01, this Section 4.05 may be amended without the
consent of the Certificateholders.

has been reduced to zero, and second, to REMIC 1 Regular Interest I-1-A through
REMIC 1 Regular Interest I-28-B, starting with the lowest numerical denomination

for
REMIC 1 Regular Interests with the same numerical denomination, such Realized
Losses shall be allocated pro
rata

| SECTION 4.10 |
Swap
Account.
|
(a) On
the
Closing Date, there is hereby established a separate trust (the “Supplemental
Interest Trust”), into which the Depositor shall deposit the Interest Rate Swap
Agreement. The Supplemental Interest Trust shall be maintained by the
Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee. No later than the Closing Date, the
Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall establish and maintain a separate,
segregated trust account to be held in the Supplemental Interest Trust, titled,
“Swap Account, Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A., as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee,
in trust for the registered Certificateholders of Fremont Home Loan Trust
2006-2, Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006-2.” Such account shall be an
Eligible Account and funds on deposit therein shall be held separate and apart
from, and shall not be commingled with, any other moneys, including, without
limitation, other moneys of the Trust Administrator held pursuant to this
Agreement. Amounts therein shall be held uninvested.
(b) On
each
Distribution Date, prior to any distribution to any Certificate, the
Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall deposit into the Swap Account: (i)
the
amount of any Net Swap Payment or Swap Termination Payment (other than any
Swap
Termination Payment resulting from a Swap Provider Trigger Event) owed to the
Swap Provider (after taking into account any upfront payment received from
the
counterparty to a replacement interest rate swap agreement) from funds collected
and received with respect to the Mortgage Loans prior to the determination
of
Available Funds. For federal income tax purposes, any amounts paid to the Swap
Provider on each Distribution Date shall first be deemed paid to the Swap
Provider in respect of REMIC 6 Regular Interest SWAP IO to the extent of the
amount distributable on REMIC 6 Regular Interest SWAP IO on such Distribution
Date, and any remaining amount shall be deemed paid to the Swap Provider in
respect of a Class IO Distribution Amount (as defined below).
(c) It
is the
intention of the parties hereto that, for federal and state income and state
and
local franchise tax purposes, the Supplemental Interest Trust be disregarded
as
an entity separate from the Holder of the Class C Certificates unless and until
the date when either (a) there is more than one Class C Certificateholder or
(b)
any Class of Certificates in addition to the Class C Certificates is
recharacterized as an equity interest in the Supplemental Interest Trust for
federal income tax purposes, in which case it is the intention of the parties
hereto that, for federal and state income and state and local franchise tax
purposes, the Supplemental Interest Trust be treated as a partnership; provided,
that the Trust Administrator shall not be required to prepare and file
partnership tax returns in respect of such partnership unless it receives
additional reasonable compensation (not to exceed $10,000 per year) for the
preparation of such filings, written notification recognizing the creation
of a
partnership agreement or comparable documentation evidencing the partnership,
if
any. The Supplemental Interest Trust will be an “outside reserve fund” within
the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h).
(d) To
the
extent that the Supplemental Interest Trust is determined to be a separate
legal
entity from the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee, any obligation of the
Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement
shall
be deemed to be an obligation of the Supplemental Interest Trust.
(e) The
Trust
Administrator shall treat the Holders of Certificates (other than the Class
P,
Class C, Class R and Class R-X Certificates) as having entered into a notional
principal contract with respect to the Holders of the Class C Certificates.
Pursuant to each such notional principal contract, all Holders of Certificates
(other than the Class P, Class C, Class R and Class R-X Certificates) shall
be
treated as having agreed to pay, on each Distribution Date, to the Holder of
the
Class C Certificates an aggregate amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i)
the
amount payable on such Distribution Date on the REMIC 2 Regular Interest
corresponding to such Class of Certificates over (ii) the amount payable on
such
Class of Certificates on such Distribution Date (such excess, a “Class
IO
Distribution Amount”). A Class IO Distribution Amount payable from interest
collections shall be allocated pro
rata
among
such Certificates based on the excess of (a) the amount of interest otherwise
payable to such Certificates over (ii) the amount of interest payable to such
Certificates at a per annum rate equal to the Net WAC Rate, and a Class IO
Distribution Amount payable from principal collections shall be allocated to
the
most subordinate Class of Certificates with an outstanding principal balance
to
the extent of such balance. In addition, pursuant to such notional principal
contract, the Holder of the Class C Certificates shall be treated as having
agreed to pay Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts to the Holders of the Certificates
(other than the Class C, Class P, Class R and Class R-X Certificates) in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any payments to the Certificates
from amounts deemed received in respect of this notional principal contract
shall not be payments with respect to a Regular Interest in a REMIC within
the
meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(1). However, any payment from the Certificates
(other than the Class C, Class P, Class R and Class R-X Certificates) of a
Class
IO Distribution Amount shall be treated for tax purposes as having been received
by the Holders of such Certificates in respect of their interests in REMIC
3 and
as having been paid by such Holders pursuant to the notional principal contract.
Thus, each Certificate (other than the Class P and Class R Certificates) shall
be treated as representing not only ownership of Regular Interests in REMIC
2,
but also ownership of an interest in, and obligations with respect to, a
notional principal contract.
(f) The
Trust
Administrator shall, at the direction of the Depositor, enforce all of its
rights and exercise any remedies under the Swap Agreement. In the event the
Swap
Agreement is terminated as a result of the designation by either party thereto
of an Early Termination Date (as defined therein), the Trust Administrator
shall, at the direction of the Depositor, appoint a replacement counterparty
to
enter into a replacement swap agreement. The Trust Administrator shall have
no
responsibility with regard to the selection of a replacement swap provider
or
the negotiation of a replacement swap agreement. Any Swap Termination Payment
received by the Trust Administrator shall be deposited in the Swap Account
and
shall be used to make any upfront payment required under a replacement swap
agreement and any upfront payment received from the counterparty to a
replacement swap agreement shall be used to pay any Swap Termination Payment
owed to the Swap Provider.
(g) For
federal tax return and information reporting, the right of the Holders of the
Fixed Rate Certificates and Floating Rate Certificates to receive payments
from
the Supplemental Interest Trust shall be assigned a value of
$13,204,501.
| SECTION 4.11 |
Tax
Treatment of Swap Payments and Swap Termination
Payments.
|
For
federal income tax purposes, each holder of a Floating Rate Certificate is
deemed to own an undivided beneficial ownership interest in a REMIC regular
interest and the right to receive payments from either the Net WAC Rate
Carryover Reserve Account or the Swap Account in respect of the Net WAC Rate
Carryover Amount or the obligation to make payments to the Swap Account. For
federal income tax purposes, the Trust Administrator will account for payments
to each Floating Rate Certificates as follows: each Floating Rate Certificate
will be treated as receiving their entire payment from REMIC 3 (regardless
of
any Swap Termination Payment or obligation under the Interest Rate Swap
Agreement) and subsequently paying their portion of any Swap Termination Payment
in respect of each such Class’ obligation under the Interest Rate Swap
Agreement. In the event that any such Class is resecuritized in a REMIC, the
obligation under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement to pay any such Swap
Termination Payment (or any shortfall in Swap Provider Fee), will be made by
one
or more of the REMIC Regular Interests issued by the resecuritization REMIC
subsequent to such REMIC Regular Interest receiving its full payment from any
such Floating Rate Certificate.
The
REMIC
regular interest corresponding to a Floating Rate Certificate will be entitled
to receive interest and principal payments at the times and in the amounts
equal
to those made on the certificate to which it corresponds, except that (i) the
maximum interest rate of that REMIC regular interest will equal the Net WAC
Rate
computed for this purpose by limiting the Base Calculation Amount of the
Interest Rate Swap Agreement to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loans and (ii) any Swap Termination Payment will be treated as being
payable solely from Net Monthly Excess Cashflow. As a result of the foregoing,
the amount of distributions and taxable income on the REMIC regular interest
corresponding to a Floating Rate Certificate may exceed the actual amount of
distributions on the Floating Rate Certificate.

The
Certificates.
|
Each
of
the Fixed Rate Certificates, the Floating Rate Certificates, the Class P
Certificates, the Class C Certificates and the Residual Certificates shall
be
substantially in the forms annexed hereto as exhibits, and shall, on original
issue, be executed, authenticated and delivered by the Trust Administrator
to or
upon the order of the Depositor concurrently with the sale and assignment to
the
Trust Administrator of the Trust Fund. The Fixed Rate Certificates and the
Floating Rate Certificates shall be initially evidenced by one or more
Certificates representing a Percentage Interest with a minimum dollar
denomination of $25,000 and integral dollar multiples of $1.00 in excess
thereof; provided, that the Fixed Rate Certificates and the Floating Rate
Certificates must be purchased in minimum total investments of $100,000 per
Class and that one Certificate of each such Class of Certificates may be in
a
different denomination so that the sum of the denominations of all outstanding
Certificates of such Class shall equal the Certificate Principal Balance of
such
Class on the Closing Date. The Class C Certificates, the Class P Certificates
and the Residual Certificates are issuable in any Percentage Interests;
provided, however, that the sum of all such percentages for each such Class
totals 100% and no more than ten Certificates of each Class may be issued and
outstanding at any one time.
The
Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Trust Administrator by manual
or
facsimile signature on behalf of the Trust Administrator by a Responsible
Officer. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals
who were, at the time when such signatures were affixed, authorized to sign
on
behalf of the Trust Administrator shall bind the Trust, notwithstanding that
such individuals or any of them have ceased to be so authorized prior to the
authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices
at
the date of such Certificate. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit
under this Agreement or be valid for any purpose, unless such Certificate shall
have been manually authenticated by the Trust Administrator substantially in
the
form provided for herein, and such authentication upon any Certificate shall
be
conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been
duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the
date
of their authentication. Subject to Section 5.02(c), the Fixed Rate Certificates
and the Floating Rate Certificates shall be Book-Entry Certificates. The other
Classes of Certificates shall not be Book-Entry Certificates.
| SECTION 5.02 |
Registration

Certificates.
|
(a) The
Certificate Registrar shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office
a
Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it
may
prescribe, the Certificate Registrar shall provide for the registration of
Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided.
The Trust Administrator shall initially serve as Certificate Registrar for
the
purpose of registering Certificates and transfers and exchanges of Certificates
as herein provided.
Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at any office or
agency of the Certificate Registrar maintained for such purpose pursuant to
the
foregoing paragraph which office shall initially be the offices of the Trust
Administrator’s agent located at Xxxxx Xxxxxx xxx Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxx,

conditions set forth below, the Trust Administrator on behalf of the Trust
shall
execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee
or
transferees, one or more new Certificates of the same aggregate Percentage
Interest.
At
the
option of the Certificateholders, Certificates may be exchanged for other
Certificates in authorized denominations and the same aggregate Percentage
Interests, upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at any such office
or agency. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trust
Administrator shall execute on behalf of the Trust and authenticate and deliver
the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled
to
receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer
or exchange shall (if so required by the Trust Administrator or the Certificate
Registrar) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer satisfactory to the Trust Administrator and the Certificate Registrar
duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
In addition, (i) with respect to each Class R Certificate, the holder thereof
may exchange, in the manner described above, such Class R Certificate for four
separate certificates, each representing such holder’s respective Percentage
Interest in the Class R-1 Interest, the Class R-2 Interest and the Class R-3
Interest that was evidenced by the Class R Certificate being exchanged and
(ii)
with respect to each Class R-X Certificate, the holder thereof may exchange,
in
the manner described above, such Class R-X Certificate for three separate
certificates, each representing such holder’s respective Percentage Interest in
the Class R-4 Interest, the Class R-5 Interest and the Class R-6 Interest that
was evidenced by the Class R-X Certificate being exchanged.
(b) Except
as
provided in paragraph (c) below, the Book-Entry Certificates shall at all times
remain registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and at all times:
(i) registration of such Certificates may not be transferred by the Trust
Administrator except to another Depository; (ii) the Depository shall maintain
book-entry records with respect to the Certificate Owners and with respect
to
ownership and transfers of such Certificates; (iii) ownership and transfers
of
registration of such Certificates on the books of the Depository shall be
governed by applicable rules established by the Depository; (iv) the Depository
may collect its usual and customary fees, charges and expenses from its
Depository Participants; (v) The Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Master
Servicer and the Depositor may for all purposes deal with the Depository as
representative of the Certificate Owners of the Certificates for purposes of
exercising the rights of Holders under this Agreement, and requests and
directions for and votes of such representative shall not be deemed to be
inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners;
(vi)
the Trust Administrator may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon
information furnished by the Depository with respect to its Depository
Participants and furnished by the Depository Participants with respect to
indirect participating firms and Persons shown on the books of such indirect
participating firms as direct or indirect Certificate Owners; and (vii) the
direct participants of the Depository shall have no rights under this Agreement
under or with respect to any of the Certificates held on their behalf by the
Depository, and the Depository may be treated by the Trust Administrator and
its
agents, employees, officers and directors as the absolute owner of the
Certificates for all purposes whatsoever.
All
transfers by Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates shall be made in
accordance with the procedures established by the Depository Participant or
brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owners. Each Depository Participant
shall only transfer Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners that it
represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with
the Depository’s normal procedures. The parties hereto are hereby authorized to
execute a Letter of Representations with the Depository or take such other
action as may be necessary or desirable to register a Book-Entry Certificate
to
the Depository. In the event of any conflict between the terms of any such
Letter of Representation and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall
control.
(c) If
(i)(x)
the Depository or the Depositor advises the Trust Administrator in writing
that
the Depository is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its
responsibilities as Depository and (y) the Trustee or the Depositor is unable
to
locate a qualified successor or (ii) after the occurrence of a Servicer Event
of
Termination or a Master Servicer Event of Termination, the Certificate Owners
of
the Book-Entry Certificates representing Percentage Interests of such Classes
aggregating not less than 51% advise the Trust Administrator and Depository
through the Financial Intermediaries and the Depository Participants in writing
that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Depository to the
exclusion of definitive, fully registered certificates (the “Definitive
Certificates”) to Certificate Owners is no longer in the best interests of the
Certificate Owners. Upon surrender to the Certificate Registrar of the
Book-Entry Certificates by the Depository, accompanied by registration
instructions from the Depository for registration, the Trust Administrator
shall
in the case of (i) and (ii) above, execute on behalf of the Trust and
authenticate the Definitive Certificates. None of the Depositor, the Master
Servicer, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust Administrator shall be liable
for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on,
and
shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of
Definitive Certificates, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Certificate
Registrar, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, any Paying Agent and the Depositor
shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders
hereunder.
(d) No
transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Class
B-1
Certificate,
Class
B-2 Certificate, Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual
Certificate (the “Private Certificates”) shall be made unless such disposition
is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933,
as
amended (the “1933 Act”), and any applicable state securities laws or is made in
accordance with the 1933 Act and laws. In the event of any such transfer (other
than in connection with (i) the initial transfer of any such Certificate by
the
Depositor to an Affiliate of the Depositor or, in the case of the Class R-X
Certificates, the first transfer by an Affiliate of the Depositor or the first
transfer by the initial transferee of an Affiliate of the Depositor, (ii) the
transfer of any such Class C, Class P or Residual Certificate to the issuer
under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture or (iii) a
transfer of any such Class C, Class P or Residual Certificate from the issuer
under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture to the
Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor), (x) unless such transfer is made
in
reliance upon Rule 144A (as evidenced by the investment letter delivered to
the
Trust Administrator, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit J)
under the 1933 Act, the Trust Administrator and the Depositor shall require
a
written Opinion of Counsel (which may be in-house counsel) acceptable to and
in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trust Administrator and the
Depositor that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing
the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from the 1933 Act or is being
made pursuant to the 1933 Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense
of the Trust Administrator or the Depositor or (y) the Trust Administrator
shall
require the transferor to execute a transferor certificate (in substantially
the
form attached hereto as Exhibit L) and the transferee to execute an investment
letter (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit J) acceptable
to
and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the
Trust
Administrator certifying to the Depositor and the Trust Administrator the facts
surrounding such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense
of
the Trust Administrator or the Depositor. The Holder of a Private Certificate
desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify
the
Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Depositor against any liability that
may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with
such federal and state laws.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, in the event of any such transfer of any Ownership Interest
in
any Private Certificate that is a Book-Entry Certificate, except with respect
to
the initial transfer of any such Ownership Interest by the Depositor, such
transfer shall be required to be made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the
1933
Act, and the transferor will be deemed to have made each of the transferor
representations and warranties set forth Exhibit L hereto in respect of such
interest as if it was evidenced by a Definitive Certificate and the transferee
will be deemed to have made each of the transferee representations and
warranties set forth Exhibit J hereto in respect of such interest as if it
was
evidenced by a Definitive Certificate. The Certificate Owner of any such
Ownership Interest in any such Book-Entry Certificate desiring to effect such
transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trust Administrator
and
the Depositor against any liability that may result if the transfer is not
so
exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state
laws.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no certification or Opinion of Counsel described above in this
Section 5.02(d) will be required in connection with the transfer, on the Closing
Date, of any Residual Certificate by the Depositor to an “accredited investor”
within the meaning of Rule 501 of the 1933 Act.
No
transfer of a Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual Certificate
or any interest therein shall be made to any Plan subject to ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any
such Plan or any Person acquiring such Certificates with “Plan Assets” of a Plan
within the meaning of the Department of Labor regulation promulgated at 29
C.F.R. § 2510.3-101 (“Plan Assets”), as certified by such transferee in the form
of Exhibit M, unless the Trust Administrator is provided with an Opinion of
Counsel for the benefit of the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Depositor,
the Master Servicer and the Servicer and on which they may rely which
establishes to the satisfaction of the Depositor, the Trust Administrator,
the
Servicer and the Master Servicer that the purchase of such Certificates is
permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or result in any
prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not
subject the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Trust
Administrator, the Trustee or the Trust Fund to any obligation or liability
(including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code)
in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel
shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Servicer,
the
Trust Administrator, the Trustee or the Trust Fund. Neither a certification
nor
an Opinion of Counsel will be required in connection with (i) the initial
transfer of any such Certificate by the Depositor to an Affiliate of the
Depositor, (ii) the transfer of any such Class C Certificate, Class P
Certificate or Residual Certificate to the issuer under the Indenture or the
indenture trustee under the Indenture or (iii) a transfer of any such Class
C
Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual Certificate from the issuer under
the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture to the Depositor
or
an Affiliate of the Depositor (in which case, the Depositor or any Affiliate
thereof shall have deemed to have represented that such Affiliate is not a
Plan
or a Person investing Plan Assets) and the Trust Administrator shall be entitled
to conclusively rely upon a representation (which, upon the request of the
Trust
Administrator, shall be a written representation) from the Depositor of the
status of such transferee as an affiliate of the Depositor.
For
so
long as the Supplemental Interest Trust is in existence, each beneficial owner
of a Floating Rate Certificate or any interest therein, shall be deemed to
have
represented, by virtue of its acquisition or holding of the Floating Rate
Certificate, or interest therein, that either (i) it is not a Plan or (ii)
(A)
it is an accredited investor within the meaning of Prohibited Transaction
Exemption (“PTE”) 90-59, 55 Fed. Reg. 36724 (September 6, 1990), as amended by
PTE 97-34, 62 Fed. Reg. 39021 (July 21, 1997), PTE 2000-58, 65 Fed. Reg. 67765
(November 13, 2000) and PTE 2002-41, 67 Fed. Reg. 54487 (August 22, 2002) (the
“Exemption”) and (B) the acquisition and holding of such Certificate and the
separate right to receive payments from the Supplemental Interest Trust are
eligible for the exemptive relief available under Prohibited Transaction Class
Exemption (“PTCE”) 84-14, 91-38, 90-1, 95-60 or 96-23, in the case of a
Mezzanine Certificate or PTCE 95-60, in the case of a Class B
Certificate.
Subsequent
to the termination of the Supplemental Interest Trust, each Transferee of a
Mezzanine Certificate or Class B Certificate will be deemed to have represented
by virtue of its purchase or holding of such Certificate (or interest therein)
that either (a) such Transferee is not a Plan or purchasing such Certificate
with Plan Assets, (b) in the case of a Mezzanine Certificate, it has acquired
and is holding such Certificate in reliance on the Exemption and that it
understands that there are certain conditions to the availability of the
Exemption including that such Certificate must be rated, at the time of
purchase, not lower than “BBB-” (or its equivalent) by a Rating Agency or (c)
the following conditions are satisfied: (i) such Transferee is an insurance
company, (ii) the source of funds used to purchase or hold such Certificate
(or
interest therein) is an “insurance company general account” (as defined in U.S.
Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 95-60, and
(iii) the conditions set forth in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been
satisfied.
If
any
Mezzanine Certificate or Private Certificate or any interest therein is acquired
or held in violation of the provisions of the two preceding paragraphs, the
next
preceding permitted beneficial owner will be treated as the beneficial owner
of
that Certificate retroactive to the date of transfer to the purported beneficial
owner. Any purported beneficial owner whose acquisition or holding of any such
Certificate or interest therein was effected in violation of the provisions
of
the two preceding paragraphs shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor,
the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the Trustee, the
NIMS Insurer and the Trust from and against any and all liabilities, claims,
costs or expenses incurred by those parties as a result of that acquisition
or
holding.
Each
Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate
shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest
to
have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and to have irrevocably
appointed the Depositor 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 Ownership Interest
in
a Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the following
provisions:
(i) Each
Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate
shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly notify the Trust
Administrator of any change or impending change in its status as a Permitted
Transferee.
(ii) No
Person
shall acquire an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate unless such
Ownership Interest is a pro
rata
undivided interest.
(iii) In
connection with any proposed transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate, the Trust Administrator shall as a condition to registration of
the
transfer, require delivery to it, in form and substance satisfactory to it,
of
each of the following:
|
(A)
|
an
affidavit in the form of Exhibit K hereto from the proposed transferee
to
the effect that such transferee is a Permitted Transferee and that
it is
not acquiring its Ownership Interest in the Residual Certificate
that is
the subject of the proposed transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent
for
any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee;
and
|
|
(B)
|
a
covenant of the proposed transferee to the effect that the proposed
transferee agrees to be bound by and to abide by the transfer restrictions
applicable to the Residual
Certificates.
|
(iv) Any
attempted or purported transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section shall be absolutely
null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. If any
purported transferee shall, in violation of the provisions of this Section,
become a Holder of a Residual Certificate, then the prior Holder of such
Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee shall, upon discovery that
the registration of transfer of such Residual Certificate was not in fact
permitted by this Section, be restored to all rights as Holder thereof
retroactive to the date of registration of transfer of such Residual
Certificate. The Trust Administrator shall be under no liability to any Person
for any registration of transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact
not
permitted by this Section or for making any distributions due on such Residual
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 Trust
Administrator received the documents specified in clause (iii). The Trust
Administrator shall be entitled to recover from any Holder of a Residual
Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted Transferee at the time such
distributions were made all distributions made on such Residual Certificate.
Any
such distributions so recovered by the Trust Administrator shall be distributed
and delivered by the Trust Administrator to the prior Holder of such Residual
Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee.
(v) If
any
Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in
a
Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section, then
the
Trust Administrator shall have the right but not the obligation, without notice
to the Holder of such Residual Certificate or any other Person having an
Ownership Interest therein, to notify the Depositor to arrange for the sale
of
such Residual Certificate. The proceeds of such sale, net of commissions (which
may include commissions payable to the Depositor or its affiliates in connection
with such sale), expenses and taxes due, if any, will be remitted by the Trust
Administrator to the previous Holder of such Residual Certificate that is a
Permitted Transferee, except that in the event that the Trust Administrator
determines that the Holder of such Residual Certificate may be liable for any
amount due under this Section or any other provisions of this Agreement, the
Trust Administrator 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 Trust Administrator and
it
shall not be liable to any Person having an Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate as a result of its exercise of such discretion.
(vi) If
any
Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in
a
Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section, then
the
Trust Administrator upon receipt of reasonable compensation will provide to
the
Internal Revenue Service, and to the persons specified in Sections 860E(e)(3)
and (6) of the Code, information needed to compute the tax imposed under Section
860E(e)(5) of the Code on transfers of residual interests to disqualified
organizations.
The
foregoing provisions of this Section shall cease to apply to transfers occurring
on or after the date on which there shall have been delivered to the Trust
Administrator, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trust Administrator,
(i) written notification from each Rating Agency that the removal of the
restrictions on transfer set forth in this Section will not cause such Rating
Agency to downgrade its rating of the Certificates and (ii) an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such removal will not cause any REMIC created
hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC.
(e) No
service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of
Certificates of any Class, 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 registration of transfer or exchange shall be
canceled by the Certificate Registrar and disposed of pursuant to its standard
procedures.
| SECTION 5.03 |
Mutilated,
Destroyed, Lost or Stolen
Certificates.
|
If
(i)
any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar or the
Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction,
loss or theft of any Certificate and (ii) there is delivered to the Trustee,
the
Depositor and the Certificate Registrar such security or indemnity as may be
required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice
to the Trustee Administrator, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar that
such
Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Trust Administrator
shall execute on behalf of the Trust, authenticate and deliver, in exchange
for
or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a
new
Certificate of like tenor and Percentage Interest. Upon the issuance of any
new
Certificate under this Section, the Trust Administrator or the Certificate
Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar) in connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant
to
this Section, shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership
in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or
destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.
| SECTION 5.04 |
Persons
Deemed Owners.
|
The
Servicer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the
Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent and any agent of the
Servicer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the
Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any Paying Agent may treat the Person,
including a Depository, in whose name any Certificate is registered as the
owner
of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to
Section 4.01 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Depositor,
the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar or any Paying Agent nor any agent of any of them shall be affected
by
notice to the contrary.
| SECTION 5.05 |
Appointment
of Paying Agent.
|
(a) The
Paying Agent shall make distributions to Certificateholders from the
Distribution Account pursuant to Section 4.01. The duties of the Paying Agent
may include the obligation (i) to withdraw funds from the Collection Account
pursuant to Section 3.11(a) and for the purpose of making the distributions
referred to above and (ii) to distribute statements and provide information
to
Certificateholders as required hereunder. The Paying Agent hereunder shall
at
all times be an entity duly organized and validly existing under the laws of
the
United States of America or any state thereof, authorized under such laws to
exercise corporate trust powers and subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authorities. The Paying Agent shall initially be the Trust
Administrator.

THE
MASTER SERVICER AND THE DEPOSITOR
| SECTION 6.01 |
Liability
of the Master Servicer, the Servicer and the
Depositor.
|
The
Master Servicer and the Servicer shall be liable in accordance herewith only
to
the extent of the obligations specifically imposed upon and undertaken by the
Master Servicer and Servicer herein. The Depositor shall be liable in accordance
herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed upon and
undertaken by the Depositor.
| SECTION 6.02 |
Merger
or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the Obligations of, the Master
Servicer or the Depositor.
|
Any
entity into which the Servicer, the Master Servicer or Depositor may be merged
or consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Servicer the Master Servicer or the Depositor shall
be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the business of the Servicer the
Master Servicer or the Depositor, shall be the successor of the Servicer the
Master Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, hereunder, without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the
parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided,
however, that the successor Servicer shall satisfy all the requirements of
Section 7.02 with respect to the qualifications of a successor
Servicer.
| SECTION 6.03 |
Limitation
on Liability of the Servicer, the Master Servicer and
Others.
|
Neither
the Master Servicer, the Servicer or the Depositor nor any of the directors
or
officers or employees or agents of the Master Servicer, the Servicer or the
Depositor shall be under any liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders
for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action by the
Master Servicer, the Servicer or the Depositor in good faith pursuant to this
Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision
shall not protect the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Depositor or any such
Person against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of
its
willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties of
the
Master Servicer, the Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, or by reason
of its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties of the Master Servicer,
the Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, hereunder; provided, further,
that this provision shall not be construed to entitle the Master Servicer and
the Servicer to indemnity in the event that amounts advanced by the Master
Servicer and the Servicer to retire any senior lien exceed Liquidation Proceeds
(in excess of related liquidation expenses) realized with respect to the related
Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer and the Servicer and any director or officer
or employee or agent of the Master Servicer and the Servicer may rely in good
faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted
by
any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Master Servicer and
the
Servicer and the Depositor, and any director or officer or employee or agent
of
the Master Servicer and the Servicer or the Depositor, shall be indemnified
by
the Trust and held harmless against (i) 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 related to any specific
Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense
shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) and any loss,
liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith
or
negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of its reckless
disregard of obligations and duties hereunder or (ii) any breach of a
representation or warranty by the Originator regarding the Mortgage Loans.
The
Master Servicer, the Servicer or the Depositor may undertake any such action
which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement, and
the
rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the
Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the reasonable legal expenses
and
costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses,
costs and liabilities of the Trust and the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
or
the Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection
Account as and to the extent provided in Section 3.11, any such right of
reimbursement being prior to the rights of the Certificateholders to receive
any
amount in the Collection Account. The Master Servicer’s and the Servicer’s right
to indemnity or reimbursement pursuant to this Section shall survive any
resignation or termination of the Master Servicer and the Servicer pursuant
to
Section 6.04 or 7.01 with respect to any losses, expenses, costs or liabilities
arising prior to such resignation or termination (or arising from events that
occurred prior to such resignation or termination). This paragraph shall apply
to the Master Servicer and the Servicer solely in their capacity as Master
Servicer and Servicer hereunder and in no other capacities.
| SECTION 6.04 |
Limitation
on Resignation of the Servicer; Assignment of Master
Servicing.
|
The
Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on
it
except upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible
under applicable law. Any such determination pursuant to the preceding sentence
permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion
of
Counsel to such effect obtained at the expense of the Servicer and delivered
to
the Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Master Servicer. No resignation
of
the Servicer shall become effective until the Master Servicer or (if the Master
Servicer is the Servicer) the Trustee or a successor servicer shall have assumed
the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other than those
liabilities arising prior to the appointment of such successor) and obligations
under this Agreement.
Except
as
expressly provided herein, the Servicer shall not assign or transfer any of
its
rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to any other Person, or delegate to
or
subcontract with, or authorize or appoint any other Person to perform any of
the
duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by the Servicer hereunder.
The
foregoing prohibition on assignment shall not prohibit the Servicer from
designating a Sub-Servicer as payee of any indemnification amount payable to
the
Servicer hereunder; provided, however, no Sub-Servicer shall be a third-party
beneficiary hereunder and the parties hereto shall not be required to recognize
any Subservicer as an indemnitee under this Agreement.
The
Master Servicer may sell, assign or delegate its rights, duties and obligations
as Master Servicer under this Agreement in their entirety; provided, however,
that: (i) the purchaser or transferee accepting such sale, assignment and
delegation (a) shall be a Person qualified to service mortgage loans for Xxxxxx
Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac; (b) shall have a net worth of not less than $50,000,000
(unless otherwise approved by each Rating Agency pursuant to clause (ii) below);
(c) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (as evidenced in a writing
signed by the Trustee); and (d) shall execute and deliver to the Trustee an
agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, which
contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual performance and
observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by it
as
master servicer under this Agreement from and after the effective date of such
assumption agreement; (ii) each Rating Agency shall be given prior written
notice of the identity of the proposed successor to the Master Servicer and
shall confirm in writing to the Master Servicer and the Trustee that any such
sale, assignment or delegation would not result in a withdrawal or a downgrading
of the rating on any Class of Certificates in effect immediately prior to such
sale, assignment or delegation; and (iii) the Master Servicer shall deliver
to
the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating
that all conditions precedent to such action under this Agreement have been
fulfilled and such action is permitted by and complies with the terms of this
Agreement. No such sale, assignment or delegation shall affect any liability
of
the Master Servicer arising prior to the effective date thereof.
| SECTION 6.05 |
Successor
Master Servicer.
|
In
connection with the appointment of any successor Master Servicer or the
assumption of the duties of the Master Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustee
may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor Master
Servicer out of payments on the Mortgage Loans as the Depositor or the Trustee
and such successor Master Servicer shall agree. If the successor Master Servicer
does not agree that such market value is a fair price, such successor Master
Servicer shall obtain two quotations of market value from third parties actively
engaged in the master servicing of single-family mortgage loans. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the compensation payable to a successor Master Servicer may
not
exceed the compensation which the Master Servicer would have been entitled
to
retain if the Master Servicer had continued to act as Master Servicer
hereunder.
| SECTION 6.06 |
Delegation
of Duties.
|
In
the
ordinary course of business, the Servicer at any time may delegate any of its
duties hereunder to any Person, including any of its Affiliates, who agrees
to
conduct such duties in accordance with standards comparable to those set forth
in Section 3.01. Such delegation shall not relieve the Servicer of its
liabilities and responsibilities with respect to such duties and shall not
constitute a resignation within the meaning of Section 6.04. Except as provided
in Section 3.02, no such delegation is permitted that results in the delegee
subservicing any Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall provide the Trustee, the
Trust Administrator and the NIMS Insurer with written notice prior to the
delegation of any of its duties to any Person other than any of the Servicer’s
Affiliates or their respective successors and assigns.
| SECTION 6.07 |
[Reserved].
|
| SECTION 6.08 |
Inspection.
|
The
Servicer, in its capacity as Servicer, shall afford the Depositor, the Master
Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee, upon
reasonable notice, during normal business hours, access to all records
maintained by the Servicer in respect of its rights and obligations hereunder
and access to officers of the Servicer responsible for such
obligations.
| SECTION 6.09 |
Duties
of the Credit Risk Manager.
|
For
and on behalf of the Depositor, the Credit Risk Manager will provide reports
and
recommendations concerning certain delinquent and defaulted Mortgage Loans,
and
as to the collection of any Prepayment Charges with respect to the Mortgage
Loans. Such reports and recommendations will be based upon information provided
to the Credit Risk Manager pursuant to the respective Credit Risk Management
Agreement, and the Credit Risk Manager shall look solely to the Servicer and/or
Master Servicer, as applicable, for all information and data (including loss
and
delinquency information and data) relating to the servicing of the Mortgage
Loans. Upon any termination of the Credit Risk Manager or the appointment of
a
successor Credit Risk Manager, the Depositor shall give written notice thereof
to the Servicer, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator
and
each Rating Agency. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the termination of the Credit
Risk Manager pursuant to this Section shall not become effective until the
appointment of a successor Credit Risk Manager.
| SECTION 6.10 |
Limitation
Upon Liability of the Credit Risk
Manager.
|
Neither
the Credit Risk Manager, nor any of its directors, officers, employees, or
agents shall be under any liability to the Trustee, the Certificateholders,
the
Trust Administrator, the Servicer and/or the Master Servicer or the Depositor
for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action made in
good faith pursuant to this Agreement, in reliance upon information provided
by
the Servicer and/or the Master Servicer under the Credit Risk Management
Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision
shall not protect the Credit Risk Manager or any such person against liability
that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful malfeasance or bad faith
in
its performance of its duties. The Credit Risk Manager and any director,
officer, employee, or agent of the Credit Risk Manager may rely in good faith
on
any document of any kind prima
facie
properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising
hereunder, and may rely in good faith upon the accuracy of information furnished
by the Servicer and/or the Master Servicer pursuant to the Credit Risk
Management Agreement in the performance of its duties thereunder and
hereunder.
| SECTION 6.11 |
Removal
of the Credit Risk Manager.
|
The
Credit Risk Manager may be removed as Credit Risk Manager by Certificateholders
holding not less than 66 2/3% of the Voting Rights in the Trust Fund, in the
exercise of its or their sole discretion. The Certificateholders shall provide
written notice of the Credit Risk Manager’s removal to the Trust Administrator.
Upon receipt of such notice, the Trust Administrator shall provide written
notice to the Credit Risk Manager of its removal, which shall be effective
upon
receipt of such notice by the Credit Risk Manager.

Rights, by notice in writing to the Depositor, the Master Servicer (and to
the
Trustee if given by such Certificateholders), with a copy to the Rating
Agencies, may terminate all of the rights and obligations (but not the
liabilities) of the Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the
Mortgage Loans and/or the REO Property master serviced by the Master Servicer
and the proceeds thereof. Upon the receipt by the Master Servicer of the written
notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer under this Agreement,
whether with respect to the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans, REO Property
or
under any other related agreements (but only to the extent that such other
agreements relate to the Mortgage Loans or related REO Property) shall, subject
to Section 7.03, automatically and without further action pass to and be
vested in the Trustee(as successor master servicer and servicer) pursuant to
this Section 7.01(b); and, without limitation, the Trustee (as successor
master servicer and servicer) is hereby authorized and empowered to execute
and
deliver, on behalf of the Master Servicer as attorney-in-fact or otherwise,
any
and all documents and other instruments and to do or accomplish all other acts
or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of
termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment
of
the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The Master Servicer
agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master
Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, the
transfer to the Trustee of (i) the property and amounts which are then or should
be part of the Trust Fund or which thereafter become part of the Trust Fund;
and
(ii) originals or copies of all documents of the Master Servicer reasonably
requested by the Trustee to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s duties
thereunder. In addition to any other amounts which are then, or, notwithstanding
the termination of its activities under this Agreement, may become payable
to
the Master Servicer under this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be entitled
to receive, out of any amount received on account of a Mortgage Loan or related
REO Property, that portion of such payments which it would have received as
reimbursement under this Agreement if notice of termination had not been given.
The termination of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer shall
not
affect any obligations incurred by the Master Servicer prior to such
termination.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if a Master Servicer Event of Termination described in clause
(v)
of this Section 7.01(b) shall occur, the Trustee shall, by notice in
writing to the Master Servicer, which may be delivered by telecopy, immediately
terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer thereafter
arising under this Agreement, but without prejudice to any rights it may have
as
a Certificateholder or to reimbursement of Advances and other advances of its
own funds, and the Trustee shall (as successor master servicer) act as provided
in Section 7.03 to carry out the duties of the Master Servicer, including
the obligation to make any Advance the nonpayment of which was a Master Servicer
Event of Termination described in clause (vi) of this Section 7.01(b). Any
such action taken by the Trustee or the Trust Administrator must be prior to
the
distribution on the relevant Distribution Date.
| SECTION 7.02 |
Master
Servicer or Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor
Servicer.
|
(a) Within
90
days of the time the Servicer (and the Trustee, if notice is sent by the
Holders) receives a notice of termination pursuant to Section 7.01 or 6.04,
the
Master Servicer or (if the Master Servicer is the Servicer) the Trustee (or
such
other successor Servicer as is approved in accordance with this Agreement)
shall
be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as servicer
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 by the terms and provisions hereof arising on
and
after its succession. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto agree
that the Master Servicer or the Trustee, in its capacity as successor Servicer,
immediately will assume all of the obligations of the Servicer to make advances.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, in its
capacity as successor Servicer, shall not be responsible for the lack of
information and/or documents that it cannot obtain through reasonable efforts.
As compensation therefor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee (or such other
successor Servicer) shall be entitled to such compensation as the Servicer
would
have been entitled to hereunder if no such notice of termination had been given.
Notwithstanding the above, (i) if the Master Servicer or the Trustee is
unwilling to act as successor Servicer or (ii) if the Master Servicer or the
Trustee is legally unable so to act, the Master Servicer or Trustee shall
appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any
established housing and home finance institution, bank or other mortgage loan
or
home equity loan servicer having a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 as
the
successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of
the
responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder; provided,
that the appointment of any such successor Servicer shall be approved by the
NIMS Insurer (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), as evidenced
by
the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer, and will not result in the
qualification, reduction or withdrawal of the ratings assigned to the
Certificates by the Rating Agencies as evidenced by a letter to such effect
from
the Rating Agencies. Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer
hereunder, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall act in such capacity as
hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the
successor shall be entitled to receive compensation out of payments on Mortgage
Loans in an amount equal to the compensation which the Servicer would otherwise
have received pursuant to Section 3.18 (or such other compensation as the Master
Servicer or the Trustee and such successor shall agree, not to exceed the
Servicing Fee). The appointment of a successor Servicer shall not affect any
liability of the predecessor Servicer which may have arisen under this Agreement
prior to its termination as Servicer to pay any deductible under an insurance
policy pursuant to Section 3.14 or to reimburse the Master Servicer or Trustee
pursuant to Section 3.06), nor shall any successor Servicer be liable for any
acts or omissions of the predecessor Servicer or for any breach by such Servicer
of any of its representations or warranties contained herein or in any related
document or agreement. The Master Servicer or the Trustee and such successor
shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary
to
effectuate any such succession. All Servicing Transfer Costs shall be paid
by
the predecessor Servicer upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such
costs, and if such predecessor Servicer defaults in its obligation to pay such
costs, such costs shall be paid by the successor Servicer, the Master Servicer
or the Trustee (in which case the successor Servicer, the Master Servicer or
the
Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor from the
assets of the Trust).
(b) Any
successor to the Servicer, including the Master Servicer or the Trustee, shall
during the term of its service as servicer continue to service and administer
the Mortgage Loans for the benefit of Certificateholders, and maintain in force
a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and omissions in the
performance of its obligations as Servicer hereunder and a fidelity bond in
respect of its officers, employees and agents to the same extent as the Servicer
is so required pursuant to Section 3.14.
(c) In
connection with the resignation, removal or expiration of the term of the
Servicer hereunder, or in connection with the resignation or removal of any
successor to the Servicer (or any other successor to the Servicer appointed
hereunder) acting as successor Servicer hereunder, either (i) the successor
Servicer, (or any other successor to the Servicer appointed hereunder) acting
as
successor Servicer hereunder, shall represent and warrant that it is a member
of
MERS in good standing and shall agree to comply in all material respects with
the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the servicing of the
Mortgage Loans that are registered with MERS, in which case the predecessor
Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Servicer in causing MERS to revise
its records to reflect the transfer of servicing to the successor Servicer
as
necessary under MERS’ rules and regulations or (ii) the predecessor Servicer
shall cooperate with the successor Servicer in causing MERS to execute and
deliver an assignment of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage
from MERS to the Master Servicer or the Trustee and to execute and deliver
such
other notices, documents and other instruments as may be necessary or desirable
to effect a transfer of such Mortgage Loan or servicing of such Mortgage Loan
on
the MERS® System to the successor Servicer. The predecessor Servicer shall file
or cause to be filed any such assignment in the appropriate recording office.
The predecessor Servicer shall bear any and all fees of MERS, costs of preparing
any assignments of Mortgage, and fees and costs of filing any assignments of
Mortgage that may be required under this paragraph.
| SECTION 7.03 |
Trustee
to Act; Appointment of Successor Master
Servicer.
|
(a) Upon
the
receipt by the Master Servicer of a notice of termination pursuant to
Section 7.01(b) or an Opinion of Counsel rendered by Independent counsel
pursuant to Section 6.05(b) to the effect that the Master Servicer is
legally unable to act or to delegate its duties to a Person which is legally
able to act, the Trustee shall automatically become the successor in all
respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity under this Agreement and the
transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall thereafter be subject
to
all the responsibilities, duties, liabilities and limitations on liabilities
relating thereto placed on the Master Servicer by the terms and provisions
hereof; provided, however, that the Trustee (i) shall have no obligation
whatsoever with respect to any liability (other than Advances deemed recoverable
and not previously made) incurred by the Master Servicer at or prior to the
time
of termination and (ii) shall not be obligated to perform any obligation of
the
Master Servicer under Section 3.20 or 3.21 with respect to any period of time
during which the Trustee was not the Master Servicer. As compensation therefor,
but subject to Section 6.05, the Trustee shall be entitled to compensation
which the Master Servicer would have been entitled to retain if the Master
Servicer had continued to act hereunder, except for those amounts due the Master
Servicer as reimbursement permitted under this Agreement for advances previously
made or expenses previously incurred. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee
may, if it shall be unwilling so to act, or shall, if it is legally unable
so to
act, appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any
established housing and home finance institution which is a Xxxxxx Xxx- or
Xxxxxxx Mac-approved servicer, and with respect to a successor to the Master
Servicer only, having a net worth of not less than $10,000,000, as the successor
to the Master Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the
responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder;
provided, that the Depositor shall obtain consent and a letter or other evidence
each Rating Agency that the ratings, if any, on each of the Certificates will
not be lowered as a result of the selection of the successor to the Master
Servicer. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer hereunder,
the Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection
with such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make such arrangements
for
the compensation of such successor out of payments on the Mortgage Loans as
it
and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that the provisions of
Section 6.05 shall apply, the compensation shall not be in excess of that
which the Master Servicer would have been entitled to if the Master Servicer
had
continued to act hereunder, and that such successor shall undertake and assume
the obligations of the Trustee to pay compensation to any third Person acting
as
an agent or independent contractor in the performance of master servicing
responsibilities hereunder. The Trustee and such successor shall take such
action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate
any
such succession.
If
the
Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator are the same entity, then at any
time the Master Servicer resigns or is removed as Master Servicer, the Trust
Administrator shall also be removed hereunder. All reasonable Master Servicing
Transfer Costs shall be paid by the predecessor Master Servicer (or, if the
Trustee is the predecessor master servicer, the Trust Fund) upon presentation
of
reasonable documentation of such costs, and if such predecessor Master Servicer
defaults in its obligation to pay such costs, such costs shall be paid by the
successor Master Servicer or the Trustee (in which case the successor Master
Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement
therefor from the assets of the Trust Fund).
If
the
Trustee shall succeed to any duties of the Master Servicer respecting the
Mortgage Loans as provided herein, it shall do so in a separate capacity and
not
in its capacity as Trustee and, accordingly, the provisions of Article VIII
shall be inapplicable to the Trustee in its duties as the successor to the
Master Servicer in the master servicing of the Mortgage Loans (although such
provisions shall continue to apply to the Trustee in its capacity as Trustee);
the provisions of Article VI, however, shall apply to it in its capacity as
successor Master Servicer.
| SECTION 7.04 |
Waiver
of Defaults.
|
The
Majority Certificateholders may, on behalf of all Certificateholders, waive
any
events permitting removal of the Servicer as servicer pursuant to this Article
VII, provided, however, that the Majority Certificateholders 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 or Master Servicer Event of Termination
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.
Notice of any such waiver shall be given by the Trust Administrator or the
Trustee as applicable, to the Rating Agencies.
| SECTION 7.05 |
Notification
to Certificateholders.
|
(a) Upon
any
termination or appointment of a successor to the Servicer or the Master Servicer
pursuant to this Article VII or Section 6.04, the Trust Administrator, or in
the
event of the termination of the Master Servicer, the Trustee (or such other
trust administrator) shall give prompt written notice thereof to the
Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate
Register and each Rating Agency.
(b) No
later
than 60 days after the occurrence of any event which constitutes or which,
with
notice or a lapse of time or both, would constitute a Servicer Event of
Termination or a Master Servicer Event of Termination for five Business Days
after a Responsible Officer of the Trust Administrator (in the case of a
Servicer Event of Termination) or the Trustee (in the case of a Master Servicer
Event of Termination) becomes aware of the occurrence of such an event, the
Trust Administrator or Trustee, as applicable, shall transmit by mail to the
Credit Risk Manager and all Certificateholders notice of such occurrence unless
such default, Servicer Event of Termination or Master Servicer Event of
Termination shall have been waived or cured.
| SECTION 7.06 |
Survivability
of Servicer and Master Servicer
Liabilities.
|
Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, upon termination of the Servicer or the Master
Servicer hereunder, any liabilities of the Servicer or the Master Servicer,
as
applicable, which accrued prior to such termination shall survive such
termination.
ARTICLE
VIII
THE
TRUSTEE
AND THE
TRUST ADMINISTRATOR
| SECTION 8.01 |
Duties
of Trustee and Trust Administrator.
|
The
Trustee and the Trust Administrator, prior to the occurrence of a Servicer
Event
of Termination or Master Servicer Event of Termination and after the curing
of
all Servicer Events of Termination or Master Servicer Events of Termination
which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties
as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. If a Servicer Event of
Termination or Master Servicer Event of Termination has occurred (which has
not
been cured) of which a Responsible Officer has knowledge, each of the Trustee
and the Trust Administrator shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested
in it by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their
exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances
in
the conduct of his own affairs.
Each
of
the Trustee and the Trust Administrator, upon receipt of all resolutions,
certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other
instruments furnished to it 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 neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator will be responsible for
the
accuracy or content of any such resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions,
reports, documents or other instruments. If any such instrument is found not
to
conform to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner the Trustee
or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, shall take such action as it deems
appropriate to have the instrument corrected, and if the instrument is not
corrected to the Trustee’s or the Trust Administrator’s satisfaction, the
Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, will provide notice thereof
to the Certificateholders.
No
provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee or the
Trust Administrator from liability for its own negligent action, its own
negligent failure to act or its own misconduct; provided, however,
that:
(i) prior
to
the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Termination or Master Servicer Event
of
Termination, and after the curing of all such Servicer Events of Termination
or
Master Servicer Events of Termination which may have occurred, the duties and
obligations of the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall be determined
solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee and the Trust
Administrator shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties
and
obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied
covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee
or the Trust Administrator and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of
the
Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, the Trustee or the Trust
Administrator, as applicable, may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the
statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any
certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee or the Trust Administrator,
as
the case may be, and conforming to the requirements of this
Agreement;
(ii) neither
the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall be personally liable for an error
of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the
Trust Administrator, as applicable, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee
or the Trust Administrator, as the case may be, was negligent in ascertaining
the pertinent facts;
(iii) neither
the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall 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 Majority Certificateholders relating to
the
time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available
to
the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, or exercising or omitting
to exercise any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Agreement;
and
(iv) the
Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any failure by the Servicer
to
comply with the obligations of the Servicer referred to in clauses (i) and
(ii)
of Section 7.01(a) or of the existence of any Servicer Event of Termination
unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office
obtains actual knowledge of such failure or the Trustee receives written notice
of such failure from the Depositor, the Servicer or the Majority
Certificateholders.
Neither
the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall be required to expend or risk
its
own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any
of
its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if
there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or
adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured
to
it, and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event
require the Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance
of, any of the obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, except
during such time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to, and be
vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Master Servicer
in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
| SECTION 8.02 |
Certain
Matters Affecting the Trustee and the Trust
Administrator.
|
(a) Except
as
otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
(i) either
the Trustee or the Trust Administrator may request and rely upon, 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 reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have

consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by
Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the
Trustee or the Trust Administrator may prescribe;

the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall be under any obligation to
exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement, or to
institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto,
at

Insurer, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless such
Certificateholders or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, shall have offered to
the
Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, reasonable security or
indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred
therein or thereby; the right of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator to
perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Agreement shall not be
construed as a duty, and neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall
be answerable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct in the
performance of any such act;
(iv) neither

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 a Servicer Event of Termination
or
Master Servicer Event of Termination and after the curing of all Servicer Events
of Termination or Master Servicer Events of Termination which may have occurred,
neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall 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 documents, unless requested in writing to
do so
by the Majority Certificateholder or the NIMS Insurer; provided, however, that
if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee or the Trust
Administrator, as applicable, of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely
to be
incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the
Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, not reasonably assured to
the
Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, by the security afforded
to
it by the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee or the Trust Administrator,
as
applicable, may require reasonable indemnity against such cost, expense or
liability as a condition to such proceeding. The reasonable expense of every
such examination shall be paid by the Servicer or the NIMS Insurer (if requested
by the NIMS Insurer) or, if paid by the Trustee or the Trust Administrator,
as
applicable, shall be reimbursed by the Servicer or the NIMS Insurer ( if
requested by the NIMS Insurer) upon demand and, if not reimbursed by the
Servicer or the NIMS Insurer (if requested by the NIMS Insurer), shall be
reimbursed by the Trust. Nothing in this clause (v) shall derogate from the
obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure
of information regarding the Mortgagors;
(vi) the
Trustee or the Trust Administrator shall not be accountable, shall have no
liability and make no representation as to any acts or omissions hereunder
of
the Servicer until such time as the Trustee may be required to act as Servicer
pursuant to Section 7.02 and thereupon only for the acts or omissions of the
Trustee as successor Servicer;
(vii) the
Trustee or the Trust Administrator may execute any of the trusts or powers
hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through
agents or attorneys, custodians or nominees;
(viii) the
right
of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator to perform any discretionary act
enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty, and the Trustee
shall not be answerable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct
in
the performance of such act;
(ix) neither
the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall be personally liable for any
loss
resulting from the investment of funds held in the Collection Account or the
REO
Account made at the direction of the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12;
and
(x) the
Trustee or the Trust Administrator or its Affiliates are permitted to receive
compensation that could be deemed to be in the Trustee’s or the Trust
Administrator’s economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser,
administrator, shareholder, servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with
respect to certain of the Permitted Investments, (ii) using Affiliates to effect
transactions in certain Permitted Investments and (iii) effecting transactions
in certain Permitted Investments. Such compensation shall not be considered
an
amount that is reimbursable or payable pursuant to Section 3.11.
To
help
fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, the Trustee
or
the Trust Administrator will obtain, verify, and record information that
identifies individuals or entities that establish a relationship or open an
account with the Trustee or the Trust Administrator. The Trustee or the Trust
Administrator will ask for the name, address, tax identification number and
other information that will allow the Trustee or the Trust Administrator to
identify the individual or entity who is establishing the relationship or
opening the account. The Trustee or the Trust Administrator may also ask for
formation documents such as articles of incorporation, an offering memorandum,
or other identifying documents to be provided.
| SECTION 8.03 |
Trustee
and Trust Administrator Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage
Loans.
|
The
recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than, with respect
to
the Trust Administrator, the authentication of the Trust Administrator on the
Certificates) shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor, and neither
the
Trustee nor the Trust Administrator assumes responsibility for the correctness
of the same. Neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator makes any
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the
Certificates (other than, with respect to the Trust Administrator, the signature
and authentication of the Trust Administrator on the Certificates) or of any
Mortgage Loan or related document or MERS or the MERS® System other than, with
respect to the Trust Administrator, the Trust Administrator’s execution and
authentication of the Certificates. Neither the Trustee nor the Trust
Administrator shall be accountable for the use or application by the Servicer,
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 Collection Account
by
the Servicer. The Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall at no time have
any
responsibility or liability for or with respect to the legality, validity and
enforceability of any Mortgage or any Mortgage Loan, or the perfection and
priority of any Mortgage or the maintenance of any such perfection and priority,
or for or with respect to the sufficiency of the Trust or its ability to
generate the payments to be distributed to Certificateholders under this
Agreement, including, without limitation: the existence, condition and ownership
of any Mortgaged Property; the existence and enforceability of any hazard
insurance thereon (other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the
Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02); the validity of the assignment of any
Mortgage Loan to the Trustee or of any intervening assignment; the completeness
of any Mortgage Loan; the performance or enforcement of any Mortgage Loan (other
than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant to Section
7.02); the compliance by the Depositor, the Originator, the Seller or the
Servicer with any warranty or representation made under this Agreement or in
any
related document or the accuracy of any such warranty or representation prior
to
the Trustee’s receipt of notice or other discovery of any non-compliance
therewith or any breach thereof; any investment of monies by or at the direction
of the Servicer or any loss resulting therefrom, it being understood that the
Trust Administrator shall remain responsible for any Trust property that it
may
hold in its individual capacity; the acts or omissions of any of the Servicer
(other than if the Trust Administrator shall assume the duties of the Servicer
pursuant to Section 7.02), any Sub-Servicer or any Mortgagor; any action of
the
Servicer (other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Servicer
pursuant to Section 7.02), or any Sub-Servicer taken in the name of the Trust
Administrator; the failure of a Servicer or any Sub-Servicer to act or perform
any duties required of it as agent of the Trust Administrator hereunder; or
any
action by the Trust Administrator taken at the instruction of the Servicer
(other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant
to
Section 7.02); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the
Trustee of its obligation to perform its duties under this Agreement, including,
without limitation, the Trustee’s duty to review the Mortgage Files pursuant to
Section 2.01. Neither the Trust Administrator nor the Trustee shall have
responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement in any public
office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any
security interest or lien granted to it hereunder (unless the Trustee shall
have
become the successor Servicer).
| SECTION 8.04 |
Trustee
and Trust Administrator May Own
Certificates.
|
The
Trustee and the Trust Administrator in its individual or any other capacity
may
become the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights as it would
have if it were not Trustee or Trust Administrator may transact any banking
and
trust business with the Originator, the Servicer, the Depositor or their
Affiliates.
| SECTION 8.05 |
Trust
Administrator and Trustee Compensation and
Expenses.
|
(a) The
Trust
Administrator will be paid by the Master Servicer pursuant to a side letter
between each other.
(b) The
Trustee, the Trust Administrator or any director, officer, employee or agent
of
any of them, shall be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless against
any loss, liability or expense (not including expenses and disbursements
incurred or made by the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, including the
compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel,
in
the ordinary course of the Trustee’s or the Trust Administrator’s performance in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement) incurred by the Trustee or
by
the Trust Administrator arising out of or in connection with the acceptance
or
administration of the obligations and duties of the Trustee or the Trust
Administrator under this Agreement, other than any loss, liability or expense
(i) resulting from a breach of the Servicer’s or the Master Servicer’s
obligations and duties under this Agreement for which the Trustee or the Trust
Administrator, as applicable, is indemnified under Section 8.05(b) or (ii)
any
loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith
or negligence of the Trustee or of the Trust Administrator, as applicable,
in
the performance of its duties hereunder or by reason of the Trustee’s or the
Trust Administrator’s, as applicable, reckless disregard of obligations and
duties hereunder or as a result of a breach of the Trustee’s or the Trust
Administrator’s, as applicable, obligations under Article X hereof. Any amounts
payable to the Trustee, the Trust Administrator or any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, in respect of
the
indemnification provided by this Section 8.05, or pursuant to any other right
of
reimbursement from the Trust Fund that the Trustee, the Trust Administrator
or
any director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee or the Trust
Administrator, may have hereunder in its capacity as such, may be withdrawn
by
the Trust Administrator from the Distribution Account at any time. The foregoing
indemnity shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Trust
Administrator.
| SECTION 8.06 |
Eligibility
Requirements for Trustee and Trust
Administrator.
|
Each
of
the Trustee and the Trust Administrator hereunder shall at all times be an
entity duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States
of America or any state thereof, authorized under such laws to exercise
corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least
$50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authority. If such entity 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 8.06, the combined capital
and
surplus of such entity shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus
as
set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. The principal
offices of each of the Trustee and the Trust Administrator (other than the
initial Trustee and initial Trust Administrator) shall be in a state with
respect to which an Opinion of Counsel has been delivered to such the NIMS
Insurer and Trustee or Trust Administrator, as applicable, at the time such
Trustee or Trust Administrator, as applicable, is appointed Trustee or Trust
Administrator, as applicable, to the effect that the Trust will not be a taxable
entity under the laws of such state. In case at any time the Trustee or the
Trust Administrator shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions
of this Section 8.06, the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable,
shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section
8.07.
| SECTION 8.07 |
Resignation
or Removal of Trustee or Trust
Administrator.
|
The
Trustee or the Trust Administrator may at any time resign and be discharged
from
the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the NIMS Insurer,
the Depositor, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, each Rating Agency and, if
the
Trustee is resigning, to the Trust Administrator, or, if the Trust Administrator
is resigning, to the Trustee. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the
Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trust Administrator
acceptable to the NIMS Insurer (which may be the same Person in the event both
the Trustee and the Trust Administrator resign or are removed), by written
instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to
the
resigning Trustee or Trust Administrator, as applicable, and one copy to the
successor Trustee or Trust Administrator. If no successor Trustee or Trust
Administrator, as applicable, shall have been so appointed and having accepted
appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation,
the
resigning Trustee or Trust Administrator may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trust Administrator,
as applicable.
If
the
Trust Administrator and the Master Servicer are the same entity, then at any
time the Trust Administrator resigns or is removed as Trust Administrator,
the
Master Servicer shall also be removed hereunder.
If
at any
time the Trustee or the Trust Administrator shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after
written request therefor by the Depositor or the NIMS Insurer (or in the case
of
the Trust Administrator, the Trustee), or if at any time the Trustee or the
Trust Administrator shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged
bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator
or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge
or control of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator or of its property or
affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then
the
Depositor, the Servicer, the NIMS Insurer or the Master Servicer may remove
the
Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable. If the Depositor, the
Servicer, the NIMS Insurer or the Master Servicer removes the Trustee or the
Trust Administrator under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence,
the Depositor (with the consent of the NIMS Insurer) shall promptly appoint
a
successor Trustee or Trust Administrator, as applicable, by written instrument,
in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee
or
Trust Administrator so removed and one copy to the successor Trustee or Trust
Administrator.
The
Majority Certificateholders or the NIMS Insurer may at any time remove the
Trustee or Trust Administrator by written instrument or instruments delivered
to
the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Trust Administrator and
the Trustee; the Depositor shall thereupon use its best efforts to appoint
a
successor trustee in accordance with this Section.
Any
resignation or removal of the Trustee or Trust Administrator and appointment
of
a successor Trustee or Trust Administrator pursuant to any of the provisions
of
this Section 8.07 shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment
by
the successor trustee as provided in Section 8.08.
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the Master Servicer and the Trust
Administrator shall at all times be the same Person.
| SECTION 8.08 |
Successor
Trustee or Trust Administrator.
|
Any
successor Trustee or Trust Administrator appointed as provided in Section 8.07
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor,
the
Servicer, the Master Servicer and to its predecessor Trustee or Trust
Administrator an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon
the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee or Trust Administrator
shall become effective, and such successor Trustee or Trust Administrator,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with
all
the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with
like effect as if originally named as Trustee or Trust Administrator. The
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Servicer and the predecessor Trustee or
Trust Administrator shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such
other
things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and
confirming in the successor Trustee Trust Administrator all such rights, powers,
duties and obligations.
No
successor Trustee or Trust Administrator shall accept appointment as provided
in
this Section 8.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee
or Trust Administrator shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06
and the appointment of such successor Trustee or Trust Administrator shall
not
result in a downgrading of the Regular Certificates by any Rating Agency, as
evidenced by a letter from each Rating Agency.
Upon
acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee or Trust Administrator as
provided in this Section 8.08, the successor Trustee or Trust Administrator
shall mail notice of the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trust
Administrator hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as
shown in the Certificate Register and to each Rating Agency.
| SECTION 8.09 |
Merger
or Consolidation of Trustee or Trust
Administrator.
|
Any
entity into which the Trustee or the Trust Administrator may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from
any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee or the Trust
Administrator shall be a party, or any entity succeeding to the business of
the
Trustee or Trust Administrator, shall be the successor of the Trustee or the
Trust Administrator hereunder, as applicable, provided such entity shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 and 8.08, 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 8.10 |
Appointment
of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
|
Notwithstanding
any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting
any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust or
any
Mortgaged Property may at the time be located, the Depositor and the Trustee
acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all
instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee to act as
co-Trustee or co-Trustees, jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or
separate Trustees, of all or any part of the Trust, and to vest in such Person
or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Certificateholders,
such
title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions
of
this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the
Servicer and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. Any such
co-trustee or separate trustee shall be subject to the written approval of
the
Servicer and the NIMS Insurer. If the Servicer and the NIMS Insurer shall not
have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a
request so to do, or in the case a Servicer Event of Termination shall have
occurred and be continuing, the 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 trustee under Section 8.06, and
no
notice to Certificateholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate
trustee shall be required under Section 8.08. The Servicer shall be responsible
for the fees of any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed
hereunder.
Every
separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be
appointed and act subject to the following provisions and
conditions:
(i) all
rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee
shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee
and
such separate trustee or co-Trustee jointly (it being understood that such
separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without
the
Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any
jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether
as
Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Master Servicer hereunder), the Trustee
shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event
such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title
to
the Trust or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised
and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-Trustee, but solely at
the
direction of the Trustee;
(ii) no
trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable by reason of any act or
omission of any other trustee hereunder; and
(iii) the
Servicer and the Trustee, acting jointly, may at any time accept the resignation
of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee except that following the
occurrence of a Servicer Event of Termination, the Trustee acting alone may
accept the resignation or remove any separate trustee or
co-trustee.
Any
notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have
been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-Trustees, as effectively
as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee
or
co-Trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article
VIII. Each separate trustee and co-Trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts
conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its
instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as
may
be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement,
specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct
of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every
such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy thereof given to
the
Depositor, the Servicer and the NIMS Insurer.
Any
separate trustee or co-Trustee may, at any time, constitute the Trustee, its
agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to the extent not
prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement
on
its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-Trustee shall die,
become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates,
properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the
Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or
successor Trustee.
| SECTION 8.11 |
Limitation
of Liability.
|
The
Certificates are executed by the Trust Administrator, not in its individual
capacity but solely as Trust Administrator of the Trust, in the exercise of
the
powers and authority conferred and vested in it by this Agreement. Each of the
undertakings and agreements made on the part of the Trust Administrator in
the
Certificates is made and intended not as a personal undertaking or agreement
by
the Trust Administrator but is made and intended for the purpose of binding
only
the Trust.
| SECTION 8.12 |
Trustee
May Enforce Claims Without Possession of
Certificates.
|
(a) All
rights of action and claims under this Agreement or the Certificates may be
prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the
Certificates or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto,
and
such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name
or in
its capacity as Trustee for the benefit of all Holders of such Certificates,
subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Any recovery of judgment shall,
after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursement and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the
ratable benefit of the Certificateholders in respect of which such judgment
has
been recovered.
(b) The
Trustee shall afford the Seller, the Depositor, the Servicer, the NIMS Insurer
and each Certificateholder upon reasonable prior notice during normal business
hours, access to all records maintained by the Trustee in respect of its duties
hereunder and access to officers of the Trustee responsible for performing
such
duties. Upon request, the Trustee shall furnish the Depositor, the Servicer,
the
NIMS Insurer and any requesting Certificateholder with its most recent financial
statements. The Trustee shall cooperate fully with the Seller, the Servicer,
the
Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and such Certificateholder and shall make available
to the Seller, the Servicer, the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and such
Certificateholder for review and copying such books, documents or records as
may
be requested with respect to the Trustee’s duties hereunder. The Seller, the
Depositor, the Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders shall
not
have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the
Trustee and are not obligated to supervise the performance of the Trustee under
this Agreement or otherwise.
| SECTION 8.13 |
Suits
for Enforcement.
|
In
case a
Servicer Event of Termination or other default by the Servicer or the Depositor
hereunder shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee, shall, at the direction
of
the Majority Certificateholders or the NIMS Insurer, or may, proceed to protect
and enforce its rights and the rights of the Certificateholders or the NIMS
Insurer under this Agreement by a suit, action or proceeding in equity or at
law
or otherwise, whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement
contained in this Agreement or in aid of the execution of any power granted
in
this Agreement or for the enforcement of any other legal, equitable or other
remedy, as the Trustee, being advised by counsel, and subject to the foregoing,
shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of the rights of the
Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders.
| SECTION 8.14 |
Waiver
of Bond Requirement.
|
The
Trustee shall be relieved of, and each Certificateholder hereby waives, any
requirement of any jurisdiction in which the Trust, or any part thereof, may
be
located that the Trustee post a bond or other surety with any court, agency
or
body whatsoever.
| SECTION 8.15 |
Waiver
of Inventory, Accounting and Appraisal
Requirement.
|
The
Trustee shall be relieved of, and each Certificateholder hereby waives, any
requirement of any jurisdiction in which the Trust, or any part thereof, may
be
located that the Trustee file any inventory, accounting or appraisal of the
Trust with any court, agency or body at any time or in any manner
whatsoever.

taxable year ending on the last day of the calendar year in which the
Certificates are issued. The regular interests and residual interest in each
REMIC shall be as designated in the Preliminary Statement.
(b) The
Closing Date is hereby designated as the “Startup Day” of each REMIC within the
meaning of section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.
(c) The
Trust
Administrator shall pay any and all expenses relating to any tax audit of any
REMIC (including, but not limited to, any professional fees or any
administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to any Trust REMIC that
involve the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities), including the
expense of obtaining any tax related Opinion of Counsel. The Trust Administrator
shall be entitled to reimbursement of expenses incurred pursuant to this Section
9.01(c) to the extent provided in Section 8.05.
(d) The
Trust
Administrator shall prepare, sign and file, all of the REMICs’ federal and state
tax and information returns (including Form 8811) as the direct representative
each REMIC created hereunder. The expenses of preparing and filing such returns
shall be borne by the Trust Administrator.
(e) The
Holder of the Class R Certificate at any time holding the largest Percentage
Interest thereof shall be the “tax matters person” as defined in the REMIC
Provisions (the related “Tax Matters Person”) with respect to REMIC 1, REMIC 2
and REMIC 3 and shall act as Tax Matters Person for each such REMIC. The Holder
of the Class R-X Certificate at any time holding the largest Percentage Interest
thereof shall be the Tax Matters Person with respect to REMIC 4, REMIC 5 and
REMIC 6, and shall act as Tax Matters Person for each such REMIC. The Trust
Administrator, as agent for the Tax Matters Person, shall perform on behalf
of
each REMIC all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the
responsibility of such REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions, or other
compliance guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or
local
taxing authority. Among its other duties, if required by the Code, the REMIC
Provisions, or other such guidance, the Trust Administrator, as agent for the
Tax Matters Person, shall provide (i) to the Treasury or other governmental
authority such information as is necessary for the application of any tax
relating to the transfer of a Residual Certificate to any disqualified person
or
organization upon reasonable additional compensation and (ii) to the
Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code
or
REMIC Provisions. The Trust Administrator, as agent for the Tax Matters Person,

relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority,
request an administrative adjustment as to any taxable year of any REMIC, enter
into settlement agreements with any government taxing agency, extend any statute
of limitations relating to any item of any REMIC and otherwise act on behalf
of
any REMIC in relation to any tax matter involving the Trust.
(f) The
Trust
Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Servicer and the Holders of Certificates
shall take any action or cause any REMIC to take any action necessary to create
or maintain the status of each REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions
and
shall assist each other as necessary to create or maintain such status. None
of
the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Servicer or the Holder of any Residual
Certificate shall take any action, cause any REMIC created hereunder to take
any
action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action that, under
the
REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger
the status of such REMIC as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax
upon such REMIC (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions
as defined in Code Section 860F(a)(2) and the tax on prohibited contributions
set forth on Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such event, an “Adverse REMIC
Event”) unless the Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Servicer have
received an Opinion of Counsel, (at the expense of the party seeking to take
such action) to the effect that the contemplated action will not endanger such
status or result in the imposition of such a tax. In addition, prior to taking
any action with respect to any REMIC created hereunder or the assets therein,
or
causing such REMIC to take any action, which is not expressly permitted under
the terms of this Agreement, any Holder of a Residual Certificate will consult
with the Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Servicer, or their respective
designees, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an
Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to any REMIC, and no such Person
shall
take any such action or cause any REMIC to take any such action as to which
the
Trustee, the Trust Administrator or the Master Servicer has advised it in
writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur.
(g) Each
Holder of a Residual Certificate shall pay when due any and all taxes imposed
on
each REMIC created hereunder by federal or state governmental authorities.
To
the extent that such Trust taxes are not paid by a Residual Certificateholder,
the Trust Administrator shall pay any remaining REMIC taxes out of current
or
future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holder of the Residual Certificate
in the REMICs or, if no such amounts are available, out of other amounts held
in
the Distribution Account, and shall reduce amounts otherwise payable to Holders
of regular interests in the related REMIC. Subject to the foregoing, in the
event that a REMIC incurs a state or local tax, including franchise taxes,
as a
result of a determination that such REMIC is domiciled in the State of
California for state tax purposes by virtue of the location of the Servicer,
the
Servicer agrees to pay on behalf of such REMIC when due, any and all state
and
local taxes imposed as a result of such a determination, in the event that
the
Holder of the related Residual Certificate fails to pay such taxes, if any,
when
imposed.
(h) The
Trust
Administrator, as agent for the Tax Matters Person, shall, for federal income
tax purposes, maintain books and records with respect to each REMIC created
hereunder on a calendar year and on an accrual basis.
(i) No
additional contributions of assets shall be made to any REMIC created hereunder,
except as expressly provided in this Agreement with respect to eligible
substitute mortgage loans.

of
the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Servicer or the Master Servicer shall

and shall complete the Form 8811.
| SECTION 9.02 |
Prohibited
Transactions and Activities.
|
None
of
the Depositor, the Servicer , the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator
or
the Trustee shall sell, dispose of, or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans,
except in a disposition pursuant to (i) the foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan,
(ii)
the bankruptcy of the Trust Fund, (iii) the termination of any REMIC created

to Article II of this Agreement, nor acquire any assets for any REMIC, nor
sell
or dispose of any investments in the Distribution Account for gain, nor accept
any contributions to either REMIC after the Closing Date, unless it has received
an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party causing such sale,
disposition, or substitution) that such disposition, acquisition, substitution,
or acceptance will not (a) affect adversely the status of any REMIC created
hereunder as a REMIC or of the interests therein other than the Residual
Certificates as the regular interests therein, (b) affect the distribution
of
interest or principal on the Certificates, (c) result in the encumbrance of
the
assets transferred or assigned to the Trust Fund (except pursuant to the
provisions of this Agreement) or (d) cause any REMIC created hereunder to be
subject to a tax on prohibited transactions or prohibited contributions pursuant
to the REMIC Provisions.
| SECTION 9.03 |
Indemnification
with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of REMIC
Status.
|
(a) In
the
event that any REMIC fails to qualify as a REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC,
or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a result of a prohibited transaction
or prohibited contribution under the REMIC Provisions due to the negligent
performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein,
the
Servicer shall indemnify the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee, the Master Servicer,
the
Trust Administrator and the Trust Fund against any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses (“Losses”) resulting from such negligence;
provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable for any such Losses
attributable to the action or inaction of the Master Servicer, the Trustee,
the
Trust Administrator, the Depositor or the Holder of such Residual Certificate,
as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from misinformation provided
by
the Holder of such Residual Certificate on which the Servicer has relied. The
foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights and remedies
of
the Holder of such Residual Certificate now or hereafter existing at law or
in
equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no event shall the Servicer
have any liability (1) for any action or omission that is taken in accordance
with and in compliance with the express terms of, or which is expressly
permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses other than arising
out of a negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations
set
forth herein, and (3) for any special or consequential damages to
Certificateholders (in addition to payment of principal and interest on the
Certificates).
(b) In
the
event that any REMIC fails to qualify as a REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC,
or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a result of a prohibited transaction
or prohibited contribution under the REMIC Provisions due to the negligent
performance by the Trust Administrator of its duties and obligations set forth
herein, the Trust Administrator shall indemnify the Trust Fund against any
and
all Losses resulting from such negligence; provided, however, that the Trust
Administrator shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action
or inaction of the Servicer, the Depositor or the Holder of such Residual
Certificate, as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from
misinformation provided by the Holder of such Residual Certificate on which
the
Trust Administrator has relied. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit
or
restrict the rights and remedies of the Holder of such Residual Certificate
now
or hereafter existing at law or in equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
however, in no event shall the Trust Administrator have any liability (1) for
any action or omission that is taken in accordance with and in compliance with
the express terms of, or which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this
Agreement, (2) for any Losses other than arising out of a negligent performance
by the Trust Administrator of its duties and obligations set forth herein,
and
(3) for any special or consequential damages to Certificateholders (in addition
to payment of principal and interest on the Certificates).

TERMINATION
| SECTION 10.01 |
Termination.
|
(a) The
respective obligations and responsibilities of the Servicer, the Depositor,
the
Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the Trustee created hereby (other
than the obligation of the Trust Administrator to make certain payments to
Certificateholders after the final Distribution Date and the obligation of
the
Servicer to send certain notices as hereinafter set forth) shall terminate
upon
notice to the Trust Administrator upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution
Date
on which the Certificate Principal Balances of the Regular Certificates have
been reduced to zero, (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last
Mortgage Loan in the Trust, (iii) the optional purchase by the Terminator of
the
Mortgage Loans as described below and (iv) the Distribution Date in February
2036. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the trust created hereby
continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor
of the descendants of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of the United
States to the Court of St. James’s, living on the date hereof.
The
Servicer (in such capacity, the “Terminator”), may, at its option, terminate
this Agreement on any date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance
of
the Mortgage Loans (after giving effect to scheduled payments of principal
due
during the related Due Period, to the extent received or advanced, and
unscheduled collections of principal received during the related Prepayment
Period) on such date is equal to or less than 10% of the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans on the Cut-off Date, by purchasing,
on
the next succeeding Distribution Date, all of the outstanding Mortgage Loans
and
REO Properties at a price equal to the greater of (i) the Stated Principal
Balance of the Mortgage Loans (after giving effect to scheduled payments of
principal due during the related Due Period, to the extent received or advanced,
and unscheduled collections of principal received during the related Prepayment
Period) and the appraised value of the REO Properties and (ii) fair market
value
of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties (as determined and as agreed upon
as of
the close of business on the third Business Day next preceding the date upon
which notice of any such termination is furnished to the related
Certificateholders pursuant to Section 10.01(c) by (x) the Terminator, (y)
the
Holders of a majority in Percentage Interest in the Class C Certificates and
(z)
if the Fixed Rate Certificates and the Floating Rate Certificates will not
receive all amounts owed to it as a result of the termination, the Trust
Administrator, provided that if this clause (z) applies to such determination,
such determination shall be based solely upon an appraisal obtained as provided
in the last sentence of this paragraph), plus accrued and unpaid interest
thereon at the weighted average of the Mortgage Rates through the end of the
Due
Period preceding the final Distribution Date plus unreimbursed Servicing
Advances, Advances, any unpaid Servicing Fees allocable to such Mortgage Loans
and REO Properties and any accrued and unpaid Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts
and
any Swap Termination payment payable to the Swap Provider (the “Termination
Price”); provided, however, such option may only be exercised if the Termination
Price is sufficient to result in the payment of all interest accrued on, as
well
as amounts necessary to retire the principal balance of, each class of notes
issued pursuant to the Indenture and any amounts owed to the NIMS Insurer (as
it
notifies the Servicer and the Trust Administrator in writing). In addition,
if
the Servicer fails exercise its option hereunder, the Master Servicer may,
at
its option and at the Termination Price, terminate this Agreement on any date
on
which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans (after giving
effect to scheduled payments of principal due during the related Due Period,
to
the extent received or advanced, and unscheduled collections of principal
received during the related Prepayment Period) on such date is equal to or
less
than 5% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans on
the
Cut-off Date. If the determination of the fair market value of the Mortgage
Loans and REO Properties shall be required to be made and agreed upon by the
Terminator, the Holders of a majority in Percentage Interest in the Class C
Certificates and the Trust Administrator as provided in (ii) above, such
determination shall be based on an appraisal of the value of the Mortgage Loans
and REO Properties conducted by an independent appraiser mutually agreed upon
by
the Terminator, the Holders of a majority in Percentage Interest in the Class
C
Certificates and the Trust Administrator in their reasonable discretion, and

such appraisal shall be obtained at no expense to the Trustee and (B) the Trust
Administrator may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on,
such appraisal.
By
acceptance of a Residual Certificate, the Holders of the Residual Certificates
agree, in connection with any termination hereunder, to assign and transfer
any
amounts in excess of par, and to the extent received in respect of such
termination, to pay any such amounts to the Holders of the Class C
Certificates.
In
connection with any such purchase pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the
Terminator shall deposit in the Distribution Account all amounts then on deposit
in the Collection Account, which deposit shall be deemed to have occurred
immediately preceding such purchase.
Any
such
purchase shall be accomplished by deposit into the Distribution Account on
the
Determination Date before such Distribution Date of the Termination
Price.
(b) Notice
of
any termination, specifying the Distribution Date (which shall be a date that
would otherwise be a Distribution Date) upon which the Certificateholders may
surrender their Certificates to the Trust Administrator for payment of the
final
distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the Trust
Administrator upon the Trust Administrator receiving notice of such date from
the Terminator, by letter to the Certificateholders mailed not earlier than
the
15th
day and
not later than the 25th
day of
the month next preceding the month of such final distribution specifying (1)
the
Distribution Date upon which final distribution of the Certificates will be
made
upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office or agency
of
the Trust Administrator therein designated, (2) the amount of any such final
distribution and (3) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such
Distribution Date is not applicable, distributions being made only upon
presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office or agency of the
Trust Administrator therein specified.
(c) Upon
presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Trust Administrator shall
cause to be distributed to the Holders of the Certificates on the Distribution
Date for such final distribution, in proportion to the Percentage Interests
of
their respective Class and to the extent that funds are available for such
purpose, an amount equal to the amount required to be distributed to such
Holders in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.01 for such Distribution
Date. By acceptance of the Residual Certificates, the Holders of the Residual
Certificates agree, in connection with any termination hereunder, to assign
and
transfer any amounts in excess of the par value of the Mortgage Loans, and
to
the extent received in respect of such termination, to pay any such amounts
to
the Holders of the Class C Certificates.
(d) In
the
event that all Certificateholders shall not surrender their Certificates for
final payment and cancellation on or before such final Distribution Date, the
Trust Administrator shall promptly following such date cause all funds in the
Distribution Account not distributed in final distribution to Certificateholders
to be withdrawn therefrom and credited to the remaining Certificateholders
by
depositing such funds in a separate Servicing Account for the benefit of such
Certificateholders, and the Servicer (if the Servicer has exercised its right
to
purchase the Mortgage Loans) or the Trust Administrator (in any other case)
shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders, to
surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution
with respect thereto. If within nine months after the second notice all the
Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Residual
Certificateholders shall be entitled to all unclaimed funds and other assets
which remain subject hereto, and the Trust Administrator upon transfer of such
funds shall be discharged of any responsibility for such funds, and the
Certificateholders shall look to the Residual Certificateholders for
payment.
| SECTION 10.02 |
Additional
Termination Requirements.
|
(a) In
the
event that the Terminator exercises its purchase option as provided in Section
10.01, each REMIC shall be terminated in accordance with the following
additional requirements, unless the Trust Administrator shall have been
furnished with an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the failure of the
Trust
to comply with the requirements of this Section will not (i) result in the
imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” of the Trust as defined in
Section 860F of the Code or (ii) cause any REMIC constituting part of the Trust
Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are
outstanding:
(i) Within
90
days prior to the final Distribution Date, the Terminator shall adopt and the
Trust Administrator shall sign a plan of complete liquidation of each REMIC
created hereunder meeting the requirements of a “Qualified Liquidation” under
Section 860F of the Code and any regulations thereunder; and
(ii) At
or
after the time of adoption of such a plan of complete liquidation and at or
prior to the final Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator shall sell all
of
the assets of the Trust Fund to the Terminator for cash pursuant to the terms
of
the plan of complete liquidation.
(b) By
their
acceptance of Certificates, the Holders thereof hereby agree to appoint the
Trust Administrator as their attorney in fact to: (i) adopt such a plan of
complete liquidation (and the Certificateholders hereby appoint the Trust
Administrator as their attorney in fact to sign such plan) as appropriate and
(ii) to take such other action in connection therewith as may be reasonably
required to carry out such plan of complete liquidation all in accordance with
the terms hereof.

to the Depositor, the Servicer the Master Servicer and the Trustee from each
Rating Agency that such action will not result in the reduction or withdrawal
of
the rating of any outstanding Class of Certificates with respect to which it
is

without the consent of the Holders of Certificates of such Class evidencing
at
least a 66% Percentage Interest in such Class, or (z) reduce the percentage
of
Voting Rights required by clause (y) above without the consent of the Holders
of
all Certificates of such Class then outstanding. Upon approval of an amendment,
a copy of such amendment shall be sent to the Rating Agencies.

any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Trustee and the Trust
Administrator shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it
shall have first received an Opinion of Counsel, delivered by (and at the
expense of) the Person seeking such Amendment and satisfactory to the NIMS
Insurer, to the effect that such amendment will not result in the imposition
of
a tax on any REMIC created hereunder constituting part of the Trust Fund
pursuant to the REMIC Provisions or cause any REMIC created hereunder
constituting part of the Trust to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that
any Certificates are outstanding and that the amendment is being made in
accordance with the terms hereof.
Notwithstanding
any of the other provisions of this Section 11.01, none of the Depositor, the
Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee shall
enter into any amendment to this Agreement that adversely affects in any respect
the rights and interests hereunder of the Swap Provider without the prior
written consent of the Swap Provider.
Promptly
after the execution of any such amendment the Trust Administrator shall furnish,
at the expense of the Person that requested the amendment if such Person is
the
Servicer (but in no event at the expense of the Trustee or the Trust
Administrator), otherwise at the expense of the Trust, a copy of such amendment
and the Opinion of Counsel referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph
to
the Servicer and each Rating Agency.
It
shall
not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 11.01
to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment; instead it shall
be
sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner
of
obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution
thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations
as
the Trust Administrator may prescribe.

or elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by the Servicer at the expense
of
the Trust, but only upon direction of the Certificateholders accompanied by

vote
or in any manner otherwise control the operation and management of the Trust,

the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth
or
contained in the terms of the Certificates be construed so as to constitute
the
Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members of an association;
nor shall any Certificateholder be under any liability to any third person
by
reason of any action taken by the parties to this Agreement pursuant to any
provision hereof.
No
Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any provision of this
Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon

have given to the Trustee a written notice of default and of the continuance
thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the Holders of Certificates
entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights shall have made written request
upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name
as
Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable
indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to
be
incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee for 15 days after its receipt
of
such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused
to
institute any such action, suit or proceeding. It is understood and intended,
and expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other
Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates
shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of any provision of this
Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the Holders of any
other
of such Certificates, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference
to any other such Holder, which priority or preference is not otherwise provided
for herein, or to enforce any right under this Agreement, except in the manner
herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all
Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of
this
Section 11.03 each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee shall be entitled
to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

parties’ obligations as are necessary to accommodate evolving interpretations of
the provisions of Regulation AB.

The

Interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.
The
Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in
denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and

interest in the Trust created by the Agreement.
The

This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made
to
the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits,
obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities
of the Trust Administrator.
Pursuant
to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day
of
each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, then the Business Day
immediately following such Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date”),
commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to
the
Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business
on
the applicable Record Date in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage

to Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on
such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.
Distributions
on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address
of the person entitled thereto as it appears on the Certificate Register or

Certificateholders of such final distribution.
The

in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Trust Administrator and the Certificate
Registrar duly executed by the holder hereof or such holder’s attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same
Class in authorized denominations and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage
Interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.
The
Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in
denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and
subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable
for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and
evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder
surrendering the same.
No

but the Trust Administrator may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The
Depositor, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the
Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Master Servicer,

collectively called the “Certificates”), and representing a beneficial ownership
interest in the Trust created by the Agreement.
The
Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will
look solely to the funds on deposit in the Distribution Account for payment
hereunder and that the Trust Administrator is not liable to the
Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the
Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any

This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made
to
the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits,
obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities
of the Trust Administrator.
Pursuant
to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day
of
each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, then the Business Day
immediately following such Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date”),
commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to
the
Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business
on
the applicable Record Date in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage

such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.
Distributions
on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address
of the person entitled thereto as it appears on the Certificate Register or

Administrator or the Trust Administrator’s agent specified in the notice to
Certificateholders of such final distribution.
The
Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment

Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer
hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of
such

thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders
of
any of the Certificates.
As

the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate Register
of

in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Trust Administrator and the Certificate
Registrar duly executed by the holder hereof or such holder’s attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same
Class in authorized denominations and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage
Interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.
The
Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in
denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and
subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable
for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and
evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder
surrendering the same.
No
service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange,
but the Trust Administrator may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The
Depositor, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the
Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Master Servicer,
the
Trust Administrator or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of
the

Balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than 10% of the sum of (i) the aggregate
Stated Principal Balance of the Initial Mortgage Loans and the Additional
Mortgage Loans as of the related Cut-off Date and (ii) the Original Pre-Funded
Amounts, the Servicer may purchase, in whole, from the Trust the Mortgage Loans

collectively called the “Certificates”), and representing a beneficial ownership
interest in the Trust created by the Agreement.
The

look solely to the funds on deposit in the Distribution Account for payment
hereunder and that the Trust Administrator is not liable to the
Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the
Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any
liability under the Agreement.
This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made
to
the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits,
obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities
of the Trust Administrator.
Pursuant
to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day
of
each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, then the Business Day
immediately following such Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date”),
commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to
the
Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business
on
the applicable Record Date in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage
Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed
to Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on
such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.
Distributions
on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address
of the person entitled thereto as it appears on the Certificate Register or
by
wire transfer or otherwise, as set forth in the Agreement. The final
distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon
presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Trust
Administrator or the Trust Administrator’s agent specified in the notice to
Certificateholders of such final distribution.
The
Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment
thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Trust
Administrator and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement
at
any time by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust

as specified in the Agreement. Any such consent by the Holder of this
Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future
Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer

such
consent is made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment
thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders
of
any of the Certificates.
As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate Register
of
the Certificate Registrar upon surrender of this Certificate for registration
of
transfer at the offices or agencies of the Trust Administrator as provided
in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Trust Administrator and the Certificate
Registrar duly executed by the holder hereof or such holder’s attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same
Class in authorized denominations and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage
Interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.
The
Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in
denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and
subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable
for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and
evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder
surrendering the same.
No
service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange,
but the Trust Administrator may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The
Depositor, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the
Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Master Servicer,
the
Trust Administrator or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of
the
Depositor, the Trustee, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust
Administrator or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the
contrary.
On

Balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than 10% of the sum of (i) the aggregate
Stated Principal Balance of the Initial Mortgage Loans and the Additional
Mortgage Loans as of the related Cut-off Date and (ii) the Original Pre-Funded
Amounts, the Servicer may purchase, in whole, from the Trust the Mortgage Loans

The

This
Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made
to
the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits,
obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities
of the Trust Administrator.
Pursuant
to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day

immediately following such Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date”),
commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to
the
Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business
on
the applicable Record Date in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage

such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.
Distributions
on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address

The

Interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.
The
Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in
denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and

evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder
surrendering the same.

but the Trust Administrator may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The
Depositor, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the

This

Pursuant
to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day

on

The

Interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee or

The

evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder
surrendering the same.
No

The
Depositor, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the

against the Company in accordance with its terms except as enforceability

Representations
and Warranties
Capitalized
terms used in this Schedule 1 but not defined in this Agreement shall have
the
meanings given to such terms in the Purchase Agreement.
| 1. |
The
Mortgage Loan is in compliance with all requirements set forth
in the
related Confirmation, and the characteristics of the related Mortgage
Loan
Package as set forth in the related Confirmation are true and correct;
provided, however, that in the event of any conflict between the
terms of
any Confirmation and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement
shall
control;
|
| 2. |
All
payments required to be made up to the close of business on the
Closing
Date for such Mortgage Loan under the terms of the Mortgage Note
have been
made; the Seller has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited
or
knowingly received any advance of funds from a party other than
the owner
of the related Mortgaged Property, directly or indirectly, for
the payment
of any amount required by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage; no Mortgage
Loan
is thirty (30) or more days delinquent as of the Closing Date and,
except
as set forth on the related Assignment and Conveyance, there has
been no
delinquency, exclusive of any period of grace, in any payment by
the
Mortgagor thereunder since the origination of the Mortgage
Loan;
|
| 3. |
To
the best of the Seller’s knowledge, there are no delinquent taxes, ground
rents, water charges, sewer rents, assessments, insurance premiums,
leasehold payments, including assessments payable in future installments
or other outstanding charges affecting the related Mortgaged
Property;
|
| 4. |
The
terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not been impaired,
waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written instruments,
recorded in the applicable public recording office if necessary
to
maintain the lien priority of the Mortgage, and which have been
delivered
to the Custodian; the substance of any such waiver, alteration
or
modification has been approved by the title insurer, to the extent
required by the related policy, and is reflected on the related
Mortgage
Loan Schedule. No instrument of waiver, alteration or modification
has
been executed, and no Mortgagor has been released, in whole or
in part,
except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the
title
insurer, to the extent required by the policy, and which assumption
agreement has been delivered to the Custodian and the terms of
which are
reflected in the related Mortgage Loan
Schedule;
|
| 5. |
The
Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any right of
rescission,
set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury,
nor will
the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note and the
Mortgage,
or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Mortgage
unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of
rescission,
set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury
and no
such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has
been
asserted with respect thereto. Each Prepayment Charge or penalty
with
respect to any Mortgage Loan is permissible, enforceable and collectible
under applicable federal, state and local
law;
|
| 6. |
All
buildings upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by a Qualified
Insurer
acceptable to prudent lenders in the secondary mortgage market
against
loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards
as are
customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located,
pursuant to
insurance policies providing coverage in an amount not less than
the
greatest of (i) 100% of the replacement cost of all improvements
to the
Mortgaged Property, (ii) either (A) the outstanding principal balance
of
the Mortgage Loan with respect to each first lien Mortgage Loan
or (B)
with respect to each second lien Mortgage Loan, the sum of the
outstanding
principal balance of the related first lien mortgage loan and the
outstanding principal balance of the second lien Mortgage Loan,
or (iii)
the amount necessary to avoid the operation of any co-insurance
provisions
with respect to the Mortgaged Property, and consistent with the
amount
that would have been required as of the date of origination in
accordance
with the Underwriting Guidelines. All such insurance policies contain
a
standard mortgagee clause naming the Seller, its successors and
assigns as
mortgagee and all premiums thereon have been paid. If the Mortgaged
Property is in an area identified on a Flood Hazard Map or Flood
Insurance
Rate Map issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having
special flood hazards (and such flood insurance has been made available)
a
flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current
guidelines
of the Federal Insurance Administration is in effect which policy
is
generally acceptable to prudent lenders in the secondary mortgage
market.
The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all
such
insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor's
failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to maintain
such
insurance at Mortgagor's cost and expense and to seek reimbursement
therefor from the Mortgagor;
|
| 7. |
Any
and all requirements of any federal, state or local law including,
without
limitation, usury, truth in lending, real estate settlement procedures,
predatory and abusive lending, consumer credit protection, equal
credit
opportunity, fair housing or disclosure laws applicable to the
origination
and servicing of mortgage loans of a type similar to the Mortgage
Loans
and applicable to any prepayment penalty associated with the Mortgage
Loans at origination have been complied
with;
|
| 8. |
The
Mortgage has not been satisfied, cancelled, subordinated or rescinded,
in
whole or in part, and the Mortgaged Property has not been released
from
the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any instrument
been
executed that would effect any such satisfaction, cancellation,
subordination, rescission or
release;
|
| 9. |
The
Mortgage (including any Negative Amortization which may arise thereunder)
is a valid, existing and enforceable (A) first lien and first priority
security interest with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated
by
the Seller to be a first lien (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan
Schedule), or (B) second lien and second priority security interest
with
respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Seller
to be a
second lien (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule), in either
case,
on the Mortgaged Property, including all improvements on the Mortgaged
Property subject only to (a) the lien of current real property
taxes and
assessments not yet due and payable, (b) covenants, conditions
and
restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the
public
record as of the date of recording being acceptable to mortgage
lending
institutions generally and specifically referred to in the lender's
title
insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Mortgage Loan
and
which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged
Property, (c) with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated
by the
Seller to be a second lien Mortgage Loan (as reflected on the Mortgage
Loan Schedule) a first lien on the Mortgaged Property; and (d)
other
matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do
not
materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended
to be
provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability
of
the related Mortgaged Property. Any security agreement, chattel
mortgage
or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with
the
Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, existing and enforceable
first or second lien and first or second priority security interest
(in
each case, as indicated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule) on the property
described therein and the Seller has full right to sell and assign
the
same to the Purchaser. The Mortgaged Property was not, as of the
date of
origination of the Mortgage Loan, subject to a mortgage, deed of
trust,
deed to secure debt or other security instrument creating a lien
subordinate to the lien of the
Mortgage;
|
| 10. |
The
Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are genuine and each is
the legal,
valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof, enforceable
in
accordance with its terms;
|
| 11. |
All
parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had legal capacity
to enter
into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage
Note and
the Mortgage, and the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have been
duly and
properly executed by such parties. The Mortgagor is a natural
person;
|
| 12. |
The
proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed to or for
the
account of the Mortgagor and there is no obligation for the Mortgagee
to
advance additional funds thereunder and any and all requirements
as to
completion of any on-site or off-site improvement and as to disbursements
of any escrow funds therefor have been complied with. All costs,
fees and
expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the
recording
of the Mortgage have been paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled
to any
refund of any amounts paid or due to the Mortgagee pursuant to
the
Mortgage Note or Mortgage;
|
| 13. |
The
Seller is the sole legal, beneficial and equitable owner of the
Mortgage
Note and the Mortgage and has full right to transfer and sell the
Mortgage
Loan to the Purchaser free and clear of any encumbrance, equity,
lien,
pledge, charge, claim or security
interest;
|
| 14. |
All
parties which have had any interest in the Mortgage Loan, whether
as
mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the
period in
which they held and disposed of such interest, were) in compliance
with
any and all applicable “doing business” and licensing requirements of the
laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged Property is
located;
|
| 15. |
The
Mortgage Loan is covered by an American Land Title Association
(“ALTA”)
lender’s title insurance policy (which, in the case of an Adjustable Rate
Mortgage Loan has an adjustable rate mortgage endorsement in the
form of
ALTA 6.0 or 6.1) acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxx and Xxxxxxx
Mac,
issued by a title insurer acceptable to prudent lenders in the
secondary
mortgage market and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction
where the
Mortgaged Property is located, insuring (subject to the exceptions
contained in (x)(a) and (b), and with respect to any second lien
Mortgage
Loan (c), above) the Seller, its successors and assigns as to the
first or
second priority lien (as indicated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule)
of the
Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan
(including,
if the Mortgage Loan provides for Negative Amortization, the maximum
amount of Negative Amortization in accordance with the Mortgage)
and, with
respect to any Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loan, against any loss
by reason
of the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting from
the
provisions of the Mortgage providing for adjustment in the Mortgage
Interest Rate and Monthly Payment and Negative Amortization provisions
of
the Mortgage Note. Additionally, such lender's title insurance
policy
affirmatively insures ingress and egress to and from the Mortgaged
Property, and against encroachments by or upon the Mortgaged Property
or
any interest therein. The Seller is the sole insured of such lender's
title insurance policy, and such lender’s title insurance policy is in
full force and effect and will be in full force and effect upon
the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
No claims
have been made under such lender's title insurance policy, and
no prior
holder of the related Mortgage, including the Seller, has done,
by act or
omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such lender's
title
insurance policy;
|
| 16. |
Other
than payment delinquencies of less than one calendar month, there
is no
default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under
the
Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and no event which, with the passage
of time
or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period,
would
constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration,
and the
Seller has not waived any default, breach, violation or event of
acceleration. With respect to each second lien Mortgage Loan (i)
the first
lien mortgage loan is in full force and effect, (ii) other than
payment
delinquencies of less than one calendar month, there is no default,
breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under such
first lien
mortgage or the related mortgage note, (iii) no event which, with
the
passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace
or cure
period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event
of
acceleration thereunder, (iv) either (A) the first lien mortgage
contains
a provision which allows or (B) applicable law requires, the mortgagee
under the second lien Mortgage Loan to receive notice of, and affords
such
mortgagee an opportunity to cure any default by payment in full
or
otherwise under the first lien mortgage, (v) the related first
lien does
not provide for or permit negative amortization under such first
lien
Mortgage Loan, and (vi) either no consent for the Mortgage Loan
is
required by the holder of the first lien or such consent has been
obtained
and is contained in the Mortgage
File;
|
| 17. |
As
of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan and to the best
of the
Seller’s knowledge as of the Closing Date, except as insured against by
the related title insurance policy, there are no mechanics' or
similar
liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or material
(and no
rights are outstanding that under law could give rise to such lien)
affecting the related Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens
prior
to, or equal or coordinate with, the lien of the related
Mortgage;
|
| 18. |
All
improvements which were considered in determining the Appraised
Value of
the related Mortgaged Property lay wholly within the boundaries
and
building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property, and no improvements
on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged
Property;
|
| 19. |
The
Mortgage Loan was originated by the Seller or by a savings and
loan
association, a savings bank, a commercial bank or similar banking
institution which is supervised and examined by a federal or state
authority, or by a mortgagee approved as such by the Secretary
of
HUD;
|
| 20. |
Principal
payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced no more than sixty (60)
days after
the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan were disbursed. The Mortgage
Loan bears
interest at the Mortgage Interest Rate. With respect to each Mortgage
Loan
which is not a Negative Amortization Loan, the Mortgage Note is
payable on
the first or fifteenth day of each month in Monthly Payments, which,
in
the case of a Fixed Rate Mortgage Loans, are sufficient to fully
amortize
the original principal balance over the original term thereof (other
than
with respect to a Mortgage Loan identified on the related Mortgage
Loan
Schedule as an interest-only Mortgage Loan during the interest-only
period
or a Mortgage Loan which is identified on the related Mortgage
Loan
Schedule as a Balloon Mortgage Loan) and to pay interest at the
related
Mortgage Interest Rate, and, in the case of an Adjustable Rate
Mortgage
Loan, are changed on each Adjustment Date, and in any case, are
sufficient
to fully amortize the original principal balance over the original
term
thereof (other than with respect to a Mortgage Loan identified
on the
related Mortgage Loan Schedule as an interest-only Mortgage Loan
during
the interest-only period or a Mortgage Loan which is identified
on the
related Mortgage Loan Schedule as a Balloon Mortgage Loan) and
to pay
interest at the related Mortgage Interest Rate. With respect to
each
Negative Amortization Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage Note
requires a
Monthly Payment which is sufficient during the period following
each
Payment Adjustment Date, to fully amortize the outstanding principal
balance as of the first day of such period (including any Negative
Amortization) over the then remaining term of such Mortgage Note
and to
pay interest at the related Mortgage Interest Rate; provided, that
the
Monthly Payment shall not increase to an amount that exceeds 107.5%
of the
amount of the Monthly Payment that was due immediately prior to
the
Payment Adjustment Date; provided, further, that the payment adjustment
cap shall not be applicable with respect to the adjustment made
to the
Monthly Payment that occurs in a year in which the Mortgage Loan
has been
outstanding for a multiple of five (5) years and in any such year
the
Monthly Payment shall be adjusted to fully amortize the Mortgage
Loan over
the remaining term. With respect to each Mortgage Loan identified
on the
Mortgage Loan Schedule as an interest-only Mortgage Loan, the
interest-only period shall not exceed ten (10) years (or such other
period
specified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule) and following the expiration
of
such interest-only period, the remaining Monthly Payments shall
be
sufficient to fully amortize the original principal balance over
the
remaining term of the Mortgage Loan and to pay interest at the
related
Mortgage Interest Rate. With respect to each Balloon Mortgage Loan,
the
Mortgage Note requires a monthly payment which is sufficient to
fully
amortize the original principal balance over the original term
thereof and
to pay interest at the related Mortgage Interest Rate and requires
a final
Monthly Payment substantially greater than the preceding monthly
payment
which is sufficient to repay the remained unpaid principal balance
of the
Balloon Mortgage Loan as the Due Date of such monthly payment.
The Index

Loan Schedule. No Mortgage Loan is a Convertible Mortgage Loan.
No Balloon
Mortgage Loan has an original stated maturity of less than seven
(7)

The
origination, servicing and collection practices used with respect
to each

industry. The Mortgage Loan has been serviced by the Seller and
any
predecessor servicer in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage
Note and
Accepted Servicing Practices. With respect to escrow deposits and
Escrow
Payments, if any, all such payments are in the possession of, or
under the
control of, the Seller and there exist no deficiencies in connection
therewith for which customary arrangements for repayment thereof
have not
been made. No escrow deposits or Escrow Payments or other charges

homestead or other exemption available to the Mortgagor which would
interfere with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee's
sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage. The Mortgagor has
not
notified the Seller and the Seller has no knowledge of any relief
requested or allowed to the Mortgagor under the Servicemembers’ Civil
Relief Act;
|
| 24. |

the Mortgage Loan was made in accordance with the relevant provisions
of
FIRREA;
|
| 27. |
In
the event the Mortgage constitutes 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 the Mortgage,
and no
fees or expenses are or will become payable by the Purchaser to
the
trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee's
sale after default by the
Mortgagor;
|
| 28. |
No
Mortgage Loan contains provisions pursuant to which Monthly Payments
are
(a) paid or partially paid with funds deposited in any separate
account

the
Underwriting Guidelines under which the Mortgage Loans were originated,

respect
to the Mortgage, the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor that can
reasonably be expected to cause the Mortgage Loan to become delinquent
or
adversely affect the value of the Mortgage Loan as compared to
other
mortgage loans in the Seller’s portfolio meeting the requirements of the

any
builder or developer, or any other party involved in the origination
of
the Mortgage Loan or in the application of any insurance in relation
to
such Mortgage Loan;
|
| 35. |
The
Assignment of Mortgage, if required, is in recordable form, except
for the
name of the assignee which is blank, and is acceptable for recording
under
the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is
located;
|
| 36. |
Any
principal advances made to the Mortgagor 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. The lien of the
Mortgage
securing the consolidated principal amount is expressly insured
as having
first or second (as indicated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule) lien
priority
by a title insurance policy, an endorsement to the policy insuring
the
mortgagee's consolidated interest or by other title evidence acceptable
to
prudent lenders in the secondary mortgage market. The consolidated
principal amount does not exceed the original principal amount
of the
Mortgage Loan plus any Negative
Amortization;

The
Seller shall, at its own expense, cause each Mortgage Loan to be

Purchaser
for all costs and expenses incurred by the Purchaser in connection
with
the purchase of any such Tax Service
Contract;
|
| 42. |

|
| 44. |
No
predatory, abusive, or deceptive lending practices, including but
not
limited to, the extension of credit to a Mortgagor without regard

to a mortgagor which has no apparent benefit to the Mortgagor,
were
employed in connection with the origination of the Mortgage
Loan;
|
| 45. |
The
debt-to-income ratio of the related Mortgagor was not greater than
60% at
the origination of the related Mortgage
Loan;

No
Mortgagor was required to purchase any credit insurance product
(e.g.,
life, mortgage, disability, accident, unemployment or health insurance
product) or debt cancellation agreement as a condition of obtaining
the
extension of credit. No Mortgagor obtained a prepaid single premium
credit
insurance policy (e.g., life, mortgage, disability, accident, unemployment

connection
with the origination of the Mortgage Loan. No proceeds from any
Mortgage
Loan were used to purchase single premium credit insurance policies
) or
debt cancellation agreements as part of the origination of, or
as a
condition to closing, such Mortgage Loan.
|
| 47. |
The
Mortgage Loans were not selected from the outstanding one- to four-family
mortgage loans in the Seller’s portfolio at the related Closing Date, as
to which the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement
could be made and as to which the stipulations in the Confirmation
could
be satisfied in a manner so as to affect adversely the interests

Purchaser. The related Mortgagor under the Mortgage Loan had a

Loan,
unless such Mortgage Loan was originated under an origination program
which does not require FICO scores to be obtained under the Seller’s

|
| 49. |
The
Mortgage Loan complies with all applicable consumer credit statutes
and
regulations, including, without limitation, the respective Uniform
Consumer Credit Code laws in effect in Alabama, Colorado, Idaho,
Indiana,
Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Utah, West Virginia
and

in all
other respects, complies with all of the material requirements
of any such
applicable laws;
|
| 50. |

accordance with its terms upon the Mortgagor’s full and voluntary
principal payment under applicable
law;
|
| 51. |
The
Mortgage Loan was not prepaid in full prior to the Closing Date
and the
Seller has not received notification from a Mortgagor that a prepayment
in
full shall be made after the Closing
Date;
|
| 52. |
No
Mortgage Loan is secured by cooperative housing, commercial property
or
mixed use property, unless such mixed use property is subject to
de
minimis commercial use, such commercial use was not taken into
account in
valuing the related Mortgaged Property and the related Mortgaged
Property
was not modified for such commercial
use;
|
| 53. |
Each
Mortgage Loan is eligible for sale in the secondary market or for
inclusion in a Securitization Transaction without unreasonable
credit
enhancement;
|
| 54. |
Except
as set forth on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule, none of the
Mortgage
Loans are subject to a Prepayment Charge. For any Mortgage Loan
originated
prior to October 1, 2002 that is subject to a Prepayment Charge,
such
Prepayment Charge does not extend beyond five (5) years after the
date of
origination. For any Mortgage Loan originated on or following October
1,
2002 that is subject to a Prepayment Charge, such Prepayment Charge
does
not extend beyond three (3) years after the date of origination.
With
respect to any Mortgage Loan that contains a provision permitting
imposition of a premium upon a prepayment prior to maturity: (i)
prior to
the Mortgage Loan's origination, the Mortgagor agreed to such premium
in
exchange for a monetary benefit, including but not limited to a
rate or
fee reduction, (ii) prior to the Mortgage Loan's origination, the
Mortgagor was offered the option of obtaining a Mortgage Loan that
did not
require payment of such a premium, (iii) the prepayment premium
is
disclosed to the Mortgagor in the loan documents pursuant to applicable
state and federal law, and (iv) notwithstanding any state or federal
law
to the contrary, the Seller shall not impose such Prepayment Charge
in any
instance when the mortgage loan is accelerated or paid off in connection
with the workout of a delinquent Mortgage Loan as the result of
the
Mortgagor's default in making the loan
payments;
|
| 55. |
The
Seller has complied with all applicable anti-money laundering laws
and
regulations, including without limitation the USA Patriot Act of
2001
(collectively, the “Anti-Money Laundering Laws”); the Seller has
established an anti-money laundering compliance program as required
by the
Anti-Money Laundering Laws, has conducted the requisite due diligence
in
connection with the origination of each Mortgage Loan for purposes
of the
Anti-Money Laundering Laws, including with respect to the legitimacy
of
the applicable Mortgagor and the origin of the assets used by the
said
Mortgagor to purchase the Mortgaged Property, and maintains, and
will
maintain, sufficient information to identify the applicable Mortgagor
for
purposes of the Anti-Money Laundering Laws. No Mortgage Loan is
subject to
nullification pursuant to Executive Order 13224 (the “Executive Order”) or
the regulations promulgated by the Office of Foreign Assets Control
of the
United States Department of the Treasury (the “OFAC Regulations”) or in
violation of the Executive Order or the OFAC Regulations, and no
Mortgagor
is subject to the provisions of such Executive Order or the OFAC
Regulations nor listed as a “blocked person” for purposes of the OFAC
Regulations;
|
| 56. |
No
Mortgagor was encouraged or required to select a Mortgage Loan
product
offered by the Mortgage Loan's originator which is a higher cost
product
designed for less creditworthy borrowers, unless at the time of
the
Mortgage Loan's origination, such Mortgagor did not qualify taking
into
account credit history and debt to income ratios for a lower cost
credit
product then offered by the Mortgage Loan's originator or any affiliate
of
the Mortgage Loan's originator. If, at the time of loan application,
the
Mortgagor may have qualified for a for a lower cost credit product
then
offered by any mortgage lending affiliate of the Mortgage Loan's
originator, the Mortgage Loan's originator referred the Mortgagor's
application to such affiliate for underwriting consideration. With
respect
to any Mortgage Loan, the Mortgagor was assigned the highest credit
grade
available with respect to a mortgage loan product offered by such
Mortgage
Loan’s originator, based on a comprehensive assessment of risk factors,
including the Mortgagor’s credit history. Additionally, the Mortgage
Loan’s originator offered the Mortgagor mortgage loan products offered
by
such Mortgage Loan’s originator, or any affiliate of such Mortgage Loan’s
originator, for which the Mortgagor
qualified;
|
| 57. |
The
methodology used in underwriting the extension of credit for each
Mortgage
Loan employs objective mathematical principles which relate the
Mortgagor's income, assets and liabilities to the proposed payment
and
such underwriting methodology does not rely on the extent of the
Mortgagor's equity in the collateral as the principal determining
factor
in approving such credit extension. Such underwriting methodology
confirmed that at the time of origination (application/approval)
the
Mortgagor had a reasonable ability to make timely payments on the
Mortgage
Loan;
|
| 58. |
With
respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Seller has fully and accurately
furnished complete information (i.e., favorable and unfavorable)
on the
related borrower credit files to Equifax, Experian and Trans Union
Credit
Information Company, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting
Act and
its implementing regulations, on a monthly basis and, for each
Mortgage
Loan, the Seller will furnish, in accordance with the Fair Credit
Reporting Act and its implementing regulations, accurate and complete
information on its borrower credit files to Equifax, Experian,
and Trans
Union Credit Information Company, on a monthly
basis;
|
| 59. |
All
points and fees related to each Mortgage Loan were disclosed in
writing to
the related Borrower in accordance with applicable state and federal
laws
and regulations. No related Borrower was charged “points and fees”
(whether or not financed) in an amount greater than (a) $1,000
or (b) 5%
of the principal amount of such loan, whichever is greater, such
5%
limitation is calculated in accordance with Xxxxxx Mae’s anti-predatory
lending requirements as set forth in the Xxxxxx Mae Guides. For
purposes
of this representation, “points and fees” (a) include origination,
underwriting, broker and finder’s fees and other charges that the lender
imposed as a condition of making the loan, whether they are paid
to the
lender or a third party, and (b) exclude bona fide discount points,
fees
paid for actual services rendered in connection with the origination
of
the mortgage (such as attorneys’ fees, notaries fees and fees paid for
property appraisals, credit reports, surveys, title examinations
and
extracts, flood and tax certifications, and home inspections);
the cost of
mortgage insurance or credit-risk price adjustments; the costs
of title,
hazard, and flood insurance policies; state and local transfer
taxes or
fees; escrow deposits for the future payment of taxes and insurance
premiums; and other miscellaneous fees and charges that, in total,
do not
exceed 0.25 percent of the loan amount. All points, fees and charges
(including finance charges) and whether or not financed, assessed,
collected or to be collected in connection with the origination
and
servicing of each Mortgage Loan were disclosed in writing to the
related
Mortgagor in accordance with applicable state and federal laws

The
undersigned, being first duly sworn, deposes and says as follows:
1. The
undersigned is an officer of, the proposed Transferee of an Ownership Interest
in a Residual Certificate (the “Certificate”)
issued
pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of April 1, 2006 (the
“Agreement”),
among
Financial Asset Securities Corp., as depositor (the “Depositor”),
Fremont Investment & Loan (the “Servicer”),
Xxxxx
Fargo Bank, N.A. as master servicer and trust administrator (the “Master
Servicer” and “Trust Administrator”) and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company,
as trustee (the “Trustee”).
Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein or in Exhibit 1 hereto,
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 for the benefit of the Depositor and the Trustee.
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 Ownership
Interest in the Certificate for its own account. 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
the 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 5.02(d) of the Agreement
and understands the legal consequences of the acquisition of an Ownership
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 5.02(d) 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 Ownership 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 Ownership
Interest or cause any Ownership 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 Trustee
a
certificate substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit L to the
Agreement (a “Transferor
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 has historically paid its debts as they have come due, intends to
pay
its debts as they come due in the future, and understands that the taxes payable
with respect to the Certificate may exceed the cash flow with respect thereto
in
some or all periods and intends to pay such taxes as they become due. The
Transferee does not have the intention to impede the assessment or collection
of
any tax legally required to be paid with respect to the
Certificate.
8. The
Transferee’s taxpayer identification number is ___________.
9. The
Transferee is a U.S. Person as defined in Code
Section 7701(a)(30).
10. The
Transferee is aware that the Certificate may be a “noneconomic residual
interest” within the meaning of proposed Treasury regulations promulgated
pursuant to the Code and that the transferor of a noneconomic residual interest
will remain liable for any taxes due with respect to the income on such residual
interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer was to impede the
assessment or collection of tax.
11. The
Transferee will not cause income from the Certificate to be attributable to
a
foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an
applicable income tax treaty, of the Transferee or any other U.S.
person.
12. Check
one
of the following:
The
present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the
Certificate, as applicable, does not exceed the sum of:
|
(i)
|
the
present value of any consideration given to the Transferee to acquire
such
Certificate;
|
|
|
(ii)
|
the
present value of the expected future distributions on such Certificate;
and
|
|
|
(iii)
|
the
present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding
such
Certificate as the related REMIC generates
losses.
|
For
purposes of this calculation, (i) the Transferee is assumed to pay tax at the
highest rate currently specified in Section 11(b) of the Code (but the tax
rate
in Section 55(b)(1)(B) of the Code may be used in lieu of the highest rate
specified in Section 11(b) of the Code if the Transferee has been subject to
the
alternative minimum tax under Section 55 of the Code in the preceding two years
and will compute its taxable income in the current taxable year using the
alternative minimum tax rate) and (ii) present values are computed using a
discount rate equal to the short-term Federal rate prescribed by Section 1274(d)
of the Code for the month of the transfer and the compounding period used by
the
Transferee.
The
transfer of the Certificate complies with U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections
1.860E-1(c)(5) and (6) and, accordingly,
|
(i)
|
the
Transferee is an “eligible corporation,” as defined in U.S. Treasury
Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), as to which income from the
Certificate will only be taxed in the United States;
|
|
|
(ii)
|
at
the time of the transfer, and at the close of the Transferee’s two fiscal
years preceding the year of the transfer, the Transferee had gross
assets
for financial reporting purposes (excluding any obligation of a person
related to the Transferee within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations
Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(ii)) in excess of $100 million and net assets
in
excess of $10 million;
|
|
|
(iii)
|
the
Transferee will transfer the Certificate only to another “eligible
corporation,” as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section
1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), in a transaction that satisfies the requirements
of
Sections 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i), (ii) and (iii) and Section 1.860E-1(c)(5)
of
the U.S. Treasury Regulations; and
|
|
|
(iv)
|
the
Transferee determined the consideration paid to it to acquire the
Certificate based on reasonable market assumptions (including, but
not
limited to, borrowing and investment rates, prepayment and loss
assumptions, expense and reinvestment assumptions, tax rates and
other
factors specific to the Transferee) that it has determined in good
faith.
|
None
of the above.
13. The
Transferee is not an employee benefit plan that is subject to Title I of ERISA
or a plan that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a plan subject to
any Federal, state or local law that is substantially similar to Title I of
ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and the Transferee is not acting on behalf
of
or investing plan assets of such a plan.
IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the Transferee has caused this instrument to be executed on
its
behalf, pursuant to authority of its Board of Directors, by its duly authorized
officer and its corporate seal to be hereunto affixed, duly attested, this
day
of

Provisions
Relating to Downgrade of BNY Debt Ratings.
|
(i) For
purposes of this Transaction:
|
(a)
|
A
“Collateralization
Ratings Event”
shall occur with respect to BNY (or any applicable credit support
provider) if:
|
|
(x)
|
its
short-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating is reduced
to “P-1 on
watch for downgrade” or below, and its long-term unsecured and
unsubordinated debt is reduced to ”A1 on watch for downgrade” or below
(or, if it has no short-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt
rating, its
long term rating is reduced to “Aa3 on watch for downgrade” or below) by
Xxxxx’x, or
|
|
(y)
|
its
short-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating is reduced
below “A-1”
by S&P.
|
Such
ratings are referred to herein as the “Qualifying
Ratings.”
|
(b)
|
A
“Ratings
Event”
shall occur with respect to BNY (or any applicable credit support
provider) if:
|
|
(x)
|
its
short-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating is withdrawn
or
reduced to “P-2” or below by Xxxxx’x and its long-term unsecured and
unsubordinated debt is reduced to “A3” or below (or, if it has no
short-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating, its long term
rating
is reduced to “A2” or below) by Xxxxx’x, or
|
|
(y)
|
its
long-term unsecured and unsubordinated debt rating is withdrawn
or reduced
below “BBB-” by S&P.
|
For
purposes of (a) and (b) above, such events include those occurring in connection
with a merger, consolidation or other similar transaction by BNY or any
applicable credit support provider, but they shall be deemed not to occur
if,
within 30 days thereafter (provided,
that
this
shall not be construed to extend the period within which actions are to be
taken
as provided in Paragraph 4(9)(ii) below), each of Xxxxx’x and S&P has
reconfirmed the ratings of the Certificates, as applicable, which were in
effect
immediately prior thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, a downgrade of the
rating
on the Certificates could occur in the event that BNY does not post sufficient
collateral.
|
(c)
|
“Rating
Agency Condition”
means, with respect to any particular proposed act or omission
to act
hereunder, that the Trustee
shall have received prior written confirmation from each of Xxxxx’x and
S&P, and shall have provided notice thereof to BNY, that the proposed
action or inaction would not cause a downgrade or withdrawal of
their
then-current ratings of the
Certificates.
|
|
(ii)
|
Subject,

the Rating
Agency Condition:

Event:
|
|
(w)
|
post
collateral under agreements and other instruments approved by the
Counterparty, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, and
satisfactory to Xxxxx’x and S&P, which will be sufficient to restore
the immediately prior ratings of the
Certificates,
|
|
(x)
|
assign
this Transaction to a third party, the ratings of the debt of which
(or
the ratings of the debt of the credit support provider of which)
meet or
exceed the Qualifying Ratings, on terms substantially similar to
this
Confirmation, which party is approved by the Counterparty, such
approval
not to be unreasonably withheld,
|
|
(y)
|
obtain
a guaranty of, or a contingent agreement of, another person, the
ratings
of the debt of which (or the ratings of the debt of the credit
support
provider of which) meet or exceed the Qualifying Ratings, to honor
BNY’s
obligations under this Agreement, provided
that
such other person is approved by the Counterparty, such approval
not to be
unreasonably withheld, or
|
|
(z)
|
establish
any other arrangement approved by the Counterparty, such approval
not to
be unreasonably withheld and satisfactory to Xxxxx’x and S&P which
will be sufficient to restore the immediately prior ratings of
their
Certificates.
|
|
(b)
|
Ratings
Event.
If
a Ratings Event occurs with respect to BNY (or any applicable credit
support provider), then BNY shall, at its own expense, within ten
(10)

|
|
(x)
|
assign
this Transaction to a third party, the ratings of the debt of which
(or

exceed the Qualifying Ratings, on terms substantially similar to
this
Confirmation, which party is approved by the Counterparty, such
approval
not to be unreasonably withheld,
|
|
(y)
|
obtain
a guaranty of, or a contingent agreement of, another person, the
ratings
of the debt of which (or the ratings of the debt of the credit
support
provider of which) meet or exceed the Qualifying Ratings, to honor
BNY’s
obligations under this Agreement, provided
that
such other person is approved by the Counterparty, such approval
not to be
unreasonably withheld, or
|
|
(z)
|
establish
any other arrangement approved by the Counterparty, such approval
not to
be unreasonably withheld and satisfactory to Xxxxx’x and S&P which
will be sufficient to restore the immediately prior ratings of
their
Certificates.
|
|
10)
|
BNY Payments
to be made to Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee.
BNY will, unless otherwise directed by the Supplemental Interest
Trust
Trustee,

SERVICING
CRITERIA TO BE ADDRESSED
IN
ASSESSMENT OF COMPLIANCE
Definitions
Primary
Servicer - transaction party having borrower contact
Master
Servicer - aggregator of pool assets
Securities
Administrator - waterfall calculator (may be the Trustee, or may be the Master
Servicer)
Back-up
Servicer - named in the transaction (in the event a Back up Servicer becomes
the
Primary Servicer, follow Primary Servicer obligations)
Custodian
- safe keeper of pool assets
Paying
Agent - distributor of funds to ultimate investor
Trustee
-
fiduciary of the transaction
Note:
The
definitions above describe the essential function that the party performs,
rather than the party’s title. So, for example, in a particular transaction, the
trustee may perform the “paying agent” and “securities administrator” functions,
while in another transaction, the securities administrator may perform these
functions.
Where
there are multiple checks for criteria the attesting party will identify in
their management assertion that they are attesting only to the portion of the
distribution chain they are responsible for in the related transaction
agreements.
