Indenture Trustee to Cooperate By each Payment Date, the Master Servicer will notify the Indenture Trustee whenever the Asset Balance of any Mortgage Loan has been paid in full during the preceding Collection Period. A Servicing Officer shall certify that the Mortgage Loan has been paid in full and that all amounts received in connection with the payment that are required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.02 have been so deposited or credited. Upon payment in full pursuant to Section 3.01, the Master Servicer is authorized to execute an instrument of satisfaction regarding the related mortgage, which instrument of satisfaction shall be recorded by the Master Servicer if required by applicable law and be delivered to the person entitled to it.

The Master Servicer shall return the Mortgage File to the Indenture Trustee when the need for it by the Master Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan is liquidated, in which case, upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer similar to that specified above, the Request for Release shall be released by the Indenture Trustee to the Master Servicer. To facilitate the foreclosure of the mortgage securing any Mortgage Loan that is in default following recordation of the assignments of mortgage in accordance with this Agreement, if so requested by the Master Servicer, the Indenture Trustee shall execute an appropriate assignment in the form provided to the Indenture Trustee by the Master Servicer to assign the Mortgage Loan for the purpose of collection to the Master Servicer or a subservicer. The assignment shall unambiguously indicate that the assignment is for the purpose of collection only. The Master Servicer will then bring all required actions in its own name and otherwise enforce the terms of the Mortgage Loan and deposit the Net Liquidation Proceeds, exclusive of Foreclosure Profits, in the Collection Account. If all delinquent payments due under the Mortgage Loan are paid by the mortgagor and any other defaults are cured, then the Master Servicer shall promptly reassign the Mortgage Loan to the Indenture Trustee and return the related Mortgage File to the place where it was being maintained.

With such certificate, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian a receipt signed by a Servicing Officer on behalf of the Master Servicer, and upon receipt of the foregoing, the Custodian shall deliver the Custodial File or such document to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall cause each Custodial File or any document therein so released to be returned to the Custodian when the need therefor by the Master Servicer no longer exists, unless (i) the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Certificate Account to the extent required by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or (ii) the Custodial File or such document has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Master Servicer has delivered to the Custodian a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which such Custodial File or such document were delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery. In the event of the liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, the Custodian shall deliver such receipt with respect thereto to the Master Servicer upon deposit of the related Liquidation Proceeds in the Certificate Account to the extent required by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

Such Mortgage Note shall be held by the Seller, in trust, for the purpose of canceling such Mortgage Note and delivering the canceled Mortgage Note to the Mortgagor in a timely manner as and to the extent provided under any applicable federal or state law. In the event the Seller grants a satisfaction or release of a Mortgage without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage, the Seller shall remit to the Purchaser the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan by deposit thereof in the Custodial Account. The Fidelity Bond shall insure the Seller against any loss it may sustain with respect to any Mortgage Loan not satisfied in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.
Trustee to Cooperate Upon the payment in full of the Principal Balance of any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer will notify the Trustee by a certification (which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 5.02 have been so deposited) of a Servicing Officer. Upon any such payment in full, the Servicer is authorized to execute, pursuant to the authorization contained in Section 5.01, an instrument of satisfaction regarding the related Mortgage, which instrument of satisfaction shall be recorded by the Servicer if required by applicable law and be delivered to the Person entitled thereto, it being understood and agreed that no expenses incurred in connection with such instrument of satisfaction shall be reimbursed from the Collection Account.
