Acceptance of Mortgage Loans by Trustee (a) The Trustee acknowledges the sale, transfer and assignment of the Trust Fund to it by the Depositor and receipt of, subject to further review and the exceptions which may be noted pursuant to the procedures described below, and declares that it holds, the documents (or certified copies thereof) delivered to the Custodian, as its agent, pursuant to Section 2.01, and declares that it will continue to hold those documents and any amendments, replacements or supplements thereto and all other assets of the Trust Fund delivered to it as Trustee in trust for the use and benefit of all present and future Holders of the Certificates. On the Closing Date, the Custodian, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, shall acknowledge with respect to each Mortgage Loan by delivery to the Depositor and the Trustee of an Initial Certification receipt of the Mortgage File, but without review of such Mortgage File, except to the extent necessary to confirm that such Mortgage File contains the related Mortgage Note or lost note affidavit. No later than 90 days after the Closing Date (or, with respect to any Substitute Mortgage Loan, within five Business Days after the receipt by the Trustee or Custodian thereof), the Trustee agrees, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to review or cause to be reviewed by the Custodian on its behalf (under the Custodial Agreement), each Mortgage File delivered to it and to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Depositor and the Trustee an Interim Certification. In conducting such review, the Trustee or Custodian will ascertain whether all required documents have been executed and received, and based on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, whether those documents relate, determined on the basis of the Mortgagor name, original principal balance and loan number, to the Mortgage Loans it has received, as identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule. In performing any such review, the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, may conclusively rely on the purported due execution and genuineness of any such document and on the purported genuineness of any signature thereon. If the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, finds any document constituting part of the Mortgage File has not been executed or received, or to be unrelated, determined on the basis of the Mortgagor name, original principal balance and loan number, to the Mortgage Loans identified in Exhibit B or to appear defective on its face (a "Material Defect"), the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, shall promptly notify the Seller. In accordance with the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Seller shall correct or cure any such defect within ninety (90) days from the date of notice from the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, of the defect and if the Seller fails to correct or cure the defect within such period, and such defect materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall enforce the Seller's obligation under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to, within 90 days from the Trustee's or the Custodian's notification, provide a Substitute Mortgage Loan (if within two years of the Closing Date) or purchase such Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price; provided that, if such defect would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a "qualified mortgage" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure or repurchase must occur within 90 days from the date such breach was discovered; provided, however, that if such defect relates solely to the inability of the Seller to deliver the original Security Instrument or intervening assignments thereof, or a certified copy because the originals of such documents, or a certified copy have not been returned by the applicable jurisdiction, the Seller shall not be required to purchase such Mortgage Loan if the Seller delivers such original documents or certified copy promptly upon receipt, but in no event later than 360 days after the Closing Date. The foregoing repurchase obligation shall not apply in the event that the Seller cannot deliver such original or copy of any document submitted for recording to the appropriate recording office in the applicable jurisdiction because such document has not been returned by such office; provided that the Seller shall instead deliver a recording receipt of such recording office or, if such receipt is not available, a certificate confirming that such documents have been accepted for recording, and delivery to the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, shall be effected by the Seller within thirty days of its receipt of the original recorded document.
ACCEPTANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS BY INDENTURE TRUSTEE (a) The Indenture Trustee acknowledges receipt of, subject to the exceptions it notes pursuant to the procedures described below, the documents (or certified copies thereof) referred to in Section 2.1(b) of the Mortgage Loan Sale and Contribution Agreement, and declares that it or the Custodian holds and will continue to hold those documents and any amendments, replacements or supplements thereto and all other assets of the Trust as Indenture Trustee in trust for the use and benefit of all present and future Holders of the Notes. On the Closing Date or no later than the 45th day following the Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee shall certify to the Seller, the Depositor and the Servicer (and the Indenture Trustee if the Custodian is so certifying) that it has reviewed each Mortgage File and that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C-1 as not covered by such certification), (i) all documents constituting part of such Mortgage File required to be delivered to it pursuant to paragraphs (i) - (v) and (vii) of Section 2.1(b) of the Mortgage Loan Sale and Contribution Agreement are in its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it and appear regular on their face and relate to such Mortgage Loan, (iii) based on its examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule which corresponds to items (ii) and (iii) of the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File. If within such 45-day period the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee finds any document constituting a part of a Mortgage File not to have been executed or received or to be unrelated to the Mortgage Loans identified in said Mortgage Loan Schedule or, if in the course of its review, the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee determines that such Mortgage File is otherwise defective in any material respect, the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee shall promptly upon the conclusion of its review notify the Seller in the form of an exception report and the Seller shall have a period of ninety (90) days after such notice within which to correct or cure any such defect. On the 360th day following the Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee shall deliver to the Seller and the Servicer an exception report showing the documents outstanding pursuant to Section 2.1(b) of the Mortgage Loan Sale and Contribution Agreement along with a final certification annexed hereto as Exhibit C-2 updated from the previous certification issued in the form of Exhibit C-1. The Indenture Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee shall also maintain records adequate to determine the date on which any document required to be delivered to it after such 360th day following the Closing Date must be delivered to it, and on each such date, the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee shall review the related Mortgage File to determine whether such document has, in fact, been delivered. After the delivery of the final certification, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit C-2, (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee shall provide to the Servicer and the Seller (and to the Indenture Trustee if delivered by the Custodian), no less frequently than monthly, updated exception reports showing the documents outstanding pursuant to Section 2.1(b) of the Mortgage Loan Sale and Contribution Agreement until all such exceptions have been eliminated and (ii) the Seller shall provide to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee and the Servicer, no less frequently than monthly, updated certifications indicating the then current status of exceptions until all such exceptions have been eliminated; provided that the delivery of the final certification shall not act as a waiver of any of the rights the Noteholders may have with respect to such exceptions, and all rights are reserved with respect thereto. Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Custodian makes any representations as to, and shall not be responsible to verify, (i) the validity, sufficiency, legality, due authorization, recordation or genuineness of any document or (ii) the collectability, insurability or effectiveness of any of the Mortgage Loans.
Master Servicing of Mortgage Loans For and on behalf of the Certificateholders, 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 Agreement 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 this Agreement, subject to the prior two sentences, and with customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage loan master servicers. 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 receive, review and evaluate all reports, information and other data provided to the Master Servicer by each Servicer and shall 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 statements specified in Section 4.04 and any other information and statements required hereunder. 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. In accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph and to the extent the related Servicer does not make such advance, the Master Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary for the purpose of effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties, which advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.07, and further as provided in Section 3.08. The costs incurred by the Master Servicer, if any, in effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties and related insurance premiums shall not, for the purpose of calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders, be added to the Scheduled Principal Balances of the related Mortgage Loans, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loans so permit.
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS BY THE MASTER SERVICER Section 9.01 Duties of the Master Servicer; Enforcement of Servicer’s and Master Servicer’s Obligations.
Liquidation of Mortgage Loans In the event that any payment due under any Mortgage Loan and not postponed pursuant to Section 4.01 is not paid when the same becomes due and payable, or in the event the Mortgagor fails to perform any other covenant or obligation under the Mortgage Loan and such failure continues beyond any applicable grace period, the Servicer shall take such action as (1) the Servicer would take under similar circumstances with respect to a similar mortgage loan held for its own account for investment, (2) shall be consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, (3) the Servicer shall determine prudently to be in the best interest of the Owner, and (4) is consistent with any related PMI Policy or LPMI Policy. In the event that any payment due under any Mortgage Loan is not postponed pursuant to Section 4.01 and remains delinquent for a period of ninety (90) days or any other default continues for a period of 90 days beyond the expiration of any grace or cure period, the Servicer shall commence foreclosure proceedings, provided that, prior to commencing foreclosure proceedings, the Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer in writing of the Servicer's intention to do so, and the Servicer shall not commence foreclosure proceedings if the Master Servicer objects to such action within 10 Business Days of receiving such notice. In such connection, the Servicer shall from its own funds make all necessary and proper Servicing Advances, provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds in connection with any foreclosure or towards the restoration or preservation of any Mortgaged Property, unless it shall determine (a) that such preservation, restoration and/or foreclosure will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan to Owner after reimbursement to itself for such expenses and (b) that such expenses will be recoverable by it either through Liquidation Proceeds (respecting which it shall have priority for purposes of withdrawals from the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.05) or through Insurance Proceeds (respecting which it shall have similar priority). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in connection with a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, in the event the Servicer has reasonable cause to believe that a Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, or if the Owner or the Master Servicer otherwise requests an environmental inspection or review of such Mortgaged Property to be conducted by a qualified inspector, the Servicer shall cause such an environmental inspection or review to be made by a qualified inspector. Upon completion of the inspection, the Servicer shall promptly provide the Owner with a written report of the environmental inspection. After reviewing the environmental inspection report, the Master Servicer shall determine how the Servicer shall proceed with respect to the Mortgaged Property. In the event (a) the environmental inspection report indicates that the Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes and (b) the Master Servicer directs the Servicer to proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Servicer shall be reimbursed for all reasonable costs associated with such foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure and any related environmental clean up costs, as applicable, from the related Liquidation Proceeds, or if the Liquidation Proceeds are insufficient to fully reimburse the Servicer, the Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from amounts in the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.05 hereof. In the event the Master Servicer directs the Servicer not to proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Servicer shall be reimbursed for all Servicing Advances made with respect to the related Mortgaged Property from the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.05 hereof.
Conveyance of Mortgage Loans to Trustee (a) The Seller concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, sells, transfers and assigns to the Trust without recourse all its right, title and interest in and to (i) the Mortgage Loans identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, including all interest and principal due with respect to the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-off Date, but excluding any payments of principal and interest due on or prior to the Cut-off Date; (ii) such assets as shall from time to time be credited or are required by the terms of this Agreement to be credited to the Master Servicer Collection Account, (iii) such assets relating to the Mortgage Loans as from time to time may be held by the Servicers in Protected Accounts, the Master Servicer in the Master Servicer Collection Account and the Trustee in the Distribution Account for the benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders, (iv) any REO Property, (v) the Required Insurance Policies and any amounts paid or payable by the insurer under any Insurance Policy (to the extent the mortgagee has a claim thereto), (vi) the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to the extent provided in Subsection 2.03(a), (vii) the rights with respect to the Servicing Agreements as assigned to the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders by the Assignment Agreements and (viii) any proceeds of the foregoing. Although it is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that the conveyance of the Seller's right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and other assets in the Trust Fund pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan, in the event that such conveyance is deemed to be a loan, it is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted to the Trustee a first priority perfected security interest in all of the Seller's right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans and other assets in the Trust Fund, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.
Servicing of Mortgage Loans From and after the Effective Date, the Servicer does hereby agree to service the Mortgage Loans, but subject to the terms of this Agreement. The rights of the Owner to receive payments with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be as set forth in this Agreement.

Assumption of Master Servicing by Trustee (a) In the event the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Master Servicer (including by reason of any Event of Default under this Agreement), the Trustee shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of such Master Servicer hereunder and under each Purchase and Servicing Agreement and Servicing Agreement entered into with respect to the Mortgage Loans or shall appoint a Xxxxxx-Xxx or FHLMC-approved servicer as successor servicer acceptable to the Depositor and the Rating Agencies. The Trustee, its designee or any successor master servicer appointed by the Trustee shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Master Servicer’s interest herein and therein to the same extent as if each Purchase and Servicing Agreement and Servicing Agreement had been assigned to the assuming party, except that the Master Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations of the Master Servicer under each Purchase and Servicing Agreement and Servicing Agreement accruing prior to its replacement as Master Servicer, and shall be liable to the Trustee, and hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee from and against all costs, damages, expenses and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee as a result of such liability or obligations of the Master Servicer and in connection with the Trustee’s assumption (but not its performance, except to the extent that costs or liability of the Trustee are created or increased as a result of negligent or wrongful acts or omissions of the Master Servicer prior to its replacement as Master Servicer) of the Master Servicer’s obligations, duties or responsibilities thereunder.
Acceptance of REMIC I by Trustee The Trustee acknowledges receipt by the Custodian subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 above and subject to any exceptions noted on the exception report described in the next paragraph below, of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(v)) and all other assets included in the definition of "REMIC I" under clauses (i), (iii), (iv) and (v) (to the extent of amounts attributable thereto deposited into the Certificate Account) and declares that it holds and will hold 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 "REMIC I" in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall cause the Custodian to review each Mortgage File in accordance with the Custodial Agreement, on or before the Closing Date, and the Trustee shall cause the Custodian to certify in substantially the form attached to the Custodial Agreement as Exhibit 1 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 constituting part of such Mortgage File (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(v)) required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement are in its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by the Custodian and appear regular on their face and relate to such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on the Custodian's examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to items (i), (ii), (x), (xi) and (xiv) of the definition of "Mortgage Loan Schedule" accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File. It is herein acknowledged that, in conducting such review, the Trustee (or the Custodian, as applicable) is under no duty or obligation (i) to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine whether they are genuine, enforceable, valid, legally binding, effective or appropriate for the represented purpose or whether they have actually been recorded or are in recordable form or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face, (ii) to determine whether any Mortgage File should include any of the documents specified in clause (v) of Section 2.01 or (iii) to determine the perfection or priority of any security interest in any such documents or instruments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in conducting the review described in this Section 2.02, the Trustee (or the Custodian, if applicable, shall not be responsible for determining (i) if an Assignment is sufficient under the laws of the jurisdiction wherein the related Mortgaged Property is located to reflect of record the sale of the Mortgage or (ii) if a Mortgage creates a first or second lien on, or first or second priority security interest in, a Mortgaged Property. Prior to the first anniversary date of this Agreement, the Trustee shall cause the Custodian to deliver as required under the Custodial Agreement to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Servicer a final certification in the form attached to the Custodial Agreement as Exhibit 2 evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon, and the Servicer shall forward a copy thereof to any Sub-Servicer. If in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making or preparing, as the case may be, the certifications referred to above, the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, 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 Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall so notify the Depositor and the Servicer. In addition, upon the discovery by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Custodian or the Trustee of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by either the Responsible Party or the Seller in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects such Mortgage Loan or the interests of the Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties. The Trustee shall, at the written request and expense of any Certificateholder, cause the Custodian to provide a written report to the Trustee for forwarding to such Certificateholder of all Mortgage Files released to the Servicer for servicing purposes. The Depositor and the Trustee intend that the assignment and transfer herein contemplated is absolute and constitutes a sale of the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes and the related documents, conveying good title thereto free and clear of any liens and encumbrances, from the Depositor to the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders and that such property not be part of the Depositor's estate or property of the Depositor in the event of any insolvency by the Depositor. In the event that such conveyance is deemed to be, or to be made as security for, a loan, the parties intend that the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted and does hereby grant to the Trustee a first priority perfected security interest in all of the Depositor's right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes and the related documents, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.
