-----------------------------
(1) The interest rate with respect to any Distribution Date for these
interests is a per annum variable rate equal to the Net WAC Rate.
Each Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interest is hereby designated as a regular
interest in the Lower-Tier REMIC. The Class LT-A-1, Class LT-A-2, Class LT-A-3,
Class LT-A-4, Class LT-A-5, Class LT-A-6, Class LT-M-1, Class LT-M-2, Class
LT-M-3, Class LT-M-4, Class LT-M-5, Class LT-M-6, Class LT-M-7, Class LT-M-8 and
Class LT-M-9 Interests are hereby designated the LT Accretion Directed Classes
(the "LT Accretion Directed Classes").
On each Distribution Date, 50% of the increase in the
Overcollateralization Amount shall be payable as a reduction of the Lower-Tier
REMIC Principal Amount of the LT Accretion Directed Classes (each such Class
will be reduced by an amount equal to 50% of any increase in the
Overcollateralization Amount that is attributable to a reduction in the
Certificate Balance of its Corresponding Class) and shall be accrued and added
to the Lower-Tier REMIC Principal Amount of the Class LT-Accrual Interest. On
each Distribution Date, the increase in the Lower-Tier REMIC Principal Amount of
the Class LT-Accrual Interest shall not exceed interest accruals for such
Distribution Date for the Class LT-Accrual Interest. In the event that: (i) 50%
of the increase in the Overcollateralization Amount exceeds (ii) interest
accruals on the Class LT-Accrual Interest for such Distribution Date, the excess
for such Distribution Date (accumulated with all such excesses for all prior
Distribution Dates) will be added to any increase in the Overcollateralization
Amount for purposes of determining the amount of interest accrual on the Class
LT-Accrual Interest payable as principal on the LT Accretion Directed Classes on
the next Distribution Date pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph. All
payments of scheduled principal and prepayments of principal generated by the
Mortgage Loans and all Subsequent Recoveries allocable to principal shall be
allocated (i) 50% to the Class LT-Accrual Interest and (ii) 50% to the LT
Accretion Directed Classes (such principal payments and Subsequent Recoveries
shall be allocated among such LT Accretion Directed Classes in an amount equal
to 50% of the principal amounts and Subsequent Recoveries allocated to their
respective Corresponding Classes), until paid in full. Notwithstanding the
above, principal payments allocated to the Class CE Interest that result in the
reduction in the Overcollateralization Amount shall be allocated to the Class
LT-Accrual Interest (until paid in full). Realized Losses shall be applied so
that after all distributions have been made on each Distribution Date (i) the
Lower-Tier REMIC Principal Amount of each of the LT Accretion Directed Classes
is equal to 50% of the Certificate Balance of their Corresponding Class, and
(ii) the Class LT-Accrual Interest is equal to 50% of the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans plus 50% of the Overcollateralization
Amount. Any increase in the Certificate Balance of a Class of Certificates as a
result of a Subsequent Recovery shall increase the Lower-Tier REMIC Principal
Amount of the Corresponding Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interest by 50% of such
increase, and the remaining 50% of such increase shall increase the Lower-Tier
REMIC Principal Amount of the Class LT-Accrual Interest.
Upper-Tier REMIC
The Upper-Tier REMIC shall issue the interests designated in the table
below and the Class UT-R Interest, and each such interest, other than the Class
UT-R Interest, is hereby designated as a regular interest in the Upper-Tier
REMIC ("Upper-Tier REMIC Regular Interest"). The Class UT-R Interest is hereby
designated as the sole class of residual interests in the Upper-Tier REMIC and
shall be represented by the Class R Certificate.

(1) For any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period), this
interest shall bear interest at the lesser of (i) the Certificate Rate
(determined without regard to the Net WAC Rate) for the Corresponding
Class of Certificates and (ii) the Net WAC Rate.
(2) The Class CE Interest has an initial principal balance of $26,175,412.17
but will not accrue interest on such balance but will accrue interest on a
notional principal balance. As of any Distribution Date, the Class CE
Interest shall have a notional principal balance equal to the aggregate of
the Lower-Tier REMIC Principal Amounts of the Lower-Tier REMIC Regular
Interests as of the first day of the related Interest Accrual Period. With
respect to any Interest Accrual Period, the Class CE Interest shall bear
interest at a rate equal to the excess, if any, of the Net WAC Rate over
the product of (i) 2 and (ii) the weighted average of the Lower-Tier REMIC
Interest Rates of the Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interests, where the
Lower-Tier REMIC Interest Rate on the Class LT-Accrual Interest is subject
to a cap equal to zero and each LT Accretion Directed Class is subject to
a cap equal to the Upper-Tier REMIC Interest Rate on its Corresponding
Class of Upper-Tier REMIC Regular Interest. With respect to any
Distribution Date, interest that so accrues on the notional principal
balance of the Class CE Interest shall be deferred in an amount equal to
any increase in the Overcollateralization Amount on such Distribution
Date. Such deferred interest shall not itself bear interest.
On each Distribution Date, interest distributable in respect of the
Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interests for such Distribution Date shall be deemed to
be distributed on the interests in the Upper-Tier REMIC at the rates shown
above.
On each Distribution Date, all Realized Losses, Subsequent Recoveries and
all payments of principal shall be allocated to the Upper-Tier REMIC Regular
Interests until the outstanding principal balance of each such interest equals
the outstanding Class A Subclass Principal Balance or Class M Subclass Principal
Balance of the Corresponding Class of Certificates as of such Distribution Date.
(b) CRMSI, on behalf of the Trustee, shall deposit in the Collection
Account in accordance with Section 3.06 all Scheduled Payments received by it,
all other deposits required to be made to the Collection Account and all
investments made with moneys on deposit in the Collection Account, including all
income or gain from such investments, if any. If the Certificate Account is an
Investment Account, then funds on deposit in the Certificate Account shall be
held and invested in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 4.03.
Distributions from the Certificate Account shall be made in accordance with the
provisions of Articles XII and XIII to make payments in respect of the
Certificates and to pay the Servicing Fee in accordance with Section 3.13.
Amounts distributable as Cap Amounts to the related Certificates pursuant to
Section 13.01(b) shall first be deemed distributed in respect of the Class CE
Interest and then paid outside of the Upper-Tier REMIC to the related
Certificates.
The Servicer shall maintain books with respect to the Upper-Tier REMIC and
the Lower-Tier REMIC on a calendar year taxable year and on the accrual method
of accounting.
(c) None of the Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Paying Agent,
the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee shall create, or permit the creation
of, any "interests" in either REMIC within the meaning of Code Section
860D(a)(2) other than the interests represented by the Certificates.
(d) Except as otherwise provided in the Code, CRMSI shall not grant, and
none of the Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Paying Agent, the
Certificate Registrar or the Trustee shall accept, property unless (i)
substantially all of the property held by either REMIC constitutes either
"qualified mortgages" or "permitted investments" as defined in Code Sections
860G(a)(3) and (5), respectively, and (ii) no property shall be granted to
either REMIC after the Startup Day, unless such grant would not subject the
REMIC to the 100% tax on contributions to a REMIC after the Startup Day imposed
by Code Section 860G(d).
(e) None of the Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Paying Agent,
the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee shall accept on behalf of the Trust
Fund or the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC any fee or other
compensation for services and shall not accept on behalf of the Trust Fund any
income from assets other than those permitted to be held by a REMIC.
(f) None of the Servicer, the Certificate Administrator, the Paying Agent
or the Trustee shall sell or permit the sale of all or any portion of the
Mortgage Loans, or of an Eligible Investment held in an Investment Account
(other than in accordance with Sections 2.02, 2.03, 2.04 and 4.03(d)) unless
such sale is pursuant to a "qualified liquidation" as defined in Code Section
860F(a)(4)(A) and is in accordance with Section 9.01.
Section 12.05. Expenses and Liabilities of the Trust Fund.
The Depositor shall be liable for all expenses, liabilities and
obligations of the Trust Fund (other than the obligation to make distributions
in reduction of Principal Balance of the Certificates and the obligation to make
distributions of interest on the Certificates) including Trust Expenses. To the
extent such expenses, liabilities or obligations consist of federal income
taxes, including, without limitation, prohibited transaction taxes, taxes on net
income from foreclosure property and taxes on certain contributions to a REMIC
after the Startup Day, nothing shall prevent the Depositor from contesting any
such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings. If the
Paying Agent determines that on any Distribution Date the amount in the
Collection Account, after the distribution of all amounts required to be
distributed to the Holders of the Certificates has been made, is insufficient to
pay expenses or meet any obligation of the Trust Fund, the Paying Agent shall
give notice of any shortfall to the Depositor setting forth the basis for such
determination and, within ten Business Days of such notice, the Depositor shall
deliver to the Paying Agent immediately available funds in the amount of such
expenses.
Section 12.06. Tax Matters Person.
If in any taxable year there will be more than one holder of Class R
Certificate, a tax matters person may be designated with respect to the REMIC,
who will have the same duties with respect to the Upper-Tier REMIC and the
Lower-Tier REMIC as those of a "tax matters partner" under Subchapter C of
Chapter 63 of Subtitle F of the Code, and who will be, in order of priority, (i)
the Servicer or an affiliate of the Servicer, if the Servicer or such affiliate
is the holder of a residual certificate of the Upper-Tier REMIC or the
Lower-Tier REMIC at any time during the taxable year or at the time such
designation is made, (ii) if the Servicer is not a holder of a residual
certificate of the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC at the relevant
time, the Servicer as agent for the holder of the residual certificate of the
Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC, if such designation is permitted to be
made under the Code, or (iii) such holder of a residual certificate of the
Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC or person who may be designated a tax
matters person in the same manner in which a tax matters partner may be
designated under applicable Treasury Regulations, including Treasury Regulations
ss. 1.860F-4(d) and temporary Treasury Regulations ss. 301.6231(a)(7)-1T.
ARTICLE XIII
SUBORDINATION; PRIORITIES; ALLOCATION OF LOSSES
Section 13.01. Subordination; Priority of Distributions.
(a) The rights of the holders of any Subclass of Class M Certificates to
receive distributions in respect thereof on any Distribution Date shall be
subordinated to the rights of the Class A Certificateholders and the holders of
each Class M Subclass having a lower numerical designation to receive
distributions to the extent, and only to the extent, described herein. The right
of the Servicer to receive its Servicing Fee and its Additional Servicing
Compensation shall not be subordinated to the rights of Certificateholders.
(b) On each Distribution Date, the aggregate amount of Interest Proceeds
and Principal Proceeds will be applied in the following amounts, to the extent
the amount thereof is sufficient therefor, in the manner and in the order of
priority as follows:
1. The sum of Interest Proceeds and Principal Proceeds will be applied
sequentially, as follows:
a. concurrently, to the Subclasses of Class A Certificates, pro
rata, their respective Class A Subclass Interest Amounts and any Class A
Subclass Interest Shortfalls for such Distribution Date;
b. sequentially, to the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-3, Class M-4,
Class M-5, Class M-6, Class M-7, Class M-8 and Class M-9 Certificates, in
that order, their respective Class M Subclass Interest Amounts for such
Distribution Date;
c. to the Subclasses of Class A Certificates, the amounts provided
in Section 12.01(d) or (e), as applicable;
d. sequentially, to the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-3, Class M-4,
Class M-5, Class M-6, Class M-7, Class M-8 and Class M-9 Certificates, in
that order, in each case until their respective Principal Balance is
reduced to zero, an amount equal to their Class M Subclass Principal
Distribution Amount;
e. sequentially to the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-3, Class M-4,
Class M-5, Class M-6, Class M-7, Class M-8 and Class M-9 Certificates, in
that order, an amount equal to any Class M Subclass Interest Shortfall for
such Class for such Distribution Date or previously allocated thereto, and
then, sequentially, in that order, an amount equal to any Applied Loss
Amount allocated to such Class pursuant to Section 13.02 on such
Distribution Date plus any Class M Subclass Loss Amount for such Class;
f. first, concurrently to the Class A Certificates, pro rata, any
Net Civil Relief Amounts and Net Non-Supported Amounts for such
Subclasses, and then, sequentially, to the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class
M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5, Class M-6, Class M-7, Class M-8 and Class M-9
Certificates, in that order, any Net Civil Relief Amounts and Net
Non-Supported Amounts for such Class;
g. first, concurrently to the Class A Certificates, pro rata, any
Net Class A WAC Cap Amounts for such Subclasses, and then, sequentially,
to the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5, Class M-6,
Class M-7, Class M-8 and Class M-9 Certificates, in that order, any Net
Class M WAC Cap Amounts for such Class;
h. to the Holder of the Class CE Certificates, the Class CE
Distributable Amount; and
i. to the Holder of the Class R Certificate, any remaining amount.
2. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the portion of the Trust
Fund, exclusive of the Lower-Tier REMIC and Upper-Tier REMIC, be treated as a
grantor trust for purposes of Subpart E, Part I of Subchapter J of the Code. In
furtherance of such intention, neither the Servicer nor the Trustee shall vary
the investment of the Certificateholders in the grantor trust. Solely for REMIC
purposes, any amounts distributed pursuant to Section 13.01(b)(1)(g) shall be
deemed distributed to the Class CE Certificates in respect of the Class CE
Interest from the Upper-Tier REMIC and then deemed paid to the classes of
Certificates as described in Section 13.01(b)(1)(g) from the grantor trust.
Section 13.02. Allocation of Realized Losses; Recoveries.
(a) For any Distribution Date prior to the Subordination Depletion Date,
any Applied Loss Amount will be allocated to the Subclasses of Class M
Certificates, first to the Class M Subclass with the highest numerical
designation and then in order of decreasing numerical designation, until their
respective Class M Subclass Principal Balance has been reduced to zero.
This allocation of Applied Loss Amounts will be effected through the
reduction of the applicable Subclass Principal Balance. Any Applied Loss Amount
allocated in accordance with this Section 13.02 will be allocated on the
Distribution Date following the Collection Period in which such loss was

Mortgage Files will be returned to Citibank (West) when the need therefor in
connection with foreclosure or servicing no longer exists, unless the mortgage
loan is liquidated or paid in full. Citibank (West) is also authorized to
release any Mortgage or Mortgage Note to CRMSI after purchase by CRMSI of the
related mortgage loan or the property securing such mortgage loan, all as
provided in, and subject to the provisions of, the Pooling Agreement.
(c) Review of Mortgage Files; Administration; Reports. Citibank (West) will
attend to all non-discretionary details in connection with maintaining custody
of the Mortgage Files, including reviewing each Mortgage File within 90 days
after issuance of the certificates, ascertaining that all documents required to
be delivered pursuant to section 2.01, "Conveyance of Trust Fund," of the
Pooling Agreement have been executed, received and recorded, if applicable, and,
in connection therewith, delivering, in electronic form, such reports and
certifications to the Trustee and CRMSI as are required by the Pooling
Agreement. If in the course of such review, or if at any time during the term of
this agreement, Citibank (West) determines that a document or documents
constituting part of a Mortgage File is defective or missing, it will promptly
so notify, in electronic form, the Trustee and CitiMortgage in accordance with
the provisions of section 2.02, "Acceptance by Trustee," of the Pooling
Agreement, and will, within 30 days thereafter, provide the Trustee with an
updated report certifying as to the completeness of the Mortgage File, with any
applicable exceptions noted thereon. Citibank (West) will assist the Trustee and
CitiMortgage generally in the preparation of reports (including by providing
information reasonably requested as necessary to such preparation) to
certificate holders or to regulatory bodies to the extent necessitated by
Citibank (West)'s custody of the Mortgage Files.
(d) Successor trustees. Citibank (West) will, in accordance with section
8.08. "Successor Trustee," of the Pooling Agreement, amend this agreement to
make a successor Trustee the successor to the predecessor Trustee under this
agreement.
(e) Assessments of Compliance and Attestation Statements. Citibank (West)
will, in its capacity as Custodian, perform the obligations of the Custodian
under Sections 3.15(a), 3.15(b) and 3.15(c) of the Pooling Agreement, and will
provide any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure
and any Form 8-K Disclosure Information (as such terms are defined in the
Pooling Agreement) required so to be delivered by the Custodian under Section
4.09 of the Pooling Agreement.
4 Access to Records
Subject to section 3(b), upon not less than three days' notice, Citibank
(West) will permit the Trustee, CitiMortgage or any Subservicer appointed by
CitiMortgage or their duly authorized representatives, attorneys or auditors to
inspect the Mortgage Files and the books and records maintained by Citibank
(West) pursuant hereto at such times as the Trustee, CitiMortgage or any
Subservicer may reasonably request, subject only to compliance by the Trustee,
CitiMortgage or any Subservicer with the security procedures of Citibank (West)
applied by Citibank (West) to its own employees having access to these and
similar records.
5 Instructions; Authority to Act
Citibank (West) will be deemed to have received proper instructions with
respect to the Mortgage Files upon its receipt of written instructions signed by
a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or a Servicing Officer of the Servicer. A
certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Trustee may be
accepted by Citibank (West) as conclusive evidence of the authority of any such
officer to act and may be considered as in full force and effect until receipt
of written notice to the contrary by Citibank (West) from the Trustee,
CitiMortgage or any Subservicer. Such instructions may be general or specific in
terms. Citibank (West) may rely upon and will be protected in acting in good
faith upon any such written instructions received by it and which it reasonably
believes to be genuine and duly authorized with respect to all matters
pertaining to this agreement and its duties hereunder.
6 Indemnification
(a) Citibank (West) will indemnify the Trustee for any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, payments, costs or expenses of any kind whatsoever
which may be imposed on, incurred or asserted against the Trustee as the result
of any act or omission in any way relating to the maintenance and custody by
Citibank (West) of the Mortgage Files; provided, however, that Citibank (West)
will not be liable for any portion of any such amount resulting from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee.
(b) CitiMortgage will indemnify Citibank (West) and hold it harmless against
any loss, liability or expense incurred without gross negligence or bad faith on
Citibank (West)'s part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or
administration of the trust or trusts created under the Pooling Agreement or
Citibank (West)'s custody of the Mortgage Files, including the costs and
expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with
the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder or under
the Pooling Agreement. Such indemnification will survive the payment of the
certificates and termination of the Trust Fund, as well as the resignation or
removal of CitiMortgage as Servicer (if such action which caused the need for
the indemnification occurred while CitiMortgage acted as Servicer), and for
purposes of such indemnification neither the negligence nor bad faith of the
Trustee will be imputed to, or adversely affect, the right of Citibank (West) to
indemnification.
7 Limitation of Custodian's Liabilities and Duties
(a) Citibank (West) will not be responsible for preparing or filing any
reports or returns relating to federal, state or local income taxes with respect
to this agreement, other than for Citibank (West)'s compensation or for
reimbursement of expenses.
(b) Citibank (West) will not be responsible or liable for, and makes no
representation or warranty with respect to, the validity, adequacy or perfection
of any lien upon or security interest in any Mortgage File.
(c) Any other provision of this agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
Citibank (West) will have no notice, and will not be bound by any of the terms
and conditions of any other document or agreement executed or delivered in
connection with, or intended to control any part of, the transactions
anticipated by or referred to in this agreement unless Citibank (West) is a
signatory party to that document or agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, Citibank (West) will be deemed to have notice of the terms and
conditions (including without limitation definitions not otherwise set forth in
full in this agreement) of other documents and agreements executed or delivered
in connection with, or intended to control any part of, the transactions
anticipated by or referred to in this agreement, to the extent such terms and
provisions are referenced, or are incorporated by reference, into this agreement
only as long as the Trustee or CitiMortgage will have provided a copy of any
such document or agreement to Citibank (West).
(d) Citibank (West)'s rights and obligations will only be such as are
expressly set forth in this agreement or the Pooling Agreement. In no event will
Citibank (West) be obligated to ascertain or take action except as expressly
provided in this agreement or the Pooling Agreement.
(e) Nothing in this agreement will be deemed to impose on Citibank (West) any
obligation to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction, other than (i) a
jurisdiction where a Mortgage File is or may be held by Citibank (West), and
(ii) where failure to qualify could have a material adverse effect on Citibank
(West) or its property or business or on the ability of Citibank (West) to
perform it duties hereunder.
(f) Subject to section 3, under no circumstances will Citibank (West) be
obligated to verify the authenticity of any signature on any of the documents
received or examined by it in connection with this agreement or the authority or
capacity of any person to execute or issue such document, nor will Citibank
(West) be responsible for the value, form, substance, validity, perfection
(other than by taking and continuing possession of the Mortgage Files),
priority, effectiveness or enforceability of any of such documents, nor will
Citibank (West) be under a duty to inspect, review or examine the documents to
determine whether they are appropriate for the represented purpose or that they
have been actually recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be
on their face.
(g) Citibank (West) will have no duty to ascertain whether or not any cash
amount or payment has been received by the Trustee, the CRMSI or any third
person.
(h) Citibank (West) may assign its rights and obligations under this
agreement, in whole or in part, to any Affiliate; however, Citibank (West) will
notify CRMSI, CitiMortgage and the Trustee of any such assignment. Citibank
(West) may not assign its rights or obligations under this agreement, in whole
or in part, to any other entity without the prior written consent of CRMSI,
CitiMortgage and the Trustee, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.
An "Affiliate" is an entity that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled
by or is under common control with Citibank (West). Notwithstanding any such
assignment, Citibank (West) will remain liable for all of its obligations under
this agreement unless the assignment has been approved by CRMSI, CitiMortgage
and the Trustee.
(i) Subject to section 6, "Indemnification," neither Citibank (West) nor any
of its Affiliates, directors, officers, agents, and employees will be liable for
o any action or omission to act hereunder except for its own or such person's
gross negligence, willful misconduct, breach of this agreement or violation
of applicable law, or
o any special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages resulting from any
action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection
herewith even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
(j) Citibank (West) will not be required to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
under this Agreement or the Pooling Agreement or in the exercise of any of its
rights and obligations, if, in its sole judgment, it will believe that repayment
of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not
assured to it.
(k) Citibank (West) will not be responsible for delays or failures in
performance resulting from acts beyond its control, such as acts of God,
strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war or terrorism, epidemics, nationalization,
expropriation, currency restrictions, governmental regulations superimposed
after the fact, fire, communication line failures, computer viruses, power
failures, earthquakes or other disasters.
(l) Any entity into which Citibank (West) may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which Citibank (West) will be a party, or any
entity succeeding to the business of Citibank (West), will be the successor of
Citibank (West) 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.
8. Advice of Counsel
Citibank (West) may rely and act upon advice of counsel with respect to its
performance as Custodian, and will not be liable for any action it reasonably
takes pursuant to such advice, provided that such action is not in violation of
applicable federal or state law.
9. Effective Period, Termination and Amendment, and Interpretive and Additional
Provisions
This agreement may be terminated (a) by Citibank (West)'s resignation as
Custodian, or (b) by either CitiMortgage or the Trustee. In each case, such
termination will be effected by notice to the other parties given no less than
60 days prior to termination. Upon notice of such termination, CitiMortgage will
use its reasonable best efforts to select a successor Custodian reasonably
acceptable to the Trustee upon substantially the same terms and conditions as
set forth in this agreement. If no such successor Custodian has been selected by
the 50th day after such notice, the Trustee may, upon prior notice to
CitiMortgage, select a successor Custodian. If no successor Custodian has been
selected by CitiMortgage or the Trustee by the effective date of the Citibank
(West)'s termination, the Trustee will act as successor Custodian until the
Trustee and CitiMortgage agree on a successor Custodian.
At, or as soon as practicable after, the termination of this agreement,
Citibank (West) will deliver the Mortgage Files to the successor Custodian at
such place as the successor Custodian reasonably designates.
10. Binding Arbitration
Any misunderstanding or dispute between Citibank (West) and CRMSI or
CitiMortgage arising out of this agreement will be settled through consultation
and negotiation in good faith and a spirit of mutual cooperation. However, if
these attempts fail, such misunderstandings or disputes will be decided by
binding arbitration conducted, upon request by either of them, in New York, New
York, before a single arbitrator designated by the American Arbitration
Association (the AAA), in accordance with the terms of the Commercial
Arbitration Rules of the AAA, and to the maximum extent applicable, the United
States Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code). Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, either Citibank (West), CRMSI or CitiMortgage
may proceed to a court of competent jurisdiction to obtain equitable relief at
any time. An arbitrator may not award punitive damages or other damages not
measured by the prevailing party's actual damages. To the maximum extent
practicable, an arbitration proceeding under this agreement will be concluded
within 180 days of the filing of the dispute with the AAA. This arbitration
clause will survive any termination or expiration of this agreement and if any
term, covenant, condition or provision of this arbitration clause is found to be
unlawful, invalid or unenforceable, the remaining parts of the arbitration
clause will not be affected thereby and will remain fully enforceable.
11. Governing Law
This agreement will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the
laws of the State of New York.
