WITNESSETH THAT
In consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties
hereto agree as follows:
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
REMIC I will consist of all of the assets of the Trust Fund (excluding

LT-A-1 Interest, Class LT-A-2 Interest, Class LT-M-1 Interest, Class LT-M-2
Interest, Class LT-B Interest (together, the "Subsidiary REMIC Group 1
Accretion Directed Classes"), Class LT-1-Accrual Interest (the "Subsidiary
REMIC Class LT-Accrual Interest (the "Subsidiary REMIC Accrual Class",
together with the "Subsidiary REMIC Accretion Directed Classes, the
"Subsidiary REMIC Interests") which will be uncertificated and will represent
the "regular interests" in REMIC I. REMIC II will consist of the Subsidiary
REMIC Regular Interests and will be evidenced by the IT-A-1 Interest, Class
IT-A-2 Interest, Class IT-M-1 Interest, Class IT-M-2 Interest, Class IT-B
Interest and Class IT-X Interests and Class IT-X Interests (the "Intermediate
REMIC Regular Interests") which will be uncertificated and will represent the
"regular interests" in REMIC II. Class R-I Interest, Class R-II Interest and
Class R-III Interest will represent the sole class of residual interest in
each of REMIC I, REMIC II and REMIC III, respectively. The Trustee will hold
the Subsidiary REMIC Regular Interests and Intermediate REMIC Regular
Interests. The Master REMIC will consist of the Intermediate REMIC Regular
Interests and will be evidenced by the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-1, Class
M-2, Class B, Class X, and the Class A-IO Certificates (which will represent
the "regular interests" in the Master REMIC). The Class AR Certificates will

(i) The Subsidiary REMIC Regular Interests shall have the
following principal balances, pass-through rates and Corresponding
Classes of Certificates in the manner set forth in the following table:

----------- -------------------------- -------------- -----------------
-----------
On each Distribution Date, 50% of the increase in the Overcollateralized
Amount will be payable as a reduction of the principal balances of the
Subsidiary REMIC Accretion Directed Classes (to each such class in an amount
equal to 1/2 of the interest paid in reduction of the principal balance of the
Corresponding Class of Master REMIC Interest) to each such Class in an amount
equal to 1/2 of the interest paid in reduction of the principal balance of the
Corresponding Class of Master REMIC Interest and will be accrued and added to
the principal balance of the Subsidiary REMIC Accrual Class. On each
Distribution Date, the increase in the principal balance of the Subsidiary
REMIC Accrual Class may not exceed interest accruals for such Distribution
Date for the Subsidiary REMIC Accrual Class. In the event that: (i) 50% of the
increase in the Overcollateralized Amount exceeds (ii) interest accruals on
the Subsidiary REMIC Accrual Class 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 Overcollateralized
Amount for purposes of determining the amount of interest accrual on the
Subsidiary REMIC Accrual Class payable as principal on the Subsidiary REMIC
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 shall be allocated
50% to the Subsidiary REMIC Accrual Class, and 50% to the Subsidiary REMIC
Accretion Directed Classes to each such Class in an amount equal to 1/2 of the
interest paid in reduction of the principal balance of the Corresponding Class
of Master REMIC Interest, until paid in full of the interest paid in reduction
of the principal balance of the Corresponding Class of Master REMIC Interest).
Notwithstanding the above, principal payments allocated to the Class X
Certificates that result in the reduction in the Overcollateralized Amount
shall be allocated to the Subsidiary REMIC Accrual Class (until paid in full).
Realized losses shall be applied so that after all distributions have been
made on each Distribution Date (i) the principal balances of each of the
Subsidiary REMIC Accretion Directed Classes is equal to 50% of the principal
balance of their Corresponding Class, and (ii) the Subsidiary REMIC Accrual
Class is equal to 50% of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Pool
plus 50% of the Overcollateralized Amount.

(ii) The Intermediate REMIC Regular Interests shall have the
following principal balances, pass-through rates and Corresponding

Overcollateralized Amount as of the Cutoff Date, which is not
entitled to interest, and (ii) an interest having a notional balance

Interests having an Interest Rate as discussed in note (2) below.
(4) The Excess of Net WAC Rate over the product of: (i) 2 and (ii) the

public recording office in returning any recorded document, the Seller shall
deliver to the Custodian, within 60 days of the Closing Date, an Officer's
Certificate which shall (i) identify the recorded document, (ii) state that
the recorded document has not been delivered to the Custodian due solely to a
delay caused by the public recording office, and (iii) state the amount of
time generally required by the applicable recording office to record and

after receipt of such information and in any event within thirty (30) days
after the receipt thereof, and the Trustee need not cause to be recorded any
Assignment of Mortgage which relates to a Mortgage Loan in any jurisdiction
under the laws of which, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered by
the Seller (at the Seller's expense) to the Trustee within twenty (20) days of

Certificateholders' interest in the related Mortgage Loan.

(a) The Trustee acknowledges receipt of the documents identified in the

that it holds and will hold or will cause its agent to hold such documents and
the other documents delivered to it constituting the Mortgage Files, and that
it holds or will hold or will cause its agent to hold such other assets as are
included in the Trust Fund, in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all

unless otherwise permitted by the Rating Agencies.
The Trustee agrees to deliver on the Closing Date to the Depositor and the
Servicer an Initial Certification from the Custodian in the form annexed
hereto as Exhibit G. Based on its review and examination, and only as to the
documents identified in such Initial Certification, the Custodian acknowledges
that such documents appear regular on their face and relate to such Mortgage
Loan. The Trustee shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or
examine said documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine
that the same are genuine, enforceable or appropriate for the represented
purpose or that they have actually been recorded in the real estate records or
that they are other than what they purport to be on their face.
39
Not later than 90 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deliver
to the Depositor and the Seller and the Servicer a Final Certification in the
form annexed hereto as Exhibit H, with any applicable exceptions noted
thereon.
If, in the course of such review, the Trustee is notified by the Custodian
that any document constituting a part of a Mortgage File which does not meet
the requirements of Section 2.01, the Trustee shall cause the Custodian to
list such as an exception in the Final Certification; provided, however, that
the Trustee shall not make any determination as to whether (i) any endorsement
is sufficient to transfer all right, title and interest of the party so
endorsing, as noteholder or assignee thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note or
(ii) any assignment is in recordable form or is sufficient to effect the
assignment of and transfer to the assignee thereof under the mortgage to which
the assignment relates.
The Seller shall promptly correct or cure such defect within 90 days from
the date it is so notified of such defect and, if the Seller does not correct
or cure such defect within such period, the Seller shall either (i) substitute
for the related Mortgage Loan a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, which
substitution shall be accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions
set forth in Section 2.03, or (ii) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the
Trustee within 90 days from the date the Seller was notified of such defect in
writing at the Repurchase Price of such Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that
if the cure, substitution or repurchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this
provision is required by reason of a delay in delivery of any documents by the
appropriate recording office, then the Seller shall be given 720 days from the
Closing Date to cure such defect or substitute for, or repurchase such
Mortgage Loan; and further provided, that the Seller shall have no liability
for recording any Assignment of Mortgage in favor of the Trustee or for the
Trustee's failure to record such Assignment of Mortgage, and the Seller shall
not be obligated to repurchase or cure any Mortgage Loan as to which such
Assignment of Mortgage is not recorded. The Trustee shall deliver written
notice to each Rating Agency within 270 days from the Closing Date indicating
each Mortgage (a) which has not been returned by the appropriate recording
office or (b) as to which there is a dispute as to location or status of such
Mortgage. Such notice shall be delivered every 90 days thereafter until the
related Mortgage is returned to the Trustee or Custodian. Any such
substitution effected more than 90 days after the Closing Date shall not be
effected prior to the delivery to the Trustee of the Opinion of Counsel
required by Section 2.05 hereof and any substitution shall not be effected
prior to the additional delivery to the Trustee, or the Custodian on its
behalf, of a Request for Release substantially in the form of Exhibit M and
the Mortgage File for any such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan. The
Repurchase Price for any such Mortgage Loan shall be deposited by the Seller
in the applicable Collection Account on or prior to the Business Day
immediately preceding such Distribution Date in the month following the month
of repurchase and, upon receipt of such deposit and certification with respect
thereto in the form of Exhibit M hereto, the Trustee, or the Custodian on its
behalf, shall release the related Mortgage File to the Seller and shall
execute and deliver at such entity's request such instruments of transfer or
assignment prepared by such entity, in each case without recourse, as shall be
necessary to vest in such entity, or a designee, the Trustee's interest in any
Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.
The Trustee agrees to cause the Custodian to execute and deliver on the
Subsequent Transfer Date to the Depositor and the Servicer a Subsequent
Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit G. Based on its review and
examination, and only as to the documents
40
identified in such Subsequent Certification, the Custodian shall
acknowledge that such documents appear regular on their face and relate to
such Subsequent Mortgage Loan. The Trustee shall be under no duty or
obligation to inspect, review or examine said documents, instruments,
certificates or other papers to determine that the same are genuine,
enforceable or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have
actually been recorded in the real estate records or that they are other than
what they purport to be on their face.
Not later than 90 days after the end of the Prefunding Period, the Trustee
shall cause the Custodian to deliver to the Depositor and the Servicer a Final
Certification with respect to the Subsequent Mortgage Loans in the form
annexed hereto as Exhibit H with any applicable exceptions noted thereon.
If, in the course of such review of the Mortgage Files relating to the
Subsequent Mortgage Loans, the Custodian finds any document constituting a
part of a Mortgage File which does not meet the requirements of Section 2.01,
the Trustee shall cause the Custodian to list such as an exception in the
Final Certification; provided, however that the Trustee shall not make any
determination as to whether (i) any endorsement is sufficient to transfer all
right, title and interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee
thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note or (ii) any assignment is in recordable
form or is sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer to the assignee
thereof under the mortgage to which the assignment relates. The Seller shall
cure any such defect or repurchase or substitute for any such Mortgage Loan in
accordance with Section 2.02(a).
(b) It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller to cure,
substitute for or to repurchase any Mortgage Loan which does not meet the
requirements of Section 2.01 shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such
defect available to the Trustee, the Depositor and any Certificateholder
against the Seller.
(c) All of the Mortgage Files are being held pursuant to the Custodial
Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
parties hereto acknowledge that the functions of the Trustee with respect to
the custody, acceptance, inspection and release of the Mortgage Files pursuant
to Sections 2.01, 2.02, 2.05, 3.12 shall be performed by the Custodian. At the
expense of DLJMC, the Trustee, from time to time, shall instruct or cause the
instruction of the Custodian to deliver the Mortgage Files to the Trustee for
completion and recordation of the Assignments of Mortgage.
SECTION 2.03 Representations and Warranties of the Seller and Servicer.
(a) Each of DLJMC and Calmco, in their capacities as Seller or Servicer,
hereby makes on behalf of themselves the representations and warranties set
forth in Schedule IIA and Schedule IIB hereto, respectively, and by this
reference incorporated herein, to the Depositor and the Trustee, as of the
Closing Date, or if so specified therein, as of the applicable Cut-off Date.
(b) DLJMC, in its capacity as Seller, hereby makes the representations and
warranties set forth in Schedule IB to the Depositor and the Trustee, as of
the Closing Date, or the date specified therein, with respect to the Mortgage
Loans identified on Schedule IB hereto and, with
41
respect to the Mortgage Loans identified on Schedule IA hereto, the Seller
hereby makes the representations and warranties set forth therein as of June
14, 2000.
(c) The Depositor hereby assigns the representations and warranties set
forth in Schedule IIIA, and by this reference incorporated herein, to the
Trustee, as of the Closing Date, or if specified therein, as of the Cut-off
Date or such other date as may be specified.
(d) Upon discovery by any of the parties hereto of a breach of a
representation or warranty made pursuant to Section 2.03(b) that materially
and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage
Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt notice thereof to
the other parties. The Seller hereby covenants that within 90 days of the
earlier of its discovery or its receipt of written notice from any party of a
breach of any representation or warranty made by it pursuant to Section
2.03(b) which materially and adversely affects the value of the related
Mortgage Loan or the interests of the Certificateholders, it shall cure such
breach in all material respects, and if such breach is not so cured, shall,
(i) if such 90-day period expires prior to the second anniversary of the
Closing Date, remove such Mortgage Loan (a "Deleted Mortgage Loan") from the
Trust Fund and substitute in its place a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan,
in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section; or (ii)
repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans from the Trustee at
the Repurchase Price in the manner set forth below; provided, however, that
any such substitution pursuant to (i) above shall not be effected prior to the
delivery to the Trustee of the Opinion of Counsel required by Section 2.05
hereof, if any, and any such substitution pursuant to (i) above shall not be
effected prior to the additional delivery to the Trustee of a Request for
Release substantially in the form of Exhibit M and the Mortgage File for any
such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan. The Seller shall promptly reimburse
the related Servicer and the Trustee for any actual out-of-pocket expenses
reasonably incurred by the related Servicer or the Trustee in respect of
enforcing the remedies for such breach. With respect to any representation and
warranty described in this Section which are made to the best of the Seller's
knowledge, if it is discovered by either the Depositor, the Seller or the
Trustee that the substance of such representation and warranty is inaccurate
and such inaccuracy materially and adversely affects the value of the related
Mortgage Loan or the interests of the Certificateholders therein,
notwithstanding the Seller's lack of knowledge with respect to the substance
of such representation or warranty, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach
of the applicable representation or warranty.
With respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the
Seller shall deliver to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders
the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the related assignment of the Mortgage, and
such other documents and agreements as are required by Section 2.01(b), with
the Mortgage Note endorsed and the Mortgage assigned as required by Section
2.01. Scheduled Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loans in the month of substitution shall not be part of the Trust Fund and
will be retained by the Seller. For the month of substitution, distributions
to Certificateholders will include the monthly payment due on any Deleted
Mortgage Loan for such month and thereafter the Seller shall be entitled to
retain all amounts received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The
Seller shall amend the related Mortgage Loan Schedule for the benefit of the
Certificateholders to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan and
the substitution of the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and the
Seller shall deliver the amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee and the
Depositor. Upon such substitution, the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan
42
or Loans shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects,
and the Seller shall be deemed to have made with respect to such Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the date of substitution, the
representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 2.03(b) with respect
to such Mortgage Loan. Upon any such substitution and the deposit to the
applicable Collection Account of the amount required to be deposited therein
in connection with such substitution as described in the following paragraph,
the Trustee shall or shall cause the Custodian to release the Mortgage File
held for the benefit of the Certificateholders relating to such Deleted
Mortgage Loan to the Seller and shall execute and deliver at the Seller's
direction such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the Seller,
in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest title in the
Seller, or its designee, the Trustee's interest in any Deleted Mortgage Loan
substituted for pursuant to this Section 2.03.
For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the related
Servicer will determine the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal
balance of all such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of
substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all such
Deleted Mortgage Loans (after application of the scheduled principal portion
of the monthly payments due in the month of substitution). The amount of such
shortage (the "Substitution Adjustment Amount") plus an amount equal to the
aggregate of any unreimbursed Advances with respect to such Deleted Mortgage
Loans shall be deposited in the applicable Collection Account by the Seller on
or before the Business Day immediately preceding the related Servicer
Remittance Date in the month succeeding the calendar month during which the
related Mortgage Loan became required to be purchased or replaced hereunder.
In the event that the Seller shall have repurchased a Mortgage Loan, the
Repurchase Price therefor shall be deposited in the related Collection Account
pursuant to Section 3.06 on or before the Business Day immediately preceding
the related Servicer Remittance Date in the month following the month during
which the Seller became obligated hereunder to repurchase or replace such
Mortgage Loan and upon such deposit of the Repurchase Price and receipt of a
Request for Release in the form of Exhibit M hereto, the Trustee shall release
or cause the Custodian to release the related Mortgage File held for the
benefit of the Certificateholders to such Person, and the Trustee shall
execute and deliver at such Person's direction such instruments of transfer or
assignment prepared by such Person, in each case without recourse, as shall be
necessary to transfer title from the Trustee. It is understood and agreed that
the obligation under this Agreement of any Person to cure, repurchase or
substitute any Mortgage Loan as to which a breach has occurred and is
continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against such Persons respecting
such breach available to Certificateholders, the Depositor or the Trustee on
their behalf.
The representations and warranties made pursuant to this Section 2.03
shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to the Trustee, or to
the Custodian on the Trustee's behalf, for the benefit of the

SECTION 2.04 Representations and Warranties of the Depositor as to the
Mortgage Loans.
The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee with respect
to each Mortgage Loan that, as of the Closing Date, assuming good title has
been conveyed to the Depositor, the Depositor had good title to the Mortgage
Loans and Mortgage Notes, and did not encumber the Mortgage Loans during its
period of ownership thereof, other than as contemplated by the Agreement.
It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set
forth in this Section 2.04 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to the

SECTION 2.05 Delivery of Opinion of Counsel in Connection with
Substitutions.
(a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no
substitution pursuant to Section 2.02 shall be made more than 90 days after
the Closing Date unless the Seller delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be at the expense of either the
Trustee or the Trust Fund, addressed to the Trustee, to the effect that such
substitution will not (i) result in the imposition of the tax on "prohibited
transactions" on the Trust Fund or contributions after the Startup Date, as
defined in Sections 860F(a)(2) and 860G(d) of the Code, respectively, or (ii)
cause any REMIC hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding.
(b) Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Seller, a Servicer, or the
Trustee 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 promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days of
discovery) give written notice thereof to the other parties. In connection
therewith, the Trustee shall require the Seller, at the Seller's option, to
either (i) substitute, if the conditions in Section 2.03(d) with respect to
substitutions are satisfied, a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for the
affected Mortgage Loan, or (ii) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan within
90 days of such discovery in the same manner as it would a Mortgage Loan for a
breach of representation or warranty made pursuant to Section 2.03. The

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 contained
in Section 2.03.

ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF MORTGAGE LOANS
SECTION 3.01 Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans.
For and on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Servicer shall service
and administer the related Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement and with Accepted Servicing Practices. In connection with such
servicing and administration, the Servicer shall have full power and
authority, acting alone and/or through Subservicers as provided in Section
3.02 hereof, to do or cause to be done any and all things that it may deem
necessary or desirable in connection with such servicing and administration,
including but not limited to, the power and authority, subject to the terms
hereof (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 (but only in the manner provided in this
Agreement), (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and other Liquidation
Proceeds and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the
ownership of the Mortgaged Property seeming any Mortgage Loan, provided that a
Servicer shall not take any action that is inconsistent with or prejudices the
interests of the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan or
the rights and interests of the Depositor, the Trustee or the
Certificateholders under this Agreement. The Servicer shall represent and
protect the interests of the Trust Fund in the same manner as it protects its
own interests in mortgage loans in its own portfolio in any claim, proceeding
or litigation regarding a Mortgage Loan, and shall not make or permit any
modification, waiver or amendment of any Mortgage Loan which would cause any
REMIC hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of
any tax under Section 860F(a) or Section 860G(d) of the Code. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer, in its own name or in the name
of the Depositor and the Trustee, is hereby authorized and empowered by the
Depositor and the Trustee, when the Servicer believes it appropriate in its
reasonable judgment, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, the
Depositor, the Certificateholders or any of them, 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 with
respect to the Mortgaged Properties held for the benefit of the
Certificateholders. The Servicer shall prepare and deliver to the Depositor
and/or the Trustee such documents requiring execution and delivery by either
or both of them as are necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to
service and administer the Mortgage Loans to the extent that the Servicer is
not permitted to execute and deliver such documents pursuant to the preceding
sentence. Upon receipt of such documents, the Depositor and/or the Trustee
shall execute such documents and deliver them to the Servicer.
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 payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties,
which advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from related
collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.06, and further as
provided in Section 3.09. The costs incurred by a Servicer, if any, in
effecting the timely payments of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged
Properties and related insurance premiums shall not, for the purpose of
calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders, be added
47
to the Stated Principal Balances of the related Mortgage Loans,
notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loans so permit.
With respect to the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer of such Mortgage Loans
agrees that, with respect to the Mortgagors of such Mortgage Loans, the
Servicer shall accurately and fully report its borrower credit files to
Equifax, Transunion & Experian in a timely manner.
The Servicer hereby acknowledges that, to the extent the Servicer has
previously serviced some or all of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to another
servicing agreement, the provisions contained in this Agreement shall
supersede the provisions contained in such other servicing agreement.
SECTION 3.02 Subservicing; Enforcement of the Obligations of Subservicers.
(a) The Mortgage Loans may be subserviced by a Subservicer on behalf of
the related Servicer in accordance with the servicing provisions of this
Agreement, provided that the Subservicer is a FNMA-approved lender or a FHLMC
seller/servicer in good standing, and no event has occurred, including but not
limited to a change in insurance coverage, which would make it unable to
comply with the eligibility requirements for lenders imposed by FNMA or for
seller/servicer imposed by FHLMC, or which would require notification to FNMA
or FHLMC. A Servicer may perform any of its servicing responsibilities
hereunder or may cause the Subservicer to perform any such servicing
responsibilities on its behalf, but the use by the Servicer of the Subservicer
shall not release the Servicer from any of its obligations hereunder and the
Servicer shall remain responsible hereunder for all acts and omissions of the
Subservicer as fully as if such acts and omissions were those of the Servicer.
The Servicer shall pay all fees and expenses of any Subservicer engaged by the
Servicer from its own funds.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall be entitled to outsource
one or more separate servicing functions to a Person (each, an "Outsourcer")
that does not meet the eligibility requirements for a Subservicer, so long as
such outsourcing does not constitute the delegation of the Servicer's
obligation to perform all or substantially all of the servicing of the related
Mortgage Loans to such Outsourcer. In such event, the use by a Servicer of any
such Outsourcer shall not release the related Servicer from any of its
obligations hereunder and the Servicer shall remain responsible hereunder for
all acts and omissions of such Outsourcer as fully as if such acts and
omissions were those of the Servicer, and the Servicer shall pay all fees and
expenses of the Outsourcer from the Servicer's own funds.
(b) At the cost and expense of a Servicer, without any right of
reimbursement from the Depositor, Trustee, or the applicable Collection
Account, the Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights and
responsibilities of its Subservicer and arrange for any servicing
responsibilities to be performed by a successor Subservicer meeting the
requirements set forth in Section 3.02(a); provided, however, that nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to prevent or prohibit the Servicer, at the
Servicer's option, from electing to service the related Mortgage Loans itself.
In the event that a Servicer's responsibilities and duties under this
Agreement are terminated pursuant to Section 7.01, and if requested to do so
by the Trustee, the Servicer shall at its own cost and expense terminate the
rights and responsibilities of its Subservicer as soon as is reasonably
possible. The Servicer shall pay all fees, expenses or penalties necessary in
order to
48
terminate the rights and responsibilities of its Subservicer from the
Servicer's own funds without any right of reimbursement from the Depositor,
Trustee, or the applicable Collection Account.
(c) Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to
agreements or arrangements between a Servicer and its Subservicer, a Servicer
and its Outsourcer, or any reference herein to actions taken through the
Subservicer, the Outsourcer, or otherwise, no Servicer shall be relieved of
its obligations to the Depositor, Trustee or Certificateholders and shall be
obligated to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if it
alone were servicing and administering the related Mortgage Loans. The
Servicer shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with its Subservicer and
Outsourcer for indemnification of the Servicer by such Subservicer or
Outsourcer, as applicable, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be
deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.
For purposes of this Agreement, a Servicer shall be deemed to have
received any collections, recoveries or payments with respect to the related
Mortgage Loans that are received by a related Subservicer or Outsourcer
regardless of whether such payments are remitted by the Subservicer or
Outsourcer to the Servicer.
Any Subservcing Agreement and any other transactions or services relating
to the Mortgage Loans involving a Subservicer shall be deemed to be between
the Subservicer, and the related Servicer alone, and the Depositor, the
Trustee and the other Servicer shall have no obligations, duties or
liabilities with respect to a Subservicer including no obligation, duty or
liability to pay a Subservicer's fees and expenses.
SECTION 3.03 [Reserved]
SECTION 3.04 Notification of Adjustments.
With respect to each Mortgage Loan with an adjustable Mortgage Rate, the
related Servicer shall adjust the Mortgage Rate on the related Adjustment Date
in compliance with the requirements of applicable law and the related Mortgage
and Mortgage Note. The related Servicer shall execute and deliver any and all
necessary notices required under applicable law and the terms of the related
Mortgage Note and Mortgage regarding the Mortgage Rate adjustments. Upon the
discovery by the related Servicer or the receipt of notice from the Trustee
that the Servicer has failed to adjust a Mortgage Rate in accordance with the
terms of the related Mortgage Note, that Servicer shall immediately deposit in
the Certificate Account from its own funds the amount of any interest loss or
deferral caused the Trustee thereby.
SECTION 3.05 Trustee to Act as Servicer.
In the event that the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the
Servicer hereunder (including by reason of an Event of Default, as defined in
Section 7.01), the Trustee or its successor shall thereupon assume all of the
rights and obligations of the Servicer hereunder arising thereafter (except
that the Trustee shall not be (i) liable for losses of the Servicer pursuant
to Section 3.10 hereof or any acts or omissions of the related predecessor
Servicer hereunder, (ii) obligated to make Advances if it is prohibited from
doing so by applicable law, (iii) obligated to effectuate repurchases or
substitutions of Mortgage Loans hereunder including, but not limited to,
repurchases or substitutions of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 2.02 or
2.03 hereof or (iv)
49
deemed to have made any representations and warranties of the Servicer
hereunder). Any such assumption shall be subject to Section 7.02 hereof.
The Servicer shall, upon request of the Trustee, but at the expense of the
Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to
each Subservicing Agreement or substitute Subservicing Agreement and the
Mortgage Loans then being serviced thereunder and hereunder by the Servicer
and an accounting of amounts collected or held by it and otherwise use its
best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the substitute
Subservicing Agreement to the assuming party at the expense of the outgoing
Servicer.
SECTION 3.06 Collection of Mortgage Loans; Collection Account; Certificate
Account; Prefunding Account; Capitalized Interest Account
(a) Continuously from the date hereof until the principal and interest on
all Mortgage Loans have been paid in full or such Mortgage Loans have become
Liquidation Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall proceed in accordance with the
customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage loan servicers
to collect all payments due under each of the related Mortgage Loans when the
same shall become due and payable to the extent consistent with this Agreement
and the terms and provisions of the GEMICO PMI Policy and any related Primary
Insurance Policy and shall take special care with respect to Mortgage Loans
for which a Servicer collects escrow payments in ascertaining and estimating
Escrow Payments and all other charges that will become due and payable with
respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties, to the end that
the installments payable by the Mortgagors will be sufficient to pay such
charges as and when they become due and payable. Consistent with the
foregoing, the Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment
charge and (ii) extend the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a
period not greater than 180 days; provided, however, that the Servicer cannot
extend the maturity of any such Mortgage Loan past the date on which the final
payment is due on the latest maturing Mortgage Loan as of the Initial Cut-off
Date. In the event of any such arrangement, the related Servicer shall make
Advances on the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions of
Section 4.01 during the scheduled period in accordance with the amortization
schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such
arrangements. The Servicer shall not be required to institute or join in
litigation with respect to collection of any payment (whether under a
Mortgage, Mortgage Note or otherwise or against any public or governmental
authority with respect to a taking or condemnation) if it reasonably believes
that enforcing the provision of the Mortgage or other instrument pursuant to
which such payment is required is prohibited by applicable law.
(b) The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received
pursuant to a Mortgage Loan separate and apart from any of its own funds and
general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Collection
Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts, titled "[Servicer's
name], in trust for the Holders of Credit Suisse First Boston Mortgage
Securities Corp., CSFB ABS Trust Series 2001-HE12, CSFB Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, Series 2001-HE12". Each Collection Account shall be an Eligible
Account. Any funds deposited in a Collection Account shall at all times be
either invested in Eligible Investments or shall be fully insured to the full
extent permitted under applicable law. Funds deposited in a Collection Account
may be drawn on by the Servicer in accordance with Section 3.09.
50
(c) The Servicer shall deposit in the applicable Collection Account on a
daily basis, and, in each case, retain therein, the following collections
remitted by Subservicers or payments received by the Servicer and payments
made by the Servicer subsequent to the Cut-off Date, other than payments of
principal and interest due on or before the Cut-off Date:
(i) all payments on account of principal on the related Mortgage
Loans, including all Principal Prepayments;
(ii) all payments on account of interest on the related Mortgage
Loans adjusted to the per annum rate equal to the Mortgage Rate reduced
by the Servicing Fee Rate;
(iii) all Liquidation Proceeds on the related Mortgage Loans;
(iv) all Insurance Proceeds on the related Mortgage Loans including
amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.10 (other than

accordance with Section 3.10);
(v) all Advances made by the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.01;
(vi) all Substitution Adjustment Amounts and Repurchase Prices on
the related Mortgage Loans;
(vii) with respect to each Principal Prepayment on the related
Mortgage Loans, the Prepayment Interest Shortfall, if any, for the
Prepayment Period. The aggregate of such deposits shall be made from the
Servicer's own funds, without reimbursement therefor, up to a maximum
amount per month equal to the Compensating Interest Payment, if any, for
the Mortgage Loans serviced by that Servicer and Distribution Date;
(viii) any amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer in
respect of net monthly income from REO Property pursuant to Section 3.12;
and
(ix) any other amounts required to be deposited hereunder.

be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, Ancillary Income need not be deposited by the
Servicer into such Collection Account. In addition, notwithstanding the
provisions of this Section 3.06, the Servicer may deduct from amounts received
by it, prior to deposit to the applicable Collection Account, any portion of
any Scheduled Payment representing the Servicing Fee. In the event that a
Servicer shall remit any amount not required to be remitted, it may at any
time withdraw or direct the institution maintaining the related Collection
Account to withdraw such amount from such Collection Account, any provision
herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Such withdrawal or direction may be
accomplished by delivering written notice thereof to the Trustee or such other
institution maintaining such Collection Account which describes the amounts
deposited in error in such Collection Account. The Trustee may conclusively
rely on such notice and shall have no liability in connection with the
withdrawal of such funds at the direction of a Servicer. The Servicer shall

required to be remitted, it may at any time in writing direct the Trustee to

which describes the amounts deposited in error in the Certificate Account. All
funds deposited in the Certificate Account shall be held by the Trustee in

the case of a Collection Account, the Servicer Remittance Date and (ii) in the
case of the Prefunding Account, the Business Day immediately preceding a
Subsequent Transfer Date and, in each case, shall not be sold or disposed of
prior to its maturity. All such Eligible Investments shall be made in the name
of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders. All income and gain
net of any losses realized from any such balances or investment of funds on

Prefunding Account. The Trustee in its fiduciary capacity shall not be liable
for the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any investment or lack of
investment of funds held in the Collection Account or the Prefunding Account
(other than as provided in this Section 3.06(e)) and made in accordance with

the Depositor of any proposed change of the location of the related Collection

performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments, and
the Servicer shall make Servicing Advances from its own funds to effect such
payments to the extent that the Servicer, in accordance with Accepted
Servicing Practices, deems such Servicing Advance recoverable, and (ii) any
penalties or late charges incurred in connection with such bills; provided,
however, the Servicer shall not be so obligated with respect to any Mortgage
which does not provide for Escrow Payments; provided, further, Calmco shall be
entitled to reimbursement as a Servicing Advance for any such penalties or
late charges related to a Special Serviced Mortgage Loan and such bills and
charges due prior to the transfer of the servicing of such Mortgage Loan to
Calmco pursuant to Section 3.05.
(f) No later than the Closing Date, the Servicer shall establish and
maintain a sub-account of the Collection Account titled "Calmco Servicing
L.P., Simple Interest Excess Sub-Account in trust for the Holders of Credit
Suisse First Boston Mortgage Securities Corp., CSFB ABS Trust Series
2001-HE12, CSFB Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2001-HE12". The
Servicer shall, on each Determination Date transfer from the Collection
Account to the Simple Interest Excess Sub-Account all Net Simple Interest
Excess, if any, pursuant to Section 3.09(a)(ix), and shall maintain a record
of all such deposits.
(g) The Servicer shall withdraw amounts on deposit in the applicable
Simple Interest Excess Sub-Account on each Determination Date for deposit to
the Certificate Account in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount on
deposit therein, and (ii) the Net Simple Interest Shortfall for such
Distribution Date.
(h) The Servicer shall distribute to the Class X Certificateholder 90% of
the balance in the applicable Simple Interest Excess Sub-Account on the
Distribution Date each year occurring in June, commencing in June, 2002. Such
distributions shall be deemed to be made on a first-in, first-out basis. In
addition, Calmco shall clear and terminate the Simple Interest Excess
Sub-Account upon the termination of this Agreement and retain any funds
remaining therein.
55
(i) Amounts on deposit in the Simple Interest Excess Sub-Accounts may be
invested in Eligible Investments. All income and gain net of any losses
realized from any such balances or investment of funds on deposit in a Simple
Interest Excess Sub-Account shall be for the benefit of the Servicer as
servicing compensation and shall be remitted to it monthly. The amount of any
net investment losses in a Simple Interest Excess Sub-Account shall promptly
be deposited by the Servicer in such Simple Interest Excess Sub-Account.
SECTION 3.08 Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the
Mortgage Loans; Inspections.
(a) The Servicer shall afford the Depositor and the Trustee reasonable
access to all records and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans and all
accounts, insurance information and other matters relating to this Agreement,
such access being afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request
and during normal business hours at the office designated by the Servicer. In
addition, the servicer shall provide to Calmco reasonable access to all
records and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans serviced by it that
become Special Serviced Mortgage Loans.
(b) Upon reasonable advance notice in writing, the servicer will provide
to each Certificateholder which is a savings and loan association, bank or
insurance company certain reports and reasonable access to information and
documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans sufficient to permit such
Certificateholder to comply with applicable regulations of the OTS or other
regulatory authorities with respect to investment in the Certificates;
provided that the Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed by each such
Certificateholder for actual expenses incurred by the Servicer in providing
such reports and access.
(c) The Servicer shall inspect the related Mortgaged Properties as often
as deemed necessary by the Servicer in the Servicer's sole discretion, to
assure itself that the value of such Mortgaged Property is being preserved. In
addition, if any Mortgage Loan is more than 60 days delinquent, the Servicer
shall immediately inspect the related Mortgaged Property and shall conduct
subsequent inspections in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices or as
may be required by the primary mortgage guaranty insurer. The Servicer shall
keep a written or electronic report of each such inspection.
SECTION 3.09 Permitted Withdrawals from the Collection Accounts and
Certificate Account.
(a) The Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the related
Collection Account for the following purposes:
(i) to pay to the Servicer (to the extent not previously retained by
the Servicer) the servicing compensation to which it is entitled pursuant
to Section 3.15, and to pay to the Servicer, as additional servicing
compensation, earnings on or investment income with respect to funds in
or credited to such Collection Account;
(ii) to reimburse the Servicer for unreimbursed Advances made by it,
such right of reimbursement pursuant to this subclause (ii) being limited
to amounts received on the Mortgage Loan(s) in respect of which any such
Advance was made (including
56
without limitation, late recoveries of payments, Liquidation
Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds to the extent received by the Servicer);
(iii) to reimburse the Servicer for any Nonrecoverable Advance
previously made;
(iv) to reimburse the Servicer for (A) unreimbursed Servicing
Advances, the Servicer's right to reimbursement pursuant to this clause
(iv) with respect to any Mortgage Loan being limited to amounts received

interest (including, without limitation, Liquidation Proceeds and
Insurance Proceeds with respect to such Mortgage Loan) respecting which
any such advance was made and (B) for unpaid Servicing Fees as provided
in Section 3.12 hereof;
(v) to pay to the purchaser, with respect to each Mortgage Loan or
property acquired in respect thereof that has been purchased pursuant to
Section 2.02, 2.03 or 3.11, all amounts received thereon after the date
of such purchase;
(vi) to reimburse the Seller, the related Servicer or the Depositor
for expenses incurred by any of them and reimbursable pursuant to Section
3.10 or 6.03 hereof;
(vii) to withdraw any amount deposited in such Collection Account
and not required to be deposited therein;
(viii) on or prior to 4:00 p.m. New York time on the Servicer
Remittance Date preceding each Distribution Date, to withdraw an amount
equal to the sum of the portion of the Interest Remittance Amount, the
Principal Remittance Amount and the Loss Mitigation Advisor Fee in such
Collection Account applicable to the Mortgage Loans serviced by the
Servicer for such Distribution Date and all Prepayment Premiums received
during the related Prepayment Period and remit such amount to the Trustee
for deposit in the Certificate Account;
(ix) to deposit to the Simple Interest Excess Sub-Account any amount
required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 3.07(f); and
(x) to clear and terminate such Collection Account upon termination
of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01 hereof.
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 related Collection Account pursuant to such subclauses (i), (ii), (iv) and
(v). Prior to making any withdrawal from a Collection Account pursuant to
subclause (iii), the related Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee a
certificate of a Servicing Officer indicating the amount of any previous
Advance determined by the Servicer to be a Nonrecoverable Advance and
identifying the related Mortgage Loans(s), and their respective portions of
such Nonrecoverable Advance.
(b) The Trustee shall withdraw funds from the Certificate Account for
distributions to Certificateholders and GEMICO in the manner specified in this
Agreement (and to withhold
57
from the amounts so withdrawn, the amount of any taxes that it is
authorized to withhold pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 8.11). In
addition, the Trustee may from time to time make withdrawals from the
Certificate Account for the following proposes:
(i) to pay to itself any investment income from balances in the
Certificate Account prior to distributions to Certificateholders;
(ii) on or prior to each Distribution Date, to pay to the Loss
Mitigation Advisor, the Loss Mitigation Advisor Fee for that Distribution
Date;
(iii) to withdraw and return to the Servicer for deposit to the
applicable Collection Account any amount deposited in the Certificate
Account and not required to be deposited therein; and
(iv) to clear and terminate the Certificate Account upon termination
of the Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01 hereof.
SECTION 3.10 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance; Mortgage Impairment
Insurance and Primary Insurance Policy; Claims; Restoration of Mortgaged
Property.
(a) The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan
hazard insurance such that all buildings upon the Mortgaged Property are
insured by a generally acceptable insurer rated either: "V" or better in the
current Best's Key Rating Guide ("Best's") or acceptable to FNMA and/or FHLMC
against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as
are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, in an
amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable
value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan and (ii) the greater of
(A) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (B) an amount
such that the proceeds of such policy shall be sufficient to prevent the
Mortgagor and/or the mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer.
If upon origination of the Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgaged Property
was located in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Flood
Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such flood
insurance has been made available), the related Servicer shall cause a flood
insurance policy to be maintained with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Such
policy shall meet the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal
Insurance Administration and be in an amount representing coverage 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 mortgage 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 related
Servicer determines in accordance with applicable law and pursuant to the FNMA
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 that the Mortgagor must obtain
such flood insurance coverage, and if said Mortgagor fails to obtain the
required flood insurance coverage within 45 days after
58
such notification, the Servicer shall immediately force place the required
flood insurance on the Mortgagor's behalf.
If a Mortgage is secured by a unit in a condominium project, the related
Servicer shall verify that the coverage required of the owner's association,
including hazard, flood, liability, and fidelity coverage, is being maintained
in accordance with the then current FNMA or FHLMC requirements, and secure
from the owner's association its agreement to notify the Servicer promptly of
any change in the insurance coverage or of any condemnation or casualty loss
that may have a material effect on the value of the Mortgaged Property as
security.
The Servicer shall cause to be maintained on each Mortgaged Property such
other additional special hazard insurance as may be required pursuant to such
applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall
require such additional insurance, or pursuant to the requirements of any
Primary Insurance Policy insurer, or as may be required to conform with
Accepted Servicing Practices.
All policies required hereunder shall name the Servicer as loss payee and
shall be endorsed with standard or union mortgagee clauses, without
contribution, which shall provide for prior written notice of any
cancellation, reduction in amount or material change in coverage.
A Servicer shall not interfere with the Mortgagor's freedom of choice at
the origination of such Mortgage Loan in selecting either his insurance
carrier or agent, provided, however, that the Servicer shall not accept any
such insurance policies from insurance companies unless such companies are
rated: V in Best's or acceptable FNMA and/or FHLMC and are licensed to do
business in the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located. The
Servicer shall determine that such policies provide sufficient risk coverage
and amounts, that they insure the property owner, and that they properly
describe the property address.
Pursuant to Section 3.06, any amounts collected by the Servicer under any
such policies (other than amounts to be deposited in the related Escrow
Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged
Property, or property acquired in liquidation of the Mortgage Loan, or to be
released to the Mortgagor, in accordance with the Servicer's normal servicing
procedures) shall be deposited in the related Collection Account (subject to
withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.09(a)).
Any cost incurred by the Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall
not, for the purpose of calculating monthly distributions to the
Certificateholders or remittances to the Trustee for their benefit, be added
to the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms
of the Mortgage Loan so permit. Such costs shall be recoverable by the
Servicer out of late payments by the related Mortgagor or out of Liquidation
Proceeds or otherwise to the extent permitted by Section 3.09 hereof. It is
understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to
be required of any Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in respect of
a Mortgage other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as
shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance.
(b) In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket
policy insuring against losses arising from fire and hazards covered under
extended coverage on all of the related
59
Mortgage Loans, then, to the extent such policy provides coverage in an
amount equal to the amount required pursuant to Section 3.10(a) and otherwise
complies with all other requirements of Section 3.10(a), it shall conclusively
be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in Section 3.10(a).
Any amounts collected by the Servicer under any such policy relating to a
Mortgage Loan shall be deposited in the related Collection Account subject to
withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.09(a). Such policy may contain a deductible
clause, in which case, in the event that there shall not have been maintained
on the related Mortgaged Property a policy complying with Section 3.10(a), and
there shall have been a loss which would have been covered by such policy, the
Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account at the time of such loss the
amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such
deductible clause, such amount to be deposited from the Servicer's funds,
without reimbursement therefor. In connection with its activities as Servicer
of the related Mortgage Loans, the Servicer agrees to present, on behalf of
itself, the Depositor, and the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy.
(c) With respect to each Mortgage Loan covered by a Primary Insurance
Policy as of the Cut-off Date, the Servicer shall, without any cost to the
Depositor or Trustee, maintain or cause the Mortgagor to maintain in full
force and effect a Primary Insurance Policy insuring that portion of the
Mortgage Loan in excess of either 75% or 78% of value, and shall pay or shall
cause the Mortgagor to pay, the premium thereon on a timely basis, until the
loan-to-value ratio of such Mortgage Loan is reduced to 80% or until
terminated pursuant to the Homeowners Protection Act of 1998, 12 USC ss.4901,
et seq or otherwise prohibited by law. In the event that such Primary
Insurance Policy shall be terminated otherwise than required by law, the
Servicer shall obtain from another Qualified Insurer a comparable replacement
policy, with a total coverage equal to the remaining coverage of such
terminated Primary Insurance Policy. If the insurer shall cease to be a
Qualified Insurer, the Servicer shall determine whether recoveries under the
Primary Insurance Policy are jeopardized for reasons related to the financial
condition of such insurer, it being understood that the Servicer shall in no
event have any responsibility or liability for any failure to recover under
the Primary Insurance Policy for such reason. If the Servicer determines that
recoveries are so jeopardized, it shall notify the Mortgagor, if required, and
obtain from another Qualified Insurer a replacement insurance policy. The
Servicer shall not take any action inconsistent with Accepted Servicing
Practices which would result in noncoverage under any applicable Primary
Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Servicer would
have been covered thereunder. In connection with any assumption or
substitution agreement entered into or to be entered into pursuant to Section
3.11, the Servicer shall promptly notify the insurer under the related Primary
Insurance Policy, if any, of such assumption or substitution of liability in
accordance with the terms of such Primary Insurance Policy and shall take all
actions which may be required by such insurer as a condition to the
continuation of coverage under such Primary Insurance Policy. If such Primary
Insurance Policy is terminated as a result of such assumption or substitution
of liability, the Servicer shall obtain a replacement Primary Insurance Policy
as provided above.
With respect to Mortgage Loans covered by a Primary Insurance Policy, the
Servicer agrees to effect timely payment of the premiums on each Primary
Insurance Policy, and such costs not otherwise recoverable shall be
recoverable by the Servicer from the related liquidation proceeds.
60
In connection with its activities as servicer, the Servicer agrees to
prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Depositor, the Trustee and the
Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any Primary Insurance Policy
in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such Primary Insurance
Policy and, in this regard, to take such reasonable action as shall be
necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Insurance Policy respecting
defaulted Mortgage Loans. Pursuant to Section 3.06, any amounts collected by a
Servicer under any Primary Insurance Policy shall be deposited in the related
Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.09.
(d) The Servicer shall take all actions necessary in order to maintain or
cause to be maintained the GEMICO PMI Policy in full force and effect until
this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.01, except to the extent of
actions for which the Servicer is responsible under this Section 3.10(d). On
each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall remit to GEMICO the GEMICO PMI Fee.
In the event that such GEMICO PMI Policy shall be terminated otherwise than
required by law, Calmco shall use its best efforts to obtain from another
Qualified Insurer a comparable replacement policy, with a total coverage equal
to the remaining coverage of such terminated GEMICO PMI Policy and a cost not
in excess of the GEMICO PMI Fee. If GEMICO shall cease to be a Qualified
Insurer, Calmco shall use its best efforts to obtain from another Qualified
Insurer a replacement insurance policy in accordance with the preceding
sentence. Calmco shall be entitled to reimbursement for all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred in obtaining a replacement insurance policy
pursuant to Section 3.09.
In connection with its activities as servicer, the Servicer agrees to
prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Depositor, the Trustee and the
Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under the GEMICO PMI Policy in a
timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such the GEMICO PMI Policy and,
in this regard, to take such reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit
recovery under the GEMICO PMI Policy respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans.
Pursuant to Section 3.06, any amounts collected by a Servicer under the GEMICO
PMI Policy shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal
pursuant to Section 3.09. The Servicer shall be responsible for taking all
actions required under the GEMICO PMI Policy to cause each GEMICO PMI Mortgage
Loan serviced by it to continue to be eligible for coverage under the GEMICO
PMI Policy, and to maximize proceeds of any claim thereunder. The Servicer
shall be solely responsible for complying with all reporting and other
information requirements under the GEMICO PMI Policy, with respect to all
GEMICO PMI Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall not take any action inconsistent
with Accepted Servicing Practices which would result in noncoverage under the
GEMICO PMI Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Servicer would
have been covered thereunder. In connection with any assumption or
substitution agreement entered into or to be entered into pursuant to Section
3.11, the Servicer shall promptly notify the insurer under the GEMICO PMI
Policy, if any, of such assumption or substitution of liability in accordance
with the terms of the GEMICO PMI Policy and shall take all actions which may
be required by such insurer as a condition to the continuation of coverage
under the GEMICO PMI Policy.
(e) The Servicer need not obtain the approval of the Trustee prior to
releasing any Insurance Proceeds to the Mortgagor to be applied to the
restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property if such release is in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. At a minimum, the
61
Servicer shall comply with the following conditions in connection with any
such release of Insurance Proceeds:
(i) the Servicer shall receive satisfactory independent verification
of completion of repairs and issuance of any required approvals with
respect thereto;
(ii) the Servicer shall take all steps necessary to preserve the
priority of the lien of the Mortgage, including, but not limited to
requiring waivers with respect to mechanics' and materialmen's liens; and
(iii) pending repairs or restoration, the Servicer shall place the
Insurance Proceeds in the related Escrow Account.
If the Trustee is named as an additional loss payee, the related Servicer
is hereby empowered to endorse any loss draft issued in respect of such a
claim in the name of the Trustee.
SECTION 3.11 Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.
(a) The Servicer shall use its best efforts to enforce any "due-on-sale"
provision contained in any related Mortgage or Mortgage Note and to deny
assumption by the person to whom the Mortgaged Property has been or is about
to be sold whether by absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether
or not the Mortgagor remains liable on the Mortgage and the Mortgage Note.
When the Mortgaged Property has been conveyed by the Mortgagor, the related
Servicer shall, to the extent it has knowledge of such conveyance, exercise
its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan order the
"due-on-sale" clause applicable thereto, provided, however, that the Servicer
shall not exercise such rights if prohibited by law from doing so or if the
exercise of such rights would impair or threaten to impair any recovery under
the related Primary Insurance Policy, if any.
(b) If the Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law
to enforce such "due-on-sale" clause, the Servicer shall enter into (i) an
assumption and modification agreement with the person to whom such property
has been conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable under the
Mortgage Note and the original Mortgagor remains liable thereon or (ii) in the
event the Servicer is unable under applicable law to require that the original
Mortgagor remain liable under the Mortgage Note, a substitution of liability
agreement with the purchaser of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to which the
original Mortgagor is released from liability and the purchaser of the
Mortgaged Property is substituted as Mortgagor and becomes liable under the
Mortgage Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Servicer shall not be deemed
to be in default under this Section by reason of any transfer or assumption
which the Servicer reasonably believes it is restricted by law from
preventing, for any reason whatsoever. In connection with any such assumption,
no material term of the Mortgage Note, including without limitation, the
Mortgage Rate borne by the related Mortgage Note, the term of the Mortgage
Loan or the outstanding principal amount of the Mortgage Loan shall be
changed.
(c) To the extent that any Mortgage Loan is assumable, the Servicer shall
inquire diligently into the creditworthiness of the proposed transferee, and
shall use the underwriting criteria for approving the credit of the proposed
transferee which are used by FNMA with respect to underwriting mortgage loans
of the same type as the Mortgage Loans. If the credit of the
62
proposed transferee does not meet such underwriting criteria, the related
Servicer diligently shall, to the extent permitted by the Mortgage or the
Mortgage Note and by applicable law, accelerate the maturity of the Mortgage
Loan.
(d) Subject to the Servicer's duty to enforce any due-on-sale clause to
the extent set forth in this Section 3.11, in any case in which a Mortgaged
Property has been conveyed to a Person by a Mortgagor, and such Person is to
enter into an assumption agreement or modification agreement or supplement to
the Mortgage Note or Mortgage that requires the signature of the Trustee, or
if an instrument of release signed by the Trustee is required releasing the
Mortgagor from liability on the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall prepare and
deliver or cause to be prepared and delivered to the Trustee for signature and
shall direct, in writing, the Trustee to execute the assumption agreement with
the Person to whom the Mortgaged Property is to be conveyed and such
modification agreement or supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or other
instruments as are reasonable or necessary to carry out the terms of the
Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise to comply with any applicable laws
regarding assumptions or the transfer of the Mortgaged Property to such
Person. In connection with any such assumption, no material term of the
Mortgage Note may be changed. Together with each such substitution, assumption
or other agreement or instrument delivered to the Trustee for execution by it,
the related Servicer shall deliver an Officer's Certificate signed by a
Servicing Officer stating that the requirements of this subsection have been
met in connection therewith. The related Servicer shall notify the Trustee
that any such substitution or assumption agreement has been completed by
forwarding to the Trustee the original of such substitution or assumption
agreement, which in the case of the original 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. Any fee collected by a Servicer for entering into
an assumption or substitution of liability agreement will be retained by the
Servicer as additional servicing compensation.
The Trust Fund shall treat the rights of the Class A-IO Certificates, in
the portion of the Trust Fund consisting of the Prepayment Premium, as the
beneficial interest in a grantor trust and not as an interest in or an
obligation of REMIC I, REMIC II or the Master REMIC for federal income tax
purposes.
SECTION 3.12 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans; Repurchase of
Certain Mortgage Loans.
(a) The Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to foreclose upon or
otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the
related Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no
satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments.
In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion, the Servicer shall
take such action as (i) the Servicer would take under similar circumstances
with respect to a similar mortgage loan held for its own account for
investment, (ii) shall be consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, (iii)
the Servicer shall determine consistently with Accepted Servicing Practices to
be in the best interest of the Depositor, Trustee and Certificateholders, and
(iv) is consistent with the requirements of the insurer under any Required
Insurance Policy; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be required
to expend its own funds in connection with any foreclosure or towards the
restoration of any property unless it shall determine (i) that such
restoration and/or foreclosure will increase the proceeds of liquidation of
the related
63
Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself of such expenses and (ii) that
such expenses will be recoverable to it through Liquidation Proceeds
(respecting which it shall have priority for purposes of withdrawals from the
related Collection Account). The Servicer shall be responsible for all other
costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however,
that it shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof from the Liquidation
Proceeds with respect to the related Mortgaged Property or otherwise pursuant
to Section 3.08(a).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in
connection with a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure,
in the event the Servicer has reasonable cause to believe that a Mortgaged
Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, or if the
Trustee otherwise requests, an environmental inspection or review of such
Mortgaged Property conducted by a qualified inspector shall be arranged for by
the Servicer. Upon completion of the inspection, the Servicer shall promptly
provide the Trustee with a written report of environmental inspection.
In the event the environmental inspection report indicates that the
Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes,
the related Servicer shall not proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a
deed in lieu of foreclosure if the estimated costs of the environmental clean
up, as estimated in the environmental inspection report, together with the
Servicing Advances made by the Servicer and the estimated costs of foreclosure
or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure exceeds the estimated value of
the Mortgaged Property. If however, the aggregate of such clean up and
foreclosure costs and Servicing Advances as estimated in the environmental
inspection report are less than or equal to the estimated value of the
Mortgaged Property, then the Servicer may, in its reasonable judgment and in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, choose to proceed with
foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure and the Servicer
shall be reimbursed for all reasonable costs associated with such foreclosure
or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure and any related environmental
clean up costs, as applicable, from the related Liquidation Proceeds, or if
the Liquidation Proceeds are insufficient to fully reimburse the Servicer, the
Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from amounts in the related
Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.08(a) hereof. In the event the
Servicer does not proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of
foreclosure pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph, the Servicer
shall be reimbursed for all Servicing Advances made with respect to the
related Mortgaged Property from the related Collection Account pursuant to
Section 3.08(a) hereof, and the Servicer shall have no further obligation to
service such Mortgage Loan under the provisions of this Agreement.
(b) With respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale
shall be taken in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, or its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders. The
Trustee's name shall be placed on the title to such REO Property solely as the
Trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity. The related Servicer
shall ensure that the title to such REO Property references this Agreement and
the Trustee's capacity hereunder. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO
Property, the Servicer shall in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices
manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the purpose of its
prompt disposition and sale. The Servicer, either itself or through an agent
selected by the Servicer, shall manage, conserve, protect and operate the REO
Property in the same manner that it manages, conserves, protects and operates
other foreclosed property for its own account, and in the same manner that
similar property in the same locality as the REO Property is managed.
64
The Servicer shall furnish to the Trustee on or before each Distribution
Date a statement with respect to any REO Property covering the operation of
such REO Property for the previous calendar month and such other information
as the Trustee shall reasonably request and which is necessary to enable the
Trustee to comply with the reporting requirements of the REMIC Provisions. The
net monthly rental income, if any, from such REO Property shall be deposited
in the Collection Account no later than the close of business on each
Determination Date. The Servicer shall perform the tax reporting and
withholding required by Sections 1445 and 6050J of the Code with respect to
foreclosures and abandonments, the tax reporting required by Section 6050H of
the Code with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest from individuals and
any tax reporting required by Section 6050P of the Code with respect to the
cancellation of indebtedness by certain financial entities, by preparing such
tax and information returns as may be required for filing.
To the extent consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, the related
Servicer shall also maintain on each REO Property fire and hazard insurance
with extended coverage in amount which is equal to the outstanding principal
balance of the related Mortgage Loan (as reduced by any amount applied as a
reduction of principal at the time of acquisition of the REO Property),
liability insurance and, to the extent required and available under the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, flood insurance in the amount
required above.
(c) In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any Mortgaged Property as
aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a
Mortgage Loan, the related Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged Property
prior to three years after the end of the calendar year of its acquisition by
the Trust Fund unless (i) the Trustee shall have been supplied with an Opinion
of Counsel to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such Mortgaged
Property subsequent to such three-year period will not result in the
imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of any REMIC hereunder as
defined in Section 860F of the Code or cause any REMIC hereunder to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding, in which
case the Trust Fund may continue to hold such Mortgaged Property (subject to
any conditions contained in such Opinion of Counsel) or (ii) the Servicer
shall have applied for, prior to the expiration of such three-year period, an
extension of such three-year period in the manner contemplated by Section
856(e)(3) of the Code, in which case the three-year period shall be extended
by the applicable extension period. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, no Mortgaged Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be
rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used for the
production of income by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or
pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause such Mortgaged Property to fail to
qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of
the Code or (ii) subject any REMIC hereunder to the imposition of any federal,
state or local income taxes on the income earned from such Mortgaged Property
under Section 860G(c) of the Code or otherwise, unless the related Servicer
has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund with respect to the
imposition of any such taxes.
In the event of a default on a Mortgage Loan one or more of whose obligor
is not a United States Person, as that term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30)
of the Code, in connection with any foreclosure or acquisition of a deed in
lieu of foreclosure (together, "foreclosure") in respect of such Mortgage
Loan, the related Servicer will cause compliance with the provisions of
Treasury Regulation Section 1.1445-2(d)(3) (or any successor thereto)
necessary to assure that no withholding tax obligation arises with respect to
the proceeds of such foreclosure except to
65
the extent, if any, that proceeds of such foreclosure are required to be
remitted to the obligors on such Mortgage Loan.
(d) The decision of a Servicer to foreclose on a defaulted Mortgage Loan
shall be subject to a determination by the Servicer that the proceeds of such
foreclosure would exceed the costs and expenses of bringing such a proceeding.
The income earned from the management of any REO Properties, net of
reimbursement to the Servicer for expenses incurred (including any property or
other taxes) in connection with such management and net of applicable accrued
and unpaid Servicing Fees, and unreimbursed Advances and Servicing Advances,
shall be applied to the payment of principal of and interest on the related
defaulted Mortgage Loans (with interest accruing as though such Mortgage Loans
were still current) and all such income shall be deemed, for all purposes in
this Agreement, to be payments on account of principal and interest on the
related Mortgage Notes and shall be deposited into the related Collection
Account. To the extent the net income received during any calendar month is in
excess of the amount attributable to amortizing principal and accrued interest
at the related Mortgage Rate on the related Mortgage Loan for such calendar
month, such excess shall be considered to be a partial prepayment of principal
of the related Mortgage Loan.
(e) The proceeds from any liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, as well as any
income from an REO Property, will be applied in the following order of
priority: first, to reimburse the related Servicer for any related
unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Servicing Fees; second, to reimburse the
Servicer for any unreimbursed Advances; third, to reimburse the related
Collection Account for any Nonrecoverable Advances (or portions thereof) that
were previously withdrawn by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.08(a)(iii)
that related to such Mortgage Loan; fourth, to accrued and unpaid interest (to
the extent no Advance has been made for such amount or any such Advance has
been reimbursed) on the Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, at the per
annum rate equal to the related Mortgage Rate reduced by the Servicing Fee
Rate to the Due Date occurring in the month in which such amounts are required
to be distributed; and fifth, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan.
Excess Proceeds, if any, from the liquidation of a Liquidation Mortgage Loan
will be retained by the related Servicer as additional servicing compensation
pursuant to Section 3.15.
(f) Calmco shall, at its option, enter into a special servicing agreement
with an unaffiliated Holder of the Class X Certificate, subject to each Rating
Agency's acknowledgment that the Ratings of the Certificates in effect
immediately prior to the entering into of such agreement would not be
qualified, downgraded or withdrawn and the Certificates would not be placed on
credit review status (except for possible upgrading) as a result of such
agreement. Any such agreement may contain provisions whereby such Holder may
(i) instruct Calmco to commence or delay foreclosure proceedings with respect
to delinquent Mortgage Loans serviced by it and will contain provisions for
the deposit of cash with Calmco by the holder that would be available for
distribution to Certificateholders if Liquidation Proceeds are less than they
otherwise may have been had Calmco acted in accordance with its normal
procedures, (ii) purchase delinquent Mortgage Loans serviced by Calmco from
the Trust Fund immediately prior to the commencement of foreclosure
proceedings at a price equal to the aggregate outstanding Principal Balance of
such Mortgage Loans plus accrued interest thereon at the applicable Mortgage
Rate through the last day of the month in which such Mortgage Loan is
purchased, and/or (iii) assume all of the servicing rights and obligations
with respect to delinquent Mortgage
66
Loans serviced by Calmco so long as such Holder (A) meets the requirements
for a Subservicer set forth in Section 3.02(a), and (B) will service such
Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement.
(g) Calmco, at its option, may (but is not obligated to) purchase from the
Trust Fund any Mortgage Loan which is 90 or more days delinquent. If it elects
to make any such purchase, such Holder shall purchase such Mortgage Loan with
its own funds at a price equal to the Repurchase Price.
SECTION 3.13 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.
Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the
Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner
customary for such purposes, the Servicer will immediately notify the
Custodian by delivering, or causing to be delivered a "Request for Release"
substantially in the form of Exhibit M. Upon receipt of such request, the
Custodian shall within four Business Days release the related Mortgage File to
the Servicer, and the Trustee shall within four Business Days of the
Servicer's direction execute and deliver to the Servicer the request for
reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or release or satisfaction of mortgage or
such instrument releasing the lien of the Mortgage in each case provided by
the Servicer, together with the Mortgage Note with written evidence of
cancellation thereon. The Servicer shall execute lien releases under Power of
Attorney from the Trustee. Expenses incurred in connection with any instrument
of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the related
Mortgagor. From time to time and as shall be appropriate for the servicing or
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including for such purpose, collection under
any policy of flood insurance, any fidelity bond or errors or omissions
policy, or for the purposes of effecting a partial release of any Mortgaged
Property from the lien of the Mortgage or the making of any corrections to the
Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or any of the other documents included in the
Mortgage File, the Trustee shall, within three Business Days of delivery to
the Trustee of a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit M signed by a
Servicing Officer, release or cause the Custodian to release the Mortgage File
to the related Servicer. Subject to the further limitations set forth below,
the Servicer shall cause the Mortgage File or documents so released to be
returned to the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, when the need
therefor by the Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan is
liquidated and the proceeds thereof are deposited in the related Collection
Account, in which case the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee a Request for
Release in the form of Exhibit M, signed by a Servicing Officer.
If a Servicer at any time seeks to initiate a foreclosure proceeding in
respect of any Mortgaged Property as authorized by this Agreement, the
Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee, for signature,
as appropriate, any court pleadings, requests for trustee's sale or other
documents necessary to effectuate such foreclosure or any legal action brought
to obtain judgment against the Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage
or to obtain a deficiency judgment or to enforce any other remedies or rights
provided by the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or otherwise available at law or
in equity.
67
SECTION 3.14 Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of a Servicer to
be Held for the Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Servicer shall
transmit to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee as required by this
Agreement all documents and instruments in respect of a Mortgage Loan coming
into the possession of the Servicer from time to time required to be delivered
to the Trustee pursuant to the terms hereof and shall account fully to the
Trustee for any funds received by the Servicer or which otherwise are
collected by the Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in
respect of any Mortgage Loan. All Mortgage Files and funds collected or held
by, or under the control of, the Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loans,
whether from the collection of principal and interest payments or from
Liquidation Proceeds, including but not limited to, any funds on deposit in a
Collection Account, shall be held by the Servicer for and on behalf of the
Trustee and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the
Trustee, subject to the applicable provisions of this Agreement. The Servicer
also agrees that it shall not create, incur or subject any Mortgage File or
any funds that are deposited in the related Collection Account, Certificate
Account or any related Escrow Account, or any funds that otherwise are or may
become due or payable to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, to any claim, lien, security interest, judgment, levy,
writ of attachment or other encumbrance, or assert by legal action or
otherwise any claim or right of setoff against any Mortgage File or any funds
collected on, or in connection with, a Mortgage Loan, except, however, that
the Servicer shall be entitled to set off against and deduct from any such
funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to the Servicer under this
Agreement.
SECTION 3.15 Servicing Fee.
As compensation for its services hereunder, the Servicer shall be entitled
to withdraw from the applicable Collection Account in accordance with Section
3.09(a) or to retain from interest payments on the related Mortgage Loans the
amount of the Servicing Fee for each Mortgage Loan, less any amounts in
respect of its Servicing Fee payable by the Servicer pursuant to Section
3.06(c)(vii). In connection with the servicing of any Special Serviced
Mortgage Loan, Calmco shall receive the Servicing Fee for each such Mortgage
Loan as its compensation.
Additional servicing compensation in the form of Ancillary Income shall be
retained by the related Servicer. The Servicer shall be required to pay all
expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder
(including the payment of any expenses incurred in connection with any
Subservicing Agreement entered into pursuant to Section 3.02 and the payment
of any premiums for hazard insurance and any Primary Insurance Policy, and
maintenance of the other forms of insurance coverage required by this
Agreement other than the GEMICO Policy) and shall not be entitled to
reimbursement thereof except as specifically provided for in this Agreement.
SECTION 3.16 Access to Certain Documentation.
The Servicer shall provide to the OTS and the FDIC and to comparable
regulatory authorities supervising Holders of Subordinate Certificates and the
examiners and supervisory agents of the OTS, the FDIC and such other
authorities, access to the documentation regarding
68
the related Mortgage Loans required by applicable regulations of the OTS
and the FDIC. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon
reasonable and prior written request and during normal business hours at the
offices designated by the Servicer. Nothing in this Section shall limit the
obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting
disclosure of information regarding the Mortgagors and the failure of the
Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section as a result of such
obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section.
SECTION 3.17 Annual Statement as to Compliance.
The Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor, the Rating Agencies and the
Trustee on or before 120 days after the end of the Servicer's fiscal year,
commencing in its 2001 fiscal year, an Officer's Certificate stating, as to
the signer thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during
the preceding calendar year and of the performance of the Servicer under this
Agreement has been made under such officer's supervision, and (ii) to the best
of such officer's knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled
all its obligations under this Agreement throughout such year, or, if there
has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each
such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof and the
action being taken by the Servicer to cure such default.
SECTION 3.18 Annual Independent Public Accountants' Servicing Statement;
Financial Statements.
On or before 120 days after the end of the Servicer's fiscal year,
commencing in its 2001 fiscal year, the Servicer, at its expense, shall cause
a nationally or regionally recognized firm of independent public accountants
(who may also render other services to the Servicer, the Seller or any
affiliate thereof) which is a member of the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants to furnish a statement to the Trustee and the Depositor to
the effect that with respect to the Servicer, such firm has examined certain
documents and records relating to the servicing of mortgage loans which the
Servicer is servicing, including the related Mortgage Loans, and that, on the
basis of such examination, conducted substantially in compliance with the
Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers or the Audit Guide for
HUD Approved Title II Approved Mortgagees and Loan Correspondent Programs,
nothing has come to their attention which would indicate that such servicing
has not been conducted in compliance with Accepted Servicing Practices, except
for (a) such exceptions as such firm shall believe to be immaterial, and (b)
such other exceptions as shall be set forth in such statement. In rendering
such statement, such firm may rely, as to matters relating to direct servicing
of mortgage loans by Subservicers, upon comparable statements for examinations
conducted substantially in compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation
Program for Mortgage Bankers or the Audit Guide for HUD Approved Title II
Approved Mortgagees and Loan Correspondent Programs (rendered within one year
of such statement) of independent public accountants with respect to the
related Subservicer. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Trustee
to any Certificateholder upon request at the related Servicer's expense,
provided such statement is delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee.
69
SECTION 3.19 Maintenance of Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions
Insurance.
The Servicer shall maintain with responsible companies, at its own
expense, a blanket Fidelity Bond and an Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy,
with broad coverage on all officers, employees or other persons acting in any
capacity requiring such persons to handle funds, money, documents or papers
relating to the related Mortgage Loans ("Servicer Employees"). Any such
Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall be in the form
of the Financial Institution Bond Form 22 - Fidelity Bond American
International Specialty Lines Insurance Policy Form ("5713 5/93") Mortgage
Banker Broker E&O and shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses,
including forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and omissions and
negligent acts of the Servicer Employees. Such Fidelity Bond and Errors and
Omissions Insurance Policy also shall protect and insure the Servicer against
losses in connection with the release or satisfaction of a related Mortgage
Loan without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured
thereby. No provision of this Section 3.19 requiring such Fidelity Bond and
Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall diminish or relieve a Servicer
from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. The minimum
coverage under any such bond and insurance policy shall be at least equal to
the corresponding amounts required by FNMA.
SECTION 3.20 Prepayment Premiums.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event
of a Principal Prepayment of a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer may not waive any
Prepayment Premium or portion thereof required by the terms of the related
Mortgage Note unless (i) the Servicer determines that such waiver would
maximize recovery of Liquidation Proceeds for such Mortgage Loan, taking into
account the value of such Prepayment Premium, or (ii) (A) the enforceability
thereof is limited (1) by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership, or
other similar law relating to creditors' rights generally or (2) due to
acceleration in connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment, or
(B) the enforceability is otherwise limited or prohibited by applicable law.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Servicer may waive a Prepayment Premium in
connection with a short sale or short payoff on a defaulted Mortgage Loan. If
the Servicer has waived all or a portion of a Prepayment Premium relating to a
Principal Prepayment, other than as provided above, the Servicer shall deliver
to the Trustee no later than the next succeeding Servicer Remittance Date, for
deposit into the Certificate Account the amount of such Prepayment Premium (or
such portion thereof as had been waived) for distribution in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement. If a Servicer has waived all or a portion of a
Prepayment Premium for any reason, it shall promptly notify the Trustee
thereof and shall include such information in any monthly reports it provides
the Trustee.
SECTION 3.21 Duties of the Loss Mitigation Advisor.
For and on behalf of the Depositor, the Loss Mitigation Advisor shall
provide reports and recommendations as to loss mitigation activities
concerning Mortgage Loans that are past due, as to which there has been
commencement of foreclosure, as to which there has been forbearance in
exercise of remedies which are in default, as to which any obligor is the
subject of bankruptcy, receivership, or an arrangement of creditors, or which
have become REO Properties. Such reports and recommendations will be based
upon information provided pursuant to Loss
70
Mitigation Advisory Agreement. The Loss Mitigation Advisor shall look
solely to the Servicer for all information and data (including loss and
delinquency information and data) and loan level information and data relating
to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans.
71
ARTICLE IV
DISTRIBUTIONS AND
ADVANCES BY THE SERVICER
SECTION 4.01 Advances by the Servicer.
The Servicer shall deposit in the related Collection Account at the time
described below an amount equal to (i) with respect to the Mortgage Loans
other than the Simple Interest Mortgage Loans, all Scheduled Payments (with
interest at the Mortgage Rate less the Servicing Fee Rate) which were due on
the related Mortgage Loans during the applicable Due Period and (ii) with
respect to the Simple Interest Mortgage Loans, 30 day's interest on each such
Mortgage Loan, less the Servicing Fee, which were delinquent at the close of
business on the immediately preceding Determination Date; provided however,
that with respect to any Balloon Loan that is delinquent on its maturity date,
the related Servicer will not be required to advance the related balloon
payment but will be required to continue to make advances in accordance with
this Section 4.01 with respect to such Balloon Loan in an amount equal to an
assumed scheduled payment that would otherwise be due based on the original
amortization schedule for that Mortgage Loan (with interest at the Mortgage
Rate less the Servicing Fee Rate). The Servicer's obligation to make such
Advances as to any related Mortgage Loan will continue through the last
Scheduled Payment due prior to the payment in full of such Mortgage Loan, or
the related Mortgaged Property or related REO Property has been liquidated or
until the purchase or repurchase thereof (or substitution therefor) from the
Trust Fund pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
To the extent required by Accepted Servicing Practices, the Servicer shall
be obligated to make Advances with respect to those Mortgage Loans serviced by
it in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided however, that
such obligation with respect to any related Mortgage Loan shall cease if the
Servicer determines, in its sole discretion, that Advances with respect to
such Mortgage Loan are Nonrecoverable Advances. In the event that the Servicer
determines that any such advances are Nonrecoverable Advances, the Servicer
shall provide the Trustee with a certificate signed by a Servicing Officer
evidencing such determination.
If an Advance is required to be made hereunder, the Servicer shall on the
applicable Servicer Remittance Date immediately following the Determination
Date either (i) deposit in the related Collection Account from its own funds
an amount equal to such Advance, (ii) cause to be made an appropriate entry in
the records of such Collection Account that funds in such account being held
for future distribution or withdrawal have been, as permitted by this Section
4.01, used by the Servicer to make such Advance or (iii) make Advances in the
form of any combination of clauses (i) and (ii) aggregating the amount of such
Advance. Any such funds being held in a Collection Account for future
distribution and so used shall be replaced by the Servicer from its own funds
by deposit in such Collection Account on or before any future Distribution
Date in which such funds would be due.

serviced by the Servicer no later than the Servicer Remittance Date necessary
to enable the Trustee to perform its distribution, accounting and reporting
requirements hereunder.
SECTION 4.06 Basis Risk Reserve Fund.
(a) On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain in its
name, in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Certificates, the Basis
Risk Reserve Fund. The Basis Risk Reserve Fund 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 held by the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement.
(b) On the Closing Date, $5,000 will be deposited by the Depositor into
the Basis Risk Reserve Fund. On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall
transfer from the Certificate Account to the Basis Risk Reserve Fund pursuant
to Section 4.02(d)J. the Required Basis Risk Reserve Fund Deposit. Amounts on
deposit in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund can be withdrawn by the Trustee in
connection with any Distribution Date to fund the amounts required to be
distributed to holders of the Offered Certificates pursuant to Sections
4.02(d) F. through I. to the extent Monthly Excess Cashflow on such date is
insufficient to make such payments. On any Distribution Date, any amounts on
deposit in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund in excess of the Required Basis Risk
Reserve Fund Amount shall be distributed to the Class X Certificateholder
pursuant to Section 4.02(d)K.
(c) Funds in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund may be invested in Eligible
Investments by the Trustee at the direction of the holders of the Class X
Certificates. Any net investment earnings on such amounts shall be payable to
the holders of the Class X Certificates. The Class X Certificates shall
evidence ownership of the Basis Risk Reserve Fund for federal tax purposes and
the Holders thereof shall direct the Trustee in writing as to the investment
of amounts therein. In the absence of such written direction, all funds in the
Basis Risk Reserve Fund shall remain uninvested. The Trustee shall have no
liability for losses on investments in Eligible Investments made pursuant to
this Section 4.06(c) (other than as obligor on any such investments). Upon
termination of the Trust Fund, any amounts remaining in the Basis Risk Reserve
Fund shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class X Certificate in the
same manner as if distributed pursuant to Section 4.02(d)K. hereof.
78
(d) On the Distribution Date immediately after the Distribution Date on
which the aggregate Class Principal Balance of the LIBOR Certificates equals
zero, any amounts on deposit in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund not payable on the
LIBOR Certificates shall be deposited into the Certificate Account and
distributed to the Holders of the Class X Certificates in the same manner as
if distributed pursuant to Section 4.02(d)K. hereof.
SECTION 4.07 Policy Matters.
(a) As soon as possible, and in no event later than 11:00 a.m., New York
time, on the third Business Day immediately preceding each Distribution Date,
the Trustee shall determine the amount of funds available for such
Distribution Date minus the amount of any FSA Premium, any GEMICO Premium and
any Trustee Fee to be paid on such Distribution Date.
If for any Distribution Date the Trustee determines that the funds
available for distribution to the Holders of the Class A-2 Certificates
pursuant to Section 4.02 will be insufficient to pay the Guaranteed
Distribution, the Trustee shall complete a notice in the form set forth as
Exhibit A to the FSA Policy (the "Notice") and shall submit such Notice to the
Fiscal Agent no later than 12:00 noon, New York time, on the third Business
Day preceding such Distribution Date. The Notice shall constitute a claim for
an Insured Payment pursuant to the FSA Policy. Upon receipt of the Insured
Payment, at or prior to the latest time payments of the Insured Payment are to
be made by the FSA pursuant to the FSA Policy, on behalf of the Holders of the
Class A-2 Certificates, the Trustee shall deposit such Insured Payments in the
Distribution Account and shall distribute such Insured Payments only in
accordance with Section 4.02, if applicable.
The Trustee shall receive as attorney-in-fact of each Holder of a Class
A-2 Certificate, any Insured Payment from FSA and disburse the same to each
Holder of a Class A-2 Certificate in accordance with the provisions of Article
IV. Insured Payments disbursed by the Trustee from proceeds of the FSA Policy
shall not be considered payment by the Trust nor shall such payments discharge
the obligation of the Trust with respect to such Class A-2 Certificate, and
FSA shall become the owner of such unpaid amounts due from the Trust in
respect of such Insured Payments as the deemed assignee of such Holder and
shall be entitled to receive the FSA Reimbursement Amount pursuant to Section
4.02. The Trustee hereby agrees on behalf of each Holder of a Class A-2
Certificate for the benefit of FSA that it and they recognize that to the
extent that FSA makes Insured Payments, either directly or indirectly (as by
paying through the Trustee), to the Class A-2 Certificateholders, FSA will be
entitled to receive the FSA Reimbursement Amount pursuant to Section 4.02.
It is understood and agreed that the intention of the parties is that FSA
shall not be entitled to reimbursement on any Distribution Date for amounts
previously paid by it unless on such Distribution Date the Holders of the
Class A-2 Certificates shall also have received the full amount of the
Guaranteed Distributions for such Distribution Date.
(b) The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of the FSA Policy with
respect to claims upon the FSA Policy.
79
(c) At the time of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall establish a separate special purpose trust account for the
benefit of Holders of the Class A-2 Certificates referred to herein as the
"Class A-2 Policy Payment Account" and over which the Trustee shall have
exclusive control and sole right of withdrawal. The Trustee shall deposit any
Insured Payment made under the FSA Policy in the Class A-2 Policy Payment
Account and thereafter into the Distribution Account for distribution of such
amount only for purposes of payment to Holders of the Class A-2 Certificates
of Guaranteed Distributions for the Class A-2 Certificates for which a claim
was made and such amount may not be applied to satisfy any cost, expenses or
liabilities of the Trustee or the Trust. Insured Payments made under the FSA
Policy shall be disbursed by the Trustee to Holders of the Class A-2
Certificates in the same manner as distributions on the Holders of the Class
A-2 Certificates are made under Section 4.02. It shall not be necessary for
such distributions to be made by checks or wire transfers separate from the
check or wire transfer used to pay Guaranteed Distributions with other funds
available to make such distributions. However, the amount of any Insured
Payments made on the Class A-2 Certificates to be paid from funds transferred
from the Class A-2 Policy Payment Account shall be noted in the Certificate
Register and in the statements to be furnished to Holders of the Certificates
pursuant to Section 4.04 hereof. Funds held in the Class A-2 Policy Payment
Account shall not be invested by the Trustee.
(d) On any Distribution Date with respect to which a claim has been made
under the FSA Policy, the amount of any Insured Payment received by the
Trustee as a result of any claim under the FSA Policy and which is required to
make distributions on the Class A-2 Certificates equal to Guaranteed
Distributions on the Class A-2 Certificates on such Distribution Date, shall
be withdrawn from the Class A-2 Policy Payment Account, deposited into the
Distribution Account and applied directly by the Trustee, together with all
other funds to be withdrawn from the Distribution Account, to the payment in
full of Guaranteed Distributions on the Class A-2 Certificates. Any funds
remaining in the Class A-2 Policy Payment Account on the first Business Day
following a Distribution Date shall be remitted in immediately available funds
to FSA, pursuant to the instructions of FSA, by the end of such Business Day.
FSA shall have the right to inspect such records at reasonable times during
normal business hours upon reasonable prior written notice to the Trustee.
(e) The Trustee shall promptly notify FSA of any proceeding or the
institution of any action, of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has
actual knowledge, seeking the avoidance as a preferential transfer under the
Bankruptcy Code (a "Preference Claim") of any distribution made with respect
to the Class A-2 Certificates. Each Certificateholder of Class A-2
Certificates, by its purchase of Class A-2 Certificates, the Seller, the
Servicer and the Trustee hereby agree that FSA (so long as there is no
continuing default by FSA under its obligations under the FSA Policy) may at
any time during the continuation of any proceeding relating to a Preference
Claim direct all matters relating to such Preference Claim, including, without
limitation, (i) the direction of any appeal of any order relating to such
Preference Claim and (ii) the posting of any surety, supersedeas or
performance bond pending any such appeal.
(f) The Trustee shall keep a complete and accurate record of the amount of
interest and principal paid in respect of any Class A-2 Certificates from
moneys received under the FSA Policy. FSA shall have the right to inspect such
records at reasonable times during normal business hours upon one Business
Day's prior notice to the Trustee.
80
(g) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any payment with
respect to principal of or interest on any of the Class A-2 Certificates which
is made with moneys received pursuant to the terms of the FSA Policy shall not
be considered payment of such Class A-2 Certificates from the Trust Fund and
shall not result in the payment of or the provision for the payment of the
principal of or interest on such Certificates within the meaning of Section
4.02. The Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer and the Trustee acknowledge, and
each Holder by its acceptance of a Class A-2 Certificate agrees, that without
the need for any further action on the part of FSA, the Depositor, the Seller,
the Servicer or the Trustee (a) to the extent FSA makes payments, directly or
indirectly, on account of principal of or interest on the Class A-2
Certificates to the Holders of such Certificates, FSA will be fully subrogated
to the rights of such Holders to receive such principal and interest from the
Trust Fund and (b) FSA shall be paid such principal and interest but only from
the sources and in the manner provided herein for the payment of such
principal and interest.
(h) The Trustee and the Servicer shall cooperate in all respects with any
reasonable request by FSA for action to preserve or enforce FSA's rights or
interests under this Agreement without limiting the rights or affecting the
interests of the Holders as otherwise set forth herein.
(i) All notices, statements, reports, certificates or opinions required by
this Agreement to be sent to the Trustee, the Rating Agencies or the Class A-2
Certificateholders shall also be sent at such time to FSA at Financial
Security Assurance, Inc., 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, Attn:
Transaction Oversight.
(j) FSA shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement, entitled to
enforce the provisions hereof as if a party hereto.
81
ARTICLE V
THE CERTIFICATES
SECTION 5.01 The Certificates.
The Certificates shall be substantially in the forms attached hereto as
exhibits. The Certificates shall be issuable in registered form, in the
minimum denominations, integral multiples in excess thereof (except that one
Certificate in each Class may be issued in a different amount which must be in
excess of the applicable minimum denomination) and aggregate denominations per
Class set forth in the Preliminary Statement.
Subject to Section 9.02 respecting the final distribution on the
Certificates, on each Distribution Date the Trustee shall make distributions
to each Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date either (x) by
wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of such holder at
a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if (i) such
Holder has so notified the Trustee at least five Business Days prior to the
related Record Date and (ii) such Holder shall hold (A) a Notional Amount
Certificate, (B) 100% of the Class Principal Balance of any Class of
Certificates or (C) Certificates of any Class with aggregate principal
Denominations of not less than $1,000,000 or (y) by check mailed by first
class mail to such Certificateholder at the address of such holder appearing
in the Certificate Register.
The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on
behalf of the Trustee by a Responsible Officer upon the written order of the
Depositor. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of
individuals who were, at the time such signatures were affixed, authorized to
sign on behalf of the Trustee shall bind the Trustee, notwithstanding that
such individuals or any of them have ceased to be so authorized prior to the
authentication and delivery of any 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 there
appears on such certificate a Certificate of Authentication in the form
provided herein, executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such
authentication upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Certificate has been duly executed and delivered
hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their countersignature.
On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall authenticate the Certificates to be
issued at the written direction of the Depositor, or any affiliate thereof.
The Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Trustee on a
continuous basis, an adequate inventory of Certificates to facilitate
transfers.
SECTION 5.02 Certificate Register; Registration of Transfer and Exchange
of Certificates.
(a) The Trustee shall maintain, or cause to be maintained in accordance
with the provisions of Section 5.06, a Certificate Register for the Trust Fund
in which, subject to the provisions of subsections (b) and (c) below and to
such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for
the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of
Certificates as herein provided. Upon surrender for registration of transfer
of any
82
Certificate, the Trustee shall execute and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of the same
Class and aggregate Percentage Interest.
At the option of a Certificateholder, Certificates may be exchanged for
other Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and
evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest upon surrender of the
Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency of the Trustee. Whenever
any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute,
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 be accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee duly
executed by the holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
No service charge to the Certificateholders shall be made for any
registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but 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 may be required.
All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange
shall be cancelled and subsequently disposed of by the Trustee in accordance
with the Trustee's customary procedures.
(b) No transfer of a Private Certificate shall be made unless such
transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the
registration requirements under said Act and such state securities laws.
Except in connection with any transfer of a Private Certificate by the
Depositor to any affiliate, in the event that a transfer is to be made in
reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act and such laws, in order to
assure compliance with the Securities Act and such laws, the Certificateholder
desiring to effect such transfer and such Certificateholder's prospective
transferee shall each certify to the Trustee in writing the facts surrounding
the transfer in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit J (the "Transferor
Certificate") and (i) deliver a letter in substantially the form of either
Exhibit K (the "Investment Letter") or Exhibit L (the "Rule 144A Letter") or
(ii) there shall be delivered to the Trustee at the expense of the transferor
an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption
from the Securities Act. The Depositor shall provide to any Holder of a
Private Certificate and any prospective transferee designated by any such
Holder, information regarding the related Certificates and the Mortgage Loans
and such other information as shall be necessary to satisfy the condition to
eligibility set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) for transfer of any such Certificate
without registration thereof under the Securities Act pursuant to the
registration exemption provided by Rule 144A. The Trustee shall cooperate with
the Depositor in providing the Rule 144A information referenced in the
preceding sentence, including providing to the Depositor such information
regarding the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans and other matters regarding the
Trust Fund as the Depositor shall reasonably request to meet its obligation
under the preceding sentence. Each Holder of a Private Certificate desiring to
effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee,
the Depositor, the Seller and the servicer 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.
83
No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate shall be made unless the
Trustee shall have received either (i) a representation letter from the
transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit M, in the case of a Private
Certificate, or Exhibit N, in the case of a Residual Certificate, to the
effect that (a) such transferee is not an employee benefit plan or arrangement
subject to Section 406 of ERISA or a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code,
nor a person acting on behalf of any such plan or arrangement not using the
assets of any such plan or arrangement to effect such transfer or (b) the
ERISA-Restricted Certificate has been the subject of an ERISA-Qualifying
Underwriting and is being purchased by an "insurance company general account"
(as defined in Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE")
95-60, and the acquisition and holding of the ERISA-Restricted Certificate
satisfy the requirements for exemptive relief under Sections I and III of PTCE
95-60; or (ii) in the case of any such ERISA-Restricted Certificate presented
for registration in the name of an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA, or
a plan or arrangement subject to Section 4975 of the Code (or comparable
provisions of any subsequent enactments), or a trustee of any such plan or any
other person acting on behalf of any such plan or arrangement or using such
plan's or arrangement's assets, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the
Trustee, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of either the
Trustee or the Trust Fund, addressed to the Trustee, to the effect that the
purchase or holding of such ERISA-Restricted Certificate will not result in a
prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code,
will not result in the assets of the Trust Fund being deemed to be "plan
assets" and subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and the
Code and will not subject the Trustee or the Servicer to any obligation in
addition to those expressly undertaken in this Agreement or to any liability.
The transferee of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is a Book-Entry
Certificate, by its acceptance of the Book-Entry Certificate, will be deemed
to make the representation in clauses (a) or (b) above. In the event that a
representation is violated, or any attempt to transfer to a plan or person
acting on behalf of a plan or using a plan's assets is attempted without the
delivery to the Trustee of the Opinion of Counsel described above, the
attempted transfer or acquisition shall be void and of no effect.
To the extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not limited
to, ERISA), the Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any
registration of transfer of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is in fact
not permitted by this Section 5.02(b) or for making any payments due on such
Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to
such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was
registered by the Trustee in accordance with the foregoing requirements.
(c) 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
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 Trustee of any change or impending change in its status as a
Permitted Transferee.
(ii) No Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate may be
registered on the Closing Date or thereafter transferred, and the Trustee
shall not register the Transfer of
84
any Residual Certificate unless, in addition to the certificates
required to be delivered to the Trustee under subparagraph (b) above, the
Trustee shall have been furnished with an affidavit (a "Transfer
Affidavit") of the initial owner or the proposed transferee in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit G.
(iii) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate shall agree (A) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit from
any other Person to whom such Person attempts to Transfer its Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate, (B) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit
from any Person for whom such Person is acting as nominee, trustee or
agent in connection with any Transfer of a Residual Certificate and (C)
not to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate or to
cause the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to
any other Person if it has actual knowledge that such Person is not a
Permitted Transferee.
(iv) Any attempted or purported Transfer of any Ownership Interest
in a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section
5.02(c) shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the
purported Transferee. If any purported transferee shall become a Holder
of a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section
5.02(c), then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored
to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration
of Transfer of such Residual Certificate. The Trustee shall be under no
liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of a Residual
Certificate that is in fact not permitted by Section 5.02(b) and this
Section 5.02(c) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the
Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder
under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the Transfer was
registered after receipt of the related Transfer Affidavit, Transferor
Certificate and either the Rule 144A Letter or the Investment Letter. The
Trustee shall be entitled but not obligated to recover from any Holder of
a Residual Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted Transferee at the
time it became a Holder or, at such subsequent time as it became other
than a Permitted Transferee, all payments made on such Residual
Certificate at and after either such time. Any such payments so recovered
by the Trustee shall be paid and delivered by the Trustee to the last
preceding Permitted Transferee of such Certificate.
(v) The Depositor shall use its best efforts to make available, upon
receipt of written request from the Trustee, all information necessary to
compute any tax imposed under Section 860E(e) of the Code as a result of
a Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any
Holder who is not a Permitted Transferee.
The restrictions on Transfers of a Residual Certificate set forth in this
Section 5.02(c) shall cease to apply (and the applicable portions of the
legend on a Residual Certificate may be deleted) with respect to Transfers
occurring after delivery to the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel, which
Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the
Seller or the Servicer, to the effect that the elimination of such
restrictions will not cause the REMIC hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC
at any time that the Certificates are outstanding or result in the imposition
of any tax on the Trust Fund, a Certificateholder or another Person. Each
Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate
hereby consents to any amendment of this Agreement which, based on an Opinion
of Counsel furnished
85
to the Trustee, is reasonably necessary (a) to ensure that the record
ownership of, or any beneficial interest in, a Residual Certificate is not
transferred, directly or indirectly, to a Person that is not a Permitted
Transferee and (b) to provide for a means to compel the Transfer of a Residual
Certificate which is held by a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee to a
Holder that is a Permitted Transferee.
(d) The preparation and delivery of all certificates and opinions referred
to above in this Section 5.02 in connection with transfer shall be at the
expense of the parties to such transfers.
(e) Except as provided 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 the Certificates may not be transferred by the
Trustee 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 Book-Entry Certificates; (iii) ownership and
transfers of registration of the Book-Entry 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 shall
deal with the Depository, Depository Participants and indirect participating
firms as representatives of the Certificate Owners of the Book-Entry
Certificates for purposes of exercising the rights of holders under this
Agreement, and requests and directions for and votes of such representatives
shall not be deemed to be inconsistent if they are made with respect to
different Certificate Owners; and (vi) the Trustee 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.
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 Owner. Each
Depository Participant shall only transfer Book-Entry Certificates of
Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as
agent in accordance with the Depository's normal procedures.
If (x) (i) the Depository or the Depositor advises the Trustee in writing
that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its
responsibilities as Depository, and (ii) the Trustee or the Depositor is
unable to locate a qualified successor, (y) the Depositor at its option
advises the Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry
system through the Depository or (z) after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, Certificate Owners representing at least 51% of the Certificate
Balance of the Book-Entry Certificates together advise the Trustee and the
Depository through the Depository Participants in writing that the
continuation of a book-entry system through the Depository is no longer in the
best interests of the Certificate Owners, the Trustee shall notify all
Certificate Owners, through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such
event and of the availability of definitive, fully-registered Certificates
(the "Definitive Certificates") to Certificate Owners requesting the same.
Upon surrender to the Trustee of the related Class of Certificates by the
Depository, accompanied by the instructions from the Depository for
registration, the Trustee shall issue the Definitive Certificates. None of the
Seller, the Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustee shall be liable for any
delay in delivery of such instruction and each may conclusively rely on, and
shall be protected in relying on, such
86
instructions. The Depositor shall provide the Trustee with an adequate
inventory of certificates to facilitate the issuance and transfer of
Definitive Certificates. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates all
references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the
Depository shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Trustee, to
the extent applicable with respect to such Definitive Certificates and the
Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as
Certificateholders hereunder; provided that the Trustee shall not by virtue of
its assumption of such obligations become liable to any party for any act or
failure to act of the Depository.
SECTION 5.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.
If (a) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee, or the
Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or
theft of any Certificate and (b) there is delivered to the Trustee such
security or indemnity as may be required by it to hold it harmless, then, in
the absence of notice to the Trustee that such Certificate has been acquired
by a bona fide purchaser, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver,
in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Certificate, a new Certificate of like Class, tenor and Percentage Interest.
In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section
5.03, the Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax
or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any
other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected
therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 5.03
shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership, 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 and the Trustee and any agent of the Servicer or the Trustee
may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner
of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in
this Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Servicer
or the Trustee or any agent of the Servicer or the Trustee shall be affected
by any notice to the contrary.
SECTION 5.05 Access to List of Certificateholders' Names and Addresses.
If three or more Certificateholders (a) request such information in
writing from the Trustee, (b) state that such Certificateholders desire to
communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under
this Agreement or under the Certificates, and (c) provide a copy of the
communication which such Certificateholders propose to transmit, or if the
Depositor or the Servicer shall request such information in writing from the
Trustee, then the Trustee shall, within ten Business Days after the receipt of
such request, provide the Depositor, the Servicer or such Certificateholders
at such recipients' expense the most recent list of the Certificateholders of
such Trust Fund held by the Trustee, if any. The Depositor and every
Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agree that the
Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such
information as to the list of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of
the source from which such information was derived.
87
SECTION 5.06 Maintenance of Office or Agency.
The Trustee will maintain or cause to be maintained at its expense an
office or offices or agency or agencies in St. Xxxx, Minnesota where
Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The
Trustee initially designates its Corporate Trust Office for such purposes. The
Trustee will give prompt written notice to the Certificateholders of any
change in such location of any such office or agency.
88
ARTICLE VI
THE DEPOSITOR, THE SELLER AND THE SERVICER
SECTION 6.01 Respective Liabilities of the Depositor, the Seller and the
Servicer.
The Depositor, the Seller and the Servicer shall each be liable in
accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically and
respectively imposed upon and undertaken by them herein.
SECTION 6.02 Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor, the Seller or a
Servicer.
The Depositor, the Seller and the servicer will each keep in full effect
its existence, rights and franchises as a corporation under the laws of the
United States or under the laws of one of the states thereof and will each
obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign corporation
in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to
protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement, or any of the
Mortgage Loans and to perform its respective duties under this Agreement.
Any Person into which the Depositor, the Seller or a Servicer may be
merged or consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger or
consolidation to which the Depositor, the Seller or a Servicer shall be a
party, or any person succeeding to the business of the Depositor, the Seller
or a Servicer, shall be the successor of the Depositor, the Seller or the
related Servicer, 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 or surviving Person with respect to a merger or
consolidation of a Servicer shall be an institution either (i) having a net
worth of not less than $10,000,000 or whose deposits are insured by the FDIC
through the BIF or the SAIF, and (ii) which is a FNMA-approved company in good
standing. In addition to the foregoing, there must be delivered to the Trustee
a letter from each of the Rating Agencies to the effect that such merger,
conversion or consolidation of a Servicer will not result in a qualification,
withdrawal or downgrade of the then current rating of any of the Certificates.

Servicer and Others.
(a) None of the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer nor any of the
directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor, the Seller or the
Servicer shall be under any liability to the Certificateholders for any action
taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant
to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this
provision shall not protect the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer or any
such Person against any breach of representations or warranties made by it
herein or protect the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer or any such Person
from any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reasons of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by
reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. The
Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer and any director, officer, employee or
agent of the Depositor, the Seller or a Servicer may rely in
89
good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and
submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. None of the
Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear
in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not incidental to its
respective duties hereunder and which in its opinion may involve it in any
expense or liability; provided, however, that any of the Depositor, the Seller
or the Servicer may in its discretion undertake any such action that it may
deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and
duties of the parties hereto and interests of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of
such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and
liabilities of the Trust Fund, and the Depositor, the Seller and the Servicer
shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Trust Fund.
(b) The Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee and hold it harmless against
any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable
and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs,
fees and expenses that the Trustee may sustain in any way related to the
failure of the Servicer to perform its duties and service the Mortgage Loans
in strict compliance with the terms of this Agreement. The Servicer
immediately shall notify the Trustee if a claim is made by a third party with
respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans, assume (with the prior
written consent of the Trustee) the defense of any such claim and pay all
expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, and promptly pay,
discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it
or the Trustee in respect of such claim. The Servicer shall follow any written
instructions received from the Trustee in connection with such claim. Except
as otherwise provided herein, the Trustee promptly shall reimburse the
Servicer for all amounts advanced by it pursuant to the preceding sentence
except when the claim is in any way related to the failure of the Servicer to
service and administer the Mortgage Loans in strict compliance with the teens
of this Agreement.
SECTION 6.04 Limitation on Resignation of a Servicer.
(a) Subject to Section 6.04(b) below, the Servicer shall not resign from
the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except (i) upon appointment of
a successor servicer (which may be with respect to all or a portion of the
Mortgage Loans), and receipt by the Trustee of a letter from each Rating
Agency that such a resignation and appointment will not result in a
downgrading of the rating of any of the Certificates related to the applicable
Mortgage Loans, or (ii) upon determination that its duties hereunder are no
longer permissible under applicable law. Any such determination under clause
(ii) permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Trustee. No such
resignation shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor servicer
shall have assumed the Servicer's responsibilities, duties, liabilities and
obligations hereunder.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, DLJ Mortgage Capital Inc. shall be
entitled to request that the Servicer resign and appoint a successor servicer;

liability to the Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Depositor for any
action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith
pursuant to this Agreement, in reliance upon information provided by the
Servicer under the Loss Mitigation Advisory Agreement or for errors in
judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Loss
Mitigation Advisor or any such person against liability that would otherwise
be imposed by reason of willful malfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in
its performance of its duties or by reason of reckless disregard for its
obligations and duties under this Agreement or the Loss Mitigation Advisory
Agreement. The Loss Mitigation Advisor and any director, officer, employee or
agent of the Loss Mitigation Advisor may rely in good faith on any document of
any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting

SECTION 7.01 Events of Default.
"Event of Default", wherever used herein, means any one of the following
events:
(i) any failure by the Servicer to make any deposit or payment
required pursuant to this Agreement (including but not limited to
Advances to the extent required under Section 4.01) which continues
unremedied for a period of three days after the date upon which written
notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have
been given to the Servicer by the Trustee or the Depositor, or to the
Servicer and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates having not less
than 25% of the Voting Rights evidenced by the Certificates; or
(ii) any failure by the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any
material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of

representations and warranties of the Servicer in Section 2.03(a) proves
to be untrue in any material respect, which failure or breach continues
unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which written notice
of such failure or breach, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have
been given to the Servicer by the Trustee or the Depositor, or to the
Servicer and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates having not less
than 25% of the Voting Rights evidenced by the Certificates; or;
(iii) failure by the Servicer to maintain, if required, its license
to do business in any jurisdiction where the related Mortgaged Property
is located; or
(iv) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority
having jurisdiction for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or
liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, including bankruptcy,
marshaling of assets and
91
liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or
liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer
and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or
unstayed for a period of 60 consecutive days; or
(v) the Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator
or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt,

debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of
or commence a voluntary case under, any applicable insolvency, bankruptcy
or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its
creditors, voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or
(vii) the Servicer ceases to meet the qualifications of a
FNMA-approved servicer.
Other than an Event of Default resulting from a failure of a Servicer to
make any required Advance, if an Event of Default shall occur and a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee has knowledge thereof, then, and in each
and every such case, so long as such Event of Default shall not have been
remedied, the Trustee may, or at the direction of the Holders of Certificates
evidencing not less than 51% of the Voting Rights evidenced by the
Certificates, the Trustee shall by notice in writing to the Servicer (with a
copy to each Rating Agency), terminate all of the rights and obligations of
the Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the related Mortgage Loans and
the proceeds thereof, other than its rights as a Certificateholder hereunder.
If an Event of Default results from the failure of the Servicer to make a
required Advance, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer and
the Depositor (with a copy to each Rating Agency), terminate all of the rights
and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the related
Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof, other than its rights as a
Certificateholder hereunder.
Upon receipt by the Servicer of such written notice of termination, all
authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect
to the related Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the
Trustee or its nominee, subject to Section 7.02. Upon written request from the
Trustee, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor
entity designated by the Trustee any and all documents and other instruments,
place in such successor's possession all related Mortgage Files, and do or
cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect
the purposes of such notice of termination, including but not limited to the
transfer and endorsement or assignment of the related Mortgage Loans and
related documents, at the Servicer's sole expense. The Servicer shall
cooperate with the Trustee and such successor in effecting the termination of
the Servicer's responsibilities and rights hereunder, including without
limitation, the transfer to such successor for administration by it of all
cash amounts which shall at the time be credited by the Servicer to a
Collection Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to
the related Mortgage Loans. The Trustee shall thereupon make any Advance
unless prohibited by applicable law. The Trustee is hereby authorized and
empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as
attorney-in-fact
92
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 related Mortgage Loans and related documents,
or otherwise.
SECTION 7.02 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of termination
pursuant to Section 7.01 of this Agreement, the Trustee shall, subject to and
to the extent provided herein, be the successor to the Servicer, but only in
its capacity as servicer under this Agreement, and not in any other, and the
transactions set forth herein and shall be subject to all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the
Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof and applicable law including the
obligation to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.01. As compensation
therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to all funds relating to the related
Mortgage Loans that the Servicer would have been entitled to charge to a
Collection Account, provided that the terminated Servicer shall nonetheless be
entitled to payment or reimbursement as provided in Section 3.08(a) to the
extent that such payment or reimbursement relates to the period prior to
termination of the Servicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Trustee has
become the successor to the Servicer in accordance with Section 7.01, the
Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is prohibited
by applicable law from making Advances pursuant to 4.01 hereof, or if it is
otherwise unable to so act, appoint, or petition a court of competent
jurisdiction to appoint, any established mortgage loan servicing institution
the appointment of which does not adversely affect the then current rating of
the Certificates by each Rating Agency, 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. Any successor to the Servicer shall
be an institution which is a FNMA and FHLMC approved seller/servicer in good
standing, which has a net worth of at least $10,000,000, which is willing to
service the related Mortgage Loans and which executes and delivers to the
Depositor and the Trustee an agreement accepting such delegation and
assignment, containing an assumption by such Person of the rights, powers,
duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Servicer (other
than liabilities of the Servicer under Section 6.03 hereof incurred prior to
termination of the Servicer under Section 7.01 hereunder), with like effect as
if originally named as a party to this Agreement; provided that each Rating
Agency acknowledges that its rating of the Certificates in effect immediately
prior to such assignment and delegation will not be qualified or reduced as a
result of such assignment and delegation. Pending appointment of a successor
to the Servicer hereunder, the Trustee, unless the Trustee is prohibited by
law from so acting, shall, subject to the limitations described herein, 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 related Mortgage Loans as it and such
successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be
in excess of the Servicing Fee. The Trustee and such successor shall take such
action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate
any such succession. Neither the Trustee nor any other successor servicer
shall be deemed to be in default by reason of any failure to make, or any
delay in making, any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof or any
failure to perform, or any delay in performing, any duties or responsibilities
hereunder, in either case caused by the failure of the Servicer to deliver or
provide, or any delay in delivering or providing, any cash, information,
documents or records to it.
93
Any successor to a Servicer shall give notice to the Mortgagors of such
change of servicer and shall, during the term of its service as servicer,
maintain in force the policy or policies that the Servicer is required to
maintain pursuant to this Agreement.
SECTION 7.03 Notification to Certificateholders.
(a) Upon any termination of or appointment of a successor to the Servicer,
the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders and
to each Rating Agency.
(b) Within 60 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the
Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Certificateholders notice of each such
Event of Default hereunder actually known to a Responsible Officer the
Trustee, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived.

organized and doing business under the laws of a state or the United States of
America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having
a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, subject to supervision
or examination by federal or state authority and with a credit
98
rating which would not cause either of the Rating Agencies to reduce their
respective then current Ratings of the Certificates (or having provided such
security from time to time as is sufficient to avoid such reduction), as
evidenced in writing by each Rating Agency. If such corporation or association
publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the
proposes of this Section 8.06 the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation or association shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. 1n
case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 8.06, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the
manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.07. The entity serving as
Trustee may have normal banking and trust relationships with the Depositor,
the Seller or the Servicer and their affiliates; provided, however, that such
entity cannot be an affiliate of the Seller, the Depositor or the Servicer
other than the Trustee in its role as successor to the Servicer.
SECTION 8.07 Resignation and Removal of the Trustee.
The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts
hereby created by giving written notice of resignation to the Depositor, the
Seller, the servicer and each Rating Agency not less than 60 days before the
date specified in such notice, when, subject to Section 8.08, such resignation
is to take effect, and acceptance by a successor trustee in accordance with
Section 8.08 meeting the qualifications set forth in Section 8.06. If the
Trustee gives notice of such resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint
a successor trustee. If no successor trustee meeting such qualifications shall
have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the
giving of such notice of resignation or removal (as provided below), the
resigning or removed Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction
for the appointment of a successor trustee.
If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with
the provisions of Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after written request
thereto by the Depositor, or if at any time the Trustee shall become incapable
of acting, or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the
Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall
take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the
purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, or a tax is imposed
with respect to the Trust Fund by any state in which the Trustee or the Trust
Fund is located and the imposition of such tax would be avoided by the
appointment of a different trustee, then the Depositor may remove the Trustee
and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in triplicate, one copy
of which shall be delivered to the Trustee, one copy to the Servicer and the
Seller and one copy to the successor trustee.
The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights
may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written
instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by such Holders or their
attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which shall be
delivered by the successor Trustee to the Depositor, the servicer and the
Seller, one complete set to the Trustee so removed and one complete set to the
successor so appointed. Notice of any removal of the Trustee shall be given to
each Rating Agency by the successor trustee.
99
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor
trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall become
effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided
in Section 8.08.
SECTION 8.08 Successor Trustee.
Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor and to its predecessor trustee, the
Servicer and the Seller an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder and
thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become
effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or
conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and
obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if
originally named as trustee herein. The Depositor, the Servicer, the Seller
and the predecessor trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do
such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly
vesting and confirming in the successor trustee all such rights, powers,
duties, and obligations.
No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section
8.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 and its appointment shall not
adversely affect the then current rating of the Certificates.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this
Section 8.08, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of such
trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates. If the Depositor fails to
mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the
successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed
at the expense of the Depositor.
SECTION 8.09 Merger or Consolidation of the Trustee.
Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated or any corporation resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any
corporation succeeding to the business of the Trustee, shall be the successor
of the Trustee hereunder, provided that such corporation shall be eligible
under the provisions of Section 8.06 without the execution or filing of any
paper or 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 Fund or property securing any Mortgage Note 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 Fund, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for
the benefit of the Certificateholders, such title to the Trust Fund or any
part thereof, whichever is applicable, and, subject to the other provisions of
100
this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the
Depositor and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the
Depositor shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the
receipt by it of a request to do so, or in the case an Event of Default 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.
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) To the extent necessary to effectuate the purposes of this
Section 8.10, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or
imposed upon the Trustee, except for the obligation of the Trustee in its
capacity as successor servicer under this Agreement to advance funds on
behalf of the Servicer, 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 set or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee
hereunder or as successor to a 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 applicable Trust Fund 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 such
appointment shall not, and shall not be deemed to, constitute any such
separate trustee or co-trustee as agent of the Trustee;
(iii) The Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or
remove any separate trustee or co-trustee; and
(iv) The Depositor, and not the Trustee, shall be liable for the
payment of reasonable compensation, reimbursement and indemnification to
any such 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 separate trustees and co-trustees, when and
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 Servicer and the Depositor.
101
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 Tax Matters.
It is intended that the assets with respect to which any REMIC election is
to be made, as set forth in the Preliminary Statement, shall constitute, and
that the conduct of matters relating to such assets shall be such as to
qualify such assets as, a "real estate mortgage investment conduit" as defined
in and in accordance with the REMIC Provisions. In furtherance of such
intention, the Trustee covenants and agrees that it shall act as agent (and
the Trustee is hereby appointed to act as agent) on behalf of both REMICs and
that in such capacity it shall: (a) prepare, sign and file, or cause to be
prepared and filed, in a timely manner, a U.S. Real Estate Mortgage Investment
Conduit Income Tax Return (Form 1066 or any successor form adopted by the
Internal Revenue Service) and prepare and file or cause to be prepared and
filed with the Internal Revenue Service and applicable state or local tax
authorities income tax or information returns for each taxable year with
respect to each REMIC, containing such information and at the times and in the
manner as may be required by the Code or state or local tax laws, regulations,
or roles, and furnish or cause to be furnished to Certificateholders the
schedules, statements or information at such times and in such manner as may
be required thereby; (b) within thirty days of the Closing Date, furnish or
cause to be furnished to the Internal Revenue Service, on Forms 8811 or as
otherwise may be required by the Code, the name, title, address, and telephone
number of the person that the holders of the Certificates may contact for tax
information relating thereto, together with such additional information as may
be required by such form, and update such information at the time or times in
the manner required by the Code; (c) make or cause to be made elections that
such assets be treated as a REMIC on the federal tax return for its first
taxable year (and, if necessary, under applicable state law) and apply for an
employee identification number from the IRS via a Form SS-4 or any other
acceptable method for all tax entities; (d) prepare and forward, or cause to
be prepared and forwarded, to the Certificateholders and to the Internal
Revenue Service and, if necessary, state tax authorities, all information
returns and reports as and when required to be provided to them in accordance
with the REMIC Provisions, including without limitation, the calculation of
any original issue discount using the Prepayment Assumption; (e) provide
information necessary for the computation of tax imposed on the transfer of a
Residual Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, or an
agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) of a Non-Permitted
Transferee, or a pass-through entity in which a Non-Permitted Transferee is
the record holder of an interest (the reasonable cost of computing and
furnishing such information may be charged to the Person liable for such tax);
(f) to the extent that they are under its control, conduct matters relating to
such assets at all times that any Certificates are outstanding so as to
maintain the status as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions; (g) not knowingly
or intentionally take any action or omit to take any action that would cause
the termination of the REMIC status of any REMIC hereunder; (h) pay, from the
sources specified in the last paragraph of this Section 8.11, the amount of
any federal or state tax, including prohibited transaction taxes as described
below, imposed on any REMIC hereunder prior to its termination when and as the
same shall be due and
102
payable (but such obligation shall not prevent the Trustee or any other
appropriate Person from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and
shall not prevent the Trustee from withholding payment of such tax, if
permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings); (i) ensure that
federal, state or local income tax or information returns shall be signed by
the Trustee or such other person as may be required to sign such returns by
the Code or state or local laws, regulations or rules; (j) maintain records
relating to the REMICs, including but not limited to the income, expenses,
assets and liabilities thereof and the fair market value and adjusted basis of
the assets determined on the accrual method or at such internals as may be
required by the Code, as may be necessary to prepare the foregoing returns,
schedules, statements or information; and (k) as and when necessary and
appropriate, represent any such REMIC in any administrative or judicial
proceedings relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing
authority, request an administrative adjustment as to any taxable year of any
REMIC, enter into settlement agreements with any governmental taxing agency,
extend any statute of limitations relating to any tax item of any such REMIC,
and otherwise act on behalf of the REMICs in relation to any tax matter or
controversy involving it.
In order to enable the Trustee to perform its duties as set forth herein,
the Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Trustee within
ten (10) days after the Closing Date all information or data that the Trustee
requests in writing and determines to be relevant for tax purposes to the
valuations and offering prices of the Certificates, including, without
limitation, the price, yield, prepayment assumption and projected cash flows
of the Certificates and the Mortgage Loans. Thereafter, the Depositor shall
provide to the Trustee promptly upon written request therefor any such
additional information or data that the Trustee may, from time to time,
reasonably request in order to enable the Trustee to perform its duties as set
forth herein. DLJMC hereby indemnifies the Trustee for any losses,
liabilities, damages, claims or expenses of the Trustee arising from any
errors or miscalculations of the Trustee that result from any failure of the
Depositor to provide, or to cause to be provided, accurate information or data
to the Trustee on a timely basis.
In the event that any tax is imposed on "prohibited transactions" of any
REMIC as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the "net income from
foreclosure property" of any REMIC as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code,
on any contribution to the REMICs after the Startup Day pursuant to Section
860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed, including, without
limitation, any minimum tax imposed upon the REMICs pursuant to Sections 23153
and 24874 of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, if not paid as
otherwise provided for herein, such tax shall be paid by (i) the Trustee, if
any such other tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Trustee of
any of its obligations under this Agreement, (ii) the Servicer or the Seller,
in the case of any such minimum tax, if such tax arises out of or results from
a breach by the Servicer or the Seller of any of their obligations under this
Agreement or (iii) the Seller, if any such tax arises out of or results from
the Seller's obligation to repurchase a related Mortgage Loan pursuant to
Section 2.02 or 2.03 or (iv) in all other cases, or in the event that the
Trustee, the Servicer or Seller fails to honor its obligations under the
preceding clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), any such tax will be paid with amounts
otherwise to be distributed to the Certificateholders, as provided in Section
3.11(b).
The Trustee shall treat the Basis Risk Reserve Fund as an outside reserve
fund within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-2(h) that is owned by
the Class X Certificateholder and
103
that is not an asset of the REMIC. The Trustee shall treat the rights of
the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-1, Class M-2, and Class B Certificateholders
to receive payments from the Basis Risk Reserve Fund as rights in an interest
rate cap contract written by the Class X Certificateholder in favor of the
Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-1, Class M-2, and Class B Certificateholders.
Thus, each Certificate other than the Class X and the Class AR Certificates
shall be treated as representing ownership of not only REMIC Regular
Interests, but also ownership of an interest in an interest rate cap contract.
For purposes of determining the issue price of the REMIC Regular interests,
the Trustee shall assume that the interest rate cap contract has a value of
$5,000.
The Trustee, the Servicer and the Holders of Certificates shall take any
action or cause the 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. Neither the
Trustee, the Master Servicer nor 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 and the Master 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.
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 Trustee 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.
The Trustee 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.
On or before June 15 of each calendar year beginning in 2002, the Servicer
shall deliver to the Trustee and each Rating Agency an Officers' Certificate
stating the Servicer's compliance with the provisions of this Section 9.01.
The Trustee will apply for an Employee Identification Number from the
Internal Revenue Service via a Form SS-4 or other acceptable method for all
tax entities.
SECTION 8.12 Periodic Filings.
The Trustee shall, on behalf of the Trust, cause to be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission any periodic reports required to be filed
under the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and
the rules and regulations of the Securities and
104
Exchange Commission thereunder. In connection with the preparation and
filing of such periodic reports, the Depositor and the Servicer shall, upon
the written request of the Trustee, timely provide to the Trustee all material
information reasonable available to them which is requested by the Trustee for
the purpose of being included in such reports. The Trustee shall have no
liability with respect to any failure to properly prepare or file such
periodic reports resulting from or relating to the Trustee's inability or
failure to obtain any information not resulting from its own negligence or
willful misconduct.
SECTION 8.13 Trust Obligations.
For all purposes herein, any and all rights, duties and obligations of the
Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall be the rights, duties and obligations of
the Trust itself.
SECTION 8.14 Determination of Certificate Index.
On each Interest Determination Date, the Trustee shall determine the
Certificate Index for the Accrual Period and inform the Servicer of such rate.
SECTION 8.15 Indemnification with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of
REMIC Status.
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 a Servicer of its duties and obligations
set forth herein, the Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee 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
negligence of the Trustee, the Depositor or the Holder of such Class AR
Certificate, as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from
misinformation provided by the Holder of such Class AR 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 Class AR 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).
105
ARTICLE IX
TERMINATION
SECTION 9.01 Termination upon Liquidation or Purchase of the Mortgage
Loans.
(a) Subject to Section 9.03, the obligations and responsibilities of the
Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer and the Trustee created hereunder with
respect to the Trust Fund shall terminate upon the earlier of (a) the purchase
by Calmco of all Mortgage Loans (and REO Properties) remaining at the price
equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage
Loan (other than in respect of REO Property) plus one month's accrued interest
thereon at the applicable Mortgage Rate and (ii) with respect to any REO
Property, the lesser of (x) the appraised value of any REO Property as
determined by the higher of two appraisals completed by two independent
appraisers selected by the Depositor at the expense of the Depositor and (y)
the Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan related to any REO
Property, in each case and related to any REO Property, in each case plus
accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the applicable Mortgage Rate and (iii)
any unreimbursed Advances, Servicing Advances and Servicing Fees payable to
the other Servicer which shall be entitled to withdraw such amounts from the
applicable Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.09(a) and (b) the later of
(i) the maturity or other liquidation (or any Advance with respect thereto) of
the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and the disposition of all
REO Property and (ii) the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts
required to be distributed to them pursuant to this Agreement. In no event
shall the trusts created hereby continue beyond the expiration of 21 years
from the death of the 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 right to repurchase all Mortgage Loans and REO Properties
pursuant to clause (a) above shall be conditioned upon the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans, at the time of any such repurchase,
aggregating less than ten percent of the Aggregate Collateral Balance as of
the Cut-off Date.
(b) If Calmco elects to terminate the Trust Fund pursuant to Section
9.01(a) above, the other Servicer shall retain all servicing rights with
respect to the Mortgage Loans serviced by it. Calmco and the Servicer shall
enter into a servicing agreement mutually acceptable to such parties, pursuant
to which the Servicer shall continue to service and administer such Mortgage
Loans in accordance with the customary and usual standards of practice of
prudent mortgage loan servicers which service such mortgage loans.
SECTION 9.02 Final Distribution on the Certificates.
If on any Determination Date, the Trustee determines that there are no
Outstanding Mortgage Loans and no other funds or assets in the Trust Fund
other than the funds in the Collection Accounts and Certificate Account, the
Trustee shall promptly send a final distribution notice to each
Certificateholder. If Calmco elects to terminate the Trust Fund pursuant to
Section 9.01, at least 20 days prior to the date notice is to be mailed to the
affected Certificateholders, Calmco shall notify the Servicer and the Trustee
of the date it intends to terminate the Trust Fund and of the applicable
repurchase price of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.
106
Notice of any termination of the Trust Fund, specifying the Distribution
Date on which Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates for payment
of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the
Trustee by letter to 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. Any such notice shall specify (a) the Distribution Date
upon which final distribution on the Certificates will be made upon
presentation and surrender of Certificates at the office therein designated,
(b) the amount of such final distribution, (c) the location of the office or
agency at which such presentation and surrender must be made, and (d) 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 therein specified. The Trustee shall give such
notice to each Rating Agency at the time such notice is given to
Certificateholders.
Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Trustee shall
cause to be distributed to the Certificateholders of each Class, in each case
on the final Distribution Date in proportion to their respective Percentage
Interests, with respect to Certificateholders of the same Class, an amount
equal to (i) as to each Class of Offered Certificates, (A) first to the Senior
Certificates, and then to the Class M-1, Class M-2 and Class B Certificates
sequentially, in that order, an amount equal to the Class Principal Balance
thereof plus Current Interest and any Carryforward Interest and (B) to the
extent of available funds (other than funds described in clause (ii) below)
after the distributions in clause (i)(A) above, the amounts referred to and in
the order described in Section 4.02(d)B-H, (ii) as to the Class P
Certificates, the aggregate amount, if any, of all Prepayment Premiums which
remains on deposit in the Collection Accounts and the Certificate Account and
(iii) as to the Class X Certificates, the amount, if any, which remain on
deposit in the Collection Accounts (other than the amounts retained to meet
claims) after application pursuant to clause (i) and clause (ii) above.
In the event that any affected Certificateholders shall not surrender
Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in
the above mentioned written notice, the Trustee 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 six months after the second notice all the applicable Certificates
shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take
reasonable and appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take reasonable
and appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning
surrender of their Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the
funds and other assets which remain a part of the Trust Fund. If within one
year after the second notice all Certificates shall not have been surrendered
for cancellation, the Class AR Certificateholders shall be entitled to all
unclaimed funds and other assets of the Trust Fund which remain subject hereto
and the Trustee shall be discharged from all further liability with respect to
the Certificates and this Agreement.
SECTION 9.03 Additional Termination Requirements.
(a) In the event Calmco exercises its purchase option with respect to the
Mortgage Loans as provided in Section 9.01, at such time as the Mortgage Loans
are so purchased, the Trust Fund shall be terminated in accordance with the
following additional requirements, unless the Trustee has been provided with
an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of Calmco, to the effect that the
107
failure to comply with the requirements of this Section 9.03 will not (i)
result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" on any REMIC as
defined in Section 860E of the Code, or (ii) cause any REMIC to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding:
(1) Within 90 days prior to the final Distribution Date set
forth in the notice given by the Trustee under Section 9.02, the
Depositor shall prepare and the Trustee shall adopt a plan of
complete liquidation within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(4) of the
Code which, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion
shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund), meets the
requirements of a qualified liquidation;
(2) Within 90 days after the time of adoption of such a plan of
complete liquidation, the Trustee shall sell all of the assets of
the Trust Fund to the Depositor for cash in accordance with Section
9.01; and
(3) On the date specified for final payment of the
Certificates, the Trustee shall, after payment of any unreimbursed
Advances, Servicing Advances, Servicing Fees or other fee
compensation payable to the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement,
make final distributions of principal and interest on the
Certificates in accordance with Section 4.02 and distribute or
credit, or cause to be distributed or credited, to the Holders of
the Residual Certificates all cash on hand after such final payment
(other than the cash retained to meet claims), and the Trust Fund
(and each REMIC) shall terminate at that time.
(b) The Trustee as agent for each REMIC hereby agrees to adopt and sign
such a plan of complete liquidation upon the written request of the Depositor,
and the receipt of the Opinion of Counsel referred to in Section 9.03(a)(1)
and to take such other action in connection therewith as may be reasonably
requested by the Depositor.
(c) By their acceptance of the Certificates, the Holders thereof hereby
authorize the Depositor to prepare and the Trustee to adopt and sign a plan of
complete liquidation.
108
ARTICLE X
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
SECTION 10.01 Amendment.
This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the
Servicer, the Seller and the Trustee without the consent of any of the
Certificateholders (i) to cure any ambiguity or mistake, (ii) to correct any
defective provision herein or to supplement any provision herein which may be
inconsistent with any other provision herein, (iii) to add to the duties of
the Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer, (iv) in connection with the
appointment of a successor Servicer, to modify, eliminate or add to any of the
servicing provisions contained in this Agreement, providing the Rating
Agencies confirm the then current rating of the Certificates giving effect to
such amendment, (v) to add any other provisions with respect to matters or
questions arising hereunder or (vi) to modify, alter, amend, add to or rescind
any of the terms or provisions contained in this Agreement; and, provided,
further, that any action pursuant to clauses (v) or (vi) above shall not, as
evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an
expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund, but shall be at the expense of the
party proposing such amendment), adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of any Certificateholder; provided, however, that no such Opinion of
Counsel shall be required if the Person requesting the amendment obtains a
letter from each Rating Agency stating that the amendment would not result in
the downgrading or withdrawal of the respective ratings then assigned to the
Certificates (without regard to the FSA Policy). The Trustee, the Depositor,
the Seller and the Servicer also may at any time and from time to time amend
this Agreement without the consent of the Certificateholders to modify,
eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary
or helpful to (i) maintain the qualification of any REMIC as a REMIC under the
Code, (ii) avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any tax on any
REMIC pursuant to the Code that would be a claim at any time prior to the
final redemption of the Certificates or (iii) comply with any other
requirements of the Code; provided, that the Trustee has been provided an
Opinion of Counsel, which opinion shall be an expense of the party requesting
such opinion but in any case shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the
Trust Fund, to the effect that such action is necessary or helpful to, as
applicable, (i) maintain such qualification, (ii) avoid or minimize the risk
of the imposition of such a tax or (iii) comply with any such requirements of
the Code.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, FSA's written consent shall be required for
any amendment that adversely affects in any respect the rights and interest of
FSA hereunder.
This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the
Servicer, the Seller and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of each
Class of Certificates affected thereby evidencing 66% of the aggregate Class
Principal Balance of such Class for the purpose of adding any provisions to or
changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement
or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates;
provided, however, that no such amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner the
amount of, or delay the timing of, payments required to be distributed on any
Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, or (ii)
reduce the aforesaid percentages of Certificates the Holders of
109
which are required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent
of the Holders of all such Certificates then outstanding.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the Trustee
shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall have
first received an Opinion of Counsel, which opinion shall not be an expense of
the Trustee or the Trust Fund, but shall be at the expense of the party
requesting such amendment, to the effect that such amendment will not cause
the imposition of any tax on any REMIC or the Certificateholders or cause any
REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are
outstanding.
Promptly after the execution of any amendment to this Agreement requiring
the consent of Certificateholders, the Trustee shall furnish written
notification of the substance or a copy of such amendment to each
Certificateholder and each Rating Agency.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this
Section 10.01 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but 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 Trustee may prescribe.
Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Trustee to enter into an
amendment without receiving an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion shall not be
an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund), satisfactory to the Trustee that
(i) such amendment is permitted and is not prohibited by this Agreement and
that all requirements for amending this Agreement have been complied with; and
(ii) either (A) the amendment does not adversely affect in any material
respect the interests of any Certificateholder or (B) the conclusion set forth
in the immediately preceding clause (A) is not required to be reached pursuant
to this Section 10.01. The Trustee shall have no obligation to consent to any
amendment that it reasonably believes will materially and adversely affect its
rights or immunities under this Agreement.
SECTION 10.02 Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.
This Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices
for real property records in all the counties or other comparable
jurisdictions in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages
are situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or
elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by the Depositor at its expense,
but only upon direction by the Trustee (acting at the direction of holders of
Certificates evidencing a majority of the aggregate Class Principal Balance)
accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel (at the Depositor's expense) to the
effect that such recordation materially and beneficially affects the interests
of the Certificateholders.
For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement as
herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed
simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall
be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one
and the same instrument.
110
SECTION 10.03 Governing Law.
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE
SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO
BE PERFORMED IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND THE CERTIFICATEHOLDERS SHALL BE DETERMINED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.
SECTION 10.04 Intention of Parties.
It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the
Trust Fund, including the Mortgage Loans, by the Depositor to the Trustee be,
and be construed as, an absolute sale thereof. It is, further, not the
intention of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge thereof.
However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, such
assets are held to be the property of the Depositor, or if for any other
reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in
either such assets, then (i) this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security
agreement within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of
New York and (ii) the conveyance provided for in this Agreement shall be
deemed to be an assignment and a grant by the Depositor to the Trustee, for
the benefit of the Certificateholders, of a security interest in all of the
assets transferred, whether now owned or hereafter acquired.
The Depositor for the benefit of the Certificateholders shall, to the
extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary
to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in
the Trust Fund, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected
security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be
maintained as such throughout the term of the Agreement. The Depositor shall
arrange for filing any Uniform Commercial Code continuation statements in

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as CSFB ABS Trust Series 2001-HE12, CSFB Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, Series 2001-HE12, of the Series specified on the face hereof
(herein collectively called the "Certificates"), and representing a beneficial
ownership interest in the Trust Fund 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 Certificate Account
for payment hereunder and that the Trustee 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 Trustee.
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, the
Business Day immediately following (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. The Record Date
applicable to each Distribution Date is (1) with respect to all Definitive
Certificates, the last day of the calendar month preceding the month in which
such Distribution Date occurs and (2) with respect to all Certificates held in
Book-Entry Form only, the Business Day immediately preceding the Distribution
Date.
Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the account of the Holder hereof at a bank or
other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Certificateholder
shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days
prior to the related Record Date and such Certificateholder shall satisfy the
conditions to receive such form of payment set forth in the Agreement, or, if
not, by check mailed by first class mail to the address of such
Certificateholder appearing in the Certificate Register. The final
distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon
presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office or
such other location 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
Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any
time by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Seller and the Trustee with the
consent of the Holders of Certificates affected by such amendment evidencing
the requisite Percentage Interest, as provided 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 hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu
hereof whether or not notation of 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 Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for
registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office or the office or agency
maintained by the Trustee in St. Xxxx, Minnesota, accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee 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 Fund 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 Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Depositor, the Servicer, the Seller, and the Trustee and any
agent of the Depositor 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 Servicer, the Seller, the Depositor, the Trustee or any such agent shall
be affected by any notice to the contrary.
On any Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal
Balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than 10% of the Aggregate Loan Balance
as of the Cut-off Date and the amount on deposit in the Prefunding Account on
the Closing Date, Calmco will have the option to repurchase, in whole, from
the Trust Fund all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in
respect of the Mortgage Loans at a purchase price determined as provided in
the Agreement. In the event that no such optional termination occurs, the
obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement will terminate upon
the later of the maturity or other liquidation (or any advance with respect
thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund or the
disposition of all property in respect thereof and the distribution to
Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed pursuant to the
Agreement. In no event, however, will the trust created by the Agreement
continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor
of the descendants living at the date of the Agreement of a certain person
named in the Agreement.
Any term used herein that is defined in the Agreement shall have the
meaning assigned in the Agreement, and nothing herein shall be deemed
inconsistent with that meaning.

make this affidavit on behalf of the Transferee.
2._______The Transferee is, as of the date hereof, and will be, as of
the date of the Transfer, a Permitted Transferee. The Transferee is acquiring
its Ownership Interest in the Certificate either (i) for its own account or
(ii) as nominee, trustee or agent for another Person and has attached hereto
an affidavit from such Person in substantially the same form as this
affidavit. The Transferee has no knowledge that any such affidavit is false.
3._______The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that (i)
a tax will be imposed on Transfers of the Certificate to Persons that are not
Permitted Transferees; (ii) such tax will be imposed on the transferor, or, if
such Transfer is through an agent (which includes a broker, nominee or
middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, on the agent; and
(iii) the Person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability
for the tax if the subsequent Transferee furnished to such Person an affidavit
that such subsequent Transferee is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of
Transfer, such Person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is
false.
4._______The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that a
tax will be imposed on a "pass-through entity" holding the Certificate if at
any time during the taxable year of the pass-through entity a Person that is
not a Permitted Transferee is 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(c) of the Agreement (attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and incorporated herein
by reference) 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(c) 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 J 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 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 United States Person.
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 is not an employee benefit plan that is
subject to ERISA or a plan that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code, and
the Transferee is not acting on behalf of such a plan.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Transferee has caused this instrument to be
