ARTICLE II
COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATION AB
Section 2.01. Intent of the Parties; Reasonableness.
The Purchaser and the Company acknowledge and agree that the purpose of
Article II of this Reg AB Addendum is to facilitate compliance by the
Purchaser and any Depositor with the provisions of Regulation AB and related
rules and regulations of the Commission and that the provisions of this Reg AB
Addendum shall be applicable to all Mortgage Loans included in a
Securitization Transaction closing on or after January 1, 2006, regardless
whether the Mortgage Loans were purchased by the Purchaser from the Company
prior to the date hereof. Although Regulation AB is applicable by its terms
only to offerings of asset-backed securities that are registered under the
Securities Act, the Company acknowledges that investors in privately offered
securities may require that the Purchaser or any Depositor provide comparable
disclosure in unregistered offerings. References in this Agreement to
compliance with Regulation AB include provision of comparable disclosure in
private offerings.
Neither the Purchaser nor any Depositor shall exercise its right to
request delivery of information or other performance under these provisions
other than in good faith, or for purposes other than compliance with the
Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the
Commission thereunder (or the provision in a private offering of disclosure
comparable to that required under the Securities Act). The Company
acknowledges that interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB may
change over time, whether due to interpretive guidance provided by the
Commission or its staff, consensus among participants in the asset-backed
securities markets, advice of counsel, or otherwise, and agrees to comply with
reasonable requests made by the Purchaser or any Depositor in good faith for
delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of evolving
interpretations of Regulation AB. In connection with any Securitization
Transaction, the Company shall cooperate with the Purchaser to deliver to the
Purchaser (including any of its assignees or designees) and any Depositor, any
and all statements, reports, certifications, records and any other information
necessary in the good faith determination of the Purchaser or any Depositor to
permit the Purchaser or such Depositor to
3
comply with the provisions of Regulation AB, together with such disclosures
relating to the Company, any Subservicer, any Third-Party Originator and the
Mortgage Loans, or the servicing of the Mortgage Loans, reasonably believed by
the Purchaser or any Depositor to be necessary in order to effect such
compliance.
The Purchaser and the Company also acknowledge and agree Section
2.02(a)(i)-(v), Section 2.03(c), (e) and (f), Section 2.04, Section 2.05 and
Section 2.06 of this Reg AB Addendum shall only be applicable with respect to
any Mortgage Loan if the Company (or Subservicer, if any) services such
Mortgage Loan following the closing date of a related Securitization
Transaction. The Purchaser and the Company also acknowledge and agree that
this Reg AB Addendum is intended to supplement the terms of the Agreement and,
to the extent inconsistent, the rights and obligations under the Agreement
shall continue to apply with respect to any Reconstitution (as defined in the
Agreement) that is not covered by the definition of "Securitization
Transaction" in this Reg AB Addendum; provided, however, that the requirement
to provide an accountants' report pursuant to Section 6.05 of the Agreement
shall be deemed satisfied with respect to any Reconstitution that occurs prior
to, on or following the date hereof by providing an accountants' attestation
that satisfies the requirements of Section 2.05(a)(ii) of this Reg AB
Addendum.
For purposes of this Reg AB Addendum, the term "Purchaser" shall refer
to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Mortgage Capital Inc. and its successors in interest and
assigns. In addition, any notice or request that must be "in writing" or
"written" may be made by electronic mail.
The Purchaser shall cooperate with the Company by providing timely
notice of requests for information under these provisions and by reasonably
limiting such requests to information necessary, in the Purchaser's reasonable
judgment, to comply with Regulation AB.

administrator) a written description (in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Purchaser and such Depositor) of the role and function of
each Subcontractor utilized by the Company or any Subservicer, specifying (i)

cause any such Subcontractor used by the Company (or by any Subservicer) for

and of the Depositor, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against
any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses
and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that any

alleged to be contained in any information, report, certification,
accountants' letter or other material provided in written or electronic
form under this Article II by or on behalf of the Company, or provided
under this Article II by or on behalf of any Subservicer, Subcontractor
or Third-Party Originator (collectively, the "Company Information"), or
(B) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Company Information
a material fact required to be stated in the Company Information or
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, by
way of clarification, that clause (B) of this paragraph shall be
construed solely by reference to the Company Information and not to any
other information communicated in connection with a sale or purchase of
securities, without regard to whether the Company Information or any
portion thereof is presented together with or separately from such other
information;
(ii) any breach by the Company under this Article II, including
particularly any failure by the Company, any Subservicer, any
Subcontractor or any Third-Party Originator to deliver any information,

identify pursuant to Section 2.06(b) any Subcontractor "participating in

set forth in Section 2.02(a) or in a writing furnished pursuant to

13
such breach is not cured by such closing date, or any breach by the
Company of a representation or warranty in a writing furnished pursuant
to Section 2.02(b) to the extent made as of a date subsequent to such
closing date; or
(iv) negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Company in
connection with its performance under this Article II.
If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or
insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Party, then the Company agrees
that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified
Party as a result of any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal
fees and expenses and related costs, judgments and any other costs, fees and
expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such Indemnified Party on the one
hand and the Company, any Subservicer, any Subcontractor or any Third-Party
Originator on the other.
In the case of any failure of performance described in clause (a)(ii) of
this Section, the Company shall promptly reimburse the Purchaser, any
Depositor, as applicable, and each Person responsible for the preparation,
execution or filing of any report required to be filed with the Commission
with respect to such Securitization Transaction, or for execution of a
certification pursuant to Rule 13a-14(d) or Rule 15d-14(d) under the Exchange

incurred by each such party in order to obtain the information, report,
certification, accountants' letter or other material not delivered as required
by the Company, any Subservicer, any Subcontractor or any Third-Party
Originator.
This indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement or
the termination of any party to this Agreement.
(b) (i) Any failure by the Company, any Subservicer, any Subcontractor
or any Third-Party Originator to deliver any information, report,
certification, accountants' letter or other material when and as required
under this Article II, or any breach by the Company of a representation or
warranty set forth in Section 2.02(a) or in a writing furnished pursuant to
Section 2.02(b) and made as of a date prior to the closing date of the related
Securitization Transaction, to the extent that such breach is not cured by
such closing date, or any breach by the Company of a representation or
warranty in a writing furnished pursuant to Section 2.02(b) to the extent made
as of a date subsequent to such closing date, shall, except as provided in
clause (ii) of this paragraph, immediately and automatically, without notice
or grace period, constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Company
under the Agreement and any applicable Reconstitution Agreement, and shall
entitle the Purchaser or Depositor, as applicable, in its sole discretion to
terminate the rights and obligations of the Company as servicer under the
Agreement and/or any applicable Reconstitution Agreement without payment
(notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any applicable Reconstitution
Agreement to the contrary) of any compensation to the Company (and if the
Company is servicing any of the Mortgage Loans in a Securitization
Transaction, appoint a successor servicer reasonably acceptable to the Master
Servicer for such Securitization Transaction); provided that to the extent
that any provision of the Agreement and/or any applicable Reconstitution
Agreement expressly provides for the survival of certain rights or obligations
following termination of the Company as servicer, such provision shall be
given effect.
14
(ii) Any failure by the Company, any Subservicer or any
Subcontractor to deliver any information, report, certification or
accountants' letter when and as required under Section 2.04 or 2.05,
including (except as provided below) any failure by the Company to
identify pursuant to Section 2.06(b) 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 information, report, certification or accountants' letter was
required to be delivered shall constitute an Event of Default with
respect to the Company under the Agreement and any applicable
Reconstitution Agreement, and shall entitle the Purchaser or Depositor,
as applicable, in its sole discretion to terminate the rights and
obligations of the Company as servicer under the Agreement and/or any
applicable Reconstitution Agreement without payment (notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary) of any compensation to the
Company; provided that to the extent that any provision of the Agreement
and/or any applicable Reconstitution Agreement expressly provides for
the survival of certain rights or obligations following termination of
the Company as servicer, such provision shall be given effect.
Neither the Purchaser nor any Depositor shall be entitled to terminate
the rights and obligations of the Company pursuant to this subparagraph
(b)(ii) if a failure of the Company to identify a Subcontractor
"participating in the servicing function" within the meaning of Item
1122 of Regulation AB was attributable solely to the role or functions
of such Subcontractor with respect to mortgage loans other than the
Mortgage Loans.
(iii) The Company shall promptly reimburse the Purchaser (or any
designee of the Purchaser, such as a master servicer) and any Depositor,
as applicable, for all reasonable expenses incurred by the Purchaser (or
such designee) or such Depositor, as such are incurred, in connection
with the termination of the Company as servicer and the transfer of
servicing of the Mortgage Loans to a successor servicer. The provisions
of this paragraph shall not limit whatever rights the Purchaser or any
Depositor may have under other provisions of the Agreement and/or any
applicable Reconstitution Agreement or otherwise, whether in equity or
at law, such as an action for damages, specific performance or
injunctive relief.
