Certificate Interest Rate on the Class 3-M-2-L, Class 3-M-3-L,
Class
3-M-4-L, Class 3-B-1-L and Class 3-B-2-L Regular Interests shall
equal (a)
for each Distribution Date on or before the Group 3 Clean-Up Call
Option

Date
and (ii) 6.350% and (b) for each Distribution Date after the
Group 3 Clean-Up Call Option Date, the lesser of (i) the Group
3 Net WAC
Cap for such Distribution Date and
(ii) 6.850%.
|
(15)
|
On
each Distribution Date, the Class 3-C-L Principal Balance shall
equal the
Overcollateralization Amount for such Distribution Date. The Class
3-C-L
Regular Interest shall be entitled to receive distributions pursuant
to
clauses (III)(d)(ix) and (III)(d)(x) of the definition of REMIC
IV
Distribution Amount.
|
For
REMIC purposes, the Class 3-C-L Regular Interest is comprised of
two REMIC
IV Regular Interests: Class 3-C-L-PO, a principal only regular
interest,
and Class 3-C-L IO, an interest only regular interest. Class 3-C-L-PO
has
a principal balance equal to the initial principal balance of
$4,187,385.65 as reduced from time to time by distributions on
the Class
3-C-L Regular Interest allocated in reduction thereof pursuant
to the
further provisions of this footnote (15). Class 3-C-L-PO has not
entitlement to interest. Class 3-C-L-IO has no entitlement to principal
except to the extent of accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Interest
shall accrue on Class 3-C-L-IO for each Distribution Date in an
amount
equal to the sum of the amounts calculated pursuant to clauses
(1) through
(4) below:
|
9
1. |
one
month’s interest at a rate equal to the Certificate Interest Rate for
the
Class LT1 Regular Interest minus the related Marker Rate, applied
to a
notional amount equal to the Class Principal Balance of the Class
LT1
Regular Interest;
|
2. |
one
month’s interest at a rate equal to the Certificate Interest Rate for
the
Class LT2 Regular Interest minus the related Marker Rate, applied
to a
notional amount equal to the Class Principal Balance of the Class
LT2
Regular Interest;
|
3. |
one
month’s interest at a rate equal to the Certificate Interest Rate for
the
Class LT4 Regular Interest minus twice the related Marker Rate,
applied to
a notional amount equal to the Class Principal Balance of the Class
LT4
Regular Interest; and
|
4. |
one
month’s interest at a rate equal to the excess, if any, of the Certificate
Interest Rate for the Class LTC-III Regular Interest over 6.500%
per
annum, applied to a notional amount equal to the Class Principal
Balance
of the Class LTC-III Regular
Interest.
|
Payments
of Excess Cash flow to Classes of REMIC IV Regular Interests other
than
the Class 3-C-L Regular Interest, to the extent that they are made
pursuant to clauses (III)(d)(i) or (III)(d)(viii) of the definition
of
“REMIC IV Distribution Amount” in respect of Realized Losses, shall be
treated as Realized Losses that reduce the interest accrued on
Class
3-C-L-IO for the current Distribution Date. Payments of Excess
Cash Flow
to the Class 3-C-L Regular Interest pursuant to the provisions
of clause
(III)(d) of the definition of “REMIC IV Distribution Amount” shall be
treated as applied, first, in payment of any remaining accrued
interest on
Class 3-C-L-IO for the current Distribution Date, second, as a
payment of
accrued and unpaid interest on Class 3-C-L-IO for prior Distribution
Dates
and, third, as a payment of principal on Class
3-C-L-PO.
|
(16)
|
For
any Distribution Date, interest distributable to the Group 3 Certificates
(other than the Class 3-C Certificates) may not equal interest
accrued at
the Certificate Interest Rates for the Corresponding Classes of
REMIC IV
Regular Interests. For any Distribution Date, interest may be
distributable to some Classes of Group 3 Certificates (other than
the
Class 3-C Certificates) in an amount greater than interest accrued
at the
Certificate Interest Rate for the Corresponding Class of REMIC
IV Regular
Interests, and interest may be distributable to the Class 3-C Certificates
in an amount less than interest accrued at the Certificate Interest
Rate
for the Corresponding Class of REMIC IV Regular Interests, in each
case
pursuant to the second paragraph of Section
4.05(a).
|
(17) |
The
Class R-4 Residual Interest shall be entitled to receive the applicable
Residual Distribution Amount. The Class R-4 Residual Interest shall
not be
entitled to receive any distributions of interest or
principal.
|
As
provided herein, with respect to REMIC IV, the Servicer will cause an election
to be made on behalf of REMIC IV to be treated for federal income tax purposes
as a REMIC. The REMIC IV Regular Interests will be designated regular interests
in REMIC IV, and the Class R-4 Residual Interest will be designated the sole
class of residual interest in REMIC IV, for purposes of the REMIC
Provisions.
In
addition, the Trust will issue the Class R Certificates, which will represent
ownership of the Class R-1, Class R-2, Class R-3 and Class R-4 Residual
Interests.
In
addition, the Trust will issue (i) the Group 3 Certificates (other than the
Class 3-C Certificates), each of which Class will represent ownership of (x)
the
Corresponding Class of REMIC IV Regular Interests and (y) the applicable rights
specified in the second paragraph of Section 4.05(a), (ii) the Class 3-C
Certificates, which will represent ownership of (x) the Corresponding Class
of
REMIC IV Regular Interests and (y) the obligations specified in the second
paragraph of Section 4.05(a), (iii) the Class C-PPP Certificates, which will
represent ownership of the rights specified in the third paragraph of Section
4.05(a), and (iv) the Class 3-PPP Certificates, which will represent ownership

security interest in the Mortgage Pool Assets by the Company to the Trust to
secure a debt or other obligation of the Company. However, in the event that,
notwithstanding the intent of the parties, the Mortgage Pool Assets are held
to
be the property of the Company, or if for any other reason this Agreement is
held or deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Pool Assets,
then
(a) this
Agreement shall constitute a security agreement;
(b) the
conveyance provided for in this Section 2.04 shall be deemed to be a grant
by
the Company to the Trust of, and the Company hereby grants to the Trust, to
secure all of the Company’s obligations hereunder, a security interest in all of
the Company’s right, title, and interest, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired, in and to:
(I) The
Mortgage Pool Assets;
(II) All
accounts, chattel paper, deposit accounts, documents, general intangibles,
goods, instruments, investment property, letter-of-credit rights, letters of
credit, money, and oil, gas, and other minerals, consisting of, arising from,
or
relating to, any of the foregoing; and
(III) All
proceeds of the foregoing.
The
Company shall file such financing statements, and the Company, the Servicer
and
the Trustee acting on behalf of the Trust at the direction of the Company shall,
to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such other actions as may
be
necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were found to create a security
interest in the Mortgage Pool Assets, such security interest would be a
perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will
be
maintained as such throughout the term of the Agreement. In connection herewith,
the Trust shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under
the
Uniform Commercial Code as in force in the relevant jurisdiction.

statement relating to a Cooperative Loan.
The
Trustee is authorized, with the Servicer’s consent, to appoint on behalf of the
Trust any bank or trust company approved by each of the Company and the Servicer
as Custodian of the documents or instruments referred to in this Section 2.05,
in Section 2.12 or in Section 2.15, and to enter into a Custodial Agreement
for
such purpose; provided,
however, that
the
Trustee shall be and remain liable for the acts and omissions of any such
Custodian to the extent (and only to the extent) that it would have been liable
for such acts and omissions hereunder had such acts and omissions been its
own
acts and omissions. Any documents delivered by the Company or the Servicer
to
the Custodian, if any, shall be deemed to have been delivered to the Trustee
for
all purposes hereunder; and any documents held by the Custodian, if any, shall
be deemed to be held by the Trustee for all purposes hereunder. There shall
be a
written Custodial Agreement between the Trustee and each Custodian. Each
Custodial Agreement shall contain an acknowledgment by the Custodian that all
Mortgage Pool Assets, Mortgage Files, and other documents and property held
by
it at any time are held by it for the benefit of the Trust. Each Custodial
Agreement shall, if such reports are required to be filed with the Commission
as
an exhibit to a Report on Form 10-K, require the Custodian, (i) if determined
by
the Servicer to be a party participating in the servicing function within the
meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, to deliver to the Servicer the report
on
assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria and the accounting
firm’s attestation report described in Section 3.13(c) and (ii) if determined by
the Servicer to meet the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i) through (iii) of
Regulation AB, to deliver to the Servicer the statement of compliance described
in Section 3.13(e). Pursuant to the Initial Custodial Agreement, the Initial
Custodian shall perform responsibilities of the Trustee on the Trustee’s behalf
with respect to the delivery, receipt, examination, custody and release of
the
Mortgage Files related to the Mortgage Loans identified in the Initial Custodial
Agreement, as provided therein. The Trustee shall not have any responsibility
for the acts or omissions of the Initial Custodian or any successor thereto
(other than the Trustee); provided,
however, that
nothing herein shall relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent
action, its own negligent failure to act or its willful misconduct.
90
On
or
promptly after the Closing Date, the Servicer shall cause the MERS® System to
indicate that each MERS Loan, if any, has been assigned to the Trustee or to
the
Trust, by including in the MERS® System computer files (a) the code necessary to
identify the Trustee and (b) the code necessary to identify the series of the
Certificates issued in connection with such Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall
not alter the codes referenced in this paragraph with respect to any MERS Loan
during the term of this Agreement except in connection with an assignment of
such MERS Loan or de-registration thereof from the MERS® System in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement.
Section
2.06. REMIC
Elections for REMIC I and REMIC II.
The
Servicer shall, on behalf of each of REMIC I and REMIC II, elect to treat such
REMIC I or REMIC II as a REMIC within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code
and, if necessary, under applicable state laws. Such election shall be included
in the Form 1066 and any appropriate state return to be filed on behalf of
each
of REMIC I and REMIC II for its first taxable year.
The
Closing Date is hereby designated as the “startup day” of each of REMIC I and
REMIC II within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.
The
regular interests (as set forth in the table contained in the Preliminary
Statement hereto) relating to REMIC I are hereby designated as “regular
interests” in REMIC I for purposes of Section 860G(a)(1) of the Code. The Class
R-1 Residual Interest is hereby designated as the sole class of “residual
interest” in REMIC I for purposes of Section 860G(a)(2) of the Code. The regular
interests (as set forth in the table contained in the Preliminary Statement
hereto) relating to REMIC II are hereby designated as “regular interests” in
REMIC II for purposes of Section 860G(a)(1) of the Code. The Class R-2 Residual
Interest is hereby designated as the sole class of “residual interest” in REMIC
II for purposes of Section 860G(a)(2) of the Code.
The
parties intend that the affairs of each of REMIC I and REMIC II shall
constitute, and that the affairs of each of REMIC I and REMIC II shall be
conducted so as to qualify each of REMIC I and REMIC II as a REMIC. In
furtherance of such intention, the Servicer shall, on behalf of each of REMIC
I
and REMIC II: (a) prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, a federal
tax return using a calendar year as the taxable year and using an accrual method
of accounting for such REMIC when and as required by the REMIC Provisions and
other applicable federal income tax laws; (b) make an election, on behalf of
the
trust, for each of REMIC I and REMIC II to be treated as a REMIC on the federal
tax return of such REMIC I or REMIC II for its first taxable year, in accordance
with the REMIC Provisions; (c) prepare and forward, or cause to be prepared
and
forwarded, to the Holders of the REMIC I and REMIC II Regular Interests and
the
Class R-1 and Class R-2 Residual Interests and the Trustee, all information
reports as and when required to be provided to them in accordance with the
REMIC
Provisions, and make available the information necessary for the application
of
Section 860E(e) of the Code; (d) conduct the affairs of REMIC I at all times
that any REMIC I Regular Interests are outstanding so as to maintain the status
of REMIC I as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions, and conduct the affairs of
REMIC II at all times that any REMIC II Regular Interests are outstanding so
as
to maintain the status of REMIC II as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions; (e)
not knowingly or intentionally take any action or omit to take any action that
would cause the termination of the REMIC status of either REMIC I or REMIC
II;
and (f) pay the amount of any federal prohibited transaction penalty taxes
imposed on REMIC I or REMIC II when and as the same shall be due and payable
(but such obligation shall not prevent the Servicer from contesting any such
tax
in appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the Servicer from withholding
payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such
proceedings).
91
The
Company and the Trustee shall promptly provide the Servicer with such
information in the possession of the Company or the Trustee, respectively,
as
the Servicer may from time to time request for the purpose of enabling the
Servicer to prepare or cause the preparation of tax returns. If so requested
by
the Servicer, the Trustee shall sign tax returns on behalf of the
REMICs.
In
the
event that a Mortgage Loan is discovered to have a defect which, had such defect
been discovered before the startup day, would have prevented such Mortgage
Loan
from being a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of
the Code, and the Seller does not repurchase such Mortgage Loan within 90 days
of such date pursuant to Section 3.3 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement,
the Servicer, on behalf of the Trust, shall within 90 days of the date such
defect is discovered sell such Mortgage Loan at such price as the Servicer,
in
its sole discretion, determines to be the greatest price that will result in
the
purchase thereof within 90 days of such date, unless the Servicer delivers
to
the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that continuing to hold such
Mortgage Loan will not adversely affect the status of the electing portion
of
REMIC I or REMIC II as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes.
In
the
event that the Servicer has paid any federal prohibited transaction penalty
taxes imposed on REMIC I or REMIC II pursuant to clause (f) of the third
preceding paragraph, the Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall (unless the
Servicer’s failure to exercise reasonable care was the primary cause of the
imposition of such taxes) reimburse the Servicer or its agent, upon the written
request of the Servicer, for such payment from amounts on deposit in the
Certificate Account in reduction of the REMIC I Available Distribution Amount
or
the REMIC II Available Distribution Amount, as applicable, for the applicable
Distribution Date. In the event that any federal prohibited transaction penalty
taxes are imposed on REMIC I or REMIC II and not paid by the Servicer pursuant
to clause (f) of the third preceding paragraph, the Trustee on behalf of the
Trust shall pay such taxes from amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account
in
reduction of the REMIC I Available Distribution Amount or the REMIC II Available
Distribution Amount, as applicable, for the applicable Distribution Date. The
amount so reimbursed or paid pursuant to either of the immediately preceding
two
sentences shall be allocated as a loss to the Class R-1 Residual Interest or
the
Class R-2 Residual Interest, as applicable, in reduction of the Class Principal
Balance thereof.
Neither
the Trustee nor the Tax Matters Person shall knowingly or intentionally take any
action that would cause the termination of the REMIC status of REMIC I or REMIC
II.
Section
2.07. Acceptance
by Trustee.
The
Trustee acknowledges receipt (or with respect to any Mortgage Loan subject
to a
Custodial Agreement, including the Initial Custodial Agreement, receipt by
the
Custodian thereunder) on behalf of the Trust of the documents (or
92
certified
copies thereof as specified in Section 2.05) referred to in Section 2.05 above,
but without having made the review required to be made within 45 days pursuant
to this Section 2.07. The Trustee acknowledges that all Mortgage Pool Assets,
Mortgage Files and related documents and property held by it at any time are
held by it as Trustee of the Trust for the benefit of the holders of the REMIC
I
and REMIC II Regular Interests and the Class R-1 and Class R-2 Residual
Interests. The Trustee shall review (or, with respect to the Mortgage Loans
identified in the Initial Custodial Agreement, cause the Initial Custodian
to
review) each Mortgage File within 45 days after the Closing Date and deliver
to
the Company a certification (or, with respect to the Mortgage Loans identified
in the Initial Custodial Agreement, cause the Initial Custodian to deliver
to
the Company a certification, which satisfies the applicable requirements of
this
Agreement; provided,
however,
that
with respect to the Initial Custodian, Exhibit B-2 to the Initial Custodial
Agreement is deemed to satisfy the applicable requirements of this Agreement)
in
the form attached as Exhibit M hereto, to the effect that, except as noted,
all
documents required (in the case of instruments described in clauses (X)(ii),
(X)(iv) and (Y)(ix) of the definition of “Mortgage File,” known by the Trustee
to be required) pursuant to the definition of “Mortgage File” and Section 2.05
have been executed and received, and that such documents relate to the Mortgage
Loans identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule. In performing such review,
the
Trustee may rely upon the purported genuineness and due execution of any such
document, and on the purported genuineness of any signature thereon. The Trustee
shall not be required to make any independent examination of any documents
contained in each Mortgage File beyond the review specifically required herein.
The Trustee makes no representations as to: (i) the validity, legality,
enforceability or genuineness of any of the Mortgage Loans identified on the
Mortgage Loan Schedule, or (ii) the collectability, insurability, effectiveness
or suitability of any Mortgage Loan.
If
the
Trustee finds any document or documents required to be included in the Mortgage
File for a Mortgage Loan pursuant to the definition of “Mortgage File” not to
have been executed and received, the Trustee shall promptly so notify the
Servicer. An exception report delivered by the Custodian to the Servicer
pursuant to the Custodial Agreement shall be deemed to constitute such notice.
Upon notice from the Trustee or the Custodian that any document required to
be
included in the Mortgage File for a Mortgage Loan has not been executed and
received, the Servicer shall promptly notify the Seller of such defect and
take
appropriate steps on behalf of the Trust to enforce the Seller’s obligation,
pursuant to Section 2.4 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, to correct
or
cure such defect or repurchase or substitute for such Mortgage Loan, in
accordance with and subject to the time limitations set forth in such Section
2.4; provided,
however, that
the
Servicer shall not require or permit the Seller to repurchase a Mortgage Loan
pursuant to such Section 2.4 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement more than
two years after the Closing Date unless (a) such defect would cause the Mortgage
Loan to be other than a “qualified mortgage” (as defined in the Code), (b) such
Mortgage Loan is in default, or default is in the judgment of the Servicer
reasonably imminent, or (c) the Servicer, at the expense of the Seller, delivers
to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trust and the Trustee
to
the effect that the repurchase of such Mortgage Loan will not give rise to
a tax
on a prohibited transaction, as defined in Section 860F(a) of the Code;
provided,
further,
that in
the event that such defect consists solely of the failure of the Seller to
deliver any Recording Document with respect to such Mortgage Loan, due to a
delay on the part of the recording office, then the Servicer shall instead
notify the Seller of such defect and take appropriate steps on behalf of the
Trust to enforce the Seller’s obligation, pursuant to Section 2.3 of the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, to comply with the procedure described in
such
Section 2.3.
93
In
connection with the enforcement of the Seller’s repurchase or substitution
obligation pursuant to Section 2.4 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement,
the
Servicer and the Trustee shall comply with the additional provisions set forth
in Section 2.10 hereof.
Section
2.08. Representation
and Warranty of the Company Concerning the Mortgage Loans.
The
Company hereby represents and warrants to the Trust that, immediately upon
the
transfer and assignment contemplated by Section 2.04, the Trust shall have
good
title to, and will be the sole legal owner of, each Mortgage Loan, free and
clear of any encumbrance or lien, other than (i) any lien arising before the
Company’s purchase of the Mortgage Loan from the Seller and (ii) any lien
arising under this Agreement.
The
representation and warranty set forth in this Section 2.08 shall survive
delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to the Trustee or the Custodian,
as
the case may be, and shall continue throughout the term of this Agreement.
Upon
discovery by any of the Company, the Servicer or the Trustee of a breach of
the
foregoing representation and warranty which materially and adversely affects
the
value of the related Mortgage Loans or the interests of the Trust in the related
Mortgage Loans, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written
notice to the others. Within 90 days of its discovery or its receipt of notice
of breach, the Company shall repurchase or substitute for the affected Mortgage
Loan or Mortgage Loans or any property acquired in respect thereof by the Trust,
unless it has cured such breach in all material respects. Any such substitution
shall be made within the three-month period commencing on the Closing Date
(or
within the two-year period commencing on the Closing Date if the related
Mortgage Loan is a “defective obligation” within the meaning of Section
860G(a)(4)(B)(ii) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(f)).
Any
such repurchase shall be made at the Repurchase Price; provided,
however,
that no
Mortgage Loan shall be repurchased pursuant to this Section 2.08 unless (a)
the
Mortgage Loan to be repurchased is in default, or default is in the judgment
of
the Servicer reasonably imminent, or (b) the Servicer, at the expense of the
Company, delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trust
and the Trustee to the effect that the repurchase of such Mortgage Loan will
not
give rise to a tax on a prohibited transaction, as defined in Section 860F(a)
of
the Code. If such breach would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a
“qualified mortgage” (as defined in the Code), then notwithstanding the previous
sentence, the repurchase or substitution must occur within the sooner of (i)
90
days from the date the defect was discovered or (ii) in the case of
substitution, two years from the Closing Date.
Any
number of Substitute Mortgage Loans may be substituted for any number of
Reacquired Mortgage Loans, subject to the limitations described in the next
sentence. With respect to the Mortgage Loans substituted on any date, (i) the
aggregate Principal Balance of the Substitute Mortgage Loans shall not exceed
the aggregate Principal Balance of the Reacquired Mortgage Loans, (ii) each
Substitute Mortgage Loan shall mature no later than, and not more than two
years
before, the weighted average date of maturity of the Reacquired Mortgage Loans,
(iii) each Substitute Mortgage Loan shall have a Current Loan-to-Value Ratio
equal to or less than the weighted average Current Loan-to-Value Ratio of the
Reacquired Mortgage Loans and (iv) each Substitute Mortgage Loan shall have
a
Mortgage Interest Rate on the date of substitution equal to or no more than
1
percentage point greater than the weighted average Mortgage Interest Rate of
the
Reacquired Mortgage Loans and (v) if the Reacquired Mortgage Loans do not
provide for any payments of principal during an initial period, each Substitute
Mortgage Loan also shall not provide for payments of principal during such
initial period. In addition, a Substitute Mortgage Loan shall not be a High
Cost
Loan or Covered Loan (as such terms are defined in the Standard & Poor's
LEVELS® Glossary in effect on the date of substitution, with such exceptions
thereto as the Company and S&P may reasonably agree). A Substitute Mortgage
Loan may be substituted for a defective Mortgage Loan that is itself a
Substitute Mortgage Loan.
94
In
connection with the substitution of one or more Substitute Mortgage Loans for
one or more Reacquired Mortgage Loans on any date, the Company shall pay to
the
Trust the Substitution Price for such Reacquired Mortgage Loans, and such
payment by the Company shall be treated in the same manner as proceeds of the
repurchase by the Company of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.08.
With
respect to each Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Company shall (a) deliver to
and
deposit with, or cause to be delivered to and deposited with, the Trustee or
the
Custodian on behalf of the Trust the Mortgage File for such Substitute Mortgage
Loan and (b) cause the Seller to enter into an agreement with the Trust and
the
Servicer pursuant to which, with respect to such Substitute Mortgage Loan,
the
Seller will (i) make, as of the date of substitution, each of the
representations and warranties that the Seller made pursuant to Section 3.1
of
the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement with respect to the original Mortgage
Loan
(except that references to “Closing Date” or “Cut-off Date” in such Section 3.1
shall be changed to the applicable date of substitution), (ii) agree to deliver
any missing Recording Documents with respect to such Substitute Mortgage Loan,
and to repurchase or substitute for such Substitute Mortgage Loan in the event
of the Seller’s failure to deliver any document required to be included in such
Mortgage File or in the event of the Seller’s material breach of any of such
representations and warranties, upon the same terms as the Seller’s
corresponding obligations with respect to the original Mortgage Loan pursuant
to
Sections 2.3, 2.4 and 3.3 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, and (iii)
convey such Substitute Mortgage Loan to the Trust.
The
Company shall pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any
repurchase or substitution by the Company made pursuant to this Section
2.08.
With
respect to each Mortgage Loan repurchased pursuant to this Section 2.08 and
each
Reacquired Mortgage Loan, the Company shall own and be entitled to receive
all
scheduled payments due after the date of repurchase or substitution, as
applicable, any Curtailments received in or after the calendar month of
repurchase or substitution, as applicable, and any Payoffs received after the
14th day of the calendar month of repurchase or substitution, as applicable;
and
with respect to each Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Company shall own and be
entitled to receive all payments due under the related Mortgage Note on or
before the date of substitution. Any such payments received by the Servicer
shall promptly be remitted by the Servicer to the Company. With respect to
each
Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Trust shall own and be entitled to receive all
scheduled payments due after the date of substitution, any Curtailments received
in or after the calendar month of substitution, and any Payoffs received after
the 14th day of the calendar month of substitution. Any such payments received
by the Company shall promptly be remitted by the Company to the
Servicer.
95
In
connection with any repurchase or substitution by the Company made pursuant
to
this Section 2.08, the Servicer and the Trustee (to the extent of any
obligations on its part) shall comply with the additional provisions set forth
in Section 2.10 hereof.
Section
2.09. Representations
and Warranties of the Seller Concerning the Mortgage Loans.
The
Company hereby assigns to the Trust all of its rights under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement, to the extent that the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
relates to the Mortgage Loans.
Upon
discovery by any of the Company, the Servicer or the Trustee (in the case of
the
Trustee, having actual knowledge thereof) of a breach of any of the
representations and warranties in respect of the Mortgage Loan set forth in
Section 3.1 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (in the case of a breach
of
the representation set forth in clause (xxix) of such Section 3.1 thereof,
determined as specified in Section 3.3(b) thereof) that materially and adversely
affects the value of the related Mortgage Loans or the interests of the Trust
in
the related Mortgage Loans, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt
written notice to the others. Any breach of the representation set forth in
clause (xxvii) or clause (xxviii) of such Section 3.1 thereof shall be deemed
to
materially and adversely affect the value of the related Mortgage Loans or
the
interests of the Trust in the related Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall
promptly notify the Seller of such breach and take appropriate steps on behalf
of the Trust to enforce the Seller’s obligation, pursuant to Section 3.3 of the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, to cure such breach in all material respects
or repurchase or substitute for the affected Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans
or
any property acquired in respect thereof, in accordance with and subject to
the
time limitations set forth in such Section 3.3; provided,
however, that
the
Seller shall not be required or permitted to repurchase a Mortgage Loan pursuant
to such Section 3.3 thereof unless (a) such defect would cause the Mortgage
Loan
to be other than a “qualified mortgage” (as defined in the Code), (b) such
Mortgage Loan is in default, or default is in the judgment of the Servicer
reasonably imminent, or (c) the Servicer, at the expense of the Seller, delivers
to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trust and the Trustee
to
the effect that the purchase of such Mortgage Loan will not give rise to a
tax
on a prohibited transaction, as defined in Section 860F(a) of the Code.
In
connection with the enforcement of the Seller’s repurchase or substitution
obligation pursuant to Section 3.3 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement,
the
Servicer and the Trustee shall comply with the additional provisions set forth
in Section 2.10 hereof.
Section
2.10. Additional
Provisions Relating to Repurchases of and Substitutions for Mortgage Loans
by
the Company or the Seller.
The
Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the Custodial Account for
P&I (i) the Repurchase Price that it receives for each Mortgage Loan
repurchased by the Company pursuant to Section 2.08 hereof, (ii) the
Substitution Price that it receives in connection with each substitution for
a
Mortgage Loan by the Company pursuant to such Section 2.08, (iii) the Repurchase
Price (as defined in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) that it receives
for
each Mortgage Loan repurchased by the Seller pursuant to Section 2.4 or 3.3
of
the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and (iv) the Substitution Price (as defined
in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) that it receives in connection with
each substitution for a Mortgage Loan by the Seller pursuant to such Section
2.4
or 3.3 thereof.
96
Upon
receipt by the Trustee of written notification, signed by a Servicing Officer,
of the deposit in the Custodial Account for P&I of the Repurchase Price or
Substitution Price, as applicable, and (in the case of a substitution for a
Mortgage Loan) upon receipt by the Trustee of such instruments of transfer
or
assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in
the
Trust title to any Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall (or, if
applicable, shall cause the Custodian in accordance with the Custodial Agreement
to) on behalf of the Trust release to the Company or the Seller, as applicable,
or to such person’s designee, the Mortgage File for such Mortgage Loan and shall
execute and deliver (or, in the event that the Mortgage Files are held in the
name of the Custodian, shall cause the Custodian in accordance with the
Custodial Agreement to execute and deliver) on behalf of the Trust such
instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall
be necessary to vest in such person or its designee or assignee title to any
such Mortgage Loan. In furtherance of the foregoing, if such Mortgage Loan
is a
MERS Loan and as a result of the repurchase thereof or substitution therefor
such Mortgage Loan shall cease to be serviced by a servicer that is a member
of
MERS or if the Company or the Seller, as applicable, or such person’s assignee,
shall so request, the Servicer shall cause MERS to execute and deliver an
assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form from MERS to such person or its
assignee and shall cause the Mortgage Loan to be removed from registration
on
the MERS® System in accordance with MERS’ rules and procedures.
It
is
understood and agreed that the obligation of (a) the Seller, pursuant to Section
2.4 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, to repurchase or substitute for
any
Mortgage Loan as to which a defect in a constituent document exists, or (b)
of
the Seller or the Company, as applicable, pursuant to Section 3.3 of the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or Section 2.8 hereof, to repurchase or
substitute for any Mortgage Loan as to which a breach has occurred and is
continuing, shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such defect or breach
available to the Trust or the Holders of the REMIC interests or the Certificates
issued hereunder or the Trustee on behalf of such Holders.
Section
2.11. Acknowledgment
of Transfer of Mortgage Pool Assets.
The
Trustee hereby acknowledges and accepts on behalf of the Trust the transfer
and
assignment pursuant to Section 2.04 to the Trust of the Mortgage Pool Assets,
but without having made the review required to be made within 45 days pursuant
to Section 2.07, and declares that as of the Closing Date it (or, with respect
to the Mortgage Loans identified in the Initial Custodial Agreement, the
Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) holds and shall hold any documents
constituting a part of the Mortgage Pool Assets, and the Mortgage Pool Assets,
as Trustee in trust, upon the trust herein set forth, for the use and benefit
of
all present and future Holders of the REMIC I and REMIC II Regular Interests
and
the Class R-1 and Class R-2 Residual Interests.
Section
2.12. Conveyance
of REMIC III Assets; Security Interest.
The
Company does hereby irrevocably sell, transfer, assign, set over, and otherwise
convey to the Trust, without recourse, all the Company’s right, title and
interest in and to the REMIC III Assets. The Trust, as payment of the purchase
price of the REMIC III Assets, shall issue the REMIC III Regular Interests
and
the Class R-3 Residual Interest to the Company on the Closing Date. Pursuant
to
Section 3818 of the Statutory Trust Statute, the REMIC II Regular Interests
shall not be cancelled and shall be held as treasury interests owned by the
Trust. The REMIC III Regular Interests and the Class R-3 Residual Interest
shall
together be a separate series of beneficial interests in the assets of the
Trust
consisting of the REMIC III Assets pursuant to Section 3806(b)(2) of the
Statutory Trust Statute.
97
It
is the
express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the REMIC III Assets
to the Trust by the Company as provided in this Section 2.12 be, and be
construed as, an absolute sale of the REMIC III Assets. It is, further, not
the
intention of the parties that such conveyance be deemed the grant of a security
interest in the REMIC III Assets by the Company to the Trust to secure a debt
or
other obligation of the Company. However, in the event that, notwithstanding
the
intent of the parties, the REMIC III Assets are held to be the property of
the
Company, or if for any other reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create
a
security interest in the REMIC III Assets, then
(a) this
Agreement shall constitute a security agreement;
(b) the
conveyance provided for in this Section 2.12 shall be deemed to be a grant
by
the Company to the Trust of, and the Company hereby grants to the Trust, to
secure all of the Company’s obligations hereunder, a security interest in all of
the Company’s right, title, and interest, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired, in and to:
(I) The
REMIC
II Regular Interests, including without limitation all rights represented
thereby in and to the Mortgage Pool Assets and the proceeds
thereof;
(II) All
accounts, chattel paper, deposit accounts, documents, general intangibles,
goods, instruments, investment property, letter-of-credit rights, letters of
credit, money, and oil, gas, and other minerals, consisting of, arising from,
or
relating to, any of the foregoing; and
(III) All
proceeds of the foregoing.
The
Company shall file such financing statements, and the Company and the Trustee
acting on behalf of the Trust at the direction of the Company shall, to the
extent consistent with this Agreement, take such other actions as may be
necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were found to create a security
interest in the REMIC III Assets, such security interest would be a perfected
security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained
as such throughout the term of this Agreement. In connection herewith, the
Trust
shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform
Commercial Code as in force in the relevant jurisdiction.
Section
2.13. REMIC
Election for REMIC III.
The
Servicer shall, on behalf of REMIC III, elect to treat REMIC III as a REMIC
within the meaning of Section 860D of the Code and, if necessary, under
applicable state laws. Such election shall be included in the Form 1066 and
any
appropriate state return to be filed on behalf of REMIC III for its first
taxable year.
98
The
Closing Date is hereby designated as the “startup day” of REMIC III within the
meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.
The
regular interests (as set forth in the table contained in the Preliminary
Statement hereto) relating to REMIC III are hereby designated as “regular
interests” in REMIC III for purposes of Section 860G(a)(1) of the Code. The
Class R-3 Residual Interest is hereby designated as the sole class of “residual
interest” in REMIC III for purposes of Section 860G(a)(2) of the Code.
The
parties intend that the affairs of REMIC III shall constitute, and that the
affairs of REMIC III shall be conducted so as to qualify it as, a REMIC. In
furtherance of such intention, the Servicer shall, on behalf of REMIC III:
(a)
prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, a federal tax return using
a calendar year as the taxable year for REMIC III when and as required by the

to
the Certificateholders and the Holders of the Class R-3 Residual Interest all
information reports as and when required to be provided to them in accordance

that any of the Certificates are outstanding so as to maintain the status of
REMIC III as a REMIC under the REMIC provisions; (e) not knowingly or
intentionally take any action or omit to take any action that would cause the
termination of the REMIC status of REMIC III; and (f) pay the amount of any
federal prohibited transaction penalty taxes imposed on REMIC III when and
as
the same shall be due and payable (but such obligation shall not prevent the
Servicer or any other appropriate person from contesting any such tax in
appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the Servicer from withholding
payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such
proceedings).
In
the
event that the Servicer has paid any federal prohibited transaction penalty
taxes imposed on REMIC III pursuant to clause (f) of the immediately preceding
paragraph, the Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall (unless the Servicer’s
failure to exercise reasonable care was the primary cause of the imposition
of
such taxes) reimburse the Servicer, upon the written request of the Servicer,
for such payment from amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account in reduction
of the REMIC III Available Distribution Amount for the applicable Distribution
Date. In the event that any federal prohibited transaction penalty taxes are
imposed on REMIC III and not paid by the Servicer pursuant to clause (f) of
the
immediately preceding paragraph, the Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall pay
such taxes from amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account in reduction
of
the REMIC III Available Distribution Amount for the applicable Distribution
Date. The amount so reimbursed or paid pursuant to either of the immediately
preceding two sentences shall be allocated as a loss to the Class R-3 Residual

any
action that would cause the termination of the REMIC status of REMIC
III.

proceeds of the foregoing.
The
Company shall file such financing statements, and the Company and the Trustee
acting on behalf of the Trust at the direction of the Company shall, to the
extent consistent with this Agreement, take such other actions as may be
necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were found to create a security
interest in the REMIC IV Assets, such security interest would be a perfected
security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained
as such throughout the term of this Agreement. In connection herewith, the
Trust
shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform
Commercial Code as in force in the relevant jurisdiction.

ARTICLE
III
Administration
and Servicing of Mortgage Loans
Section
3.01. The
Servicer.
Washington Mutual Bank shall act as Servicer to service and administer the
Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Trust in accordance with the terms hereof,
consistent with prudent mortgage loan servicing practices and (unless
inconsistent with prudent mortgage loan servicing practices) in the same manner
in which, and with the same care, skill, prudence and diligence with which,
it
services and administers similar mortgage loans for other portfolios, and shall
have full power and authority to do or cause to be done any and all things
in
connection with such servicing and administration which a prudent servicer
of
mortgage loans would do under similar circumstances, including, without
limitation, the power and authority to bring actions and defend the Mortgage
Pool Assets on behalf of the Trust in order to enforce the terms of the Mortgage
Notes. The Servicer may perform its servicing responsibilities through
subservicers or other agents or independent contractors, but shall not thereby
be released from any of its responsibilities hereunder and the Servicer shall
diligently pursue all of its rights against such subservicers or other agents
or
independent contractors; provided,
however,
that the
Servicer shall, if such reports are required to be filed with the Commission
as
an exhibit to a Report on Form 10-K, (i) cause each such party, if determined
by
the Servicer to be a party participating in the servicing function within the
meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, to deliver to the Servicer the report
on
assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria and the accounting
firm’s attestation report described in Section 3.13(c) and (ii) cause each such
party, if determined by the Servicer to meet the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i)
through (iii) of Regulation AB, to deliver to the Servicer the statement of
compliance described in Section 3.13(e).
The
Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect or cause to be collected
all
payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans and
shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement
and
the terms and provisions of any Primary Insurance Policy, any FHA insurance
policy or VA guaranty, any hazard insurance policy, and federal flood insurance,
cause to be followed such collection procedures as are followed with respect
to
mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held in portfolios of
responsible mortgage lenders in the local areas where each Mortgaged Property
is
located. The Servicer shall enforce “due-on-sale” clauses with respect to the
related Mortgage Loans, to the extent permitted by law, subject to the
provisions set forth in Section 3.08.
104
Consistent
with the foregoing, the Servicer may, in accordance with prudent mortgage loan
servicing practices and subject to Section 3.20, (i) waive or cause to be waived
any assumption fee or late payment charge in connection with the prepayment
of
any Mortgage Loan and (ii) only upon determining that the coverage of any
applicable insurance policy or guaranty related to a Mortgage Loan will not
be
materially adversely affected, arrange a schedule, running for no more than
180
days after the first delinquent Due Date, for payment of any delinquent
installment on any Mortgage Note or for the liquidation of delinquent items.
Consistent
with the terms of this Section 3.01, the Servicer may waive, modify or vary
any
term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of strict compliance
with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor if it
has
determined, exercising its good faith business judgment in the same manner
as it
would if it were the owner of the related Mortgage Loan, that the security
for,
and the timely and full collectability of, such Mortgage Loan would not be
adversely affected by such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence;
provided,
however,
that
(unless the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Mortgage Loan or in
the
reasonable judgment of the Servicer such default is imminent) the Servicer
shall
not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would (i)
change the applicable Mortgage Interest Rate, defer or forgive the payment
of
any principal or interest, reduce the outstanding principal balance (except
for
actual payments of principal) or extend the final maturity date with respect
to
such Mortgage Loan, or (ii) be inconsistent with the terms of any applicable
Primary Insurance Policy, FHA insurance policy, VA guaranty, hazard insurance
policy or federal flood insurance policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan
that would both constitute a sale or exchange of such Mortgage Loan within
the
meaning of Section 1001 of the Code (including any proposed, temporary or final
regulations promulgated thereunder) (other than in connection with a proposed
conveyance or assumption of such Mortgage Loan that is treated as a Principal
Prepayment or in a default situation) and cause any REMIC to fail to qualify
as
such under the Code. The Servicer shall be entitled to approve a request from
a
Mortgagor for a partial release of the related Mortgaged Property, the granting
of an easement thereon in favor of another Person, any alteration or demolition
of the related Mortgaged Property or other similar matters if it has determined,
exercising its good faith business judgment in the same manner as it would
if it
were the owner of the related Mortgage Loan, that the security for, and the
timely and full collectability of, such Mortgage Loan would not be adversely
affected thereby and that REMIC I, REMIC II REMIC III and REMIC IV would not
fail to continue to qualify as REMICs under the Code as a result thereof and
that no tax on “prohibited transactions” or “contributions” after the startup
day would be imposed on any REMIC as a result thereof.
The
Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trust to, and shall, execute
and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered on behalf of the Holders
of
the REMIC I and REMIC II Regular Interests and the Class R-1 and Class R-2
Residual Interests, the Trustee and the Trust or any of them, any and all
instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release,
discharge or modification, assignments of Mortgages and endorsements of Mortgage
Notes in connection with refinancings (in jurisdictions where such assignments
are the customary and usual standard of practice of mortgage lenders) and all
other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with
respect to the Mortgaged Properties. The Servicer is hereby further authorized
and empowered by the Trust to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and
delivered on behalf of the Holders of the REMIC I and REMIC II Regular
Interests and the Class R-1 and Class R-2 Residual Interests, the Trustee and
the Trust, or any of them, such instruments of assignment or other comparable
instruments as the Servicer shall, in its sole judgment, deem appropriate in
order to register any Mortgage Loan on the MERS® System or to cause the removal
of any Mortgage Loan from registration thereon. Any expenses incurred in
connection with the actions described in the preceding sentence shall be borne
by the Servicer with no right of reimbursement; provided,
however,
that any
such expenses incurred as a result of any termination by MERS of the MERS®
System shall be reimbursable to the Servicer. The Trustee on behalf of the
Trust
shall execute and furnish to the Servicer, at the Servicer’s direction, any
powers of attorney and other documents prepared by the Servicer and determined
by the Servicer to be necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry
out its supervisory, servicing and administrative duties under this
Agreement.
105
The
Servicer shall obtain (to the extent generally commercially available) and
maintain fidelity bond and errors and omissions coverage acceptable to Xxxxxx

an
advance), any tax liens in connection with the Mortgaged Properties and premiums
with respect to any insurance required to be maintained by the Servicer under
Section 3.06 and 3.07, to the extent that such amounts are not paid by the
Mortgagors when due and to the extent that any such payment would not constitute
a Nonrecoverable Advance when made.
In
connection with the servicing and administering of each Mortgage Loan, the
Servicer and any affiliate of the Servicer (i) may perform services such as
appraisals, default management and (in the case of affiliates only) brokerage
services that are not customarily provided by servicers of mortgage loans,
and
shall be entitled to reasonable compensation therefor and (ii) may, at its
own discretion and on behalf of the Trust, obtain credit information in the
form
of a “credit score” from a credit repository.
Section
3.02. The
Custodial Accounts for P&I and Buydown Fund Accounts.

In
the
event that Buydown Funds have been provided with respect to any Mortgage Loan,
the Servicer shall deposit such Buydown Funds in Buydown Fund Accounts
established and maintained by the Servicer.
The
Servicer is hereby authorized to make withdrawals from and to issue drafts
against the Custodial Accounts for P&I and the Buydown Fund Accounts for the
purposes required or permitted by this Agreement.
The
Servicer hereby undertakes to assure remittance to the Certificate Account
of
all amounts relating to the Mortgage Loans that have been collected by the
Servicer and are due to the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 4.01 of
this
Agreement.
Funds
held in the Custodial Account for P&I may, at the Servicer’s option, be
invested in (i) one or more Eligible Investments which shall in no event mature
later than the Business Day prior to the Distribution Date on which such funds
are required to be distributed to pursuant to Article IV (except if such
Eligible Investments are obligations of the institution acting as the Trustee,
in which case such Eligible Investments may mature on such Distribution Date),
or (ii) such other instruments as shall be required to maintain the Ratings.

with the Investment Depository in the Investment Account in the name of the
Servicer and the Trust for investment only as set forth in this Section 3.03.

additional servicing compensation.
(b) Funds
held in the Investment Account shall be invested in (i) one or more Eligible
Investments which shall in no event mature later than the Business Day prior

Distribution Date pursuant to Article IV (other than amounts to be deposited
in
the Certificate Account by the Trustee pursuant to clause (c) of this Section
3.04).
(c) Funds
held in the Certificate Account shall be invested at the written direction
of
the Servicer in (i) one or more Eligible Investments which shall in no event
mature later than the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date
(except if such Eligible Investments are obligations of the institution acting
as the Trustee, such Eligible Investments may mature on the Distribution Date),
or (ii) such other instruments as shall be required to maintain the Ratings.
The
Servicer shall be entitled to be paid as additional servicing compensation
any
gains earned on such Eligible Investments and shall bear any losses suffered
in
connection therewith. If the Trustee has not received such written investment
directions from the Servicer, the Trustee shall not invest funds held in the
Certificate Account. The Trustee shall have no liability for any losses on
investments of funds held in the Certificate Account.
108
Section
3.05. Permitted
Withdrawals from the Certificate Account, the Investment Account, the Custodial
Accounts for P&I and the
Buydown Fund Accounts.
(a) The
Servicer is authorized to make withdrawals (or, in the case of the Certificate
Account, to direct the Trustee to make withdrawals), from time to time, from
the
Investment Account, the Certificate Account or the Custodial Accounts for
P&I of amounts deposited therein, as follows:
(i) To
reimburse itself for the
following amounts advanced by
the Servicer, to
the extent that such amounts have not been previously reimbursed or otherwise
recovered by the Servicer:
(a)
Monthly P&I Advances made pursuant to Section 4.02, (b) amounts
advanced with respect to the payment of taxes pursuant to the sixth paragraph
of
Section 3.01, (c)
amounts
advanced to maintain any required insurance pursuant to Sections 3.06 and 3.07
and (d) amounts
expended by or for the account of the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.09 in
connection with foreclosure or bankruptcy proceedings or the maintenance or
restoration of Mortgaged Properties, such
right to reimbursement pursuant to this paragraph (i) being limited to amounts
(including late Monthly Payments, Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds)
received on the particular Mortgage Loan with respect to which such advances
were made;
(ii) To
reimburse itself for amounts advanced
by
the Servicer
that the Servicer has determined to be Nonrecoverable Advances;
(iii) To
pay to
itself the sum of the Servicing Fees and any Payoff Interest (net of
Compensating Interest reduced by Payoff Earnings) for the related Distribution
Date;
(iv) To
pay to
itself the amount of any reinvestment earnings deposited or earned in the
Investment Account or the Certificate Account (reduced by the lesser of Payoff
Earnings and Compensating Interest for the related Distribution
Date);
(v) To
reimburse itself or the Company for expenses incurred by and reimbursable to
it
or the Company pursuant to Section 6.03;
(vi) To
pay on
behalf of the Trust any Special Primary Insurance Premium payable by the Trust
pursuant to Section 4.04(a); provided,
the
Servicer shall give written notice thereof to the Trustee prior to noon New
York
City time two Business Days prior to the applicable Distribution Date;
(vii) To
make
any deposit, required or permitted hereunder, of withdrawn funds to the
Investment Account or the Certificate Account; and
after
making or providing for the above withdrawals
(viii) To
clear
and terminate the Investment Account and the Certificate Account following
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01.
Since,
in
connection with withdrawals pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(i), the Servicer’s
entitlement thereto is limited to collections or other recoveries on the related
Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall keep and maintain, separate accounting for
each Mortgage Loan, for the purpose of justifying any such
withdrawals.
109
(b) The
Servicer is authorized to make withdrawals, from time to time, of Buydown Funds
from the Buydown Fund Accounts or Custodial Accounts for P&I (and, to the
extent applicable, to make deposits of the amounts withdrawn), as
follows:
(i) To
deposit each month in the Investment Account or the Certificate Account the
amount necessary to supplement payments received on Buydown Loans;
(ii) In
the
event of a Payoff of any Mortgage Loan having a related Buydown Fund, to apply
amounts remaining in Buydown Fund Accounts to reduce the required amount of
such
principal Payoff (or, if the Mortgagor has made a Payoff, to refund such
remaining Buydown Fund amounts to the Person entitled thereto);
(iii) In
the
event of foreclosure or liquidation of any Mortgage Loan having a Buydown Fund,
to deposit remaining Buydown Fund amounts in the Investment Account or the
Certificate Account as Liquidation Proceeds; and
(iv) To
clear
and terminate the portion of any account representing Buydown Funds following
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01.
(c) The
Trustee is authorized to make withdrawals from time to time from the Certificate
Account to reimburse itself for advances it has made as successor Servicer
pursuant to Section 7.01(a) hereof that it has determined to be Nonrecoverable
Advances.
Section
3.06. Maintenance
of Primary Insurance Policies; Collections Thereunder.
The
Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep in full force and
effect each Primary Insurance Policy (except any Special Primary Insurance
Policy) required with respect to a Mortgage Loan until no longer required,
and
the Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep in full force
and
effect each Special Primary Insurance Policy, if any. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Servicer shall have no obligation to maintain any Primary
Insurance Policy for a Mortgage Loan for which the outstanding Principal Balance
thereof at any time subsequent to origination was 80% or less of the Appraised
Value of the related Mortgaged Property, unless required by applicable
law.
Unless
required by applicable law, the Servicer shall not cancel or refuse to renew
any
Primary Insurance Policy in effect at the date of the initial issuance of the
Certificates that is required to be kept in force hereunder; provided,
however,
that the
Servicer shall not advance funds for the payment of any premium due under (i)
any Primary Insurance Policy (other than a Special Primary Insurance Policy)
if
it shall determine that such an advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance or
(ii) any Special Primary Insurance Policy.
Section
3.07. Maintenance
of Hazard Insurance.
The
Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan (other than a
Cooperative Loan) hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount which
is
not less than the original principal balance of such Mortgage Loan, except
in
cases approved by the Servicer in which such amount exceeds the value of the
improvements to the Mortgaged Property. The Servicer shall also require hazard
110
insurance
with extended coverage in a comparable amount on property acquired upon
foreclosure, or deed in lieu of foreclosure, of any Mortgage Loan (other
than a Cooperative Loan). Any amounts collected under any such policies (other
than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged
Property) shall be deposited into the Custodial Account for P&I, subject to
withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.03 and Section 3.05. Any unreimbursed costs
incurred in maintaining any insurance described in this Section 3.07 shall
be
recoverable as an advance by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.05(a). Such
insurance shall be with insurers approved by the Servicer or Xxxxxx Mae or
Xxxxxxx Mac. Other additional insurance may be required of a Mortgagor pursuant
to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and
as
shall require such additional insurance. Where any part of any improvement
to
the Mortgaged Property (other than a Mortgaged Property secured by a Cooperative
Loan) is located in a federally designated special flood hazard area and in
a
community which participates in the National Flood Insurance Program at the
time
of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall cause flood
insurance to be provided. The hazard insurance coverage required by this Section
3.07 may be met with blanket policies providing protection equivalent to
individual policies otherwise required. The Servicer agrees to present, or
cause
to be presented, on behalf of and for the benefit of the Trust, claims under
the
hazard insurance policy respecting any Mortgage Loan, and in this regard to
take
such reasonable actions as shall be necessary to permit recovery under such
policy.
Section
3.08. Enforcement
of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.
When
any Mortgaged Property is about to be conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Servicer
shall, to the extent it has knowledge of such prospective conveyance and prior
to the time of the consummation of such conveyance, exercise on behalf of the
Trust the Trust’s rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan, to
the extent that such acceleration is permitted by the terms of the related
Mortgage Note, under any “due-on-sale” clause applicable thereto; provided,
however,
that the
Servicer shall not exercise any such right if the due-on-sale clause, in the
reasonable belief of the Servicer, is not enforceable under applicable law
or if
such exercise would result in non-coverage of any resulting loss that would
otherwise be covered under any insurance policy. In the event the Servicer
is
prohibited from exercising such right, the Servicer is authorized to take or
enter into an assumption and modification agreement from or with the Person
to
whom a Mortgaged Property has been or is about to be conveyed, pursuant to
which
such Person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, unless prohibited by
applicable state law or unless the Mortgage Note contains a provision allowing
a
qualified borrower to assume the Mortgage Note, the Mortgagor remains liable
thereon; provided that the Mortgage Loan shall continue to be covered (if so
covered before the Servicer enters such agreement) by any related Primary
Insurance Policy. The Servicer is also authorized to enter into a substitution
of liability agreement with such Person, pursuant to which the original
Mortgagor is released from liability and such Person is substituted as Mortgagor
and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note. The Servicer shall not enter into
any substitution or assumption with respect to a Mortgage Loan if such
substitution or assumption shall (i) both constitute a “significant
modification” effecting an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under
the Code (or Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) and cause the REMICs
to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions or (ii) cause the
imposition of any tax on “prohibited transactions” or “contributions” after the
startup day under the REMIC Provisions. The Servicer shall notify the Trustee
that any such substitution or assumption agreement has been completed by
forwarding to the Trustee (or, if applicable, the Custodian) the original copy
of such substitution or assumption agreement and other documents and instruments
constituting a part thereof. In connection with any such assumption or
substitution agreement, the terms of the related Mortgage Note shall not be
changed. Any fee collected by the Servicer for entering into an assumption
or
substitution of liability agreement shall be paid to the Servicer as additional
servicing compensation.
111
Notwithstanding
the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this Agreement, the Servicer
shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or otherwise in violation of any
of
its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan by
operation of law or any assumption which the Servicer may be restricted by
law
from preventing, for any reason whatsoever.
Section
3.09. Realization
Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
The
Servicer shall foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert, or cause to
be
foreclosed upon or comparably converted, the ownership of any Mortgaged Property
securing a Mortgage Loan which comes into and continues in default and as to
which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent
payments pursuant to Section 3.01. In lieu of such foreclosure or other
conversion, and taking into consideration the desirability of maximizing net
Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds, the Servicer may, to the extent
consistent with prudent mortgage loan servicing practices, accept a payment
of
less than the outstanding Principal Balance of a delinquent Mortgage Loan in
full satisfaction of the indebtedness evidenced by the related Mortgage Note
and
release the lien of the related Mortgage upon receipt of such payment. The
Servicer shall not foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert a Mortgaged
Property if the Servicer is aware of evidence of toxic waste, other hazardous
substances or other evidence of environmental contamination thereon and the
Servicer determines that it would be imprudent to do so. In connection with
such
foreclosure or other conversion, the Servicer shall cause to be followed such
practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable and as shall
be
normal and usual in general mortgage servicing activities. The Servicer shall
be
responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such foreclosure
proceedings or in any bankruptcy proceedings with respect to a Mortgagor, and
the costs and expenses of maintaining or restoring any Mortgaged Property
securing a defaulted Mortgage Loan; provided,
however,
that it
shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof (as well as its normal servicing
compensation) as an advance. The foregoing is subject to the provision that,
in
the case of damage to a Mortgaged Property from an Uninsured Cause, the Servicer
shall not advance funds towards the restoration of the property unless it shall
be determined, in the sole judgment of the Servicer, (i) that such restoration
will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan to
Certificateholders after reimbursement to itself for such expenses, and (ii)
that such expenses will be recoverable to it through Liquidation Proceeds.
The
Servicer shall maintain information required for tax reporting purposes
regarding any Mortgaged Property which is abandoned or which has been foreclosed
or otherwise comparably converted. The Servicer shall report such information
to
the Internal Revenue Service and the Mortgagor in the manner required by
applicable law.
The
Servicer may enter into one or more special servicing agreements with a Lowest
Class B Owner, subject to each Rating Agency’s acknowledgment that the Ratings
of the Certificates in effect immediately prior to the entering into of such
agreement would not be qualified, downgraded or withdrawn and the Certificates
would not be placed on credit review status (except for possible upgrading)
as a
result of such agreement. Any such agreement may contain provisions whereby
such
Lowest Class B Owner may (a) instruct the Servicer to commence or delay
foreclosure proceedings with respect to delinquent Mortgage Loans, provided
that
the Lowest Class B Owner deposits a specified amount of cash with the Servicer
that will be available for distribution to Certificateholders if Liquidation
Proceeds are less than they otherwise may have been had the Servicer acted
pursuant to its normal servicing procedures, (b) purchase such delinquent
Mortgage Loans from the Trust immediately prior to the commencement of
foreclosure proceedings at a price equal to the aggregate outstanding Principal
Balance of such Mortgage Loans plus accrued interest thereon at the applicable
Mortgage Interest Rate through the last day of the month in which such Mortgage
Loans are purchased plus any unreimbursed advances made by the Servicer
hereunder; and/or (c) assume all of the servicing rights and obligations with
respect to such delinquent Mortgage Loans so long as (i) the Servicer has the
right to transfer the servicing rights and obligations of such Mortgage Loans
to
another servicer and (ii) such Lowest Class B Owner will service such Mortgage
Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided,
however, that
no
such agreement will relieve the Servicer of any of its obligations
hereunder.
112
REMIC
I
and REMIC II shall not acquire any real property (or personal property incident
to such real property) except in connection with a default or imminent default
of a Mortgage Loan. In the event that REMIC I or REMIC II acquires any real
property (or personal property incident to such real property) in connection
with a default or imminent default of a Mortgage Loan, such property shall
be
disposed of by the Servicer as soon as practicable in a manner that, consistent
with prudent mortgage loan servicing practices, maximizes the net present value
of the recovery to the Trust, but in any event within three years after its
acquisition by the Servicer for REMIC I or REMIC II unless the Servicer provides
to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holding by REMIC
I
or REMIC II of such Mortgaged Property subsequent to three years after its
acquisition will not result in the imposition of taxes on “prohibited
transactions” of REMIC I or REMIC II as defined in Section 860F of the Code or
under the law of any state in which real property securing a Mortgage Loan
owned
by REMIC I or REMIC II is located or cause REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to
qualify as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes or for state tax purposes
under the laws of any state in which real property securing a Mortgage Loan
owned by REMIC I or REMIC II is located at any time that any Certificates are
outstanding. The Servicer shall conserve, protect and operate each such property
for the Certificateholders solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition
and
sale in a manner which does not cause such property to fail to qualify as
“foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) or result in the
receipt by the REMIC of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the
meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code or any “net income from foreclosure
property” which is subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions. Pursuant to
its efforts to sell such property, the Servicer shall either itself or through
an agent selected by the Servicer protect and conserve such property in the
same
manner and to such extent as is customary in the locality where such property
is
located and may, incident to its conservation and protection of the assets
of
the Trust, rent the same, or any part thereof, as the Servicer deems to be
in
the best interest of the Trust for the period prior to the sale of such
property. Additionally, the Servicer shall perform the tax withholding and
shall
file information returns with respect to the receipt of mortgage interests
received in a trade or business, the reports of foreclosures and abandonments
of
any Mortgaged Property and the information returns relating to cancellation
of
indebtedness income with respect to any Mortgaged Property required by Sections
6050H, 6050J and 6050P, respectively, of the Code, and deliver to the Trustee
an
Officers’ Certificate on or before March 31 of each year stating that such
reports have been filed. Such reports shall be in form and substance sufficient
to meet the reporting requirements imposed by Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P
of
the Code.
113
Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the Servicer and the Trustee, as
applicable, shall comply with all federal withholding requirements with respect
to payments to Certificateholders of interest or original issue discount that
the Servicer or the Trustee reasonably believes are applicable under the Code.
The consent of Certificateholders shall not be required for any such
withholding. Without limiting the foregoing, the Servicer shall not withhold
with respect to payments of interest or original issue discount in the case
of a
Certificateholder that has furnished or caused to be furnished an effective
Form
W-8 or an acceptable substitute form or a successor form and who is not a “10
percent shareholder” within the meaning of Code Section 871(h)(3)(B) or a
“controlled foreign corporation” described in Code Section 881(c)(3)(C) with
respect to REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III, REMIC IV or the Company. In the event
the Trustee withholds any amount from interest or original issue discount
payments or advances thereof to any Certificateholder pursuant to federal
withholding requirements, the Trustee shall indicate the amount withheld to
such
Certificateholder.
Section
3.10. Trustee
to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.
Upon
the Payoff or scheduled maturity of any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall cause
such final payment to be deposited within 48 hours in the related Custodial
Account for P&I. The Servicer shall promptly notify the Trustee thereof by a
certification (which certification shall include a statement to the effect
that
all amounts received in connection with such payment which are required to
be
deposited in such account have been so deposited) of a Servicing Officer and
shall request delivery to it of the Mortgage File; provided,
however,
that
such certification shall not be required if the Mortgage File is held by a
Custodian which is also the Servicer of the Mortgage Loan. Upon receipt of
such
certification and request, the Trustee shall (or, if applicable, shall cause
the
Custodian in accordance with the Custodial Agreement to), not later than the
fifth succeeding Business Day, release, or cause to be released, the related
Mortgage File to the Servicer. With any such Payoff or other final payment,
the
Servicer is authorized (i) to prepare for and procure from the trustee or
mortgagee under the Mortgage which secured the Mortgage Note a deed of full
reconveyance or other form of satisfaction or assignment of Mortgage and
endorsement of Mortgage Note in connection with a refinancing covering the
Mortgaged Property, which satisfaction, endorsed Mortgage Note or assigning
document shall be delivered by the Servicer to the person or persons entitled
thereto, and (ii) with respect to any MERS Loan, to cause the removal of such
Mortgage Loan from registration on the MERS® System. No expenses incurred in
connection with such satisfaction or assignment shall be payable to the Servicer
by the Trustee or from the Certificate Account, the related Investment Account
or the related Custodial Account for P&I. From time to time as appropriate
for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including, for this
purpose, collection under any Primary Insurance Policy, the Trustee shall (or,
if applicable, shall cause the Custodian in accordance with the Custodial
Agreement to), upon request of the Servicer and delivery to it of a trust
receipt signed by a Servicing Officer, release not later than the fifth Business
Day following the date of receipt of such request and trust receipt the related
Mortgage File to the Servicer and shall execute such documents as shall be
necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings. Such trust receipt shall
obligate the Servicer to return the Mortgage File to the Trustee (or, if
applicable, the Custodian) when the need therefor by the Servicer no longer
exists, unless the Mortgage Loan shall be liquidated, in which case, upon
receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer similar to that herein above
specified, the trust receipt shall be released by the Trustee to the
Servicer.
114
Section
3.11. Compensation
to the Servicer.
As
compensation for its activities hereunder, the Servicer shall be entitled to
receive from the accounts listed in Section 3.05(a) the amounts provided for
by
Section 3.05(a)(iii). In addition, the Servicer shall be entitled to be paid,
as
additional servicing compensation, (i) any prepayment penalty received on a
Mortgage Loan that is not an Assigned Prepayment Premium, and any late charges,
nonsufficient funds fees and other fees and charges collected on the Mortgage
Loan, (ii) to the extent provided in Section 3.03, all gains realized on
investments of funds held in the Investment Account and (iii) all gains realized
on investments of funds held in the Certificate Account. The Servicer shall
be
required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities
hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor, except as
specifically provided herein.
Section
3.12. [Reserved.]
Section
3.13. Reports

Statements.
The
Servicer shall, on or before the 90th day following each December 31 after
the
Cut-Off Date, deliver to the Company and the Trustee, and, if required, file

respect to each subservicer or other agent or independent contractor through
which the Servicer performs any of its servicing responsibilities hereunder
and
each Custodian, in each case, if determined by the Servicer to be a party
participating in the servicing function within the meaning of Item 1122 of
Regulation AB, (i) a report prepared by such party on its assessment of
compliance during the preceding calendar year with all applicable servicing
criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB with respect to asset-backed
securities transactions taken as a whole involving such party that are backed
by

such
other party) has been made under such officer’s supervision; and
(ii) to
the
best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer (or such
other party) has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement (or
the
servicing agreement applicable to such other party) in all material respects
throughout the preceding calendar year (or the applicable portion thereof)
or,
if there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material
respect, specifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature
and
status thereof;
provided,
however,
that the
Servicer shall not be required to deliver the documents described in clauses
(c)
and (d), and in clause (e) with respect to any subservicer or other agent or
independent contractor, or any Custodian, if such reports are not required
to be
filed with the Commission as an exhibit to a Report on Form 10-K.
Copies
of
such reports and statements shall be provided by the Servicer, or by the Trustee
(solely to the extent that such copies are available to the Trustee) at the
expense of the Servicer, to Certificateholders upon request.
Section
3.14. Access
to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the Mortgage
Loans.
In the
event that the Certificates are legal for investment by federally-insured
savings associations, the Servicer shall provide to the OTS, the FDIC and the
supervisory agents and examiners of the OTS and the FDIC access to the
documentation regarding the related Mortgage Loans required by applicable
regulations of the OTS or the FDIC, as applicable, and shall in any event
provide such access to the documentation regarding such Mortgage Loans to the
Trustee and its representatives, such access being afforded without charge,
but
only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices
of
the Servicer designated by it.

of the Class C-PPP Reserve Fund. On
or
prior to the Closing Date, the Trustee shall cause to be established and
maintained the Class C-PPP Reserve Fund, into which an amount equal to $100
shall be contributed by the Underwriter. On the Distribution Date in April
2010
(or, if the Servicer exercises its purchase option set forth in the first

are
paid in full or liquidated, in each case before the Distribution Date in April
2010, then on the date of such purchase or payment in full or liquidation),

116
Amounts
on deposit in the Class C-PPP Reserve Fund shall not be invested and shall
not
be held in an interest-bearing account.
To
the
extent that it constitutes a “reserve fund” for purposes of the REMIC
Provisions, the Class C-PPP Reserve Fund established hereunder shall be an

that regard (i) such fund shall be an outside reserve fund and not an asset
of
any REMIC, (ii) such fund shall be owned for federal tax purposes by the

maturity set by the British Bankers’ Association (the “BBA”) as of 11:00 a.m.
(London time) on such LIBOR Determination Date as found on any of the Moneyline
Telerate Service (formerly the Dow Xxxxx Markets) page 3750, the Reuters
Monitor Money Rates Service page “LIBOR01” or the Bloomberg L.P. page “BBAM”
(each such page, or such other page as may replace any of the foregoing on
such
service or such other service as may be nominated by the BBA as the information
vendor for the purpose of displaying the BBA’s Interest Settlement Rates for
deposits in United States dollars, each, a “Designated Telerate
Page”).
117
(b) If
on any
LIBOR Determination Date, such Interest Settlement Rates are not available
from
any Designated Telerate Page, LIBOR for the related accrual period will be
the
most recently published Interest Settlement Rate. In the event that the BBA
no
longer sets an Interest Settlement Rate, the Servicer shall calculate LIBOR
for
the immediately following accrual period as follows: the Servicer will determine
LIBOR by reference to the quotations offered by the principal London office
of
each of the designated Reference Banks meeting the criteria set forth below
for
making one-month United States dollar deposits in leading banks in the London
Interbank market, as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the LIBOR Determination
Date. Under this method LIBOR will be established by the Servicer on each LIBOR
Determination Date as follows:
(i) If
on any
LIBOR Determination Date two or more Reference Banks provide offered quotations,
LIBOR for the next interest accrual period shall be the arithmetic mean of
the
offered quotations, carrying the result (expressed as a percentage) out to
six
decimal places, and rounding to five decimal places.
(ii) If
on any
LIBOR Determination Date only one or none of the Reference Banks provides
offered quotations, LIBOR for the next interest accrual period shall be the
greater of:
(A) LIBOR
as
determined on the previous LIBOR Determination Date (or, in the case of the
first LIBOR Determination Date, the applicable LIBOR as specified in the first
sentence of Section 3.19(a)) and
(B) the
Reserve Interest Rate.
The
“Reserve Interest Rate” shall be the rate per annum that the Servicer determines
to be either:
(A) the
arithmetic mean, (expressed as a percentage) carried out to six decimal places,
and rounded to five decimal places, of the one-month United States dollar
lending rates that New York City banks selected by the Servicer are quoting,
on
the relevant LIBOR Determination Date, to the principal London offices of at
least two of the Reference Banks to which the quotations are, in the opinion
of
the Servicer, being so made, or
(B) if
the
Servicer cannot determine the arithmetic mean, the lowest one-month United
States dollar lending rate which New York City banks selected by the Servicer
are quoting on the LIBOR Determination Date to leading European
banks.
(iii) If
on any
LIBOR Determination Date the Servicer is required but is unable to determine
the
Reserve Interest Rate in the manner provided in paragraph (ii) above, LIBOR
for
the next interest accrual period shall be LIBOR as determined on the preceding
LIBOR Determination Date (or, in the case of the first LIBOR Determination
Date,
the applicable LIBOR as specified in the first sentence of Section
3.19(a)).
118
Each
“Reference Bank” (i) will be a leading bank engaged in transactions in
Eurodollar deposits in the international Eurocurrency market, (ii) will not
control, be controlled by, or be under common control with, the Servicer and
(iii) will have an established place of business in London. If any Reference
Bank should be unwilling or unable to act as such or if the Servicer should
terminate the designation of any such reference bank, the Servicer will promptly
designate another leading bank meeting the criteria specified above. If on
any
such LIBOR Determination Date, the Servicer calculates LIBOR on the basis of
the
provisions of this Section 3.19(b), the Servicer shall designate the
Reference Banks.
(c) The
establishment of LIBOR on each LIBOR Determination Date by the Servicer for
the
related accrual period will, in the absence of manifest error, be final and
binding.
Section
3.20. Assigned
Prepayment Premiums.
(a)
Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a voluntary Payoff,
the Servicer may not waive any Prepayment Premium or portion thereof required
by
the terms of the related Mortgage Note:
(1)
unless
the related Mortgage Loan is in default or default is foreseeable and such
waiver (i) is standard and customary in servicing mortgage loans similar to
the Mortgage Loans and (ii) would, in the reasonable judgment of the
Servicer, maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value
of
such Prepayment Premium and the related Mortgage Loan,
(2)
unless
(i) the enforceability thereof is limited due to acceleration in connection
with
a foreclosure or other involuntary payment or (ii) the enforceability is
otherwise limited or prohibited by applicable law,
(3)
unless
the enforceability would be considered “predatory” pursuant to written
guidelines issued by any applicable federal, state or local authority having
jurisdiction over such matters,
(4)
unless
the Servicer is unable to locate documentation sufficient to allow it to confirm
the existence and amount of such Prepayment Premium after using commercially
reasonable efforts to locate such documentation, which efforts shall include,
but are not limited to, seeking such documentation from the Company, the
Custodian and from its own records or files,
(5) unless
the Mortgagor sells the Mortgaged Property and obtains a new mortgage loan
originated and serviced by the Servicer to purchase another property, provided
that the prepayment is made no earlier than one year after
origination,
(6) unless
the Payoff is made on a mortgage loan with a prepayment penalty term greater
than twelve months and is made using the proceeds of another mortgage loan
originated by the Servicer within 90 days of the end of the prepayment penalty
term, if such mortgage loan qualifies under the Servicer’s then current policies
for the administration of prepayment penalties for mortgage loans of the same
type as the Mortgage Loan that the Servicer administers for its own account,
or
119
(7) unless
the Mortgage Loan is subject to the Relief Act at the time of such
Payoff.
(b) If
the
Servicer has waived all or a portion of an Prepayment Premium relating to a
voluntary Payoff in compliance with Section 3.20(a), then the Class PPP
Certificateholders shall not be entitled to the amounts waived.
(c) Upon
discovery by the Servicer, the Company or the Trustee (in the case of the
Trustee, having actual knowledge thereof) of a breach of the provisions of
Section 3.20(a), which materially and adversely affects the Holders of the
Class
PPP Certificates, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written
notice to the other parties. Within 60 days of the earlier of discovery by
the
Servicer, the Company or the Trustee, as applicable, of such breach, the
Servicer shall cure such breach in all material respects or, if the breach
cannot be cured, shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, to the Custodial
Account the amount of each impermissibly waived Prepayment Premium (less any
amount collected from the Mortgagor in respect to such Prepayment Premium);
provided,
however,
that
the Servicer shall not be obligated to deposit the amount of any impermissibly
waived Prepayment Premium if the failure to collect such amount is the direct
result of inaccurate or incomplete information related to the Prepayment Premium
in effect at such time.
Upon
discovery by the Servicer, the Company or the Trustee (in the case of the
Trustee, having actual knowledge thereof) of a breach by the Seller of any
of
the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.4(b) of the Mortgage
Loan Purchase Agreement, which materially and adversely affects the Holders
of
the Class PPP Certificates, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt
written notice to the other parties. The Servicer shall promptly notify the
Seller of such breach and take appropriate steps on behalf of the Trust to
enforce the Seller’s obligation, pursuant to Section 3.4(c) of the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement, to pay to the Trust the amount of each Prepayment Premium
that would have been collected had each such representation and warranty
referred to in this paragraph been true (less any amount collected from the
related Mortgagor with respect to such Prepayment Premium). The Servicer shall
deposit, or cause to be deposited, to the Custodial Account for P&I within
48 hours or receipt the amounts so received from the Seller.

Section

(a) To
the

to
the Custodial Account for P&I, or apply funds held in the Custodial Account
for P&I for future distribution, to cover any shortfall between (i) Monthly
Payments scheduled to be received in respect of the Mortgage Loans and (ii)
the
amounts actually received; provided,
however,
that
with respect to any Balloon Loan that is delinquent on its maturity date, the
Servicer will not be required to advance the related balloon payment but will
be
required to continue to make advances in accordance with this Section 4.02
with
respect to such Balloon Loan in an amount equal to one month’s interest on the
unpaid principal balance at the applicable Pass-Through Rate for each
Distribution Date to the extent the Servicer deems such amount to be
recoverable. The Servicer’s obligation to make any advance or advances described
in this Section 4.02 is effective only to the extent that such advance is,
in
the good faith judgment of the Servicer made not later than the second Business
Day prior to each Distribution Date, reimbursable from Insurance Proceeds or
Liquidation Proceeds of the related Mortgage Loans or recoverable as late
Monthly Payments with respect to the related Mortgage Loans or
otherwise.
Prior
to
the close of business on the second Business Day prior to each Distribution
Date, the Servicer shall determine whether or not it will make a Monthly P&I
Advance not later than the Business Day prior to such Distribution Date and
shall furnish a written statement to the Trustee, the Paying Agent, if any,
and
to any Certificateholder requesting the same, setting forth the aggregate amount
to be advanced on account of principal and interest in respect of the Mortgage
Loans, stated separately.
In
the
event that the Servicer shall be required to make a Monthly P&I Advance, it
shall, not later than the Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date
either (i) deposit in the Custodial Account for P&I an amount equal to such
Monthly P&I Advance, (ii) make an appropriate entry in the records of the
Custodial Account for P&I that funds in such account being held for future
distribution or withdrawal have been, as permitted by this Section 4.02, used
by
the Servicer to make such Monthly P&I Advance or (iii) make advances in the
form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the amount of such Monthly
P&I Advance. Any funds being held for future distribution and so used shall
be replaced by the Servicer by deposit in the Custodial Account for P&I not
later than the Business Day prior to any future Distribution Date to the extent
that funds otherwise available for distribution on such Distribution Date with
respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be less than payments required to be made
hereunder on such Distribution Date.
121

noon New York City time two Business Days prior to each Distribution Date,
the

4.03. Nonrecoverable
Advances.
Any
advance previously made by the Servicer that the Servicer shall determine in
its
good faith judgment not to be ultimately recoverable from Insurance Proceeds
or
Liquidation Proceeds or otherwise with respect to such Mortgage Loan or
recoverable as late Monthly Payments with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall
be
a Nonrecoverable Advance. The determination by the Servicer that it has made

the
Servicer shall not be obligated to, and shall not, make any advance that, after
reasonable inquiry and in its sole discretion, the Servicer shall determine
would be a Nonrecoverable Advance and (b) the Servicer shall be entitled to
reimbursement for any advance as provided in Section 3.05(a)(i) and (ii) of
this
Agreement.

Transferee, that it is not acquiring its Ownership Interest in the Residual
Certificate that is the subject of the proposed Transfer as a nominee, trustee
or agent for any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee, that for so long
as
it retains its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, it will endeavor
to

Section 5.01(c) and agrees to be bound by them, and (2) a certificate, attached
hereto as Exhibit I, from the Holder wishing to transfer the Residual
Certificate, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, representing
and

(iii) (A) If
any
“disqualified organization” (as defined in Section 860E(e)(5) of the Code) shall
become a holder of a Residual Certificate, then the last preceding Permitted
Transferee shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights
and
obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such
Transfer of such Residual Certificate. If any Non-U.S. Person shall become
a
holder of a Residual Certificate, then the last preceding holder which is a
U.S.
Person shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and
obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of the
Transfer to such Non-U.S. Person of such Residual Certificate. If a transfer
of
a Residual Certificate is disregarded pursuant to the provisions of Treasury
Regulations Section 1.860E-1 or Section 1.860G-3, then the last preceding
Permitted Transferee shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to
all
rights and obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration
of such Transfer of such Residual Certificate. Neither the Trust nor the Trustee
shall be under any liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer
of a
Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 5.01(c)
or
for making any payments due on such Certificate to the holder thereof or for
taking any other action with respect to such holder under the provisions of
this
Agreement.
(B) If
any
purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate in
violation of the restrictions in this Section 5.01(c) and to the extent that
the
retroactive restoration of the rights of the Holder of such Residual Certificate
as described in clause (iii)(A) above shall be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, then the Company shall have the right, without notice to the
Holder or any prior Holder of such Residual Certificate, to sell such Residual
Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Company on such terms as the Company
may choose. Such purported Transferee shall promptly endorse and deliver each
Residual Certificate in accordance with the instructions of the Company. Such
purchaser may be the Company itself or any affiliate of the Company. The
proceeds of such sale, net of the commissions (which may include commissions
payable to the Company or its affiliates), expenses and taxes due, if any,
shall
be remitted by the Company to such purported Transferee. The terms and
conditions of any sale under this clause (iii)(B) shall be determined in the
sole discretion of the Company, and the Company shall not be liable to any
Person having an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate as a result of
its
exercise of such discretion.
128
(iv) The
Servicer shall make available, upon written request from the Trustee, all
information necessary to compute any tax imposed (A) as a result of the Transfer
of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any Person who is not
a
Permitted Transferee, including the information regarding “excess inclusions” of
such Residual Certificates required to be provided to the Internal Revenue
Service and certain Persons as described in Treasury Regulation Section
1.860D-1(b)(5), and (B) as a result of any regulated investment company, real
estate investment trust, common trust fund, partnership, trust, estate or
organizations described in Section 1381 of the Code having as among its record
holders at any time any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee. Reasonable
compensation for providing such information may be required by the Servicer
from
such Person.
(v) The
provisions of this Section 5.01 set forth prior to this Section (v) may be
modified, added to or eliminated by the Company, the Servicer and the Trustee,
provided that there shall have been delivered to the Trustee the
following:
(A) written
notification from each of the Rating Agencies to the effect that the
modification, addition to or elimination of such provisions will not cause
such
Rating Agency to downgrade its then-current Ratings of the Certificates;
and
(B) an
Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company (as
evidenced by a certificate of the Company), to the effect that such
modification, addition to or absence of such provisions will not cause REMIC
I,
REMIC II, REMIC III and REMIC IV to cease to qualify as a REMIC and will not
create a risk that (1) REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III and REMIC IV may be subject
to an entity-level tax caused by the Transfer of any Residual Certificate to
a
Person which is not a Permitted Transferee or (2) a Certificateholder or another
Person will be subject to a REMIC-related tax caused by the Transfer of a
Residual Certificate to a Person which is not a Permitted
Transferee.
(vi) The
following legend shall appear on all Residual Certificates:
ANY
RESALE, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE MADE ONLY
IF
THE PROPOSED TRANSFEREE PROVIDES A TRANSFER AFFIDAVIT TO THE COMPANY AND THE
TRUSTEE THAT (1) SUCH TRANSFEREE IS NOT EITHER (A) THE UNITED STATES, ANY STATE
OR POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF, ANY FOREIGN GOVERNMENT, ANY INTERNATIONAL
ORGANIZATION, OR ANY AGENCY OR INSTRUMENTALITY OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING, (B)
ANY
ORGANIZATION (OTHER THAN A COOPERATIVE DESCRIBED IN SECTION 521 OF THE CODE)
WHICH IS EXEMPT FROM THE TAX IMPOSED BY CHAPTER 1 OF THE CODE UNLESS SUCH
ORGANIZATION IS SUBJECT TO THE TAX IMPOSED BY SECTION 511 OF THE CODE, (C)
ANY
ORGANIZATION DESCRIBED IN
129
SECTION
1381(a)(2)(C) OF THE CODE (ANY SUCH PERSON DESCRIBED IN THE FOREGOING CLAUSES
(A), (B), OR (C) BEING HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AS A “DISQUALIFIED
ORGANIZATION”), OR (D) AN AGENT OF A DISQUALIFIED ORGANIZATION AND (2) NO
PURPOSE OF SUCH TRANSFER IS TO ENABLE THE TRANSFEROR TO IMPEDE THE ASSESSMENT
OR
COLLECTION OF TAX. SUCH AFFIDAVIT SHALL INCLUDE CERTAIN REPRESENTATIONS AS
TO
THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE PROPOSED TRANSFEREE. NOTWITHSTANDING THE
REGISTRATION IN THE CERTIFICATE REGISTER OF ANY TRANSFER, SALE OR OTHER
DISPOSITION OF THIS CLASS R CERTIFICATE TO A DISQUALIFIED ORGANIZATION OR AN
AGENT OF A DISQUALIFIED ORGANIZATION, SUCH REGISTRATION SHALL BE DEEMED TO
BE OF
NO LEGAL FORCE OR EFFECT WHATSOEVER AND SUCH PERSON SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO
BE A
CERTIFICATEHOLDER FOR ANY PURPOSE HEREUNDER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
THE
RECEIPT OF DISTRIBUTIONS ON THIS CERTIFICATE. EACH HOLDER OF THE CLASS R
CERTIFICATE BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS CERTIFICATE SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE CONSENTED
TO THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH.
(vii) The
Tax
Matters Person for each of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III and REMIC IV, while
not
a Disqualified Organization, shall be the tax matters person for the related
REMIC within the meaning of Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code and Treasury
Regulation Section 1.860F-4(d).
(d) In
the
case of any Junior Subordinate Certificate presented for registration in the
name of any Person, the Trustee shall require (i) an officer’s certificate
substantially in the form of Exhibit N attached hereto acceptable to and in
form
and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Company, which officer’s
certificate shall not be an expense of the Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware
Trustee, the Servicer or the Company, and (ii) only if such officer’s
certificate indicates that a Benefit Plan Opinion is delivered in connection
therewith, a Benefit Plan Opinion.
In
the
case of any Residual Certificate presented for registration in the name of
any
Person, the Trustee shall require (i) a Transferee Affidavit and Agreement
which
includes the representation set forth in paragraph 19 of the form attached
hereto as Exhibit J and (ii) only if the representation set forth in such
paragraph 19 indicates that a Benefit Plan Opinion is delivered in connection
therewith, a Benefit Plan Opinion.
(e) No
transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of a Junior Subordinate Certificate
shall be made unless such transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is made
in
accordance with this Section 5.01(e) or Section 5.01(f). Each Person who, at
any
time, acquires any ownership interest in any Junior Subordinate Certificate
shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such ownership interest
to
have agreed to be bound by the following provisions of this Section 5.01(e)
and
Section 5.01(f), as applicable. No transfer of a Junior Subordinate Certificate
shall be deemed to be made in accordance with this Section 5.01(e) unless such
transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the
Securities Act or unless the Trustee is provided with the certificates and
an
Opinion of Counsel, if required, on which the Trustee may conclusively rely,
to
the effect that such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements
under
the Securities Act, as follows. In the event that a transfer is to be made
in
reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act, the Trustee shall require,
in order to assure compliance with the Securities Act, that the
Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer certify to the Trustee and
the Trust in writing, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit
F,
the facts surrounding the transfer, with such modifications to such Exhibit
F as
may be appropriate to reflect the actual facts of the proposed transfer, and
that the Certificateholder’s proposed transferee certify to the Trustee and the
Trust in writing, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit G, the
facts surrounding the transfer, with such modifications to such Exhibit G as
may
be appropriate to reflect the actual facts of the proposed transfer. If such
certificate of the proposed transferee does not contain substantially the
substance of Exhibit G, the Trustee shall require an Opinion of Counsel that
such transfer may be made without registration, which Opinion of Counsel shall
not be obtained at the expense of the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Trust,
the Servicer or the Company. Such Opinion of Counsel shall allow for the
forwarding of, and the Trustee shall forward, a copy thereof to the Rating
Agencies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Junior Subordinate Certificate
may
be transferred, sold, pledged or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the
requirements set forth in Section 5.01(f).
130
(f) To
effectuate a transfer of a Junior Subordinate Certificate in accordance with
this Section 5.01(f), the proposed transferee of such Certificate must provide
the Trustee and the Company with an investment letter substantially in the
form
of Exhibit L attached hereto, which investment letter shall not be an expense
of
the Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee or the Company, and which
investment letter states that, among other things, such transferee (i) is a
“qualified institutional buyer” as defined under Rule 144A, acting for its own
account or the accounts of other “qualified institutional buyers” as defined
under Rule 144A, and (ii) is aware that the proposed transferor intends to
rely
on the exemption from registration requirements under the Securities Act
provided by Rule 144A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the proposed transferee
of
such Certificate shall not be required to provide the Trustee or the Company
with Annex 1 or Annex 2 to the form of Exhibit L attached hereto if the Company
so consents prior to each such transfer. Such transfers shall be deemed to
have
complied with the requirements of this Section 5.01(f). The Holder of a
Certificate desiring to effect such transfer does hereby agree to indemnify
the
Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Servicer, the Company, and the
Certificate Registrar against any liability that may result if transfer is
not
made in accordance with this Agreement.
(g) (1) In
the
case of any ERISA Restricted Certificate presented for registration in the
name
of any Person, the prospective transferee shall be required to provide the
Trustee and the Company (A) an officer’s certificate substantially in the form
of Exhibit O attached hereto acceptable to and in form and substance
satisfactory to the Trustee and the Company, which officer’s certificate shall
not be an expense of the Trust, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee
or the Company, and (B) only if such officer’s certificate indicates that a
Benefit Plan Opinion is delivered in connection therewith, a Benefit Plan
Opinion.
(2) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, a certification (and, if applicable, a Benefit Plan Opinion)
as
described in Section 5.01(g)(1) above will not be required with respect to
the
transfer of any ERISA Restricted Certificate to a Clearing Agency, or for any
subsequent transfer of any interest in a ERISA Restricted Certificate for so
long as such Certificate is a Book-Entry Certificate (each such ERISA Restricted
Certificate, a “Book-Entry
ERISA Restricted Certificate”).
Any
transferee of a Book-Entry ERISA Restricted Certificate will be deemed to have
represented, by virtue of its acquisition or holding of such Certificate (or
interest therein), that either (i) such transferee is not an employee benefit
or
other plan subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code, or any person (including an investment manager, a named
fiduciary or a trustee of any such plan) acting, directly or indirectly, on
behalf of or purchasing such Certificate with “plan assets” of any such plan (a
“Plan
Investor”),
(ii)
such transferee is an insurance company, the source of funds to be used by
it to
acquire or hold such Certificate is an “insurance company general account”
(within the meaning of Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class
Exemption (“PTCE”)
95-60), and the conditions in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been
satisfied (each entity that satisfies this clause (ii), a “Complying
Insurance Company”)
or
(iii) such Certificate was rated “BBB-” or better (or its equivalent) by at
least one of the Rating Agencies at the time of such transferee’s acquisition of
such Certificate (or interest therein).
131
(3) If
any
Book-Entry ERISA Restricted Certificate (or any interest therein) is acquired
or
held in violation of the provisions of Section 5.01(g)(2) above, then the last
preceding transferee that either (i) is not a Plan Investor, (ii) is a Complying
Insurance Company or (iii) acquired such Certificate at a time when such
Certificate was rated “BBB-” or better (or its equivalent) by at least one of
the Rating Agencies shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all
rights and obligations as Beneficial Holder thereof retroactive to the date
of
transfer of such Certificate by such preceding transferee. Neither the Trust
nor
the Trustee shall be under any liability to any Person for making any payments
due on such Certificate to such preceding transferee.
(4) Any
purported Beneficial Holder whose acquisition or holding of any Book-Entry
ERISA
Restricted Certificate (or interest therein) was effected in violation of the
restrictions in this Section 5.01(g) shall indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Servicer, the Trust and each
Underwriter from and against any and all liabilities, claims, costs or expenses
incurred by such parties as a result of such acquisition or
holding.
(h) (1) In
the
case of any Class C-PPP or Class 3-PPP Certificate presented for registration
in
the name of any Person, the prospective transferee shall be required to provide
the Trustee and the Company (A) an officer’s certificate substantially in the
form of Exhibit P attached hereto acceptable to and in form and substance
satisfactory to the Trustee and the Company, which officer’s certificate shall
not be an expense of the Trust, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee
or the Company, and (B) only if such officer’s certificate indicates that a
Benefit Plan Opinion is delivered in connection therewith, a Benefit Plan
Opinion.
(2) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, a certification (and, if applicable, a Benefit Plan Opinion)
as
described in Section 5.01(h)(1) above will not be required with respect to
the
transfer of any Class C-PPP or Class 3-PPP Certificate to a Clearing Agency,
or
for any subsequent transfer of any interest in a Class C-PPP or Class 3-PPP
Certificate for so long as such Certificate is a Book-Entry Certificate (each
such Class C-PPP or Class 3-PPP Certificate, a “Book-Entry
Class C-PPP or Class 3-PPP Certificate”).
Any
transferee of a Book-Entry Class C-PPP or Class 3-PPP Certificate will be deemed
to have represented, by virtue of its acquisition or holding of such Certificate
(or interest therein), that such transferee is not an employee benefit or other
plan subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975
of the Code, or any person (including an investment manager, a named fiduciary
or a trustee of any such plan) acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of
or
purchasing such Certificate with “plan assets” of any such plan (a “Plan
Investor”).
132
(3) If
any
Book-Entry Class C-PPP or Class 3-PPP Certificate (or any interest therein)
is
acquired or held in violation of the provisions of Section 5.01(h)(2) above,
then the last preceding transferee that is not a Plan Investor shall be
restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as
Beneficial Holder thereof retroactive to the date of transfer of such
Certificate by such preceding transferee. Neither the Trust nor the Trustee
shall be under any liability to any Person for making any payments due on such
Certificate to such preceding transferee.
(4) Any
purported Beneficial Holder whose acquisition or holding of any Book-Entry
Class
C-PPP or Class 3-PPP Certificate (or interest therein) was effected in violation
of the restrictions in this Section 5.01(h) shall indemnify and hold harmless
the Company, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Servicer, the Trust and
each
Underwriter from and against any and all liabilities, claims, costs or expenses
incurred by such parties as a result of such acquisition or
holding.
Section

Issuable in Classes; Distributions of Principal and Interest; Authorized
Denominations.
The
aggregate principal amount of the Certificates that may be authenticated and
delivered under this Agreement is limited to the aggregate Principal Balance
of
the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-Off Date, as specified in the Preliminary
Statement to this Agreement, except for Certificates authenticated and delivered
upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other
Certificates pursuant to Section 5.03. Such aggregate principal amount shall
be
allocated among one or more Classes having designations, types of interests,
initial per annum Certificate Interest Rates, initial Class Principal Balances
and Final Maturity Dates as specified in the Preliminary Statement to this
Agreement. The aggregate Percentage Interest of each Class of Certificates
of
which the Class Principal Balance equals zero as of the Cut-Off Date that may
be

Certificates shall be issued in Authorized Denominations.
Section
5.03. Registration
of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
The
Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall cause to be maintained at one of its
offices or at its designated agent, a Certificate Register in which there shall
be recorded the name and address of each Certificateholder. Subject to such
reasonable rules and regulations as the Trustee may prescribe, the Certificate
Register shall be amended from time to time by the Trustee or its agent to
reflect notice of any changes received by the Trustee or its agent pursuant
to
Section 10.06. The Trustee hereby appoints itself as the initial Certificate
Registrar.
Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate to the Trustee at
the
Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or such other address or agency as may
hereafter be provided to the Servicer in writing by the Trustee, the Trustee
on
behalf of the Trust shall execute, and the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent
shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or
transferees, one or more new Certificates of Authorized Denominations. At the
option of the Certificateholders, Certificates may be exchanged for other
Certificates in Authorized Denominations of like Certificate Principal Balance
or Percentage Interest, as applicable, upon surrender of the Certificates to
be
exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any Certificates are so
surrendered for exchange, the Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute,
and
the Trustee, or any Authenticating Agent, shall authenticate and deliver, the
Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to
receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for transfer shall be duly
endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent and duly executed by,
the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in
writing.
133
A
reasonable service charge may be made for any such exchange or transfer of
Certificates, and the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any
exchange or transfer of Certificates.
All
Certificates surrendered for exchange or transfer shall be cancelled by the
Trustee or any Authenticating Agent.
Section
5.04. Mutilated,
Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.
If (i)
any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee or any Authenticating
Agent, or (ii) the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent receives evidence to
their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and
there is delivered to the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent such security
or
indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them and the Trust
harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee or any Authenticating
Agent that such Certificate has been acquired by a protected purchaser, the
Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute and the Trustee or any
Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in
lieu
of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate
of like Certificate Principal Balance or Percentage Interest as applicable.
Upon
the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 5.04, the Trustee or
any
Authenticating Agent may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and
any
other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee or any
Authenticating Agent) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued
pursuant to this Section 5.04 shall constitute complete and indefeasible
evidence of a beneficial interest in the Trust as if originally issued, whether
or not the lost or stolen Certificate shall be found at any time.
Section
5.05. Persons
Deemed Owners.
The
Company, the Servicer, the Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and any
agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is
registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving
distributions pursuant to Section 4.01 and Section 4.05 and for all other
purposes whatsoever, and none of the Company, the Servicer, the Trust, the
Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any agent thereof
shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
Section
5.06. [Reserved.]
134
Section
5.07. Book-Entry
for Book-Entry Certificates.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Book-Entry Certificates, upon original
issuance, shall be issued in the form of one or more word-processed Certificates
of Authorized Denomination representing the Book-Entry Certificates, to be
delivered to DTC, the initial Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of, the Company.
The Book-Entry Certificates shall initially be registered on the Certificate
Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of DTC, as the initial
Clearing Agency, and no Beneficial Holder shall receive a definitive certificate
representing such Beneficial Holder’s interest in any Class of Book-Entry
Certificate, except as provided above and in Section 5.09. Each Book-Entry
Certificate shall bear the following legend:
Unless
this Certificate is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository
Trust Company, a New York corporation (“DTC”),
to
the Trust or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange, or payment,
and
any Certificate issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or such other
name as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC (and any payment
is
made to Cede & Co. 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 inasmuch as the registered owner
hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein.
Unless
and until definitive, fully registered Book-Entry Certificates (the
“Definitive
Certificates”)
have
been issued to the Beneficial Holders pursuant to Section 5.09:
(a) the
provisions of this Section 5.07 shall be in full force and effect with respect
to the Book-Entry Certificates;
(b) the
Servicer and the Trustee may deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes
with
respect to the Book-Entry Certificates (including the making of distributions
on
the Book-Entry Certificates) as the sole Certificateholder;
(c) to
the
extent that the provisions of this Section 5.07 conflict with any other
provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 5.07 shall control;
and
(d) the
rights of the Beneficial Holders shall be exercised only through the Clearing
Agency and the DTC Participants and shall be limited to those established by
law
and agreements between such Beneficial Holders and the Clearing Agency and/or
the DTC Participants. Pursuant to the Depositary Agreement, unless and until
Definitive Certificates are issued pursuant to Section 5.09, the initial
Clearing Agency will make book-entry transfers among the DTC Participants and
receive and transmit distributions of principal and interest on the related
Class of Book-Entry Certificates to such DTC Participants.
For
purposes of any provision of this Agreement requiring or permitting actions
with
the consent of, or at the direction of, Holders of Book-Entry Certificates
evidencing a specified Percentage Interest, such direction or consent may be
given by the Clearing Agency at the direction of Beneficial Holders owning
Book-Entry Certificates evidencing the requisite Percentage Interest represented
by the Book-Entry Certificates. The Clearing Agency may take conflicting actions
with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates to the extent that such actions
are
taken on behalf of the Beneficial Holders.
135
Section
5.08. Notices
to Clearing Agency.
Whenever notice or other communication to the Certificateholders is required
under this Agreement, unless and until Definitive Certificates shall have been
issued to the related Certificateholders pursuant to Section 5.09, the Trustee
shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given
to
Holders of the Book-Entry Certificates to the Clearing Agency which shall give
such notices and communications to the related DTC Participants in accordance
with its applicable rules, regulations and procedures.
Section
5.09. Definitive
Certificates.
If (a)
the Clearing Agency or the Servicer notifies the Trustee in writing that the
Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its
responsibilities under the Depositary Agreement with respect to the Book-Entry
Certificates and the Trustee or the Servicer is unable to locate a qualified
successor, (b) the Servicer, to the extent permitted by law, advises the Trustee
in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system with respect to
the
Book-Entry Certificates through the Clearing Agency or (c) after the occurrence
of an Event of Default, Certificateholders holding Book-Entry Certificates
evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 66⅔% of the aggregate
Class Principal Balance of such Certificates advise the Trustee and the Clearing
Agency through DTC Participants in writing that the continuation of a book-entry
system with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates through the Clearing Agency
is no longer in the best interests of the Certificateholders with respect to
such Certificates, the Trustee shall notify all Certificateholders of Book-Entry
Certificates of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of
Definitive Certificates. Upon surrender to the Trustee of the Book-Entry
Certificates by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions
from the Clearing Agency for registration, the Trustee on behalf of the Trust
shall execute and the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall authenticate
and
deliver the Definitive Certificates. Neither the Company, the Servicer, the
Trust nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such
instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying
on,
such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates for all of
the
Certificates all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be
performed by the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to be imposed upon and
performed by the Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such
Definitive Certificates, and the Trustee shall recognize the Holders of
Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.
Section
5.10. Office
for Transfer of Certificates.
The
Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall maintain an office or agency where
Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The
Corporate Trust Office is initially designated for said purposes.
Section
5.11. Nature
of Certificates.
The
Certificates shall be personal property giving only the rights specifically
set
forth therein and in this Agreement. The Certificates shall have no preemptive
or similar rights and when issued and delivered to the Holders against payment
of the purchase price therefor will be fully paid and nonassessable by the
Trust. The Holders of the Certificates, in their capacities as such, shall
be
entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to stockholders
of private corporations for profit organized under the General Corporation
Law
of the State of Delaware. THE RECEIPT AND ACCEPTANCE OF A CERTIFICATE OR ANY
INTEREST THEREIN BY OR ON BEHALF OF A HOLDER OR ANY BENEFICIAL OWNER, WITHOUT
ANY SIGNATURE OR FURTHER MANIFESTATION OF ASSENT, SHALL CONSTITUTE THE
UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE BY THE HOLDER AND ALL OTHERS HAVING A BENEFICIAL
INTEREST IN SUCH CERTIFICATE OF ALL THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT,
AND SHALL CONSTITUTE THE AGREEMENT OF THE TRUST, SUCH HOLDER AND SUCH OTHERS
THAT THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE BINDING, OPERATIVE
AND
EFFECTIVE AS BETWEEN THE TRUST AND SUCH HOLDER AND SUCH OTHERS.

not incidental to its duties related to the Mortgage Loans in accordance with
this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or
liability; provided,
however,
that
each of the Company and the Servicer may in its discretion undertake any such
action which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to the Mortgage
Loans, this Agreement, the Certificates or the rights and duties of the parties
hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event,
the
legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom
shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust and the Company and the
Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed, as applicable, therefor out of
the
Certificate Account, as provided by Section 3.05.
137
Section
6.04. Neither
the Company nor the Servicer May Resign.
Neither
the Company nor the Servicer shall resign from its respective obligations and
duties hereby imposed on it, as applicable, except upon determination by the
Company or the Servicer that its respective duties hereunder are no longer
permissible under applicable law. Any such determination permitting the
resignation of the Company or the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion
of
Counsel to such effect delivered to the Trustee. No such resignation shall
become effective until the Trustee or a successor Servicer shall have assumed
the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations in accordance with Section 7.02
hereof.
The
Servicer shall give prompt written notice to the Company of any information
received by the Servicer which affects or relates to an ongoing obligation
or
right of the Company under this Agreement.

Access.
The
Servicer shall afford the Company and the Trustee, upon reasonable notice,
during normal business hours access to all records maintained by the Servicer,
in respect of the Mortgage Loans and in respect of its rights and obligations
hereunder and access to such of its officers as are responsible for such
obligations. Upon reasonable request, the Servicer, shall furnish the Company
and the Trustee with its most recent financial statements (or, for so long
as
Washington
Mutual Bank
is the
Servicer, the most recent consolidated financial statements for Washington
Mutual Bank
appearing in the audited financial statements of Washington Mutual, Inc., or
the
entity with whose financial statements the financial statements of Washington
Mutual Bank are consolidated) and such other information as it possesses, and
which it is not prohibited by law or, to the extent applicable, binding
obligations to third parties with respect to confidentiality, from disclosing,
regarding its business, affairs, property and condition, financial or otherwise.

VII
Default
Section
7.01. Events
of Default.
(a) In
case one or more of the following Events of Default by the Servicer shall occur
and be continuing, that is to say:
(i) Any
failure by the Servicer to deposit into the Certificate Account any payment
required to be deposited therein by the Servicer under the terms of this
Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of five Business Days after
the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be
remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Trustee or to the
Servicer and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates evidencing Percentage
Interests aggregating not less than 25% of REMIC IV; or
138
(ii) Failure
on the part of the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect
any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Servicer contained
in the Certificates or in this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period
of 60 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring
the
same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Trustee,
or to
the Servicer and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates evidencing
Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 25% of REMIC IV; or
(iii) A
decree
or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction
in
the premises for the appointment of a trustee, conservator, receiver or
liquidator in any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling
of
assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or
liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer and
such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed
for a
period of 60 days; or
(iv) The
Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a trustee, conservator, receiver
or
liquidator in any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling
of
assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Servicer
or
of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or
(v) The
Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as
they
become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of
its
creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or
(vi) Any
failure of the Servicer to make any Monthly P&I Advance (other than a
Nonrecoverable Advance) which continues unremedied at the opening of business
on
the Distribution Date in respect of which such Monthly P&I Advance was to
have been made;
then,
and
in each and every such case, so long as an Event of Default shall not have
been
remedied, either the Trustee or the Holders of Certificates evidencing
Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 25% of REMIC IV, by notice in
writing to the Company and the Servicer (and to the Trustee if given by the
Certificateholders, in which case such notice shall set forth evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee that such Event of Default has occurred
and shall not have been remedied) may terminate all of the rights (other than
its right to reimbursement for advances) and obligations of the Servicer,
including its right to the Servicing Fee, under this Agreement. Such
determination shall be final and binding. On or after the receipt by the
Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under
this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans
or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under
this Section 7.01; and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized
and
empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact
or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or
accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the
purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and
endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or
otherwise. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the
termination of the Servicer's responsibilities and rights hereunder, including,
without limitation, the transfer to the Trustee for administration by it of
all
cash amounts which shall at the time be credited by the Servicer to the
Certificate Account or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage
Loans.
139
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if an Event of Default described in clause (vi) of this Section
7.01(a) shall occur, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer,
which may be delivered by telecopy, immediately suspend all of the rights and
obligations of the Servicer thereafter arising under this Agreement, but without
prejudice to any rights it may have as a Certificateholder or to reimbursement
of advances, and the Trustee shall act as provided in Section 7.02 to carry
out
the duties of the Servicer, including the obligation to make any Monthly P&I
Advance the nonpayment of which was an Event of Default described in clause
(vi)
of this Section 7.01(a). Any such action taken by the Trustee must be prior
to the distribution on the relevant Distribution Date. If the Servicer shall
within two Business Days following such suspension remit to the Trustee the
amount of any Monthly P&I Advance (plus interest accrued thereon at a per
annum rate equal to the prime rate for United States money center commercial
banks as published in The
Wall Street Journal)
the
nonpayment of which by the Servicer was an Event of Default described in
clause (vi) of this Section 7.01(a), the Trustee, subject to the last
sentence of this paragraph, shall permit the Servicer to resume its rights
and
obligations as Servicer hereunder. The Servicer agrees that it will reimburse
the Trustee for actual, necessary and reasonable costs incurred by the Trustee
because of action taken pursuant to clause (vi) of this Section 7.01(a). The
Servicer agrees that if an Event of Default as described in clause (vi) of
this
Section 7.01(a) shall occur more than two times in any twelve month period,
the
Trustee shall be under no obligation to permit the Servicer to resume its rights
and obligations as Servicer hereunder.
(b) In
case
one or more of the following Events of Default by the Company shall occur and
be
continuing, that is to say:
(i) Failure
on the part of the Company duly to observe or perform in any material respect
any of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Company contained in
the
Certificates or in this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of
60
days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the
same
to be remedied, shall have been given to the Company by the Trustee, or to
the
Company and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates evidencing Percentage
Interests aggregating not less than 25% of REMIC IV; or
(ii) A
decree
or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction
in
the premises for the appointment of a trustee, conservator, receiver or
liquidator in any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling
of
assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or
liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Company and
such
decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a
period of 60 days; or
140
(iii) The
Company shall consent to the appointment of a trustee, conservator, receiver
or
liquidator in any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling
of
assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Company
or
of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or
(iv) The
Company shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as
they
become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of
creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations;
then,
and
in each and every such case, so long as such Event of Default shall not have
been remedied, the Holders of Certificates evidencing Percentage Interests
aggregating not less than 25% of REMIC IV, by notice in writing to the Company
and the Trustee, may direct the Trustee in accordance with Section 10.03 to
institute an action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder
to
enforce the Company's obligations hereunder.
(c) In
any
circumstances in which this Agreement states that Certificateholders owning
Certificates evidencing a certain Percentage Interest in REMIC IV may take
certain action, such action shall be taken by the Trustee, but only if the
requisite percentage of Certificateholders required under this Agreement for
taking like action or giving like instruction to the Trustee under this
Agreement shall have so directed the Trustee in writing.
Section
7.02. Trustee
to Act; Appointment of Successor.
(a) On
and
after the date on which the Servicer receives a notice of termination pursuant
to Section 7.01 or the Servicer resigns pursuant to Section 6.04, the Trustee
shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer under this Agreement
with
respect to the Mortgage Loans in the Mortgage Pool and with respect to the
transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall have all the rights
and
powers and be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities
relating thereto arising on or after such date of termination or resignation
placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof and thereof, and
shall
have the same limitations on liability herein granted to the Servicer;
provided,
that the
Trustee shall not under any circumstances be responsible for any representations
and warranties or any repurchase obligation of the Company or any liability
incurred by the Servicer prior to such date of termination or resignation and
the Trustee shall not be obligated to make a Monthly P&I Advance if it is
prohibited by law from so doing. As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall
be
entitled to all compensation to which the Servicer would have been entitled
if
the Servicer had continued to act hereunder. Notwithstanding the above, the
Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall if it is unable to
so
act, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any
established housing and home finance institution having a net worth of not
less
than $10,000,000 as the successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption
of
all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer
hereunder. Pending any such appointment, the Trustee is obligated to act in
such
capacity. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may
make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments
on
Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided,
however,
that no
such compensation shall, together with the compensation to the Trustee, be
in
excess of that permitted the Servicer hereunder. The Trustee and such successor
shall take such actions, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary
to effectuate any such succession.
141
(b) In
connection with any termination or resignation of the Servicer hereunder, in
the
event that any of the Mortgage Loans are MERS Loans, either (i) the successor
Servicer (including the Trustee if the Trustee is acting as successor Servicer)
shall represent and warrant that it is a member of MERS in good standing and
shall agree to comply in all material respects with the rules and procedures
of
MERS in connection with the servicing of the MERS Loans, in which case the
predecessor Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Servicer in registering
the transfer of servicing of the MERS Loans to the successor Servicer on the
MERS® System in accordance with MERS’ rules and procedures, or (ii) if the
successor Servicer is not a member of MERS, the predecessor Servicer shall
cooperate with the successor Servicer in (A) de-registering the MERS Loans
from
the MERS® System and (B) causing MERS to execute and deliver an assignment from
MERS to the Trust of the Mortgage securing each MERS Loan in recordable form
and
in the form otherwise provided under clause (X)(iii) of the definition of
“Mortgage File” herein and to execute and deliver such other notices, documents
and other instruments as may be necessary or desirable to effect such
de-registration and assignment. The predecessor Servicer shall bear any and
all
fees of MERS and all fees and costs of preparing and recording any assignments
of Mortgages as required under this Section 7.02(b).
Section
7.03. Notification
to Certificateholders.
Upon
any such termination or appointment of a successor to the Servicer, the Trustee
shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Certificateholders at their
respective addresses appearing in the Certificate Register.

of Trustees.
(a) The
Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing
of
all Events of Default which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties
and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. In case
an
Event of Default has occurred (which has not been cured or waived) the Trustee
shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement,
and
use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own
affairs.
(b) The
Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions,
reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to it which are
specifically required to be furnished to it pursuant to any provision of this
Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they are in the form required
by this Agreement; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be responsible
for the accuracy or content of any such certificate, statement, opinion, report,
or other order or instrument furnished by the Company or Servicer to the Trustee
pursuant to this Agreement.
142
(c) No
provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee or the
Delaware Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent
failure to act or its own willful misconduct; provided, however,
that:
(i) Prior
to
the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing of all such Events
of
Default which may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee
shall
be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement,
(ii) Neither
the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be liable except for the performance
of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement,
no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against
the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, and, in the absence of bad faith on the
part of the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, such trustee may conclusively
rely,
as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed
therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to such trustee and
conforming to the requirements of this Agreement; and
(iii) Neither
the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be personally liable with respect
to
any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with
the direction of the Certificateholders holding Certificates which evidence
Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 25% of REMIC IV relating to
the
time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available
to
such trustee, or relating to the exercise of any trust or power conferred upon
such trustee under this Agreement.
(d) Within
ten Business Days after the occurrence of any Event of Default known to the
Trustee, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to the Rating Agencies notice of
each Event of Default. Within 90 days after the occurrence of any Event of
Default known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all
Certificateholders (with a copy to the Rating Agencies) notice of each Event
of
Default, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived; provided,
however, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so
long as a Responsible Officer of the Trustee in good faith determines that
the
withholding of such notice is in the best interests of the Certificateholders;
and provided, further, that in the case of any Event of Default of the character
specified in Section 7.01(i) or Section 7.01(ii) no such notice to
Certificateholders or to the Rating Agencies shall be given until at least
30
days after the occurrence thereof.
Section
8.02. Certain
Matters Affecting the Trustees.
Except
as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
(i) Each
of
the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may request and rely upon and shall be
protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officer’s
Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond
or
other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed
or
presented by the proper party or parties;
143
(ii) Each
of
the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may consult with counsel and any Opinion
of
Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect
of
any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in
accordance with such Opinion of Counsel;
(iii) Neither
the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be personally liable for any action
taken or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be
authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by

to
the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder and after the curing of all
Events of Default which may have occurred, neither the Trustee nor the Delaware
Trustee shall be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters
stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report,
notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document,
unless requested in writing to do so by the Holders of Certificates evidencing
Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 25% of REMIC IV; provided,
however,
that if
the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee
of
the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making
of
such investigation is, in the opinion of such trustee, not reasonably assured
to
such trustee by the security, if any, afforded to it by the terms of this
Agreement, such trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such expense
or
liability as a condition to proceeding;
(v) Each
of
the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may execute the trust or any of the powers
hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through
agents or attorneys selected by it with reasonable care or (as in the case
of
the Initial Custodian) designated by the Servicer;
(vi) Neither
the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice
of any matter, including without limitation an Event of Default, unless actually
known by a Responsible Officer, or unless written notice thereof referencing
this Agreement or the Certificates is received at the Notice Address of such
trustee;
(vii) In
no
event shall the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee be held liable for acts or
omissions of the Servicer or the other trustee (excepting the Trustee’s own
actions as Servicer). No provision of this Agreement shall require the Trustee
or the Delaware Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur
any
financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder (except
for the giving of required notices), or in the exercise of any of its rights
or
powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing the repayment of
such
funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably
assured to it;
(viii) When
the
Trustee is acting as Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02, and to the extent
permitted under applicable law, the Trustee is hereby authorized, in making
or
disposing of any investment permitted hereunder, to deal with itself (in its
individual capacity) or with any one or more of its affiliates, whether it
or
its affiliate is acting as an agent of the Trustee or of any third person or
dealing as principal for its own account; and
144
(ix) Except
as
expressly provided in this Agreement, in no event shall the Trustee be under
any
duty or obligation to monitor, determine, investigate or compel compliance
by
the Trust with the requirements of the Statutory Trust Statute.
(x) Except
as
provided in Section 8.18 of this Agreement, in no event shall the Trustee be
obligated or responsible for preparing, executing, filing or delivering in
respect of the Trust or another party either (A) any report or filing required
by the Commission to be prepared, executed, filed or delivered in respect of
the
Trust or another party or (B) any certification in respect of a report or filing
required by the Commission.
Section
8.03. Trustees
Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.
The
recitals contained herein (other than those relating to the due organization,
power and authority of the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee) and in the
Certificates (other than the execution of, and certificate of authentication
on,
the Certificates) shall not be taken as the statements of the Trustee or the
Delaware Trustee, and neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee assumes
any
responsibility for their correctness. Neither the Trustee nor the Delaware
Trustee makes any representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this
Agreement, the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or of the Certificates or any
Mortgage Loan. Neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be accountable
for the use or application by the Company, the Servicer or the Trust, as
applicable, of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates,
or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Servicer or the Company
in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited into the Custodial Accounts for
P&I, any Buydown Fund Account, the Investment Account or the Certificate
Account by the Servicer or the Company.
Section
8.04. Trustees
May Own Certificates.
The
Trustee, the Delaware Trustee or any agent or affiliate of such trustee, in
its
individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of
Certificates with the same rights it would have if it were not
trustee.
Section
8.05. The
Servicer to Pay Trustees’ Fees and Expenses.
Subject
to separate written agreements with the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee, the
Servicer covenants and agrees to, and the Servicer shall, pay each of the
Trustee and the Delaware Trustee from time to time, and such trustee shall
be
entitled to payment, for all services rendered by it in the execution of the
trust hereby created and in the exercise and performance of any of the powers
and duties hereunder of such trustee. Except as otherwise expressly provided
herein, the Servicer shall pay or reimburse each of the Trustee and the Delaware
Trustee upon such trustee’s request for all reasonable expenses and
disbursements incurred or made by such trustee in accordance with any of the
provisions of this Agreement, including any such expenses incurred or made
in
connection with a transfer of servicing, and shall indemnify the institution
acting as such trustee, both in its individual capacity and as trustee, from
any
loss, liability or expense incurred by it hereunder (including the reasonable
compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all
persons not regularly in its employ and any expenses which arise out of or
are
imposed upon the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee in connection with the
creation, operation or termination of the Trust) except any such expense or
disbursement as may arise from its own negligence or bad faith. Such obligation
shall survive the termination of this Agreement or resignation or removal of
the
Trustee or the Delaware Trustee. The Servicer shall, at its expense, prepare
or
cause to be prepared all federal and state income tax and franchise tax and
information returns relating to REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC IV
required to be prepared or filed by the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee and
shall indemnify the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee for any liability of such
trustees arising from any error in such returns.

The

(ii) a Corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United
States of America or of any state, authorized under such laws to exercise
corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than
$50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authority and (iii) acceptable to the Rating Agencies. If such Corporation
publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
requirements of any aforementioned supervising or examining authority, then
for
the purposes of this Section 8.06, the combined capital and surplus of such
Corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth
in its most recent report of condition so published. The Delaware Trustee
hereunder shall at all times have its principal place of business in the State
of Delaware and shall satisfy the applicable requirements under the laws of
the
State of Delaware authorizing it to act as the Delaware trustee of the Trust.
In
case at any time the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall cease to be eligible
in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.06, such trustee shall
resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section
8.07.
Section
8.07. Resignation
and Removal of Trustees.
Each of
the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged
from the trust hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Servicer.
Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Servicer shall promptly appoint
a
successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the resigning trustee and one copy to the
successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and
shall have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice
of resignation, the resigning trustee may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.
If
at any
time the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after
written request therefor by the Servicer, or if at any time the Trustee or
the
Delaware Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt
or insolvent, or a receiver of such trustee or of its property shall be
appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of such trustee
or
of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation
or
liquidation, then the Servicer may remove such trustee and appoint a successor
trustee by written instrument, in triplicate, copies of which instrument shall
be delivered to the trustee so removed, the trustee continuing in its capacity
and the successor trustee.
The
Holders of Certificates evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating more than
50% of REMIC IV may at any time remove the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee
and
appoint a successor trustee by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate,
signed by such Holders or their attorneys in-fact duly authorized, one complete
set of which instruments shall be delivered to the Servicer, one complete set
to
the Trustee so removed and one complete set to the successor so
appointed.
146
Any
resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee and appointment
of
a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07
shall
become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as
provided in Section 8.08. Any expenses associated with the resignation of the
Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall be borne by such trustee, and any expenses
associated with the removal of the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall be
borne by the Servicer.
Section
8.08. Successor
Trustee.
Any
successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Servicer and to its predecessor trustee an
instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation
or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor
trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested
with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor
hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee or Delaware
Trustee herein. The predecessor shall deliver to the successor trustee all
Mortgage Files, related documents, statements and all other property held by
it
hereunder, and the Servicer and the predecessor trustee shall execute and
deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required
for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor trustee
all
such rights, powers, duties and obligations.
No
successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 8.08
unless at the time of such appointment such successor trustee shall be eligible
under the provisions of Section 8.06.
Upon
acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section
8.08, the Servicer shall mail notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder
to (i) all Certificateholders at their addresses as shown in the Certificate
Register and (ii) the Rating Agencies. If the Servicer fails to mail such notice
within ten days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the
successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed.
Section
8.09. Merger
or Consolidation of Trustee.
Any
Corporation into which the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Corporation resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee or the
Delaware Trustee shall be a party, or any Corporation succeeding to the
corporate trust business of such trustee, shall be the successor of such trustee
hereunder, provided such resulting or successor Corporation shall be eligible
under the provisions of Section 8.06, without the execution or filing of any
paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
Section
8.10. Appointment
of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for the purpose of
meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the
assets of the Trust may at the time be located, the Servicer and the Trustee
or
the Delaware Trustee, as applicable, acting jointly shall have the power and
shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons
approved by such trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with
such
trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the
assets of the Trust and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity,
such title to the assets of the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject to
the
other provisions of this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights
and trusts as the Servicer and the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as
applicable, may consider necessary or desirable; provided, that the Trustee
or
the Delaware Trustee, as applicable, shall remain liable for all of its
obligations and duties under this Agreement. If the Servicer shall not have

so to do, or in case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable, alone shall have the power
to make such appointment; provided, that such trustee shall remain liable for

as applicable, and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly and severally,
except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any

Trustee, as applicable, such 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 of the Trust or any
portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed
by
such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the Trustee or the
Delaware Trustee, as applicable.
Any
notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee
shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then related separate
trustee(s) and co-trustee(s), as effectively as if given to each of them. Every

to
this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee
and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested
with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either
jointly with the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable, or separately,

this
Section 8.12, the Trustee may appoint, upon prior written approval of the

to this paragraph, the Trustee shall require an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
that such action is necessary or helpful to comply with the requirements imposed
by the Code or any regulations thereunder and shall not cause any REMIC formed
under this Agreement to fail to qualify as such under the Code. The cost of
any
opinion required by this Section 10.01 shall be borne by the party requesting
such amendment.
(b) This
Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Servicer, the Company
and
the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing
Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 66% of REMIC IV, for the purpose
of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of
the
provisions of, this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the
Certificateholders; provided,
however,
that no
such amendment shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Certificate
affected thereby (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing
of,
distributions of principal or interest required to be made hereunder or reduce
the Certificateholder’s Percentage Interest, the Certificate Interest Rate or
the Termination Payment with respect to any of the Certificates, (ii) reduce
the
percentage of Percentage Interests specified in this Section 10.01 which are
required to amend this Agreement, (iii) create or permit the creation of any
lien against any part of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC IV, or (iv)
modify any provision in any way which would permit an earlier retirement of the
Certificates; provided,
further,
that any
such amendment which modifies the rights or obligations of the Delaware Trustee
hereunder shall require the consent of the Delaware Trustee; provided,
further,
that any
such amendment which modifies the rights of the Class C-PPP Certificateholders
to receive Assigned Group 1 and Group 2 Prepayment Premiums, including any
amendment to Section 3.20, shall require the consent of each Class C-PPP
Certificateholder; provided,
further,
that any
such amendment which modifies the rights of the Class 3-PPP Certificateholders
to receive Assigned Group 3 Prepayment Premiums, including any amendment to
Section 3.20, shall require the consent of each Class 3-PPP
Certificateholder.
157
Promptly
after the execution of any such amendment, the Trustee shall furnish written
notification of the substance of such amendment to the Delaware Trustee and
each
Certificateholder. Any failure to provide such notice, or any defect therein,
shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such
amendment.
It
shall
not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 10.01
to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be
sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner
of
obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution
thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations
as
the Trustee may prescribe.

action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have
offered to the institution acting as Trustee, both in its individual capacity
and as Trustee, such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs,

have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding.
However, the Trustee is under no obligation to exercise any of the extraordinary
trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to make any investigation
of
matters arising hereunder or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation
hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any of

Certificateholders unless such Certificateholders have offered to the Trustee
reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities
which may be incurred therein or thereby. It is understood and intended, and
expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other
Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates
shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue or by availing of any
provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the
Holders of any other of such Certificates, or to obtain or seek to obtain
priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right
under this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal,
ratable and common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and
enforcement of the provisions of this Section 10.03, each and every

three
or more Certificateholders (hereinafter referred to as “applicants”)
apply
in writing to the Trustee, and such application states that the applicants
desire to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights
under this Agreement or under the Certificates and is accompanied by a copy
of
the communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee
shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such list from the
Certificate Registrar, afford such applicants access during normal business

such
a list is as of a date more than 90 days prior to the date of receipt of such
applicants’ request, the Trustee shall promptly request from the Certificate
Registrar a current list as provided above, and shall afford such applicants
access to such list promptly upon receipt.

Appendix
1: Definition of Class C-Y Principal Reduction Amounts
For
any
Distribution Date, the amounts by which the Class Principal Balances of the
Class C-Y-1 and Class C-Y-2 Regular Interests respectively will be reduced
on
such Distribution Date by the allocation of Realized Losses and the distribution
of principal, determined as follows:
The
Principal Reduction Amount for each of the Class C-Y Regular Interests will
be
determined pursuant to the “Generic Solution for the Class C-Y Principal
Reduction Amounts” set forth below (the “Generic
Solution”)
by
making identifications among the actual Loan Groups and their related Class
C-Y
and Class C-Z Regular Interests and weighted average pass-through rates and
the
Groups named in the Generic Solution and their related Class C-Y and Class
C-Z
Regular Interests as follows:
A.
Loan
Group 1 will be identified with Group AA and the Class C-Y-1 Regular
Interest and Class C-Z-1 Regular Interest related to that Loan Group will be
respectively identified with the Class YAA and Class ZAA Certificates.
6.00% will be identified with J%.
B.
Loan
Group 2 will be identified with Group BB and the Class C-Y-2 Regular
Interest and Class C-Z-2 Regular Interest related to that Loan Group will be
respectively identified with the Class BB and Class ZBB Certificates.
6.50% will be identified with K%.

The
purpose of the foregoing definitional provisions together with the related
provisions allocating Realized Losses and defining the Class Y and Class Z
Principal Distribution Amounts is to accomplish the following goals in the
following order of priority:
2
1.
|
Making
the ratio of Yk
to
Yj
equal to g
after taking account of the allocation Realized Losses and the
distributions that will be made through end of the Distribution Date
to
which such provisions relate and assuring that the Principal Reduction
Amount for each of the Class YAA, Class YBB, Class ZAA and Class
ZBB
Certificates is greater than or equal to zero for such Distribution
Date;
|
2.
|
Making
(i) the Class YAA Principal Balance less than or equal to 0.0005
of the
sum of the Class YAA and Class ZAA Principal Balances and (ii) the
Class
YBB Principal Balance less than or equal to 0.0005 of the sum of
the Class
YBB and Class ZBB Principal Balances in each case after giving effect
to
allocations of Realized Losses and distributions to be made through
the
end of the Distribution Date to which such provisions relate; and
|
3.
|
Making
the larger of (a) the fraction whose numerator is Yk
and whose denominator is the sum of Yk
and Zk
and (b) the fraction whose numerator is Yj
and whose denominator is the sum of Yj,
and Zj
as
large as possible while remaining less than or equal to 0.0005.
|
In
the
event of a failure of the foregoing portion of the definition of Class Y
Principal Reduction Amount to accomplish both of goals 1 and 2 above, the
amounts thereof should be adjusted to so as to accomplish such goals within
the
requirement that each Class Y Principal Reduction Amount must be less than
or
equal to the sum of (a) the Principal Realized Losses to be allocated on the
related Distribution Date for the related Pool remaining after the allocation
of
such Realized Losses to the related Class P Certificates and (b) the remainder
of the Available Distribution Amount for the related Pool or after reduction
thereof by the distributions to be made on such Distribution Date (i) to the
related Class P Certificates, (ii) to the related Class X Certificates and
(iii)
in respect of interest on the related Class Y and Class Z Certificates, or,
if
both of such goals cannot be accomplished within such requirement, such
adjustment as is necessary shall be made to accomplish goal 1 within such
requirement. In the event of any conflict among the provisions of the definition
of the Class Y Principal Reduction Amounts, such conflict shall be resolved
on
the basis of the goals and their priorities set forth above within the
requirement set forth in the preceding sentence.
In
the
execution copy of this Agreement, symbols are represented by the following
labels; in any conformed copy of this Agreement, such symbols may be represented

WASHINGTON
MUTUAL MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH
CERTIFICATE
|
This
Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated
as
Washington Mutual Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates of the Series and
Class
specified hereon (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing certain
interests in REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III and REMIC IV.
The
Certificates do not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the
Company
or any of its affiliates and are not insured or guaranteed by any governmental
agency. The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections
and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically
set forth
herein and in the Pooling Agreement. In the event funds are advanced with
respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is reimbursable to the Servicer
from
the related recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from amounts received with
respect to other Mortgage Loans to the extent that such advance is not
otherwise
recoverable.
As
provided in the Pooling Agreement, withdrawals from the Certificate Account
may
be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to
Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement to the Servicer
of
advances made, or certain expenses incurred, by it.
The
Pooling Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of
the
Company and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Pooling Agreement
at
any time by the Company, the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent
of the
Holders of the Certificates evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating
not less
than 66% of REMIC IV. The Pooling Agreement also permits the amendment
thereof,
in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of
any of
the Certificates.
As
provided in the Pooling Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set
forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate
Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer
at the
office of the Certificate Registrar or the office maintained by the Trustee
in
the City and State of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an
assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in
form
satisfactory to the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent duly executed by,
the
Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and
thereupon one or more new Certificates of Authorized Denominations evidencing
the same Percentage Interest set forth hereinabove will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.
The
Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons
in
Authorized Denominations specified in the Pooling Agreement. As provided
in the
Pooling Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of Authorized Denominations
of like Certificate Principal Balance or Percentage Interest, as applicable,
as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
A
reasonable service charge may be made for any such registration of transfer
or
exchange, and the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The
Company, the Servicer, the Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and
any
agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate
is
registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Company,
the
Servicer, the Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee nor any agent thereof
shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
B-4
The
obligations created by the Pooling Agreement and the Trust created thereby
shall
terminate upon (i) the later of the final payment or other liquidation
(including purchase by the Servicer) of the last Mortgage Loan owned by
the
Trust or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed
in
lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the payment to
Certificateholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant
to the
Pooling Agreement. The Pooling Agreement permits, but does not require,
the
Servicer to purchase from the Trust all Mortgage Loans at the time subject
thereto and all property acquired by the Trust in respect of any Mortgage
Loan
upon payment to the Certificateholders of the amounts specified in the
Pooling
Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates, the Servicer’s right to purchase being subject to the aggregate
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less
than
the Clean-Up Call Percentage of the aggregate Principal Balance of the
Mortgage
Loans as of the Cut-Off Date.

This
Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated
as
Washington Mutual Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates of the Series and
Class
specified hereon (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing certain
interests in REMIC IV [to be used only in the case of the Group 3 Certificates
(other than the Class 3-IO, Class 3-C and Class 3-PPP):][, together with
certain
rights specified in the Pooling Agreement][to be used only in the case
of the
Class 3-C Certificates:][, together with certain obligations specified
in the
Pooling Agreement].
The
Certificates do not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the
Company
or any of its affiliates and are not insured or guaranteed by any governmental
agency. The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections
and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically
set forth
herein and in the Pooling Agreement. In the event funds are advanced with
respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is reimbursable to the Servicer
from
the related recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from amounts received with
respect to other Mortgage Loans to the extent that such advance is not
otherwise
recoverable.
As
provided in the Pooling Agreement, withdrawals from the Certificate Account
may
be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to
Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement to the Servicer
of
advances made, or certain expenses incurred, by it.
The
Pooling Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of
the
Company and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Pooling Agreement
at
any time by the Company, the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent
of the
Holders of the Certificates evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating
not less
than 66% of REMIC IV. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate
shall
be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of
this
Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in
exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent
is
made upon this Certificate. The Pooling Agreement also permits the amendment
thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders
of
any of the Certificates.
As
provided in the Pooling Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set
forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate
Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer
at the
office of the Certificate Registrar or the office maintained by the Trustee
in
the City and State of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an
assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in
form
satisfactory to the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent duly executed by,
the
Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and
thereupon one or more new Certificates of Authorized Denominations evidencing
the same Percentage Interest set forth hereinabove will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.
[to
be
used only in the case of the Junior Subordinate Certificates:] [No transfer
of a
Certificate will be made unless such transfer is exempt from or is made
in
accordance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act of
1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”) and any applicable state securities laws. In the
event that a transfer is to be made without registration or qualification
under
applicable laws, (i) in the event such transfer is made pursuant to Rule
144A
under the Securities Act, the Company and the Trustee shall require the
transferee to execute an investment letter in substantially the form attached
as
Exhibit L to the Pooling Agreement, which investment letter shall not be
an
expense of the Company, the Servicer, the Trust, the Delaware Trustee or
the
Trustee and (ii) in the event that such a transfer is not made pursuant
to Rule
144A under the Securities Act, the Trustee may require an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to the Trustee that such transfer may be made without such
registration or qualification, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an
expense
of the Company, the Servicer, the Trust, the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee.
Neither the Company nor the Trust will register the Certificate under the
Securities Act, qualify the Certificate under any state securities law
or
provide registration rights to any purchaser. Any Holder desiring to effect
such
transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trust, the Trustee,
the
Delaware Trustee, the Company and the Servicer against any liability that
may
result if the transfer is not made in accordance with the Pooling
Agreement.]
H-1-3
The
Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons
in
Authorized Denominations specified in the Pooling Agreement. As provided
in the
Pooling Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of Authorized Denominations
of like Certificate Principal Balance or Percentage Interest, as applicable,
as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
A
reasonable service charge may be made for any such registration of transfer
or
exchange, and the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The
Company, the Servicer, the Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and
any
agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate
is
registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Company,
the
Servicer, the Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee nor any agent thereof
shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
The
obligations created by the Pooling Agreement and the Trust created thereby
shall
terminate upon (i) the later of the final payment or other liquidation

ASSET ACCEPTANCE CORP.
WASHINGTON
MUTUAL MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE
This
Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated
as
Washington Mutual Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates of the Series and
Class
specified hereon (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing certain
interests in REMIC IV, together with certain rights specified in the Pooling
Agreement.
The
Certificates do not represent an obligation of, or an interest in, the
Company
or any of its affiliates and are not insured or guaranteed by any governmental
agency. The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections
and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically
set forth
herein and in the Pooling Agreement.
As
provided in the Pooling Agreement, withdrawals from the Certificate Account
may
be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to
Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement to the Servicer
of
advances made, or certain expenses incurred, by it.
The
Pooling Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of
the
Company and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Pooling Agreement
at
any time by the Company, the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent
of the
Holders of the Certificates evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating
not less
than 66% of REMIC IV; provided,
however,
that any
such amendment that modifies the rights of the Class PPP Certificateholders
to
receive Assigned Prepayment Premiums shall require the consent of each
Class PPP
Certificateholder. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall
be
conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this
Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in
exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent
is
made upon this Certificate. The Pooling Agreement also permits the amendment
thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders
of
any of the Certificates.
As
provided in the Pooling Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set
forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate
Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer
at the
office of the Certificate Registrar or the office maintained by the Trustee
in
the City and State of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an
assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in
form
satisfactory to the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent duly executed by,
the
Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and
thereupon one or more new Certificates of Authorized Denominations evidencing
the same Percentage Interest set forth hereinabove will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.
The
Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons
in
Authorized Denominations specified in the Pooling Agreement. As provided
in the
Pooling Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of Authorized Denominations
of like Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the
same.
A
reasonable service charge may be made for any such registration of transfer
or
exchange, and the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The
Company, the Servicer, the Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and
any
agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate
is
registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Company,
the
Servicer, the Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee nor any agent thereof
shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
H-1-3
The
obligations created by the Pooling Agreement and the Trust created thereby
shall
terminate upon (i) the later of the final payment or other liquidation
(including purchase by the Servicer) of the last Mortgage Loan owned by
the
Trust or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed
in
lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the payment to
Certificateholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant
to the
Pooling Agreement. The Pooling Agreement permits, but does not require,
the
Servicer to purchase from the Trust all Mortgage Loans at the time subject
thereto and all property acquired by the Trust in respect of any Mortgage
Loan
upon payment to the Certificateholders of the amounts specified in the
Pooling
Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates, the Servicer’s right to purchase being subject to the aggregate
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less
than
the Clean-Up Call Percentage of the aggregate Principal Balance of the
Mortgage
Loans as of the Cut-Off Date.

[NAME
OF
OFFICER], being first duly sworn, deposes and says:
1. That
he
is [Title of Officer] of [Name of Owner] (record or beneficial owner of
the
Class R Certificate (the “Owner”)), a [savings institution] [corporation] duly
organized and existing under the laws of [the State of ]
[the
United States], on behalf of which he makes this affidavit and
agreement.
2. That
the
Owner (i) is not and will not be a “disqualified organization” as of [date of
transfer] within the meaning of Section 860E(e)(5) of the Internal Revenue
Code
of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and will endeavor to remain other than a
disqualified organization for so long as it retains its ownership interest
in
the Class R Certificates, and (ii) is acquiring the Class R Certificates
for its
own account or for the account of another Owner from which it has received
an
affidavit and agreement in substantially the same form as this affidavit
and
agreement. (For this purpose, a disqualified organization” means the United
States, any state or political subdivision thereof, or any agency or
instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other than an instrumentality
all of
the activities of which are subject to tax and, except for the Federal
Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation, a majority of whose board of directors is not selected
by
any such governmental entity), or any foreign government or international
organization, or any agency or instrumentality of such foreign government
or
organization, any rural electric or telephone cooperative, or any organization
(other than certain farmers' cooperatives) that is generally exempt from
federal
income tax unless such organization is subject to the tax on unrelated
business
taxable income).
3. That
the
Owner is aware (i) of the tax that would be imposed on transfers of the
Class R
Certificates after March 31, 1988; (ii) that such tax would be on the
transferor, or, if such transfer is through an agent (which person includes
a
broker, nominee or middle-man) for a disqualified organization, on the
agent;
(iii) that the person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of
liability for the tax if the transferee furnishes to such person an affidavit
that the transferee is not a disqualified organization and, at the time
of
transfer, such person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit
is
false; and (iv) that the Class R Certificates may be a “noneconomic residual
interest” within the meaning of Treasury regulations promulgated pursuant to the
Code and that the transferor of a noneconomic residual interest will remain
liable for any taxes due with respect to the income on such residual interest,
if a significant purpose of the transfer was to enable the transferor to
impede
the assessment or collection of tax.
4. That
the
Owner is aware of the tax imposed on a “pass-through entity” holding the Class R
Certificates if at any time during the taxable year of the pass-through
entity a
disqualified organization is the record holder of an interest in such entity.
(For this purpose, a “pass through entity” includes a regulated investment
company, a real estate investment trust or common trust fund, a partnership,
trust or estate, and certain cooperatives.)
J-1
5. That
the
Owner is aware that the Trustee will not register the Transfer of the Class
R
Certificates unless the transferee, or the transferees' agent, delivers
to it an
affidavit and agreement, among other things, in substantially the same
form as
this affidavit and agreement. The Owner expressly agrees that it will not
consummate any such transfer if it knows or believes that any of the
representations contained in such affidavit and agreement are
false.
6. That
the
Owner has reviewed the restrictions set forth on the face of the Class
R
Certificates and the provisions of Section 5.01 of the Pooling Agreement
under
which the Class R Certificates were issued (in particular, clauses (iii)(A)
and
(iii)(B) of Section 5.01(c) which authorize the Trustee to deliver payments
to a
person other than the Owner and negotiate a mandatory sale by the Trustee
in the
event the Owner holds such Certificates in violation of Section 5.01).
The Owner
expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with such restrictions and
provisions.
7. That
the
Owner consents to any additional restrictions or arrangements that shall
be
deemed necessary upon advice of counsel to constitute a reasonable arrangement
to ensure that the Class R Certificates will only be owned, directly or
indirectly, by an Owner that is not a disqualified organization.
8. The
Owner's Taxpayer Identification Number is
.
9. That
no
purpose of the Owner relating to the purchase of the Class R Certificates
by the
Owner is or will be to enable the transferor to impede the assessment or
collection of tax, and that in making this representation, the Owner warrants
that the Owner is familiar with Treasury Regulation 1.860E-1(c) and with
the
preamble to the adoption of amendments to that regulation as of July 19,
2002,
attached hereto as Exhibit 1.
10. That
the
Owner anticipates that it will, so long as it holds the Class R Certificates,
have sufficient assets to pay any taxes owed by the holder of such Certificates,
and hereby represents to and for the benefit of the person from whom it
acquired
the Class R Certificates that the Owner intends to pay taxes associated
with
holding such Certificates as they become due, fully understanding that
it may
incur tax liabilities in excess of any cash flows generated by the Class
R
Certificates. That the Owner has provided financial statements or other
financial information requested by the transferor in connection with the
transfer of the Class R Certificates to permit the transferor to assess
the
financial capability of the Owner to pay such taxes.
11. That
the
Owner has no present knowledge or expectation that it will be unable to
pay any
United States taxes owed by it so long as any of the Class R Certificates
remain
outstanding.
12. That
the
Owner has no present knowledge or expectation that it will become insolvent
or
subject to a bankruptcy proceeding for so long as any of the Class R
Certificates remain outstanding.
13. That
the
Owner is familiar with Treasury Regulation 1.860E-1(c) and with the preamble
to
the adoption of amendments to that regulation as of July 19, 2002, attached
hereto as Exhibit 1, and that no purpose of the Owner relating to any sale
of
the Class R Certificates by the Owner will be to impede the assessment
or
collection of tax.
14. The
Owner
is a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation, partnership
or
other entity treated as a partnership or corporation for U.S. federal income
tax
purposes created or organized in, or under the laws of, the United States
or any
state thereof or the District of Columbia, or an estate or trust whose
income
from sources without the United States is includible in gross income for
United
States federal income tax purposes regardless of its connection with the
conduct
of a trade or business within the United States.
J-2
15. The
Owner
hereby agrees that it will not cause income from the Class R Certificates
to be
attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base (within
the
meaning of an applicable income tax treaty) of the Owner or another United
States taxpayer.
16. The
Owner
hereby agrees to cooperate with the Company and to take any action required
of
it by the Code or Treasury regulations thereunder (whether now or hereafter
promulgated) in order to create or maintain the REMIC status of REMIC I,
REMIC
II, REMIC III and REMIC IV (the “REMICs”).
17. The
Owner
hereby agrees that it will not take any action that could endanger the
REMIC
status of the REMICs or result in the imposition of tax on the REMICs unless
counsel for, or acceptable to, the Company has provided an opinion that
such
action will not result in the loss of such REMIC status or the imposition
of
such tax, as applicable.
18. The
Owner
as transferee of the Class R Certificates has represented to the transferor
that, if the Class R Certificates constitute a noneconomic residual interest,
the Owner (i) understands that as holder of a noneconomic residual interest
it
may incur tax liabilities in excess of any cash flows generated by the
interest,
and (ii) intends to pay taxes associated with its holding of the Class
R
Certificates as they become due.
19. That
the
Owner satisfies the condition in the paragraph marked below [xxxx one paragraph

Owner is not an employee benefit or other plan subject to the
prohibited
transaction provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of

SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION:
Paperwork
Reduction Act
The
collection of information in this final rule has been reviewed and, pending
receipt and evaluation of public comments, approved by the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) under 44 U.S.C. 3507 and assigned control number 1545-1675.
The
collection of information in this regulation is in Sec. 1.860E-1(c)(5)(ii).
This
information is required to enable the IRS to verify that a taxpayer is
complying
with the conditions of this regulation. The collection of information is
mandatory and is required. Otherwise, the taxpayer will not receive the
benefit
of safe harbor treatment as provided in the regulation. The likely respondents
are businesses and other for-profit institutions.
Comments
on the collection of information should be sent to the Office of Management
and
Budget, Attn: Desk Officer for the Department of the Treasury, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs, Xxxxxxxxxx, XX, 00000, with copies
to the
Internal Revenue Service, Attn: IRS Reports Clearance Officer, W:CAR:MP:FP:S,
Xxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000. Comments on the collection of information should
be
received by September 17, 2002. Comments are specifically requested concerning:
Whether
the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
the
functions of the Internal Revenue Service, including whether the information
will have practical utility;
J-1-1
The
accuracy of the estimated burden associated with the collection of information
(see below);
How
the
quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected may be
enhanced;
How
the
burden of complying with the collection of information may be minimized,
including through the application of automated collection techniques or
other
forms of information technology; and
Estimates
of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and purchase
of service to provide information.
An
agency
may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to,
a
collection of information unless it displays a valid control number assigned
by
the Office of Management and Budget.
The
estimated total annual reporting burden is 470 hours, based on an estimated
number of respondents of 470 and an estimated average annual burden hours
per
respondent of one hour.
Books
or
records relating to a collection of information must be retained as long
as
their contents may become material in the administration of any internal
revenue
law. Generally, tax returns and tax return information are confidential,
as
required by 26 U.S.C. 6103.
Background
This
document contains final regulations regarding the proposed amendments to
26 CFR
part 1 under section 860E of the Internal Revenue Code (Code). The regulations
provide the circumstances under which a transferor of a noneconomic REMIC
residual interest meeting the investigation and representation requirements
may
avail itself of the safe harbor by satisfying either the formula test or
the
asset test.
Final
regulations governing REMICs, issued in 1992, contain rules governing the
transfer of noneconomic REMIC residual interests. In general, a transfer
of a
noneconomic residual interest is disregarded for all tax purposes if a
significant purpose of the transfer is to enable the transferor to impede
the
assessment or collection of tax. A purpose to impede the assessment or
collection of tax (a wrongful purpose) exists if the transferor, at the
time of
the transfer, either knew or should have known that the transferee would
be
unwilling or unable to pay taxes due on its share of the REMIC's taxable
income.
Under
a
safe harbor, the transferor of a REMIC noneconomic residual interest is
presumed
not to have a wrongful purpose if two requirements are satisfied: (1) the
transferor conducts a reasonable investigation of the transferee's financial
condition (the investigation requirement); and (2) the transferor secures
a
representation from the transferee to the effect that the transferee understands
the tax obligations associated with holding a residual interest and intends
to
pay those taxes (the representation requirement).
The
IRS
and Treasury have been concerned that some transferors of noneconomic residual
interests claim they satisfy the safe harbor even in situations where the
economics of the transfer clearly indicate the transferee is unwilling
or unable
to pay the tax associated with holding the interest. For this reason, on
February 7, 2000, the IRS published in the Federal Register (65 FR 5807)
a
notice of proposed rulemaking (REG-100276-97; REG-122450-98) designed to
clarify
the safe harbor by adding the ``formula test,'' an economic test. The proposed
regulation provides that the safe harbor is unavailable unless the present
value
of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the residual
interest
does not exceed the sum of: (1) The present value of any consideration
given to
the transferee to acquire the interest; (2) the present value of the expected
future distributions on the interest; and (3) the present value of the
anticipated tax savings associated with holding the interest as the REMIC
generates losses.
J-1-2
The
notice of proposed rulemaking also contained rules for FASITs. Section
1.860H-6(g) of the proposed regulations provides requirements for transfers
of
FASIT ownership interests and adopts a safe harbor by reference to the
safe
harbor provisions of the REMIC regulations.
In
January 2001, the IRS published Rev. Proc. 2001-12 (2001-3 I.R.B. 335)
to set
forth an alternative safe harbor that taxpayers could use while the IRS
and the
Treasury considered comments on the proposed regulations. Under the alternative
safe harbor, if a transferor meets the investigation requirement and the
representation requirement but the transfer fails to meet the formula test,
the
transferor may invoke the safe harbor if the transferee meets a two-prong
test
(the asset test). A transferee generally meets the first prong of this
test if,
at the time of the transfer, and in each of the two years preceding the
year of
transfer, the transferee's gross assets exceed $100 million and its net
assets
exceed $10 million. A transferee generally meets the second prong of this
test
if it is a domestic, taxable corporation and agrees in writing not to transfer
the interest to any person other than another domestic, taxable corporation
that
also satisfies the requirements of the asset test. A transferor cannot
rely on
the asset test if the transferor knows, or has reason to know, that the
transferee will not comply with its written agreement to limit the restrictions
on subsequent transfers of the residual interest.
Rev.
Proc. 2001-12 provides that the asset test fails to be satisfied in the
case of
a transfer or assignment of a noneconomic residual interest to a foreign
branch
of an otherwise eligible transferee. If such a transfer or assignment were
permitted, a corporate taxpayer might seek to claim that the provisions
of an
applicable income tax treaty would resource excess inclusion income as
foreign
source income, and that, as a consequence, any U.S. tax liability attributable
to the excess inclusion income could be offset by foreign tax credits.
Such a
claim would impede the assessment or collection of U.S. tax on excess inclusion
income, contrary to the congressional purpose of assuring that such income
will
be taxable in all events. See, e.g., sections 860E(a)(1), (b), (e) and
860G(b)
of the Code.
The
Treasury and the IRS have learned that certain taxpayers transferring
noneconomic residual interests to foreign branches have attempted to rely
on the
formula test to obtain safe harbor treatment in an effort to impede the
assessment or collection of U.S. tax on excess inclusion income. Accordingly,
the final regulations provide that if a noneconomic residual interest is
transferred to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base of a U.S.
taxpayer, the transfer is not eligible for safe harbor treatment under
either
the asset test or the formula test. The final regulations also require
a
transferee to represent that it will not cause income from the noneconomic
residual interest to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment
or
fixed base.
Section
1.860E-1(c)(8) provides computational rules that a taxpayer may use to
qualify
for safe harbor status under the formula test. Section 1.860E-1(c)(8)(i)
provides that the transferee is presumed to pay tax at a rate equal to
the
highest rate of tax specified in section 11(b). Some commentators were
concerned
that this presumed rate of taxation was too high because it does not take
into
consideration taxpayers subject to the alternative minimum tax rate. In
light of
the comments received, this provision has been amended in the final regulations
to allow certain transferees that compute their taxable income using the
alternative minimum tax rate to use the alternative minimum tax rate applicable
to corporations.
Additionally,
Sec. 1.860E-1(c)(8)(iii) provides that the present values in the formula
test
are to be computed using a discount rate equal to the applicable Federal
short-term rate prescribed by section 1274(d). This is a change from the
proposed regulation and Rev. Proc. 2001-12. In those publications the provision
stated that “present values are computed using a discount rate equal to the
applicable Federal rate prescribed in section 1274(d) compounded semiannually”
and that “[a] lower discount rate may be used if the transferee can demonstrate
that it regularly borrows, in the course of its trade or business, substantial
funds at such lower rate from an unrelated third party.” The IRS and the
Treasury Department have learned that, based on this provision, certain
taxpayers have been attempting to use unrealistically low or zero interest
rates
to satisfy the formula test, frustrating the intent of the test. Furthermore,
the Treasury Department and the IRS believe that a rule allowing for a
rate
other than a rate based on an objective index would add unnecessary complexity
to the safe harbor. As a result, the rule in the proposed regulations that
permits a transferee to use a lower discount rate, if the transferee can
demonstrate that it regularly borrows substantial funds at such lower rate,
is
not included in the final regulations; and the Federal short-term rate
has been
substituted for the applicable Federal rate. To simplify taxpayers'
computations, the final regulations allow use of any of the published short-term
rates, provided that the present values are computed with a corresponding
period
of compounding. With the exception of the provisions relating to transfers
to
foreign branches, these changes generally have the proposed applicability
date
of February 4, 2000, but taxpayers may choose to apply the interest rate
formula
set forth in the proposed regulation and Rev. Proc. 2001-12 for transfers
occurring before August 19, 2002.
J-1-3
It
is
anticipated that when final regulations are adopted with respect to FASITs,
Sec.
1.860H-6(g) of the proposed regulations will be adopted in substantially
its
present form, with the result that the final regulations contained in this
document will also govern transfers of FASIT ownership interests with
substantially the same applicability date as is contained in this
document.
Effect
on Other Documents
Rev.
Proc. 2001-12 (2001-3 I.R.B. 335) is obsolete for transfers of noneconomic
residual interests in REMICs occurring on or after August 19, 2002.
Special
Analyses
It
is
hereby certified that these regulations will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small entities. This certification is
based on
the fact that it is unlikely that a substantial number of small entities
will
hold REMIC residual interests. Therefore, a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 6) is not required.
It
has been determined that this Treasury decision is not a significant regulatory
action as defined in Executive Order 12866. Therefore, a regulatory assessment
is not required. It also has been determined that sections 553(b) and 553(d)
of
the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 5) do not apply to these
regulations.
