This
Pooling Agreement is dated as of January 1, 2006 (the “Agreement”),
among
GREENWICH CAPITAL ACCEPTANCE, INC., a Delaware corporation, as depositor (the
“Depositor”),
GREENWICH CAPITAL FINANCIAL PRODUCTS, INC., a Delaware corporation, as seller
(the “Seller”)
and
U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association, as trustee
(the
“Trustee”).
PRELIMINARY
STATEMENT:
Through
this Agreement, the Depositor intends to cause the issuance and sale of the
HarborView Mortgage Loan Trust 2006-1 Mortgage Loan Pass-Through Certificates,
Series 2006-1 (the “Certificates”)
representing in the aggregate the entire beneficial ownership of the Trust,
the
primary assets of which are the Mortgage Loans (as defined below).
The
Depositor intends to sell the Certificates to be issued hereunder in multiple
classes, which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership
interest in the Trust Fund created hereunder. The Certificates will consist
of
twenty-three classes of certificates, designated as (i) the Class 1-A1A
Certificates, (ii) the Class 1-A1B Certificates, (iii) the Class 2-A1A
Certificates, (iv) the Class 2-A1B Certificates, (v) the Class 2-A1C
Certificates, (vi) the Class X-1 Certificates, (vii) the Class X-2A1B
Certificates, (viii) the Class PO-1 Certificates, (ix) the Class PO-2A1B
Certificates, (x) the Class A-R Certificates, (xi) the Class B-1 Certificates,
(xii) the Class B-2 Certificates, (xiii) the Class B-3 Certificates, (xiv)
the
Class B-4 Certificates, (xv) the Class B-5 Certificates, (xvi) the Class B-6
Certificates, (xvii) the Class B-7 Certificates, (xviii) the Class B-8
Certificates, (xix) the Class B-9 Certificates, (xx) the Class B-10
Certificates, (xxi) the Class B-11 Certificates, (xxii) the Class B-12
Certificates and (xxiii) the Class A-R-II Certificates.
As
provided herein, the Trustee shall elect that the Trust Fund (exclusive of
the
assets held in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund (the “Excluded
Trust Property”))
be
treated for federal income tax purposes as comprising three real estate mortgage
investment conduits (each, a “REMIC”
or,
in
the alternative, the “Lower-Tier
REMIC,”
the
“Middle-Tier
REMIC”
and
the
“Upper-Tier
REMIC”).
Each
Certificate, other than the Class A-R and Class A-R-II Certificates, shall
represent ownership of a regular interest in the Upper-Tier REMIC, as described
herein. In addition, the MTA and LIBOR Certificates represent the right to
receive payments in respect of Basis Risk Shortfalls from the Basis Risk Reserve
Fund as provided in Section 5.07. The owners of the Class X-1 and Class X-2A1B
Certificates beneficially own the Basis Risk Reserve Fund. The Class A-R-II
Certificate represents ownership of the sole class of residual interest in
the
Lower-Tier REMIC, and the Class A-R Certificates represent ownership of the
sole
class of residual interest in the Middle-Tier and the Upper-Tier
REMICs.
The
Lower-Tier REMIC shall hold as assets all property of the Trust Fund, other
than
the Excluded Trust Property and the Lower-Tier REMIC Interests and the
Middle-Tier REMIC Interests. The Middle-Tier REMIC shall hold as assets the
uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests, other than the Class LT-R Interest. Each
such Lower-Tier Interest is hereby designated as a REMIC regular interest.
The
Upper-Tier REMIC shall hold as assets the uncertificated Middle-Tier Interests,
other than the Class MT-R Interest. Each such Middle-Tier Interest is hereby
designated as a REMIC regular interest.

into
account distributions pursuant to priority (i) above for such Distribution
Date,
|
(iii)
|
Third,

interest
rates described above, provided,
however,

and
priority in which principal is distributed pursuant to priorities
(i) and
(ii) above.
|
(iv)
|
Finally,
any remaining amounts to the LT-R
Interest.
|
On
any
Distribution Date, after all distributions of Available Funds, Realized Losses
shall be allocated among the Lower-Tier Interests in the same order of priority
in which principal is distributed among such Lower-Tier Interests pursuant
to
priorities (i) and (ii) above.

Board in the Federal Reserve Statistical Release “Selected Interest Rates
(H.15)”, determined by averaging the monthly yields for the most recently
available twelve months.
(a)
If on
any MTA Determination Date, MTA is no longer available, the Trustee shall select
a new index for the MTA Certificates that is based on comparable information.
When the Trustee selects a new index for the MTA Certificates, the Margin for
the MTA Certificates will increase or decrease by the difference the average
MTA
for the final three years it was in effect and the average of the most recent
three years for the replacement index. The Margin for the MTA Certificates
will
be increased by that difference if the average MTA is greater than the average
replacement index and the Margin for the MTA Certificates will be decreased
by
that difference if the average replacement index is greater than the average
MTA. The Trustee will have no liability for the selection of such alternative
index (and shall be entitled to rely on such advice, if any, as it may deem
appropriate in such selection), except that the Trustee will select a particular
index as the alternative index only if it receives an Opinion of Counsel, which
opinion shall be an expense reimbursed from the Distribution Account, that
the
selection of such index will not cause any REMIC created hereunder to lose
its
classification as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes.

repurchase or to substitute for (or, with respect to any costs and damages
incurred by the Trust Fund in connection with any violation of any
anti-predatory or anti-abusive lending laws, indemnify for) any Mortgage Loan
as
to which a document is missing, a material defect in a constituent document
exists or as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall
constitute the sole remedy against the Originator respecting such omission,
defect or breach available to the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders.
61
(b) Upon
discovery or receipt of written notice of the breach by the Seller of any
representation, warranty or covenant under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
or in Section 2.04 or Section 2.08 hereof in respect of any Mortgage Loan
which materially adversely affects the value of that Mortgage Loan or the
interest therein of the Certificateholders or the Certificate Insurer, the
Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) shall promptly notify the
Seller of such breach and request that the Seller cure such breach within 90
days from the date that the Seller was notified of such breach, and if the
Seller does not cure such breach in all material respects during such period,
the Trustee shall enforce the Seller’s obligation under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement and cause the Seller to repurchase that Mortgage Loan from
the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price on or prior to the Determination Date
following the expiration of such 90 day period (subject to Section 2.03(e)
below); provided,
however,
that, in
connection with any such breach that could not reasonably have been cured within
such 90 day period, if the Seller shall have commenced to cure such breach
within such 90 day period, the Seller shall be permitted to proceed thereafter
diligently and expeditiously to cure the same within the additional period
provided under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement; and, provided
further,
that,
in the case of the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made
by
the Seller in Section 2.04 hereof, the Seller shall be obligated to cure such
breach or purchase the affected Mortgage Loans for the Purchase Price or, if
the
Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property acquired with respect thereto
has been sold, then the Seller shall pay, in lieu of the Purchase Price, any
excess of the Purchase Price over the Net Liquidation Proceeds received upon
such sale.
(c) The
Purchase Price or Repurchase Price (as defined in the Servicing Agreement)
for a
Mortgage Loan purchased or repurchased under this Section 2.03 or such other
amount due shall be deposited in the Distribution Account on or prior to the
next Determination Date after the Originator’s or Seller’s obligation to
repurchase such Mortgage Loan arises. Upon receipt of the related deposit in
the
Distribution Account, the Trustee shall cause the Custodian to release to the
Originator or Seller, as applicable, the related Mortgage File and shall execute
and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without
recourse, representation or warranty, as the Originator or Seller, as
applicable, shall furnish to it and as shall be necessary to vest in the
Originator or Seller, as applicable, any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto
and the Trustee and the Custodian shall have no further responsibility with
regard to such Mortgage File (it being understood that the Trustee and Custodian
shall have no responsibility for determining the sufficiency of such assignment
for its intended purpose). In lieu of repurchasing any such Mortgage Loan as
provided above, the Seller may cause such Mortgage Loan to be removed from
the
Trust Fund (in which case it shall become a Deleted Mortgage Loan) and
substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and
subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d) below. It is understood
and agreed that the obligation of the Seller to cure or to repurchase or to
substitute for (or, with respect to any costs and damages incurred by the Trust
Fund in connection with any violation of any anti-predatory or anti-abusive
lending laws, indemnify for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a document is
missing, a material defect in a constituent document exists or as to which
such
a breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against
the Seller respecting such omission, defect or breach available to the Trustee
on behalf of the Certificateholders.
62
(d) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth above, with respect to any breach by the
Seller of a representation or warranty made by the Seller herein or in the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that materially and adversely affects the
value
of a Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loans or the interest therein of the
Certificateholders or the Certificate Insurer, if the Seller would not be in
breach of such representation or warranty but for a breach by the Originator
of
a representation and warranty made by the Originator in the Servicing Agreement,
then the Originator thereunder, in the manner and to the extent set forth
therein, and not the Seller, shall be required to remedy such breach.
In
addition to such repurchase or substitution obligation, the Seller shall
indemnify the Trust Fund and hold it harmless against any losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related
costs, judgments, and other costs and expenses resulting from any claim, demand,
defense or assertion based on or grounded upon, or resulting from, a breach
of
the Seller’s representations and warranties contained in Section
2.04.
The
Trustee shall enforce the obligations of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement including, without limitation, any obligation of the Seller
to purchase a Mortgage Loan on account of a breach of a representation, warranty
or covenant as described in this Section 2.03(d) and its obligation to indemnify
the Trust Fund with respect to any such breach.
(e) If
pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.03(b), the Seller repurchases or
otherwise removes from the Trust Fund a Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage
Loan, the Seller shall take (or shall cause the Servicer to take), at the
expense of the Seller (with the cooperation of the Depositor and the Trustee),
such actions as are necessary either (i) cause MERS to execute and deliver
an
Assignment of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS
to
the Seller and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on
the
MERS(R)
System
in accordance with MERS’ rules and regulations or (ii) cause MERS to designate
on the MERS(R)
System
the Seller or its designee as the beneficial holder of such Mortgage
Loan.
(f) [Reserved]
(g) Any
substitution of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for Deleted Mortgage Loans
made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) above must be effected prior to the last
Business Day that is within two years after the Closing Date. As to any Deleted
Mortgage Loan for which the Seller substitutes a Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be effected by the Seller delivering
to
the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loan or Loans, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment to the Trustee,
and such other documents and agreements, with all necessary endorsements
thereon, as are required by Section 2.01 hereof, together with an Officers’
Certificate stating that each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies
the definition thereof and specifying the Substitution Adjustment (as described
below), if any, in connection with such substitution; provided,
however,
that, in
the case of any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage
Loan,
the Seller shall provide such documents and take such other action with respect
to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans as are required pursuant to Section
2.01 hereof. The Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall acknowledge receipt
for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and, within five Business
Days thereafter, shall review such documents as specified in Section 2.02 hereof
and deliver to the Servicer, with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loan or Loans, a certification substantially in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit G-2, with any exceptions noted thereon. Within 180 days of the date
of
substitution, the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall deliver to the
Seller a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit G-3 hereto with
respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, with any exceptions
noted thereon. Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution are not part of the Trust Fund
and
will be retained by the Seller. For the month of substitution, distributions
to
Certificateholders will reflect the collections and recoveries in respect of
such Deleted Mortgage Loan in the Due Period preceding the month of substitution
and the Depositor or the Seller, as the case may be, shall thereafter be
entitled to retain all amounts subsequently received in respect of such Deleted
Mortgage Loan. The Seller shall give or cause to be given written notice to
the
Certificateholders that such substitution has taken place, shall amend the
Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan
from
the terms of this Agreement and the substitution of the Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan or Loans and shall deliver a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan
Schedule to the Trustee. Upon such substitution, such Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan or Loans shall constitute part of the Trust Fund and shall be
subject in all respects to the terms of this Agreement and, in the case of
a
substitution effected by the Seller, the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement,
including, in the case of a substitution effected by the Seller all
representations and warranties thereof included in the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement and all representations and warranties thereof set forth in Section
2.04 hereof, in each case as of the date of substitution.
63
For
any
month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Seller shall determine, and
provide written certification to the Trustee and the Seller as to the amount
(each, a “Substitution
Adjustment”),
if
any, by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans
exceeds the aggregate, as to each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan,
of
the principal balance thereof as of the date of substitution, together with
one
month’s interest on such principal balance at the applicable Net Loan Rate. On
or prior to the next Determination Date after the Seller’s obligation to
repurchase the related Deleted Mortgage Loan arises, the Seller will deliver
or
cause to be delivered to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account
an
amount equal to the related Substitution Adjustment, if any, and the Custodian,
on behalf of the Trustee, upon receipt of the related Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan or Loans, shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File
or
Files and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment,
in each case without recourse, as the Seller shall deliver to it and as shall
be
necessary to vest therein any Deleted Mortgage Loan released pursuant
hereto.
In
addition, the Seller shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to the Trustee
an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution (either specifically
or as a class of transactions) will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event. If such
Opinion of Counsel cannot be delivered, then such substitution may only be
effected at such time as the required Opinion of Counsel can be
given.
64
(h) Upon
discovery by the Seller, the Depositor or the Trustee that any Mortgage Loan
does not constitute a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section
860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact shall within two
Business Days give written notice thereof to the other parties. In connection
therewith, the Seller shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations set forth
in Section 2.03(e), substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans
for the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of the earlier of discovery or
receipt of such notice with respect to such affected Mortgage Loan. Any such
repurchase or substitution shall be made in the same manner as set forth in
Section 2.03(b) above, if made by the Seller. The Trustee shall reconvey to
the
Seller the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant hereto in the same manner,
and
on the same terms and conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for
breach of a representation or warranty.
(i) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, to the extent that any fact, condition or event with respect
to a
Mortgage Loan constitutes a breach of both (i) a representation or warranty
of
the Originator under the applicable Purchase Agreement and (ii) a representation
or warranty of the Seller under this Agreement, in each case, which materially
adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of
the
Certificateholders or the Certificate Insurer, the Trustee shall first request
that the Originator cure such breach or repurchase such Mortgage Loan and if
the
Originator fails to cure such breach or repurchase such Mortgage Loan within
60
days of receipt of such request from the Trustee, the Trustee shall then request
that the Seller cure such breach or repurchase such Mortgage Loans.
SECTION
2.04. Representations
and Warranties of the Seller with Respect to the Mortgage Loans.
The
Seller hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Trustee
on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer as of the
Closing Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans:
(i) Each
Mortgage Loan at the time it was made complied in all material respects with
applicable local, state, and federal laws, including, but not limited to, all
applicable predatory and abusive lending laws.
(ii) No
Mortgage Loan is a “High Cost Loan” or “Covered Loan,” as applicable, (as such
terms are defined in the then current Standard & Poor’s LEVELS(R)
Glossary, Appendix E, in effect as of the Closing Date) and
no Mortgage Loan originated on or after October 1, 2002 through March 6, 2003
is
governed by the Georgia Fair Lending Act;
(iii) With
respect to each representation and warranty with respect to any Mortgage Loan
made by the Originator in the Purchase Agreement that is made as of the related
Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), to the best of the Seller’s
knowledge, no event has occurred since the related Closing Date (as defined
in
the Purchase Agreement) that would render such representations and warranties
to
be untrue in any material respect as of the Closing Date; and
65
(iv) Each
Group 1 Mortgage Loan has an original principal balance that conforms to Xxxxxxx
Mac and Xxxxxx Mae guidelines in effect as of the Closing Date.
With
respect to the representations and warranties in this Section 2.04 that are
made
to the best of the Seller’s knowledge or as to which the Seller has no
knowledge, if it is discovered by the Depositor, the Seller, the Certificate
Insurer or the Trustee that the substance of such representation and warranty
is
inaccurate and such inaccuracy materially and adversely affects the value of
the
related Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the Certificateholders or
the
Certificate Insurer then, notwithstanding the Seller’s lack of knowledge with
respect to the substance of such representation and warranty being inaccurate
at
the time the representation or warranty was made, such inaccuracy shall be
deemed a breach of the applicable representation or warranty.
It
is
understood and agreed that the representations and warranties in this Section
2.04 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to the Trustee and shall
inure
to the benefit of the Certificateholders and the Certificate Insurer
notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement or assignment. Upon
discovery by any of the Depositor, the Seller, the Certificate Insurer or the
Trustee of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties
which
materially and adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan or the interests
therein of the Certificateholders or the Certificate Insurer, the party
discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties,
and in no event later than two Business Days from the date of such discovery.
It
is understood and agreed that the obligations of the Seller set forth in Section
2.03(b) hereof to cure, substitute for or repurchase (or, with respect to any
costs and damages incurred by the trust fund in connection with any violation
of
any anti-predatory or anti-abusive lending laws, indemnify for) a related
Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement constitute the
sole remedies available to the Certificateholders or to the Trustee on their
behalf respecting a breach of the representations and warranties incorporated
in
this Section 2.04.

are
no actions or proceedings against the Seller, or pending or, to its knowledge,

incur, assume or suffer to exist any lien on any Mortgage Loan, or any interest
therein; the Seller will notify the Trustee, as assignee of the Depositor and
the Certificate Insurer, of the existence of any lien on any Mortgage Loan

the Seller; provided,
however,
that
nothing in this Section 2.09 shall prevent or be deemed to prohibit the Seller
from suffering to exist upon any of the Mortgage Loans any liens for municipal
or other local taxes and other governmental charges if such taxes or
governmental charges shall not at the time be due and payable or if the Seller
shall currently be contesting the validity thereof in good faith by appropriate
proceedings and shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect
thereto.
ARTICLE
III
ADMINISTRATION
OF
THE MORTGAGE LOANS
SECTION
3.01. Servicing
of the Mortgage Loans.
The
Servicer will service the Mortgage Loans pursuant to the terms of the Servicing
Agreement. The Trustee shall enforce the provisions of the Servicing Agreement
in respect of the Servicer (including any reference to any obligation of the
Servicer in this Agreement that is incorporated into or by which the Servicer
is
bound under the Servicing Agreement).
SECTION
3.02. REMIC-Related
Covenants.
For
as
long as any REMIC created hereunder shall exist, the Trustee shall act in
accordance herewith to assure continuing treatment of such REMIC as a REMIC,
and
the Trustee shall comply with any directions of the Depositor or the Servicer
to
assure such continuing treatment. In particular, the Trustee shall not (a)
sell
or permit the sale of all or any portion of the Mortgage Loans or of any
investment of deposits in an Account unless such sale is as a result of a
repurchase of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement or the Trustee
has
received a REMIC Opinion prepared at the expense of the Trust; and (b) other
than with respect to a substitution pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement or Section 2.04 of this Agreement, as applicable, accept any
contribution to any REMIC after the Startup Day without receipt of a REMIC
Opinion.
70
SECTION
3.03. Release
of Mortgage Files.
(a) Upon
becoming aware of the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt
by
the Servicer of a notification that payment in full has been escrowed in a
manner customary for such purposes for payment to Certificateholders on the
next
Distribution Date, the Servicer will, if required under the Servicing Agreement,
promptly furnish to the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, two copies of
a
certification substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto signed by a
Servicing Officer or in a mutually agreeable electronic format which will,
in
lieu of a signature on its face, originate from a Servicing Officer (which
certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received
in connection with such payment that are required to be deposited in the
Servicing Account maintained by the Servicer the Servicing Agreement have been
or will be so deposited) and shall request that the Trustee or the Custodian
on
behalf of the Trustee deliver to the Servicer the related Mortgage File. Upon
receipt of such certification and request, the Trustee shall cause the Custodian
to promptly release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer and the Trustee
and the Custodian shall have no further responsibility with regard to such
Mortgage File. Upon any such payment in full, the Servicer is authorized, to
give, as agent for the Trustee, as the mortgagee under the Mortgage that secured
the Mortgage Loan, an instrument of satisfaction (or assignment of mortgage
without recourse) regarding the Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage,
which instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall be
delivered to the Person or Persons entitled thereto against receipt therefor
of
such payment, it being understood and agreed that no expenses incurred in
connection with such instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case
may
be, shall be chargeable to the Servicing Account.
(b) From
time
to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage
Loan
and in accordance with the Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall execute such
documents as shall be prepared and furnished to the Trustee by the Servicer
(in
form reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) and as are necessary to the
prosecution of any such proceedings. The Trustee shall cause the Custodian,
upon
the request of the Servicer, and upon delivery to the Trustee (or the Custodian,
on behalf of the Trustee) of two copies of a request for release signed by
a
Servicing Officer substantially in the form of Exhibit F (or in a mutually
agreeable electronic format which will, in lieu of a signature on its face,
originate from a Servicing Officer), release the related Mortgage File held
in
its possession or control to the Servicer. Such trust receipt shall obligate
the
Servicer to return the Mortgage File to the Custodian when the need therefor
by
the Servicer no longer exists unless the Mortgage Loan shall be liquidated,
in
which case, upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer similar to
that
hereinabove specified, the Mortgage File shall be released by the Custodian,
to
the Servicer.
71
SECTION
3.04. REO
Property.
(a) In
the
event the Trust (or the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust), acquires ownership
of
any REO Property in respect of any related Mortgage Loan, the deed or
certificate of sale shall be issued to the Trust, or if required under
applicable law, to the Trustee, or to its nominee, on behalf of the Trust.

SECTION
3.07. Indemnification
by the Trustee.
(a) The
Trustee agrees to indemnify the Depositor, its officers, directors, agents
and
employees for, and to hold them harmless against, any losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs,
judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses (except as otherwise provided
herein with respect to expenses) (including reasonable legal fees and
disbursements of counsel) incurred on their part (i) in connection with, arising
out of, or relating to the Trustee’s failure to file a Form 8-K, Form 10-D or
Form 10-K in accordance with Section 3.05 or any failure by the Trustee to
deliver any information, report or certification, when and as required under
Section 8.01(b) or (e), (ii) by reason of the Trustee’s willful misfeasance, bad
faith or negligence in the performance of such obligations pursuant to Section
3.05, (iii) by reason of the Trustee’s reckless disregard of such obligations
pursuant to Section 3.05 or (iv) any material misstatement or omission made
in
the Trustee Certification; provided,
in each
case, that with respect to any such claim or legal action (or pending or
threatened claim or legal action), such indemnified Person shall have given
the
Trustee written notice thereof promptly after such indemnified Person shall
have
with respect to such claim or legal action knowledge thereof; provided,
however,
that
such agreement by the Trustee to indemnify and hold harmless such Person shall
not include or apply to any such losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
legal fees or expenses or related costs, judgments, or any other costs, fees
or
expenses arising from, caused by or resulting from the actions or omissions
of
any Person other than the Trustee, including without limitation the negligence,
willful misfeasance, bad faith or reckless disregard of duties or obligations
under or pursuant to this Agreement, the Servicing Agreement or other applicable
agreement by the Depositor or the Servicer, including without limitation any
erroneous, inaccurate or incomplete information or certification provided to
the
Trustee by the Depositor or the Servicer in connection with, or any failure
or
delay on the part of the Depositor or the Servicer to provide any information
or
certification necessary to, the Trustee’s performance under Section 3.05. If the
indemnification provided for in this Section 3.07 is unavailable or insufficient
to hold harmless such indemnified Persons, then the Trustee shall contribute
to
the amount paid or payable by such indemnified Persons as a result of the
losses, claims, damages or liabilities of such indemnified Persons in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Depositor
on
the one hand and the Trustee on the other. This indemnity shall survive the
resignation or removal of the Trustee and the termination of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Trustee be liable for
any
consequential, indirect or punitive damages.
74
(b) The
Trust
Fund will indemnify any Indemnified Person for any loss, liability or expense
of
any Indemnified Person not otherwise referred to in Subsection (a)
above.

Investment shall mature not later than such applicable Distribution Date).
Any

the
benefit of the Trustee and shall be subject to its withdrawal or order from
time
to time, and shall not be part of the Trust Fund. The risk of loss of moneys
required to be distributed to the Certificateholders resulting from such
investments shall be borne by and be the risk of the Trustee. The Trustee shall
deposit the amount of any such loss in the Distribution Account immediately
as
realized, but in no event later than the related Distribution Date.
