(“DLJMC”), a Delaware corporation, as seller (“Seller”), XXXXX FARGO BANK, N.A.

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined will have the meanings assigned to them in Article I below or, if not defined therein, in the Standard Terms.
The terms and provisions of the Standard Terms are hereby incorporated by reference herein as though set forth in full herein. If any term or provision contained herein shall conflict with or be inconsistent with any provision contained in the Standard Terms, the terms and provisions of this Series Supplement shall govern. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Standard Terms. The Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall be dated as of the date of this Series Supplement.
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
As provided herein, the Trust Administrator shall elect that the Trust Fund be treated for federal income tax purposes as comprising four real estate mortgage investment conduits (each a “REMIC” or, in the alternative, “Subsidiary REMIC 1,” “Middle REMIC 1,” “Middle REMIC 2,” and “Master REMIC”). Each Class of Certificates (other than the Class AR and Class AR-L Certificates, the Exchangeable Certificates and the Exchangeable REMIC Certificates) and each Class of Uncertificated REMIC Interests represents ownership of a regular interest in the Master REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Class AR Certificates represent ownership of the sole class of residual interest in each of Middle REMIC 1, Middle REMIC 2, and the Master REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Class AR-L Certificates represent ownership of the sole class of residual interest in Subsidiary REMIC 1 for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Master REMIC shall hold as its assets the Class PP Reserve Fund and the several classes of uncertificated Middle Tier Interests in Middle REMIC 2 other than the Class MT2-R Interest, and each such Middle Tier Interest is hereby designated as a regular interest in Middle REMIC 2. Middle REMIC 2 shall hold as its assets the several classes of uncertificated Middle Tier Interests in Middle REMIC 1 other than the Class MT1-R Interest, and each such Middle Tier Interest is hereby designated as a regular interest in Middle REMIC 1. Middle REMIC 1 shall hold as its assets the several classes of uncertificated Lower Tier Interests in Subsidiary REMIC 1, other than the Class LT1-R Interest, and each such Lower Tier Interest is hereby designated as a regular interest in Subsidiary REMIC 1. Subsidiary REMIC 1 shall hold as its assets the Mortgage Loans and all collections and accounts related thereto. The startup day for each REMIC created hereby for purposes of the REMIC Provisions is the Closing Date. In addition, for purposes of the REMIC Provisions, the latest possible maturity date for each regular interest in each REMIC created hereby is the Distribution Date following the third anniversary of the scheduled maturity date of the Mortgage Loan having the latest scheduled maturity date as of the Cut-off Date.
Subsidiary REMIC 1
The following table sets forth (or describes) the class designation, interest rate, and initial principal amount for each uncertificated REMIC interest in Subsidiary REMIC 1:
Subsidiary REMIC 1 Interest | Initial Principal Balance | Interest Rate | Corresponding Class of Master REMIC Certificates |
LT1-A-IO | (1) | (2) | N/A |
LT1-Grp | (3) | (4) | N/A |
LT1-R | (5) | (5) | N/A |
________________
(1)
This interest has an initial principal balance equal to the aggregate Stated Principal Balances, as of the Cut-off Date, of the Class A-IO Mortgage Loans.
(2)
This interest shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the weighted average of the Net Mortgage Rates of the Class A-IO Mortgage Loans.
(3)
This interest has an initial principal balance equal to the aggregate Stated Principal Balances, as of the Cut-Off Date, of each Mortgage Loan other than the Class A-IO Mortgage Loans.
(4)
This interest shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the weighted average of the Net Mortgage Rates of the Mortgage Loans, other than the Class A-IO Mortgage Loans.
(5)
The Class LT1-R Interest does not have a principal balance and is not entitled to interest and represents the sole class of residual interest in Subsidiary REMIC 1. The Class AR-L Certificate represents beneficial ownership interest of the Class LT1-R Interest.
On each Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator shall allocate interest (in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of interest distributable on such Distribution Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans) to the Interests in Subsidiary REMIC 1 at the rates shown above, pro rata, based on the amount of interest accrued on each such Interest for the related Interest Accrual Period.
On each Distribution Date, principal collections and realized losses with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated as follows:
(i) First, to the class LT1-A-IO Interest, until its principal balance is equal to the principal balance of the Class A-IO Mortgage Loans immediately after such Distribution Date; and
(ii) Second, to the LT1-Grp Interest, any remaining amounts.
Any Assigned Prepayment Premiums payable to the Class PP Certificates with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated to the Class LT1-Grp Interest.
Middle REMIC 1
The following table sets forth (or describes) the class designation, interest rate, and initial principal amount for each class of Middle REMIC 1 Interests.

This interest has an initial principal balance equal to the aggregate of the Stated Principal Balances of each Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-Off Date.
(3)
This interest shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Net WAC.
(4)
The Class MT1-R Interest is the sole class of residual interest in Middle REMIC 1. It does not have an interest rate or a principal balance.
(5)
This interest shall also be entitled to receive Assigned Prepayment Premiums payable to the Class PP Certificates.
On each Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator shall allocate interest (in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of interest distributable on such Distribution Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans) to the Interests in Middle REMIC 1 at the rates shown above, pro rata, based on the amount of interest accrued on each such Interest for the related Interest Accrual Period.

The Class MT2-R Interest is the sole class of residual interest in Middle REMIC 2. It does not have an interest rate or a principal balance.

(1)
These Certificates are Exchangeable Certificates which will not be issued under this Pooling and Servicing Agreement and are not interests in the Master REMIC. The Exchangeable Certificates are issued under the Trust Agreement.
(2)
The initial Pass-Through Rate on the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-9, Class AR, Class AR-L, Class C-B-1, Class C-B-2, Class C-B-3, Class C-B-4, Class C-B-5 and Class C-B-6 Certificates is 6.4205% per annum. After the first Distribution Date, the per annum Pass-Through Rate on these Certificates will be equal to the Net WAC.
(3)
These Certificates shall be issued in uncertificated form and shall constitute the Uncertificated REMIC Interests. Each Class of Exchangeable REMIC Certificates issued under the Trust Agreement will be entitled to the same distributions of interest and principal, as applicable, as the corresponding Uncertificated REMIC Interest.
(4)
(5)
The pass-through rate on the Class A-3, Class A-5 and Class A-7 Certificates will be subject to a cap equal to Net WAC.
(5)
The initial Pass-Through Rate on the Class A-4, Class A-6 and Class A-8 Certificates is 0.4205% per annum. After the first Distribution Date, the per annum Pass-Through Rate on these Certificates will be equal to Net WAC minus 6.000% per annum.
(6)
The Class AR Certificates shall represent beneficial ownership of the MT1-R and MT2-R interests and of the residual interest in the Master REMIC.
(7)
The Class AR and Class AR-L Certificates are issued in minimum Percentage Interests of 20% increment in excess thereof, except that one Certificate of each of such Classes may be issued in an amount of $0.01.
(8)
The Class AR-L Certificates shall represent beneficial ownership of the LT1-R Interest.
(9)
The Class PP Certificates will be entitled to receive Assigned Prepayment Premiums from certain Mortgage Loans.
The foregoing REMIC structure is intended to cause all of the cash from the Mortgage Loans to flow through to the Master REMIC as cash flow on a REMIC regular interest, without creating any shortfall—actual or potential (other than for credit losses) to any REMIC regular interest. To the extent that the structure is believed to diverge from such intention the Trust Administrator shall resolve ambiguities to accomplish such result and shall to the extent necessary rectify any drafting errors or seek clarification to the structure without Certificateholder approval (but with guidance of counsel) to accomplish such intention.

(e)
The Trust Administrator shall provide (i) to any transferor of a Residual Certificate such information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the transfer of such Residual Certificate to any Person who is not a permitted transferee, (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code or the REMIC Provisions including reports relating to interest, original issue discount and market discount or premium and (iii) to the Internal Revenue Service the name, title, address and telephone number of the person who will serve as the representative of each REMIC created hereunder.

Neither the Trustee, to the extent directed or (in the case of a failure to act) not directed by the Trust Administrator, nor the Holders of the Residual Certificates shall take any action, cause the Trust Fund to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause the Trust Fund to take) any action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of each REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon a REMIC (including, but not limited to, the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Code Section 860F(a)(2) and the tax on prohibited contributions set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such event, an “Adverse REMIC Event”) unless the Trustee and the Trust Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action) to the effect that the contemplated action will not endanger such status or result in the imposition of such a tax.
The Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall not take or fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the Master Servicer, a Servicer or the Depositor has advised it in writing that it has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such action. In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to a REMIC or their assets, or causing any REMIC created hereunder to take any action, which is not expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator will consult with the Master Servicer, the Servicers and the Depositor or their designees, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to any REMIC created hereunder and the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall not take any such action or cause that REMIC to take any such action as to which the Master Servicer, any Servicer or the Depositor has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur.
In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to any REMIC created hereunder or the assets therein, or causing any REMIC created hereunder to take any action, which is not expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement, the Holders of the Residual Certificates will consult with the Trust Administrator or its designee, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to any REMIC created hereunder, and no such Person shall take any action or cause the Trust Fund to take any such action as to which the Trust Administrator has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur. The Trust Administrator may consult with counsel to make such written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne by the party seeking to take action not permitted by this Agreement.
At all times as may be required by the Code, the Trust Administrator will to the extent within its control and the scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein, maintain substantially all of the assets of the REMICs as “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.
(g)
In the event that any tax is imposed on “prohibited transactions” of any REMIC created hereunder, as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on “net income from foreclosure property” of such REMIC, as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, on any contributions to a REMIC after the Startup Day therefor pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed by the Code or any applicable provisions of state or local tax laws, such tax shall be charged (i) to the related Servicer, if such Servicer has in its sole discretion determined to indemnify the Trust Fund against such tax or if such tax arises out of or results from a breach of such Servicer’s duties under (x) Section 2.07(j) of this Agreement to not enter into any arrangement by which a REMIC would receive a fee or other compensation for services or to permit such REMIC to receive any income from assets other than “qualified mortgages” or “permitted investments”, (y) Section 3.01 of this Agreement to not make or any modification, waiver or amendment of any Mortgage Loan which would cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of any tax under Section 860F(a) or Section 860G(d) of the Code or (z) Section 3.11(d) of this Agreement to not cause any REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or to subject any REMIC created hereunder to the imposition of any federal, state or local income taxes on the income earned from such Mortgaged Property under Section 860G(c) of the Code of otherwise, (ii) to the Master Servicer, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Master Servicer of any of its obligations under this Agreement or if the Master Servicer has in its sole discretion determined to indemnify the Trust Fund against such tax, (iii) to the Trust Administrator, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Trust Administrator of any of its obligations under this Article II, (iv) to the Trustee, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its obligations under this Article II, or (v) otherwise against amounts on deposit in the Collection Account as provided by Section 3.08 and on the Distribution Date(s) following such reimbursement the aggregate of such taxes shall be allocated in reduction of the Interest Distribution Amount on each Class entitled thereto in the same manner as if such taxes constituted a Prepayment Interest Shortfall.
In accordance with Section 2.07(c), the related Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, shall promptly deposit in the Certificate Account any amount of such tax.
For purposes of this Section 2.07(g), a tax is imposed following the final and unappealable determination under the Code of the amount of such tax and written notice thereof by the Tax Matters Person to the party to be charged.
The failure of the related Servicer to promptly deposit in the Certificate Account any amount of such tax shall be an Event of Default, as provided in Section 8.01(b).
(h)
The Trust Administrator shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and records with respect to each REMIC created hereunder on a calendar year and on an accrual basis or as otherwise may be required by the REMIC Provisions.
(i)
Following the Startup Day, none of any Servicer, the Trustee (which will act only at the direction of the Trust Administrator or as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement) or the Trust Administrator shall accept any contributions of assets to any REMIC created hereunder unless (subject to Section 2.05) such Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust Administrator shall have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to make such contribution) to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in a REMIC will not cause that REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding, or subject that REMIC to any tax under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal, state and local law or ordinances.
(j)
None of any Servicer, the Trustee (which will act only at the direction of the Trust Administrator or as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement) or the Trust Administrator shall (subject to Section 2.05) enter into any arrangement by which a REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services nor permit such REMIC to receive any income from assets other than “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

(m)
In order to enable the Trust Administrator to perform its duties as set forth herein, the Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided to the Trust Administrator, within ten days after the Closing Date, all information or data that the Trust Administrator determines to be relevant for tax purposes to the valuations and offering prices of the Certificates, including, without limitation, the price, yield, prepayment assumption and projected cash flows of the Certificates and the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Administrator shall be entitled to rely upon any and all such information and data in the performance of its duties set forth herein. Thereafter, the Master Servicer shall provide, promptly upon request therefor, any such additional information or data that the Trustee or the Trust Administrator may from time to time reasonably request in order to enable the Trustee and the Trust Administrator to perform their duties as set forth herein and the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall be entitled to rely upon any and all such information and data in the performance of its duties set forth herein.

Prepayment Premiums
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a Principal Prepayment of a Non-Designated Mortgage Loan that requires the payment of a Prepayment Premium, the related Servicer may not waive any Prepayment Premium or portion thereof required by the terms of the related Mortgage Note unless (i) the related Mortgage Loan is in default or foreseeable default and such waiver (a) is standard and customary in servicing mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage Loans and (b) would, in the reasonable judgment of the related Servicer maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Premium and the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) (A) the enforceability thereof is limited (1) by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership, or other similar law relating to creditors’ rights generally or (2) due to acceleration in connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment, or (B) the enforceability is otherwise limited or prohibited by applicable law, (iii) the enforceability would be considered “predatory” pursuant to written guidelines issued by any applicable federal, state or local authority having jurisdiction over such matters, (iv) the related Servicer is unable to locate documentation sufficient to allow it to confirm the existence and amount of such Prepayment Premium after using commercially reasonable efforts to locate such documentation, which efforts shall include, but are not limited to, seeking such documentation from the Depositor, the Seller, the Custodians and from its own records or files or (v) the related Mortgaged Property has been damaged such that the current value of the property has been reduced by at least half as a result of a natural disaster or other insured or uninsured peril, and the Mortgagor has elected to pay the related Mortgage Loan in full rather than rebuild the Mortgaged Property. If one or more of the preceding conditions is satisfied, the related Servicer shall be obligated to waive the related Prepayment Premium. For the avoidance of doubt, the related Servicer may waive a Prepayment Premium in connection with a short sale or short payoff on a defaulted Mortgage Loan. If the related Servicer has waived all or a portion of a Prepayment Premium relating to a Principal Prepayment, other than as provided above, the related Servicer shall deliver to the Trust Administrator, to the extent such Prepayment Premium would have otherwise been payable to the Trust Administrator, no later than the next succeeding Cash Remittance Date, the amount of such Prepayment Premium (or such portion thereof as had been waived). If the related Servicer has waived all or a portion of a Prepayment Premium for any reason, it shall notify the Trust Administrator and DLJMC and shall include such information, including but not limited to the reason for such waiver, in any monthly reports it provides the Trust Administrator. For every Principal Prepayment of a Non-Designated Mortgage Loan that requires a Prepayment Premium, the Trust Administrator shall enforce the obligation of the related Servicer to either (a) notify the Trust Administrator of the waiver of such Prepayment Premium as indicated above or (b) to deliver to the Trust Administrator, to the extent such Prepayment Premium would have otherwise been payable to the Trust Administrator, the amount of such Prepayment Premium.
Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event the Prepayment Premium payable under the terms of the related Mortgage Note is less than the amount of the Prepayment Premium, such Servicer shall be permitted to conclusively rely on the information provided in the Mortgage Loan Schedule or any other information provided to such Servicer and set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule or other information provided to the related Servicer, such Servicer shall not have any liability or obligation with respect to such difference. Xxxxx Fargo, as Master Servicer, does not have any responsibilities pursuant to Section 3.03 of this Agreement with respect to any Prepayment Premium reported.

(D)
The Trust Administrator shall distribute the Mortgage Loan Purchase Price of any Optional Termination or Mortgage Loan Auction Price from an Auction Purchaser in excess of the Par Value to the holder of the Class AR-L Certificate on the related Optional Termination Date or Auction Date, as applicable.

(b)
On each Distribution Date, if the aggregate Class Principal Balance of all Senior and Class C-B Certificates exceeds the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans (after giving effect to distributions of principal and the allocation of all losses to such Certificates on such Distribution Date), such excess will be deemed a principal loss and shall be allocated by the Trust Administrator to the most junior Class of Group C-B Certificates then outstanding, in reduction of its Class Principal Balance.

SECTION 4.04
Monthly Statements to Certificateholders.
(a)

For purposes of the information reported in the monthly statement to certificateholders prepared by the Trust Administrator, a Mortgage Loan is considered to be delinquent when a payment due on any due date remains unpaid as of the close of business on the next following monthly due date. The determination as to whether a Mortgage Loan falls into this category is made as of the close of business on the last business day of each month. For example, a Mortgage Loan due for September 1 at the close of business on October 31 would be described as 30 to 59 days delinquent in the November trust and static pool reporting.

The Trust Administrator shall provide timely and adequate notification to all above parties and to the Certificateholders regarding any such change. The Trust Administrator may fully rely upon and shall have no liability with respect to information provided by the Master Servicer or any Servicer.
(b)
Upon request, within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, the Trust Administrator shall cause to be furnished to each Person who at any time during the calendar year was a Certificateholder, a statement containing the information set forth in items (i)(c), (i)(d), (ii)(c) and (ii)(d) of Exhibit S aggregated for such calendar year or applicable portion thereof during which such Person was a Certificateholder. Such obligation of the Trust Administrator shall be deemed to have been satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall be provided by the Trust Administrator pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from time to time in effect.
(c)
In addition to the foregoing, the Trust Administrator shall post an electronic file containing current loan level data with respect to the Mortgage Loans ("Loan Level Data"), on a monthly basis, to the website referred to in Section 4.04(a).

The Trust Administrator will not be required to provide the Loan Level Data in paper form.
(d)
The Depositor shall prepare a report containing loan level information as of the cut-off date (the “Cut-off File”) and furnish it to the Trust Administrator no later than the Closing Date. The format of and the data contained in such Cut-off File shall be determined solely by the Depositor, and shall be furnished by the Depositor to the Trust Administrator in a format intended for publication on the Trust Administrator’s website (“CTSLink”). The Trust Administrator shall have no responsibility or liability for preparation of the Cut-off File, manipulation of data in the Cut-off File, the adequacy or accuracy of the information furnished by the Depositor in the Cut-off File, and furthermore shall have no liability for the provision of private borrower information therein.

Except in connection with any transfer of a Private Certificate by the Depositor to any affiliate or any transfer of a Private Certificate from the Depositor or an affiliate of the Depositor to an owner trust or other entity established by the Depositor, in the event that a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the 1933 Act and such laws, in order to assure compliance with the 1933 Act and such laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer shall certify to the Trust Administrator in writing the facts surrounding the transfer in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit M (the “Transferor Certificate”) and such Certificateholder’s prospective transferee shall (i) deliver a letter in substantially the form of either (A) Exhibit N-1 (the “Investment Letter”), provided that all of the Private Certificates of a Class shall be transferred to one investor or the Depositor otherwise consents to such transfer, (B) Exhibit N-2 (the “Rule 144A Letter”) or (C) Exhibit N-3 (the “Regulation S Letter”) or (ii) there shall be delivered to the Trust Administrator at the expense of the transferor an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the 1933 Act and the Depositor consents to such transfer.

In the event that none of an Investment Letter, a Rule 144A Letter, a Regulation S Letter or an Opinion of Counsel referenced in (ii) above are furnished, such representations shall be deemed to have been made to the Trust Administrator by the transferee’s acceptance of a Private Certificate by any beneficial owner who purchases an interest in such Certificate in book-entry form.

In the event the representations referred to in the preceding sentence are not furnished, such representations shall be deemed to have been made to the Trust Administrator by the transferee’s acceptance of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate by any beneficial owner who purchases an interest in such Certificate in book-entry form. In the event that a representation is violated, or any attempt to transfer an ERISA-Restricted Certificate to a Plan is attempted without the delivery to the Trust Administrator of the Opinion of Counsel described above, the attempted transfer or acquisition of such Certificate shall be void and of no effect;

IN THE EVENT THAT A REPRESENTATION IS VIOLATED, OR ANY ATTEMPT TO TRANSFER THIS CERTIFICATE TO A BENEFIT PLAN INVESTOR IS ATTEMPTED WITHOUT THE DELIVERY TO THE TRUST ADMINISTRATOR OF THE OPINION OF COUNSEL DESCRIBED ABOVE, THE ATTEMPTED TRANSFER OR ACQUISITION OF THIS CERTIFICATE SHALL BE VOID AND OF NO EFFECT.

In connection with any proposed transfer of any ownership interest in a Residual Certificate to a U.S. Person, the Trust Administrator shall require delivery to it, and shall not register the transfer of a Residual Certificate until its receipt of (1) an affidavit and agreement (a “Transferee Affidavit and Agreement” attached hereto as Exhibit O) from the proposed transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trust Administrator, representing and warranting, among other things, that it is not a non-U.S. Person, that such transferee is other than a Disqualified Organization, that it is not acquiring its ownership interest in a Residual Certificate that is the subject of the proposed Transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person who is not other than a Disqualified Organization, that for so long as it retains its ownership interest in a Residual Certificate, it will endeavor to remain other than a Disqualified Organization, and that it has reviewed the provisions of this Section 6.02(g) and agrees to be bound by them, and (2) a certificate, attached hereto as Exhibit P, from the Holder wishing to transfer a Residual Certificate, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trust Administrator, representing and warranting, among other things, that no purpose of the proposed transfer is to allow such Holder to impede the assessment or collection of tax.
(3)
Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transferee Affidavit and Agreement by a proposed transferee under clause (B) above, if the Trust Administrator has actual knowledge that the proposed transferee is not other than a Disqualified Organization, no transfer of an ownership interest in a Residual Certificate to such proposed transferee shall be effected.
(4) Each Person holding or acquiring any ownership interest in a Residual Certificate agrees, by holding or acquiring such ownership interest, to require a Transferee Affidavit and Agreement from the other Person to whom such Person attempts to transfer its ownership interest and to provide a certificate to the Trust Administrator in the form attached hereto as Exhibit P.
(ii)
The Trust Administrator shall register the transfer of any Residual Certificate only if it shall have received the Transferee Affidavit and Agreement, a certificate of the Holder requesting such transfer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit P and all of such other documents as shall have been reasonably required by the Trust Administrator as a condition to such registration.
(iii)
(A) If any Disqualified Organization shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate, then the last preceding Holder that was other than a Disqualified Organization shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such transfer of such Residual Certificate. If any non-U.S. Person shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate, then the last preceding Holder that is a U.S. Person shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of the transfer to such non-U.S. Person of such Residual Certificate. If a transfer of a Residual Certificate is disregarded pursuant to the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1 or Section 1.860G-3, then the last preceding Holder that was other than a Disqualified Organization shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such transfer of such Residual Certificate. The Trust Administrator shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 6.02(g) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement.
(B)
If any purported transferee of a Residual Certificate shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section 6.02(g) and to the extent that the retroactive restoration of the rights of the Holder of such Residual Certificate as described in clause (iii)(A) above shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the Depositor shall have the right, without notice to the Holder or any prior Holder of such Residual Certificate, to sell such Residual Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Depositor on such terms as the Depositor may choose. Such purported transferee shall promptly endorse and deliver a Residual Certificate in accordance with the instructions of the Depositor. Such purchaser may be the Depositor itself or any affiliate of the Depositor. The proceeds of such sale, net of the commissions (which may include commissions payable to the Depositor or its affiliates), expenses and taxes due, if any, shall be remitted by the Depositor to such purported transferee. The terms and conditions of any sale under this clause (iii)(B) shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Depositor, and the Depositor shall not be liable to any Person having an ownership interest or a purported ownership interest in a Residual Certificate as a result of its exercise of such discretion.
(iv)
The Master Servicer and each Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Administrator, shall make available, upon written request from the Trust Administrator, all information reasonably available to it that is necessary to compute any tax imposed (A) as a result of the transfer of an ownership interest in a Residual Certificate to any Person who is not other than a Disqualified Organization, including the information regarding “excess inclusions” of such Residual Certificate required to be provided to the Internal Revenue Service and certain Persons as described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.860D-1(b)(5), and (B) as a result of any regulated investment company, real estate investment trust, common trust fund, partnership, trust, estate or organizations described in Section 1381 of the Code having as among its record holders at any time any Person who is not other than a Disqualified Organization. Reasonable compensation for providing such information may be required by the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Servicer from such Person.
(v)
The provisions of this Section 6.02(g) set forth prior to this Section (v) may be modified, added to or eliminated by the Depositor, provided that there shall have been delivered to the Trust Administrator the following:
(1)
written notification from each Rating Agency to the effect that the modification, addition to or elimination of such provisions will not cause such Rating Agency to downgrade its then-current rating of the Certificates; and
(2)
a certificate of the Depositor stating that the Depositor has received an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Depositor, to the effect that such modification, addition to or elimination of such provisions will not cause the Trust Fund to cease to qualify as a REMIC and will not create a risk that (i) the Trust Fund may be subject to an entity-level tax caused by the transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Person which is not other than a Disqualified Organization or (2) a Certificateholder or another Person will be subject to a REMIC-related tax caused by the transfer of applicable Residual Certificate to a Person which is not other than a Disqualified Organization.
(vi)
The following legend shall appear on each Residual Certificate:
ANY RESALE, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY BE MADE ONLY IF THE PROPOSED TRANSFEREE PROVIDES A TRANSFER AFFIDAVIT TO THE SERVICER AND THE TRUST ADMINISTRATOR THAT (1) SUCH TRANSFEREE IS NOT (A) THE UNITED STATES, ANY STATE OR POLITICAL SUBDIVISION THEREOF, ANY FOREIGN GOVERNMENT, ANY INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION, OR ANY AGENCY OR INSTRUMENTALITY OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING, (B) ANY ORGANIZATION (OTHER THAN A COOPERATIVE DESCRIBED IN SECTION 521 OF THE CODE) WHICH IS EXEMPT FROM THE TAX IMPOSED BY CHAPTER 1 OF THE CODE UNLESS SUCH ORGANIZATION IS SUBJECT TO THE TAX IMPOSED BY SECTION 511 OF THE CODE, (C) ANY ORGANIZATION DESCRIBED IN SECTION 1381(a)(2)(C) OF THE CODE (ANY SUCH PERSON DESCRIBED IN THE FOREGOING CLAUSES (A), (B), OR (C) BEING HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AS A “DISQUALIFIED ORGANIZATION”), OR (D) AN AGENT OF A DISQUALIFIED ORGANIZATION AND (2) NO PURPOSE OF SUCH TRANSFER IS TO ENABLE THE TRANSFEROR TO IMPEDE THE ASSESSMENT OR COLLECTION OF TAX. SUCH AFFIDAVIT SHALL INCLUDE CERTAIN REPRESENTATIONS AS TO THE FINANCIAL CONDITION OF THE PROPOSED TRANSFEREE. NOTWITHSTANDING THE REGISTRATION IN THE CERTIFICATE REGISTER OF ANY TRANSFER, SALE OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THIS CERTIFICATE TO A DISQUALIFIED ORGANIZATION OR AN AGENT OF A DISQUALIFIED ORGANIZATION, SUCH REGISTRATION SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE OF NO LEGAL FORCE OR EFFECT WHATSOEVER AND SUCH PERSON SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO BE A CERTIFICATEHOLDER FOR ANY PURPOSE HEREUNDER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE RECEIPT OF DISTRIBUTIONS ON THIS CERTIFICATE. EACH HOLDER OF THIS CERTIFICATE BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS CERTIFICATE SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE CONSENTED TO THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH.
(h)
The Trust Administrator shall have no liability to the Trust Fund arising from a transfer of any such Certificate in reliance upon a certification, ruling or Opinion of Counsel described in this Section 6.02; provided, however, that the Trust Administrator shall not register the transfer of any Residual Certificate if it has actual knowledge that the proposed transferee does not meet the qualifications of a permitted Holder of a Residual Certificate as set forth in this Section 6.02.

Termination upon Liquidation or Purchase of all Mortgage Loans.
The obligations and responsibilities of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Servicers, the Modification Oversight Agent, the Seller, the Depositor, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator created hereby with respect to the Trust Fund created hereby shall terminate upon the earlier of:
(A) the purchase by the Terminating Entity, at its election, of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any remaining Mortgage Loan which purchase right the Terminating Entity may exercise at its sole and exclusive election as of any Distribution Date (such applicable Distribution Date being herein referred to as the “Optional Termination Date”) on or after the date on which the aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans, at the time of the purchase is less than 10% of the aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date; or
(B)
the later of (i) twelve months after the maturity of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund, (ii) the liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and the disposition of all REO Property and (iii) the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to them pursuant to this Agreement; or
(C)
the purchase by the Auction Purchaser of all Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any remaining Mortgage Loan (the “Trust Collateral”) as described below.
In no event shall the trust created hereby continue beyond the earlier of (i) the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Xx. Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, former Ambassador of the United States to Great Britain, living on the date of execution of this Agreement or (ii) the Distribution Date following the third anniversary of the scheduled maturity date of the Mortgage Loan having the latest scheduled maturity date as of the Cut-off Date.
The “Mortgage Loan Purchase Price” for any such Optional Termination shall be equal to the greater of (a) the sum of (i) 100% of the Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan (other than in respect of REO Property) plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon from the date to which such interest was paid or advanced at the sum of the applicable Mortgage Rate, to but not including the Due Date in the month of the final Distribution Date (or the Net Mortgage Rate with respect to any Mortgage Loan currently serviced by the entity exercising such Optional Termination) and (ii) with respect to any REO Property, the lesser of (x) the appraised value of any REO Property as determined by the higher of two appraisals completed by two independent appraisers selected by the Depositor at the expense of the Depositor and (y) the Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan related to any REO Property, in each case and (iii) any remaining unreimbursed Advances and Servicing Advances and unpaid Servicing Fees, other than any remaining unreimbursed Advances and Servicing Advances and unpaid Servicing Fees, if any, due to the Terminating Entity, and other amounts payable to the Trustee and Trust Administrator (the sum of (i), (ii) and (iii), collectively, the “Par Value”) and (b) the Fair Market Value of all of the property of the Trust. The “Fair Market Value” shall be the fair market value of all of the property of the Trust subject to an Optional Termination, as agreed upon between the Terminating Entity and a majority of the holders of the Class AR-L Certificates; provided, however, that if the Terminating Entity and a majority of the holders of the Class AR-L Certificates do not agree upon the fair market value of all of such property of the Trust, the Terminating Entity, or an agent appointed by the Terminating Entity, shall solicit bids for all of such property of the Trust until it has received three bids, and the Fair Market Value shall be equal to the highest of such three bids. The Trust Administrator shall give notice to the Rating Agencies of election to purchase the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 11.01 and of the Optional Termination Date.
On any Distribution Date on or after the date on which the aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of the purchase is less than 5% of the aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date (the “Auction Date”), the Trust Administrator shall solicit bids for the all of the Trust Collateral from at least three institutions that are regular purchasers and/or Seller in the secondary market of residential whole mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage Loans. If the Trust Administrator receives at least three bids for all of the Trust Collateral, and one of such bids is equal to or greater than the Par Value, the Trust Administrator shall sell all of the Trust Collateral to the highest bidder (the “Auction Purchaser”) at the price offered by the Auction Purchaser (the “Mortgage Loan Auction Price”). If the Trust Administrator receives less than three bids, or does not receive any bid that is equal to or greater than the Par Value, the Trust Administrator shall, on each six-month anniversary of the initial Auction Date, repeat these auction procedures until the Trust Administrator receives a bid that is equal to or greater than the Par Value, and sells all of the Trust Collateral to the Auction Purchaser at the Mortgage Loan Purchase Price; provided, however, that the Trust Administrator shall not be required to repeat these auction procedures on any Distribution Date for any six-month anniversary of the initial Auction Date unless the Trust Administrator reasonably believes that there is a reasonable likelihood of receiving a bid in excess of the Par Value. The Trust Administrator shall give notice to the Rating Agencies and each Servicer that is servicing any of the Mortgage Loans of the sale of all of the Trust Collateral pursuant to this Section 11.01 (an “Auction Sale”) and of the Auction Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Auction Purchaser shall not be the Depositor or DLJMC or any of their respective affiliates.
SECTION 11.02
Determination of the Terminating Entity
(a)
If any Servicer intends to be the Terminating Entity, such party must give written notice to the Trust Administrator no later than twenty (20) days prior to the first day of the Optional Termination Notice Period. Upon receiving such notice, the Trust Administrator shall immediately request from DLJMC and DLJMC shall deliver no later than seventeen (17) days prior to the first day of the Optional Termination Notice Period a letter indicating whether or not DLJMC retains the servicing rights to any Mortgage Loan.
(b)
With respect to the purchase of the Mortgage Loans, the Trust Administrator shall determine the “Terminating Entity” as follows:

(ii) SPS, if (a) DLJMC is not the owner of the servicing rights with respect to any Mortgage Loan on the Optional Termination Date and (b) SPS is a Servicer with respect to any Mortgage Loan on the Optional Termination Date and SPS has given notice to the Trust Administrator pursuant to Section 11.02(a) above;
(iii) the Majority Servicer on the Optional Termination Date, if (a) DLJMC is not the owner of the servicing rights with respect to any Mortgage Loan on the Optional Termination Date and (b) SPS has not given notice to the Trust Administrator pursuant to Section 11.02(a) above.
(c)
No later than fifteen (15) days prior to the first day of the Optional Termination Notice Period, the Trust Administrator shall provide notice to each Servicer that is a servicer of any of the Mortgage Loans of the occurrence of the Optional Notice Period and the identity of those parties who may be entitled to be the Terminating Entity.
SECTION 11.03
Procedure Upon Optional Termination or Auction Sale.
(a)
In case of any Optional Termination the Terminating Entity shall, no later than ten (10) days prior to the first day of the Optional Termination Notice Period notify the Trustee and Trust Administrator of such Optional Termination Date and of the applicable purchase price of the Mortgage Loans to be purchased. Upon the purchase by the Terminating Entity of any Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 11.01, the Trust Administrator shall notify each Servicer that is servicing any of such Mortgage Loans of such purchase.
(b)
Any purchase of the Mortgage Loans by the Terminating Entity shall be made on an Optional Termination Date by deposit of the applicable purchase price into the Certificate Account, as applicable, before the Distribution Date on which such purchase is effected. Upon receipt by the Trust Administrator of an Officer’s Certificate of the Terminating Entity certifying as to the deposit of such purchase price into the Certificate Account, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator and each co-trust administrator and separate trust administrator, if any, then acting as such under this Agreement, shall, upon request and at the expense of the Terminating Entity execute and deliver all such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be reasonably requested by the Terminating Entity to vest title in the Terminating Entity in the Mortgage Loans so purchased and shall transfer or deliver to the Terminating Entity the purchased Mortgage Loans. Any distributions on the Mortgage Loans which have been subject to an Optional Termination received by the Trust Administrator subsequent to (or with respect to any period subsequent to) the Optional Termination Date shall be promptly remitted by it to the Terminating Entity.
(c)
Any purchase of the Trust Collateral by the related Auction Purchaser shall be made on an Auction Date by receipt of the Trust Administrator of the related Mortgage Loan Auction Price from the Auction Purchaser, and deposit of the such Mortgage Loan Auction Price into the Certificate Account by the Trust Administrator before the Distribution Date on which such purchase is effected. Upon deposit of such purchase price into the Certificate Account, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator and each co-trust administrator and separate trust administrator, if any, then acting as such under this Agreement, shall, upon request and at the expense of the Auction Purchaser execute and deliver all such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be reasonably requested by the Auction Purchaser to vest title in the Auction Purchaser in the Trust Collateral so purchased and shall transfer or deliver to the Auction Purchaser the purchased Trust Collateral.
(d)
Notice of the Distribution Date on which the Trust Administrator anticipates that the final distribution shall be made on a Class of Certificates (whether upon Optional Termination, Auction Sale or otherwise), shall be given promptly by the Trust Administrator by first class mail to Holders of the affected Certificates. Such notice shall be mailed no earlier than the 15th day and not later than the 10th day preceding the applicable Optional Termination Date, Auction Date or date of final distribution, as the case may be. Such notice shall specify (i) the Distribution Date upon which final distribution on the affected Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office or agency therein designated, (ii) the amount of such final distribution and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, such distribution being made only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office or agency maintained for such purposes (the address of which shall be set forth in such notice).

SECTION 13.01

The Depositor shall notify the Trust Administrator in writing, no later than the fifth calendar day after the related Distribution Date with respect to the filing of a report on Form 10-D and no later than March 15th with respect to the filing of a report on Form 10-K, if the answer to the questions should be “no.” The Trust Administrator shall be entitled to rely on such representations in preparing, executing and/or filing any such report.
SECTION 13.02

Within 15 days after each Distribution Date (subject to permitted extensions under the Exchange Act), the Trust Administrator shall prepare and file on behalf of the Trust Fund any Form 10-D required by the Exchange Act, in form and substance as required by the Exchange Act. The Trust Administrator shall file each Form 10-D with a copy of the related Monthly Statement attached thereto. Any disclosure in addition to the Monthly Statement that is required to be included on Form 10-D (“Additional Form 10-D Disclosure”) shall be reported by the parties set forth on Exhibit R hereto to the Depositor and the Trust Administrator and directed and approved by the Depositor pursuant to the following paragraph and the Trust Administrator will have no duty or liability for any failure hereunder to determine or prepare any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, except as set forth in the next paragraph.
As set forth on Exhibit R hereto, within 5 calendar days after the related Distribution Date, (i) the parties set forth thereon shall be required to provide to the Trust Administrator and the Depositor, to the extent known by a responsible party thereof, in XXXXX-compatible form, or in such other form as otherwise agreed upon by the Trust Administrator and such party, the form and substance of any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, if applicable together with an additional disclosure notification in the form of Exhibit V hereto (an “Additional Disclosure Notification”) and (ii) the Depositor will approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case may be, the inclusion of the Additional Form 10-D Disclosure on Form 10-D. The Depositor will be responsible for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or incurred by the Trust Administrator in connection with including any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure on Form 10-D pursuant to this paragraph.
After preparing the Form 10-D, the Trust Administrator shall forward electronically a copy of the Form 10-D to the Depositor for review. The Trust Administrator will provide a copy of the Form 10-D to the Depositor by the 11th calendar day after the related Distribution Date.

No later than the 13th calendar day after the related Distribution Date, the Depositor shall sign the Form 10-D and return an electronic or fax copy of such signed Form 10-D (with an original executed hard copy to follow by overnight mail) to the Trust Administrator. If a Form 10-D cannot be filed on time or if a previously filed Form 10-D needs to be amended, the Trust Administrator will follow the procedures set forth in Section 13.05. Promptly (but no later than 1 Business Day) after filing with the Commission, the Trust Administrator will make available on its internet website a final executed copy of each Form 10-D prepared and filed by the Trust Administrator. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that the performance by the Trust Administrator of its duties under this Section 13.02 related to the timely preparation and filing of Form 10-D is contingent upon such parties strictly observing all applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties under this Section 13.02. The Trust Administrator shall not have any liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare and/or timely file such Form 10-D, where such failure results from the Trust Administrator’s inability or failure to obtain or receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party hereto needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 10-D, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

The Depositor shall serve as the Certifying Person on behalf of the Trust. In the event any such party or any Servicing Function Participant engaged by such party is terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or any applicable sub-servicing agreement, as the case may be, such party shall provide a Back-Up Certification to the Certifying Person pursuant to this Section 13.09 with respect to the period of time it was subject to this Agreement or any applicable sub-servicing agreement, as the case may be.
