Section 2.1. Designation and Terms of Notes.

Each Note shall be substantially in the form specified in Exhibit A of this Indenture and shall bear, upon its face, the designation for such Note so selected by the Issuer and set forth in this Indenture. Subject to the conditions contained herein and in the other Program Agreements, the aggregate Note Balance of Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is $300,000,000, except for Notes issued authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes pursuant to Sections 2.11 and 2.13 hereof. Such aggregate Note Balance shall be divided among six Classes having the respective Class designations, initial Note Balances, Note Rates and Final Stated Maturity Dates as follows:

Section 2.2. No Priority Among Notes.

Each Note of a particular Class shall rank pari passu with each other Note of such Class and be equally and ratably secured by the Collateral included in the Trust Estate. All Notes of a particular Class shall be substantially identical except as to denominations and as expressly permitted in this Indenture. The Holders of all Notes of a particular Class shall rank equally as to receipt of interest and principal, with no preference or priority being afforded to the Holder of any one Note of a particular Class over the Holder of any other Note of that particular Class.

Section 2.3. Execution and Authentication.

(a) An Authorized Officer shall sign the Notes for the Issuer by manual or facsimile signature. If an Authorized Officer whose signature is on a Note no longer holds that office at the time the Note is authenticated, the Note shall nevertheless be valid. The Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee an executed Note and an authentication order each time it requests a new Note to be issued. No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid for any purpose unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication

substantially in the form provided for herein, duly executed by the Indenture Trustee by the manual signature of an authorized signatory. Such signatures on such certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that a Note has been duly authenticated under this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee’s certificate of authentication shall be in substantially the following form:

This is one of the Class [A] [B] [C] [D] [E] [F] [G] Notes referred to in the within mentioned Indenture.


[ ],
		as Indenture Trustee
By:
		Authorized Signatory

(b) Each Note shall be dated and issued as of the date of its authentication by the Indenture Trustee.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Note shall have been authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Issuer, and the Issuer shall deliver such Note to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 2.16, together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 13.3 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Note has never been issued and sold by the Issuer, for all purposes of this Indenture such Note shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall not be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

Section 2.4. Form of Notes; Book-Entry Provisions.

(a) Each Class of Notes may be sold to qualified institutional buyers within the meaning of, and in reliance on, Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”) and shall be issued in the form of a Global Note substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (each, a “Rule 144A Global Note”) with such legends as may be applicable thereto, which shall be deposited on behalf of the subscribers for the Notes represented thereby with a custodian for DTC, and registered in the name of DTC or a nominee of DTC, duly executed by the Issuer and authenticated by the Indenture Trustee as provided in Section 2.6 for credit to the accounts of the subscribers at DTC. The aggregate initial principal amount of a Rule 144A Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the custodian for DTC, DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as hereinafter provided.

Prior to any sale or any transfer of a Note for a Rule 144A Global Note, such purchaser or Note Owner shall be deemed to have represented and agreed as follows:

(i) It is a qualified institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A and is acquiring the Notes for its own institutional account or for the account of a qualified institutional buyer;

(ii) It understands that the Notes purchased by it will be offered, and may be transferred, only in a transaction not involving any public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act and that, if in the future it decides to resell, pledge or otherwise transfer any Notes, such Notes may be resold, pledged or transferred only in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 2.8;

(iii) It understands that the Notes will bear a legend substantially as set forth in Section 2.9; and

(iv) It understands that it will be deemed to make the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.8(g).

In addition, such purchaser shall be responsible for providing additional information or certification, as shall be reasonably requested by the Issuer or any initial purchaser of such Notes, to support the truth and accuracy of the foregoing acknowledgments, representations and agreements, it being understood that such additional information is not intended to create additional restrictions on the transfer of the Notes.

Section 2.5. Note Registrar.

(a) The Issuer shall (i) maintain an office or agency where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange (“Note Registrar”). The Note Registrar shall keep a register of the Notes and of their transfer and exchange (the “Note Register”). The Issuer may appoint one or more co-registrars. The term “Note Registrar” includes any co-registrars. The Issuer may change any Note Registrar without prior notice to any Noteholder. The Issuer shall notify the Indenture Trustee in writing of the name and address of any agent not a party to Indenture. The Indenture Trustee is hereby initially appointed as the Note Registrar and agent for service of notices and demands in connection with the Notes. The entries in the Note Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Note Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Noteholder hereunder for all purposes of this Indenture. This shall be construed so that the Notes under this Indenture are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Section 5f.103-1(c) of the Treasury Regulations. The Note Registrar shall record the names and addresses of the Noteholders and the principal amounts and number of such Notes.

(b) The Issuer shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any agent not a party to this Indenture. Such agency agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such agent. The Issuer shall notify the Indenture Trustee in writing of the name and address of any such agent. If the Issuer fails to maintain a Note Registrar and a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge of such failure, or if the Issuer fails to give the foregoing written notice, the Indenture Trustee shall act as such, and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation in accordance with this Indenture, until the Issuer shall appoint a replacement Note Registrar.

Section 2.6. Noteholder List.

The Indenture Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders of the Notes. If the Indenture Trustee is not the Note Registrar, the Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee at least seven (7) Business Days before each Payment Date and at such other time as the Indenture Trustee may request in writing, a list in such form and as of such date as the Indenture Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders of the Notes.

Section 2.7. Restrictions on Transfers.

(a) Transfers of beneficial interests in any Note shall be limited to transfers to qualified institutional buyers each in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.

(b) No Note may be sold or transferred (including, without limitation, by pledge or hypothecation) unless (x) such sale or transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and is exempt under applicable state securities law and (y) such sale or transfer meets the restrictions set forth in clause (a) above. Any Noteholder or Note Owner desiring to effect a transfer of Notes or interests therein shall, and does hereby agree to indemnify the Issuer, the Administrator, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar 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. Any transfer of an interest in any Note to a Person that is not a Qualified Institutional Buyer, shall be null and void and shall not be given effect for any purpose hereunder, and the Indenture Trustee shall hold any funds conveyed by the intended transferee of such interest in trust for the transferor and shall promptly reconvey such funds to such Person in accordance with the written instructions thereof delivered to the Indenture Trustee.

(c) Neither a member of any “expanded group” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.385-1(c)(4)) that includes the Seller or a “controlled partnership” (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.385-1(c)(1)) of such expanded group shall acquire any Notes from the Trust, any Affiliate, or through the marketplace prior to obtaining an opinion of counsel stating that the acquisition or reacquisition of such Note will not cause the Master Repurchase Agreement to fail to be treated as Indebtedness for federal income tax purposes, or to cause the Trust, initially upon such acquisition or subsequent to the acquisition, to be classified as an association or publicly traded partnership treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes or otherwise cause the Trust not to be classified as a grantor trust. The preceding sentence shall not apply to (i) any U.S. corporate member of the same U.S. corporate affiliated group (as defined in Section 1504 of the Code) filing a consolidated federal income tax return that includes the Seller (the “Trust Consolidated Group”) or (ii) a partnership all of the partners of which are either such U.S. corporate members of the Trust Consolidated Group as described in clause (i) or partnerships all of the partners of which are such U.S. corporate members of the Trust Consolidated Group as described in clause (i). No member of any “expanded group” that includes the Seller (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.385-1(b)(3)) or “controlled partnership” of such expanded group (as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.385-1(c)(4)) shall transfer any Notes outside the expanded group prior to obtaining an opinion of counsel stating that the transfer of such Note will not cause the Trust to be classified as an association or publicly traded partnership treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes or otherwise cause the Trust not to be classified as a grantor trust.

Section 2.8. Transfer and Exchange.

(a) The transfer and exchange of Rule 144A Global Notes or beneficial interests therein shall be effected through the Clearing Agency, in accordance with this Indenture and the procedures of the Clearing Agency therefor, which shall include restrictions on transfer comparable to those set forth herein to the extent required by the Securities Act.

Beneficial interests in any Rule 144A Global Note may be transferred to Persons who take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the same Rule 144A Global Note in accordance with the transfer restrictions set forth in the legends referred to in Section 2.9. No written orders or instructions shall be required to be delivered to the Registrar to effect the transfers described in this Section 2.8. In connection with any transfer, each such transferor of such Rule 144A Global Note shall be deemed to have represented and agreed that (x) such Rule 144A Global Note is being transferred in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act to a transferee that the transferor reasonably believes is purchasing such Notes for its own account or an account with respect to which the transferee exercises sole investment discretion and each of the transferee and any such account is a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A, in each case in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A and in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United States or any other jurisdiction, and (y) each such transferee of such Note shall be deemed to have made the representations set forth in Section 2.4(a)(i) through (iv).

In addition, each such transferee of such Rule 144A Global Note shall be responsible for providing additional information or certification, as shall be reasonably requested by the Issuer or the Administrator on behalf of the Issuer or any initial purchaser of such Notes, to support the truth and accuracy of the foregoing acknowledgments, representations and agreements, it being understood that such additional information is not intended to create additional restrictions on the transfer of the Notes.

(b) The Indenture Trustee shall not register the exchange of interests in a Note for a Definitive Note or the transfer of or exchange of a Note during the period beginning on any Note Record Date and ending on the next following Payment Date.

(c) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate Notes, subject to such rules as the Indenture Trustee may reasonably require. No service charge to the Noteholder shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein), but the Note Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar government charge payable in connection therewith.

(d) All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with this Section 2.8 shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(e) Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Note, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar and the Issuer may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered (as of the day of determination) as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar or the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.8, the typewritten Note or Notes representing Book-Entry Notes may be transferred, in whole but not in part, only to another nominee of the Clearing Agency, or to a successor Clearing Agency selected or approved by the Issuer or to a nominee of such successor Clearing Agency, only if in accordance with this Section 2.8 and Section 2.18.

(g) Each transferee of an interest in a Book-Entry Note shall be deemed to represent and warrant, and each transferee of an interest in a Definitive Note shall deliver a certification representing and warranting, that:

(i) With respect to the Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D Notes, either (i) it is not, and for so long as it holds any beneficial interest in any such Note will not be (x) a Benefit Plan Investor, (y) a governmental, church or non-U.S. plan that is subject to any federal, state, local or non-U.S. laws that are substantially similar to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (“Similar Law”) or (z) an entity any of the assets of which are (or are deemed for purposes of Similar Law to be) plan assets of any such governmental, church or non-U.S. plan, or (ii) its acquisition, holding and disposition of such Note will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or a violation of Similar Law.

(ii) With respect to the Class E, Class F and Class G Notes, (x) it is not a Benefit Plan Investor, and (y) if it is a governmental, church or non-U.S. that is subject to Similar Law or an entity any of the assets of which are (or are deemed for purposes of Similar Law to be) plan assets of any such governmental, church or non-U.S. plan, its acquisition and holding of such Note will not give rise to a violation of Similar Law.

(h) It acknowledges that the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer, each initial purchaser of the Notes, and their Affiliates, and others will rely exclusively upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing acknowledgments, representations and agreements and shall be under no duty or obligation to verify the accuracy of the same. If it is acquiring any Notes for the account of one or more qualified institutional buyers, it represents that it has sole investment discretion with respect to each such account and that it has full power to make the foregoing acknowledgments, representations and agreements on behalf of each such account.

(i) The Indenture Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among depositary participants or beneficial owners of interests in any Rule 144A Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by the terms of, this Indenture, and to examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

(j) The Issuer has structured this Indenture and the Notes have been (or will be) issued with the intention that the Issuer will be treated as a grantor trust under Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-4, and any person acquiring any direct or indirect interest in any Notes agrees that by acceptance of its Note, to treat such Note for United States federal, state and local income tax purposes, prior to any Indenture Event of Default or prior to a Repo Trigger Event, as an interest in a grantor trust under Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-4.

Section 2.9. Legending of Notes.

Except as permitted by the last two sentences of this Section 2.9, each Note shall bear the legends set forth in Exhibit A for each form of Note in substantially the form set forth therein.

Upon any transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes bearing such legend, or if a request is made to remove such legend on a Note, the Notes so issued shall bear such legend, or such legend shall not be removed, as the case may be, unless there is delivered to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee such satisfactory evidence, which may include an Opinion of Counsel, that neither such legend nor the restrictions on transfer set forth therein are required to ensure that transfers thereof comply with the provisions of Rule 144A under the Securities Act, or another available exemption under the Securities Act. Upon provision of such satisfactory evidence, the Indenture Trustee upon receipt of an Issuer Order shall authenticate and deliver a Note that does not bear such legend.

Section 2.10. Replacement Notes.

(a) If (i) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Indenture Trustee, or the Indenture Trustee and Issuer receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (ii) there is delivered to the Indenture Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by it to hold the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee harmless then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, and provided, that the requirements of Section 8-405 of the UCC (which generally permit the Issuer to impose reasonable requirements) are met, the Issuer shall execute and upon receipt of an Issuer Order the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note; provided, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have become or within seven days shall be due and payable, instead of issuing a replacement Note, the Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due or payable without surrender thereof. If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, a bona fide purchaser of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued (or in respect of which such payment was made) presents for payment such original Note, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Note from such Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a bona fide purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee in connection therewith.

(b) Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 2.10, the Issuer may require the payment by the Holder of such Note of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee and its counsel) connected therewith.

(c) Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.10 in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

Section 2.11. Notes Owned by Issuer.

In determining whether the Noteholders of the required Note Balance of Noteholders have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent, Notes beneficially owned by the Issuer or the Administrator or any Affiliate of the Issuer or the Administrator shall be considered as though they are not outstanding, except that for the purpose of determining whether the Indenture Trustee shall be protected in relying on any such direction, waiver or consent, only Notes of which a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee has actually received written notice of such ownership shall be so disregarded. Absent written notice to the Indenture Trustee of such ownership, the Indenture Trustee shall not be deemed to have actual knowledge of the identity of the individual beneficial owners of the Notes.

Section 2.12. Temporary Notes.

(a) Pending the preparation of Definitive Notes issued under Section 2.18, the Issuer may prepare and the Indenture Trustee, upon receipt of an Issuer Order, shall authenticate and deliver temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of Definitive Notes of like Class but may have variations that are not inconsistent with the terms of this Indenture as the officers executing such Notes may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

(b) If temporary Notes are issued pursuant to Section 2.12(a), the Issuer will cause Definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency of the Issuer to be maintained as provided in Section 8.2, without charge to the Noteholder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Issuer shall execute and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Notes.

Section 2.13. Cancellation.

The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Indenture Trustee. The Note Registrar shall forward to the Indenture Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Indenture Trustee shall cancel all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation. The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace Notes that it has redeemed or paid or that have been delivered to the Indenture Trustee for cancellation. All cancelled Notes held by the Indenture Trustee shall be disposed of in accordance with the Indenture Trustee’s standard disposition procedures.

Section 2.14. Payment of Principal and Interest.

(a) Upon the occurrence of an Indenture Event of Default unless waived by the Required Noteholders, amounts received in respect of the Collateral will be applied on each Payment Date to the payment of the Notes in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 6.1(e) of this Indenture; provided, however, that on the Payment Date following a Sale amounts received in respect of the Collateral will be applied to the payment of the Notes in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 9.6(d) of this Indenture.

(b) Interest on each Class of Notes will accrue during each Interest Accrual Period on the Note Balance of each such Class plus the Interest Shortfall and Basis Risk Shortfall Amount for such Class, each as of the preceding Payment Date, at a per annum rate equal to the Note Rate applicable to such Class, commencing on the Closing Date.

(c) The Indenture Trustee will pay the Interest Payment Amount applicable to each Class of Notes from funds available therefor in the Payment Account pro rata to the Holders of the Notes of such Class in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 6.1(d) or Section 6.1(e), as applicable. The Interest Payment Amount will be payable on each Payment Date to the Holders of the Notes as of the close of business on the related Record Date and ending on the Final Stated Maturity Date (or any Payment Date on which the Notes shall be redeemed in whole). In the event that the Indenture Trustee receives funds in an amount less than the Interest Payment Amount, additional interest on the Interest Shortfall Amount shall accrue at the applicable Note Rate. The Interest Shortfall Amount shall be paid to the Noteholders in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 6.1(d) or Section 6.1(e), as applicable. In the event that any Basis Risk Shortfall Amount exists for any Payment Date, additional interest on such Basis Risk Shortfall Amount shall accrue at the applicable Note Rate. The Basis Risk Shortfall Amount shall be paid to the Noteholders in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 6.1(e).

(d) [Reserved].

(e) If the Issuer defaults in the payment of interest on any Note, such interest, to the extent paid on any date that is more than five (5) Business Days after the applicable due date, shall cease to be payable to the Persons who were Noteholders on the applicable Record Date, and the Issuer shall pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner, plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Noteholders on a subsequent special record date which date shall be at least five (5) Business Days prior to the payment date, at the rate provided in this Indenture and in such Note. The Issuer shall fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date, and at least fifteen (15) days before the special record date, the Issuer (or the Indenture Trustee, in the name of and at the expense of the Issuer) shall mail to Noteholders a notice that states the special record date, the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid.

(f) Except as provided in the following sentence, the Person in whose name any Note is registered at the close of business on any Record Date with respect to a Payment Date for such Note shall be entitled to receive the principal and interest payable on such Payment Date notwithstanding the cancellation of such Note upon any registration of transfer, exchange or substitution of such Note subsequent to such Record Date. Any interest payable at maturity shall be paid to the Person to whom the principal of such Note is payable.

Section 2.15. Calculation of Interest.

(a) For purposes of calculating the Note Rates and the Interest Payment Amounts, the Indenture Trustee is hereby appointed as, and xxxxxx accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the duties of, the Note Calculation Agent. If the Note Calculation Agent is unable or unwilling to act as such, or if the Note Calculation Agent fails to determine either Note Rate and the applicable Interest Payment Amount for any Interest Accrual Period, the Issuer will promptly appoint as a replacement Note Calculation Agent a leading bank with a rating of at least “Baa3” by Moody’s which is engaged in transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the international Eurodollar market. The Note Calculation Agent may not resign its duties without a successor having been duly appointed.

(b) LIBOR for each Interest Accrual Period shall be determined by the Note Calculation Agent in accordance with the following provisions. On the second (2nd) Business Day prior to the commencement of an Interest Accrual Period (each such day, a “LIBOR Determination Date”), “One-Month LIBOR” shall equal the rate, as obtained by the Note Calculation Agent, by reference to Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR Determination Date; provided, however, that if such rate does not appear on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page, One-Month LIBOR determined on each LIBOR Determination Date for the next Interest Accrual Period shall mean the rate determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in U.S. dollars, having a maturity of one month and in a principal amount of not less than U.S. $1,000,000 are offered at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such LIBOR Determination Date to prime banks in the London interbank market by the four major banks in the London interbank market selected by the Administrator. One-Month LIBOR determined on the basis of the rate displayed on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page in accordance with the provisions hereof; provided, that if the Note Calculation Agent is required but is unable to determine a rate in accordance with the procedures provided above or if One-Month LIBOR is not available, the Note Calculation Agent may use an alternative index solely as directed in writing by the Administrator or, with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans, the Servicer; provided, that if no alternative index is directed, LIBOR in effect for the applicable Interest Accrual Period will be LIBOR in effect for the previous Interest Accrual Period.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, on any Payment Date following a REMIC Election, “One-Month LIBOR” shall be capped for each Payment Date following such REMIC Election at the rate of One-Month LIBOR (or if applicable, the Alternative Rate) on the Payment Date immediately preceding the date on which the REMIC Election was made plus an additional 100 basis points. In the event a LIBOR Termination Event occurs following the date of a REMIC Election, the foregoing cap shall apply to the Alternative Rate in effect on the date of such conversion to the Alternative Rate.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, following any LIBOR Termination Event, (i) the Administrator shall use its best commercial efforts to designate an Alternative Index and the applicable Base Rate Modifier for purposes of determining the Alternative Rate, and thereafter all references herein to “One-Month LIBOR” will mean such Alternative Rate and the applicable Base Rate Modifier or (ii) if the Administrator does not select an Alternative Index and the applicable Base Rate Modifier pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) prior to the next LIBOR Determination Date, One-Month LIBOR will be One-Month LIBOR as determined on the day One-Month LIBOR was last available to the Note Calculation Agent on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or any successor or substitute page as determined by the Administrator); provided, however, that, if the Administrator has not selected an Alternative Index and an Alternative Note Rate Trigger occurs, the Servicer shall notify the Note Calculation Agent in writing that the successor interest rate index applicable to the Purchased Mortgage Loans which are adjustable-rate mortgage notes in connection with such Alternative Note Rate Trigger shall be the designated Alternative Index with respect to the Notes and the related base rate modifier, if any, shall also be the Base Rate Modifier with respect to the Notes, in each case, as further described below. If the Administrator designates an Alternative Index and the applicable Base Rate Modifier pursuant to clause (i) above, then the Administrator shall notify the Note Calculation Agent in writing that such designation has been made and will direct the Note Calculation Agent in writing to use such Alternative Index and applicable Base Rate Modifier. An “Alternative Note Rate Trigger” will occur if the Servicer has converted Purchased Mortgage Loans which are adjustable-rate mortgage loans to a new specified index other than one-year LIBOR pursuant to the related mortgage notes and such new index represents the index for the highest percentage of Purchased Mortgage Loans which are adjustable-rate mortgage loans (by unpaid principal balance) as of such date of determination. The Servicer shall notify the Note Calculation Agent in writing that an Alternative Rate Trigger has occurred. In no event will the Note Calculation Agent be responsible for determining LIBOR or any substitute or successor for LIBOR if the applicable rate does not appear on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page.

The Note Calculation Agent will have no duty, obligation or responsibility for (i) monitoring for a LIBOR Termination Event or Alternative Note Rate Trigger or (ii) determining an Alternative Index, Alternative Rate or Base Rate Modifier. The Note Calculation Agent will be entitled to conclusively rely upon without further investigation or inquiry and will be protected in relying upon (i) the Administrator’s or the Servicer’s determination that a LIBOR Termination Event or an Alternative Note Rate Trigger has occurred and (ii) the Administrator’s or the Servicer’s designation of an Alternative Index and applicable Base Rate Modifier.

For the avoidance of doubt, in the context of selecting an Alternative Index or any substitute or replacement rate for LIBOR, the Administrator or the Servicer, as applicable, shall confirm that the Note Calculation Agent can access the Alternative Index or any such substitute or replacement rate for LIBOR or shall otherwise ensure the ongoing provision in a reasonable manner of the Alternative Index or any such substitute or replacement rate for LIBOR to the Note Calculation Agent. The Administrator or the Servicer, as applicable, will also confirm that the Note Calculation Agent can reasonably apply the Base Rate Modifier.

Section 2.16. Book-Entry Notes.

(a) For each Class of Notes to be issued in registered form, the Issuer shall duly execute the Notes, and the Indenture Trustee shall, in accordance with Section 2.3, authenticate and deliver initially one or more Rule 144A Global Notes that (a) shall be registered on the Note Register in the name of the Clearing Agency or the Clearing Agency’s nominee, and (b) shall bear additional legends substantially to the following effect:

UNLESS THIS NOTE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION (“DTC”), TO THE ISSUER OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY NOTE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. (“CEDE”) OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC, ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE, HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.

So long as the Clearing Agency or its nominee is the registered owner or holder of a Rule 144A Global Note, the Clearing Agency or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the Notes represented by such Rule 144A Global Note for purposes of this Indenture and such Notes. Members of, or participants in, the Clearing Agency shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Rule 144A Global Note held on their behalf by the Clearing Agency, and the Clearing Agency may be treated by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of such entities as the absolute owner of such Rule 144A Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of such entities from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Clearing Agency or impair, as between the Clearing Agency and its agent members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Note. Account holders or participants in Euroclear, Clearstream or any other Clearing Agency designated by the Issuer, shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to such Rule 144A Global Note, and the registered holder may be treated by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee as the owner of such Rule 144A Global Note for all purposes whatsoever.

(b) Subject to Section 2.8(g), the provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and the “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear”, the “Management Regulations” and “Instructions to Participants” of Clearstream and the operating procedures of any other Clearing Agency designated by the Issuer shall be applicable to the Rule 144A Global Note insofar as interests in a Rule 144A Global Note are held by the agent members of Euroclear, Clearstream or such other Clearing Agency designated by the Issuer. The procedures described in this paragraph, to the extent relating to actions to be taken with respect to any Rule 144A Global Note shall be the “Applicable Procedures” for such actions.

(c) Title to the Notes shall pass only by registration in the Note Register maintained by the Note Registrar pursuant to Section 2.8.

(d) Any typewritten Note or Notes representing Book-Entry Notes shall provide that they represent the aggregate or a specified amount of outstanding Notes from time to time endorsed thereon and may also provide that the aggregate amount of outstanding Notes represented thereby may from time to time be reduced to reflect exchanges. Any endorsement of a typewritten Note or Notes representing Book-Entry Notes to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, or changes in the rights of Note Owners represented thereby, shall be made in such manner and by such Person or Persons as shall be specified therein or in the Issuer Order to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 2.3. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.4, the Indenture Trustee shall deliver and redeliver any typewritten Note or Notes representing Book-Entry Notes in the manner and upon instructions given by the Person or Persons specified therein or in the applicable Issuer Order. Any instructions by the Issuer with respect to endorsement or delivery or redelivery of a typewritten Note or Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes shall be in writing but need not comply with Section 13.3 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel.

(e) Unless and until Definitive Notes have been issued to Note Owners pursuant to Section 2.18, the provisions of this Section 2.16 shall be in full force and effect;

(i) the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar and the Issuer may deal with the Clearing Agency and the Clearing Agency Participants for all purposes of this Indenture (including the making of payments on the Notes and the giving of instructions or directions hereunder) as the authorized representatives of the Note Owners;

(ii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 2.16 conflict with any other provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Section 2.16 shall control;

(iii) whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of Holders of Notes evidencing a specified percentage of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes, the applicable Clearing Agency shall be deemed to represent such percentage only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from Note Owners and/or their related Clearing Agency Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest in the Notes and has delivered such instructions to the Indenture Trustee; and

(iv) the rights of Note Owners shall be exercised only through the applicable Clearing Agency and their related Clearing Agency Participants and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Note Owners and their related Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants. Unless and until Definitive Notes are issued pursuant to Section 2.18, the applicable Clearing Agencies will make book-entry transfers among their related Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal and interest on the Notes to such Clearing Agency Participants.

Section 2.17. Notices to Clearing Agency.

Whenever notice or other communication to the Noteholders is required under this Indenture, unless and until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to Note Owners pursuant to Section 2.18, the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to Noteholders to the applicable Clearing Agency for distribution to the Note Owners.

Section 2.18. Definitive Notes.

(a) Conditions for Issuance. Interests in a Rule 144A Global Note deposited with the Clearing Agency pursuant to Section 2.16 shall be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Notes only if (x) the Clearing Agency notifies the Issuer that it is unwilling or unable to continue as depositary for such Rule 144A Global Note or at any time ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act, and a successor depositary so registered is not appointed by the Issuer within 90 days of such notice or (y) the Issuer determines that the Rule 144A Global Note shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes, in which case Definitive Notes shall be issuable or exchangeable only in respect of such Rule 144A Global Notes or the category of Definitive Notes represented thereby. Definitive Notes shall be issued without coupons in amounts of U.S. $25,000 and integral multiples of U.S. $1, subject to compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

(b) Issuance. If interests in any Rule 144A Global Note are to be transferred to the beneficial owners thereof in the form of Definitive Notes pursuant to this Section 2.18, such Rule 144A Global Note shall be surrendered by the Clearing Agency to the office or agency of the Transfer Agent located in St. Xxxx, Minnesota, to be so transferred, without charge. The Definitive Notes transferred pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall be executed, authenticated and delivered only in the denominations specified in paragraph (a) above, and Definitive Notes shall be registered in such names as the Clearing Agency shall direct in writing. The Transfer Agent shall have at least 30 days from the date of its receipt of Definitive Notes and registration information to authenticate and deliver such Definitive Notes. Any Definitive Notes delivered in exchange for an interest in a Rule 144A Global Note shall, except as otherwise provided by Section 2.9, bear, and be subject to, the legend regarding transfer restrictions set forth in Section 2.9. The Issuer will promptly make available to the Transfer Agent a reasonable supply of Definitive Notes. The Issuer shall bear the costs and expenses of printing or preparing any Definitive Notes.

(c) Transfers. The transfer of interests in any transfers of any such Definitive Notes shall not be effected unless and until the Transfer Agent has received a certificate of the proposed transferees setting forth the representations and warranties of such transferee required to be made as set forth in Section 2.8(g).

Section 2.19. CUSIP Numbers.

The Issuer in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Indenture Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Noteholders; provided, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Issuer will promptly notify the Indenture Trustee of any change in the “CUSIP” numbers.

Section 2.20. Certain Tax Matters.

It is the intention of the parties hereto that for United States federal income tax purposes, the Issuer, the Master Repurchase Agreement and the Notes will be treated as follows:

(a) The Issuer will be treated as a grantor trust under Treasury Regulations Section 301.7701-4 that holds the Master Repurchase Agreement and the Notes will be treated as representing undivided, beneficial interests in the Master Repurchase Agreement.

(b) The Master Repurchase Agreement will be treated as the Indebtedness of the Seller.

(c) Each Holder of a Note will (A) be treated as owning, under Section 671 of the Code, the proportionate interest in the Master Repurchase Agreement represented by such Note and, (B) to the fullest extent possible, be treated as directly owning such proportionate interest in the Master Repurchase Agreement for reporting purposes.

(d) The Seller shall be treated as the owner of the Payment Account.

(e) Solely for tax purposes, the Specified Margin for each of the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes, the Class C Notes, the Class D Notes, the Class E Notes, the Class F Notes and the Class G Notes shall be 0.75000%. Solely for tax purposes, with respect to Holders of the Class B Notes, a Noteholder is also treated as owning their proportionate share of a “stripped coupon” representing interest payable under the Master Repurchase Agreement (together the “Collateralized Debt”) in an amount equal to a per annum rate equal to 0.01400%, calculated based on a notional amount equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes on each Payment Date. Solely for tax purposes, with respect to Holders of the Class C Notes, a Noteholder is also treated as owning their proportionate share of a “stripped coupon” representing interest payable under the Collateralized Debt in an amount equal to a per annum rate equal to 0.03200%, calculated based on a notional amount equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes on each Payment Date. Solely for tax purposes, with respect to Holders of the Class D Notes, a Noteholder is also treated as owning their proportionate share of a “stripped coupon” representing interest payable under the Collateralized Debt in an amount equal to a per annum rate equal to 0.02400%, calculated based on a notional amount equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes on each Payment Date. Solely for tax purposes, with respect to Holders of the Class E Notes, a Noteholder is also treated as owning their proportionate share of a “stripped coupon” representing interest payable under the Collateralized Debt in an amount equal to a per annum rate equal to 0.07161%, calculated based on a notional amount equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes on each Payment Date. Solely for tax purposes, with respect to Holders of the Class F Notes, a Noteholder is also treated as owning their proportionate share of a “stripped coupon” representing interest payable under the Collateralized Debt in an amount equal to a per annum rate equal to 0.11650%, calculated based on a notional amount equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes on each Payment Date. Solely for tax purposes, with respect to Holders of the Class G Notes, a Noteholder is also treated as owning their proportionate share of a “stripped coupon” representing interest payable under the Collateralized Debt in an amount equal to a per annum rate equal to 0.16250%, calculated based on a notional amount equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes on each Payment Date.

Each party hereto, including each Holder of a Note by virtue of acquiring such Note, agrees, except in the case of an Indenture Event of Default or a Repo Trigger Event, to report consistently with such treatment for purposes of all income and franchise taxes and further agrees not to take any action (or refrain from taking any action) within its control that would cause the Issuer to lose its status as a “grantor trust” within the meaning of Section 301.7701-4 of the Treasury Regulations that is “owned” by the Holders within the meaning of Section 671 of the Code.

(f) The Indenture is intended to be a security device for U.S. federal income tax purposes and not an entity for the purposes of Section 301.7701-1 of the Treasury Regulations. If for any period, the Indenture is determined by tax authorities to be a taxable mortgage pool for the purposes of Section 7701(i) of the Code, the Indenture Trustee shall prepare or cause to be prepared appropriate state and federal tax returns at the expense of the Holders of the Trust Certificates. The cost of any tax due shall be allocated among the classes pursuant to Section 6.4. In the event that the Indenture is classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, for any taxable years for which Sections 6221 through 6241 of the Code, as amended by Public Law No. 114-74, apply to the Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be the partnership representative, and the partnership representative shall, to the extent eligible, make the election under Section 6221(b) of the Code with respect to the Indenture and take any other action such as disclosures and notifications necessary to effectuate such election. If the election described in the preceding sentence is not available, to the extent applicable, the partnership representative shall make the election under Section 6226(a) of the Code with respect to the Indenture and take any other action such as filings, disclosures and notifications necessary to effectuate such election.

ARTICLE III.

SECURITY

Section 3.1. Security Interest.

Pursuant to this Indenture, in order to secure the Issuer’s obligations hereunder, the Issuer has pledged, assigned, conveyed, delivered, transferred and set over to the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders all of the Issuer’s right, title and interest in and to all of the Collateral.

The Issuer shall pay, or reimburse the Indenture Trustee for, any and all amounts in respect of, all search, filing, recording and registration fees, taxes, excise taxes and other similar imposts that may be payable or determined to be payable in respect of the execution, delivery, performance and/or enforcement of this Indenture. The foregoing shall not, however, be deemed to create any obligation whatsoever of the Indenture Trustee to pay any such amounts.

Section 3.3. Release of Collateral.

Each Purchased Asset that is repurchased by the Seller under the Repurchase Agreement and does not become subject to a new Transaction will be released from the lien of this Indenture against receipt of the consideration required to be delivered by the Seller for such a Purchased Asset under the Repurchase Agreement with notice to the Mortgage Loan Custodian. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Custodian upon receipt of such consideration into the Payment Account or Buyer’s Account, as applicable. So long as no Indenture Event of Default or Repo Trigger Event has occurred and is continuing, for each Purchased Asset that does not automatically become subject to a new Transaction, and upon such receipt and provided that no Indenture Event of Default or Repo Trigger Event shall otherwise have occurred and be continuing, such Purchased Asset shall be automatically released from the lien of this Indenture with notice to the Mortgage Loan Custodian.

Pursuant to the terms hereto, on each Business Day, the Indenture Trustee shall electronically provide the Servicer with a schedule of Mortgage Loans that are Purchased Assets.

Section 4.2. Servicing.

(a) The Servicer shall service the Purchased Mortgage Loans in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices (as defined in the Master Repurchase Agreement) and the Servicing Addendum. The Servicer shall not resign as servicer or transfer the servicing of any Purchased Mortgage Loan without the prior written consent of the Required Noteholders and the Standby Servicer. The Servicer shall not be permitted to resign unless a successor servicer has been appointed or the Standby Servicer has assumed the role of Servicer. If the Standby Servicer is unable or unwilling to act as successor Xxxxxxxx, it may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint such successor. The Indenture Trustee shall provide the Rating Agency with written notice upon any resignation of the Servicer pursuant to Section 4.3. The Servicer shall hold or cause to be held all escrow funds collected with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans in trust accounts (each of which shall be an Eligible Account) in trust for the Holders of the Notes and shall apply the same for the purposes for which such funds were collected. The Servicer will maintain all Servicing Records not in the possession of the Mortgage Loan Custodian in good and complete condition in accordance with industry practices for assets similar to the Purchased Mortgage Loans and preserve them against loss. On each Business Day, the Indenture Trustee shall electronically provide the Servicer with a schedule of Mortgage Loans subject to the Master Repurchase Agreement. In connection with the foregoing, the Servicer hereby acknowledges and agrees that, the Servicer is servicing the Mortgage Loans subject to the Master Repurchase Agreement for the benefit of Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Noteholders.

(b) Except under the circumstances specified in Section 5.2(c), the Servicer shall cause all Income received by it on account of the Purchased Mortgage Loans to be deposited in the Buyer’s Account within one (1) Business Day of receipt; provided, however, that, if the Standby Servicer is the Servicer, such amounts shall be deposited within two (2) Business Days of receipt. The Payment Account shall only contain collections on the Purchased Assets subject to this Indenture. As further provided in Section 5.1 hereof, the Payment Account shall be held at U.S. Bank National Association, in the name of and under the sole control of the Indenture Trustee. Neither the Seller nor the Servicer shall have any right to direct any disposition of funds from the Payment Account or to give any instructions of any kind to the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Payment Account. Upon making any deposit into Payment Account, the Servicer shall provide the Indenture Trustee with the loan identification number and the principal and interest attributable to such Mortgage Loan which shall have been deposited into the Payment Account.

(c) The Servicer shall service the Purchased Mortgage Loans for a term of thirty (30) days (the “Servicing Term”) commencing as of the date of the related initial Purchase Date. Each such Servicing Term shall be deemed to be renewed or terminated. If such Servicing Term is not renewed (which is hereby deemed renewed unless (i) a Servicing Termination Event has occurred and is continuing or (ii) if the Seller is the Servicer, a Repo Trigger Event under the Master Repurchase Agreement has occurred and is continuing), the Servicer agrees that the Indenture Trustee may terminate the Servicer as servicer hereunder at will and the Servicer shall transfer the servicing as described below.

(d) On each Reporting Date, the Servicer shall furnish to the Issuer, the Rating Agency and the Indenture Trustee the Asset Tape for the Purchased Mortgage Loans as of the last day of the calendar month preceding the related Reporting Date and a Monthly Servicer Report for such Reporting Date; provided, that, with respect to the first Reporting Date, the Asset Tape and the Monthly Servicer Report for the Purchased Mortgage Loans will be as of the Closing Date. Included in such Asset Tape shall be the delinquency status of each Purchased Mortgage Loan without including in such determination any payment holidays or skip payments. If the Servicer should discover that, for any reason whatsoever, the Servicer or any entity responsible to the Servicer for managing or servicing any such Purchased Mortgage Loan has failed to perform fully the Servicer’s obligations under the Program Agreements or any of the obligations of such entities with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall promptly notify the Indenture Trustee and the Standby Servicer.

(e) Neither the Servicer nor those acting on the Servicer’s behalf shall amend, modify, or waive any term or condition of, or settle or compromise any claim in respect of, any item of the Purchased Mortgage Loans or any related rights or any of the Program Agreements without the prior written consent of Holders of 66 2/3% of each Class of Notes, except if such action may be taken without the consent of any Holders if such action does not (i) affect the amount or timing of any payment of principal or interest payable with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan, extend its scheduled maturity date, modify its interest rate, or constitute a cancellation, reduction or discharge of its outstanding principal balance or (ii) materially and adversely affect the security afforded by the real property, furnishings, fixtures, or equipment securing such Asset.

(f) The Indenture Trustee is not responsible for the Servicer’s performance of its obligations under this Indenture, the Servicer is not an agent of the Indenture Trustee, and under no circumstances shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any action or inaction of the Servicer.

Section 4.3. Termination of Servicing.

(a) The Indenture Trustee shall be entitled, by written notice to the Servicer, to effect termination of the Servicer’s servicing rights and obligations respecting the Purchased Mortgage Loans in the event any of the following circumstances or events (“Servicing Termination Events”) occur and are continuing:

(i) failure of the Servicer to make any deposits or remittances as required under the terms of this Indenture which is not cured within three (3) Business Days;

(ii) failure of the Servicer to perform, observe, or comply with any other material term, condition, or agreement applicable to the Servicer under this Indenture, which is not cured within fifteen (15) Business Days;

(iii) any case, proceeding, petition or action shall be commenced or filed, without the Servicer’s application or consent, in any court, seeking the liquidation, reorganization, debt arrangement, dissolution, winding up, or composition or readjustment or relief of debts of the Servicer, the appointment of a trustee, receiver, custodian, liquidator, assignee, sequestrator or the like for the Servicer or all or substantially all of the Servicer’s assets, or any assignment for the benefit of the creditors of the Servicer, or any similar case, proceeding, petition or action with respect to the Servicer under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, winding up or composition or adjustment of debts shall be

commenced or filed against the Servicer, and such case, proceeding, petition or action shall continue undismissed, or unstayed and in effect, for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days; or an order for relief in respect of the Servicer shall be entered in an involuntary case under the Bankruptcy Code or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect;

(iv) the Servicer shall commence or file a voluntary case or other proceeding under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, debt arrangement, dissolution or other similar law now or hereafter in effect (including, without limitation, under Section 301 of the Bankruptcy Code), or shall consent to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or other similar official) for, the Servicer or for substantially all of its property, or shall make any general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall fail to, or admit in writing its inability to, pay its debts generally as they become due, or its board of directors or managers shall vote to implement any of the foregoing; or

(v) if the Servicer is the Seller or an Affiliate of the Seller, an Event of Default under the Master Repurchase Agreement has occurred and is continuing.

(b) Upon the receipt of written notice by a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee from the majority Holders of the most senior Class of Notes which contains a direction to terminate the Servicer due to the occurrence and continuance of a Servicing Termination Event, the Indenture Trustee shall appoint a successor servicer as set forth herein.

(c) If an Indenture Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or a Repo Trigger Event has occurred, and at the same time, a servicing term is not renewed, the Servicer is terminated by the Indenture Trustee or a Servicing Termination Event has occurred, the Indenture Trustee, with written notice or upon actual knowledge of a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee of such Indenture Event of Default, shall appoint a successor servicer for the Servicer being terminated. If, within sixty (60) days of the date on which such obligation is incurred, the Indenture Trustee has not appointed a successor servicer, the Standby Servicer will become the successor servicer; provided that the Standby Servicer shall not be required to become the successor servicer if becoming successor servicer would be prohibited by law, which shall be evidenced by an opinion of counsel. The successor servicer will have sixty (60) days from the date of appointment to complete the transfer of servicing and will not be liable to the extent the prior Servicer does not deliver required documentation or accurate data necessary to effect such transfer. Any expenses incurred as a result of transferring servicing shall be paid by the predecessor Servicer. Such successor servicer will be authorized and empowered, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, to execute and deliver, 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 Purchased Mortgage Loans serviced by the Servicer and related documents, or otherwise. The terminated Servicer will be required to cooperate in transferring the servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loans serviced by it to the successor servicer pursuant to the terms set forth in Section 4 hereto and the Servicing Addendum. On and after the completion of the transition of servicing, the successor servicer will be the successor in all respects to the terminated Servicer in its capacity as Servicer herein and the transactions set forth or provided for herein, and all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter with respect to servicing the related Purchased Mortgage Loans will be assumed by such successor servicer (subject to such successor servicer receiving complete and accurate data from the terminated Servicer).

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, a successor servicer shall not be responsible or liable for the servicing activities of any terminated Servicer, including for any unlawful act or omission, breach, negligence, fraud, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Servicer, including (i) no liability with respect to any obligation that was required to be performed by the predecessor Servicer prior to the date that the successor becomes the successor servicer or any claim of a third party based on any alleged action or inaction of the predecessor Servicer, (ii) no obligation to perform any repurchase or advancing obligations, if any, of the terminated Servicer, (iii) no obligation to pay any taxes required to be paid by the terminated Servicer, (iv) no obligation to pay any of the fees and expenses of any other party to this Indenture and (v) no liability or obligation with respect to any indemnification obligations of any prior Servicer.

(e) If the Standby Servicer becomes the successor servicer with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans or otherwise appoints a successor servicer, such successor servicer will be entitled to a monthly fee (the “Monthly Servicing Fee”), payable from amounts received in respect of the Purchased Mortgage Loans serviced by such successor servicer equal to 1/12^th of the product of (i) 0.25% and (ii) the beginning unpaid principal balance of the Purchased Mortgage Loan on the first day of the month prior to such month. As additional servicing compensation, a successor servicer will generally be entitled to retain (a) all servicing related fees, including fees collected in connection with assumptions, modification, late payment charges and other similar amounts to the extent collected from the borrower and (b) any investment earnings on funds held in the escrow accounts on behalf of any borrower.

(f) The relationship of the Standby Servicer (and of any successor to the Standby Servicer as Standby Servicer under this Agreement) to the Issuer under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent. Other than the duties specifically set forth in this Indenture, the Standby Servicer shall have no obligations under this Indenture, including, without limitation, any obligation to supervise, verify, monitor or administer the performance of the Servicer.

Section 4.4. Ongoing Diligence.

(a) On each Review Date, the Administrator on behalf of the Issuer is required to provide or cause to be provided to the Indenture Trustee and the Diligence Provider, an Asset Tape setting forth all Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to the Master Repurchase Agreement on such date of delivery. Within two (2) Business Days of receipt of such Asset Tape, the Diligence Provider shall randomly select 100 of the Purchased Mortgage Loans (other than Wet Loans) listed thereon; provided, that the random selection of Purchased Mortgage Loans for review shall be limited to (i) Purchased Mortgage Loans acquired since the preceding Review Date and (ii) any Purchased Mortgage Loans not previously subject to a review by the Diligence Provider for purposes of this transaction, and the Administrator on behalf of the Issuer shall promptly provide (or shall cause to be provided) all data, files and information requested by the Diligence Provider to perform its review. Pursuant to the Monitoring Agreement, the Diligence Provider shall compare the Asset Tape received from the Issuer to the data, files and information received from the Issuer and provide the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer, the Seller and the Rating Agency with a diligence report (each, a “Diligence Report”) regarding (i) the compliance of such Purchased Mortgage Loans with the underwriting guidelines of the applicable Agency, (ii) the compliance of such Purchased Mortgage Loans with applicable federal, state and local laws, (iii) the integrity of the data regarding the Purchased Mortgage

Loans, (iv) the validity of the appraisals with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loans and (v) a comparison of the automated underwriting system (“AUS”) number found on the Asset Tape to the AUS number appearing in the credit file (which AUS number appearing in the credit file is generated by Xxxxxx Xxx or Freddie Mac, as applicable) provided to the Diligence Provider or, if such Purchased Mortgage Loan does not have an AUS number, a comparison of the Agency case number found on the asset tape to the Agency case number appearing in the credit file (which Agency case number in the credit file is generated by FHA or VA, as applicable) provided to the Diligence Provider. An initial Diligence Report (each, an “Initial Diligence Report”) will be delivered by the Diligence Provider to the Indenture Trustee and the Seller no later than the 15th Business Day following the delivery to the Diligence Provider of the mortgage files related to the Purchased Mortgage Loans to be reviewed. The final Diligence Report (each, a “Final Diligence Report”) will be delivered by the Diligence Provider to the Indenture Trustee, the Seller and the Rating Agency no later than two (2) Business Days following the end of the 60-day cure period further described below. Pursuant to the Monitoring Agreement, within two (2) Business Days of its delivery of the final Diligence Report, the Diligence Provider shall prepare a summary of the findings contained in the Final Diligence Report (including, but not limited to, an identification of Purchased Mortgaged Loans with Level C or Level D Exceptions and a list of Purchased Mortgage Loans for which any exceptions identified by the Diligence Provider were successfully rebutted by the Seller). The Diligence Report will be based solely upon the information provided to the Diligence Provider by the Issuer. Each period beginning with the date on which the Diligence Provider selects the sample of Purchased Mortgage Loans to be reviewed and ending on the date of on which the Diligence Provider delivers its Final Diligence Report is referred to herein as a review period (the “Review Period”).

The Issuer, upon request, shall provide the Asset Tape to the Rating Agency within 2 Business Days and shall also forward such Asset Tape to the Administrator who shall make it available on the 17g-5 Website.

(b) In the event any Level C Exception or Level D Exception is identified in an Initial Diligence Report, the Seller will have sixty (60) days to cure (or clear) such Level C Exceptions or Level D Exceptions with the Diligence Provider. To the extent that the Seller is unable to cure any Level C Exceptions within such sixty (60) day period, the Diligence Provider will, within two (2) Business Days following the end of such sixty (60) day period, notify the Indenture Trustee of such failure in the related Final Diligence Report, and the Seller will be required to repurchase such Purchased Mortgage Loan within one (1) Business Day of such notification for the applicable Repurchase Price (to the extent such mortgage loan is still owned by the Issuer). Any Level D Exceptions identified in an Initial Diligence Report will be repurchased by the Seller within one (1) Business Day of its receipt of such Initial Diligence Report. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the Diligence Provider finds that any Purchased Mortgage Loan is in violation of the TILA RESPA Integrated Disclosure Rule (“TRID”), it shall notify the Seller and the Indenture Trustee of such failure in the related Diligence Report, and the Seller will be required to repurchase such Purchased Mortgage Loan for the applicable Repurchase Price within one (1) Business Day of such notification.

To the extent that a Final Diligence Report for a Review Period identifies Level C Exceptions and/or Level D Exceptions which in the aggregate represent an amount greater than 10% (by loan count) of the Purchased Mortgage Loans reviewed, the Seller will be required to deposit additional Eligible Mortgage Loans and/or cash into the Margin Account as follows: (i) if the aggregate amount of Level C Exceptions and/or Level D Exceptions for such Review Period is greater than 10% (by loan count) of the Purchased Mortgage Loans reviewed but less than or equal to 15% (by loan count) of the Purchased Mortgage Loans reviewed, additional Eligible Mortgage Loans and/or cash equal to 5% of the aggregate outstanding Purchase Price and (ii) if the aggregate amount of Level C Exceptions and/or Level D Exceptions for such Review Period is greater than 15% (by loan count) of the Purchased Mortgage Loans reviewed, no further Eligible Mortgage Loans will be purchased pursuant to the Master Repurchase Agreement. A violation of TRID found by the Diligence Provider that constitutes a Level C Exception or a Level D Exception will not be included in the calculations set forth in the preceding sentence.

Additional Eligible Mortgage Loans or cash deposited into the Margin Account as described in the preceding paragraph are referred to herein as “Reserve Deposits.” Reserve Deposits may be released to the Seller in full or in part to the extent that the Level C Exceptions and/or Level D Exceptions for a preceding Review Period are reduced in the aggregate to below 10% (by loan count) of the Purchased Mortgage Loans reviewed. By way of example, if a Final Diligence Report for a Review Period included aggregate Level C Exceptions and Level D Exceptions with respect to 13% (by loan count) of the Purchased Mortgage Loans reviewed (which required the Seller to make a Reserve Deposit to the Margin Account in an amount equal to 5% of the aggregate outstanding Purchase Price as of such date), but a subsequent Final Diligence Report for a subsequent Review Period includes aggregate Level C Exceptions and Level D Exceptions with respect to 8% (by loan count) of the Purchased Mortgage Loans reviewed for such subsequent Review Period, then the Reserve Deposit would be eliminated as of such date and any additional Eligible Mortgage Loans and/or cash in excess of such amount may be released to the Seller. To the extent a Repo Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any cash or collections from additional Eligible Mortgage Loans in the Reserve Deposit in the Margin Account will be remitted to the Payment Account and will be applied in accordance with the priority of payments with respect to the Notes.

With respect to the Diligence Provider’s valuation review of Purchased Mortgage Loans that are not FHA Streamline Mortgage Loans or VA IRRR Mortgage Loans the Diligence Provider shall obtain a collateral desktop analysis or like product for each of such Purchased Mortgage Loans being reviewed and, to the extent that the collateral desktop analysis or like product valuation for any such Purchased Mortgage Loan is 10% or more less than the appraised value for such Purchased Mortgage Loan, a field review shall be obtained by the Diligence Provider at the expense of the Seller. The Seller shall repurchase a Purchased Mortgage Loan with a Valuation Deficiency for the applicable Repurchase Price within one Business Day.

With respect to the Diligence Provider’s valuation review of Purchased Mortgage Loans that are FHA Streamline Mortgage Loans or VA IRRR Mortgage Loans, the Diligence Provider will obtain an AVM for each such Purchased Mortgage Loan being reviewed. The Seller shall repurchase a Purchased Mortgage Loan with a Valuation Deficiency for the applicable Repurchase Price within one business day.

With respect to the Diligence Provider’s data integrity review, to the extent that a Final Diligence Report indicates any data integrity deficiencies with respect to the Asset Tape, the Seller shall cure such deficiency in the Asset Tape and if such data integrity deficiency causes the subject Mortgage Loan to no longer satisfy the requirements of an Eligible Mortgage Loan under the Master Repurchase Agreement, the Seller will be required to repurchase such Purchased Mortgage Loan for the applicable Repurchase Price within one (1) Business Day of such notification.

With respect to the Diligence Provider’s review of AUS numbers and Agency case numbers, if a Final Diligence Report indicates that any Purchased Mortgage Loan does not have an AUS number or Agency case number on the Asset Tape that matches the AUS number or With respect to the Diligence Provider’s valuation review of Purchased Mortgage Loans that are FHA Streamline Mortgage Loans or VA IRRR Mortgage Loans, the Diligence Provider will obtain an AVM for each such Purchased Mortgage Loan being reviewed. The Repo Seller will repurchase a Purchased Mortgage Loan with a Valuation Deficiency for the applicable Repurchase Price within one business day.

The Seller will be obligated to repurchase any Purchased Mortgage Loan as described in this Section 4.4 pursuant to the terms of the Master Repurchase Agreement. In all cases described in this Section 4.4(b), if any Purchased Mortgage Loan requiring repurchase is no longer owned by the Issuer, no further action will be required of the Indenture Trustee.

(c) If (i) an Act of Insolvency with respect to the Diligence Provider occurs or (ii) if the Diligence Provider fails to perform its obligations when due under the Monitoring Agreement, provided that it has received timely and complete data files and information as required from the Issuer, then the Diligence Provider’s obligations pursuant to this Section 4.4 and under the Monitoring Agreement shall be automatically terminated for cause. The Administrator, on behalf of the Issuer, shall use its best efforts to promptly, and, if the termination occurs on or during the 15 Business Day period prior to when the next Diligence Report is due, within five (5) Business Days following such termination, hire a replacement due diligence provider at market price to perform the obligations of the Diligence Provider set forth in Sections 4.4(a), (b) and (c) hereof, on terms substantially similar to the terms hereof and in the Monitoring Agreement. The replacement diligence provider shall be a Qualified Successor Diligence Provider and shall be required to deliver its first Diligence Report on the same date that the terminated Diligence Provider was required to deliver such Diligence Report and in no event later than the fifth day after such date. If the replacement diligence provider does not deliver the Diligence Report on such date, the Issuer shall not purchase any Replacement Assets from the period when such Diligence Report was due until the date the Diligence Report is actually delivered.

(d) Upon written request and subject to the Noteholder executing a confidentiality agreement with the Diligence Provider, the Diligence Provider shall provide a Noteholder with access to any Final Diligence Reports that it provides to the Rating Agency pursuant to Section 4.4(a) hereof. No borrower specific information or other information that would violate applicable privacy laws shall be included in any such report delivered to the Noteholder.

(e) Upon the occurrence and continuance of a Repo Event of Default, if at any time a Purchased Mortgage Loan is more than one hundred twenty (120) days delinquent, the Administrator on behalf of the Issuer shall hire a third party loan reviewer (other than the Diligence Provider) (the “Delinquent Loan Reviewer”) to review the representations, warranties

and covenants made by the Seller with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loans pursuant to the Master Repurchase Agreement on terms substantially similar to the terms of the Monitoring Agreement; provided, however, that, the Required Noteholders may waive the requirement to appoint such Delinquent Loan Reviewer in writing by providing written notice of such waiver to the Issuer and Indenture Trustee. The Administrator on behalf of the Issuer shall cause the Delinquent Loan Reviewer to deliver a report of its findings (which includes loan level detail) within fifteen (15) days of the commencement of its review. If such report indicates a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loan, upon a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee receiving written notice or actual knowledge of such breach, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly notify the Seller of such breach and request that the Seller repurchase such Purchased Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price. On each Payment Date, the Delinquent Loan Reviewer shall receive the Delinquent Loan Reviewer Fee in accordance with Sections 6.1(e), as applicable and 9.6 hereof.

Section 4.5. Compliance with Rule 17g-5.

Except with respect to the Monthly Payment Date Statement, with respect to any document, notice or other information required pursuant to the Program Agreements to be sent by the Indenture Trustee to the Rating Agency, the Indenture Trustee agrees to provide any such document, notice or other information to the Administrator on behalf of the Issuer prior to delivering such document, notice or other information to the Rating Agency, for posting on the Issuer’s Rule 17g-5 compliant website related to this transaction (the “17g-5 Website”). The Issuer shall promptly post such material on the 17g-5 Website and confirm to the Indenture Trustee that any such document, notice or other information has been posted to the 17g-5 Website.

Section 4.6. Accounting and Reports to Internal Revenue Service and Others.

(a) The Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, shall (a) maintain (or cause to be maintained) the books of the Issuer on a calendar year basis on the accrual method of accounting, (b) upon the request of the Administrator or a Noteholder, deliver to such Noteholder, as may be required by the Code and applicable Treasury Regulations or otherwise, such information as may be required to enable such Noteholder to prepare its federal income tax returns and (c) file such tax returns relating to the Issuer and make such elections as may from time to time be required or appropriate under any applicable state or federal statute or rule or regulation thereunder.

(f) take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee hereunder;

(g) exercise, or cause to be exercised, any remedies contained in any Mortgage; or

(h) exercise the Buyer’s right to terminate the Master Repurchase Agreement.

provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall not, unless required by law, sell or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of the Trust Estate following any Indenture Event of Default except in accordance with Section 9.6 and 9.7; provided, further, that, with respect to instituting any remedies pursuant to this Section 9.4 in any state wherein the law prohibits more than one “judicial action” or “one form of action” to enforce a mortgage obligation, the Indenture Trustee shall enforce any of the Indenture Trustee’s rights hereunder with respect to any Mortgaged Properties.

In the event that the Indenture Trustee, following an Indenture Event of Default, institutes Foreclosure Proceedings, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly give a notice to that effect to the Issuer and the Rating Agency.

Section 9.5. Application of Money Collected.

Any money collected by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Article shall be deposited in the Payment Account and, on each Payment Date, shall be applied in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 6.1(e) or if a Sale, Section 9.6(d), and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of the principal of or interest on the Notes, upon presentation and surrender of the Notes if fully paid.

Section 9.6. Sale of Collateral.

(a) The power to effect any public or private sale of any portion of the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 9.3 or Section 9.4 shall not be exhausted by any one or more sales as to any portion of the Collateral remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until either the entirety of the Trust Estate shall have been sold or all amounts payable on the Notes and under this Indenture with respect thereto shall have been paid. Subject to Section 9.6(b), the Indenture Trustee may from time to time postpone any sale by public announcement made at the time and place of such sale. The Indenture Trustee hereby expressly waives its right to any amount fixed by law as compensation for any such sale, but such waiver does not apply to any amounts to which the Indenture Trustee is otherwise entitled hereunder.

If an Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and such Indenture Event of Default has not been waived by the Required Noteholders or if a Repo Trigger Event has occurred, within 30 days after notice of such Indenture Event of Default or Repo Trigger Event was sent to the Noteholders, the Indenture Trustee, upon obtaining all information necessary to solicit bids for an auction, including but not limited to current data regarding the Purchased Assets, shall prepare to effect an auction of the Collateral; provided, that, such auctions shall only be conducted by the Indenture Trustee for a period of four months from the date on which the Indenture Event of Default or Repo Trigger Event occurs (the “Auction Period”). In connection with any sale of the Collateral by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 9.6, the Indenture Trustee shall solicit bids from at least two regular market participants. The Indenture Trustee shall not sell any Collateral pursuant to this Section 9.6 unless the proceeds of such liquidation would be greater than or equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate Note Balance of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Notes plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (including any Interest Shortfall Amounts) and any Basis Risk Shortfall Amounts for the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D and Class E Notes or such lesser amount as may be agreed to in writing by the Holders of 100% of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, and Class E Notes that will not be paid off in full by such auction and (ii) all accrued and unpaid fees, expenses and indemnities due to the transaction parties arising under the Program Agreements, (such price the “Minimum Sale Price”).

To the extent that an auction conducted by the Indenture Trustee during the Auction Period results in a bid equal to or greater than the Minimum Sale Price, Indenture Trustee shall, within two (2) Business Days of receiving such bid, notify the Holders of the Class F Notes of the amount of the highest bid (such bid, the “Winning Bid”) and offer such Holders the opportunity to purchase the Collateral for an amount greater than the Winning Bid. Upon receipt of a bid from the Holders of the Class F Notes or notice that the Holders of the Class F Notes have declined such option , the Indenture Trustee shall, within two Business Days of receiving such bid or notice, notify the Holders of the Class G Notes and offer such Holders the opportunity to purchase the Collateral for an amount greater than the Winning Bid and the bid, if any, submitted by the Holders of the Class F Notes. Upon receipt of a bid from the Holders of

the Class G Notes or notice that the Holders of the Class G Notes have declined such option, the Indenture Trustee shall, within two Business Days of receiving such bid or notice, notify the Holders of the Trust Certificates of the amount of the Winning Bid and offer such Holders the opportunity to purchase the Collateral for an amount greater than the Winning Bid and the bid, if any, submitted by the Holders of the Class F and Class G Notes. Any such bid from the Holders of the Class F or Class G Notes or the Trust Certificates must be received within five business days or notice that such Holders have declined such option (which notice shall be deemed given if a bid is not received by the Indenture Trustee within five business days of when the notice of the Winning Bid has been provided to such holder).

To the extent that an auction conducted by the Indenture Trustee during the Auction Period results in a bid equal to or greater than the Minimum Sale Price, the Indenture Trustee shall, within two (2) Business Days of receiving such bid, notify the Holders of the Trust Certificates of the amount of the Winning Bid and offer such Holders the opportunity to purchase the Collateral for an amount greater than the Winning Bid. The Indenture Trustee shall provide notices relating to the Winning Bid or any higher bid through the facilities of DTC and directly to each applicable Holder of the Notes or the holders of the Trust Certificates who has submitted an Investor Certification to the Indenture Trustee, in the manner provided in such Investor Certification. The holders of the Trust Certificates shall only have one opportunity to submit a bid higher than the highest bid then received by the Indenture Trustee and each such bid must be received within five (5) Business Days of when notice of the highest bid has been provided to the related holders. Any bid received after the lapse of such five (5) Business Day period shall be deemed rejected.

Following an auction in which the Indenture Trustee determines that the Minimum Sale Price has not been bid or received, the Indenture Trustee shall repeat the auction procedures every thirty (30) days during the Auction Period. During the Auction Period, all payments of principal received in respect of the Purchased Mortgage Loans shall be deposited to the Reserve Account and shall reduce the Minimum Sale Price required to be met in an auction and paid as principal in respect of the Notes. If, following the Auction Period, it is determined that the Minimum Sale Price will not be received, the Indenture Trustee will be required to (i) on behalf of the Buyer, accept the Purchased Mortgage Loans and all other property conveyed by the Seller to the Buyer under the Master Repurchase Agreement, such acceptance to be (A) in full satisfaction of the obligations of the Seller to the Issuer under the Master Repurchase Agreement and (B) effected in a manner that complies with the requirements of paragraph 11(d)(i)(B) of the Master Repurchase Agreement and Section 9-620 of the UCC, and thereafter (ii) make a REMIC Election and use collections received in respect of the Purchased Mortgage Loans (and, with respect to the first Payment Date following the Auction Period, amounts on deposit in the Reserve Account) to make payments on the Notes in accordance with the priority of payments described herein.

The Indenture Trustee, for the purposes of fulfilling the duties set forth in this Section 9.6(b), including determining whether the Minimum Sale Price has been satisfied, may retain an agent or expert; provided, however, the Indenture Trustee shall remain obligated to perform its duties set forth in this Section 9.6(b) regardless of whether the Indenture Trustee shall retain such an investment banking firm.

The foregoing provisions of this Section 9.6(b) shall not preclude or limit the ability of the Indenture Trustee, any Noteholder or their Affiliates to purchase all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale, public or private, and the purchase by the Indenture Trustee or its designee of all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale shall not be deemed a sale or disposition thereof for purposes of this Section 9.6(b).

(b) In the event that any Class of Notes is not fully paid on the Final Stated Maturity Date, the Required Noteholders shall have the right to require the sale of the Collateral, subject to Section 9.6(b) and (d).

(i) any Holder or Holders of Notes and the Seller, or its Affiliates, may bid for and purchase the property offered for sale, and upon compliance with the terms of sale may hold, retain and possess and dispose of such property, without further accountability, and any Holder or Holders of Notes may, in paying the purchase money therefor, deliver any Outstanding Notes or claims for interest thereon in lieu of cash up to the amount which shall, upon distribution of the net proceeds of such sale, be payable thereon, and such Notes, in case the amounts so payable thereon shall be less than the amount due thereon, shall be returned to the Holders thereof after being appropriately stamped to show such partial payment;

(ii) the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver, without recourse, such instrument of conveyance transferring its interest in any portion of the Trust Estate delivered to it by the related purchaser in connection with a sale thereof and releasing such portion of the Trust Estate from the lien of this Indenture;

(iii) the Indenture Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Issuer to transfer and convey any of the Issuer’s interest in any portion of the Trust Estate in connection with a sale thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect such sale; and

(iv) no purchaser or transferee at such a sale shall be bound to ascertain the Indenture Trustee’s authority, inquire into the satisfaction of any conditions precedent or see to the application of any moneys.

(d) On the Payment Date following a Sale, the Securities Intermediary on behalf of the Indenture Trustee shall apply all amounts on deposit in the Payment Account, the Buyer’s Account and the Reserve Account on such date to make payments in the following order of priority:

(i) on a pro rata basis, to the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Mortgage Loan Custodian, the Custodian, the Servicer, the Diligence Provider, the Delinquent Loan Reviewer and the Standby Servicer in respect of all accrued and unpaid fees, expenses and indemnities due and payable to such parties under the Indenture or any other Program Agreements (to the extent not paid from any other account or other party);

(ii) to the Holders of the Class A Notes, the Interest Payment Amount for the Class A Notes for such Payment Date;

(iii) to the Holders of the Class A Notes, as principal, in an amount necessary to reduce the Note Balance of the Class A Notes to zero;

(iv) to the Holders of the Class A Notes, any Basis Risk Shortfall Amount for the Class A Notes for such Payment Date;

(v) to the Holders of the Class B Notes the Interest Payment Amount for the Class B Notes for such Payment Date;

(vi) to the Holders of the Class B Notes, as principal, in an amount necessary to reduce the Note Balance of the Class B Notes to zero;

(vii) to the Holders of the Class B Notes, any Basis Risk Shortfall Amount for the Class B Notes such Payment Date;

(viii) to the Holders of the Class C Notes, the Interest Payment Amount for the Class C Notes for such Payment Date;

(ix) to the Holders of the Class C Notes, as principal, in an amount necessary to reduce the Note Balance of the Class C Notes to zero;

(x) to the Holders of the Class C Notes, any Basis Risk Shortfall Amount for the Class C Notes for such Payment Date;

(xi) to the Holders of the Class D Notes, the Interest Payment Amount for the Class D Notes for such Payment Date;

(xii) to the Holders of the Class D Notes, as principal, in an amount necessary to reduce the Note Balance of the Class D Notes to zero;

(xiii) to the Holders of the Class D Notes, any Basis Risk Shortfall Amount for the Class D Notes for such Payment Date;

(xiv) to the Holders of the Class E Notes, the Interest Payment Amount for the Class E Notes for such Payment Date;

(xv) to the Holders of the Class E Notes, as principal, in an amount necessary to reduce the Note Balance of the Class E Notes to zero;

(xvi) to the Holders of the Class E Notes, any Basis Risk Shortfall Amount for the Class E Notes for such Payment Date;

(xvii) to the Holders of the Class F Notes, the Interest Payment Amount for the Class F Notes for such Payment Date;

(xviii) to the Holders of the Class F Notes, as principal, in an amount necessary to reduce the Note Balance of the Class F Notes to zero;

(xix) to the Holders of the Class F Notes, any Basis Risk Shortfall Amount for the Class F Notes for such Payment Date;

(xx) to the Holders of the Class G Notes, the Interest Payment Amount for the Class G Notes for such Payment Date;

(xxi) to the Holders of the Class G Notes, as principal, in an amount necessary to reduce the Note Balance of the Class G Notes to zero;

(xxii) to the Holders of the Class G Notes, any Basis Risk Shortfall Amount for the Class G Notes for such Payment Date; and

(xxiii) to, or at the direction of, the holders of the Trust Certificates, any remaining amounts.

Section 9.7. Waiver of Events of Default.

Subject to Section 12.2, the Required Noteholders of each Class (voting separately), by written notice to the Indenture Trustee, may waive any existing Repo Event of Default, Potential Indenture Event of Default or Indenture Event of Default other than any Potential Indenture Event of Default or Indenture Event of Default related to clause (a) of Section 9.1 or a continuing Indenture Event of Default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note. Such waiver must be given no later than five (5) Business Days following the receipt of any notice of such default. The Indenture Trustee shall forward any such waiver notice received to the Rating Agency. Upon any such waiver, such Indenture Event of Default shall cease to exist, and any Indenture Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Indenture Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Section 9.8. Limitation on Suits.

Any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, a Noteholder may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes only if:

(i) The Noteholder gives to the Indenture Trustee written notice of a continuing Indenture Event of Default;

(ii) The Noteholders of at least 25% in Note Balance of all then outstanding Notes make a written request to the Indenture Trustee to pursue the remedy;

(iii) Such Noteholder or Noteholders offer and, if requested, provide to the Indenture Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee against any loss, liability or expense related to such remedy;

(iv) The Indenture Trustee does not comply with the request within 45 days after receipt of the request and the offer and, if requested, the provision of indemnity; and

(v) During such 45-day period the Required Noteholders do not give the Indenture Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request.

A Noteholder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Noteholder or to obtain a preference or priority over another Noteholder.

Section 9.9. Unconditional Rights of Holders to Receive Payment; Withholding Taxes.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, except for clause (b) below, the right of any Holder of a Note to receive payment of principal and interest on the Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Note, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, is absolute and unconditional and shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the related Noteholder.

(b) The Indenture Trustee agrees, to the extent required by applicable law, to withhold from each payment due hereunder or under any Note, United States withholding taxes at the appropriate rate, and, on a timely basis, to deposit such amounts with an authorized depository and make such reports, filings and other reports in connection therewith, and in the manner, required under applicable law. The Indenture Trustee shall promptly furnish each Noteholder (but in no event later than the date 30 days after the due date thereof) a U.S. Treasury Form 1042S or appropriate Form 1099 (or similar forms as at any relevant time in effect), if applicable, indicating payment in full of any taxes withheld from any payments by the Indenture Trustee to such Persons together with all such other information and documents reasonably requested by such Noteholder and necessary or appropriate to enable such Noteholder to substantiate a claim for credit or deduction with respect thereto for income tax purposes of any jurisdiction with respect to which such Noteholder is required to file a tax return. Each Noteholder and Holder of a Trust Certificate that is a United States Person shall provide the Indenture Trustee with an IRS Form W-9 confirming that such person is not subject to back-up withholding. In the event that a Noteholder which is not a United States Person has furnished to the Indenture Trustee a properly completed and currently effective U.S. Treasury Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or such successor Form or Forms as may be required by the United States Treasury Department) during the calendar year in which the payment is made, or in either of the two preceding calendar years, claiming a reduced rate of, or exemption from, U.S. withholding tax under an income tax treaty, and has not notified the Indenture Trustee of the withdrawal or inaccuracy of such form prior to the date of each interest payment, only the amount, if any, required by applicable law shall be withheld from payments under the Notes held by such Noteholder in respect of United States federal income tax. In the event that a Noteholder (x) which is not a United States Person has furnished to the Indenture Trustee a properly completed and currently effective U.S. Treasury Form W-8ECI in duplicate (or such successor certificate or Form or Forms as may be required by the United States Treasury Department as necessary in order to avoid withholding of United States federal income tax), during the tax year of the Noteholder in which payment is made and has not notified the Indenture Trustee of the withdrawal or inaccuracy of such certificate or form prior to the date of each interest payment or (y) which is not a United States Person has furnished to the Indenture Trustee a properly completed and currently effective U.S. Treasury Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, during the calendar year in which the payment is made, or in either of the two preceding calendar years, no amount shall be withheld from payments under the Notes held by such Noteholder in respect of United States federal income tax. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if

any Noteholder has notified the Indenture Trustee that any of the foregoing forms or certificates is withdrawn or inaccurate, or if the Code or the regulations thereunder or the administrative interpretation thereof are at any time after the date hereof amended to require such withholding of United States federal income taxes from payments under the Notes held by such Noteholder, or if such withholding is otherwise required under applicable law, the Indenture Trustee agrees to withhold from each payment due to the relevant Noteholder withholding taxes at the appropriate rate under applicable law, and shall, as more fully provided above, on a timely basis, deposit such amounts with an authorized depository and make such reports, filings and other reports in connection therewith, and in the manner required under applicable law. The Indenture Trustee hereby agrees to use its commercially reasonable best efforts (without incurring liability for a failure to do so) to inform the affected Noteholder or Noteholders if the Indenture Trustee has failed to receive any of Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI, as applicable, from a Noteholder prior to the date of an interest payment to such Noteholder.

On the first day immediately after the conditions precedent to a REMIC Election (as described in Section 13.19(b)) are satisfied, the Indenture Trustee shall obtain an employee identification number on behalf of the Trust as a real estate mortgage investment conduit within the meaning of Code section 860D. The Indenture Trustee shall prepare 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 any such REMIC, containing such information and at the times and in the manner as may be required by the Code or state and local tax laws, regulations, or rules, and furnish or cause to be furnished to each Noteholder and to the Certificateholder the schedules, statements or information at such times and in such manner as may be required thereby.

Section 9.10. The Indenture Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

Subject to Section 13.16, the Indenture Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and counsel) allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer (or any other obligor upon the Notes), its creditors or its property, and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and counsel, and any other amounts due the Indenture Trustee under Section 10.6 out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, Notes and other properties which the Holders of the Notes may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Noteholder thereof, or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceeding.

Section 9.11. Priorities.

If the Indenture Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article, the Indenture Trustee shall distribute such money in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.1 or Section 9.6(d), as applicable of this Indenture.

Section 9.12. Undertaking for Costs.

In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as an Indenture Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of any undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This section does not apply to a suit by the Indenture Trustee, or a suit by a Noteholder pursuant to Section 9.7.

Section 9.13. Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee or to the Holders of Notes is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right or remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given under this Indenture or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 9.14. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Indenture Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Indenture Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article IX or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the Holders of Notes may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Holders of Notes, as the case may be.

ARTICLE X.

THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE

Section 10.1. Duties of the Indenture Trustee.

(a) If an Indenture Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and the Program Agreements, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall have no liability in connection with any action or inaction taken, or not taken, by it upon the deemed occurrence of an Indenture Event of Default of which a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee has not received written notice nor has actual knowledge.

(b) Except during the occurrence and continuance of an Indenture Event of Default:

(i) The Indenture Trustee undertakes to perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in this Indenture or the Program Agreements and no others, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Indenture Trustee; and

(ii) In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Indenture Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Indenture Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture or the Program Agreements, and the genuineness of signatures believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties without further inquiry into the person’s or persons’ authority. However, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee shall examine the certificates and opinions to determine whether or not they conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture or other applicable Program Agreement (but need not verify, confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein).

(c) The Indenture Trustee may not be relieved from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

(i) This clause does not limit the effect of clause (b) of this Section 10.1;

(ii) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by the Indenture Trustee, unless it is proved that the Indenture Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

(iv) The Indenture Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any default or event, including a Potential Indenture Event of Default, Indenture Event of Default, Repo Event of Default or Servicing Termination Event, under this Indenture or any other Program Agreement, unless a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee receives written notice of such default or event or has actual knowledge of such default or event.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Indenture or any of the Program Agreements, no provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or incur any liability financial or otherwise. The Indenture Trustee may refuse to perform any duty or exercise any right or power unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

(e) The Indenture Trustee shall not be under any obligation to take any action under this Indenture which may tend to involve it in any expense or liability, the payment of which within a reasonable time is not, in its reasonable discretion, assured to it by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, unless and until requested in writing to do so by the Holders and furnished, from time to time as it may require, with reasonable security and indemnity in form and substance acceptable to the Indenture Trustee.

(f) In the event that the Indenture Trustee and Note Registrar shall fail to perform any obligation, duty or agreement in the manner or on the day required to be performed by the Indenture Trustee and Note Registrar, as the case may be, under this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be obligated as soon as practicable upon written notice or actual knowledge of a Trust Officer of the Indenture Trustee thereof and receipt of appropriate records and information, if any, to perform such obligation, duty or agreement in the manner so required.

(g) Subject to Section 10.4, all moneys received by the Indenture Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purposes for which they were received, but need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law or the Program Agreements. The Indenture Trustee may allow and credit to the Issuer interest agreed upon in writing by the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee from time to time as may be permitted by law.

(h) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Indenture Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture Trustee will not prohibit any actions contemplated in this Indenture in the case of a REMIC Election and will reasonably cooperate with the Securities Intermediary in carrying out the events contemplated following a REMIC Election.

Section 10.2. Master Repurchase Agreement.

The Indenture Trustee shall take, perform or cause to be performed on behalf of the Issuer as Buyer all obligations of the Buyer under the Master Repurchase Agreement; it being understood that any obligations or duties of the Buyer related to the payment of fees, indemnities, purchase price, Repurchase Price, interest, principal or any other payment obligations of the Buyer under the Master Repurchase Agreement shall be made from and

limited to amounts on deposit in the Payment Account and the Buyer’s Account in accordance with the priorities of payment set forth therein and in this Indenture, and the Indenture Trustee shall have no other duty or obligation to satisfy such payment obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless a Repo Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall not be entitled to exercise the Buyer’s right to demand termination of the Master Repurchase Agreement unless an Indenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Required Noteholders shall have directed the Indenture Trustee to effect such termination. Any notice provided to the Buyer pursuant to Section 7(g) of Annex I to the Master Repurchase Agreement shall be made available by the Issuer on the 17g-5 Website and thereafter sent to the Rating Agency.

The Indenture Trustee shall not be required to investigate any fact or matter stated in any such documents.

(b) The Indenture Trustee may consult with counsel, accountants or other experts of its selection, and the advice of such counsel, accountants or other experts or any opinion of counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon.

(c) The Indenture Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers under this Indenture or perform any duties under this Indenture either directly or by or through agents or attorneys or a custodian or nominee; provided however, that the Indenture Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of, or for the supervision of, any such agent, attorney, custodian or nominee appointed by the Indenture Trustee with due care (i) with respect to the performance by such agent, attorney, custodian or nominee of ministerial duties of the Indenture Trustee, (ii) if the Issuer or Holders have directed the Indenture Trustee to appoint such agent, attorney, custodian or nominee, or (iii) upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Repo Event of Default or an Indenture Event of Default; provided further, that the Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for the execution or performance of any such duties or obligations of the Indenture Trustee by any of the original parties to the Program Agreements (other than the Indenture Trustee).

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for special, punitive, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Indenture Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

(h) Whenever in the administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Indenture Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be provided or established prior to taking or suffering any action to be taken hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Indenture Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by an Officer’s Certificate of the Issuer and delivered to the Indenture Trustee and such certificate, in the absence of negligence or bad faith on the part of the Indenture Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it under the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.

The Indenture Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or an Affiliate of the Issuer with the same rights it would have if it were not Indenture Trustee.

Section 10.8. Successor Indenture Trustee by Xxxxxx, etc.

Subject to Section 10.9, if the Indenture Trustee consolidates, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business to, another corporation or entity, the successor corporation or entity without any further act shall be the successor Indenture Trustee.

Section 10.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Indenture Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-Indenture Trustee or separate Indenture Trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor Indenture Trustee under Section 10.9 and no notice to Noteholders of the appointment of any co-Indenture Trustee or separate Indenture Trustee shall be required under Section 10.7.

(ii) All rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Indenture Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Indenture Trustee and such separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture Trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture Trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Indenture Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed, the Indenture 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 assets or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture Trustee, but solely at the direction of the Indenture Trustee; and

(iii) The Indenture Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture Trustee.

(c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate Indenture Trustees and co-Indenture Trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture Trustee shall refer to this Indenture and the conditions of this Article X. Each separate Indenture Trustee and co-Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Indenture, specifically including every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Indenture Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee.

(d) Any separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture Trustee may at any time constitute the Indenture 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 to this Indenture on its behalf and in its name. If any separate Indenture Trustee or co-Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor Indenture Trustee.

(e) In connection with the appointment of a co-Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee may, at any time, without notice to the Noteholders, delegate its duties under this Indenture to any Person who agrees to conduct such duties in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, that no such delegation shall relieve the Indenture Trustee of its obligations and responsibilities hereunder with respect to any such delegated duties.

(f) The Issuer agrees to pay to any separate trustee or co-trustee appointed hereunder reasonable compensation, and to reimburse such co-trustee or separate trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by it or them in accordance with any provision of this Indenture or any document executed in connection herewith except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or bad faith. In no event shall the Indenture Trustee be obligated to pay any fee or expense of any separate trustee or co-trustee.

(g) The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for any misconduct or negligence on the part of, or for the supervision of any co-Indenture Trustee or separate Indenture Trustee.

(iv) The Indenture Trustee meets the requirements of eligibility as an Indenture Trustee hereunder set forth in Section 10.9.

Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.3(c), the Indenture Trustee covenants and agrees that during the term of this Indenture it shall execute any trusts or powers hereunder or perform duties hereunder directly and not through any agents, bailees and nominees (other than as Custodian as provided in the Master Repurchase Agreement).

Section 10.12. The Issuer Indemnification of the Indenture Trustee.

The Issuer shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the Indenture Trustee, the Standby Servicer, the Custodian and each of their directors, officers, agents and employees (the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all loss, claim, liability, expense (including Extraordinary Expenses), including (i) the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of such agents, representatives, servicers, experts and counsel as the Indenture Trustee may reasonably employ in connection with the exercise and performance of its powers and duties in connection therewith, (ii) taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Indenture Trustee, the Standby Servicer or the Custodian) and (iii) damage or injury suffered or sustained, including reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred by each of the Indemnified

Parties in connection with enforcing the indemnification and other contractual obligations of the Issuer by reason of any acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions arising out of or in connection with the acceptance of the trusts hereunder or activities of the Indenture Trustee, the Standby Servicer or the Custodian pursuant to this Indenture or any Program Agreement, including but not limited to any judgment, award, settlement, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any actual or threatened action, proceeding or claim (whether asserted by the Seller, the Issuer or any other Person); provided, however, that the Issuer shall not indemnify the Indenture Trustee, the Standby Servicer or the Custodian or its directors, officers, employees or agents if such acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions constitute bad faith, negligence or willful misconduct by such Person (as agreed by the Indenture Trustee or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). The indemnity provided herein shall survive the termination of this Indenture and the resignation and removal of the Indenture Trustee, the Standby Servicer and the Custodian.

Section 10.13. [Reserved].

Section 10.14. The Securities Intermediary.

(a) There shall at all times be one or more Securities Intermediaries. The Issuer hereby appoints U.S. Bank National Association as the initial Securities Intermediary hereunder and U.S. Bank National Association accepts such appointment.

(b) The Securities Intermediary hereby represents and warrants and agrees with the Issuer and for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee as follows:

(i) The Indenture Trustee is a “securities intermediary,” as such term is defined in Section 8-102(a)(14)(B) of the New York UCC, that in the ordinary course of its business maintains “securities accounts” for others, as such term is used in Section 8-501 of the New York UCC;

(ii) Pursuant to Section 10.10, the “securities intermediary’s jurisdiction” as defined in the New York UCC shall be the State of New York; and

(iii) The Indenture Trustee is not a “clearing corporation”, as such term is defined in Section 8-102(a)(5) of the New York UCC.

Section 10.15. REMIC Administration.

(a) A REMIC Election shall be made on Form 1066 or other appropriate federal tax or information return for the taxable year ending after the conditions described in Section 13.19(b) are satisfied. The Notes shall be designated as the regular interests in the REMIC and the Trust Certificates shall be the residual interest in the REMIC.

(b) The Indenture Trustee shall represent the REMIC in any administrative or judicial proceeding relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority with respect thereto. The Issuer shall pay any and all tax related expenses (not including taxes) of the REMIC, including but not limited to any professional fees or expenses related to audits or any administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to the REMIC that involve the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities.

(c) The Indenture Trustee shall prepare, sign and file all of the REMIC’s federal and appropriate state tax and information returns as the REMIC’s direct representative. The expenses of preparing and filing such returns shall be borne by the Issuer. In preparing such returns, the Indenture Trustee shall use its standard assumptions regarding calculations, including but not limited to accrual periods and the timing of distributions.

(d) The Indenture Trustee shall be responsible on behalf of the REMIC for all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the responsibility of the REMIC under the Code or other compliance guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local taxing authority.

(e) The Indenture Trustee shall take any action or cause the REMIC to take any action necessary to maintain the status of the REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions. The Indenture Trustee shall not knowingly take any action, cause the REMIC 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 result in an Adverse REMIC Event unless the Indenture Trustee has received an opinion of counsel to the effect that the contemplated action will not endanger such status or result in the imposition of such a tax.

(f) The Issuer shall pay or cause each Holder of the Trust Certificates in the REMIC to pay when due any and all taxes imposed on the REMIC by federal or state governmental authorities. To the extent that such taxes are not paid by a Holder of the Trust Certificates, the Indenture Trustee shall pay any remaining REMIC taxes out of current or future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of the Trust Certificates or, if no such amounts are available, out of other amounts held in the account holding the collections from the Mortgage Loans, and shall reduce amounts otherwise payable to holders of regular interests in the REMIC.

(g) The books and records of the REMIC shall be maintained on a calendar year and on an accrual basis.

(h) The holder of a majority interest of the Trust Certificates shall act as “tax matters person” with respect to the REMIC, and the Indenture Trustee shall act as agent for such holder in such role, unless and until another party is so designated by such holder.

(i) In performing the services with respect to the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall follow such procedures as it would employ in its good faith business judgment and which are normal and customary in its administration of REMICs. The relationship of the Indenture Trustee (and of any successor to the Indenture Trustee as administrator under this Indenture) to the Issuer under this Indenture is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent.

For the avoidance of doubt, a REMIC Election shall only be made if the conditions of Section 13.19(b) have been satisfied.

ARTICLE XI.

Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to applicable laws with respect to escheat of funds, any money held by the Indenture Trustee in trust for the payment of any amount due with respect to any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such amount has become due and payable shall be discharged from such trust and be paid to the Issuer on Issuer Request; and the Holder of such Note shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Issuer for payment thereof (but only to the extent of the amounts so paid to the Issuer), and all liability of the Indenture Trustee with respect to such trust money shall thereupon cease; provided, that the Indenture Trustee, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuer cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in New York City and London, if applicable, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer.

The provisions of this Section 11.4 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Indenture.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the purpose of any amendment is to add or eliminate any provisions relating to a REMIC Election, then notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in Section 12.1 or Section 12.2, such amendment shall not require the consent of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders.

Section 12.3. Opinions of Counsel.

In executing any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article XII or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to receive and shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon, an Opinion of

Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture and all conditions precedent to such supplemental indenture have been satisfied. The effectiveness of any amendment, modification or supplement to the Indenture, shall also be conditioned upon the delivery of a Tax Opinion to the Rating Agency and the Indenture Trustee.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment, modification or supplement that would extend the due date for, reduce the amount of any scheduled repayment of any Note (or reduce the principal amount of or rate of interest on any Note) or change the definition of Eligible Mortgage Loan or Eligible Asset requires the consent of each affected Noteholder.

The Administrator shall give the Rating Agency ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice of any amendment, waiver, supplement or modification to this Indenture or any other Program Agreement, and a copy of such proposed amendment, waiver, supplement or modification in substantially final form no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the effectiveness thereof. The costs and expenses associated with any amendment, modification or supplement to this Indenture shall be borne by the party requesting such amendment, modification or supplement.

Section 12.4. Revocation and Effect of Consents.

Until an amendment or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Noteholder or subsequent Noteholder may revoke the consent as to his Note or portion of a Note if the Indenture Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the amendment or waiver becomes effective. An amendment or waiver becomes effective in accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Noteholder. The Issuer may fix a record date for determining which Noteholders must consent to such amendment or waiver.

Section 12.5. Notation on or Exchange of Notes.

The Indenture Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment or waiver on any Note thereafter authenticated. The Issuer in exchange for all Notes may issue and the Indenture Trustee shall authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment or waiver. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall not affect the validity and effect of such amendment or waiver.

Section 12.6. The Indenture Trustee to Sign Amendments; Miscellaneous, etc.

The Indenture Trustee shall sign any amendment authorized pursuant to this Article 12 if the amendment does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Indenture Trustee. If it does, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, sign it. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that this Indenture shall not be amended by the parties hereto if such amendment would have a material adverse effect on the rights or privileges of the Mortgage Loan Custodian (as determined by the Mortgage Loan Custodian) without the prior written consent of the Mortgage Loan Custodian, which is an intended third party beneficiary hereunder in such respect.

or at such other address or facsimile number as may be designated in writing by such intended party to the party giving such notice. Any such instruction, notice, request, demand and other communications shall be deemed given (i) if personally delivered, when received, (ii) if sent by certified mail overnight delivery, when received, and (iii) if transmitted by facsimile, when sent, receipt confirmed by telephone or electronic means; provided, however, any notice pursuant to Section 11.1 shall be deemed given only when received.

Notwithstanding any provisions of this Indenture to the contrary, the Indenture Trustee shall have no liability based upon or arising from the failure to receive any notice required by or relating to this Indenture or the Notes.

If the Issuer mails a notice or communication to Noteholders, it shall mail a copy to the Indenture Trustee at the same time.

(b) Where this Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if sent in writing and mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Noteholder affected by such event, at its address as it appears in the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed (if any) for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Noteholder is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders, and any notice which is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

In the case by reason of the suspension of regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made that is satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose hereunder.

Section 13.2. Communication by Noteholders with Other Noteholders.

Noteholders may communicate with other Noteholders with respect to their rights under this Indenture or the Notes.

Section 13.3. Certificate as to Conditions Precedent.

Upon any request or application by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee to take any action under this Indenture, the Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee (which shall include the statements set forth in Section 13.4) stating that, in the opinion of the signers, all conditions precedent and covenants, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with.

Section 13.4. Statements Required in Certificate.

Each certificate with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:

(a) a statement that the Person giving such certificate has read such covenant or condition;

100

(b) a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements contained in such certificate are based;

(c) a statement that, in the opinion of such Person, he has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable him to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with; and

(d) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such Person, such condition or covenant has been complied with.

The Indenture Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by or at a meeting of Noteholders.

Section 13.6. No Recourse Against Others.

An Authorized Officer, employee or Holder of any securities of the Issuer, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer under the Notes or this Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Noteholder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability.

Section 13.7. Duplicate Originals.

The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. One signed copy is enough to prove this Indenture.

Section 13.8. Benefits of Indenture.

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes, expressed or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors hereunder and the Holders of Notes, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

Section 13.9. Payment on Business Day.

In any case where any Payment Date, redemption date or maturity date of any Note shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any), as the case may be, need not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Payment Date, redemption date, or maturity date; provided, that no interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Payment Date, redemption date, or maturity date, as the case may be.

Section 13.10. Governing Law.

The laws of the State of New York, including, without limitation, the UCC and Section 5-1401 and 1402 of the General Obligations Law, but excluding any other conflicts of laws principles, shall govern and be used to construe this Indenture and the Notes and the rights and duties of the Issuer, Indenture Trustee, Note Registrar, Securities Intermediary, Note Calculation Agent, Noteholders and Note Owners.

101

Section 13.11. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right that it may have to a trial by jury in respect to any legal action or proceeding relating to this Indenture.

Section 13.12. Successors.

All agreements of the Issuer in this Indenture and the Notes shall bind its successor; provided, that the Issuer may not assign its obligations or rights under this Indenture or any Program Agreement. All agreements of the Indenture Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successor.

Section 13.13. Severability.

In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 13.14. Counterpart Originals.

The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an original, but all of them together represent the same agreement.

Section 13.15. Table of Contents, Headings, etc.

The Table of Contents and headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part hereof, and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

Section 13.16. No Bankruptcy Petition Against the Issuer.

Each of the Noteholders, by its acceptance of an interest in a Note, will be deemed to covenant and agree, and each of the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee hereby covenants and agrees that, prior to the date which is one year and one day (or if longer, the applicable preference period then in effect) after the payment in full of the latest maturing Note, it will not institute against, or join with any other Person in instituting, against the Issuer any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings, under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law; provided, that nothing in this Section 13.16 shall constitute a waiver of any right to indemnification, reimbursement or other payment from the Issuer pursuant to this Indenture. In the event that any such Noteholder or the Indenture Trustee takes action in violation of this Section 13.16, the Issuer shall file an answer with the bankruptcy court or otherwise properly contesting the filing of such a petition by any such Noteholder or the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or the commencement of such action and raising the defense that such Noteholder or the Indenture Trustee has agreed in writing not to take such action and should be estopped and precluded therefrom and such other defenses, if any, as its counsel advises that it may assert. The provisions of this Section 13.16 shall survive the termination of this Indenture, and the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee.

102

Section 13.17. No Recourse.

The obligations of the Issuer under this Indenture are solely the obligations of the Issuer. No recourse shall be had for the payment of any amount owing in respect of any fee hereunder or any other obligation or claim arising out of or based upon this Indenture or any other Program Agreement against any employee, officer, trustee, settlor, Affiliate, agent or servant of the Issuer. Fees, expenses or costs payable by the Issuer hereunder shall be payable by the Issuer only on a Payment Date and only to the extent that funds are then available or thereafter become available for such purpose pursuant to Article VI. This Section 13.17 shall survive the termination of this Indenture.

Section 13.18. Liability of Owner Trustee.

It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that (i) this Indenture is executed and delivered by Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB (“Wilmington Savings”), not individually or personally but solely as owner trustee of the Issuer (in such capacity, the “Owner Trustee”), in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it, pursuant to the Trust Agreement, (ii) each of the representations, undertakings and agreements herein made on the part of the Issuer is made and intended not as personal representations, undertakings and agreements by Wilmington Savings but is made and intended for the purpose of binding only, and is binding only on, the Issuer, (iii) nothing herein contained shall be construed as creating any liability on Wilmington Savings, individually or personally, to perform any covenant either expressed or implied contained herein, all such liability, if any, being expressly waived by the parties hereto and by any Person claiming by, through or under the parties hereto, (iv) Wilmington Savings has made and will make no investigation into the accuracy or completeness of any representations or warranties made by the Issuer in this Indenture and (v) under no circumstances shall Wilmington Savings be personally liable for the payment of any indebtedness, indemnities or expenses of the Issuer or be liable for the performance, breach or failure of any obligation, representation, warranty or covenant made or undertaken by the Issuer hereunder or any other related documents, as to all of which recourse shall be had solely to the assets of the Issuer.

Section 13.19. REMIC Election

(a) It is the intention of all parties to this Indenture that upon the occurrence of a REMIC Election, that:

(i) the Issuer will make one or more REMIC elections (within the meaning of Code section 860D(b)) with respect to the segregated pool of assets that constitute “qualified mortgages” (within the meaning of Code section 860G(a)(3));

(ii) any Classes of Notes that are outstanding at the time of such REMIC election shall be designated as “REMIC regular interests” (within the meaning of Code section 860G(a)(1)); and

(iii) the Trust Certificates shall be designated as the sole class of “residual interests” (within the meaning of Code section 860G(a)(2)).

103

(b) Prior to a REMIC Election, the following conditions must be satisfied:

(i) either (a) an Indenture Event of Default or (b) a Repo Trigger Event shall have occurred,

(ii) more than one Class of Notes (in a senior/subordinate relationship to one another) and the Trust Certificate shall remain outstanding for U.S. federal income tax purposes,

(iii) 5 months shall have lapsed since the Indenture Event of Default or Repo Trigger Event described in (i) above,

6. The Issuer has received all consents and approvals required by the terms of the Collateral that constitute accounts, general intangibles, instruments or Security Entitlements to grant to the Indenture Trustee a security interest in all of its interest and rights in such Collateral hereunder.

S-I-1

Perfection

7. The Issuer has caused or will have caused, within ten days after the effective date of this Indenture, the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the security interest in the Collateral (which may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement) granted by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee (for the benefit of the Noteholders) hereunder; the Indenture Trustee has or shall at the time of acquisition by the Issuer have in its possession all original copies of the security certificates that constitute or evidence the Collateral that are certificated securities; all financing statements filed or to be filed against the Issuer in favor of the Indenture Trustee in connection herewith describing the Collateral shall describe such Collateral and contain a statement that: “A purchase of or acquisition of a security interest in any collateral described in this financing statement will violate the rights of the Indenture Trustee.”

10. With respect to the Buyer’s Account, the Payment Account, any other account established pursuant to the Program Agreements, and all subaccounts thereof, to the extent any of the foregoing constitute securities accounts or Security Entitlements, the Issuer has caused or will have caused, within ten days after the effective date of this Indenture, the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the security interest granted in such Collateral to the Indenture Trustee; and the Issuer has delivered to the Indenture Trustee a fully executed agreement pursuant to which the securities intermediary has agreed to comply with all instructions originated by the Indenture Trustee relating to such accounts without further consent by the Issuer.

S-I-2

Priority

12. Other than the transfer of the Purchased Assets to the Issuer under the Master Repurchase Agreement, the security interest granted to the Issuer pursuant to the Master Repurchase Agreement, the security interest granted to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture and the Owner Trustee Lien, none of the Seller or the Issuer has pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Purchased Assets or Collateral, as applicable, or the Buyer’s Account, the Payment Account, any other account established pursuant to the Program Agreements, or any subaccount thereof. None of the Seller or the Issuer has authorized the filing of, or is aware of any financing statements against the Seller or the Issuer that include a description of collateral covering the Purchased Assets or the Collateral, as applicable, or the Buyer’s Account, the Payment Account, any other account established pursuant to the Program Agreements, or any subaccount thereof, other than any financing statement relating to the security interest granted to the Indenture Trustee hereunder, the security interest granted to the Issuer under the Master Repurchase Agreement or that has been terminated.

13. Neither the Issuer nor the Seller is aware of any judgment, ERISA or tax lien filings against either the Seller or the Issuer.

14. None of the instruments or certificated securities that constitute or evidence the Collateral has any marks or notations indicating that they have been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Indenture Trustee hereunder or to the Issuer pursuant to the Master Repurchase Agreement.

15. None of the Buyer’s Account, the Payment Account, any other accounts established pursuant to the Program Agreements (other than accounts established under the Intercreditor Documents), or any subaccount thereof, to the extent any of the foregoing constitute securities accounts, are in the name of any person other than the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer has not consented to the securities intermediary of any accounts that constitute securities accounts to comply with entitlement orders of any person other than the Indenture Trustee.

16. None of the Buyer’s Account, the Payment Account, any other accounts established pursuant to the Program Agreements (other than accounts established under the Intercreditor Documents), or any subaccount thereof, to the extent any of the foregoing constitute deposit accounts, are in the name of any persons other than the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee. The Issuer has not consented to the bank maintaining any such account that constitutes a deposit account to comply with instructions of any person other than the Indenture Trustee.

17. Survival of Perfection Representations. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Master Repurchase Agreement and the Indenture or any other Program Agreement, the Perfection Representations contained in this Schedule I shall be continuing, and remain in full force and effect (notwithstanding any termination of the Program Agreements or any replacement of the Servicer or termination of the Servicer’s rights to act as such) until such time as all obligations under the Indenture have been finally and fully paid and performed.

18. No Waiver. The parties to the Indenture: (i) shall not, without obtaining a confirmation of the then-current rating of all outstanding Classes of Notes, waive any of the Perfection Representations; and (ii) shall provide the Rating Agency with prompt written notice of any breach of the Perfection Representations, and shall not, without obtaining a confirmation of the then-current rating of all outstanding Classes of Notes (as determined after any adjustment or withdrawal of the ratings following notice of such breach) waive a breach of any of the Perfection Representations.

The Servicer and the Standby Servicer are permitted to perform any of its servicing duties and obligations through one or more subservicers, agents or delegates, which may be Affiliates of the Servicer or Standby Servicer, as applicable. Notwithstanding any such arrangement, the Servicer or Standby Servicer, as applicable, shall remain liable and obligated to the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders for the Servicer’s duties and obligations under this Indenture, without any diminution of such duties and obligations and as if the Servicer itself were performing such duties and obligations.

2. Indemnity

The Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Standby Servicer (so long as the Standby Servicer is not the Servicer), the Custodian, the Administrator and the Indenture Trustee (the “Servicer Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all loss, claim, liability, expense, including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of such agents, representatives, servicers, experts and counsel as the Servicer Indemnified Parties may reasonably employ in connection with the exercise and performance of their powers and duties in connection therewith including taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Servicer Indemnified Parties), damage or injury suffered or sustained, including reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with enforcing the indemnification and other contractual obligations of the Servicer by reason of any acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions arising out of or in connection with the acceptance of the trusts or activities hereunder or any Program Agreement, including but not limited to any judgment, award, settlement, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any actual or threatened action, proceeding or claim (whether asserted by the Seller, the Servicer or any other Person); provided, however, that the Servicer shall not indemnify the aforementioned parties, or their directors, officers, employees or agents if such acts, omissions or alleged acts or omissions constitute bad faith, negligence (gross negligence in the case of the Owner Trustee) or willful misconduct by such Person (as agreed to by the applicable Servicer Indemnified Party or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). This provision shall survive the termination of this Indenture and the resignation and removal of the Servicer.

3. Advances

In the course of performing its servicing obligations, the Servicer shall pay all reasonable and customary “out-of-pocket” costs and expenses incurred in the performance of its servicing obligations, including, but not limited to, the cost of (i) the preservation, restoration and protection of the mortgaged properties, (ii) any enforcement or judicial proceedings, including foreclosures, (iii) the management and liquidation of mortgaged properties acquired in satisfaction of the related mortgage, (iv) tax payments, insurance premiums, and other charges, and (v) obtaining broker price opinions (each such expenditure a “Servicing Advance”).

S-I-4

The Servicing Advances shall be made only to the extent they are deemed by the Servicer to be recoverable from related late collections, insurance proceeds or liquidation proceeds. The Servicer’s right to reimbursement for Servicing Advances will be limited to late collections on the related mortgage loan, including liquidation proceeds, released mortgaged property proceeds, insurance proceeds and such other amounts as may be collected by the Servicer from the related mortgagor or otherwise relating to the mortgage loan in respect of which such unreimbursed amounts are owed, unless such amounts are deemed to be nonrecoverable by the Servicer, in which event reimbursement will be made to the Servicer from general funds in the Payment Account prior to any payments on the Notes.

4. Request for Release of Documents

From time to time and as appropriate for the foreclosure or servicing of any of the Mortgage Loans, the Mortgage Loan Custodian is authorized pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Custodial Agreement, upon written receipt from Servicer of a request for release of documents and receipt to release to Servicer the related Mortgage File or the documents set forth in such request and receipt to Servicer. Servicer promptly shall return to the Mortgage Loan Custodian the Mortgage File or other such documents when the Servicer’s need therefor no longer exists, unless the related Mortgage Loan shall be liquidated, in which case, the Servicer shall deliver an additional request for release of documents and receipt certifying such liquidation from the Servicer to the Mortgage Loan Custodian, and the related documents shall be released by the Mortgage Loan Custodian to the Servicer pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Custodial Agreement.

5. Transfer of Servicing

In the event a Servicing Termination Event occurs, the Servicer agrees at its sole expense to take all reasonable and customary actions, to assist the Issuer, Indenture Trustee, Custodian and Standby Servicer in effectuating and evidencing transfer of servicing to Standby Servicer in compliance with applicable law on or before 45 days following the occurrence of a Servicing Termination Event (the “Servicing Transfer Date”), including:

(a) Notice to Mortgagors. The Servicer shall mail to the mortgagor of each Purchased Mortgage Loan, by such date as may be required by law, a letter advising the mortgagor of the transfer of the servicing thereof to a Trust Officer of the Standby Servicer. The Servicer shall promptly provide a Trust Officer of the Standby Servicer with copies of all such letters. The Indenture Trustee shall cause the Standby Servicer to mail a letter to each such mortgagor advising such mortgagor that the Standby Servicer is the new servicer of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan. Such letter shall be mailed by such date as may be required by applicable law.

(b) Notice to Taxing Authorities, Insurance Companies and HUD (if applicable). The Servicer shall transmit or cause to be transmitted to the applicable taxing authorities and insurance companies (including primary mortgage insurers, if applicable) and/or agents, not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the Servicing Transfer Date, written notification of the transfer of the servicing to the Standby Servicer and instructions to deliver all notices, tax bills and insurance statements, as the case may be, to the Standby Servicer from and after the Servicing Transfer Date. The Servicer shall promptly provide a Trust Officer of the Standby Servicer with copies of all such notices.

S-I-5

(c) Assignment and Endorsements. The Servicer shall, at its own cost and expense, prepare and/or complete endorsements to Mortgage Notes and assignments of Mortgages (including any interim endorsements or assignments) prior to the Servicing Transfer Date.

(d) Delivery of Servicing Records. The Servicer shall forward to the Standby Servicer, not more than ten (10) days after the Servicing Transfer Date, all Asset Tapes related to the Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to transfer, Servicing Records, Mortgage Loan Files and any other Mortgage Loan Documents in the Servicer’s (or any subservicer’s) possession relating to each Purchased Mortgage Loan.

(e) Escrow Payments. The Servicer shall provide the Standby Servicer on or before the Servicing Transfer Date with immediately available funds by wire transfer in the amount of the net Escrow Payments and suspense balances and all loss draft balances associated with the Purchased Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall provide the Standby Servicer on or before the Servicing Transfer Date with an accounting statement of Escrow Payments and suspense balances and loss draft balances sufficient to enable the Standby Servicer to reconcile the amount of such payment with the accounts of the Purchased Mortgage Loans. Additionally, the Servicer shall wire to the Standby Servicer on or before the Servicing Transfer Date the amount of any agency, trustee or prepaid Purchased Mortgage Loan payments and all other similar amounts held by the Servicer (or any subservicer).

(f) Payoffs and Assumptions. The Servicer shall provide to the Standby Servicer, on or before the Servicing Transfer Date, copies of all assumption and payoff statements generated by the Servicer (or any subservicer), on the Purchased Mortgage Loans.

(g) Mortgage Payments Received Prior to Servicing Transfer Date. The Servicer shall forward by wire transfer, on or before the Servicing Transfer Date, all payments received by the Servicer (or any subservicer) on each Purchased Mortgage Loan prior to the Servicing Transfer Date to the Indenture Trustee.

(h) Mortgage Payments Received After Servicing Transfer Date. The Servicer shall forward the amount of any monthly payments received by the Servicer (or any subservicer) after the Servicing Transfer Date to the Standby Servicer by overnight mail on the date of receipt. The Servicer shall notify the Standby Servicer of the particulars of the payment, which notification requirement shall be satisfied (except with respect to Purchased Mortgage Loans then in foreclosure or bankruptcy) if the Servicer (or any subservicer) forwards with its payments sufficient information to the Standby Servicer. The Servicer shall assume full responsibility for the necessary and appropriate legal application of monthly payments received by the Servicer (or any subservicer) after the Servicing Transfer Date with respect to Purchased Mortgage Loans then in foreclosure or bankruptcy; provided, however, necessary and appropriate legal application of such monthly payments shall include, but not be limited to, endorsement of a Purchased Mortgage Loan monthly payment to the Standby Servicer with the particulars of the payment such as the account number, dollar amount, date received and any special mortgage application instructions.

S-I-6

(i) Reconciliation. Not less than five (5) days prior to the Servicing Transfer Date, the Servicer shall reconcile principal balances and make any monetary adjustments reasonably required by the Standby Servicer. Any such monetary adjustments will be transferred between the Servicer and Standby Servicer, as appropriate.

(j) IRS Forms. The Servicer shall timely file all IRS forms which are required to be filed in relation to the servicing and ownership of the Purchased Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall provide copies of such forms to the Standby Servicer upon request and shall reimburse the Standby Servicer for any costs or penalties incurred by the Standby Servicer due to the Servicer’s failure to comply with this paragraph.

(k) Boarding Fee. Together with the delivery of Servicing Records, the Servicer shall remit to the Standby Servicer a boarding fee equal to the greater of (i) Fifteen Dollars ($15) per loan for which the Servicing Records are to be delivered and (ii) Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000).
