No Contractual Relationship Between Any Servicer and Trustee or Depositor Any Servicing Agreement that may be entered into and any other transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving any Servicer in its capacity as such and not as an originator shall be deemed to be between such Servicer, the Seller and the Master Servicer, and the Trustee, any NIMS Insurer and the Depositor shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to such Servicer except as set forth in Section 9.10 hereof, but shall have rights thereunder as third party beneficiaries. It is furthermore understood and agreed by the parties hereto that the obligations of any Servicer are set forth in their entirety in such Servicer’s related Servicing Agreement and such Servicer has no obligations under and is not otherwise bound by the terms of this Agreement.
Oversight of Servicing The Master Servicer shall supervise, monitor and oversee the servicing of the Mortgage Loans by each Servicer and the performance by each Servicer of all services, duties, responsibilities and obligations (including the obligation to maintain an Errors and Omissions Policy and Fidelity Bond) that are to be observed or performed by the Servicer under its respective Servicing Agreement. In performing its obligations hereunder, the Master Servicer shall act in a manner consistent with Accepted Master Servicing Practices and in a manner consistent with the terms and provisions of any insurance policy required to be maintained by the Master Servicer or any Servicer pursuant to this Agreement or any Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer acknowledges that prior to taking certain actions required to service the Mortgage Loans, each Servicing Agreement provides that the Servicer thereunder must notify, consult with, obtain the consent of, waiver from, or otherwise follow the instructions of the Master Servicer. In the case of any request for waiver from a Servicer, the Master Servicer shall promptly instruct such Servicer or otherwise respond to such Servicer's request. The Master Servicer shall not waive compliance by a Servicer with those provisions of its Servicing Agreement which are required to enable the Depositor and the Master Servicer to satisfy the Trust's ongoing reporting obligations under the Exchange Act. In addition, in no event will the Master Servicer instruct such Servicer to take any action, give any consent to action by such Servicer or waive compliance by such Servicer with any provision of such Servicer's Servicing Agreement if any resulting action or failure to act would be inconsistent with the requirements of the Rating Agencies that rated the Certificates, would be inconsistent with the requirements of Regulation AB or would otherwise have an adverse effect on the Certificateholders. Any such action or failure to act shall be deemed to have an adverse effect on the Certificateholders if such action or failure to act either results in (i) the downgrading of the rating assigned by either Rating Agency to the Certificates, (ii) the loss by the Trust Estate of REMIC status for federal income tax purposes or (iii) the imposition of any Prohibited Transaction Tax or any federal taxes on either the REMIC or the Trust Estate. The Master Servicer shall have full power and authority in its sole discretion to take any action with respect to the Trust Estate as may be necessary or advisable to avoid the circumstances specified including clause (ii) or (iii) of the preceding sentence. For the purposes of determining whether any modification of a Mortgage Loan shall be permitted by the Master Servicer, such modification shall be construed as a substitution of the modified Mortgage Loan for the Mortgage Loan originally deposited in the Trust Estate if it would be a "significant modification" within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the regulations of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. No modification shall be approved unless (i) the modified Mortgage Loan would qualify as a Substitute Mortgage Loan under Section 2.02 and (ii) with respect to any modification that occurs more than three months after the Closing Date and is not the result of a default or a reasonably foreseeable default under the Mortgage Loan, there is delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to modify the Mortgage Loan) to the effect that such modification would not be treated as giving rise to a new debt instrument for federal income tax purposes as described in the preceding sentence; provided, however, that no such Opinion of Counsel need be delivered if the sole purpose of the modification is to reduce the Monthly Payment on a Mortgage Loan as a result of a Curtailment such that the Mortgage Loan is fully amortized by its original maturity date. During the term of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall consult fully with each Servicer as may be necessary from time to time to perform and carry out the Master Servicer's obligations hereunder and otherwise exercise reasonable efforts to cause such Servicer to perform and observe the covenants, obligations and conditions to be performed or observed by it under its Servicing Agreement. The relationship of the Master Servicer to the Trustee under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent. The Master Servicer shall administer the Trust Estate on behalf of the Trustee and shall have full power and authority, acting alone or (subject to the requirements of Section 6.06) through one or more Subcontractors, to do any and all things in connection with such administration which it may deem necessary or desirable. Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and from time to time as may be required thereafter, the Trustee shall furnish the Master Servicer or its Subcontractors with any powers of attorney and such other documents as may be necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to carry out its administrative duties hereunder. The Depositor shall have a limited option to repurchase any defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Mortgage Loan during the following time periods: (i) beginning on the first day of the second month following the month in which the Master Servicer has reported that a Servicer has initiated foreclosure proceedings with respect to such a defaulted Mortgage Loan, with such repurchase option expiring on the last day of such second following month; (ii) beginning on the first day of the second month following the month in which the Master Servicer has reported that such defaulted Mortgage Loan has become an REO Mortgage Loan, with such repurchase option expiring on the last day of such second following month; and (iii) beginning on the day on which a Servicer accepts a contractual commitment by a third party to purchase the Mortgaged Property related to the defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Mortgage Loan, with such repurchase option expiring on the earlier of the last day of the month in which such contractual commitment was accepted by the Servicer or the day immediately prior to the day on which the closing occurs with respect to such third party purchase of the Mortgaged Property related to the defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Mortgage Loan. The Depositor shall be entitled to repurchase at its option any Mortgage Loan in the Trust Estate which, pursuant to paragraph 5(b) of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, Wells Fargo Bank requests the Depositor to repurchase and to sell to Xxxxx Fargo Bank to facilitate the exercise of Wells Fargo Bank's rigxxx xgainst the originator or a prior holder of xxxx Mortgage Loan. The purchase price for any Mortgage Loan repurchased pursuant to this paragraph shall be the Repurchase Price. Upon the receipt of such Repurchase Price, the Master Servicer shall provide to the Trustee the certification required by Section 3.04 and the Trustee and the Custodian, if any, shall promptly release to the Depositor the Owner Mortgage Loan File and Retained Mortgage Loan File, if applicable, relating to the Mortgage Loan being repurchased. In the event that (i) the Master Servicer determines at any time that, notwithstanding the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.03(b), any Mortgage Loan is not a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning of Section 860G of the Code and (ii) the Trustee is unable to enforce the obligation of the Depositor to purchase such Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.02 within two months of such determination, the Master Servicer shall cause such Mortgage Loan to be auctioned to the highest bidder and sold out of the Trust Estate no later than the date 90 days after such determination. In the event of any such sale of a Mortgage Loan, the Custodian shall, at the written request of the Master Servicer and upon being supported with appropriate forms therefor, within five Business Days of the deposit by the Master Servicer of the proceeds of such auction into the Certificate Account, release or cause to be released to the entity identified by the Master Servicer the related Owner Mortgage Loan File, Retained Mortgage Loan File, if applicable, and Servicer Mortgage Loan File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the auction purchaser title to the Mortgage Loan and the Custodian shall have no further responsibility with regard to such Owner Mortgage Loan File, Retained Mortgage Loan File, if applicable, or Servicer Mortgage Loan File. None of the Trustee, the Custodian, the Master Servicer or any Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee, shall provide financing from the Trust Estate to any purchaser of a Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, pursuant to the Servicing Agreements, object to the foreclosure upon, or other related conversion of the ownership of, any Mortgaged Property by the related Servicer if (i) the Master Servicer believes such Mortgaged Property may be contaminated with or affected by hazardous wastes or hazardous substances or (ii) such Servicer does not agree to administer such Mortgaged Property, once the related Mortgage Loan becomes an REO Mortgage Loan, in a manner which would not result in a federal tax being imposed upon the Trust Estate or the REMIC. At the direction of the Depositor, the Master Servicer may enter into a special servicing agreement with an unaffiliated holder of 100% Percentage Interest of a Class of Class B Certificates or a holder of a class of securities representing interests in the Class B Certificates and/or other subordinated mortgage pass-through certificates (such entity, a "Special Servicer"), such agreement (a "Special Servicing Agreement") to be substantially in the form of Exhibit M hereto or subject to each Rating Agency's acknowledgment that the ratings of the Certificates in effect immediately prior to the entering into of such agreement would not be qualified, downgraded or withdrawn and the Certificates would not be placed on credit review status (except for possible upgrading) as a result of such agreement. Any such agreement may contain provisions whereby such holder may (a) purchase any Mortgage Loans that are more than 180 days delinquent and (b) instruct the Master Servicer to instruct a Servicer to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement to commence or delay foreclosure proceedings with respect to delinquent Mortgage Loans and will contain provisions for the deposit of cash by the holder that would be available for distribution to Certificateholders if Liquidation Proceeds are less than they otherwise may have been had the Servicer acted in accordance with its normal procedures. The Master Servicer shall monitor the rating of Wells Fargo & Company and upon the occurrence of a Document Transfer Xxxxx relating to such rating, shall promptly notify the Depositor, Trustee and Custodian of the occurrence of such Document Transfer Event.
No Contractual Relationship Between Subservicer and Trustee or Certificateholders Any Subservicing Agreement that may be entered into and any other transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Subservicer in its capacity as such and not as an originator shall be deemed to be between the Subservicer and the Master Servicer alone and the Trustee and the Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the Subservicer in its capacity as such except as set forth in Section 3.06. The foregoing provision shall not in any way limit a Subservicer's obligation to cure an omission or defect or to repurchase a Mortgage Loan as referred to in Section 2.02 hereof.
The Owner Trustee’s Compensation The Depositor shall cause the Servicer to agree to pay to Xxxxx Fargo pursuant to Section 3.11 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement from time to time compensation for all services rendered by Xxxxx Fargo under this Agreement pursuant to a fee letter between the Servicer and the Owner Trustee (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust). The Servicer, pursuant to Section 3.11 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the fee letter between the Servicer and the Owner Trustee, shall reimburse Xxxxx Fargo upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by Xxxxx Fargo in accordance with any provision of this Agreement (including the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of such agents, experts and counsel as Xxxxx Fargo may employ in connection with the exercise and performance of its rights and its duties hereunder), except any such expense as may be attributable to its willful misconduct, negligence (other than an error in judgment) or bad faith. To the extent not paid by the Servicer, such fees and reasonable expenses shall be paid in accordance with Section 4.4 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement or Section 5.4(b) of the Indenture, as applicable.
RESPONSIBILITY OF PFPC TRUST (a) PFPC Trust shall be under no duty to take any action hereunder on behalf of the Fund or any Portfolio except as specifically set forth herein or as may be specifically agreed to by PFPC Trust and the Fund in a written amendment hereto. PFPC Trust shall be obligated to exercise care and diligence in the performance of its duties hereunder and to act in good faith in performing services provided for under this Agreement. PFPC Trust shall be liable only for any damages arising out of PFPC Trust's failure to perform its duties under this Agreement to the extent such damages arise out of PFPC Trust's willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its duties under this Agreement.
Restrictions on the Certificateholders’ Power The Certificateholders shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action if such action or inaction would be contrary to any obligations of the Trust or of the Owner Trustee under any of the Basic Documents or would be contrary to Section 2.03 nor shall the Owner Trustee be obligated to follow any such direction, if given.
