With respect to each MERS Mortgage Loan, the Indenture Trustee, at the expense of the Depositor and at the direction and with the cooperation of the applicable Servicer, shall cause to be taken such actions as are necessary to cause the Indenture Trustee to be clearly identified as the owner of each such Mortgage Loan on the records of MERS for purposes of the system of recording transfers of beneficial ownership of mortgages maintained by MERS.

If any original Mortgage Note referred to in Section 2.01(b)(i)(A) cannot be located, the obligation of the Depositor to deliver such documents shall be deemed to be satisfied upon delivery to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian of an original affidavit certifying that the original Mortgage Note has been lost, misplaced or destroyed.

If the original lender’s title insurance policy was not delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(b)(vi) above, the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian, promptly after receipt thereof, the original lender’s title insurance policy. The Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian promptly upon receipt thereof any other original documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File received with respect to any Mortgage Loan, including, but not limited to, any original documents evidencing an assumption or modification of any Mortgage Loan.
All original documents relating to the Mortgage Loans that are not delivered to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian are and shall be held by or on behalf of the Seller, the Depositor, the Servicers or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, in trust for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Securityholders. In the event that any such original document is required pursuant to the terms of this Section to be a part of a Mortgage File, such document shall be delivered promptly to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian.

Section 2.02. Acceptance by Owner Trustee and Acknowledgement by Indenture Trustee.
Subject to the provisions of Section 2.01, the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer, acknowledges receipt of the assets transferred by the Depositor of the assets included in the Trust Assets and has directed that the documents referred to in Section 2.01 and all other assets included in the definition of “Trust Assets” be delivered to the Indenture Trustee (or the Custodian) on its behalf.
Subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 and subject to the review described below and any exceptions noted on the exception report described in the next paragraph below, the Indenture Trustee acknowledges receipt by it (or by the Custodian on its behalf) of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(b)(v)), the Underlying Securities, each Rate Protection Agreement and all other assets included in the definition of “Trust Assets,” and declares that it holds and will hold the Underlying Securities, such documents and the other documents delivered to it constituting a Mortgage File, and that it holds or will hold all such assets and such other assets included in the definition of “Trust Assets” from time to time in trust for the benefit of all present and future Securityholders.
At or prior to the Closing Date [(or, in the case of [Subsequent Mortgage Loans] [Additional Mortgage Loans], the Transfer Date)], the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian shall certify in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B that with respect to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not being covered by such certification) the related Mortgage File contains the documents specified in Exhibit B.
The Indenture Trustee agrees, for the benefit of the Securityholders, to review, or to cause the Custodian to review, each Mortgage File within [ ] days after the Closing Date [(or, in the case of [Subsequent Mortgage Loans] [Additional Mortgage Loans], the Transfer Date)] (or, with respect to any document delivered after the Closing Date [(or, in the case of [Subsequent Mortgage Loans] [Additional Mortgage Loans], the Transfer Date)], within [ ] days of receipt and with respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, within [ ] days after the assignment thereof) and to certify, or to cause the Custodian to certify, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not being covered by such certification), (i) all documents required to be delivered to it pursuant Section 2.01 of this Agreement are in its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it and have not been mutilated, damaged or torn and relate to such Mortgage Loan, and (iii) based on its examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to items (i) through (iii) of the definition of Mortgage Loan Schedule contained herein accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File. It is herein acknowledged that, in conducting such review, neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Custodian is under any duty or obligation (i) to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that they are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face, or (ii) to determine whether any Mortgage File should include any of the documents specified in clause (v) of Section 2.01. In addition, the Indenture Trustee makes no representation or warranty regarding collectibility, insurability, effectiveness or suitability of any Mortgage Loan.
Prior to the first anniversary date of this Agreement, the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian shall deliver to the Depositor and the Master Servicer a final certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit D evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon.
If in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making or preparing, as the case may be, the certifications referred to above, the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective in any material respect, at the conclusion of its review the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian shall so notify the Depositor. In addition, upon the discovery by the Indenture Trustee, the Custodian, the Depositor or the Master Servicer (or upon receipt by the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian of written notification of such breach) of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by the Seller in the Purchase Agreement in respect of any other Mortgage Loan or by the Depositor in this Agreement which materially adversely affects such Mortgage Loan or the interests of the related Securityholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties.
Section 2.03. Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans by the Seller or the Depositor.
(a)
Upon discovery or receipt of notice of any materially defective document in, or that a document is missing from, a Mortgage File or of the breach by the Seller of any representation, warranty or covenant under the Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially and adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the Securityholders, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly notify the Seller of such defect, missing document or breach and request that the Seller deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach within 90 days from the date the Seller was notified of such missing document, defect or breach, and if the Seller does not deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach in all material respects during such period, the Indenture Trustee shall enforce the Seller’s obligation under the Purchase Agreement (i) in connection with any such breach that could not reasonably have been cured within such 90 day period, if the Seller shall have commenced to cure such breach within such 90 day period, to proceed thereafter diligently and expeditiously to cure the same within the additional period provided under the Purchase Agreement, (ii) in connection with any such breach (subject to clause (i) above) or any missing or defective document required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(b)(i) or 2.01(b)(ii)(A), to purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Issuer at the Purchase Price within 120 days after the date on which the Seller was notified of such breach, and (iii) in connection with any other document required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof that is missing or defective, notwithstanding any delivery of an affidavit with respect to a missing Mortgage Note pursuant to Section 2.01, to purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust at the Purchase Price within 10 Business Days after receipt of notification from the Indenture Trustee that the absence of such document or defect with respect thereto has materially impaired the ability of the Indenture Trustee to enforce the related Mortgage Note or Mortgage, in each case if and to the extent that the Seller is obligated to do so under the Purchase Agreement. The Indenture Trustee shall also enforce the Seller’s indemnification obligations under the Purchase Agreement and the Revolving Purchase Agreement, if applicable. The Purchase Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan shall be deposited in the Collection Account and the Indenture Trustee, upon receipt of written certification from the Master Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Seller shall furnish to it and as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and the Indenture Trustee shall have no further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File. In lieu of purchasing any such Mortgage Loan as provided above, if so provided in the Purchase Agreement, the Seller may cause such Mortgage Loan to be removed from the Trust Assets (in which case it shall become a Deleted Mortgage Loan) and substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d). It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller to cure, repurchase (or to substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a document is missing, a material defect in a constituent document exists or as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing, or to indemnify the Issuer, shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such omission, defect or breach available to the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Securityholders.
The Seller shall have the right, and the obligation, to repurchase Mortgage Loans from the Issuer only to the limited extent provided in Section 7 of the Purchase Agreement and in this Section. Any repurchase of a Mortgage Loan by the Seller pursuant to Section 7 of the Purchase Agreement shall be effected in accordance with the provisions of this Section.
(b)
Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Depositor or receipt of notice by the Depositor of the breach of any representation or warranty of the Depositor set forth in Section 3.02 with respect to any Mortgage Loan, which materially and adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the Securityholders, the Depositor shall (i) cure such breach in all material respects, (ii) repurchase the Mortgage Loan from the Issuer at the Purchase Price or (iii) remove such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Assets (in which case it shall become a Deleted Mortgage Loan) and substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d). The Purchase Price for any repurchased Mortgage Loan shall be delivered to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account, and the Indenture Trustee, upon receipt of written certification from the Master Servicer of such deposit, shall at the Depositor’s direction release to the Depositor the related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment furnished by the Depositor, in each case without recourse, as the Depositor shall furnish to it and as shall be necessary to vest in the Depositor any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.
(c)
Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Master Servicer or receipt of notice by the Master Servicer of the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Master Servicer set forth in Section 3.01 which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Securityholders in any Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall cure such breach in all material respects.
(d)
Any substitution of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for Deleted Mortgage Loans made pursuant to Section 2.03(a), in the case of the Seller, or Section 2.03(b), in the case of the Depositor, must be effected prior to the date which is two years after the Closing Date.
As to any Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Seller or the Depositor substitutes a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be effected by the Seller or the Depositor, as the case may be, by delivering to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian in exchange for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment to the Indenture Trustee, and such other documents and agreements, with all necessary endorsements thereon, as are required by Section 2.01, together with an Officer’s Certificate providing that each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies the definition thereof and specifying the Substitution Amount, if any, in connection with such substitution. The Indenture Trustee or the Custodian shall acknowledge receipt of such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and, within 45 Business Days thereafter, review such documents as specified in Section 2.02 and deliver to the Depositor and the Master Servicer, with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, a certification substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. Within one year of the date of substitution, the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian shall deliver to the Depositor and the Master Servicer a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the Due Period of substitution will not be owned by the Issuer and will be retained by the Depositor or the Seller, as the case may be. For the Due Period of substitution, distributions to Securityholders will reflect the collections and recoveries in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan in such Due Period and the Depositor or the Seller, as the case may be, shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Depositor shall give or cause to be given written notice to the Securityholders that such substitution has taken place, shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement and the substitution of the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and shall deliver a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian and to the Master Servicer. Upon such substitution, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall constitute a Mortgage Loan hereunder and shall be subject in all respects to the terms of this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement if the Qualified Substitution Mortgage Loan will replace any other Mortgage Loan, including all applicable representations and warranties thereof included in the Purchase Agreement as of the date of substitution. In the case of any substitution effected by the Depositor, the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall have been acquired by the Depositor from the Seller pursuant to the Purchase Agreement and Depositor shall assign to the Issuer the representations and warranties made by the Seller with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan.
For any month in which the Depositor or the Seller substitutes one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Depositor or the Seller, as applicable, will determine the amount (the “Substitution Amount”), if any, by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans exceeds the aggregate, as to each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, of the principal balance thereof as of the date of substitution, together with one month’s interest on such principal balance at the applicable Mortgage Rate. On the date of such substitution, the Depositor or the Seller, as the case may be, will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account an amount equal to the Substitution Amount, if any, and the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian, upon receipt of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and certification by the Master Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Depositor or the Seller, as the case may be, the related Mortgage File or Files and the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Depositor or the Seller, as the case may be, shall deliver to it and as shall be necessary to vest therein any Deleted Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.
Section 2.04. Grant of Security Interest; Intended Characterization.
(a)
It is intended that the conveyance by the Depositor to the Issuer of the Loan Assets, as provided for in Section 2.01 be construed as a sale by the Depositor to the Issuer of the Loan Assets and other assets in the Trust Assets for the benefit of the Securityholders. Further, it is not intended that any such conveyance be deemed to be a pledge of the Loan Assets by the Depositor to the Issuer to secure a debt or other obligation of the Depositor. However, in the event that the Loan Assets are held to be property of the Depositor or if for any reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in the Loan Assets and other assets in the Trust Assets, then it is intended that (a) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the New York UCC (or the Relevant UCC if not the New York UCC); (b) the conveyances provided for in Section 2.01 shall be deemed to be (1) a grant by the Depositor to the Issuer of a security interest in all of the Depositor’s right (including the power to convey title thereto), title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to (A) the Mortgage Loans, including with respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Notes, the Mortgages, any related insurance policies and all other documents in the related Mortgage Files, (B) all amounts payable pursuant to the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms thereof, (C) any Eligible Investments held in any Trust Account, (D) any Government Securities, (E) all Underlying Securities, including, without limitation, the right to all distributions of principal and interest received on or with respect to such Underlying Securities, (F) the Rate Protection Agreements, (G) all Holdback Amounts and (I) any and all general intangibles consisting of, arising from or relating to any of the foregoing, and all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other property, including without limitation all amounts from time to time held or invested in the Trust Accounts or the Certificate Deposit Account, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property and (2) an assignment by the Depositor to the Issuer of any security interest in any and all of the Depositor’s right (including the power to convey title thereto), title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to the property described in the foregoing clauses (1)(A), (B), (C), (D), (E), (F), (G), (H) and (I); (c) the possession by the Indenture Trustee or any other agent of the Issuer of Mortgage Notes, the Underlying Securities or such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be “possession by the secured party,” or possession by a purchaser or a person designated by such secured party, for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the New York UCC and any other Relevant UCC (including, without limitation, Section 9-313, 8-313 or 8-321 thereof); and (d) notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Issuer for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law.
(b)
The Depositor and, at the Depositor’s direction, the Issuer shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such reasonable actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the Loan Assets and the other property described above, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Depositor shall prepare and deliver to the Issuer, and the Issuer shall forward for filing, or shall cause to be forwarded for filing, at the expense of the Depositor, all filings necessary to maintain the effectiveness of any original filings necessary under the Relevant UCC to perfect the Issuer’s security interest in or lien on the Mortgage Loans as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Depositor, including without limitation (x) continuation statements, and (y) such other statements as may be occasioned by (1) any change of name of the Seller, the Depositor or the Issuer (such preparation and filing shall be at the expense of the Owner Trustee, if occasioned by a change in the Owner Trustee’s name), (2) any change of location of the place of business or the chief executive office of the Seller or the Depositor or (3) any transfer of any interest of the Seller or the Depositor in any Mortgage Loan.
Neither the Depositor nor the Issuer shall organize under the law of any jurisdiction other than the State under which each is organized as of the Closing Date (whether changing its jurisdiction of organization or organizing under an additional jurisdiction) without giving 30 days prior written notice of such action to its immediate and mediate transferee, including the Indenture Trustee. Before effecting such change, each of the Depositor or the Issuer proposing to change its jurisdiction of organization shall prepare and file in the appropriate filing office any financing statements or other statements necessary to continue the perfection of the interests of its immediate and mediate transferees, including the Indenture Trustee, in the Mortgage Loans. In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents, each of the Depositor and the Issuer authorizes its immediate or mediate transferee, including the Indenture Trustee, to file in any filing office any initial financing statements, any amendments to financing statements, any continuation statements, or any other statements or filings described in this Section 2.04(b).
(c)
The Depositor shall not take any action inconsistent with the sale by the Depositor of all of its right, title and interest in and to the Trust Assets and shall indicate or shall cause to be indicated in its records and records held on its behalf that ownership of each Mortgage Loan, the Underlying Securities and the other property of the Issuer is held by the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer. In addition, the Depositor shall respond to any inquiries from third parties with respect to ownership of a Mortgage Loan, the Underlying Securities or any other property of the Trust Assets by stating that it is not the owner of such Mortgage Loan or Underlying Securities and that ownership of such Mortgage Loan, Underlying Securities or other property of the Trust Assets is held by the Issuer on behalf of the Securityholders.
Section 2.05. Transmission of Mortgage Files.
Written instructions as to the method of shipment and shipper(s) the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian is directed to utilize in connection with transmission of files and loan documents in the performance of the Indenture Trustee’s or Custodian’s duties hereunder shall be delivered by the applicable Servicer (or if the related Mortgage Loan is being serviced directly by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer) to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian prior to any shipment of any Mortgage Files and loan documents hereunder. In the event that the Servicer (or if the related Mortgage Loan is being serviced directly by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer) fails to provide such written instructions, the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian shall be hereby authorized to use a nationally recognized courier servicer. The Servicer (or if the related Mortgage Loan is being serviced directly by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer) will arrange for the provision of such services at its sole cost and expense (or, at the Indenture Trustee’s option, reimburse the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian for all costs and expenses incurred by the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian consistent with such instructions or for having used an overnight courier service) and will maintain such insurance in connection with shipment of the Mortgage Files against loss or damage to files and loan documents as the Servicer (or if the related Mortgage Loan is being serviced directly by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer) deems appropriate. Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 8.04(a) hereof, it is expressly agreed that in no event shall the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian have any liability for any losses or damages to any Person with respect to the Mortgage Files arising out of actions of the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian consistent with instructions of the Servicer (or if the related Mortgage Loan is being serviced directly by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer).

ARTICLE IV

Section 4.01. Duties of the Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall supervise, monitor and oversee the obligation of the Servicers to service and administer their respective Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of the applicable Servicing Agreements, except the activities of the Servicers with respect to Mortgage Loans that are in default, including collection activity, modification of Mortgage Loans, foreclosure, and disposition of REO Property, and the processing of any FHA or VA claims (“Excluded Servicing Obligations”), and shall have full power and authority to do any and all things which it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such master servicing and administration. In performing its obligations hereunder, the Master Servicer shall act in a manner consistent with Accepted Master Servicing Practices. Furthermore, the Master Servicer shall oversee and consult with each Servicer as necessary from time-to-time to carry out the Master Servicer’s obligations hereunder, shall, from time to time, receive, review and evaluate all reports, information and other data provided to the Master Servicer by each Servicer and shall otherwise exercise its reasonable best efforts to cause each Servicer to perform and observe the covenants, obligations and conditions to be performed or observed by such Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall independently and separately monitor each Servicer’s servicing activities with respect to each related Mortgage Loan, reconcile the results of such monitoring with such information provided in the previous sentence on a monthly basis and coordinate corrective adjustments to the Servicers’ and Master Servicer’s records, and based on such reconciled and corrected information, prepare the report specified in Section 4.27 and any other information, statements and reports required hereunder. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Servicing Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall have no duty or obligation to supervise, monitor or oversee the activities of any Servicer or to enforce the obligations of any Servicer under its Servicing Agreement with respect to (i) calculation of payments due under any Simple Interest Mortgage Loans or any Bi-Weekly Mortgage Loans, or (ii) the collection of amounts with respect to the Mortgage Loans described on the Mortgage Loan Schedule attached as Schedule I-B hereto representing principal and/or interest due and owing on any such Mortgage Loan prior to the Cut-off Date. The Master Servicer shall reconcile the results of its Mortgage Loan monitoring with the actual remittances of the Servicers to the Collection Account pursuant to the applicable Servicing Agreements.
To the extent applicable to the obligations of the Master Servicer under this agreement, the Master Servicer shall at all times comply with the Housing Act, FHA Regulations, the Readjustment Act, VA Regulations, and any administrative guidelines issued thereunder.
Section 4.02. Monitoring of Servicers’ Performance.
Subject to Section 4.01, the Master Servicer shall be responsible for reporting to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Depositor the compliance by each Servicer with its duties under the related Servicing Agreement. In the review of each Servicer’s activities, the Master Servicer may rely upon an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer with regard to such Servicer’s compliance with the terms of its Servicing Agreement. In the event that the Master Servicer, in its reasonable judgment, determines that it requires reports from any Servicer in addition to the reports such Servicer is required to deliver to the Master Servicer pursuant to the applicable Servicing Agreement and the Master Servicer is obligated to reimburse the Servicer for the cost of such additional reports, the Master Servicer shall be reimbursed for such amounts from the Collection Account. In the event that the Master Servicer, in its judgment, determines that a Servicer should be terminated in accordance with its Servicing Agreement, or that a notice should be sent pursuant to such Servicing Agreement with respect to the occurrence of an event that, unless cured, would constitute grounds for such termination, the Master Servicer shall notify the Depositor, the Custodian, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee thereof and, absent instructions to the contrary from the Indenture Trustee within five days of the delivery of such notice, the Master Servicer shall issue such notice or take such other action as it deems appropriate.
Subject to the provisions of Section 4.01 hereof, the Master Servicer shall require each Servicer to comply with the remittance requirements and other obligations set forth in the related Servicing Agreement.
Section 4.03. Master Servicer Fidelity Bond and Master Servicer Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy.
The Master Servicer, at its expense, shall maintain in effect a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, affording coverage with respect to all directors, officers, employees and other Persons acting on such Master Servicer’s behalf, and covering errors and omissions in the performance of the Master Servicer’s obligations hereunder. The errors and omissions insurance policy and the fidelity bond shall be in such form and amount generally acceptable for entities serving as master servicers or trustees.

Such financial statements shall include a balance sheet, income statement and statement of retained earnings.
Section 4.05. Power to Act; Procedures.
(a)
The Master Servicer shall master service the Mortgage Loans as provided in this Agreement and shall have full power and authority to do any and all things that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the master servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans, including but not limited to the power and authority (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Securityholders and the Indenture Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages, (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan, in each case, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable. The Indenture Trustee shall furnish the Master Servicer, upon request, with any powers of attorney empowering the Master Servicer or any Servicer to execute and deliver instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and to foreclose upon or otherwise liquidate Mortgaged Property, and to appeal, prosecute or defend in any court action relating to the Mortgage Loans or the Mortgaged Property, in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, and the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver such other documents, as the Master Servicer may request, necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to master service and administer the Mortgage Loans and carry out its duties hereunder, in each case in accordance with Accepted Master Servicing Practices (and the Indenture Trustee shall have no liability for misuse of any such powers of attorney or other such documents by the Master Servicer or any Servicer). If the Master Servicer or the Indenture Trustee has been advised that it is likely that the laws of the state in which action is to be taken prohibit such action if taken in the name of the Indenture Trustee or that the Indenture Trustee would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state if such action is taken in its name, then upon request of the Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer shall join with the Indenture Trustee in the appointment of a co-trustee pursuant to Section 6.10 of the Indenture. In the performance of its duties hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be an independent contractor and shall not, except in those instances where it is taking action in the name of the Indenture Trustee, be deemed to be the agent of the Indenture Trustee.
(b)
In master servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer shall employ procedures consistent with Accepted Master Servicing Practices.
Section 4.06. Servicing Agreements; Enforcement of Servicers’ Obligations.
The Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee and the Securityholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Servicer under the related Servicing Agreement, and shall, in the event that a Servicer fails to perform its obligations in accordance with the related Servicing Agreement, in each case subject to Section 4.02, terminate the rights and obligations of such Servicer thereunder and either service the related Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms and provisions of the related Servicing Agreement or enter into a Servicing Agreement with a successor Servicer. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Servicing Agreements and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Master Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement from its own funds, provided that the Master Servicer shall not be required to prosecute or defend any legal action except to the extent that the Master Servicer shall have received reasonable indemnity for its costs and expenses in pursuing such action or such amounts are permitted to be withdrawn from the Collection Account.
With respect to Excluded Servicing Obligations, the obligation of the Master Servicer to terminate the rights and obligations of the applicable Servicer is conditioned upon the Master Servicer having notice or actual knowledge of such Servicer’s failure to comply with the requirements of such sections.
The parties acknowledge that there will be a transition period, not to exceed 90 days, in order to effect the transfer of servicing to a successor Servicer. To the extent that the costs and expenses of the Master Servicer related to any termination of a Servicer, appointment of a successor Servicer or the transfer and assumption of servicing by the Master Servicer are not fully and timely reimbursed by the Seller or the terminated Servicer, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of such costs and expenses from the Collection Account.
In the event that the Seller receives any amounts from a Servicer relating to a Mortgage Loan and such amounts constitute part of the Trust Assets, the Seller shall immediately notify the Master Servicer and transfer such amounts to the Collection Account by wire transfer of immediately available funds.
Section 4.07. Collection Account.
(a)
On the Closing Date, the Master Servicer shall open and shall thereafter maintain an account held in trust (the “Collection Account”), entitled “[ ], as trustee, in trust for the benefit of the Holders of Bayview Financial [ ] Trust Asset Backed Securities, Series [ ].” The Collection Account shall relate solely to the Securities issued by the Trust hereunder, and funds in such Collection Account shall not be commingled with any other monies.
(b)
The Collection Account shall be an Eligible Account. If an existing Collection Account ceases to be an Eligible Account, the Master Servicer shall establish a new Collection Account that is an Eligible Account within 30 days and transfer all funds on deposit in such existing Collection Account into such new Collection Account.
(c)
The Master Servicer will give to the Indenture Trustee prior written notice of the name and address of the depository institution at which the Collection Account is maintained and the account number of such Collection Account. The Master Servicer shall take such actions as are necessary to cause the depository institution holding the Collection Account to hold such account in the name of the Indenture Trustee (subject to such Master Servicer’s right to direct payments and investments and its rights of withdrawal) under this Agreement. The Master Servicer, at its option, may choose to make daily remittances from the Collection Account to the Indenture Trustee for deposit into the Note Distribution Account.
(d)
The Master Servicer shall deposit into the Collection Account, no later than the Business Day following the Closing Date, any amounts representing Monthly Payments on the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date and received by the Master Servicer on or before the Closing Date. Thereafter, promptly upon receipt, the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the Collection Account all amounts remitted to it by the Servicers in respect of the Mortgage Loans (which deposits may be net of the Master Servicing Fees). Funds in the Collection Account may be invested in Eligible Investments (selected by and at the direction of the Master Servicer) which shall mature not later than the Master Servicer Remittance Date (except that if such Eligible Investment is an obligation of the Indenture Trustee and such Collection Account is maintained with the Indenture Trustee, then such Eligible Investment shall mature not later than such applicable Payment Date) and any such Eligible Investment shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. In the absence of direction by the Master Servicer, all funds in the Collection Account shall remain uninvested. All such Eligible Investments shall be made in the name of the Indenture Trustee (in its capacity as such) or its nominee. All income and gain realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal or order from time to time and shall not be part of the Trust Assets. The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments shall be deposited in the Collection Account by the Master Servicer out of its own funds, without any right of reimbursement therefor, immediately as realized. The Indenture Trustee has no duty with respect to and shall not be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in the Collection Account resulting from any investment loss on any investment included therein (except to the extent that the Indenture Trustee is the obligor and has defaulted thereon). The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Account are exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments of interest on funds in the Collection Account and payments in the nature of late payment charges, assumption fees and other incidental fees and charges relating to the Mortgage Loans need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Collection Account and may be retained by the Master Servicer or, to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, the applicable Servicer as additional servicing compensation. If the Master Servicer deposits in the Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account.

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights and obligations of any Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Servicing Agreement and this Agreement. In such event, within 90 days of such termination, the Master Servicer shall appoint a successor Servicer or shall itself (or through an Affiliate) act as servicer of the related Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that for so long as the Seller is the Servicing Rights Owner under any such Servicing Agreement, the Seller shall have the right to appoint a successor Servicer within thirty (30) days of the Master Servicer providing notice to the Indenture Trustee of its intent to terminate such Servicer, subject to the provisions of Section 4.34 hereof.

(b)
If the Master Servicer acts as Servicer, it will not assume liability for the representations and warranties of the Servicer, if any, that it replaces. The Master Servicer shall, however, be deemed to have made the representations contained in Section 3.01 hereof as of the assumption by the Master Servicer of the duties of the applicable Servicer. The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to have the successor Servicer assume liability for the representations and warranties made by the terminated Servicer in respect of the related Mortgage Loans.

If the Master Servicer is unable to appoint such a successor Servicer, the Master Servicer shall modify the provisions of such Full Recourse Servicing Agreement as it deems appropriate, in its reasonable best judgment and with the consent of the Depositor, and shall either appoint a successor Servicer or service such Mortgage Loans itself (or through an Affiliate) as provided herein.

(b)
In the event the Master Servicer is terminated, the Master Servicer shall, (i) upon request of the Indenture Trustee but at the expense of such Master Servicer, timely deliver to the assuming party all documents and records (including, without limitation, computer tapes, disks and other electronic or magnetic media, in each case in readable format) in its possession relating to each Servicing Agreement and the related Mortgage Loans and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient assumption of its duties as Master Servicer to the assuming party and (ii) make such reimbursements as are required under Section 4.08(x) hereof.

(a)
To the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall cause the Servicers to enforce due-on-sale clauses with respect to the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement, to the extent such clauses are enforceable. If applicable law prohibits the enforcement of a due-on-sale clause or such clause is otherwise not enforced in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement, and, as a consequence, a Mortgage Loan is assumed, the original Mortgagor may be released from liability in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement.
(b)
If any Mortgage Loan contains a provision in the nature of a “due-on-encumbrance” clause, which by its terms: (i) provides that such Mortgage Loan shall (or may at the mortgagee’s option) become due and payable upon the creation of any lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property or (ii) requires the consent of the related mortgagee to the creation of any such lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property, the Master Servicer shall (to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement) cause the related Servicer, on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, to exercise (or decline to exercise) any right it may have as the mortgagee of record with respect to such Mortgage Loan to (x) accelerate the payments thereon, or (y) withhold its consent to the creation of any such lien or other encumbrance, in accordance with the applicable Servicing Standard.
(c)
The Master Servicer or the related Servicer, as the case may be, 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, and certified to the Indenture Trustee, 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 collectibility of, such Mortgage Loan would not be adversely affected thereby. Any fee collected by the Master Servicer or the related Servicer for processing such a request will be retained by the Master Servicer or such Servicer as additional servicing compensation.
Section 4.15. Release of Mortgage Files.
(a)
Upon becoming aware of the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by any Servicer of a notification that payment in full has been escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes for payment to Securityholders on the next Payment Date, the Servicer will, if required under the applicable Servicing Agreement, promptly notify the Indenture Trustee and the Custodian by a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto (which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection with such payment that are required to be deposited in the Collection Account maintained by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.07 have been or will be so deposited) of a Servicing Officer and shall request the Indenture Trustee to deliver to the applicable Servicer the related Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly release (or shall cause the Custodian to promptly release) the related Mortgage File to the applicable Servicer and the Indenture Trustee and the Custodian shall have no further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File. Upon any such payment in full, each Servicer is authorized to give, as agent for the Indenture Trustee, as the mortgagee under the Mortgage that secured the Mortgage Loan, an instrument of satisfaction (or assignment of mortgage without recourse) regarding the Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage, which instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall be delivered to the Person or Persons entitled thereto against receipt therefor of such payment, it being understood and agreed that (unless otherwise expressly provided in the related Servicing Agreement) no expenses incurred in connection with such instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall be chargeable to the Collection Account or any Custodial Account.
(b)
From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and in accordance with the Servicing Standard and the applicable Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall execute such documents as shall be prepared and furnished to the Indenture Trustee by a Servicer or the Master Servicer (in form reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee) and as are necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings. The Indenture Trustee shall, upon the request of a Servicer or the Master Servicer, and delivery to the Indenture Trustee of a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer substantially in the form of Exhibit E, release the related Mortgage File held in its possession or control to the Servicer or the Master Servicer. Such Request for Release shall obligate the Servicer or the Master Servicer to return the Mortgage File to the Indenture Trustee or Custodian, as applicable, when the need therefor by the Servicer or the Master 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 hereinabove specified, the Request for Release shall be delivered by the Indenture Trustee to the Servicer or the Master Servicer.
Section 4.16. Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of Master Servicer To Be Held for Indenture Trustee.

The Master Servicer shall transmit and each Servicer (to the extent required by the related Servicing Agreement) shall transmit to the Indenture Trustee such documents and instruments coming into the possession of the Master Servicer or such Servicer from time to time as are required by the terms hereof, or in the case of the Servicers, the applicable Servicing Agreement, to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee. Any funds received by the Master Servicer or by a Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loan or which otherwise are collected by the Master Servicer or by a Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage Loan shall be held for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee and the Securityholders subject to the Master Servicer’s right to retain or withdraw from the Collection Account the Master Servicing Fee and other amounts provided in this Agreement, and to the right of each Servicer to retain its Servicing Fee and other amounts as provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement.

Such access shall be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable request in writing and during normal business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer designated by it. In fulfilling such a request the Master Servicer shall not be responsible for determining the sufficiency of such information.
(b)
All Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the Master Servicer, in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether from the collection of principal and interest payments or from Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds, shall be held by the Master Servicer for and on behalf of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Securityholders and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Issuer, subject to the lien of the Indenture in favor of the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that the Master Servicer and each Servicer shall be entitled to deduct from any such funds any amounts that are permitted to be withdrawn by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.08 hereof or by such Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement.
(c)
The Master Servicer hereby acknowledges that concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall have a security interest in the Mortgage Loans and in all Mortgage Files representing such Mortgage Loans and in all funds now or hereafter held by, or under the control of, the Master Servicer that are collected by the Master Servicer in connection with the Mortgage Loans, whether as scheduled installments of principal and interest or as full or partial prepayments of principal or interest or as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds or otherwise, and in all proceeds of the foregoing and proceeds of proceeds (but excluding any fee or other amounts to which a Servicer is entitled under its Servicing Agreement, or the Master Servicer or the Depositor is entitled to hereunder); and the Master Servicer agrees that so long as the Mortgage Loans are assigned to and held by the Indenture Trustee, all documents or instruments constituting part of the Mortgage Files, and such funds relating to the Mortgage Loans which come into the possession or custody of, or which are subject to the control of, the Master Servicer shall be held by the Master Servicer for and on behalf of the Indenture Trustee as the Indenture Trustee’s agent and bailee for purposes of perfecting the Indenture Trustee’s security interest therein as provided by relevant Uniform Commercial Code or other laws.
(d)
The Master Servicer agrees that it shall not create, incur or subject any Mortgage Loans, or any funds that are deposited in any Custodial Account or the Collection Account, or any funds that otherwise are or may become due or payable to the Indenture Trustee, to any claim, lien, security interest, judgment, levy, writ of attachment or other encumbrance, nor assert by legal action or otherwise any claim or right of setoff against any Mortgage Loan or any funds collected on, or in connection with, a Mortgage Loan, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.
Section 4.17. Removal of Master Servicer; Resignation of Master Servicer; Term of Servicing.
(a)
If any of the following events (each, an “Event of Master Servicer Default”) shall occur and be continuing:
(i)
Any failure by the Master Servicer (x) to deposit to the Collection Account all collections received by the Master Servicer directly within two Business Days following the Business Day on which such amounts are deposited by the Master Servicer to its general account (which shall be within one Business Day following receipt of such amount) and are determined by the Master Servicer to relate to the Mortgage Loans or (y) to remit to the Indenture Trustee for deposit in the Note Distribution Account any amount required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 6.04(c) hereof by the related Master Servicer Remittance Date; or
(ii)
Failure on the part of the Master Servicer to observe or perform any term, covenant or agreement in this Agreement (other than those covered by clause (i) above) or a failure to comply with the provisions of Accepted Master Servicing Practices, which failure materially and adversely affects the rights of the Holders of the Securities and which continues unremedied for [ ] days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee or the Securityholders who, in the aggregate, hold Securities evidencing Voting Rights of [ ]% or more; or
(iii)
Any proceeding shall be instituted against the Master Servicer seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, winding up, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief, or composition of it or any of its Debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for any substantial part of its property, or any of the actions sought in such proceeding (including, without limitation, the entry of an order for relief against, or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for, it or for any substantial part of its property) shall occur; or
(iv)
The commencement by the Master Servicer of a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or of any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Master Servicer in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable Federal or state law, or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Master Servicer or of any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its Debts generally as they become due, or the taking of corporate action by the Master Servicer in furtherance of any such action; or
(v)
The Master Servicer shall fail to deliver a report expressly required by this Agreement, and the continuance of such failure for a period of three Business Days after the date upon which written notice of such failure shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Depositor or the Indenture Trustee (except that such three Business Day period shall be deemed not to run as to any portion of such report during such time as the Master Servicer’s failure to provide such information is for cause or inability beyond its control and the Master Servicer provides the Indenture Trustee and the Depositor with an Officer’s Certificate of the Master Servicer to such effect);
then the Indenture Trustee at the direction of the Required Securityholders shall, in each case by delivery to the Master Servicer of a written notice specifying the occurrence of any of the foregoing events terminate the responsibilities of the Master Servicer hereunder, without demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Master Servicer; provided, that, in the event any of the events described in subsections (i)(y), (iii) or (iv) shall have occurred, termination of the duties and responsibilities of the Master Servicer shall automatically occur, without, demand, protest, or further notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by the Master Servicer; provided that in the case of a proceeding described in subsection (iii) brought by a third party and not consented to by the Master Servicer, an Event of Master Servicer Default shall not be deemed to have occurred until the earliest to occur of (A) the failure of the relevant court to grant the Master Servicer’s motion to dismiss such proceeding within [ ] days of the filing of such motion, (B) the denial of the Master Servicer’s motion to dismiss such proceeding by the relevant court, (C) the failure of the Master Servicer to file such a motion within [ ] days of the notice of the proceeding and (D) the subsequent withdrawal by the Master Servicer of its motion to dismiss such proceeding.
If an Event of Master Servicer Default occurs and is continuing and if the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge or has received notice thereof, the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice of thereof to the Custodian, the Issuer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Rating Agencies and each Securityholder.
(b)
The Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it, except with the consent of the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee or upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law or are in material conflict by reason of applicable law with any other activities carried on by it, the other activities of the Master Servicer so causing such a conflict being of a type and nature carried on by the Master Servicer at the date of this Agreement. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such duties are not so permissible (the cost of which shall be borne by the Master Servicer) to such effect which shall be delivered to the Indenture Trustee, the Depositor, the Rating Agencies and the Securityholders.
(c)
Except as may be required by law, no resignation of the Master Servicer shall become effective until a Successor Master Servicer shall have assumed all of the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations hereunder.
(d)
If the Master Servicer is removed or resigns and the Indenture Trustee does not appoint a Successor Master Servicer in accordance with Section 4.13 hereof, then the Indenture Trustee shall become the Successor Master Servicer. The Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement from the predecessor Master Servicer for the costs and expenses of the Indenture Trustee related to a termination of the Master Servicer, the appointment of a successor Master Servicer or the transfer and assumption of servicing by the Indenture Trustee, as Successor Master Servicer, each due to an Event of Master Servicer Default. To the extent that such costs and expenses of the Indenture Trustee are not fully and timely reimbursed by the predecessor Master Servicer, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement of such costs and expenses from the Collection Account in accordance with Section 4.08(x).
(e)
Any collections received by the Master Servicer after removal or resignation shall be endorsed by it and remitted directly and immediately to the Successor Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Master Servicing Fee through the day on which it is terminated as Master Servicer (which may be pro rated for a partial month).
To the extent that the Master Servicer, at the time of its removal or resignation, has theretofore expended any amounts as Advances with respect to any Mortgage Loan, which Advances remain Outstanding Advances as of such date, the Master Servicer shall thereafter be entitled to receive from the Successor Master Servicer, monthly, such information as may be generated by the Successor Master Servicer as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Master Servicer to monitor the recovery of, and collection efforts undertaken with respect to, such Outstanding Advances, which information will include details of collection activities, payment records and trial balances. To the extent that the Successor Master Servicer receives any amounts which relate to reimbursement for Outstanding Advances made by the prior Master Servicer, such amounts shall be remitted to the prior Master Servicer on the related Payment Date. To the extent that the Master Servicer, based upon the information supplied by the Successor Master Servicer, believes that any discrepancies exist between actual Outstanding Advances received by the Successor Master Servicer and the amounts forwarded to the Master Servicer as recovered Outstanding Advances, the Master Servicer and the Successor Master Servicer shall attempt in good faith to reconcile such discrepancies.
(f)
The Master Servicer agrees to cooperate reasonably with the Successor Master Servicer in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer’s servicing responsibilities and rights hereunder and shall promptly provide to the Successor Master Servicer all documents and records reasonably requested by it to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s functions hereunder and shall promptly also transfer to the Successor Master Servicer all amounts which then have been or should have been deposited in the Collection Account, or which are thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans. The Successor Master Servicer shall not be held liable for any acts or omissions of the prior Master Servicer or by reason of any failure to make, or any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof caused by (i) the failure of the Master Servicer to deliver, or any delay in delivering, cash, documents or records to it, or (ii) restrictions imposed by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall reimburse the Successor Master Servicer for its reasonable costs and expenses associated with the transfer of the master servicing following resignation of the Master Servicer or termination of the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 4.17.
Section 4.18. [Reserved]
Section 4.19. Standard Hazard and Flood Insurance Policies.
For each Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall enforce any obligation of the Servicer under the related Servicing Agreement to maintain or cause to be maintained standard fire and casualty insurance and, where applicable, flood insurance, all in accordance with the provisions of the related Servicing Agreement. It is understood and agreed that such insurance shall be with insurers meeting the eligibility requirements set forth in the applicable Servicing Agreement and that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or to be maintained on any REO Property, other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance.
Pursuant to Section 4.07, any amounts collected by the Master Servicer, or remitted to the Master Servicer by any Servicer, under any insurance policies maintained pursuant to this Section 4.19 (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the related Mortgage or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement) shall be deposited into the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.08. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer or any Servicer in maintaining any such insurance if the Mortgagor defaults in its obligation to do so shall be added to the amount owing under the Mortgage Loan where the terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit; provided, however, that the addition of any such cost shall not be taken into account for purposes of calculating the distributions to be made to Securityholders and shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer or such Servicer pursuant to Section 4.08.
Section 4.20. Presentment of Claims and Collection of Proceeds.
The Master Servicer shall (subject to Section 4.01 and to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement) cause the related Servicer to prepare and present on behalf of the Indenture Trustee and the Securityholders all claims under the Insurance Policies and take such actions (including the negotiation, settlement, compromise or enforcement of the insured’s claim and compliance with any applicable requirements of FHA or VA) as shall be necessary to realize recovery under such policies. Any proceeds disbursed to the Master Servicer (or disbursed to a Servicer and remitted to the Master Servicer) in respect of such policies, bonds or contracts shall be promptly deposited in the Collection Account upon receipt, except that any amounts realized that are to be applied to the repair or restoration of the related Mortgaged Property as a condition precedent to the presentation of claims on the related Mortgage Loan to the insurer under any applicable Insurance Policy need not be so deposited (or remitted).
Section 4.21. Maintenance of the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies.
(a)
Subject to Section 4.01, the Master Servicer shall not take, or knowingly permit any Servicer (to the extent such action is prohibited under the applicable Servicing Agreement) to take, any action that would result in non-coverage under any applicable Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of such Master Servicer or Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. The Master Servicer shall, subject to Section 4.01, use its reasonable best efforts to cause each Servicer (to the extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to keep in force and effect (to the extent that the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to maintain such insurance), primary mortgage insurance applicable to each Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable. The Master Servicer shall not, and shall not knowingly permit any Servicer (to the extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to, cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy that is in effect at the date of the initial issuance of the Mortgage Note and is required to be kept in force hereunder except in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable.
(b)
The Master Servicer agrees, subject to Section 4.01, to present, or to cause each Servicer (to the extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to present, on behalf of the Indenture Trustee and the Securityholders, claims to the insurer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies and, in this regard, to take such reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Pursuant to Section 4.07, any amounts collected by the Master Servicer or remitted to the Master Servicer by any Servicer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.08.
Section 4.22. Indenture Trustee To Retain Possession of Certain Insurance Policies and Documents.
The Indenture Trustee or the Custodian shall retain possession and custody of the originals of the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies or certificate of insurance, if applicable, and any certificates of renewal as to the foregoing as may be issued from time to time as contemplated by this Agreement. Until all amounts distributable in respect of the Mortgage Notes have been distributed in full and the Master Servicer otherwise has fulfilled its obligations under this Agreement, the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian shall also retain possession and custody of each Mortgage File in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee upon the execution or receipt thereof the originals of the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies and any certificates of renewal thereof, and such other documents or instruments that constitute portions of the Mortgage File that come into the possession of the Master Servicer from time to time.
Section 4.23. Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
The Master Servicer shall, subject to Section 4.01, cause each Servicer (to the extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to use its reasonable best efforts to foreclose upon, repossess or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of Mortgaged Properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments, all in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement.
Section 4.24. Compensation to the Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall be entitled either (a) to pay itself the Master Servicing Fee in respect of remittances from the Servicers prior to the deposit of such payment in the Collection Account or (b) to withdraw from the Collection Account, subject to Section 4.08, the Master Servicing Fee. Servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, if any, late payment charges, as collected, if any, or otherwise (but not including any prepayment premium or penalty or yield maintenance payment) shall be retained by the Master Servicer (or the applicable Servicer) and shall not be deposited in the Collection Account. In addition, the Master Servicer will be entitled to retain any Net Prepayment Interest Excess. If the Master Servicer does not retain or withdraw the Master Servicing Fee from the Collection Account as provided herein, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to direct the Indenture Trustee to pay the Master Servicing Fee to the Master Servicer by withdrawal from the Note Distribution Account to the extent that payments have been received with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan. The Master 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 provided in this Agreement. Pursuant to Section 4.07 all income and gain realized from any investment of funds in the Collection Account shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as additional compensation.
The Master Servicing Fee for each Payment Date shall be reduced as provided in Section 6.10.
Section 4.25. REO Property.
(a)
In the event the Trust acquires ownership of any REO Property in respect of any Mortgage Loan, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued to the Indenture Trustee, or to its nominee, on behalf of the related Securityholders. The Master Servicer shall use its reasonable best efforts, subject to Section 4.01 and to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, to cause the applicable Servicer to sell any REO Property as expeditiously as possible and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable. The Master Servicer shall, subject to Section 4.01, cause the applicable Servicer to protect and conserve such REO Property in the manner and to the extent required by the applicable Servicing Agreement.
(b)
The Master Servicer shall, subject to Section 4.01 and to the extent required by the related Servicing Agreement, cause the Servicer to deposit all funds collected and received in connection with the operation of any REO Property in the Collection Account.

The Master Servicer and the applicable Servicer, upon the final disposition of any REO Property, shall be entitled to reimbursement for any related Outstanding Advances and other unreimbursed advances from Liquidation Proceeds received in connection with the final disposition of such REO Property; provided, that any such Outstanding Advances may be reimbursed or paid, as the case may be, prior to final disposition, out of any net rental income or other net amounts derived from such REO Property.
(d)
The Liquidation Proceeds from the final disposition of the REO Property, net of any payment to the Master Servicer and the applicable Servicer as provided above shall be deposited in the Collection Account on or prior to the Determination Date in the month following receipt thereof and be remitted by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the Indenture Trustee for deposit into the Note Distribution Account on the next succeeding Master Servicer Remittance Date.
Section 4.26. Delinquency Advances and Servicing Advances.
(a)
Not later than 12:00 noon [ ] time on each Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Master Servicer, except as otherwise stated herein, shall advance funds (each such advance, a “Delinquency Advance”) to the Note Distribution Account in the amount of any Monthly Payment that is due during the related Due Period and not received by the Master Servicer from the related Servicer as of the related Determination Date; provided, however, that the Master Servicer will not be required to make any such Delinquency Advance (i) if the related Mortgage is listed on Schedule I-J hereto or (ii) if the Master Servicer determines in reasonable good faith that such Delinquency Advance would be a Non-Recoverable Advance. Such determination by the Master Servicer will be evidenced by a certificate signed by a Servicing Officer delivered to the Indenture Trustee no later than such Master Servicer Remittance Date for the related Payment Date. Each Delinquency Advance shall increase the Outstanding Advances with respect to the related Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer shall be permitted to fund Delinquency Advances from its own funds, and from amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account in excess of the Total Distribution Amount for the related Master Servicer Remittance Date.
(b)
The Master Servicer may recover Delinquency Advances (i) from the Collection Account out of collections on the Mortgage Loan whose delinquency gave rise to such Delinquency Advance subsequent to the related Due Period, from Liquidation Proceeds and/or Insurance Proceeds recovered on account of such Mortgage Loan to the extent of the amount of such Delinquency Advance prior to, or after, the deposit of such Liquidation Proceeds and/or Insurance Proceeds in the Collection Account and (ii) from the Collection Account generally, if such Delinquency Advance has been determined to be a Non-Recoverable Advance.
(c)
The Master Servicer, to the extent the Master Servicer becomes the successor to a Servicer pursuant to Section 4.10 and to the extent required by the related Servicing Agreement, will advance all “out-of-pocket” costs and expenses incurred in the performance of its servicing obligations with respect to defaulted Mortgage Loans, including, but not limited to, the cost of (i) Preservation Expenses, (ii) any enforcement or judicial proceedings, including foreclosures, and any reasonable legal expenses in connection with the assertion by a Mortgagor of any claim or defense that the Mortgagor may have had against the originator in connection with the sale, financing or construction of such Mortgagor’s home and which the Mortgagor asserts against the Master Servicer and (iii) the management and liquidation of REO Property, but shall only pay such costs and expenses to the extent the Master Servicer reasonably believes such costs and expenses will be recovered from the related Mortgage Loan and will increase Net Liquidation Proceeds on the related Mortgage Loan. Each such expenditure, if customary and reasonable, and exclusive of overhead, will constitute a “Servicing Advance.” The Master Servicer may recover a Servicing Advance from the Mortgagor to the extent permitted by the related Mortgage Loan, from the Collection Account out of collections on the related Mortgage Loan, from Liquidation Proceeds realized upon the liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan, from Insurance Proceeds collected with respect to the related Mortgage Loan prior to, or after, the deposit of such Liquidation Proceeds and/or Insurance Proceeds in the Collection Account or, if such Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds are insufficient to reimburse the Master Servicer for such Servicing Advance, from the Collection Account.
Section 4.27. Master Servicer Reports.
To the extent the Master Servicer receives timely information from each Servicer not later than 2:00 p.m. [ ] time two Business Days prior to each Payment Date, the Master Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee the related Master Servicer’s Monthly Report which shall contain (i) a summary report of Mortgage Loan payment activity for such month, (ii) delinquency summary reports for Mortgage Loans with respect to which scheduled payments due in such month were not made, (iii) an itemization by category of all amounts to be paid on the Payment Date and (iv) such other information as is necessary for the Indenture Trustee to report items in Sections 6.08(a) and (b); provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall provide the information detailed in clauses (iii) and (v) above with respect to the assets of the Trust Assets other than the Mortgage Loans only to the extent that it receives such information in a timely manner from the parties that are required to provide such information to the Master Servicer. In the event the Master Servicer does not receive timely information from each Servicer, the Master Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered the Master Servicer’s Monthly Report to the Indenture Trustee within [one] Business Day following the Master Servicer’s receipt of the necessary information.

(d)
The Master Servicer shall promptly notify the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee (i) of any legal proceedings pending against the Master Servicer of the type described in Item 1117 (§ 229.1117) of Regulation AB and (ii) if the Master Servicer shall become (but only to the extent not previously disclosed to the Indenture Trustee and the Depositor) at any time an affiliate of any of the Seller, the Indenture Trustee or any Servicer, Subservicer, Subcontractor or “Originator” contemplated by Item 1110 (§ 229.1110) of Regulation AB, any significant obligor contemplated by Item 1112 (§ 229.1112) of Regulation AB, any enhancement or support provider contemplated by Items 1114 or 1115 (§§ 229.1114-1115) of Regulation AB or any other material party to the Trust contemplated by Item 1100(d)(1) (§ 229.1100(d)(1)) of Regulation AB.

On or before March 1 of each applicable year, commencing in 20[ ], if the Master Servicer has, during the course of any fiscal year, directly serviced any of the Mortgage Loans, then the Master Servicer at its expense shall cause a nationally recognized firm of Independent Public Accountants to furnish a statement to the Trustee, the Rating Agencies and the Depositor, to the effect that, with respect to the most recently ended fiscal year, such firm has examined certain records and documents relating to the Master Servicer’s performance of its servicing obligations under this Agreement and pooling and servicing, transfer and servicing and trust agreements in material respects similar to this Agreement and to each other and that, on the basis of such examination conducted substantially in compliance with the audit program for mortgages serviced for FHLMC or the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers, such firm is of the opinion that the Master Servicer’s activities have been conducted in compliance with this Agreement, or that such examination has disclosed no material items of noncompliance except for (i) such exceptions as such firm believes to be immaterial, (ii) such other exceptions as are set forth in such statement and (iii) such exceptions that the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers or the Audit Program for Mortgages Serviced by FHLMC requires it to report. Copies of such statements shall be provided to any Securityholder upon request by the Master Servicer, or by the Trustee at the expense of the Master Servicer if the Master Servicer shall fail to provide such copies (unless (i) the Master Servicer shall have failed to provide the Trustee with such statement or (ii) the Trustee shall be unaware of the Master Servicer’s failure to provide such statement). If such report discloses exceptions that are material, the Master Servicer shall advise the Trustee whether such exceptions have been or are susceptible of cure, and will take prompt action to do so.
Section 4.30. Merger or Consolidation.
Any Person into which the Master Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion, other change in form or consolidation to which the Master Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Master Servicer, shall be the successor to the Master Servicer hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor to the Master Servicer shall be a Person that shall be qualified and approved to service mortgage loans for FNMA, FHLMC, FHA and VA and shall have a net worth of not less than $[ ].

The Master Servicer shall have no responsibility to file any items other than those specified in this Section; provided, however, the Master Servicer shall cooperate with the Depositor in connection with any additional filings with respect to the Trust as the Depositor deems necessary under the Exchange Act. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Trust for any expenses incurred in connection with such additional filings. Prior to January 30, 20[ ], the Master Servicer shall, in accordance with industry standards, sign on behalf of the Depositor and file a Form 15 Suspension Notification with respect to the Trust, if applicable. The Master Servicer shall, as promptly as practicable, prepare and deliver to the Depositor (or such Person as the Depositor shall designate) a Form 10-K, in substance conforming to industry standards, with respect to the Trust. On or prior to March 20, 20[ ] (provided that the executed Form 10-K and Form 10-K Certification are timely returned to it by the signing party), the Master Servicer shall file (but will not execute) such Form 10-K. The Form 10-K shall include (w) the certification required pursuant to Rule 13a-14 under the Exchange Act (the “Form 10-K Certification”) signed by an appropriate officer of the Depositor (which Form 10-K Certification the Master Servicer shall not be required to sign), (x) the annual certifications delivered by the Indenture Trustee, the Administrator, the Master Servicer and each Servicer, Subservicer or Subcontractor pursuant to this Agreement, the Servicing Agreements and any Subservicing Agreements, (y) the related public accounting firm attestation reports and (z) such other information as is required by SEC Rules and Regulation AB. If any party’s report on assessment of compliance with servicing criteria required by clause (x) in the immediately preceding sentence, or the related public accounting firm attestation report required by clause (y) in the immediately preceding sentence, identifies any material instance of noncompliance with the servicing criteria specified in paragraph (d) of Item 1122 of Regulation AB (§229.1122(d)), the Master Servicer shall identify the material instance of noncompliance in such report in the Form 10-K; and in the event that the Master Servicer is unable to include any report required by either clause (x) or (y) of the immediately preceding sentence in the form 10-K, the Master Servicer shall disclose such fact in the form 10-K together with an explanation as to why such report is not included as an exhibit in the Form 10-K. The Master Servicer shall have no liability for any delay in filing the Form 10-D, Form 10-K or Form 10-K Certification due to the failure of any party to sign such Form 10-D, Form 10-K, or Form 10-K certification. The Depositor agrees to promptly furnish to the Master Servicer, from time to time upon request, such further information, reports, and financial statements within its control related to this Agreement and the Mortgage Loans as the Master Servicer reasonably deems appropriate to prepare and file all necessary reports, and financial statements within its control related to this Agreement and the Mortgage Loans as the Master Servicer reasonably deems appropriate to prepare and file all necessary reports with the Commission. The Master Servicer shall have no responsibility to file any items other than those specified in this Section.
(b)
If so requested, the Master Servicer shall sign a certification (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit M) for the benefit of the Person(s) signing the Form 10-K Certification regarding certain aspects of such Form 10-K Certification (provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not be required to undertake an analysis of the accountant’s report attached as an exhibit to the Form 10-K).
Section 4.32. Assignment or Delegation of Duties by the Master Servicer.
Except as expressly provided herein, the Master Servicer shall not assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to any other Person, or delegate to or subcontract with, or authorize or appoint any other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by the Master Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall have the right without the prior written consent of the Indenture Trustee, the Depositor or the Rating Agencies to delegate or assign to or subcontract with or authorize or appoint an Affiliate of the Master Servicer to perform and carry out any duties, covenants or obligations to be performed and carried out by the Master Servicer hereunder. In no case, however, shall any such delegation, subcontracting or assignment to an Affiliate of the Master Servicer relieve the Master Servicer of any liability hereunder. Notice of such permitted assignment shall be given promptly by the Master Servicer to the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee. If, pursuant to any provision hereof, the duties of the Master Servicer are transferred to a Successor Master Servicer, the entire amount of the Master Servicing Fee and other compensation payable to the Master Servicer pursuant hereto after the date of such transfer, including amounts payable to or permitted to be retained or withdrawn by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.24 hereof, shall thereafter be payable to such Successor Master Servicer.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, as a condition to the utilization of any Subservicer or Subcontractor determined to be “participating in the servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122, the Master Servicer shall obtain from any such Subservicer or Subcontractor used by the Master Servicer for the benefit of the Depositor a written agreement from such Subservicer or Subcontractor (in form and substance satisfactory to the Depositor) to comply with the provisions of Sections 4.28 and 4.29 of this Agreement to the same extent as if such Subservicer or Subcontractor were the Master Servicer.
Section 4.33. Limitation on Liability of the Master Servicer and Others.
Neither the Master Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Master Servicer shall be under any liability to the Indenture Trustee, the Custodian, the Depositor or the Securityholders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Master Servicer or any such person against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in its performance of its duties or by reason of reckless disregard for its obligations and duties under this Agreement. The Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Master Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Master Servicer shall be under no obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not incidental to its duties to master service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Master Servicer may in its sole discretion undertake any such action that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Securityholders 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 Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of the Collection Account as provided in Section 4.08.
The Master Servicer shall not be liable for any acts or omissions of any Servicer except to the extent the Trust incurs damages or expenses as a result of such act or omissions and such damages and expenses would not have been incurred but for the negligence, willful misfeasance, bad faith or recklessness of the Master Servicer in supervising, monitoring and overseeing the obligations of the Servicers in accordance with Section 4.01 hereof.
Section 4.34. Transfer of Servicing.
The Servicing Rights Owner shall provide written notice to the Indenture Trustee and the Master Servicer thirty days prior to any transfer or assignment by the Servicing Rights Owner of its rights under any Servicing Agreement or of the servicing thereunder or delegation of its rights or duties thereunder or any portion thereof to any other Person.

(c)
There must be delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the Master Servicer a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such transfer of servicing will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Notes; provided, however, that this requirement shall not apply to any transfer of servicing to [ ] or to a successor servicer that is, prior to the date of such transfer, a Servicer of Mortgage Loans;
(d)
The Servicing Rights Owner shall, at its cost and expense, take such steps, or cause the terminated Servicer to take such steps, as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and evidence the transfer of the servicing of the related Mortgage Loans to such successor servicer, including, but not limited to, the following: (i) to the extent required by the terms of the Mortgage Loans and by applicable federal and state laws and regulations, the Servicing Rights Owner shall cause the prior Servicer to timely mail to each obligor under a Mortgage Loan any required notices or disclosures describing the transfer of servicing of the Mortgage Loans to the successor servicer; (ii) prior to the effective date of such transfer of servicing, the Servicing Rights Owner shall cause the prior Servicer to transmit to any related insurer notification of such transfer of servicing; (iii) on or prior to the effective date of such transfer of servicing, the Servicing Rights Owner shall cause the prior Servicer to deliver to the successor servicer all related loan documents and any related records or materials; (iv) on or prior to the effective date of such transfer of servicing, the Servicing Rights Owner shall cause the prior Servicer to transfer to the successor servicer, or, if such transfer occurs after a Servicer Remittance Date but before the next succeeding Master Servicer Remittance Date, to the Master Servicer, all funds held by the Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans; (v) on or prior to the effective date of such transfer of servicing, the Servicing Rights Owner shall cause the prior Servicer to, after the effective date of the transfer of servicing to the successor servicer, continue to forward to such successor servicer, within one Business Day of receipt, the amount of any payments or other recoveries received by the prior Servicer, and to notify the successor servicer of the source and proper application of each such payment or recovery; and (vi) the Servicing Rights Owner shall cause the prior Servicer to, after the effective date of transfer of servicing to the successor servicer, continue to cooperate with the successor servicer to facilitate such transfer in such manner and to such extent as the successor servicer may reasonably request;
(e)
In the event that the Servicing Rights Owner transfers its servicing rights under the applicable Servicing Agreement, any successor Servicing Rights Owner of the servicing rights shall acknowledge in writing that it is subject to the provisions of Section 4.06 in respect of the obligations of the Seller thereunder and Section 4.34 of this Agreement; and
(f)
Prior to amending any Servicing Agreement or consenting to any amendment or modification thereof, the Servicing Rights Owner shall obtain the prior written consent of the Master Servicer and the Indenture Trustee (such consent to be not unreasonably withheld).

The obligations of the Securities Intermediary hereunder shall continue in effect until the security interest of the Indenture Trustee in the Trust Accounts or of the Issuer in the Certificate Distribution Account, and in such Security Entitlements, has been terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Indenture Trustee or the Issuer, as applicable, has notified the Securities Intermediary of such termination in writing; and
(viii)
Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, the Depositor and the Issuer agree that the Trust Accounts and the Certificate Distribution Account will be established only with the Securities Intermediary or another institution meeting the requirements of this Section, which by acceptance of its appointment as Securities Intermediary agrees substantially as follows: (1) it will comply with Entitlement Orders related to the Trust Accounts issued by the Indenture Trustee, as collateral agent, without further consent by the Depositor or the Issuer, and with Entitlement Orders related to the Certificate Distribution Account issued by the Issuer, as collateral agent, without further consent by the Depositor; (2) until termination of the Trust or discharge of the Indenture, it will not enter into any other agreement related to such accounts pursuant to which it agrees to comply with Entitlement Orders of any Person other than the Indenture Trustee, as collateral agent with respect to the Trust Accounts or the Issuer, as collateral agent with respect to the Certificate Distribution Account; and (3) all assets delivered or credited to it in connection with such accounts and all investments thereof will be promptly credited to the applicable account.

Each of the Depositor and the Issuer agrees to take or cause to be taken such further actions, to execute, deliver and file or cause to be executed, delivered and filed such further documents and instruments (including, without limitation, any financing statements under the Relevant UCC or this Agreement) as may be necessary to perfect the interests created by this Section in favor of the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee and otherwise fully to effectuate the purposes, terms and conditions of this Section. The Depositor shall:
(i)
promptly execute, deliver and file any financing statements, amendments, continuation statements, assignments, certificates and other documents with respect to such interests and perform all such other acts as may be necessary in order to perfect or to maintain the perfection of the Issuer’s and the Indenture Trustee’s security interest in the Trust Account Property; and

Neither the Depositor nor the Issuer shall organize under the law of any jurisdiction other than the State under which each is organized as of the Closing Date (whether changing its jurisdiction of organization or organizing under an additional jurisdiction) without giving 30 days prior written notice of such action to its immediate and mediate transferee, including the Indenture Trustee. Before effecting such change, each of the Depositor or the Issuer proposing to change its jurisdiction of organization shall prepare and file in the appropriate filing office any financing statements or other statements necessary to continue the perfection of the interests of its immediate and mediate transferees, including the Indenture Trustee, in the Trust Account Property. In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Basic Documents relating to the Trust Account Property, each of the Depositor and the Issuer authorizes its immediate or mediate transferee, including the Indenture Trustee, to file in any filing office any initial financing statements, any amendments to financing statements, any continuation statements, or any other statements or filings described in this Section 6.02(e).
None of the Securities Intermediary or any director, officer, employee or agent of the Securities Intermediary shall be under any liability to the Indenture Trustee or the Securityholders for any action taken, or not taken, in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Securities Intermediary against any liability to the Indenture Trustee or the Securityholders which would otherwise be imposed by reason of the Securities Intermediary’s willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its obligations or duties hereunder. The Securities Intermediary and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Securities Intermediary may rely in good faith on any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Securities Intermediary shall be under no duty to inquire into or investigate the validity, accuracy or content of such document. The Issuer shall indemnify the Securities Intermediary for and hold it harmless against any loss, liability or expense arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and carrying out its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim of liability, except in those cases where the Securities Intermediary has been guilty of bad faith, negligence or willful misconduct.
