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.
Supplemental Agreements Without Consent of Certificateholders Without the consent of the Certificateholders, the Company may (but will not be required to), and the Trustee (subject to Section 9.03) shall, at the Company's request, at any time and from time to time, enter into one or more agreements supplemental hereto or, if applicable, to the Intercreditor Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Note Purchase Agreement, the Deposit Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement or any Liquidity Facility in form satisfactory to the Trustee, for any of the following purposes:
Depositor as Certificateholder The Depositor in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates and may otherwise deal with the Owner Trustee or its Affiliates as if it were not the Depositor.
Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments; Deposits to Custodial Account (a) The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any related Primary Insurance Policy, follow such collection procedures as it would employ in its good faith business judgment and which are normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities. Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or any prepayment charge or penalty interest in connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan and (ii) extend the Due Date for payments due on a Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Program Guide; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall first determine that any such waiver or extension will not impair the coverage of any related Primary Insurance Policy or materially adversely affect the lien of the related Mortgage. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall not enforce any prepayment charge to the extent that such enforcement would violate any applicable law. In the event of any such arrangement, the Master Servicer shall make timely advances on the related Mortgage Loan during the scheduled period in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements unless otherwise agreed to by the Holders of the Classes of Certificates affected thereby; provided, however, that no such extension shall be made if any such advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer may also waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor if in the Master Servicer's determination such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders (taking into account any estimated Realized Loss that might result absent such action); provided, however, that the Master Servicer may not modify materially or permit any Subservicer to modify any Mortgage Loan, including without limitation any modification that would change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of any principal or interest (unless in connection with the liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan or except in connection with prepayments to the extent that such reamortization is not inconsistent with the terms of the Mortgage Loan), capitalize any amounts owing on the Mortgage Loan by adding such amount to the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, or extend the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan, unless such Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Master Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable; provided, further, that (1) no such modification shall reduce the interest rate on a Mortgage Loan below one-half of the Mortgage Rate as in effect on the Cut-off Date, but not less than the sum of the rates at which the Servicing Fee and the Subservicing Fee with respect to such Mortgage Loan accrues plus the rate at which the premium paid to the Certificate Insurer, if any, accrues, (2) the final maturity date for any Mortgage Loan shall not be extended beyond the Maturity Date, (3) the Stated Principal Balance of all Reportable Modified Mortgage Loans subject to Servicing Modifications (measured at the time of the Servicing Modification and after giving effect to any Servicing Modification) can be no more than five percent of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, unless such limit is increased from time to time with the consent of the Rating Agencies and the Certificate Insurer, if any. In addition, any amounts owing on a Mortgage Loan added to the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan must be fully amortized over the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan, and such amounts may be added to the outstanding principal balance of a Mortgage Loan only once during the life of such Mortgage Loan. Also, the addition of such amounts described in the preceding sentence shall be implemented in accordance with the Program Guide and may be implemented only by Subservicers that have been approved by the Master Servicer for such purpose. In connection with any Curtailment of a Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of the Mortgage Note and local law and practice, may permit the Mortgage Loan to be reamortized such that the Monthly Payment is recalculated as an amount that will fully amortize the remaining Stated Principal Balance thereof by the original Maturity Date based on the original Mortgage Rate; provided, that such re-amortization shall not be permitted if it would constitute a reissuance of the Mortgage Loan for federal income tax purposes, except if such reissuance is described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(b)(3).
Amendments Without Consent of Certificateholders or Noteholders This Agreement may be amended by the Depositor and the Owner Trustee without the consent of any of the Noteholders or any other Persons who may be Certificateholders (but with prior notice to each of the Rating Agencies from the Depositor), to (i) cure any ambiguity, (ii) correct or supplement any provision in this Agreement that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision in this Agreement or any other Basic Document, (iii) add or supplement any credit enhancement for the benefit of the Noteholders or Certificateholders (provided that if any such addition shall affect any class of Noteholders or Certificateholders differently from any other class of Noteholders or Certificateholders, then such addition shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any class of the Noteholders or Certificateholders), (iv) add to the covenants, restrictions or obligations of the Depositor or the Owner Trustee, (v) evidence and provide for the acceptance of the appointment of a successor trustee with respect to the Owner Trust Estate and add to or change any provisions as shall be necessary to facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one trustee pursuant to Article VI, and (vi) add, change or eliminate any other provision of this Agreement in any manner that shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Noteholders or Unaffiliated Certificateholders.
Depository Banks The Borrowers and their Subsidiaries will maintain the Administrative Agent as its principal depository bank, including for the maintenance of operating, administrative, cash management, collection activity, and other deposit accounts for the conduct of its business.
Amendments With Consent of Certificateholders and Noteholders This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor and the Owner Trustee with the consent of Noteholders whose Notes evidence not less than a majority of the Outstanding Amount of the Controlling Class as of the close of the preceding Distribution Date and, if any Person other than the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor holds any Certificates, the consent of the Majority Certificateholders as of the close of the preceding Distribution Date (which consent, whether given pursuant to this Section 8.2 or pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement, shall be conclusive and binding on such Person and on all future holders of such Notes or Certificates and of any Notes or Certificates issued upon the transfer thereof or in exchange thereof or in lieu thereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon any Notes or Certificates) for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement, or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Certificateholders; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (a) without the consent of the holder of the affected Note or Certificate, as applicable, increase or reduce the interest rate or principal amount of any Note or change any Distribution Date or the Final Scheduled Distribution Date of any Note or distributions on the Certificates (without the consent of the holders hereof), (b) increase or reduce the amount of the required Specified Reserve Account Balance without the consent of all of the Noteholders or Certificateholders then outstanding, (c) adversely affect the rating of any Securities by any of the Rating Agencies without the consent of the holders of two-thirds of the Outstanding Amount of an affected class of Notes or two-thirds of the Voting Interests of affected Certificates, as appropriate, each as of the close of the preceding Distribution Date or (d) reduce the aforesaid percentage required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the holders of all Notes and Certificates then outstanding. The Depositor shall furnish notice to each of the Rating Agencies prior to obtaining consent to any proposed amendment under this Section 8.2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, an Opinion of Counsel shall be delivered to the effect that such amendment would not cause the Trust to fail to qualify as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes.
Advances by Master Servicer and Trustee (a) In the event an Other Servicer fails to make any required Periodic Advances of principal and interest on a Mortgage Loan as required by the related Other Servicing Agreement prior to the Distribution Date occurring in the month during which such Periodic Advance is due, the Master Servicer shall make Periodic Advances to the extent provided hereby. In the event WFHM fails to make any required Periodic Advances of principal and interest on a Mortgage Loan as required by the WFHM Servicing Agreement prior to the Distribution Date occurring in the month during which such Periodic Advance is due, the Trustee shall, to the extent required by Section 8.14, make such Periodic Advance to the extent provided hereby, provided that the Trustee has previously received the certificate of the Master Servicer described in the following sentence. The Master Servicer shall certify to the Trustee with respect to any such Distribution Date (i) the amount of Periodic Advances required of WFHM or such Other Servicer, as the case may be, (ii) the amount actually advanced by WFHM or such Other Servicer, (iii) the amount that the Trustee or Master Servicer is required to advance hereunder and (iv) whether the Master Servicer has determined that it reasonably believes that such Periodic Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance. Amounts advanced by the Trustee or Master Servicer shall be deposited in the Certificate Account on the related Distribution Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee will be obligated to make a Periodic Advance that it reasonably believes to be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The Trustee may conclusively rely for any determination to be made by it hereunder upon the determination of the Master Servicer as set forth in its certificate.
Supplemental Agreements Without Consent of Applicable Certificateholders Without limitation of Section 9.01 of the Basic Agreement, under the terms of, and subject to the limitations contained in, Section 9.01 of the Basic Agreement, the Company may (but will not be required to), and the Trustee (subject to Section 9.03 of the Basic Agreement) shall, at the Company's request, at any time and from time to time, (i) enter into one or more agreements supplemental to the Escrow Agreement, the NPA or the Deposit Agreement, for any of the purposes set forth in clauses (1) through (9) of such Section 9.01, and (without limitation of the foregoing or Section 9.01 of the Basic Agreement) (a) clauses (2) and (3) of such Section 9.01 shall also be deemed to include the Company's obligations under (in the case of clause (2)), and the Company's rights and powers conferred by (in the case of clause (3)), the NPA, and (b) references in clauses (4), (6) and (7) of such Section 9.01 to "any Intercreditor Agreement or any Liquidity Facility" shall also be deemed to refer to "the Intercreditor Agreement, the Liquidity Facility, the Escrow Agreement, the NPA or the Deposit Agreement" and (ii) enter into one or more agreements supplemental to this Agreement to provide for the formation of a Class D Trust, the issuance of Class D Certificates, the purchase by the Class D Trust of Equipment Notes and other matters incidental thereto or otherwise contemplated by Section 2.01(b) of the Basic Agreement.
The Certificate Account (a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish the Certificate Account, which shall be entitled “Washington Mutual Mortgage Securities Corp. Certificate Account under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of January 1, 2005, among Washington Mutual Mortgage Securities Corp., as Depositor and Master Servicer, Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as the Trustee, and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Delaware, as the Delaware Trustee, for the benefit of WaMu Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates Series 2005-AR2 Trust created pursuant thereto”.

In addition, not later than the Business Day prior to the Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall deposit into the Certificate Account any Monthly P&I Advances or other payments required to be made by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.02 of this Agreement and any Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds (including amounts paid by the Company in respect of any Purchase Obligation) not previously deposited in the Custodial Accounts for P&I or the Investment Account, and any amounts paid by the Master Servicer in connection with the exercise of its option to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01 or any other purchase of Mortgage Loans permitted by this Agreement.
