Section 2.04. Determination of LIBOR.
LIBOR applicable to the calculation of the Pass-Through Rate on
the Class A-I-1, Class A-II, Class M-II and Class B-II Certificates for any
Interest Accrual Period will be determined on each LIBOR Rate Adjustment Date.
On each LIBOR Rate Adjustment Date, LIBOR shall be established by
the Trustee and, as to any Interest Accrual Period, will equal the rate for one
month United States dollar deposits that appears on the Telerate Screen Page
3750 as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such LIBOR Rate Adjustment Date.
"Telerate Screen Page 3750" means the display designated as page 3750 on the
Telerate Service (or such other page as may replace page 3750 on that service
for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates of major banks). If
such rate does not appear on such page (or such other page as may replace that
page on that service, or if such service is no longer offered, LIBOR shall be so
established by use of such other service for displaying LIBOR or comparable
rates as may be selected by the Trustee after consultation with the Master
Servicer), the rate will be the Reference Bank Rate. The "Reference Bank Rate"
will be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in U.S. Dollars
are offered by the reference banks (which shall be any three major banks that
are engaged in transactions in the London interbank market, selected by the
Trustee after consultation with the Master Servicer) as of 11:00 a.m., London
time, on the LIBOR Rate Adjustment Date to prime banks in the London interbank
market for a period of one month in amounts approximately equal to the aggregate
Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-I-1, Class A-II, Class M-II and
Class B-II Certificates then outstanding. The Trustee will request the principal
London office of each of the reference banks to provide a quotation of its rate.
If at least two such quotations are provided, the rate will be the arithmetic
mean of the quotations rounded up to the next multiple of 1/16%. If on such date
fewer than two quotations are provided as requested, the rate will be the
arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by one or more major banks in New York City,
selected by the Trustee after consultation with the Master Servicer, as of 11:00
a.m., New York City time, on such date for loans in U.S. Dollars to leading
European banks for a period of one month in amounts approximately equal to the
aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-I-1, Class A-II, Class
M-II and Class B-II Certificates then outstanding. If no such quotations can be
obtained, the rate will be LIBOR for the prior Distribution Date; provided
however, if, under the priorities described above, LIBOR for a Distribution Date
would be based on LIBOR for the previous
62
Distribution Date for the third consecutive Distribution Date, the Trustee shall
select an alternative comparable index (over which the Trustee has no control),
used for determining one-month Eurodollar lending rates that is calculated and
published (or otherwise made available) by an independent party.
The establishment of LIBOR by the Trustee on any LIBOR Rate
Adjustment Date and the Trustee's subsequent calculation of the Pass-Through
Rate applicable to the Class A-I-1, Class A-II, Class M-II and Class B-II
Certificates for the relevant Interest Accrual Period, in the absence of
manifest error, will be final and binding.
Promptly following each LIBOR Rate Adjustment Date the Trustee
shall supply the Master Servicer with the results of its determination of LIBOR
on such date. Furthermore, the Trustee will supply to any Certificateholder so
requesting by telephone the Pass-Through Rate on the Class A-I-1, Class A-II,
Class M-II and Class B-II Certificates for the current and the immediately
preceding Interest Accrual Period.

or (ii) a delay in the receipt of certain information necessary to prepare the
related assignments, the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the

Trustee of the Mortgage Loans as provided for in this Section 2.01 be construed

be deemed to be a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor to the Trustee
to secure a debt or other obligation of the Depositor. However, in the event
that the Mortgage Loans are held to be property of the Depositor or of
Residential Funding, or if for any reason this Agreement is held or deemed to

this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement within the
meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and the
Uniform Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction; (b) the
conveyances provided for in this Section 2.01 shall be deemed to be (1) a grant

now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to (A) including (i) with respect to
each Cooperative Loan, the related Mortgage Note, Security Agreement, Assignment
of Proprietary Lease, Cooperative Stock Certificate, Cooperative Lease, any

the related Mortgage File, (B) all amounts payable pursuant to the Mortgage

all amounts from time to time held or invested in the Certificate Account or the
Custodial Account, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other
property and (2) an assignment by the Depositor to the Trustee of any security
interest in any and all of Residential Funding's right (including the power to
convey title thereto), title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired, in and to the property described in the foregoing clauses (1)(A), (B)
and (C) granted by Residential Funding to the Depositor pursuant to the
Assignment Agreement; (c) the possession by the Trustee, the Custodian or any
other agent of the Trustee of Mortgage Notes or such other items of property as
constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be
deemed to be "possession by the secured party," or possession by a purchaser or
a person designated by such secured party, for purposes of perfecting the
security interest pursuant to the Minnesota Uniform Commercial Code and the
Uniform
67
Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction (including, without
limitation, Section 9-115, 9-305, 8-102, 8-301, 8-501, 8-503, 8-313 or 8-321
thereof); and (d) notifications to persons holding such property, and
acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property,
shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations
from, financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Trustee
for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law.
The Depositor and, at the Depositor's direction, Residential
Funding and the Trustee shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement,
take such reasonable actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this
Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans and
the other property described above, such security interest would be deemed to be
a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be
maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Depositor shall prepare and deliver to the
Trustee not less than 15 days prior to any filing date and, the Trustee shall
forward for filing, or shall cause to be forwarded for filing, at the expense of
the Depositor, all filings necessary to maintain the effectiveness of any
original filings necessary under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any
jurisdiction to perfect the Trustee's security interest in or lien on the
Mortgage Loans as evidenced by an Officers' Certificate of the Depositor,
including without limitation (x) continuation statements, and (y) such other
statements as may be occasioned by (1) any change of name of Residential
Funding, the Depositor or the Trustee (such preparation and filing shall be at
the expense of the Trustee, if occasioned by a change in the Trustee's name),
(2) any change of location of the place of business or the chief executive
office of Residential Funding or the Depositor or (3) any transfer of any
interest of Residential Funding or the Depositor in any Mortgage Loan.
Section 4.04. Acceptance by Trustee.
The Trustee acknowledges receipt (or, with respect to Mortgage
Loans subject to a Custodial Agreement, and based solely upon a receipt or
certification executed by the Custodian, receipt by the respective Custodian as
the duly appointed agent of the Trustee) of the documents referred to in Section
2.01(b)(I)(i) and Section 2.01(b)(II)(i) above (except that for purposes of such
acknowledgment only, a Mortgage Note may be endorsed in blank and an Assignment
of Mortgage may be in blank) and declares that it, or a Custodian as its agent,
holds and will hold such documents and the other documents constituting a part
of the Mortgage Files delivered to it, or a Custodian as its agent, and the
rights of Residential Funding with respect to any Additional Collateral and the
Surety Bond assigned to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.1(a) of this
Agreement, in trust for the use and benefit of all present and future
Certificateholders. The Trustee or Custodian (such Custodian being so obligated
under a Custodial Agreement) agrees, for the benefit of Certificateholders, to
review each Mortgage File delivered to it pursuant to Section 2.01(b) within 45
days after the Closing Date to ascertain that all required documents
(specifically as set forth in Section 2.01(b)), have been executed and received,
and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage
Loan Schedule, as supplemented, that have been conveyed to it, and to deliver to
the Trustee a certificate (the "Interim Certification") to the effect that all
documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(b) above have been
executed and received and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans
identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, except for any exceptions listed on
Schedule A attached to such Interim Certification. Upon delivery of the Mortgage
Files by the Depositor or the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall acknowledge
receipt (or, with respect to Mortgage Loans subject to a Custodial Agreement,
and based solely upon a receipt or certification executed by the Custodian,
receipt by the respective Custodian as the duly appointed agent of the Trustee)
of the documents referred to in Section 2.01(c) above.
68
If the Custodian, as the Trustee's agent, finds any document or
documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective, the
Trustee shall promptly so notify the Master Servicer and the Depositor;
provided, that if the Mortgage Loan related to such Mortgage File is listed on
Schedule A of the Assignment Agreement, no notification shall be necessary.
Pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Custodial Agreement, the Custodian will notify
the Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee of any such omission or
defect found by it in respect of any Mortgage File held by it. If such omission
or defect materially and adversely affects the interests in the related Mortgage
Loan of the Certificateholders or the Master Servicer shall promptly notify the
related Subservicer of such omission or defect and request that such Subservicer
correct or cure such omission or defect within 60 days from the date the Master
Servicer was notified of such omission or defect and, if such Subservicer does
not correct or cure such omission or defect within such period, that such
Subservicer purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at its Purchase
Price, in either case within 90 days from the date the Master Servicer was
notified of such omission or defect; provided that if the omission or 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; and provided further, that no
cure, substitution or repurchase shall be required if such omission or defect is
in respect of a Mortgage Loan listed on Schedule A of the Assignment Agreement.
The Purchase Price for any such Mortgage Loan shall be deposited or caused to be
deposited by the Master Servicer in the Custodial Account maintained by it
pursuant to Section 3.07 and, upon receipt by the Trustee of written
notification of such deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee or any
Custodian, as the case may be, shall release to the Master Servicer the related
Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments of
transfer or assignment prepared by the Master Servicer, in each case without
recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the Subservicer or its designee, as
the case may be, any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and thereafter such
Mortgage Loan shall not be part of the Trust Fund. In furtherance of the
foregoing, if the Subservicer or Residential Funding that repurchases the
Mortgage Loan is not a member of MERS and the Mortgage is registered on the
MERS(R) System, the Master Servicer, at its own expense and without any right of
reimbursement, shall cause MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of the
Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to such
Subservicer or Residential Funding and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed
from registration on the MERS(R) System in accordance with MERS' rules and
regulations. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Subservicer,
to so cure or purchase any Mortgage Loan as to which a material and adverse
defect in or omission of a constituent document exists shall constitute the sole
remedy respecting such defect or omission available to Certificateholders or the
Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders.
Section 4.06. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of
the Master Servicer and the Depositor.

accordance with the terms of this Agreement;
(iv) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Master
69
Servicer and its performance and compliance with the terms of this
Agreement will not violate the Master Servicer's Certificate of
Incorporation or Bylaws or constitute a material default (or an event
which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a
material default) under, or result in the material breach of, any
material contract, agreement or other instrument to which the Master
Servicer is a party or which may be applicable to the Master Servicer or
any of its assets;
(vi) This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution
and delivery by the Trustee and the Depositor, constitutes a valid,
legal and binding obligation of the Master Servicer, enforceable against
it in accordance with the terms hereof subject to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors' rights generally and to general principles of
equity, regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a
proceeding in equity or at law;
(viii) The Master Servicer is not in default with respect
to any order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand
of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default
might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect the
condition (financial or other) or operations of the Master Servicer or
its properties or might have consequences that would materially
adversely affect its performance hereunder;
(x) No litigation is pending or, to the best of the Master
Servicer's knowledge, threatened against the Master Servicer which would

certificate, statement or report not misleading;
(xvi) The Master Servicer has examined each existing, and

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in
this Section 2.03(a) shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to
the Trustee or any Custodian.
Upon discovery by either the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee or any
70
Custodian of a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in this
Section 2.03(a) which materially and adversely affects the interests of the
Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall
give prompt written notice to the other parties (any Custodian being so
obligated under a Custodial Agreement). Within 90 days of its discovery or its
receipt of notice of such breach, the Master Servicer shall either (i) cure such
breach in all material respects or (ii) to the extent that such breach is with
respect to a Mortgage Loan or a related document, purchase such Mortgage Loan
from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price and in the manner set forth in Section
2.02; provided that if the omission or 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. The obligation of the Master Servicer to cure such breach
or to so purchase such Mortgage Loan shall constitute the sole remedy in respect
of a breach of a representation and warranty set forth in this Section 2.03(a)
available to the Certificateholders or the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders.
(d) The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee
for the benefit of the Certificateholders that as of the Closing Date (or, if
otherwise specified below, as of the date so specified):
(ii) The information set forth in Exhibit F-1 and Exhibit
F-2 hereto with respect to each Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loans, as
the case may be, is true and correct in all material respects at the
respective date or dates which such information is furnished;
(iv) Immediately prior to the conveyance of the Mortgage
Loans to the Trustee, the Depositor had good title to, and was the sole
owner of, each Mortgage Loan free and clear of any pledge, lien,
encumbrance or security interest (other than rights to servicing and
related compensation) and such conveyance validly transfers ownership of
the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee free and clear of any pledge, lien,
encumbrance or security interest; and
(vi) Each Mortgage Loan constitutes a qualified mortgage
under Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code and Treasury Regulations Section
1.860G-2(a)(1).
It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in
this Section 2.03(b) shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to
the Trustee or any Custodian.
Upon discovery by any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee
or any Custodian of a breach of any of the representations and warranties set
forth in this Section 2.03(b) which materially and adversely affects the
interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, the party discovering
such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties (any Custodian
being so obligated under a Custodial Agreement); provided, however, that in the
event of a breach of the representation and warranty set forth in Section
2.03(b)(iii), the party discovering such breach shall give such notice within
five days of discovery. Within 90 days of its discovery or its receipt of notice
of breach, the Depositor shall either (i) cure such breach in all material
respects or (ii) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase
Price and in the manner set forth in Section 2.02; provided that the Depositor
shall have the option to substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or
Loans for such Mortgage Loan if such substitution occurs within two years
following the Closing Date; provided that if the omission or 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,
71
substitution or repurchase must occur within 90 days from the date such breach
was discovered. Any such substitution shall be effected by the Depositor under
the same terms and conditions as provided in Section 2.04 for substitutions by
Residential Funding. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the
Depositor to cure such breach or to so purchase or substitute for any Mortgage
Loan as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute
the sole remedy respecting such breach available to the Certificateholders or
the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Depositor shall not be required to cure breaches or purchase or substitute
for Mortgage Loans as provided in this Section 2.03(b) if the substance of the
breach of a representation set forth above also constitutes fraud in the
origination of the Mortgage Loan.
Section 4.08. Representations and Warranties of Residential
Funding.
The Depositor, as assignee of Residential Funding under the
Assignment Agreement, hereby assigns to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders all of its right, title and interest in respect of the
Assignment Agreement applicable to a Mortgage Loan. Insofar as the Assignment
Agreement relates to the representations and warranties made by Residential
Funding in respect of such Mortgage Loan and any remedies provided thereunder
for any breach of such representations and warranties, such right, title and
interest may be enforced by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders. Upon the discovery by the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Trustee or any Custodian of a breach of any of the representations and
warranties made in the Assignment Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan or
of any Repurchase Event which materially and adversely affects the interests of
the Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach
shall give prompt written notice to the other parties (any Custodian being so
obligated under a Custodial Agreement). The Master Servicer shall promptly
notify Residential Funding of such breach or Repurchase Event and request that
Residential Funding either (i) cure such breach or Repurchase Event in all
material respects within 90 days from the date the Master Servicer was notified
of such breach or Repurchase Event or (ii) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the
Trust Fund at the Purchase Price and in the manner set forth in Section 2.02;
provided that, in the case of a breach or Repurchase Event under the Assignment
Agreement, Residential Funding shall have the option to substitute a Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans for such Mortgage Loan if such substitution
occurs within two years following the Closing Date; provided that if the breach
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 substitution must occur
within 90 days from the date the breach was discovered. In the event that
Residential Funding elects to substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or
Loans for a Deleted Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.04, Residential
Funding shall deliver to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders
with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the original
Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, an Assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form,
and such other documents and agreements as are required by Section 2.01, with
the Mortgage Note endorsed as required by Section 2.01. No substitution will be
made in any calendar month after the Determination Date for such month. Monthly
Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of
substitution shall not be part of the Trust Fund and will be retained by the
Master Servicer and remitted by the Master Servicer to Residential Funding on
the next succeeding Distribution Date. For the month of substitution,
distributions to the Certificateholders will include the Monthly Payment due on
a Deleted Mortgage Loan for such month and thereafter Residential Funding shall
be entitled to retain all amounts received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage
Loan. The Master Servicer shall amend or cause to be amended the Mortgage Loan
Schedule for the benefit of the Certificateholders to reflect the removal of
such Deleted Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan or Loans and the Master Servicer shall deliver the amended
72
Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee. Upon such substitution, the Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall be subject to the terms of this
Agreement and the related Subservicing Agreement in all respects, and
Residential Funding shall be deemed to have made the representations and
warranties with respect to the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan contained in
Section 4 of the Assignment Agreement, as of the date of substitution, and the
covenants, representations and warranties set forth in this Section 2.04, and in
Section 2.03 hereof and in Section 4 of the Assignment Agreement, and the Master
Servicer shall be obligated to repurchase or substitute for any Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan as to which a Repurchase Event (as defined in the
Assignment Agreement) has occurred pursuant to Section 4 of the Assignment
Agreement.
In connection with the substitution of one or more Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master
Servicer will determine the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal
balance of all such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of
substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all such
Deleted Mortgage Loans (in each case after application of the principal portion
of the Monthly Payments due in the month of substitution that are to be
distributed to the Certificateholders in the month of substitution). Residential
Funding shall deposit the amount of such shortfall into the Custodial Account on
the day of substitution, without any reimbursement therefor. Residential Funding
shall give notice in writing to the Trustee of such event, which notice shall be
accompanied by an Officers' Certificate as to the calculation of such shortfall
and by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution will not cause
(a) any federal tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund, including without
limitation, any federal tax imposed on "prohibited transactions" under Section
860F(a)(1) of the Code or on "contributions after the startup date" under
Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code or (b) any portion of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC
III or REMIC IV to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate
is outstanding.
It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the
Residential Funding to cure such breach or purchase (or in the case of
Residential Funding to substitute for) such Mortgage Loan as to which such a
breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy
respecting such breach available to the Certificateholders or the Trustee on
behalf of the Certificateholders. If the Master Servicer is Residential Funding,
then the Trustee shall also have the right to give the notification and require
the purchase or substitution provided for in the second preceding paragraph in
the event of such a breach of a representation or warranty made by Residential
Funding in the Assignment Agreement. In connection with the purchase of or
substitution for any such Mortgage Loan by Residential Funding, the Trustee
shall assign to Residential Funding all of the right, title and interest in
respect of the Assignment Agreement applicable to such Mortgage Loan.
Section 4.10. Execution and Authentication of Certificates;
Conveyance of Uncertificated REMIC Regular Interests.
(a) The Trustee acknowledges the assignment to it of the Mortgage Loans
and the delivery of the Mortgage Files to it, or any Custodian on its behalf,
subject to any exceptions noted, together with the assignment to it of all other
assets included in the Trust Fund, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged.
Concurrently with such delivery and in exchange therefor, the Trustee, pursuant
to the written request of the Depositor executed by an officer of the Depositor,
has executed and caused to be authenticated and delivered to or upon the order
of the Depositor the Certificates in authorized denominations which evidence
ownership of the entire Trust Fund.
(b) The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery
hereof, does hereby
73
transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey in trust to the Trustee without
recourse all the right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to the REMIC
I Regular Interests and the REMIC II Regular Interest for the benefit of the
Holders of the REMIC III Regular Interests and the Holders of the Class R-III
Certificates. The Trustee acknowledges receipt of the REMIC I Regular Interests
and the REMIC II Regular Interest (each of which is uncertificated) and declares
that it holds and will hold the same in trust for the exclusive use and benefit
of the Holders of the REMIC III Regular Interests and Holders of the Class R-III
Certificates. The interests evidenced by the Class R-III Certificates, together
with the REMIC III Regular Interests, constitute the entire beneficial ownership
interest in REMIC III.
(c) The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof,
does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey in trust to the
Trustee without recourse all the right, title and interest of the Depositor in
and to the REMIC III Regular Interests for the benefit of the holders of the
Regular Certificates and the Class R-IV Certificates. The Trustee acknowledges
receipt of the REMIC III Regular Interests (which are uncertificated) and
declares that it holds and will hold the same in trust for the exclusive use and
benefit of the holders of the Regular Certificates and the Class R-IV
Certificates. The interests evidenced by the Class R-IV Certificate, together
with the Regular Certificates, constitute the entire beneficial ownership
interest in REMIC IV.
(d) In exchange for the REMIC III Regular Interests and, concurrently
with the assignment to the Trustee thereof, pursuant to the written request of
the Depositor executed by an officer of the Depositor, the Trustee has executed,
authenticated and delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor, the Regular
Certificates in authorized denominations evidencing (together with the Class
R-IV Certificates) the entire beneficial ownership interest in REMIC IV.

ARTICLE V
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 6.02. Master Servicer to Act as Servicer.
(b) The Master Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage
Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the respective Mortgage
Loans, following such procedures as it would employ in its good faith business
judgment and which are normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing
activities, and shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through
Subservicers as provided in Section 3.02, to do any and all things which it may
deem necessary or desirable in connection with such servicing and
administration. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master
Servicer in its own name or in the name of a Subservicer is hereby authorized
and empowered by the Trustee when the Master Servicer or the Subservicer, as the
case may be, believes it appropriate in its best judgment, to execute and
deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee or any of them, any
and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full
release or discharge, or of consent to assumption or modification in connection
with a proposed conveyance, or of assignment of any Mortgage and Mortgage Note
in connection with the repurchase of a Mortgage Loan and all other comparable
instruments, or with respect to the modification or re-recording of a Mortgage
for the purpose of correcting the Mortgage, the subordination of the lien of the
Mortgage in favor of a public utility company or government agency or unit with
powers of eminent domain, the taking of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the
completion of judicial or non-judicial foreclosure, the conveyance of a
Mortgaged Property to the related insurer, the acquisition of any property
acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, or the management,
marketing and conveyance of any property acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu
of foreclosure with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the
Mortgaged Properties. The Master Servicer further is authorized and empowered by
the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its own
name or in the name of the Subservicer, when the Master Servicer or the
Subservicer, as the case may be, believes it is appropriate in its best judgment
to register any Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System, or cause the removal from
the registration of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System, to execute and
deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders or any of them, any
and all instruments of assignment and other comparable instruments with respect
to such assignment or re-recording of a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as
nominee for the Trustee and its successors and assigns. Any expenses incurred in
connection with the actions described in the preceding sentence shall be borne
by the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 3.16(c), with no right of
reimbursement; provided, that if, as a result of MERS discontinuing or becoming
unable to continue operations in connection with the MERS System, it becomes
necessary to remove any Mortgage Loan from registration on the MERS System and
to arrange for the assignment of the related Mortgages to the Trustee, then any
related expenses shall be reimbursable to the Master Servicer. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, subject to Section 3.07(a), the Master Servicer shall not permit
any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would both constitute a
sale or exchange of such Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Section 1001 of the
Code and any proposed, temporary or final regulations promulgated thereunder
(other than in connection with a proposed conveyance or assumption of such
Mortgage Loan that is treated as a Principal Prepayment in Full pursuant to
Section 3.13(d) hereof) and cause any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC
IV to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code. The Trustee shall
75
furnish the Master Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents
necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to service and administer
the Mortgage Loans. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken by the
Master Servicer or any Subservicer pursuant to such powers of attorney. In
servicing and administering any Nonsubserviced Mortgage Loan, the Master
Servicer shall, to the extent not inconsistent with this Agreement, comply with
the Program Guide as if it were the originator of such Mortgage Loan and had
retained the servicing rights and obligations in respect thereof. In connection
with servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer and any
Affiliate of the Master Servicer (i) may perform services such as appraisals and
brokerage services that are customarily provided by Persons other than servicers
of mortgage loans, and shall be entitled to reasonable compensation therefor in
accordance with Section 3.10 and (ii) may, at its own discretion and on behalf
of the Trustee, obtain credit information in the form of a "credit score" from a
credit repository.
(d) All costs incurred by the Master Servicer or by Subservicers
in effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on the properties
subject to the Mortgage Loans shall not, for the purpose of calculating monthly
distributions to the Certificateholders, be added to the amount owing under the
related Mortgage Loans, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so
permit, and such costs shall be recoverable to the extent permitted by Section
3.10(a)(ii).
(f) The Master Servicer may enter into one or more agreements in
connection with the offering of pass-through certificates evidencing interests
in one or more of the Certificates providing for the payment by the Master
Servicer of amounts received by the Master Servicer as servicing compensation
hereunder and required to cover certain Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the
Mortgage Loans, which payment obligation will thereafter be an obligation of the
Master Servicer hereunder.
(h) To the extent the Master Servicer or any Subservicer receives
payments in respect of Arrearages, such payments shall be retained by the Master
Servicer or Subservicer and shall not be deposited in the Custodial Account. Any
monthly payment received with respect to a Mortgage Loan subject to a repayment
plan (other than a bankruptcy plan) that is not sufficient to satisfy the
Monthly Payment and the monthly Arrearage shall be applied by the Master
Servicer first to the Monthly Payment and then in payment of the monthly
Arrearage. Any monthly payment received with respect to a Mortgage Loan subject
to a repayment plan (other than a bankruptcy plan) that is greater than the
payment required under the repayment plan shall be applied first, in reduction
of any remaining Arrearage with respect to such Mortgage Loan, and then in
reduction of the principal balance thereof as a principal prepayment.
(j) Any payment made by a Mortgagor under a Mortgage Loan subject
to a bankruptcy plan shall be allocated between the Arrearage and the Monthly
Payment as provided in the related bankruptcy plan.
Section 6.04. Subservicing Agreements Between Master
Servicer and Subservicers; Enforcement of Subservicers'
Obligations.
(b) The Master Servicer may continue in effect Subservicing
Agreements entered into by Residential Funding and Subservicers prior to the
execution and delivery of this Agreement, and may enter into new Subservicing
Agreements with Subservicers, for the servicing and administration of all or
some of the Mortgage Loans. Each Subservicer shall be either (i) an
76
institution the accounts of which are insured by the FDIC or (ii) another entity
that engages in the business of originating or servicing mortgage loans, and in
either case shall be authorized to transact business in the state or states in
which the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to
the extent required by applicable law to enable the Subservicer to perform its
obligations hereunder and under the Subservicing Agreement, and in either case
shall be a Xxxxxxx Mac, Xxxxxx Mae or HUD approved mortgage servicer. In
addition, any Subservicer of a Mortgage Loan insured by the FHA must be an
FHA-approved servicer, and any Subservicer of a Mortgage Loan guaranteed by the
VA must be a VA-approved servicer. Each Subservicer of a Mortgage Loan shall be
entitled to receive and retain, as provided in the related Subservicing
Agreement and in Section 3.07, the related Subservicing Fee from payments of
interest received on such Mortgage Loan after payment of all amounts required to
be remitted to the Master Servicer in respect of such Mortgage Loan. For any
Mortgage Loan that is a Nonsubserviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall
be entitled to receive and retain an amount equal to the Subservicing Fee from
payments of interest. Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this
Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer in servicing
the Mortgage Loans include actions taken or to be taken by a Subservicer on
behalf of the Master Servicer. Each Subservicing Agreement will be upon such
terms and conditions as are generally required by, permitted by or consistent
with the Program Guide and are not inconsistent with this Agreement and as the
Master Servicer and the Subservicer have agreed. With the approval of the Master
Servicer, a Subservicer may delegate its servicing obligations to third- party
servicers, but such Subservicer will remain obligated under the related
Subservicing Agreement. The Master Servicer and a Subservicer may enter into
amendments thereto or a different form of Subservicing Agreement, and the form
referred to or included in the Program Guide is merely provided for information
and shall not be deemed to limit in any respect the discretion of the Master
Servicer to modify or enter into different Subservicing Agreements; provided,
however, that any such amendments or different forms shall be consistent with
and not violate the provisions of either this Agreement or the Program Guide in
a manner which would materially and adversely affect the interests of the
Certificateholders.
(d) As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Master
Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall use
its best reasonable efforts to enforce the obligations of each Subservicer under
the related Subservicing Agreement, to the extent that the non- performance of
any such obligation would have a material and adverse effect on a Mortgage Loan,
including, without limitation, the obligation to purchase a Mortgage Loan on
account of defective documentation, as described in Section 2.02, or on account
of a breach of a representation or warranty, as described in Section 2.04. Such
enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims,
termination of Subservicing Agreements, as appropriate, and the pursuit of other
appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent
and at such time as the Master Servicer would employ in its good faith business
judgment and which are normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing
activities. The Master Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its
own expense, and shall be reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general recovery
resulting from such enforcement to the extent, if any, that such recovery
exceeds all amounts due in respect of the related Mortgage Loan or (ii) from a
specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys fees against the party against
whom such enforcement is directed.
Section 6.06. Successor Subservicers.
----------------------
The Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate any
Subservicing Agreement that may exist in accordance with the terms and
conditions of such Subservicing Agreement and without any limitation by virtue
of this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event of termination of any
77
Subservicing Agreement by the Master Servicer or the Subservicer, the Master
Servicer shall either act as servicer of the related Mortgage Loan or enter into
a Subservicing Agreement with a successor Subservicer which will be bound by the
terms of the related Subservicing Agreement. If the Master Servicer or any
Affiliate of Residential Funding acts as servicer, it will not assume liability
for the representations and warranties of the Subservicer which it replaces. If
the Master Servicer enters into a Subservicing Agreement with a successor
Subservicer, the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to have the
successor Subservicer assume liability for the representations and warranties
made by the terminated Subservicer in respect of the related Mortgage Loans and,
in the event of any such assumption by the successor Subservicer, the Master
Servicer may, in the exercise of its business judgment, release the terminated
Subservicer from liability for such representations and warranties.
Section 6.08. Liability of the Master Servicer.
Notwithstanding any Subservicing Agreement, any of the provisions
of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Master
Servicer or a Subservicer or reference to actions taken through a Subservicer or
otherwise, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and liable to the Trustee
and Certificateholders for the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans
in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01 without diminution of such
obligation or liability by virtue of such Subservicing Agreements or
arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Subservicer or the
Depositor and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if
the Master Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans.
The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a
Subservicer for indemnification of the Master Servicer and nothing contained in
this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.
Section 6.10. 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
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.
Section 6.12. Assumption or Termination of Subservicing
Agreements by Trustee.
(b) In the event the Master Servicer shall for any reason no
longer be the master servicer (including by reason of an Event of Default), the
Trustee, its designee or its successor shall thereupon assume all of the rights
and obligations of the Master Servicer under each Subservicing Agreement that
may have been entered into. The Trustee, its designee or the successor servicer
for the Trustee shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Master Servicer's
interest therein and to have replaced the Master Servicer as a party to the
Subservicing Agreement to the same extent as if the Subservicing Agreement had
been assigned to the assuming party except that the Master Servicer shall not
thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under the Subservicing
Agreement.
78
(d) The Master Servicer shall, upon request of the Trustee but at
the expense of the Master Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all documents
and records relating to each Subservicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans then
being serviced and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it and
otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of
each Subservicing Agreement to the assuming party.
Section 6.14. Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments;
Deposits to Custodial Account.
(b) 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. 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 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), 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.
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 re-amortized such that the
Monthly Payment is recalculated as an amount that will fully amortize the
remaining Stated Principal Amount thereof by the original Maturity Date based on
the original Mortgage Rate; provided, that such reamortization shall not be
permitted if it would constitute a reissuance of the Mortgage Loan for federal
income tax purposes.
(d) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Custodial
Account in which the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited on a
daily basis, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the following
payments and collections remitted by Subservicers or received by it in respect
of the Mortgage Loans subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of
principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date):
79
(ii) All payments on account of principal, including
Principal Prepayments made by Mortgagors on the Mortgage Loans and the
principal component of any Subservicer Advance or of any REO Proceeds
received in connection with an REO Property for which an REO Disposition
has occurred (other than any payments received in respect of any
Arrearages);
(iv) All payments on account of interest at the Adjusted
Mortgage Rate on the Mortgage Loans, including the interest component of
any Subservicer Advance or of any REO Proceeds received in connection
with an REO Property for which an REO Disposition has occurred;
(vi) Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds (net of any related
expenses of the Subservicer);
(viii) All proceeds of any Mortgage Loans purchased
pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.03, 2.04 or 4.07 and all amounts required to
be deposited in connection with the substitution of a Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.04; and
(x) Any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.07(c)
or 3.21; and
(xii) Any amounts realized by MLCC and received by the Master Servicer
in respect of any Additional Collateral.
The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Custodial Account shall be
exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, payments on the Mortgage Loans which are not part of the Trust
Fund (consisting of payments in respect of principal and interest on the
Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date) and payments or collections in
the nature of prepayment charges or late payment charges or assumption fees may
but need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Custodial Account. In
the event any amount not required to be deposited in the Custodial Account is so
deposited, the Master Servicer may at any time withdraw such amount from the
Custodial Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The
Custodial Account may contain funds that belong to one or more trust funds
created for mortgage pass-through certificates of other series and may contain
other funds respecting payments on mortgage loans belonging to the Master
Servicer or serviced or master serviced by it on behalf of others.
Notwithstanding such commingling of funds, the Master Servicer shall keep
records that accurately reflect the funds on deposit in the Custodial Account
that have been identified by it as being attributable to the Mortgage Loans.
With respect to Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, REO
Proceeds and the proceeds of the purchase of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to
Sections 2.02, 2.03, 2.04 and 4.07 received in any calendar month, the Master
Servicer may elect to treat such amounts as included in the related Group I or
Group II Available Distribution Amount for the Distribution Date in the month of
receipt, but is not obligated to do so. If the Master Servicer so elects, such
amounts will be deemed to have been received (and any related Realized Loss
shall be deemed to have occurred) on the last day of the month prior to the
receipt thereof.
(f) The Master Servicer shall use its best efforts to cause the
institution
80
maintaining the Custodial Account to invest the funds in the Custodial Account
attributable to the Mortgage Loans in Permitted Investments which shall mature
not later than the Certificate Account Deposit Date next following the date of
such investment (with the exception of the Amount Held for Future Distribution)
and which shall not be sold or disposed of prior to their maturities. All income
and gain realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit of the
Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation and shall be subject to its
withdrawal or order from time to time. The amount of any losses incurred in
respect of any such investments attributable to the investment of amounts in
respect of the Mortgage Loans shall be deposited in the Custodial Account by the
Master Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized.
(h) The Master Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee and the
Depositor of any change in the location of the Custodial Account and the
location of the Certificate Account prior to the use thereof.
Section 6.16. Subservicing Accounts; Servicing Accounts.
(b) In those cases where a Subservicer is servicing a Mortgage
Loan pursuant to a Subservicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall cause the
Subservicer, pursuant to the Subservicing Agreement, to establish and maintain
one or more Subservicing Accounts which shall be an Eligible Account or, if such
account is not an Eligible Account, shall generally satisfy the requirements of
the Program Guide and be otherwise acceptable to the Master Servicer and each
Rating Agency. The Subservicer will be required thereby to deposit into the
Subservicing Account on a daily basis all proceeds of Mortgage Loans received by
the Subservicer, less its Subservicing Fees and unreimbursed advances and
expenses, to the extent permitted by the Subservicing Agreement. If the
Subservicing Account is not an Eligible Account, the Master Servicer shall be
deemed to have received such monies upon receipt thereof by the Subservicer. The
Subservicer shall not be required to deposit in the Subservicing Account
payments or collections in the nature of prepayment charges or late charges or
assumption fees. On or before the date specified in the Program Guide, but in no
event later than the Determination Date, the Master Servicer shall cause the
Subservicer, pursuant to the Subservicing Agreement, to remit to the Master
Servicer for deposit in the Custodial Account all funds held in the Subservicing
Account with respect to each Mortgage Loan serviced by such Subservicer that are
required to be remitted to the Master Servicer. The Subservicer will also be
required, pursuant to the Subservicing Agreement, to advance on such scheduled
date of remittance amounts equal to any scheduled monthly installments of
principal and interest less its Subservicing Fees on any Mortgage Loans for
which payment was not received by the Subservicer. This obligation to advance
with respect to each Mortgage Loan will continue up to and including the first
of the month following the date on which the related Mortgaged Property is sold
at a foreclosure sale or is acquired by the Trust Fund by deed in lieu of
foreclosure or otherwise. All such advances received by the Master Servicer
shall be deposited promptly by it in the Custodial Account.
(d) The Subservicer may also be required, pursuant to the
Subservicing Agreement, to remit to the Master Servicer for deposit in the
Custodial Account interest at the Adjusted Mortgage Rate (or Modified Net
Mortgage Rate plus the rate per annum at which the Servicing Fee accrues in the
case of a Modified Mortgage Loan) on any Curtailment received by such
Subservicer in respect of a Mortgage Loan from the related Mortgagor during any
month that is to be applied by the Subservicer to reduce the unpaid principal
balance of the related Mortgage Loan as of the first day of such month, from the
date of application of such Curtailment to the first day of the following month.
Any amounts paid by a Subservicer pursuant to the preceding sentence
81
shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as additional servicing
compensation and shall be subject to its withdrawal or order from time to time
pursuant to Sections 3.10(a)(iv) and (v).
(f) In addition to the Custodial Account and the Certificate
Account, the Master Servicer shall for any Nonsubserviced Mortgage Loan, and
shall cause the Subservicers for Subserviced Mortgage Loans to, establish and
maintain one or more Servicing Accounts and deposit and retain therein all
collections from the Mortgagors (or advances from Subservicers) for the payment
of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums, Primary Insurance Policy
premiums, if applicable, or comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors.
Each Servicing Account shall satisfy the requirements for a Subservicing Account
and, to the extent permitted by the Program Guide or as is otherwise acceptable
to the Master Servicer, may also function as a Subservicing Account. Withdrawals
of amounts related to the Mortgage Loans from the Servicing Accounts may be made
only to effect timely payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums,
Primary Insurance Policy premiums, if applicable, or comparable items, to
reimburse the Master Servicer or Subservicer out of related collections for any
payments made pursuant to Sections 3.11 (with respect to the Primary Insurance
Policy) and 3.12(a) (with respect to hazard insurance), to refund to any
Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages, to pay interest, if
required, to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Account or to clear and
terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of this Agreement in
accordance with Section 9.01 or in accordance with the Program Guide. As part of
its servicing duties, the Master Servicer shall, and the Subservicers will,
pursuant to the Subservicing Agreements, be required to pay to the Mortgagors
interest on funds in this account to the extent required by law.
(h) The Master Servicer shall advance the payments referred to in
the preceding subsection that are not timely paid by the Mortgagors or advanced
by the Subservicers on the date when the tax, premium or other cost for which
such payment is intended is due, but the Master Servicer shall be required so to
advance only to the extent that such advances, in the good faith judgment of the
Master Servicer, will be recoverable by the Master Servicer out of Insurance
Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or otherwise.
Section 6.18. Access to Certain Documentation and
Information Regarding the Mortgage Loans.
In the event that compliance with this Section 3.09 shall make
any Class of Certificates legal for investment by federally insured savings and
loan associations, the Master Servicer shall provide, or cause the Subservicers
to provide, to the Trustee, the Office of Thrift Supervision or the FDIC and the
supervisory agents and examiners thereof access to the documentation regarding
the Mortgage Loans required by applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift
Supervision, such access being afforded without charge but only upon reasonable
request and during normal business hours at the offices designated by the Master
Servicer. The Master Servicer shall permit such representatives to photocopy any
such documentation and shall provide equipment for that purpose at a charge
reasonably approximating the cost of such photocopying to the Master Servicer.
Section 6.20. Permitted Withdrawals from the Custodial Account.
82
(b) The Master Servicer may, from time to time as provided
herein, make withdrawals from the Custodial Account of amounts on deposit
therein pursuant to Section 3.07 that are attributable to the Mortgage Loans for
the following purposes:
(ii) to make deposits into the Certificate Account in the amounts and
in the manner provided for in Section 4.01;
(iv) to reimburse itself or the related Subservicer for
previously unreimbursed advances or expenses made pursuant to Sections
3.01, 3.08, 3.12(a), 3.14 and 4.04 or otherwise reimbursable pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement, such withdrawal right being limited to
amounts received on particular Mortgage Loans (including, for this
purpose, REO Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds and
proceeds from the purchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.02,
2.03, 2.04 or 4.07) which represent (A) Late Collections of Monthly
Payments for which any such advance was made in the case of Subservicer
Advances or Advances pursuant to Section 4.04 and (B) late recoveries of
the payments for which such advances were made in the case of Servicing
Advances;
(vi) to pay to itself or the related Subservicer (if not
previously retained by such Subservicer) out of each payment received by
the Master Servicer on account of interest on a Mortgage Loan as
contemplated by Sections 3.14 and 3.16, an amount equal to that
remaining portion of any such payment as to interest (but not in excess
of the Servicing Fee and the Subservicing Fee, if not previously
retained) which, when deducted, will result in the remaining amount of
such interest being interest at a rate per annum equal to the Net
Mortgage Rate (or Modified Net Mortgage Rate in the case of a Modified
Mortgage Loan) on the amount specified in the amortization schedule of
the related Mortgage Loan as the principal balance thereof at the
beginning of the period respecting which such interest was paid after
giving effect to any previous Curtailments;
(viii) to pay to itself as additional servicing
compensation any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited
in the Custodial Account that it is entitled to withdraw pursuant to
Section 3.07(c);
(x) to pay to itself as additional servicing compensation any
Foreclosure Profits, and any amounts remitted by Subservicers as interest
in respect of Curtailments pursuant to Section 3.08(b);
(xii) to pay to itself, a Subservicer, Residential
Funding, the Depositor or any other appropriate Person, as the case may
be, with respect to each Mortgage Loan or property acquired in respect
thereof that has been purchased or otherwise transferred pursuant to
Section 2.02, 2.03, 2.04, 3.23, 4.07 or 9.01, all amounts received
thereon and not required to be distributed to Certificateholders as of
the date on which the related Stated Principal Balance or Purchase Price
is determined;
(xiv) to reimburse itself or the related Subservicer for
any Nonrecoverable Advance or Advances in the manner and to the extent
provided in subsection (c) below, any Advance made in connection with a
modification of a Mortgage Loan that is in default or, in the judgment
of the Master Servicer, default is reasonably foreseeable pursuant to
Section 3.07(a), to the extent the amount of the Advance has been added
to the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan;
83
(xvi) to reimburse itself or the Depositor for expenses incurred
by and reimbursable to it or the Depositor pursuant to Section
3.14(c), 6.03, 10.01 or otherwise;
(xviii) to reimburse itself for amounts expended by it (a)
pursuant to Section 3.14 in good faith in connection with the
restoration of property damaged by an Uninsured Cause, and (b) in
connection with the liquidation of a Mortgage Loan or disposition of an
REO Property to the extent not otherwise reimbursed pursuant to clause
(ii) or (viii) above; and
(xx) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Custodial
Account that was not required to be deposited therein pursuant to
Section 3.07, including any payoff fees or penalties or any other
additional amounts payable to the Master Servicer or Subservicer
pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Note.
(d) Since, in connection with withdrawals pursuant to clauses
(ii), (iii), (v) and (vi), the Master Servicer's entitlement thereto is limited
to collections or other recoveries on the related Mortgage Loan, the Master
Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by
Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the
Custodial Account pursuant to such clauses.
(f) The Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimburse itself or
the related Subservicer for any advance made in respect of a Mortgage Loan that
the Master Servicer determines to be a Nonrecoverable Advance by withdrawal from
the Custodial Account of amounts on deposit therein attributable to the Mortgage
Loans on any Certificate Account Deposit Date succeeding the date of such
determination. Such right of reimbursement in respect of a Nonrecoverable
Advance on any such Certificate Account Deposit Date shall be limited to an
amount not exceeding the portion of such advance previously paid to
Certificateholders (and not theretofore reimbursed to the Master Servicer or the
related Subservicer).
Section 6.22. Maintenance of Primary Insurance Coverage.
(b) The Master Servicer shall not take, or permit any Subservicer
to take, any action which would result in noncoverage under any applicable
Primary Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Master
Servicer or Subservicer, would have been covered thereunder. To the extent
coverage is available, the Master Servicer shall keep or cause to be kept in
full force and effect each such Primary Insurance Policy until the principal
balance of the related Mortgage Loan secured by a Mortgaged Property is reduced
to 80% or less of the Appraised Value at origination in the case of such a
Mortgage Loan having a Loan-to-Value Ratio at origination in excess of 80%,
provided that such Primary Insurance Policy was in place as of the Cut-off Date
and the Master Servicer had knowledge of such Primary Insurance Policy. The
Master Servicer shall not cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary Insurance
Policy applicable to a Nonsubserviced Mortgage Loan, or consent to any
Subservicer canceling or refusing to renew any such Primary Insurance Policy
applicable to a Mortgage Loan subserviced by it, that is in effect at the date
of the initial issuance of the Certificates and is required to be kept in force
hereunder unless the replacement Primary Insurance Policy for such canceled or
non- renewed policy is maintained with an insurer whose claims-paying ability is
acceptable to each Rating Agency for mortgage pass- through certificates having
a rating equal to or better than the lower of the then-current rating or the
rating assigned to the Certificates as of the Closing Date by such Rating
Agency.
84
(d) In connection with its activities as administrator and
servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to present or to
cause the related Subservicer to present, on behalf of the Master Servicer, the
Subservicer, if any, the Trustee and Certificateholders, claims to the insurer
under any Primary Insurance Policies, in a timely manner in accordance with such
policies, and, in this regard, to take or cause to be taken such reasonable
action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Insurance
Policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Pursuant to Section 3.07, any
Insurance Proceeds collected by or remitted to the Master Servicer under any
Primary Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject
to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.10.
Section 6.24. Maintenance of Fire Insurance and Omissions
and Fidelity Coverage.
(b) The Master Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each
Mortgage Loan (other than a Cooperative Loan) fire insurance with extended
coverage in an amount which is equal to the lesser of the principal balance
owing on such Mortgage Loan (together with the principal balance of any mortgage
loan secured by a lien that is senior to the Mortgage Loan) or 100 percent of
the insurable value of the improvements; provided, however, that such coverage
may not be less than the minimum amount required to fully compensate for any
loss or damage on a replacement cost basis. To the extent it may do so without
breaching the related Subservicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall replace
any Subservicer that does not cause such insurance, to the extent it is
available, to be maintained. The Master Servicer shall also cause to be
maintained on property acquired upon foreclosure, or deed in lieu of
foreclosure, of any Mortgage Loan (other than a Cooperative Loan), fire
insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the
amount necessary to avoid the application of any co-insurance clause contained
in the related hazard insurance policy. Pursuant to Section 3.07, any amounts
collected by the Master Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to
be applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or
property thus acquired or amounts released to the Mortgagor in accordance with
the Master Servicer's normal servicing procedures) shall be deposited in the
Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.10. Any cost
incurred by the Master Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for
the purpose of calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added
to the amount owing under the Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of
the Mortgage Loan so permit. Such costs shall be recoverable by the Master
Servicer out of related late payments by the Mortgagor or out of Insurance
Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds to the extent permitted by Section 3.10. It is
understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be
required of any Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in respect of a
Mortgage Loan other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as
shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance.
Whenever the improvements securing a Mortgage Loan (other than a Cooperative
Loan) are located at the time of origination of such Mortgage Loan in a
federally designated special flood hazard area, the Master Servicer shall cause
flood insurance (to the extent available) to be maintained in respect thereof.
Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount
required to compensate for any loss or damage to the Mortgaged Property on a
replacement cost basis and (ii) the maximum amount of such insurance available
for the related Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance program
(assuming that the area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is
participating in such program).
In the event that the Master Servicer shall obtain and maintain a
blanket fire insurance policy with extended coverage insuring against hazard
losses on all of the Mortgage Loans, it shall
85
conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in the
first sentence of this Section 3.12(a), it being understood and agreed that such
policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer shall,
in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged
Property a policy complying with the first sentence of this Section 3.12(a) and
there shall have been a loss which would have been covered by such policy,
deposit in the Certificate Account the amount not otherwise payable under the
blanket policy because of such deductible clause. Any such deposit by the Master
Servicer shall be made on the Certificate Account Deposit Date next preceding
the Distribution Date which occurs in the month following the month in which
payments under any such policy would have been deposited in the Custodial
Account. In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of the
Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to present, on behalf of itself, the
Trustee and Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy.
(d) The Master Servicer shall obtain and maintain at its own
expense and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement
a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy covering
the Master Servicer's officers and employees and other persons acting on behalf
of the Master Servicer in connection with its activities under this Agreement.
The amount of coverage shall be at least equal to the coverage that would be
required by Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac, whichever is greater, with respect to the
Master Servicer if the Master Servicer were servicing and administering the
Mortgage Loans for Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac. In the event that any such bond or
policy ceases to be in effect, the Master Servicer shall obtain a comparable
replacement bond or policy from an issuer or insurer, as the case may be,
meeting the requirements, if any, of the Program Guide and acceptable to the
Depositor. Coverage of the Master Servicer under a policy or bond obtained by an
Affiliate of the Master Servicer and providing the coverage required by this
Section 3.12(b) shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 3.12(b).
Section 6.26. Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption and
Modification Agreements; Certain Assignments.
(b) When any Mortgaged Property is conveyed by the Mortgagor, the
Master Servicer or Subservicer, to the extent it has knowledge of such
conveyance, shall enforce any due-on- sale clause contained in any Mortgage Note
or Mortgage, to the extent permitted under applicable law and governmental
regulations, but only to the extent that such enforcement will not adversely
affect or jeopardize coverage under any Required Insurance Policy.
Notwithstanding the foregoing:
(ii) the Master Servicer shall not be deemed to be in
default under this Section 3.13(a) by reason of any transfer or
assumption which the Master Servicer is restricted by law from
preventing; and
(iv) if the Master Servicer determines that it is
reasonably likely that any Mortgagor will bring, or if any Mortgagor
does bring, legal action to declare invalid or otherwise avoid
enforcement of a due-on-sale clause contained in any Mortgage Note or
Mortgage, the Master Servicer shall not be required to enforce the
due-on-sale clause or to contest such action.
(d) Subject to the Master Servicer's duty to enforce any
due-on-sale clause to the extent set forth in Section 3.13(a), in any case in
which a Mortgaged Property is to be conveyed to a Person by a Mortgagor, and
such Person is to enter into an assumption or modification
86
agreement or supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage which requires the
signature of the Trustee, or if an instrument of release signed by the Trustee
is required releasing the Mortgagor from liability on the Mortgage Loan, the
Master Servicer is authorized, subject to the requirements of the sentence next
following, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, the assumption
agreement with the Person to whom the Mortgaged Property is to be conveyed and
such modification agreement or supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or
other instruments as are reasonable or necessary to carry out the terms of the
Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise to comply with any applicable laws
regarding assumptions or the transfer of the Mortgaged Property to such Person;
provided, however, none of such terms and requirements shall both constitute a
"significant modification" effecting an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage
Loan under the Code (or final, temporary or proposed Treasury regulations
promulgated thereunder) and cause any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC
IV to fail to qualify as REMICs under the Code or the imposition of any tax on
"prohibited transactions" or "contributions" after the startup date under the
REMIC Provisions. The Master Servicer shall execute and deliver such documents
only if it reasonably determines that (i) its execution and delivery thereof
will not conflict with or violate any terms of this Agreement or cause the
unpaid balance and interest on the Mortgage Loan to be uncollectible in whole or
in part, (ii) any required consents of insurers under any Required Insurance
Policies have been obtained and (iii) subsequent to the closing of the
transaction involving the assumption or transfer (A) the Mortgage Loan will
continue to be secured by a first mortgage lien (or junior lien of the same
priority in relation to any senior mortgage loan, with respect to any Mortgage
Loan secured by a junior Mortgage) pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage, (B)
such transaction will not adversely affect the coverage under any Required
Insurance Policies, (C) the Mortgage Loan will fully amortize over the remaining
term thereof, (D) no material term of the Mortgage Loan (including the interest
rate on the Mortgage Loan) will be altered nor will the term of the Mortgage
Loan be changed and (E) if the seller/transferor of the Mortgaged Property is to
be released from liability on the Mortgage Loan, the buyer/transferee of the
Mortgaged Property would be qualified to assume the Mortgage Loan based on
generally comparable credit quality and such release will not (based on the
Master Servicer's or Subservicer's good faith determination) adversely affect
the collectability of the Mortgage Loan. Upon receipt of appropriate
instructions from the Master Servicer in accordance with the foregoing, the
Trustee shall execute any necessary instruments for such assumption or
substitution of liability as directed by the Master Servicer. Upon the closing
of the transactions contemplated by such documents, the Master Servicer shall
cause the originals or true and correct copies of the assumption agreement, the
release (if any), or the modification or supplement to the Mortgage Note or
Mortgage to be delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian and deposited with the
Mortgage File for such Mortgage Loan. Any fee collected by the Master Servicer
or such related Subservicer for entering into an assumption or substitution of
liability agreement will be retained by the Master Servicer or such Subservicer
as additional servicing compensation.
(f) The Master Servicer or the related Subservicer, as the case
may be, shall be entitled to approve a request from a Mortgagor for a partial
release of the related Mortgaged Property, the granting of an easement thereon
in favor of another Person, any alteration or demolition of the related
Mortgaged Property or other similar matters if it has determined, exercising its
good faith business judgment in the same manner as it would if it were the owner
of the related Mortgage Loan, that the security for, and the timely and full
collectability of, such Mortgage Loan would not be adversely affected thereby
and that each of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC IV would continue to
qualify as a REMIC under the Code as a result thereof and that no tax on
"prohibited transactions" or "contributions" after the startup day would be
imposed on any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC IV as a result thereof.
Any fee collected by the Master Servicer or the related Subservicer for
processing such a request will be retained by the Master Servicer or such
87
Subservicer as additional servicing compensation.
(h) Subject to any other applicable terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Trustee and Master Servicer shall be entitled to approve an
assignment in lieu of satisfaction with respect to any Mortgage Loan, provided
the obligee with respect to such Mortgage Loan following such proposed
assignment provides the Trustee and Master Servicer with a "Lender Certification
for Assignment of Mortgage Loan" in the form attached hereto as Exhibit M, in
form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and Master Servicer, providing
the following: (i) that the Mortgage Loan is secured by Mortgaged Property
located in a jurisdiction in which an assignment in lieu of satisfaction is
required to preserve lien priority, minimize or avoid mortgage recording taxes
or otherwise comply with, or facilitate a refinancing under, the laws of such
jurisdiction; (ii) that the substance of the assignment is, and is intended to
be, a refinancing of such Mortgage Loan and that the form of the transaction is
solely to comply with, or facilitate the transaction under, such local laws;
(iii) that the Mortgage Loan following the proposed assignment will have a rate
of interest at least 0.25 percent below or above the rate of interest on such
Mortgage Loan prior to such proposed assignment; and (iv) that such assignment
is at the request of the borrower under the related Mortgage Loan. Upon approval
of an assignment in lieu of satisfaction with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the
Master Servicer shall receive cash in an amount equal to the unpaid principal
balance of and accrued interest on such Mortgage Loan and the Master Servicer
shall treat such amount as a Principal Prepayment in Full with respect to such
Mortgage Loan for all purposes hereof.
Section 6.28. Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
(b) The Master Servicer shall foreclose upon or otherwise
comparably convert (which may include an REO Acquisition) the ownership of
properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in
default (including a default with respect to a required payment of an Arrearage)
and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of
delinquent payments pursuant to Section 3.07. Alternatively, the Master Servicer
may take other actions in respect of a defaulted Mortgage Loan, which may
include (i) accepting a short sale (a payoff of the Mortgage Loan for an amount
less than the total amount contractually owed in order to facilitate a sale of
the Mortgaged Property by the Mortgagor) or permitting a short refinancing (a
payoff of the Mortgage Loan for an amount less than the total amount
contractually owed in order to facilitate refinancing transactions by the
Mortgagor not involving a sale of the Mortgaged Property), (ii) arranging for a
repayment plan or (iii) agreeing to a modification in accordance with Section
3.07. In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion or action, the
Master Servicer shall, consistent with Section 3.11, follow such practices and
procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable, as shall be normal and usual
in its general mortgage servicing activities and as shall be required or
permitted by the Program Guide; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be
liable in any respect hereunder if the Master Servicer is acting in connection
with any such foreclosure or other conversion or action in a manner that is
consistent with the provisions of this Agreement. The Master Servicer, however,
shall not be required to expend its own funds or incur other reimbursable
charges in connection with any foreclosure, or attempted foreclosure which is
not completed, or towards the correction of any default on a related senior
mortgage loan, or towards the restoration of any property unless it shall
determine (i) that such restoration and/or foreclosure will increase the
proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan to Holders of Certificates of one
or more Classes after reimbursement to itself for such expenses or charges and
(ii) that such expenses and charges will be recoverable to it through
Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, or REO Proceeds (respecting which it
shall have priority for purposes of withdrawals from the Custodial Account
pursuant to Section 3.10, whether or not such expenses and charges are actually
recoverable from related
88
Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or REO Proceeds). In the event of such
a determination by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.14(a), the
Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of its funds so expended
pursuant to Section 3.10.
In addition to the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall use its
best reasonable efforts to realize upon any Additional Collateral for such of
the Additional Collateral Loans as come into and continue in default and as to
which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent
payments pursuant to Section 3.07; provided that the Master Servicer shall not,
on behalf of the Trustee, obtain title to any such Additional Collateral as a
result of or in lieu of the disposition thereof or otherwise; and provided
further that (i) the Master Servicer shall not proceed with respect to such
Additional Collateral in any manner that would impair the ability to recover
against the related Mortgaged Property, and (ii) the Master Servicer shall
proceed with any REO Acquisition in a manner that preserves the ability to apply
the proceeds of such Additional Collateral against amounts owed under the
defaulted Mortgage Loan. Any proceeds realized from such Additional Collateral
(other than amounts to be released to the Mortgagor or the related guarantor in
accordance with procedures that the Master Servicer would follow in servicing
loans held for its own account, subject to the terms and conditions of the
related Mortgage and Mortgage Note and to the terms and conditions of any
security agreement, guarantee agreement, mortgage or other agreement governing
the disposition of the proceeds of such Additional Collateral) shall be
deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section
3.10. Any other payment received by the Master Servicer in respect of such
Additional Collateral shall be deposited in the Custodial Account subject to
withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.10. Concurrently with the foregoing, the Master
Servicer may pursue any remedies that may be available in connection with a
breach of a representation and warranty with respect to any such Mortgage Loan
in accordance with Sections 2.03 and 2.04. However, the Master Servicer is not
required to continue to pursue both foreclosure (or similar remedies) with
respect to the Mortgage Loans and remedies in connection with a breach of a
representation and warranty if the Master Servicer determines in its reasonable
discretion that one such remedy is more likely to result in a greater recovery
as to the Mortgage Loan. Upon the occurrence of a Cash Liquidation or REO
Disposition, following the deposit in the Custodial Account of all Insurance
Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds and other payments and recoveries referred to in
the definition of "Cash Liquidation" or "REO Disposition," as applicable, upon
receipt by the Trustee of written notification of such deposit signed by a
Servicing Officer, the Trustee or any Custodian, as the case may be, shall
release to the Master Servicer the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall
execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the
Master Servicer, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in
the Master Servicer or its designee, as the case may be, the related Mortgage
Loan, and thereafter such Mortgage Loan shall not be part of the Trust Fund.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, in the
Master Servicer's sole discretion with respect to any defaulted Mortgage Loan or
REO Property as to either of the following provisions, (i) a Cash Liquidation or
REO Disposition may be deemed to have occurred if substantially all amounts
expected by the Master Servicer to be received in connection with the related
defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property have been received, and (ii) for
purposes of determining the amount of any Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance
Proceeds, REO Proceeds or other unscheduled collections or the amount of any
Realized Loss, the Master Servicer may take into account minimal amounts of
additional receipts expected to be received or any estimated additional
liquidation expenses expected to be incurred in connection with the related
defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property.
(d) In the event that title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired by the
Trust Fund as an REO Property by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure,
the deed or
89
certificate of sale shall be issued to the Trustee or to its nominee on behalf
of Certificateholders. Notwithstanding any such acquisition of title and
cancellation of the related Mortgage Loan, such REO Property shall (except as
otherwise expressly provided herein) be considered to be an Outstanding Mortgage
Loan held in the Trust Fund until such time as the REO Property shall be sold.
Consistent with the foregoing for purposes of all calculations hereunder so long
as such REO Property shall be considered to be an Outstanding Mortgage Loan it
shall be assumed that, notwithstanding that the indebtedness evidenced by the
related Mortgage Note shall have been discharged, such Mortgage Note and the
related amortization schedule in effect at the time of any such acquisition of
title (after giving effect to any previous Curtailments and before any
adjustment thereto by reason of any bankruptcy or similar proceeding or any
moratorium or similar waiver or grace period) remain in effect.
(f) In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any REO Property as
aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trust Fund shall dispose of
such REO Property within three full years after the taxable year of its
acquisition by the Trust Fund for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code (or
such shorter period as may be necessary under applicable state (including any
state in which such property is located) law to maintain the status of each of
REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC IV as a REMIC under applicable state law
and avoid taxes resulting from such property failing to be foreclosure property
under applicable state law) or, at the expense of the Trust Fund, request, more
than 60 days before the day on which such grace period would otherwise expire,
an extension of such grace period unless the Master Servicer obtains for the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Master Servicer,
to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such REO Property subsequent
to such period will not result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited
transactions" as defined in Section 860F of the Code or cause any of REMIC I,
REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC IV to fail to qualify as a REMIC (for federal (or
any applicable State or local) income tax purposes) at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding, in which case the Trust Fund may continue to hold
such REO Property (subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion of
Counsel). The Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the
Custodial Account for any costs incurred in obtaining such Opinion of Counsel,
as provided in Section 3.10. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, no REO Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or
allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Trust
Fund in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause such REO
Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or (ii) subject REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or
REMIC IV to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from
such REO Property, including any taxes imposed by reason of Section 860G(c) of
the Code, unless the Master Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless
the Trust Fund with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.
(h) The proceeds of any Cash Liquidation, REO Disposition or
purchase or repurchase of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, as well as any recovery resulting from a collection of Liquidation
Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or REO Proceeds, will be applied in the following
order of priority: first, to reimburse the Master Servicer or the related
Subservicer in accordance with Section 3.10(a)(ii); second, to the
Certificateholders to the extent of accrued and unpaid interest on the Mortgage
Loan, and any related REO Imputed Interest, at the Net Mortgage Rate (or the
Modified Net Mortgage Rate in the case of a Modified Mortgage Loan) (less
Deferred Interest, if any), to the Due Date in the related Due Period prior to
the Distribution Date on which such amounts are to be distributed; third, to the
Certificateholders as a recovery of principal on the Mortgage Loan (or REO
Property) (provided that if any such Class of Certificates
90
to which such Realized Loss was allocated is no longer outstanding, such
subsequent recovery shall be distributed to the persons who were the Holders of
such Class of Certificates when it was retired), other than with respect to any
Arrearage; fourth, to the Master Servicer (or the owner of the Arrearage) in
respect of any Arrearage; fifth, to all Servicing Fees and Subservicing Fees
payable therefrom (and the Master Servicer and the Subservicer shall have no
claims for any deficiencies with respect to such fees which result from the
foregoing allocation); and sixth, to Foreclosure Profits.
(j) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraphs of this Section
3.14, in the event that a Foreclosure Restricted Loan goes into foreclosure, if
acquiring title to the related Mortgaged Property by foreclosure or by deed in
lieu of foreclosure would cause the adjusted basis (for federal income tax
purposes) of the Mortgaged Properties underlying the Foreclosure Restricted
Loans in Loan Group I or Loan Group II that are currently owned by REMIC I or
REMIC II, respectively, after foreclosure (along with any other assets owned by
REMIC I or REMIC II, respectively, other than "qualified mortgages" and
"permitted investments" within the meaning of Section 860G of the Code) to
exceed 0.75% of the adjusted basis of the assets in Loan Group I or Loan Group
II, respectively, the Master Servicer shall not be permitted to acquire title to
such Mortgaged Property on behalf of REMIC I or REMIC II, respectively. Instead,
the Master Servicer shall dispose of the Mortgage Loan for cash in the
foreclosure sale. In addition, if the Master Servicer determines that following
a distribution on any Distribution Date the adjusted bases of the Mortgaged
Properties underlying the Foreclosure Restricted Loans in foreclosure (along
with any other assets owned by REMIC I or REMIC II, as the case may be, other
than "qualified mortgages" and "permitted investments" within the meaning of
Section 860G of the Code) exceed 1.0% of the adjusted bases of the assets of
REMIC I or REMIC II, as the case may be, immediately after the distribution,
then prior to such Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall dispose of
enough of such Mortgaged Properties in foreclosure, for cash, so that the
adjusted bases of such Mortgaged Properties in foreclosure (along with any other
assets owned by REMIC I or REMIC II, as the case may be, other than "qualified
mortgages" and "permitted investments" within the meaning of Section 860G of the
Code) will be less than 1.0% of the adjusted bases of the assets of REMIC I or
REMIC II, as the case may be. In either event, the Master Servicer is permitted
to acquire (for its own account and not on behalf of the Trust) the Mortgaged
Property at the foreclosure sale for an amount not less than the greater of: (i)
the highest amount bid by any other person at the foreclosure sale, or (ii) the
estimated fair value of the Mortgaged Property, as determined by the Master
Servicer in good faith.
Section 6.30. Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.
(b) Upon becoming aware of the payment in full of any Mortgage
Loan, or upon the receipt by the Master Servicer of a notification that payment
in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master
Servicer will immediately notify the Trustee (if it holds the related Mortgage
File) or the Custodian by a certification of a Servicing Officer (which
certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received
or to be received in connection with such payment which are required to be
deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.07 have been or will be
so deposited), substantially in one of the forms attached hereto as Exhibit G
requesting delivery to it of the Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such
certification and request, the Trustee shall promptly release, or cause the
Custodian to release, the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer. The
Master Servicer is authorized to execute and deliver to the Mortgagor the
request for reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or release or satisfaction of
mortgage or such instrument releasing the lien of the Mortgage, together with
the Mortgage Note with, as
91
appropriate, written evidence of cancellation thereon and to cause the removal
from the registration on the MERS(R) System of such Mortgage and to execute and
deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders or any of them, any
and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation or of partial or full
release, including any applicable UCC termination statements. No expenses
incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of
reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Custodial Account or the Certificate
Account.
(d) From time to time as is appropriate for the servicing or
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the
Custodian, with a copy to the Trustee, a certificate of a Servicing Officer
substantially in one of the forms attached as Exhibit G hereto, requesting that
possession of all, or any document constituting part of, the Mortgage File be
released to the Master Servicer and certifying as to the reason for such release
and that such release will not invalidate any insurance coverage provided in
respect of the Mortgage Loan under any Required Insurance Policy. Upon receipt
of the foregoing, the Trustee shall deliver, or cause the Custodian to deliver,
the Mortgage File or any document therein to the Master Servicer. The Master
Servicer shall cause each Mortgage File or any document therein so released to
be returned to the Trustee, or the Custodian as agent for the Trustee 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 Custodial Account or (ii) the Mortgage File or
such document has been delivered directly or through a Subservicer 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 directly or through a Subservicer to the
Trustee a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and
address of the Person to which such Mortgage File or such document was delivered
and the purpose or purposes of such delivery. In the event of the liquidation of
a Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall deliver the Request for Release with respect
thereto to the Master Servicer upon deposit of the related Liquidation Proceeds
in the Custodial Account.
(f) The Trustee or the Master Servicer on the Trustee's behalf
shall execute and deliver to the Master Servicer, if necessary, any court
pleadings, requests for trustee's sale or other documents necessary to the
foreclosure or trustee's sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal
action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or
Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or
rights provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law
or in equity. Together with such documents or pleadings (if signed by the
Trustee), the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate of a
Servicing Officer requesting that such pleadings or documents be executed by the
Trustee and certifying as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required
and that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not invalidate
any insurance coverage under any Required Insurance Policy or invalidate or
otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except for the termination of such a
lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee's sale.
Section 6.32. Servicing and Other Compensation; Compensating Interest.
(b) The Master Servicer, as compensation for its activities
hereunder, shall be entitled to receive on each Distribution Date the amounts
provided for by clauses (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) of Section 3.10(a), subject to
clause (e) below. The amount of servicing compensation provided for in such
clauses shall be accounted for on a Mortgage Loan-by-Mortgage Loan basis. In the
event that Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds and REO Proceeds (net of
amounts reimbursable therefrom pursuant to Section 3.10(a)(ii)) in respect of a
Cash Liquidation or REO
92
Disposition exceed the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan plus
unpaid interest accrued thereon (including REO Imputed Interest) at a per annum
rate equal to the related Net Mortgage Rate (or the Modified Net Mortgage Rate
in the case of a Modified Mortgage Loan), the Master Servicer shall be entitled
to retain therefrom and to pay to itself and/or the related Subservicer, any
Foreclosure Profits and any Servicing Fee or Subservicing Fee considered to be
accrued but unpaid. If the portion of a Monthly Payment on a Simple Interest
Loan that is applied to interest is less than the portion of such Monthly
Payment that would have been applied to interest if such payment had been
received on the related Due Date, the aggregate Servicing Fee payable on the
related Distribution Date to the Master Servicer in respect of all of the
Mortgage Loans shall be reduced by such difference. If the portion of a Monthly
Payment on a Simple Interest Loan that is applied to interest is more than the
portion of such Monthly Payment that would have been applied to interest if such
payment had been received on the related Due Date, the aggregate Servicing Fee
payable on the related Distribution Date to the Master Servicer in respect of
all of the Mortgage Loans shall be increased by such difference.
(d) Additional servicing compensation in the form of prepayment
charges, assumption fees, late payment charges, investment income on amounts in
the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account or otherwise shall be retained
by the Master Servicer or the Subservicer to the extent provided herein, subject
to clause (e) below.
(f) The Master Servicer shall be required to pay, or cause to be
paid, all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities
hereunder (including payment of premiums for the Primary Insurance Policies, if
any, to the extent such premiums are not required to be paid by the related
Mortgagors, and the fees and expenses of the Trustee and any Custodian) and
shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided
in Sections 3.10 and 3.14.
(h) The Master Servicer's right to receive servicing compensation
may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the
transfer of all of its responsibilities and obligations of the Master Servicer
under this Agreement.
(j) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the amount of
servicing compensation that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive for
its activities hereunder for the period ending on each Distribution Date shall
be reduced (but not below zero) by an amount equal to Compensating Interest (if
any) for such Distribution Date. Such reduction shall be applied during such
period as follows: first, to any Servicing Fee or Subservicing Fee to which the
Master Servicer is entitled pursuant to Section 3.10(a)(iii); second, to any
income or gain realized from any investment of funds held in the Custodial
Account or the Certificate Account to which the Master Servicer is entitled
pursuant to Sections 3.07(c) or 4.01(b), respectively; and third, to any amounts
of servicing compensation to which the Master Servicer is entitled pursuant to
Section 3.10(a)(v) or (vi). In making such reduction, the Master Servicer shall
not withdraw from the Custodial Account any such amount representing all or a
portion of the Servicing Fee to which it is entitled pursuant to Section
3.10(a)(iii); (ii) shall not withdraw from the Custodial Account or Certificate
Account any such amount to which it is entitled pursuant to Section 3.07(c) or
4.01(b) and (iii) shall not withdraw from the Custodial Account any such amount
of servicing compensation to which it is entitled pursuant to Section 3.10(a)(v)
or (vi). With respect to any Distribution Date, Compensating Interest derived
from Loan Group I shall be used on such Distribution Date (i) to cover any
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the Group I Loans and (ii) to cover any
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the Group II Loans, but only to the extent not
covered by Compensating Interest derived from Loan
93
Group II. With respect to any Distribution Date, Compensating Interest derived
from Loan Group II shall be used on such Distribution Date (i) to cover any
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the Group II Loans and (ii) to cover any
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the Group I Loans, but only to the extent not
covered by Compensating Interest derived from Loan Group I.
Section 6.34. Reports to the Trustee and the Depositor.
Not later than fifteen days after each Distribution Date, the
Master Servicer shall forward to the Trustee and the Depositor a statement,
certified by a Servicing Officer, setting forth the status of the Custodial
Account as of the close of business on such Distribution Date as it relates to
the Mortgage Loans and showing, for the period covered by such statement, the
aggregate of deposits in or withdrawals from the Custodial Account in respect of
the Mortgage Loans for each category of deposit specified in Section 3.07 and
each category of withdrawal specified in Section 3.10.
Section 6.36. Annual Statement as to Compliance.
The Master Servicer will deliver to the Depositor, the Trustee on
or before March 31 of each year, beginning with the first March 31 that occurs
at least six months after the Cut-off Date, an Officers' Certificate stating, as
to each signer thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Master
Servicer during the preceding calendar year related to its servicing of mortgage
loans and of its performance under the pooling and servicing agreements,
including this Agreement, has been made under such officers' supervision, (ii)
to the best of such officers' knowledge, based on such review, the Master
Servicer has complied in all material respects with the minimum servicing
standards set forth in the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage
Bankers and has fulfilled all of its material obligations in all material
respects throughout such year, or, if there has been material noncompliance with
such servicing standards or a default in the fulfillment in all material
respects of any such obligation relating to this Agreement, such statement shall
include a description of such noncompliance or specify each such default, as the
case may be, known to such officer and the nature and status thereof and (iii)
to the best of such officers' knowledge, each Subservicer has complied in all
material respects with the minimum servicing standards set forth in the Uniform
Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers and has fulfilled all of its
material obligations under its Subservicing Agreement in all material respects
throughout such year, or if there has been material noncompliance with such
servicing standards or a material default in the fulfillment of such obligations
relating to this Agreement, specifying such statement shall include a
description of such noncompliance or specify each such default, as the case may
be, known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.
Section 6.38. Annual Independent Public Accountants' Servicing Report.
On or before March 31 of each year, beginning with the first
March 31 that occurs at least six months after the Cut-off Date, the Master
Servicer at its expense shall cause a firm of independent public accountants
which shall be members of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
to furnish a report to the Depositor and the Trustee stating its opinion that,
on the basis of an examination conducted by such firm substantially in
accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants, the assertions made pursuant to Section 3.18 regarding
compliance with the minimum servicing standards set forth in the Uniform Single
Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers during the preceding calendar year are
fairly stated in all material respects, subject to such exceptions and other
qualifications that, in the opinion of such
94
firm, such accounting standards require it to report. In rendering such
statement, such firm may rely, as to matters relating to the direct servicing of
mortgage loans by Subservicers, upon comparable statements for examinations
conducted by independent public accountants substantially in accordance with
standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
(rendered within one year of such statement) with respect to such Subservicers.
Section 6.40. Right of the Depositor in Respect of the Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall afford the Depositor, upon reasonable
notice, during normal business hours access to all records maintained by the
Master Servicer in respect of its rights and obligations hereunder and access to
officers of the Master Servicer responsible for such obligations. Upon request,
the Master Servicer shall furnish the Depositor with its most recent financial
statements and such other information as the Master Servicer possesses regarding
its business, affairs, property and condition, financial or otherwise. The
Master Servicer shall also cooperate with all reasonable requests for
information including, but not limited to, notices, tapes and copies of files,
regarding itself, the Mortgage Loans or the Certificates from any Person or
Persons identified by the Depositor or Residential Funding. The Depositor may,
but is not obligated to perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted
obligation of the Master Servicer hereunder or exercise the rights of the Master
Servicer hereunder; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be relieved of
any of its obligations hereunder by virtue of such performance by the Depositor
or its designee. The Depositor shall not have the responsibility or liability
for any action or failure to act by the Master Servicer and is not obligated to
supervise the performance of the Master Servicer under this Agreement or
otherwise.

(n) In addition to the foregoing distributions, with respect to
any Mortgage Loan that was previously the subject of a Cash Liquidation or an
REO Disposition that resulted in a Realized Loss, in the event that within two
years of the date on which such Realized Loss was determined to have occurred
the Master Servicer receives amounts which the Master Servicer reasonably
believes to represent subsequent recoveries (net of any related liquidation
expenses), or determines that it holds surplus amounts previously reserved to
cover estimated expenses specifically related to such Mortgage Loan (including,
but not limited to, recoveries (net of any related liquidation expenses) in
respect of the representations and warranties made by the related Seller
pursuant to the applicable Seller's Agreement), the Master Servicer shall
distribute such amounts to the Class or Classes to which such Realized Loss was
allocated (with the amounts to be distributed allocated among such Classes in
the same proportions as such Realized Loss was allocated), and within each such
Class to the Certificateholders of record as of the Record Date immediately
preceding the date of such distribution (or if such Class of Certificates is no
longer outstanding, to the Certificateholders of record at the time that such
Realized Loss was allocated); provided that no such distribution to any Class of
Certificates of subsequent recoveries related to a Mortgage Loan shall exceed,
either individually or in the aggregate and together with any other amounts paid
in reimbursement therefor, the amount of the related Realized Loss that was
allocated to such Class of Certificates. For the purposes of this Section
4.02(g) any allocation of a Realized Loss to Group I or Group II Excess Cash
Flow will be treated as an allocation of a Realized Loss to the Class A-I, Class
M-I and Class B-I Certificates or the Class A-II, Class M-II and Class B-II
Certificates, as applicable. Any amounts to be so distributed shall not be
remitted to or distributed from the Trust Fund, and shall constitute subsequent
recoveries with respect to Mortgage Loans that are no longer assets of the Trust
Fund.
(p) Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate
shall be paid to the Depository, as Holder thereof, and the Depository shall be
responsible for crediting the amount of such distribution to the accounts of its
Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each
Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to
the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating
brokerage firm (a "brokerage firm" or "indirect participating firm") for which
it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds
to the Certificate Owners that it represents. None of the Trustee, the
Certificate Registrar, the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall have any
responsibility therefor except as otherwise provided by this Agreement or
applicable law.
(r) Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, if the Master
Servicer anticipates that a final distribution with respect to any Class of
Certificates will be made on the next Distribution Date, the Master Servicer
shall, no later than the Determination Date in the month of such final
distribution, notify the Trustee and the Trustee shall, no later than two (2)
Business Days after such Determination Date, mail on such date to each Holder of
such Class of Certificates a notice to the effect that: (i) the Trustee
anticipates that the final distribution with respect to such Class of
Certificates will be made on such Distribution Date but only upon presentation
and
106
surrender of such Certificates at the office of the Trustee or as otherwise
specified therein, and (ii) no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from
and after the end of the prior calendar month. In the event that
Certificateholders required to surrender their Certificates pursuant to Section
9.01(c) do not surrender their Certificates for final cancellation, the Trustee
shall cause funds distributable with respect to such Certificates to be
withdrawn from the Certificate Account and credited to a separate escrow account
for the benefit of such Certificateholders as provided in Section 9.01(d).
(t) To the extent on any Distribution Date the Group II Available
Distribution Amount is less than Accrued Certificate Interest on the Class A-II,
Class M-II and Class B-II Certificates on such Distribution Date (without regard
to clause (iii) of the definition thereof) and Deferred Interest exists on such
Distribution Date, the lesser of such excess and the amount of Deferred Interest
shall result in a reduction in Accrued Certificate Interest on the Class A-II,
Class M-II and Class B-II Certificates and an increase in the Certificate
Principal Balance of the Class A-II, Class M-II and Class B-II Certificates.

(xxii) the aggregate of any deposits to and withdrawals from the Reserve
Fund for such Distribution Date and the remaining amount on
deposit in the Reserve Fund after such deposits and withdrawals.
In the case of information furnished pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above, the
amounts shall be expressed as a dollar amount per Certificate with a $1,000
denomination. In addition to the
108
statement provided to the Trustee as set forth in this Section 4.03(a), the
Master Servicer shall provide to any manager of a trust fund consisting of some
or all of the Certificates, upon reasonable request, such additional information
as is reasonably obtainable by the Master Servicer at no additional expense to
the Master Servicer.
(d) Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each
calendar year, the Master Servicer shall prepare, or cause to be prepared, and
the Trustee shall forward, or cause to be forwarded, to each Person who at any
time during the calendar year was the Holder of a Certificate, other than a
Class R Certificate, a statement containing the information set forth in clauses
(i) and (ii) of subsection (a) above aggregated for such calendar year or
applicable portion thereof during which such Person was a Certificateholder.
Such obligation of the Master Servicer and Trustee shall be deemed to have been
satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall be
provided by the Master Servicer and Trustee pursuant to any requirements of the
Code.
(f) As soon as reasonably practicable, upon the written request
of any Certificateholder, the Master Servicer shall provide the requesting
Certificateholder with such information as is necessary and appropriate, in the
Master Servicer's sole discretion, for purposes of satisfying applicable
reporting requirements under Rule 144A.
Section 8.08. Distribution of Reports to the Trustee and
the Depositor; Advances by the Master Servicer.
(b) Prior to the close of business on the Business Day next
succeeding each Determination Date, the Master Servicer shall furnish a written
statement (which may be in a mutually agreeable electronic format) to the
Trustee, any Paying Agent and the Depositor (the information in such statement
to be made available to Certificateholders by the Master Servicer on request)
(provided that the Master Servicer will use its best efforts to deliver such
written statement not later than 12:00 p.m. New York time on the second Business
Day prior to the Distribution Date) setting forth (i) the Group I or Group II
Available Distribution Amounts, (ii) the amounts required to be withdrawn from
the Custodial Account and deposited into the Certificate Account on the
immediately succeeding Certificate Account Deposit Date pursuant to clause (iii)
of Section 4.01(a), (iii) the amounts required to be withdrawn from and
deposited into the Reserve Fund pursuant to Section 4.08, (iv) the amount of
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls, Basis Risk Shortfalls and Basis Risk Shortfall
Carry-Forward Amounts, and (v) to the extent required, a report detailing the
Stated Principal Balance, Mortgage Rate, Modified Mortgage Rate, remaining term
to maturity and Monthly Payment for any Modified Mortgage Loan pursuant to
Section 3.13. The determination by the Master Servicer of such amounts shall, in
the absence of obvious error, be presumptively deemed to be correct for all
purposes hereunder and the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon the same
without any independent check or verification.
(d) On or before 2:00 P.M. New York time on each Certificate
Account Deposit Date, the Master Servicer shall either (i) deposit in the
Certificate Account from its own funds, or funds received therefor from the
Subservicers, an amount equal to the Advances to be made by the Master Servicer
in respect of the related Distribution Date, which shall be in an aggregate
amount equal to the sum of (A) the aggregate amount of Monthly Payments other
than Balloon Payments (with each interest portion thereof adjusted to a per
annum rate equal to the Net Mortgage Rate), less the amount of any related
Servicing Modifications, Deferred Interest, if any, Debt Service Reductions or
reductions in the amount of interest collectable from the Mortgagor pursuant to
the
109
Relief Act or similar legislation or regulations then in effect, on the
Outstanding Mortgage Loans as of the related Due Date in the related Due Period,
which Monthly Payments were due during the related Due Period and not received
as of the close of business as of the related Determination Date; provided that
no Advance shall be made if it would be a Nonrecoverable Advance and (B) with
respect to each Balloon Loan delinquent in respect of its Balloon Payment as of
the close of business on the related Determination Date, an amount equal to the
excess, if any, of interest on the unpaid principal balance thereof (with each
interest portion thereof adjusted to a per annum rate equal to the Net Mortgage
Rate), over any payments of interest (with each interest portion thereof
adjusted to a per annum rate equal to the Net Mortgage Rate) received from the
related Mortgagor as of the close of business on the related Determination Date
and allocable to the Due Date during the related Due Period for each month until
such Balloon Loan is finally liquidated, (ii) withdraw from amounts on deposit
in the Custodial Account and deposit in the Certificate Account all or a portion
of the Amount Held for Future Distribution in discharge of any such Advance, or
(iii) make advances in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating
the amount of such Advance. Any portion of the Amount Held for Future
Distribution so used shall be replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the
Certificate Account on or before 11:00 A.M. New York time on any future
Certificate Account Deposit Date to the extent that funds attributable to the
Mortgage Loans that are available in the Custodial Account for deposit in the
Certificate Account on such Certificate Account Deposit Date shall be less than
payments to Certificateholders required to be made on the following Distribution
Date. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to use any Advance made by a
Subservicer as described in Section 3.07(b) that has been deposited in the
Custodial Account on or before such Distribution Date as part of the Advance
made by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 4.04.
The determination by the Master Servicer that it has made a
Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed Advance, if made, would constitute a
Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be evidenced by a certificate of a Servicing
Officer delivered to the Depositor and the Trustee.
In the event that the Master Servicer determines as of the
Business Day preceding any Certificate Account Deposit Date that it will be
unable to deposit in the Certificate Account an amount equal to the Advance
required to be made for the immediately succeeding Distribution Date, it shall
give notice to the Trustee of its inability to advance (such notice may be given
by telecopy), not later than 3:00 P.M., New York time, on such Business Day,
specifying the portion of such amount that it will be unable to deposit. Not
later than 3:00 P.M., New York time, on the Certificate Account Deposit Date the
Trustee shall, unless by 12:00 Noon, New York time, on such day the Trustee
shall have been notified in writing (by telecopy) that the Master Servicer shall
have directly or indirectly deposited in the Certificate Account such portion of
the amount of the Advance as to which the Master Servicer shall have given
notice pursuant to the preceding sentence, pursuant to Section 7.01, (a)
terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement in accordance with Section 7.01 and (b) assume the rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder, including the obligation to
deposit in the Certificate Account an amount equal to the Advance for the
immediately succeeding Distribution Date.
The Trustee shall deposit all funds it receives pursuant to this
Section 4.04 into the Certificate Account.
Section 8.10. Allocation of Realized Losses.
(b) Prior to each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall
determine the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, that resulted from any
Cash Liquidation, Servicing
110
Modifications, Debt Service Reduction, Deficient Valuation or REO Disposition
that occurred during the related Prepayment Period or, in the case of a
Servicing Modification that constitutes a reduction of the interest rate on a
Mortgage Loan, the amount of the reduction in the interest portion of the
Monthly Payment due in the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. The
amount of each Realized Loss shall be evidenced by an Officers' Certificate. All
Realized Losses on the Group I Loans (other than Group I Excess Losses) shall be
allocated as follows: first, to the Group I Excess Cash Flow, by an increase in
the amount of the Group I Principal Distribution Amount as provided in clause
(iv) of the definition thereof, to the extent of the Group I Excess Cash Flow
for such Distribution Date, second, to the Group II Excess Cash Flow as provided
through the payment of the Group II Diverted Loss Excess Cash Flow as provided
in clause (iv) of the definition of Group I Principal Distribution Amount, to
the extent of the Group II Excess Cash Flow for such Distribution Date not used
to cover Realized Losses on the Group II Loans; third, in reduction of the Group
I Overcollateralization Amount, until such amount has been reduced to zero;
fourth, to the Class B-I Certificates; fifth, to the Class M-I-3 Certificates;
sixth, to the Class M-I-2 Certificates; seventh, to the Class M-I-1
Certificates; and thereafter, to the Class A-I Certificates on a pro rata basis.
Any Group I Excess Losses on the Mortgage Loans will be allocated to the Class
A-I, Class M-I and Class B-I Certificates on a pro rata basis, in an amount
equal to a fraction of such losses equal to (x) the aggregate Certificate
Principal Balance of the Class A-I, Class M-I and Class B-I Certificates over
(y) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Group I Loans, and the
remainder of such losses shall be allocated to the Group I Overcollateralization
Amount in reduction of the amount thereof. All Realized Losses on the Group II
Loans (other than Group II Excess Losses) shall be allocated as follows: first,
to the Group II Excess Cash Flow, by an increase in the amount of the Group II
Principal Distribution Amount as provided in clause (iv) of the definition
thereof, to the extent of the Group II Excess Cash Flow for such Distribution
Date, second, to the Group I Excess Cash Flow as provided through the payment of
the Group I Diverted Loss Excess Cash Flow as provided in clause (iv) of the
definition of Group II Principal Distribution Amount, to the extent of the Group
I Excess Cash Flow for such Distribution Date not used to cover Realized Losses
on the Group I Loans; third, in reduction of the Group II Overcollateralization
Amount, until such amount has been reduced to zero; fourth, to the Class B-II
Certificates; fifth, to the Class M-II-3 Certificates; sixth, to the Class
M-II-2 Certificates; seventh, to the Class M-II-1 Certificates; and thereafter
to the Class A-II Certificates. Any Group II Excess Losses on the Mortgage Loans
will be allocated to the Class A-II, Class M-II and Class B-II Certificates, in
an amount equal to a fraction of such losses equal to (x) the aggregate
Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-II, Class M-II and Class B-II
Certificates over (y) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Group II
Loans, and the remainder of such losses shall be allocated to the Group II
Overcollateralization Amount in reduction of the amount thereof.
(d) Any allocation of the principal portion of Realized Losses
(other than Debt Service Reductions) to the Class A, Class M and Class B
Certificates shall be made by reducing the Certificate Principal Balance thereof
by the amount so allocated, which allocation shall be deemed to have occurred on
such Distribution Date. Allocations of the interest portions of Realized Losses
shall be made by operation of the definition of "Accrued Certificate Interest"
and by operation of the provisions of Section 4.02(c) and (d). All Realized
Losses and all other losses allocated to a Class of Certificates hereunder will
be allocated among the Certificates of such Class in proportion to the
Percentage Interests evidenced thereby.
(f) All Realized Losses on the Group I Loans shall be allocated
on each Distribution Date to REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTA until the
Uncertificated Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero and then to
REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTB until the Uncertificated
111
Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero. All Realized Losses on the
Group II Loans shall be allocated on each Distribution Date to REMIC I Regular
Interest II-LT until the Uncertificated Principal Balance thereof has been
reduced to zero.
(h) (i) All Realized Losses on the Group I Loans shall be
allocated on each Distribution Date to the following REMIC III Group I Regular
Interests (other than REMIC III Regular Interest LT11-IA, REMIC III Regular
Interest LT11-IB, REMIC III Regular Interest LT11-IC, REMIC III Regular Interest
LT11-ID and REMIC III Regular Interest LT11-IE) in the specified percentages, as
follows: first, to Uncertificated Accrued Interest payable to the REMIC III
Regular Interests LT1-I and LT10-I up to an aggregate amount equal to the excess
of (a) the REMIC III Group I Interest Loss Allocation Amount over (b) Prepayment
Interest Shortfalls (to the extent not covered by Compensating Interest)
relating to the Group I Loans for such Distribution Date, 98% and 2%,
respectively; second, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of the REMIC III
Regular Interests LT1-I and LT10-I up to an aggregate amount equal to the REMIC
III Group I Principal Loss Allocation Amount, 98% and 2%, respectively; third,
to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC III Regular Interests LT1-I,
98%, LT2-I, LT3-I, LT4-I, LT5-I, LT6, LT7, LT8 and LT9, 1% pro rata, and LT10-I,
1%, until the Uncertificated Balance of each of REMIC III Regular Interests
LT2-I, LT3-I, LT4-I, LT5-I, LT6, LT7, LT8 and LT9 have been reduced to zero.
(ii) All Realized Losses on the Group II Loans shall be allocated on
each Distribution Date to the following REMIC III Group II Regular Interests in
the specified percentages, as follows: first, to Uncertificated Accrued Interest
payable to the REMIC III Regular Interests LT1-II and LT7- II up to an aggregate
amount equal to the excess of (a) the REMIC III Group II Interest Loss
Allocation Amount over (b) Prepayment Interest Shortfalls (to the extent not
covered by Compensating Interest) relating to the Group II Loans for such
Distribution Date, 98% and 2%, respectively; second, to the Uncertificated
Principal Balances of the REMIC III Regular Interests LT1-II and LT7-II up to an
aggregate amount equal to the REMIC III Group II Principal Loss Allocation
Amount, 98% and 2%, respectively; third, to the Uncertificated Principal
Balances of REMIC III Regular Interests LT1-II, 98%, LT2-II, LT3-II, LT4-II,
LT5-II and LT6-II, 1%, pro rata, and LT7-II, 1%, respectively, until the
Uncertificated Balance of each of REMIC III Regular Interest LT2-II, LT3-II,
LT4-II, LT5-II and LT6-II have been reduced to zero.
Section 8.12. Reports of Foreclosures and Abandonment of Mortgaged
Property.
The Master Servicer or the Subservicers shall file information
returns with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest received in a trade or
business, the reports of foreclosures and abandonments of any Mortgaged Property
and the informational returns relating to cancellation of indebtedness income
with respect to any Mortgaged Property required by Sections 6050H, 6050J and
6050P of the Code, respectively, and deliver to the Trustee an Officers'
Certificate on or before March 31 of each year stating that such reports have
been filed. Such reports shall be in form and substance sufficient to meet the
reporting requirements imposed by such Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the
Code.
Section 8.14. Optional Purchase of Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
As to any Mortgage Loan which is delinquent in payment by 90 days
or more, the Master Servicer may, at its option, purchase such Mortgage Loan
from the Trustee at the Purchase Price therefor; provided, that any such
Mortgage Loan that becomes 90 days or more delinquent
112
during any given Calendar Quarter shall only be eligible for purchase pursuant
to this Section during the period beginning on the first Business Day of the
following Calendar Quarter, and ending at the close of business on the
second-to-last Business Day of such following Calendar Quarter; and provided
further, that such Mortgage Loan is 90 days or more delinquent at the time of
repurchase. Such option if not exercised shall not thereafter be reinstated as
to any Mortgage Loan, unless the delinquency is cured and the Mortgage Loan
thereafter again becomes delinquent in payment by 60 days or more in a
subsequent Calendar Quarter. If at any time the Master Servicer makes a payment
to the Certificate Account covering the amount of the Purchase Price for such a
Mortgage Loan, and the Master Servicer provides to the Trustee a certification
signed by a Servicing Officer stating that the amount of such payment has been
deposited in the Certificate Account, then the Trustee, at the request of the
Master Servicer, shall execute the assignment of such Mortgage Loan to the
Master Servicer without recourse, and the Master Servicer shall succeed to all
the Trustee's right, title and interest in and to such Mortgage Loan, and all
security and documents relative thereto. Such assignment shall be an assignment
outright and not for security. The Master Servicer will thereupon own such
Mortgage, and all such security and documents, free of any further obligation to
the Trustee or the Certificateholders with respect thereto.
Section 8.16. Distribution of Basis Risk Shortfall Carry-Forward
Amount; Reserve Fund.
(a) On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain
in its name, in trust for the benefit of Class A-II, Class M-II and Class B-II
Certificates, the Reserve Fund. In addition, on the Closing Date, the Trustee
shall deposit into the Reserve Fund the Reserve Fund Deposit.
On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall transfer from the
Certificate Account to the Reserve Fund the amounts specified pursuant to
Sections 4.02(c)(xvi) and 4.02(d)(xvi). On each Distribution Date, to the extent
required, the Trustee shall make withdrawals from the Reserve Fund and use the
amounts in the Reserve Fund to make distributions to the Class A-II, Class M-II
and Class B-II Certificates, in an amount equal to the amount of any Basis Risk
Shortfall Carry-Forward Amount on such Certificate. Any such amounts transferred
shall be treated for federal tax purposes as amounts distributed by REMIC IV to
the Class SB-I and Class SB-II Certificateholders, respectively, as transferee
thereof. On each Distribution Date, to the extent that the balance of deposits
in the Reserve Fund is in excess of $5,000 after the distributions described in
the second preceding sentence, the Trustee shall, based upon the information
provided by the Master Servicer, withdraw from the Reserve Fund (to the extent
of funds available on deposit therein) such amounts in excess of $5,000, if any,
and distribute them to the holder of the Reserve Fund Residual Right.
(b) The Reserve Fund shall be an Eligible Account. Amounts held
in the Reserve Fund from time to time shall continue to constitute assets of the
Trust Fund, but not of the REMICs, until released from the Reserve Fund pursuant
to this Section 4.08. The Reserve Fund constitutes an "outside reserve fund"
within the meaning of Treasury Regulation ss.1.860G-2(h) and is not an asset of
the REMICs. The Class SB-I and Class SB-II Certificateholders shall be the
owners of the Reserve Fund, and for all federal tax purposes, amounts
transferred by the REMICs to the Reserve Fund shall be treated as amounts
distributed by the REMICs to the Class SB-I and Class SB-II Certificateholders.
The Trustee shall keep records that accurately reflect the funds on deposit in
the Reserve Fund. The Trustee shall, at the direction of the Master Servicer,
invest amounts on deposit in the Reserve Fund in Permitted Investments. In the
absence of written direction to the Trustee from the Master Servicer, all funds
in the Reserve Fund shall remain uninvested. On each
113
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute any interest on the Reserve Fund
to the holder of the Reserve Fund Residual Right.
(c) The holder of the Reserve Fund Residual Right with respect to
the Reserve Fund shall initially be Residential Funding as holder of the Class
SB-I and Class SB-II Certificates, and such Reserve Fund Residual Right shall at
all times be owned by and allocated to Class SB-I and Class SB-II
Certificateholders on a pro rata basis. So long as Residential Funding is the
holder of the Class SB-I and Class SB-II Certificates, any amounts payable
pursuant to this Section 4.08 shall be payable to Residential Funding. In the
event of a transfer of the ownership in any of the Class SB-I and Class SB-II
Certificates by Residential Funding, a pro rata portion of the Reserve Fund
Residual Right will be transferred along with such Class SB-I or Class SB-II
Certificates.
Section 8.18. Surety Bond.
(b) If a Required Surety Payment is payable pursuant to the
Surety Bond with respect to any Additional Collateral Loan, the Master Servicer
shall so notify the Trustee as soon as reasonably practicable and the Trustee
shall promptly complete the notice in the form of Attachment 1 to the Surety
Bond and shall promptly submit such notice to the Surety as a claim for a
Required Surety. The Master Servicer shall upon request assist the Trustee in
completing such notice and shall provide any information requested by the
Trustee in connection therewith.
(d) Upon receipt of a Required Surety Payment from the Surety on
behalf of the Holders of Certificates, the Trustee shall deposit such Required
Surety Payment in the Certificate Account and shall distribute such Required
Surety Payment, or the proceeds thereof, in accordance with the provisions of
Section 4.02.
(f) The Trustee shall (i) receive as attorney-in-fact of each
Holder of a Certificate any Required Surety Payment from the Surety and (ii)
disburse the same to the Holders of such Certificates as set forth in Section
4.02.
114
ARTICLE IX
THE CERTIFICATES
Section 10.02. The Certificates.
(b) The Class A, Class M, Class B, Class SB and Class R
Certificates shall be substantially in the forms set forth in Exhibits A through
D, as applicable, and shall, on original issue, be executed and delivered by the
Trustee to the Certificate Registrar for authentication and delivery to or upon
the order of the Depositor upon receipt by the Trustee or one or more Custodians
of the documents specified in Section 2.01. The Class A, Class M-I-1 and Class
M-II-1 Certificates shall be issuable in minimum dollar denominations of $25,000
and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The Class M-II-1, Class M-II-2,
Class M-I-3 and Class M-II-3 Certificates shall be issuable in minimum dollar
denominations of $250,000 and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The
Class B Certificates shall be issuable in minimum dollar denominations of
$1,000,000 and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The Class SB
Certificates shall be issuable in registered, certificated form in minimum
percentage interests of 5.00% and integral multiples of 0.01% in excess thereof.
Each Class of Class R Certificates shall be issued in registered, certificated
form in minimum percentage interests of 20.00% and integral multiples of 0.01%
in excess thereof; provided, however, that one Class R Certificate of each Class
will be issuable to the REMIC Administrator as "tax matters person" pursuant to
Section 10.01(c) in a minimum denomination representing a Percentage Interest of
not less than 0.01%. On the Closing Date, one Class B-I Certificate shall be
registered as a Temporary Regulation S Global Class B Certificate with a
Certificate Principal Balance of $3,916,000.00 and one Class B-I Certificate
shall be registered as a Rule 144A Global Class B Certificate with a Certificate
Principal Balance of $0.00. On the Closing Date, one Class B-II Certificate
shall be registered as a Temporary Regulation S Global Class B Certificate with
a Certificate Principal Balance of $4,965,000.00 and one Class B-II Certificate
shall be registered as a Rule 144A Global Class B Certificate with a Certificate
Principal Balance of $0.00.
The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile
signature on behalf of an authorized officer of the Trustee. Certificates
bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time
the proper officers of the Trustee shall bind the Trustee, notwithstanding that
such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the
authentication and delivery of such Certificate or did not hold such offices at
the date of such Certificates. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit
under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such
Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided
for herein executed by the Certificate Registrar by manual signature, and such
certificate upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.
(d) The Class A, Class M and Class B Certificates shall initially
be issued as one or more Certificates registered in the name of the Depository
or its nominee and, except as provided below, registration of such Certificates
may not be transferred by the Trustee except to another Depository that agrees
to hold such Certificates for the respective Certificate Owners with Ownership
Interests therein. The Certificate Owners shall hold their respective Ownership
Interests in and to each Class A, Class M and Class B Certificate, through the
book-entry facilities of the
115
Depository and, except as provided below, shall not be entitled to Definitive
Certificates in respect of such Ownership Interests. All transfers by
Certificate Owners of their respective Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry
Certificates shall be made in accordance with the procedures established by the
Depository Participant or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owner.
Each Depository Participant shall transfer the Ownership Interests only in the
Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage
firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the Depository's normal
procedures.
The Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Depositor may for all
purposes (including the making of payments due on the respective Classes of
Book-Entry Certificates) deal with the Depository as the authorized
representative of the Certificate Owners with respect to the respective Classes
of Book- Entry Certificates for the purposes of exercising the rights of
Certificateholders hereunder. The rights of Certificate Owners with respect to
the respective Classes of Book-Entry Certificates shall be limited to those
established by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the
Depository Participants and brokerage firms representing such Certificate
Owners. Multiple requests and directions from, and votes of, the Depository as
Holder of any Class of Book- Entry Certificates with respect to any particular
matter shall not be deemed inconsistent if they are made with respect to
different Certificate Owners. The Trustee may establish a reasonable record date
in connection with solicitations of consents from or voting by
Certificateholders and shall give notice to the Depository of such record date.
If (i)(A) the Depositor advises the Trustee in writing that the
Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its
responsibilities as Depository and (B) the Depositor is unable to locate a
qualified successor or (ii) the Depositor at its option advises the Trustee in
writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the
Depository, the Trustee shall notify all Certificate Owners, through the
Depository, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of
Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon
surrender to the Trustee of the Book-Entry Certificates by the Depository,
accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for registration of
transfer, the Trustee shall issue the Definitive Certificates. Neither the
Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall be liable for any actions
taken by the Depository or its nominee, including, without limitation, any delay
in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be
protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive
Certificates all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be
performed by the Depositor in connection with the issuance of the Definitive
Certificates pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall be deemed to be imposed upon
and performed by the Trustee, and the Trustee and the Master Servicer shall
recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders
hereunder. Any Class B Certificate issued as a Definitive Certificate shall be
in the form of Exhibit B-2-A hereto.
Unless the Trustee determines otherwise in accordance with
applicable law and the rules and procedures of, or applicable to, the
Depository, transfers of a beneficial interest in the Class B Certificates to a
"qualified institutional buyer" as defined under Rule 144A may only be
effectuated by means of an "SRO Rule 144A System" approved for such purpose by
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
No Ownership Interest in a Temporary Regulation S Global Class B
Certificate or Permanent Regulation S Global Class B Certificate may at any time
be transferred to a transferee that takes delivery in the form of a Definitive
Certificate.
116
(f) Each of the Certificates is intended to be a "security"
governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State
of New York and any other applicable jurisdiction, to the extent that any of
such laws may be applicable.
Section 10.04. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
(b) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at one of the offices or
agencies to be appointed by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of
Section 8.12 a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration
of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein
provided. The Trustee is initially appointed Certificate Registrar for the
purpose of registering Certificates and transfers and exchanges of Certificates
as herein provided. The Certificate Registrar, or the Trustee, shall provide the
Master Servicer with a certified list of Certificateholders as of each Record
Date prior to the related Determination Date.
(d) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any
Certificate at any office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose
pursuant to Section 8.12 and, in the case of any Class SB or R Certificate, upon
satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, the Trustee shall execute and
the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of a like
Class and aggregate Percentage Interest.
(f) At the option of the Certificateholders, Certificates may be
exchanged for other Certificates of authorized denominations of a like Class and
aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of the Certificates to be
exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any Certificates are so
surrendered for exchange the Trustee shall execute and the Certificate Registrar
shall authenticate and deliver the Certificates of such Class which the
Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate
presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the
Trustee or the Certificate Registrar) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by
a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing.
(h) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of a Class SB
or Class R Certificate shall be made unless such transfer, sale, pledge or other
disposition is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and any applicable state securities laws
or is made in accordance with said Act and laws. Except as otherwise provided in
this Section 5.02(d), in the event that a transfer of a Class SB or Class R
Certificate is to be made, (i) unless the Depositor directs the Trustee
otherwise, the Trustee shall require a written Opinion of Counsel acceptable to
and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Depositor that
such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable
exemption and the basis therefor, from said Act and laws or is being made
pursuant to said Act and laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense
of the Trustee, the Trust Fund, the Depositor or the Master Servicer, and (ii)
the Trustee shall require the transferee to execute a representation letter,
substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto, and the Trustee shall require the
transferor to execute a representation letter, substantially in the form of
Exhibit J hereto, each acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to
the Depositor and the Trustee certifying to the Depositor and the Trustee the
facts surrounding such transfer, which representation letters shall not be an
expense of the Trustee, the Trust Fund, the Depositor or the Master Servicer. In
lieu of the requirements set forth in the preceding sentence, transfers of Class
SB or Class R Certificates may
117
be made in accordance with this Section 5.02(d) if the prospective transferee of
such a Certificate provides the Trustee and the Master Servicer with an
investment letter substantially in the form of Exhibit N attached hereto, which
investment letter shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Depositor, or the
Master Servicer, and which investment letter states that, among other things,
such transferee (i) is a "qualified institutional buyer" as defined under Rule
144A, acting for its own account or the accounts of other "qualified
institutional buyers" as defined under Rule 144A, and (ii) is aware that the
proposed transferor intends to rely on the exemption from registration
requirements under the 1933 Act provided by Rule 144A. The Holder of a Class SB
or Class R Certificate desiring to effect any transfer, sale, pledge or other
disposition shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Registrar against any
liability that may result if the transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is
not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws and
this Agreement.
(j) (i) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of a Class
B Certificate shall be made unless such transfer, sale, pledge or other
disposition is exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, and
any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with said Act and
laws.
(ii) Class B Certificates sold to "qualified institutional buyers" as
defined in and in reliance on Rule 144A under the 1933 Act shall be represented
by one or more Rule 144A Global Class B Certificates. Class B Certificates sold
in offshore transactions to "qualified institutional buyers" as defined in Rule
144A under the 1933 Act and in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act
shall be represented initially by Temporary Regulation S Global Class B
Certificates.
(iii) The Temporary Regulation S Global Class B Certificates shall be
exchanged on the later of (i) 40 days after the later of the Closing Date (ii)
the date on which the requisite certifications are due to and provided to the
Trustee (the later of clauses (i) and (ii), the "Exchange Date") for Permanent
Regulation S Global Class B Certificates. Regulation S Global Class B
Certificates shall be issued in registered form, without coupons, and deposited
upon the order of the Transferor with the Trustee as custodian for and
registered in the name of a nominee of the Depository for credit to the account
of the depositaries for Euroclear and Clearstream.
(iv) A Certificate Owner holding an interest in a Temporary Regulation S
Global Class B Certificate may receive payments in respect of the Certificates
on the Temporary Regulation S Global Class B Certificate only after the
delivery, to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, of a written
certification substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit Q, and upon
delivery by Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, to the Trustee and
Certificate Registrar of a certification or certifications substantially in the
form set forth in Exhibit R. The delivery by a Certificate Owner of the
certification referred to above shall constitute its irrevocable instruction to
Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, to arrange for the exchange of the
Certificate Owner's interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Class B
Certificate for a beneficial interest in the Permanent Regulation S Global Class
B Certificate after the Exchange Date in accordance with paragraph (v) below.
(v) After (i) the Exchange Date and (ii) receipt by the Certificate
Registrar of written instructions from Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may
be, directing the Certificate Registrar to credit or cause to be credited to
either Euroclear's or Clearstream's, as the case may be, Depository's account a
beneficial interest in the Permanent Regulation S Global Class B Certificate
118
in a principal amount not greater than that of the beneficial interest in the
Temporary Regulation S Global Class B Certificate, the Certificate Registrar
shall instruct the Depository to reduce the principal amount of the Temporary
Regulation S Global Class B Certificate and increase the principal amount of the
Permanent Regulation S Global Class B Certificate, by the principal amount of
the beneficial interest in the Temporary Regulation S Global Class B Certificate
to be so transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of
Euroclear, Clearstream or a Person who has an account with the Depository as the
case may be, a beneficial interest in the Permanent Regulation S Global Class B
Certificate having a Certificate Principal Balance of the Temporary Regulation S
Global Class B that was reduced upon the transfer. Upon return of the entire
principal amount of the Temporary Regulation S Global Class B Certificate to the
Trustee in exchange for beneficial interests in the Permanent Regulation S
Global Class B Certificate, Trustee shall cancel the Temporary Regulation S
Global Class B Certificate by perforation and shall forthwith destroy it.
(vi) For transfer of an interest in a Permanent Regulation S Global Class B
Certificate for an interest in the Rule 144A Global Class B Certificate, if the
Certificateholder of a beneficial interest in an Permanent Regulation S Global
Class B Certificate deposited with the Depository wishes at any time to exchange
its interest in the Permanent Regulation S Global Class B Certificate, or to
transfer its interest in the Permanent Regulation S Global Class B Certificate
to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in
the Rule 144A Global Class B Certificate, the Certificateholder may, subject to
the rules and procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream and the Depository, as the
case may be, give directions for the Certificate Registrar to exchange or cause
the exchange or transfer or cause the transfer of the interest for an equivalent
beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Class B Certificate. Upon receipt by
the Certificate Registrar of instructions from Euroclear or Clearstream or from
the Depository, as the case may be, directing the Certificate Registrar to
credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global
Class B Certificate equal to the Percentage Interest in the Permanent Regulation
S Global Class B Certificate to be exchanged or transferred (such instructions
to contain information regarding the Depository Participant account to be
credited with the increase, and, with respect to an exchange or transfer of an
interest in the Permanent Regulation S Global Class B Certificate, information
regarding the Depository Participant account to be debited with the decrease),
the Certificate Registrar shall instruct the Depository to reduce the Permanent
Regulation S Global Class B Certificate by the aggregate principal amount of the
beneficial interest in the Permanent Regulation S Global Class B Certificate to
be exchanged or transferred, and the Certificate Registrar shall instruct the
Depository, concurrently with the reduction, to increase the principal amount of
the Rule 144A Global Class B Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Principal
Balance of the beneficial interest in the Permanent Regulation S Global Class B
Certificate to be so exchanged or transferred, and to credit or cause to be
credited to the account of the Person specified in the instructions a beneficial
interest in the Rule 144A Global Class B Certificate equal to the reduction in
the Certificate Principal Balance of the Permanent Regulation S Global Class B
Certificate.
(vii) For transfers of an interest in the Rule 144A Global Class B
Certificate for an interest in a Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate, if a
Certificate Owner holding a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Global Class B
Certificate wishes at any time to exchange its interest in the Rule 144A Global
Class B Certificate for an interest in a Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate, or
to transfer its interest in the 144A Book-Entry Certificate to a Person who
wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest in the Regulation S
Book-Entry Certificate, the Certificateholder may, subject to the rules and
procedures of the Depository, give directions for the Certificate Registrar to
exchange or cause the exchange or transfer or cause the transfer of the interest
for an
119
equivalent beneficial interest in the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate. Upon
receipt by the Certificate Registrar of (A) instructions given in accordance
with the Depository's procedures from a Depository Participant directing the
Certificate Registrar to credit or cause to be credited a beneficial interest in
the Regulation S Book-Entry Certificate in an amount equal to the beneficial
interest in the Rule 144A Global Class B Certificate to be exchanged or
transferred, (B) a written order given in accordance with the Depository's
procedures containing information regarding the account of the depositaries for
Euroclear or Clearstream or another Depository Participant, as the case may be,
to be credited with the increase and the name of the account and (C)
certificates in the forms of Exhibits S and T, respectively, given by the
Certificate Owner and the proposed transferee of the interest, the Certificate
Registrar shall instruct the Depository to reduce the Rule 144A Global Class B
Certificate by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in the
Rule 144A Global Class B Certificate to be so exchanged or transferred and the
Certificate Registrar shall instruct the Depository, concurrently with the
reduction, to increase the principal amount of the Regulation S Book-Entry
Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the beneficial
interest in the Rule 144A Global Class B Certificate to be so exchanged or
transferred, and to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person
specified in the instructions a beneficial interest in the Regulation S
Book-Entry Certificate equal to the reduction in the Certificate Principal
Balance of the Rule 144A Global Class B Certificate.
(viii) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 5.02(e), a
Placement Agent for the Class B Certificates may exchange beneficial interests
in the Temporary Regulation S Global Class B Certificate held by it for
interests in the Rule 144A Global Class B Certificate only after delivery by the
Placement Agent of instructions for the exchange substantially in the form of
Exhibit U. Upon receipt of the instructions provided in the preceding sentence,
the Certificate Registrar shall instruct the Depository to reduce the principal
amount of the Temporary Regulation S Global Class B Certificate to be so
transferred and shall instruct the Depository to increase the principal amount
of the Rule 144A Global Class B Certificate and credit or cause to be credited
to the account of the placement agent a beneficial interest in the Rule 144A
Global Class B Certificate having a principal amount equal to the amount by
which the principal amount of the Temporary Regulation S Global Class B
Certificate was reduced upon the transfer pursuant to the instructions provided
in the first sentence of this clause (viii).
(ix) In the event that a transfer of a Class B Certificate which is a
Definitive Certificate is to be made, the Trustee shall require a written
Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the
Trustee and the Depositor that such transfer may be made pursuant to an
exemption, describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from said
Act and laws or is being made pursuant to the 1933 Act, which Opinion of Counsel
shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Trust Fund, the Depositor or the
Master Servicer.
(x) The Holder of a Class B Certificate desiring to effect any transfer,
sale, pledge or other disposition shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the
Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Registrar
against any liability that may result if the transfer, sale, pledge or other
disposition is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement.
(l) In the case of any Class M, Class B, Class SB or Class R
Certificate presented for registration in the name of any Person, either (i) the
Trustee shall require an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and
substance satisfactory to the Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer to
the effect that the purchase or holding of such Class M, Class B, Class SB or
120
Class R Certificate is permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or
result in any non- exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA, or
Section 4975 of the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent
enactments), and will not subject the Trustee, the Depositor or the Master
Servicer to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities
under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in this
Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the
Depositor or the Master Servicer or (ii) the prospective transferee shall be
required to provide the Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer with a
certification to the effect set forth in Exhibit Q (with respect to a Class M or
Class B Certificate) (which certification shall be deemed to have been given by
a Class M or Class B Certificateholder who acquires a Book-Entry Certificate),
Exhibit P (with respect to a Class SB Certificate) or in paragraph fourteen of
Exhibit H-1 (with respect to a Class R Certificate), which the Trustee may rely
upon without further inquiry or investigation, or such other certifications as
the Trustee may deem desirable or necessary in order to establish that such
transferee or the Person in whose name such registration is requested either (a)
is not an employee benefit plan or other plan subject to the prohibited
transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or any Person
(including an insurance company investing its general accounts, an investment
manager, a named fiduciary or a trustee of any such plan) who is using "plan
assets" of any such plan to effect such acquisition or (b) in the case of a
Class M or Class B Certificate, the following conditions are satisfied: (i) such
Transferee is an insurance company, (ii) the source of funds used to purchase or
hold such Certificate (or interest therein) is an "insurance company general
account" (as defined in U.S. Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class
Exemption ("PTCE") 95-60, and (iii) the conditions set forth in Sections I and
III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied (each entity that satisfies this clause
(b), a "Complying Insurance Company").
(n) (i) Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership
Interest in a Class R Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or
acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the
following provisions and to have irrevocably authorized the Trustee or its
designee under clause (iii)(A) below to deliver payments to a Person other than
such Person and to negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause
(iii)(B) below and to execute all instruments of transfer and to do all other
things necessary in connection with any such sale. The rights of each Person
acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate are expressly subject
to the following provisions:
(B) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Class R Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall
promptly notify the Trustee of any change or impending change in
its status as a Permitted Transferee.
(D) In connection with any proposed Transfer of any Ownership
Interest in a Class R Certificate, the Trustee shall require
delivery to it, and shall not register the Transfer of any Class
R Certificate until its receipt of, (I) an affidavit and
agreement (a "Transfer Affidavit and Agreement," in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit H-1) from the proposed Transferee, in
form and substance satisfactory to the Master Servicer,
representing and warranting, among other things, that it is a
Permitted Transferee, that it is not acquiring its Ownership
Interest in the Class R Certificate that is the subject of the
proposed Transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person
who is
121
not a Permitted Transferee, that for so long as it retains its
Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate, it will endeavor to
remain a Permitted Transferee, and that it has reviewed the
provisions of this Section 5.02(g) and agrees to be bound by
them, and (II) a certificate, in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit H-2, from the Holder wishing to transfer the Class R
Certificate, in form and substance satisfactory to the Master
Servicer, representing and warranting, among other things, that
no purpose of the proposed Transfer is to impede the assessment
or collection of tax.
(F) Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transfer Affidavit and
Agreement by a proposed Transferee under clause (B) above, if a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee who is assigned to this
Agreement has actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is
not a Permitted Transferee, no Transfer of an Ownership Interest
in a Class R Certificate to such proposed Transferee shall be
effected.
(H) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Class R Certificate shall agree (x) to require a Transfer
Affidavit and Agreement from any other Person to whom such Person
attempts to transfer its Ownership Interest in a Class R
Certificate and (y) not to transfer its Ownership Interest unless
it provides a certificate to the Trustee in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit H-2.
(J) Each Person holding or acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Class
R Certificate, by purchasing an Ownership Interest in such
Certificate, agrees to give the Trustee written notice that it is
a "pass-through interest holder" within the meaning of Temporary
Treasury Regulations Section 1.67-3T(a)(2)(i)(A) immediately upon
acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate, if it
is, or is holding an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate
on behalf of, a "pass-through interest holder."
(ii) The Trustee will register the Transfer of any Class R
Certificate only if it shall have received the Transfer Affidavit and
Agreement, a certificate of the Holder requesting such transfer in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit H-2 and all of such other documents as
shall have been reasonably required by the Trustee as a condition to
such registration. Transfers of the Class R Certificates to Non-United
States Persons and Disqualified Organizations (as defined in Section
860E(e)(5) of the Code) are prohibited.
(B) If any Disqualified Organization shall
become a holder of a Class R Certificate,
then the last preceding Permitted Transferee
shall be restored, to the extent permitted
by law, to all rights and obligations as
Holder thereof retroactive to the date of
registration of such Transfer of such Class
R
122
Certificate. If a Non-United States Person
shall become a holder of a Class R
Certificate, then the last preceding United
States Person shall be restored, to the
extent permitted by law, to all rights and
obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to
the date of registration of such Transfer of
such Class R Certificate. If a transfer of a
Class R Certificate is disregarded pursuant
to the provisions of Treasury Regulations
Section 1.860E-1 or Section 1.860G-3, then
the last preceding Permitted Transferee
shall be restored, to the extent permitted
by law, to all rights and obligations as
Holder thereof retroactive to the date of
registration of such Transfer of such Class
R Certificate. The Trustee shall be under no
liability to any Person for any registration
of Transfer of a Class R Certificate that is
in fact not permitted by this Section
5.02(g) or for making any payments due on
such Certificate to the holder thereof or
for taking any other action with respect to
such holder under the provisions of this
Agreement.
(D) If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a
Class R Certificate in violation of the restrictions in
this Section 5.02(g) and to the extent that the
retroactive restoration of the rights of the Holder of
such Class R Certificate as described in clause
(iii)(A) above shall be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, then the Master Servicer shall have the
right, without notice to the holder or any prior holder
of such Class R Certificate, to sell such Class R
Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Master
Servicer on such terms as the Master Servicer may
choose. Such purported Transferee shall promptly
endorse and deliver each Class R Certificate in
accordance with the instructions of the Master
Servicer. Such purchaser may be the Master Servicer
itself or any Affiliate of the Master Servicer. The
proceeds of such sale, net of the commissions (which
may include commissions payable to the Master Servicer
or its Affiliates), expenses and taxes due, if any,
will be remitted by the Master Servicer to such
purported Transferee. The terms and conditions of any
sale under this clause (iii)(B) shall be determined in
the sole discretion of the Master Servicer, and the
Master Servicer shall not be liable to any Person
having an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate
as a result of its exercise of such discretion.
(iv) The Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, shall
make available, upon written request from the Trustee, all information
necessary to compute any tax imposed (A) as a result of the Transfer of
an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate to any Person who is a
Disqualified Organization, including the information regarding "excess
inclusions" of such Class R Certificates required to be provided to the
Internal Revenue Service and certain Persons as described in Treasury
Regulations Sections 1.860D- 1(b)(5) and 1.860E-2(a)(5), and (B) as a
result of any regulated investment company, real
123
estate investment trust, common trust fund, partnership, trust, estate
or organization described in Section 1381 of the Code that holds an
Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate having as among its record
holders at any time any Person who is a Disqualified Organization.
Reasonable compensation for providing such information may be required
by the Master Servicer from such Person.
(vi) The provisions of this Section 5.02(g) set forth
prior to this clause (v) may be modified, added to or eliminated,
provided that there shall have been delivered to the Trustee the
following:
(B) Written notification from each Rating Agency to the
effect that the modification, addition to or
elimination of such provisions will not cause such
Rating Agency to downgrade its then-current ratings, if
any, of the Class A, Class M or Class B Certificates
below the lower of the then-current rating or the
rating assigned to such Certificates as of the Closing
Date by such Rating Agency; and
(D) a certificate of the Master Servicer stating that the
Master Servicer has received an Opinion of Counsel, in
form and substance satisfactory to the Master Servicer,
to the effect that such modification, addition to or
absence of such provisions will not cause any of REMIC
I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC IV to cease to qualify
as a REMIC and will not cause (x) any of REMIC I or
REMIC III to be subject to an entity- level tax caused
by the Transfer of any Class R Certificate to a Person
that is a Disqualified Organization or (y) a
Certificateholder or another Person to be subject to a
REMIC- related tax caused by the Transfer of a Class R
Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted
Transferee.
(p) No service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange
of Certificates of any Class, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
(r) All Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be
destroyed by the Certificate Registrar.
Section 10.06. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen
Certificates.
If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the
Certificate Registrar, or the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar receive
evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of
them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee or the Certificate
Registrar that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the
Trustee shall execute and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and
deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor, Class and Percentage
Interest but bearing a number not contemporaneously
124
outstanding. Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the
Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other
expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar) connected therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to
this Section shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in
the Trust Fund, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or
destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.
Section 10.08. Persons Deemed Owners.
Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of
transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or
the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is
registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving
distributions pursuant to Section 4.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever,
except as and to the extent provided in the definition of "Certificateholder"
and in Section 4.08, and neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee, the Certificate Registrar nor any agent of the Depositor, the Master
Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar shall be affected by notice
to the contrary except as provided in Section 5.02(g).
Section 10.10. Appointment of Paying Agent.
The Trustee may appoint a Paying Agent for the purpose of making
distributions to Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.02. In the event of
any such appointment, on or prior to each Distribution Date the Master Servicer
on behalf of the Trustee shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Paying
Agent a sum sufficient to make the payments to Certificateholders in the amounts
and in the manner provided for in Section 4.02 and 4.03, such sum to be held in
trust for the benefit of Certificateholders.
The Trustee shall cause each Paying Agent to execute and deliver
to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the
Trustee that such Paying Agent will hold all sums held by it for the payment to
Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders entitled
thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Certificateholders. Any sums so
held by such Paying Agent shall be held only in Eligible Accounts to the extent
such sums are not distributed to the Certificateholders on the date of receipt
by such Paying Agent.

the Master Servicer.
The Depositor and the Master Servicer shall each be liable in
accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically and
respectively imposed upon and undertaken by the Depositor and the Master
Servicer herein. By way of illustration and not limitation, the Depositor is not
liable for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans, nor is it
obligated by Section 7.01 or 10.01 to assume any obligations of the Master
Servicer or to appoint a designee to assume such obligations, nor is it liable
for any other obligation hereunder that it may, but is not obligated to, assume
unless it elects to assume such obligation in accordance herewith.
Section 12.04. Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor or
the Master Servicer; Assignment of Rights and
Delegation of Duties by Master Servicer.
(b) The Depositor and the Master Servicer will each keep in full
effect its existence, rights and franchises as a corporation under the laws of
the state of its incorporation, and will each obtain and preserve its
qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in
which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement, the Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans
and to perform its respective duties under this Agreement.
(d) Any Person into which the Depositor or the Master Servicer
may be merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger or
consolidation to which the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be a party, or
any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor or the Master Servicer,
shall be the successor of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case may
be, hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act
on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person to
the Master Servicer shall be qualified to service mortgage loans on behalf of
Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac; and provided further that each Rating Agency's
ratings, if any, of the Class A, Class M or Class B Certificates in effect
immediately prior to such merger or consolidation will not be qualified, reduced
or withdrawn as a result thereof (as evidenced by a letter to such effect from
each Rating Agency).
(f) Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 6.02 and
Section 6.04 to the contrary, the Master Servicer may assign its rights and
delegate its duties and obligations under this Agreement; provided that the
Person accepting such assignment or delegation shall be a Person which is
qualified to service mortgage loans on behalf of Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac, is
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Depositor, is willing to service
the Mortgage Loans and executes and delivers to the Depositor and the Trustee an
agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and
the Trustee, which contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual
performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or
observed by the Master Servicer under this Agreement; provided further that each
Rating Agency's
126
rating of the Classes of Certificates that have been rated in effect immediately
prior to such assignment and delegation will not be qualified, reduced or
withdrawn as a result of such assignment and delegation (as evidenced by a
letter to such effect from each Rating Agency). In the case of any such
assignment and delegation, the Master Servicer shall be released from its
obligations under this Agreement, except that the Master Servicer shall remain
liable for all liabilities and obligations incurred by it as Master Servicer
hereunder prior to the satisfaction of the conditions to such assignment and
delegation set forth in the next preceding sentence.
Section 12.06. Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and Others.
Neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor any of the
directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor or the Master Servicer
shall be under any liability to the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders for any
action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith
pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that
this provision shall not protect the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any such
Person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein or any
liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless
disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Master
Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the
Master Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie
properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising
hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be indemnified
by the Trust Fund and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense
incurred in connection with any legal action relating to this Agreement or the
Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense related to any specific
Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense
shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) and any loss,
liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
gross negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless
disregard of obligations and duties hereunder.
Neither the Depositor nor the Master Servicer shall be under any
obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal or administrative action,
proceeding, hearing or examination that is not incidental to its respective
duties under this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any
expense or liability; provided, however, that the Depositor or the Master
Servicer may in its discretion undertake any such action, proceeding, hearing or
examination that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect to this Agreement
and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the
Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of
such action, proceeding, hearing or examination and any liability resulting
therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Fund, and the
Depositor and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor
out of amounts attributable to the Mortgage Loans on deposit in the Custodial
Account as provided by Section 3.10 and, on the Distribution Date(s) following
such reimbursement, the aggregate of such expenses and costs shall be allocated
in reduction of the Accrued Certificate Interest on each Class entitled thereto
in the same manner as if such expenses and costs constituted a Prepayment
Interest Shortfall.
Section 12.08. Depositor and Master Servicer Not to Resign.
Subject to the provisions of Section 6.02, neither the Depositor
nor the Master Servicer shall resign from its respective obligations and duties
hereby imposed on it except upon
127
determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under
applicable law. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the
Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (at
the expense of the resigning party) to such effect delivered to the Trustee. No
such resignation by the Master Servicer shall become effective until the Trustee
or a successor servicer shall have assumed the Master Servicer's
responsibilities and obligations in accordance with Section 7.02.

any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of
any administrative or governmental body):
(ii) the Master Servicer shall fail to distribute or cause
to be distributed to Holders of Certificates of any
Class any distribution required to be made under the
terms of the Certificates of such Class and this
Agreement and, in either case, such failure shall
continue unremedied for a period of 5 days after the
date upon which written notice of such failure,
requiring such failure to be remedied, shall have been
given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee or the
Depositor or to the Master Servicer, the Depositor and
the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates of such
Class evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating not
less than 25%; or
(iv) the Master Servicer shall fail to observe or perform in
any material respect any other of the covenants or
agreements on the part of the Master Servicer contained
in the Certificates of any Class or in this Agreement
and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period
of 30 days (except that such number of days shall be 15
in the case of a failure to pay the premium for any
Required Insurance Policy) after the date on which
written notice of such failure, requiring the same to
be remedied, shall have been given to the Master
Servicer by the Trustee or the Depositor, or to the
Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee by the
Holders of Certificates of any Class evidencing, as to
such Class, Percentage Interests aggregating not less
than 25%; or
(vi) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory
authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an
involuntary case under any present or future federal or
state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or
appointing a conservator or receiver or liquidator in
any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of
assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for
the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall
have been entered against the Master Servicer and such
decree or order shall have remained in force
undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days; or
129
(viii) the Master Servicer shall consent to the appointment
of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any
insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets
and liabilities, or similar proceedings of, or relating
to, the Master Servicer or of, or relating to, all or
substantially all of the property of the Master
Servicer; or
(x) the Master Servicer shall admit in writing its
inability to pay its debts generally as they become
due, file a petition to take advantage of, or commence
a voluntary case under, any applicable insolvency or
reorganization statute, make an assignment for the
benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend
payment of its obligations; or
(xii)the Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee pursuant
to Section 4.04(b) that it is unable to deposit in the
Certificate Account an amount equal to the Advance.
If an Event of Default described in clauses (i)-(v) of this
Section shall occur, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such
Event of Default shall not have been remedied, either the Depositor or the
Trustee shall at the direction of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at
least 51% of the Voting Rights, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer (and
to the Depositor if given by the Trustee or to the Trustee if given by the
Depositor), terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer
under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof,
other than its rights as a Certificateholder hereunder; provided, however, the
successor to the Master Servicer appointed pursuant to Section 7.02 shall have
accepted the duties of Master Servicer effective upon the resignation of the
Master Servicer. If an Event of Default described in clause (vi) hereof shall
occur, the Trustee shall, by notice to the Master Servicer and the Depositor,
immediately terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer
under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof,
other than its rights as a Certificateholder hereunder as provided in Section
4.04(b). On or after the receipt by the Master Servicer of such written notice,
all authority and power of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, whether
with respect to the Certificates (other than as a Holder thereof) or the
Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall subject to Section 7.02 pass to and be vested
in the Trustee or the Trustee's designee appointed pursuant to Section 7.02;
and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to
execute and deliver, on behalf of the Master Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or
otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish
all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such
notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or
assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The Master
Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of
the Master Servicer's responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without
limitation, the transfer to the Trustee or its designee for administration by it
of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited to the Custodial Account
or the Certificate Account or thereafter be received with respect to the
Mortgage Loans. No such termination shall release the Master Servicer for any
liability that it would otherwise have hereunder for any act or omission prior
to the effective time of such termination.
Notwithstanding any termination of the activities of Residential
Funding in its capacity as Master Servicer hereunder, Residential Funding shall
be entitled to receive, out of any late collection of a Monthly Payment on a
Mortgage Loan which was due prior to the notice
130
terminating Residential Funding's rights and obligations as Master Servicer
hereunder and received after such notice, that portion to which Residential
Funding would have been entitled pursuant to Sections 3.10(a)(ii), (vi) and
(vii) as well as its Servicing Fee in respect thereof, and any other amounts
payable to Residential Funding hereunder the entitlement to which arose prior to
the termination of its activities hereunder. Upon the termination of Residential
Funding as Master Servicer hereunder the Depositor shall deliver to the Trustee
a copy of the Program Guide.
Section 14.04. Trustee or Depositor to Act; Appointment of Successor.
(b) On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice
of termination pursuant to Section 7.01 or resigns in accordance with Section
6.04, the Trustee or, upon notice to the Depositor and with the Depositor's
consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) a designee (which meets the
standards set forth below) of the Trustee, shall be the successor in all
respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity as servicer under this Agreement
and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to
all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the
Master Servicer (except for the responsibilities, duties and liabilities
contained in Sections 2.02 and 2.03(a), excluding the duty to notify related
Subservicers as set forth in such Sections, and its obligations to deposit
amounts in respect of losses incurred prior to such notice or termination on the
investment of funds in the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account pursuant
to Sections 3.07(c) and 4.01(b) by the terms and provisions hereof); provided,
however, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by
the preceding Master Servicer's failure to provide information required by
Section 4.04 shall not be considered a default by the Trustee hereunder. As
compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to all funds relating to
the Mortgage Loans which the Master Servicer would have been entitled to charge
to the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account if the Master Servicer had
continued to act hereunder and, in addition, shall be entitled to the income
from any Permitted Investments made with amounts attributable to the Mortgage
Loans held in the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account. If the Trustee
has become the successor to the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 6.04
or Section 7.01, then notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be
unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act, appoint, or petition a
court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established housing and home
finance institution, which is also a Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac-approved mortgage
servicing institution, having a net worth of not less than $10,000,000 as the
successor to the Master Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part
of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder.
Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer hereunder, the Trustee
shall become successor to the Master Servicer and shall act in such capacity as
hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the
Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of
payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided,
however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the
initial Master Servicer hereunder. The Depositor, the Trustee, the Custodian and
such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall
be necessary to effectuate any such succession. The Servicing Fee for any
successor Master Servicer appointed pursuant to this Section 7.02 will be
lowered with respect to those Mortgage Loans, if any, where the Subservicing Fee
accrues at a rate of less than 0.50% per annum in the event that the successor
Master Servicer is not servicing such Mortgage Loans directly and it is
necessary to raise the related Subservicing Fee to a rate of 0.50% per annum in
order to hire a Subservicer with respect to such Mortgage Loans.
(d) In connection with the termination or resignation of the Master
Servicer hereunder, either (i) the successor Master Servicer, including the
Trustee if the Trustee is
131
acting as successor Master Servicer, shall represent and warrant that it is a
member of MERS in good standing and shall agree to comply in all material
respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the servicing
of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with MERS, in which case the
predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Master Servicer
in causing MERS to revise its records to reflect the transfer of servicing to
the successor Master Servicer as necessary under MERS' rules and regulations, or
(ii) the predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Master
Servicer in causing MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of Mortgage in
recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the Trustee and to execute
and deliver such other notices, documents and other instruments as may be
necessary or desirable to effect a transfer of such Mortgage Loan or servicing
of such Mortgage Loan on the MERS(R) System to the successor Master Servicer.
The predecessor Master Servicer shall file or cause to be filed any such
assignment in the appropriate recording office. The predecessor Master Servicer
shall bear any and all fees of MERS, costs of preparing any assignments of
Mortgage, and fees and costs of filing any assignments of Mortgage that may be
required under this subsection (b). The successor Master Servicer shall cause
such assignment to be delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian promptly upon
receipt of the original with evidence of recording thereon or a copy certified
by the public recording office in which such assignment was recorded.
Section 14.06. Notification to Certificateholders.
(b) Upon any such termination or appointment of a successor to
the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the
Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate
Register.
(d) Within 60 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default,
the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Certificates notice of each
such Event of Default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such Event of
Default shall have been cured or waived as provided in Section 7.04 hereof.
Section 14.08. Waiver of Events of Default.
The Holders representing at least 66% of the Voting Rights of
Certificates affected by a default or Event of Default hereunder may waive any
default or Event of Default; provided, however, that (a) a default or Event of
Default under clause (i) of Section 7.01 may be waived with the written consent
of the Holders of Certificates affected by such default or Event of Default and
(b) no waiver pursuant to this Section 7.04 shall affect the Holders of
Certificates in the manner set forth in Section 11.01(b)(i), (ii) or (iii). Upon
any such waiver of a default or Event of Default by the Holders representing the
requisite percentage of Voting Rights of Certificates affected by such default
or Event of Default, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, such
default or Event of Default shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have
been remedied for every purpose hereunder. No such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent
thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

ARTICLE XV
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE
Section 16.02. Duties of Trustee.
(b) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default
and after the curing of all Events of Default which may have occurred,
undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set
forth in this Agreement. In case an Event of Default has occurred (which has not
been cured or waived), the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers
vested in it by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in
their exercise as a prudent investor would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such investor's own affairs.
(d) The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates,
statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished
to the Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they
conform to the requirements of this Agreement. The Trustee shall notify the
Certificateholders of any such documents which do not materially conform to the
requirements of this Agreement in the event that the Trustee, after so
requesting, does not receive satisfactorily corrected documents.
The Trustee shall forward or cause to be forwarded in a timely
fashion the notices, reports and statements required to be forwarded by the
Trustee pursuant to Sections 4.03, 4.06, 7.03, and 10.01. The Trustee shall
furnish in a timely fashion to the Master Servicer such information as the
Master Servicer may reasonably request from time to time for the Master Servicer
to fulfill its duties as set forth in this Agreement. The Trustee covenants and
agrees that it shall perform its obligations hereunder in a manner so as to
maintain the status of each of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III and REMIC IV as a
REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and to prevent the imposition of any federal,
state or local income, prohibited transaction (except as provided in Section
3.22(d) herein), contribution or other tax on the Trust Fund to the extent that
maintaining such status and avoiding such taxes are reasonably within the
control of the Trustee and are reasonably within the scope of its duties under
this Agreement.
(f) No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve
the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent
failure to act or its own willful misconduct; provided, however, that:
(ii) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, and
after the curing or waiver of all such Events of Default which may have
occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined
solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall
not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations
as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or
obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee and,
in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may
conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness
of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions
furnished to the Trustee by the Depositor or the Master Servicer and
which on their
133
face, do not contradict the requirements of this Agreement;
(iv) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for an
error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or
Responsible Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the
Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;
(vi) The Trustee shall not be personally liable with
respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in
good faith in accordance with the direction of the Certificateholders
holding Certificates which evidence, Percentage Interests aggregating
not less than 25% of the affected classes as to the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the
Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee,
under this Agreement;
(viii) The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of
any default (other than a default in payment to the Trustee) specified
in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 or an Event of Default under
clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) of Section 7.01 unless a Responsible Officer
of the Trustee assigned to and working in the Corporate Trust Office
obtains actual knowledge of such failure or event or the Trustee
receives written notice of such failure or event at its Corporate Trust
Office from the Master Servicer, the Depositor or any Certificateholder;
and
(x) Except to the extent provided in Section 7.02, no
provision in this Agreement shall require the Trustee to expend or risk
its own funds (including, without limitation, the making of any Advance)
or otherwise incur any personal financial liability in the performance
of any of its duties as Trustee hereunder, or in the exercise of any of
its rights or powers, if the Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for
believing that repayment of funds or adequate indemnity against such
risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.
(h) The Trustee shall timely pay, from its own funds, the amount
of any and all federal, state and local taxes imposed on the Trust Fund or its
assets or transactions including, without limitation, (A) "prohibited
transaction" penalty taxes as defined in Section 860F of the Code, if, when and
as the same shall be due and payable, (B) any tax on contributions to a REMIC
after the Closing Date imposed by Section 860G(d) of the Code and (C) any tax on
"net income from foreclosure property" as defined in Section 860G(c) of the
Code, but only if such taxes arise out of a breach by the Trustee of its
obligations hereunder, which breach constitutes negligence or willful misconduct
of the Trustee.
Section 16.04. Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.
(b) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
(ii) The Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting
or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officers' Certificate,
certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or
other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been
signed or presented by the proper party or parties;
(iv) The Trustee may consult with counsel and any Opinion of
134
Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in
respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in
good faith and in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel;
(vi) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise
any of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to
institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation
hereto at the request, order or direction of any of the
Certificateholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless
such Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable
security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which
may be incurred therein or thereby; nothing contained herein shall,
however, relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of
an Event of Default (which has not been cured), to exercise such of the
rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the same
degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent investor would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such
investor's own affairs;
(viii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any
action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it
to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred
upon it by this Agreement;
(x) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default
hereunder and after the curing of all Events of Default which may have
occurred, the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into
the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval,
bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing so to do by
the Holders of Certificates of any Class evidencing, as to such Class,
Percentage Interests, aggregating not less than 50%; provided, however,
that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the
costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making
of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably
assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of
this Agreement, the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against
such expense or liability as a condition to so proceeding. The
reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by the Master
Servicer, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing,
and otherwise by the Certificateholder requesting the investigation;
(xii) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers
hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or
through agents or attorneys provided that the Trustee shall remain
liable for any acts of such agents or attorneys; and
(xiv) To the extent authorized under the Code and the
regulations promulgated thereunder, each Holder of a Class R Certificate
hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Trustee to be its
attorney-in-fact for purposes of signing any Tax Returns required to be
filed on behalf of the Trust Fund. The Trustee shall sign on behalf of
the Trust Fund and deliver to the Master Servicer in a timely manner any
Tax Returns prepared by or on behalf of the Master Servicer that the
Trustee is required to sign as determined by the Master Servicer
pursuant to applicable federal, state or local tax laws, provided that
the Master Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee for signing any such Tax
Returns that contain errors or omissions.
(d) Following the issuance of the Certificates (and except
as provided for
135
in Section 3.22(d)), the Trustee shall not accept any contribution of assets to
the Trust Fund unless it shall have obtained or been furnished with an Opinion
of Counsel to the effect that such contribution will not (i) cause any of REMIC
I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC IV to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time
that any Certificates are outstanding or (ii) cause the Trust Fund to be subject
to any federal tax as a result of such contribution (including the imposition of
any federal tax on "prohibited transactions" imposed under Section 860F(a) of
the Code).
Section 16.06. Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or
Mortgage Loans.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than
the execution of the Certificates and relating to the acceptance and receipt of
the Mortgage Loans) shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor or the
Master Servicer as the case may be, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility
for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity
or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the Certificates (except that the
Certificates shall be duly and validly executed and authenticated by it as
Certificate Registrar) or of any Mortgage Loan or related document, or of MERS
or the MERS(R) System. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Trustee shall
not be accountable for the use or application by the Depositor or the Master
Servicer of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or
for the use or application of any funds paid to the Depositor or the Master
Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the
Custodial Account or the Certificate Account by the Depositor or the Master
Servicer.
Section 16.08. Trustee May Own Certificates.
The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become
the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights it would have if it
were not Trustee.
Section 16.10. Master Servicer to Pay Trustee's Fees and
Expenses; Indemnification.
(b) The Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the
Trustee and any co-trustee from time to time, and the Trustee and any co-trustee
shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation (which shall not be limited by any
provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust)
for all services rendered by each of them in the execution of the trusts hereby
created and in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties
hereunder of the Trustee and any co-trustee, and the Master Servicer will pay or
reimburse the Trustee and any co- trustee upon request for all reasonable
expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee or any
co-trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement (including
the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel
and of all persons not regularly in its employ, and the expenses incurred by the
Trustee or any co-trustee in connection with the appointment of an office or
agency pursuant to Section 8.12) except any such expense, disbursement or
advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith.
(d) The Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trustee for, and
to hold the Trustee harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred
without negligence or willful misconduct on its part, arising out of, or in
connection with, the acceptance and administration of the Trust Fund, including
the costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of
defending itself against any claim in connection with the exercise or
performance of any of its powers or duties under this Agreement, provided that:
136
(ii) with respect to any such claim, the Trustee shall
have given the Master Servicer written notice thereof promptly after the
Trustee shall have actual knowledge thereof;
(iv) while maintaining control over its own defense, the
Trustee shall cooperate and consult fully with the Master Servicer in
preparing such defense; and
(vi) notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, the Master Servicer shall not be liable for settlement of any
claim by the Trustee entered into without the prior consent of the
Master Servicer which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
No termination of this Agreement shall affect the obligations created by this
Section 8.05(b) of the Master Servicer to indemnify the Trustee under the
conditions and to the extent set forth herein.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification provided by
the Master Servicer in this Section 8.05(b) shall not pertain to any loss,
liability or expense of the Trustee, including the costs and expenses of
defending itself against any claim, incurred in connection with any actions
taken by the Trustee at the direction of Certificateholders pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement.
Section 16.12. Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.
The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a national banking
association or a New York banking corporation having its principal office in a
state and city acceptable to the Depositor and organized and doing business
under the laws of such state or the United States of America, authorized under
such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and
surplus of at least $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authority. If such corporation or national banking association
publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the
purposes of this Section the combined capital and surplus of such corporation
shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most
recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall
cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the
Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in
Section 8.07.
Section 16.14. Resignation and Removal of the Trustee.
(b) The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the
trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Depositor and the
Master Servicer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall
promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one
copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one
copy to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so
appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such
notice of resignation then the resigning Trustee may petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.
(d) If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after
written request therefor by the Depositor, or if at any time the Trustee shall
become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or
137
insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed,
or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its
property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, then the Depositor may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor
trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall
be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee. In
addition, in the event that the Depositor determines that the Trustee has failed
(i) to distribute or cause to be distributed to Certificateholders any amount
required to be distributed hereunder, if such amount is held by the Trustee or
its Paying Agent (other than the Master Servicer or the Depositor) for
distribution or (ii) to otherwise observe or perform in any material respect any
of its covenants, agreements or obligations hereunder, and such failure shall
continue unremedied for a period of 5 days (in respect of clause (i) above) or
30 days (in respect of clause (ii) above) after the date on which written notice
of such failure, requiring that the same be remedied, shall have been given to
the Trustee by the Depositor, then the Depositor may remove the Trustee and
appoint a successor trustee by written instrument delivered as provided in the
preceding sentence. In connection with the appointment of a successor trustee
pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Depositor shall, on or before the date
on which any such appointment becomes effective, obtain from each Rating Agency
written confirmation that the appointment of any such successor trustee will not
result in the reduction of the ratings on any class of the Certificates below
the lesser of the then current or original ratings on such Certificates.
(f) The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the
Voting Rights may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee
by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by such Holders or
their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which instruments
shall be delivered to the Depositor, one complete set to the Trustee so removed
and one complete set to the successor so appointed.
(h) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of
a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall
become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as
provided in Section 8.08.
Section 16.16. Successor Trustee.
(b) Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor and to its predecessor
trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the
resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and
such successor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee,
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all
the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with
the like effect as if originally named as trustee herein. The predecessor
trustee shall deliver to the successor trustee all Mortgage Files and related
documents and statements held by it hereunder (other than any Mortgage Files at
the time held by a Custodian, which shall become the agent of any successor
trustee hereunder), and the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the predecessor
trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as
may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming
in the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.
(d) No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in
this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall
be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06.
138
(f) Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as
provided in this Section, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of
such trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as
shown in the Certificate Register. If the Depositor fails to mail such notice
within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the
successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the
Depositor.
Section 16.18. Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.
Any corporation or national banking association into which the
Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any
corporation or national banking association resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any
corporation or national banking association succeeding to the business of the
Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such
corporation or national banking association shall be eligible under the
provisions of Section 8.06, without the execution or filing of any paper or any
further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding. The Trustee shall mail notice of any such merger or
consolidation to the Certificateholders at their address as shown in the
Certificate Register.
Section 16.20. Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for
the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any
part of the Trust Fund or property securing the same may at the time be located,
the Master Servicer and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and
shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons
approved by the Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the
Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the
Trust Fund, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title
to the Trust Fund, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of
this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the
Master Servicer and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the
Master Servicer shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after
the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in case an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make
such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required
to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.06
hereunder and no notice to Holders of Certificates of the appointment of
co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under Section 8.08
hereof.
(d) In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate
trustee pursuant to this Section 8.10 all rights, powers, duties and obligations
conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and
exercised or performed by the Trustee, and such separate trustee or co- trustee
jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which
any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or
as successor to the Master Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent
or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers,
duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust Fund or any
portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by
such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the Trustee.
(f) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee
shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and
co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument
appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to
139
this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee
and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested
with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either
jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to
all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of
this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or
affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with
the Trustee.
(h) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time,
constitute the Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and
authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in
respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee
or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all
of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be
exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor trustee.
Section 16.22. Appointment of Custodians.
The Trustee may, with the consent of the Master Servicer and the
Depositor, appoint one or more Custodians who are not Affiliates of the
Depositor or the Master Servicer to hold all or a portion of the Mortgage Files
as agent for the Trustee, by entering into a Custodial Agreement. Subject to
Article VIII, the Trustee agrees to comply with the terms of each Custodial
Agreement and to enforce the terms and provisions thereof against the Custodian
for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Each Custodian shall be a depository
institution subject to supervision by federal or state authority, shall have a
combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000 and shall be qualified to
do business in the jurisdiction in which it holds any Mortgage File. Each
Custodial Agreement may be amended only as provided in Section 11.01. The
Trustee shall notify the Certificateholders of the appointment of any Custodian
(other than the Custodian appointed as of the Closing Date) pursuant to this
Section 8.11.
Section 16.24. Appointment of Office or Agency.
The Trustee will maintain an office or agency in the City of New
York where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or
exchange. The Trustee initially designates its offices located at 00 Xxxx
Xxxxxx, 0xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 for the purpose of keeping the
Certificate Register. The Trustee will maintain an office at the address stated
in Section 11.05(c) hereof where notices and demands to or upon the Trustee in
respect of this Agreement may be served.

ARTICLE XVII
TERMINATION
Section 18.02. Termination Upon Purchase by the Master
Servicer or Liquidation of All Mortgage Loans.
(b) Subject to Section 9.02, the respective obligations and
responsibilities of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee created
hereby in respect of the Certificates (other than the obligation of the Trustee
to make certain payments after the Final Distribution Date to Certificateholders
and the obligation of the Depositor to send certain notices as hereinafter set
forth) shall terminate upon the last action required to be taken by the Trustee
on the Final Distribution Date pursuant to this Article IX following the earlier
of:
(ii) the later of the final payment or other liquidation
(or any Advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan
remaining in the Trust Fund or the disposition of all property acquired
upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, or
(iv) the purchase by the Master Servicer of all Group I
Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Group I Loan remaining
in the Trust Fund and the purchase by the Master Servicer of all Group
II Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Group II Loan
remaining in the Trust Fund, in each case, at a price equal to 100% of
the unpaid principal balance of each Mortgage Loan (or, if less than
such unpaid principal balance, the fair market value of the related
underlying property of such Mortgage Loan with respect to Mortgage Loans
as to which title has been acquired if such fair market value is less
than such unpaid principal balance) (net of any unreimbursed Advances
attributable to principal) on the day of repurchase, plus accrued
interest thereon at the Net Mortgage Rate (or Modified Net Mortgage Rate
in the case of any Modified Mortgage Loan), to, but not including, the
first day of the month in which such repurchase price is distributed;
provided, however, that in no event shall the trust created hereby
continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last
survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of
the United States to the Court of St. Xxxxx, living on the date hereof;
provided further, that, if the amount due under any Certificate shall
not have been reduced to zero prior to the Maturity Date, the Master
Servicer shall be required to terminate this Agreement in accordance
with this clause (ii); and provided further, that the purchase price set
forth above shall be increased as is necessary, as determined by the
Master Servicer, to avoid disqualification of any of REMIC I, REMIC II,
REMIC III or REMIC IV as a REMIC.
The right of the Master Servicer or the Company to purchase all
the assets of the Trust Fund relating to the Group I Loans, pursuant to clause
(ii) above is conditioned upon the date of such purchase occurring on or after
the Group I Step-Up Date. The right of the Master Servicer or the Company to
purchase all the assets of the Trust Fund relating to the Group II Loans,
pursuant to clause (ii) above is conditioned upon the date of such purchase
occurring on or after the Group II Step-Up Date. If such right is exercised by
the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have been reimbursed
for the full amount of any unreimbursed Advances theretofore made by it with
respect to the Mortgage Loans being purchased. In addition, the Master Servicer
shall provide
141
to the Trustee the certification required by Section 3.15 and the Trustee and
any Custodian shall, promptly following payment of the purchase price, release
to the Master Servicer the Mortgage Files pertaining to the Mortgage Loans being
purchased.
(d) The Master Servicer shall give the Trustee not less than 60
days' prior notice of the Distribution Date on which the Master Servicer
anticipates that the final distribution will be made to Certificateholders
(whether as a result of the exercise by the Master Servicer of its right to
purchase the assets of the Trust Fund or otherwise). Notice of any termination,
specifying the anticipated Final Distribution Date (which shall be a date that
would otherwise be a Distribution Date) upon which the Certificateholders may
surrender their Certificates to the Trustee for payment of the final
distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the Master Servicer
(if it is exercising its right to purchase the assets of the Trust Fund), or by
the Trustee (in any other case) by letter to Certificateholders mailed not
earlier than the 15th day and not later than the 25th day of the month next
preceding the month of such final distribution specifying:
(ii) the anticipated Final Distribution Date upon which
final payment of the Certificates is anticipated to be made upon
presentation and surrender of Certificates at the office or agency of
the Trustee therein designated,
(iv) the amount of any such final payment, if known, and
(vi) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such
Distribution Date is not applicable, and that payment will be made only
upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office or
agency of the Trustee therein specified.
If the Master Servicer is obligated to give notice to Certificateholders as
aforesaid, it shall give such notice to the Certificate Registrar at the time
such notice is given to Certificateholders. In the event such notice is given by
the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall deposit in the Certificate
Account before the Final Distribution Date in immediately available funds an
amount equal to the purchase price for the assets of the Trust Fund computed as
above provided.
The Master Servicer shall provide to the Trustee written notification of
any change to the anticipated Final Distribution Date as soon as practicable. If
the Trust Fund is not terminated on the anticipated Final Distribution Date, for
any reason, the Trustee shall promptly mail notice thereof to each affected
Certificateholder.
In addition to the foregoing, on any Distribution Date on which the
Group I Pool Stated Principal Balance, prior to giving effect to distributions
to be made on such Distribution Date, is less than ten percent of the Group I
Cut-off Date Principal Balance, the Master Servicer shall have the right, at its
option, to purchase the Group I Certificates in whole, but not in part, at a
price equal to the outstanding Certificate Principal Balance of such
Certificates plus the sum of Accrued Certificate Interest thereon for the
related Interest Accrual Period and any previously unpaid Accrued Certificate
Interest, and any unpaid Prepayment Interest Shortfall previously allocated
thereto. If the Master Servicer exercises this right to purchase the outstanding
Group I Certificates, the Master Servicer will promptly terminate the respective
obligations and responsibilities created hereby in respect of the Group I
Certificates pursuant to this Article IX.
In addition to the foregoing, on any Distribution Date on which the
Group II Pool Stated Principal Balance, prior to giving effect to distributions
to be made on such Distribution Date, is less
142
than ten percent of the Group II Cut-off Date Principal Balance, the Master
Servicer shall have the right, at its option, to purchase the Group II
Certificates in whole, but not in part, at a price equal to the outstanding
Certificate Principal Balance of such Certificates plus the sum of Accrued
Certificate Interest thereon for the related Interest Accrual Period and any
previously unpaid Accrued Certificate Interest, and any unpaid Prepayment
Interest Shortfall previously allocated thereto. If the Master Servicer
exercises this right to purchase the outstanding Group II Certificates, the
Master Servicer will promptly terminate the respective obligations and
responsibilities created hereby in respect of the Group II Certificates pursuant
to this Article IX.
(f) Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates by the
Certificateholders, the Trustee shall distribute to the Certificateholders (i)
the amount otherwise distributable on such Distribution Date, if not in
connection with the Master Servicer's election to repurchase, or (ii) if the
Master Servicer elected to so repurchase, an amount determined as follows: with
respect to the Class A, Class M and Class B Certificates, the outstanding
Certificate Principal Balance thereof, plus Accrued Certificate Interest thereon
for the related Interest Accrual Period and any previously unpaid Accrued
Certificate Interest.
(h) In the event that any Certificateholders shall not surrender
their Certificates for final payment and cancellation on or before the Final
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall on such date cause all funds in the
Certificate Account not distributed in final distribution to Certificateholders
to be withdrawn therefrom and credited to the remaining Certificateholders by
depositing such funds in a separate escrow account for the benefit of such
Certificateholders, and the Master Servicer (if it exercised its right to
purchase the assets of the Trust Fund), or the Trustee (in any other case) shall
give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender
their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with
respect thereto. If within six months after the second notice any Certificate
shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall take
appropriate steps as directed by the Master Servicer to contact the remaining
Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and
expenses of maintaining the escrow account and of contacting Certificateholders
shall be paid out of the assets which remain in the escrow account. If within
nine months after the second notice any Certificates shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall pay to the Master Servicer all
amounts distributable to the holders thereof and the Master Servicer shall
thereafter hold such amounts until distributed to such holders. No interest
shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in the
escrow account or by the Master Servicer as a result of such Certificateholder's
failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance
with this Section 9.01 and the Certificateholders shall look only to the Master
Servicer for such payment.
Section 18.04. Additional Termination Requirements.
(b) Each of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III and REMIC IV, as the
case may be, shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional
requirements, unless the Trustee and the Master Servicer have received an
Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the
Trustee) to the effect that the failure of any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III
and REMIC IV, as the case may be, to comply with the requirements of this
Section 9.02 will not (i) result in the imposition on the Trust Fund of taxes on
"prohibited transactions," as described in Section 860F of the Code, or (ii)
cause any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC IV to fail to qualify as a
REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding:
(ii) The Master Servicer shall establish a 90-day
liquidation period
143
for each of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III and REMIC IV, and specify the
first day of such period in a statement attached to the Trust Fund's
final Tax Return pursuant to Treasury regulations Section 1.860F-1. The
Master Servicer also shall satisfy all of the requirements of a
qualified liquidation for each of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III and REMIC
IV, under Section 860F of the Code and the regulations thereunder;
(iv) The Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee at the
commencement of such 90-day liquidation period and, at or prior to the
time of making of the final payment on the Certificates, the Trustee
shall sell or otherwise dispose of all of the remaining assets of the
Trust Fund in accordance with the terms hereof; and
(vi) If the Master Servicer is exercising its right to
purchase the assets of the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer shall, during
the 90-day liquidation period and at or prior to the Final Distribution
Date, purchase all of the assets of the Trust Fund for cash; provided,
however, that in the event that a calendar quarter ends after the
commencement of the 90-day liquidation period but prior to the Final
Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall not purchase any of the
assets of the Trust Fund prior to the close of that calendar quarter.
(d) Each Holder of a Certificate and the Trustee hereby
irrevocably approves and appoints the Master Servicer as its attorney-in-fact to
adopt a plan of complete liquidation for each of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III
and REMIC IV at the expense of the Trust Fund in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement.
144
ARTICLE XIX
REMIC PROVISIONS
Section 20.02. REMIC Administration.
(b) The REMIC Administrator shall make an election to treat each
of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III and REMIC IV as a REMIC under the Code and, if
necessary, under applicable state law. Such election will be made on Form 1066
or other appropriate federal tax or information return (including Form 8811) or
any appropriate state return for the taxable year ending on the last day of the
calendar year in which the Certificates are issued. The REMIC I Regular
Interests shall be designated as the "regular interests" and the Class R-I
Certificates shall be designated as the sole class of "residual interests" in
REMIC I. The REMIC II Regular Interests shall be designated as the "regular
interests" and the Class R-II Certificates shall be designated as the sole class
of "residual interests" in REMIC II. The REMIC III Regular Interests shall be
designated as the "regular interests" and the Class R-III Certificates shall be
designated as the sole class of "residual interests" in REMIC III. The Class A,
Class M, Class B, Class SB-I and Class SB- II Certificates shall be designated
as the "regular interests" in REMIC IV and the Class R-IV Certificates shall be
designated the sole class of "residual interests" in REMIC IV. The REMIC
Administrator and the Trustee shall not permit the creation of any "interests"
(within the meaning of Section 860G of the Code) in the REMIC other than the
Certificates.
(d) The Closing Date is hereby designated as the "startup day" of
each of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III and REMIC IV within the meaning of Section
860G(a)(9) of the Code.
(f) The REMIC Administrator shall hold a Class R Certificate in
each REMIC representing a 0.01% Percentage Interest of the Class R Certificates
in each REMIC and shall be designated as the "tax matters person" with respect
to each of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III and REMIC IV in the manner provided
under Treasury regulations section 1.860F-4(d) and Treasury regulations section
301.6231(a)(7)-1. The REMIC Administrator, as tax matters person, shall (i) act
on behalf of each of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III and REMIC IV in relation to
any tax matter or controversy involving the Trust Fund and (ii) represent the
Trust Fund in any administrative or judicial proceeding relating to an
examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority with respect thereto.
The legal expenses, including without limitation attorneys' or accountants'
fees, and costs of any such proceeding and any liability resulting therefrom
shall be expenses of the Trust Fund and the REMIC Administrator shall be
entitled to reimbursement therefor out of amounts attributable to the Mortgage
Loans on deposit in the Custodial Account as provided by Section 3.10 unless
such legal expenses and costs are incurred by reason of the REMIC
Administrator's willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. If the REMIC
Administrator is no longer the Master Servicer hereunder, at its option the
REMIC Administrator may continue its duties as REMIC Administrator and shall be
paid reasonable compensation not to exceed $3,000 per year by any successor
Master Servicer hereunder for so acting as the REMIC Administrator.
(h) The REMIC Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared
all of the Tax Returns that it determines are required with respect to the REMIC
created hereunder and deliver such Tax Returns in a timely manner to the Trustee
and the Trustee shall sign and file such
145
Tax Returns in a timely manner. The expenses of preparing such returns shall be
borne by the REMIC Administrator without any right of reimbursement therefor.
The REMIC Administrator agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee with
respect to any tax or liability arising from the Trustee's signing of Tax
Returns that contain errors or omissions. The Trustee and Master Servicer shall
promptly provide the REMIC Administrator with such information as the REMIC
Administrator may from time to time request for the purpose of enabling the
REMIC Administrator to prepare Tax Returns.
(j) The REMIC Administrator shall provide (i) to any Transferor
of a Class R Certificate such information as is necessary for the application of
any tax relating to the transfer of a Class R Certificate to any Person who is
not a Permitted Transferee, (ii) to the Trustee and the Trustee shall forward to
the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code
or the REMIC Provisions including reports relating to interest, original issue
discount, if any, and market discount or premium (using the Prepayment
Assumption) and (iii) to the Internal Revenue Service the name, title, address
and telephone number of the person who will serve as the representative of each
REMIC created hereunder.
(l) The Master Servicer and the REMIC Administrator shall take
such actions and shall cause each REMIC created hereunder to take such actions
as are reasonably within the Master Servicer's or the REMIC Administrator's
control and the scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein as shall
be necessary or desirable to maintain the status thereof as a REMIC under the
REMIC Provisions (and the Trustee shall assist the Master Servicer and the REMIC
Administrator, to the extent reasonably requested by the Master Servicer and the
REMIC Administrator to do so). In performing their duties as more specifically
set forth herein, the Master Servicer and the REMIC Administrator shall not
knowingly or intentionally take any action, cause the Trust Fund to take any
action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action reasonably
within their respective control and the scope of duties more specifically set
forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the
case may be, could (i) endanger the status of any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC
III or REMIC IV as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon any of
REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC IV (including but not limited to the tax
on prohibited transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code (except
as provided in Section 3.22(d)) and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set
forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such event, in the absence of an
Opinion of Counsel or the indemnification referred to in this sentence, an
"Adverse REMIC Event") unless the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as
applicable, has received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party
seeking to take such action or, if such party fails to pay such expense, and the
Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable, determines that
taking such action is in the best interest of the Trust Fund and the
Certificateholders, at the expense of the Trust Fund, but in no event at the
expense of the Master Servicer, the REMIC Administrator or the Trustee) to the
effect that the contemplated action will not, with respect to the Trust Fund
created hereunder, endanger such status or, unless the Master Servicer or the
REMIC Administrator or both, as applicable, determine in its or their sole
discretion to indemnify the Trust Fund against the imposition of such a tax,
result in the imposition of such a tax. Wherever in this Agreement a
contemplated action may not be taken because the timing of such action might
result in the imposition of a tax on the Trust Fund, or may only be taken
pursuant to an Opinion of Counsel that such action would not impose a tax on the
Trust Fund, such action may nonetheless be taken provided that the indemnity
given in the preceding sentence with respect to any taxes that might be imposed
on the Trust Fund has been given and that all other preconditions to the taking
of such action have been satisfied. The Trustee shall not take or fail to take
any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the Master Servicer
or the REMIC
146
Administrator, as applicable, has advised it in writing that it has received an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with
respect to such action. In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to
the Trust Fund or its assets, or causing the Trust Fund to take any action,
which is not expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee
will consult with the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable,
or its designee, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an
Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to the Trust Fund and the Trustee
shall not take any such action or cause the Trust Fund to take any such action
as to which the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable, has
advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur. The Master
Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable, may consult with counsel to
make such written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne by the party
seeking to take the action not expressly permitted by this Agreement, but in no
event at the expense of the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator. At all
times as may be required by the Code, the Master Servicer or the REMIC
Administrator, as applicable, will to the extent within its control and the
scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein, maintain substantially
all of the assets of the REMIC as "qualified mortgages" as defined in Section
860G(a)(3) of the Code and "permitted investments" as defined in Section
860G(a)(5) of the Code.
(n) In the event that any tax is imposed on "prohibited
transactions" of any REMIC created hereunder as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of
the Code, on "net income from foreclosure property" of any REMIC as defined in
Section 860G(c) of the Code, on any contributions to any REMIC after the startup
day therefor pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax imposed
by the Code or any applicable provisions of state or local tax laws, such tax
shall be charged (i) to the Master Servicer, if such tax arises out of or
results from a breach by the Master Servicer of any of its obligations under
this Agreement or the Master Servicer has in its sole discretion determined to
indemnify the Trust Fund against such tax, (ii) to the Trustee, if such tax
arises out of or results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its obligations
under this Article X, or (iii) otherwise against amounts on deposit in the
Custodial Account as provided by Section 3.10 and on the Distribution Date(s)
following such reimbursement the aggregate of such taxes shall be allocated in
reduction of the Accrued Certificate Interest on each Class entitled thereto in
the same manner as if such taxes constituted a Prepayment Interest Shortfall.
(p) The Trustee and the Master Servicer shall, for federal income
tax purposes, maintain books and records with respect to each REMIC on a
calendar year and on an accrual basis or as otherwise may be required by the
REMIC Provisions.
(r) Following the startup day, neither the Master Servicer nor
the Trustee shall accept any contributions of assets to any REMIC unless
(subject to Section 10.01(f)) the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall have
received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to make such
contribution) to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in any REMIC will
not cause any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC IV to fail to qualify as
a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding or subject any such
REMIC to any tax under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of
federal, state and local law or ordinances.
(t) Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall (subject to
Section 10.01(f)) enter into any arrangement by which any of REMIC I, REMIC II,
REMIC III or REMIC IV will receive a fee or other compensation for services nor
permit any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC IV to receive any income
from assets other than "qualified mortgages" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of
the Code or "permitted investments" as defined in Section
147
860G(a)(5) of the Code.
(v) Solely for the purposes of Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the
Treasury Regulations, the "latest possible maturity date" by which the principal
balance of each regular interest in each REMIC would be reduced to zero is
December 25, 2032.
(x) Within 30 days after the Closing Date, the REMIC
Administrator shall prepare and file with the Internal Revenue Service Form
8811, "Information Return for Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduits (REMIC)
and Issuers of Collateralized Debt Obligations" for the Trust Fund.
(z) Neither the Trustee nor the Master Servicer shall sell,
dispose of or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans (except in connection
with (i) the default, imminent default or foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan,
including but not limited to, the acquisition or sale of a Mortgaged Property
acquired by deed in lieu of foreclosure, (ii) the bankruptcy of the Trust Fund,
(iii) the termination of any REMIC pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement or
(iv) a purchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II or III of this
Agreement) or acquire any assets for any REMIC or sell or dispose of any
investments in the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account for gain, or
accept any contributions to any REMIC after the Closing Date unless it has
received an Opinion of Counsel that such sale, disposition, substitution or
acquisition will not (a) affect adversely the status of any of REMIC I, REMIC
II, REMIC III or REMIC IV as a REMIC or (b) unless the Master Servicer has
determined in its sole discretion to indemnify the Trust Fund against such tax,
cause any REMIC to be subject to a tax on "prohibited transactions" or
"contributions" pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.
The Trustee shall treat the Reserve Fund as an outside reserve fund
within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-2(h). The Reserve Fund shall be
owned by the Class SB-I and Class SB-II Certificateholders, and is not an asset
of the REMICs. The Trustee shall treat the rights of the Class A-II, Class M-II
and Class B-II Certificateholders to receive payments from the Reserve Fund as
rights in an interest rate cap contract written by the Class SB-I and Class
SB-II Certificateholders in favor of the Class A-II, Class M-II and Class B-II
Certificateholders. Thus, each Class A-II, Class M-II and Class B-II Certificate
shall be treated as representing ownership of not only REMIC IV regular
interests, but also ownership of an interest in an interest rate cap contract.
For purposes of determining the issue price of the REMIC IV regular interests,
the Trustee shall assume that the interest rate cap contract with respect to the
Class A-II, Class M-II and Class B-II Certificates has a de minimis value.
Section 20.04. Master Servicer, REMIC Administrator and
Trustee Indemnification.
(b) The Trustee agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the
Depositor, the REMIC Administrator and the Master Servicer for any taxes and
costs including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys fees imposed on or
incurred by the Trust Fund, the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as a result of
a breach of the Trustee's covenants set forth in Article VIII or this Article X.
In the event that Residential Funding is no longer the Master Servicer, the
Trustee shall indemnify Residential Funding for any taxes and costs including,
without limitation, any reasonable attorneys fees imposed on or incurred by
Residential Funding as a result of a breach of the Trustee's covenants set forth

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Section 22.02. Amendment.
(b) This Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended from
time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, without the
consent of any of the Certificateholders:
(ii) to cure any ambiguity or to correct any manifest error,
(iv) to correct or supplement any provisions herein or
therein, which may be inconsistent with any other provisions
herein or therein or to correct any error,
(vi) to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions
to such extent as shall be necessary or desirable to maintain the
qualification of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC IV as REMICs at
all times that any Certificate is outstanding or to avoid or minimize
the risk of the imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund pursuant to the
Code that would be a claim against the Trust Fund, provided that the
Trustee has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (A) such
action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to
avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any such tax and (B)
such action will not adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of any Certificateholder,
(viii) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits into
the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account or to change the name
in which the Custodial Account is maintained, provided that (A) the
Certificate Account Deposit Date shall in no event be later than the
related Distribution Date, (B) such change shall not, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of any Certificateholder and (C) such change shall not result
in a reduction of the rating assigned to any Class of Certificates below
the lower of the then-current rating or the rating assigned to such
Certificates as of the Closing Date, as evidenced by a letter from each
Rating Agency to such effect,
(x) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of
Section 5.02(g) or any other provision hereof restricting transfer of
the Class R Certificates by virtue of their being the "residual
interests" in the Trust Fund provided that (A) such change shall not
result in reduction of the rating assigned to any such Class of
Certificates below the lower of the then-current rating or the rating
assigned to such Certificates as of the Closing Date, as evidenced by a
letter from each Rating Agency to such effect, and (B) such change shall
not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party
seeking so to modify, eliminate or add such provisions), cause the Trust
Fund or any of the Certificateholders (other than the transferor) to be
subject to a federal tax caused by a transfer to a Person that is not a
Permitted Transferee, or
(xii) to make any other provisions with respect to matters
or
150
questions arising under this Agreement or such Custodial Agreement which
shall not be materially inconsistent with the provisions of this
Agreement, provided that such action shall not, as evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the
interests of any Certificateholder and is authorized or permitted under
Section 11.09(d).
(d) This Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may also be amended
from time to time with the consent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee and the Holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less
than 66% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected
thereby for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or
eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or such Custodial Agreement
or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such
Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall:
(ii) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of,
payments which are required to be distributed on any Certificate
without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate,
(iv) adversely affect in any material respect the interest
of the Holders of Certificates of any Class in a manner other than as
described in clause (i) hereof without the consent of Holders of
Certificates of such Class evidencing, as to such Class, Percentage
Interests aggregating not less than 66%, or
(vi) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of
any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such
amendment, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all
Certificates of such Class then outstanding.
(f) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall
have first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking
such amendment) to the effect that such amendment or the exercise of any power
granted to the Master Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustee in accordance with
such amendment will not result in the imposition of a federal tax on the Trust
Fund or cause REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or REMIC IV to fail to qualify as
REMICs at any time that any Certificate is outstanding. The Trustee may but
shall not be obligated to enter into any amendment pursuant to this Section that
affects its rights, duties and immunities and this agreement or otherwise;
provided however, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
(h) Promptly after the execution of any such amendment the
Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment to
each Certificateholder. It shall not be necessary for the consent of
Certificateholders under this Section 11.01 to approve the particular form of
any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve
the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing
the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be
subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.
(j) The Depositor shall have the option, in its sole discretion,
to obtain and deliver to the Trustee any corporate guaranty, payment obligation,
irrevocable letter of credit, surety bond, insurance policy or similar
instrument or a reserve fund, or any combination of the foregoing, for the
purpose of protecting the Holders of the Class R Certificates against any or all
Realized Losses or other shortfalls. Any such instrument or fund shall be held
by the Trustee for the
151
benefit of the Class R Certificateholders, but shall not be and shall not be
deemed to be under any circumstances included in the REMIC. To the extent that
any such instrument or fund constitutes a reserve fund for federal income tax
purposes, (i) any reserve fund so established shall be an outside reserve fund
and not an asset of the REMIC, (ii) any such reserve fund shall be owned by the
Depositor, and (iii) amounts transferred by the REMIC to any such reserve fund
shall be treated as amounts distributed by the REMIC to the Depositor or any
successor, all within the meaning of Treasury regulations Section 1.860G-2(h).
In connection with the provision of any such instrument or fund, this Agreement
and any provision hereof may be modified, added to, deleted or otherwise amended
in any manner that is related or incidental to such instrument or fund or the
establishment or administration thereof, such amendment to be made by written
instrument executed or consented to by the Depositor and such related insurer
but without the consent of any Certificateholder and without the consent of the
Master Servicer or the Trustee being required unless any such amendment would
impose any additional obligation on, or otherwise adversely affect the interests
of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable;
provided that the Depositor obtains an Opinion of Counsel (which need not be an
opinion of Independent counsel) to the effect that any such amendment will not
cause (a) any federal tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund, including without
limitation, any federal tax imposed on "prohibited transactions" under Section
860F(a)(1) of the Code or on "contributions after the startup date" under
Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code and (b) any of REMIC I, REMIC II, REMIC III or
REMIC IV to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is
outstanding. In the event that the Depositor elects to provide such coverage in
the form of a limited guaranty provided by General Motors Acceptance
Corporation, the Depositor may elect that the text of such amendment to this
Agreement shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit K (in
which case Residential Funding's Subordinate Certificate Loss Obligation as
described in such exhibit shall be established by Residential Funding's consent
to such amendment) and that the limited guaranty shall be executed in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit L, with such changes as the Depositor shall deem to
be appropriate; it being understood that the Trustee has reviewed and approved
the content of such forms and that the Trustee's consent or approval to the use
thereof is not required.
Section 22.04. Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.
(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement is
subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices for real property
records in all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or
all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and in any other
appropriate public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be
effected by the Master Servicer and at its expense on direction by the Trustee
(pursuant to the request of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25%
of the Voting Rights), but only upon direction accompanied by an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such recordation materially and beneficially affects
the interests of the Certificateholders.
(d) For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this
Agreement as herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be
executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which
counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall
constitute but one and the same instrument.
Section 22.06. Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders.
(b) The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate to
terminate this Agreement or the Trust Fund, nor entitle such Certificateholder's
legal representatives
152
or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or proceeding in any court
for a partition or winding up of the Trust Fund, nor otherwise affect the
rights, obligations and liabilities of any of the parties hereto.
(d) No Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as
expressly provided herein) or in any manner otherwise control the operation and
management of the Trust Fund, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor
shall anything herein set forth, or contained in the terms of the Certificates,
be construed so as to constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as
partners or members of an association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under
any liability to any third person by reason of any action taken by the parties
to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof.
(f) No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any
provision of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in
equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, unless such
Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee a written notice of default
and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the
Holders of Certificates of any Class evidencing in the aggregate not less than
25% of the related Percentage Interests of such Class, shall have made written
request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own
name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable
indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be
incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for 60 days after its receipt of
such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to
institute any such action, suit or proceeding it being understood and intended,
and being expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other
Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates
of any Class shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of any
provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the
Holders of any other of such Certificates of such Class or any other Class, or
to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such
Holder, or to enforce any right under this Agreement, except in the manner
herein provided and for the common benefit of Certificateholders of such Class
or all Classes, as the case may be. For the protection and enforcement of the
provisions of this Section 11.03, each and every Certificateholder and the
Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in
equity.
Section 22.08. Governing Law.
This agreement and the Certificates shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York and the
obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder shall be determined in
accordance with such laws.

this Agreement or of the Certificates or the rights of the Holders thereof.
Section 22.16. Supplemental Provisions for Resecuritization.
(b) This Agreement may be supplemented by means of the addition
of a separate Article hereto (a "Supplemental Article") for the purpose of
resecuritizing any of the Certificates issued hereunder, under the following
circumstances. With respect to any Class or Classes of Certificates issued
hereunder, or any portion of any such Class, as to which the Depositor or any of
its Affiliates (or any designee thereof) is the registered Holder (the
"Resecuritized Certificates"), the Depositor may deposit such Resecuritized
Certificates into a new REMIC, grantor trust, FASIT or custodial arrangement (a
"Restructuring Vehicle") to be held by the Trustee pursuant to a Supplemental
Article. The instrument adopting such Supplemental Article shall be executed by
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee; provided, that neither the
Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall withhold their consent thereto if their
respective interests would not be materially adversely affected thereby. To the
extent that the terms of the Supplemental Article do not in any way affect any
provisions of this Agreement as to any of the Certificates initially issued
hereunder, the adoption of the Supplemental Article shall not constitute an
"amendment" of this Agreement.
Each Supplemental Article shall set forth all necessary
provisions relating to the holding of the Resecuritized Certificates by the
Trustee, the establishment of the Restructuring Vehicle, the issuing of various
classes of new certificates by the Restructuring Vehicle and the distributions
to be made thereon, and any other provisions necessary to the purposes thereof.
In connection with each Supplemental Article, the Depositor shall deliver to the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (i) the Restructuring Vehicle
will qualify as a REMIC, grantor trust, FASIT or other entity not subject to
taxation for federal income tax purposes and (ii) the adoption of the
Supplemental Article will not endanger the status of any of REMIC I, REMIC II,
REMIC III or REMIC IV as a REMIC or result in the imposition of a tax upon the
Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transaction as
defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a
REMIC as set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code.

evidencing a percentage interest in the distributions allocable
to the Class A-[__] Certificates with respect to a Trust Fund
consisting primarily of a pool of conventional one- to
four-family fixed interest rate, first lien mortgage loans sold
by RESIDENTIAL ASSET MORTGAGE PRODUCTS, INC.
This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust Fund,
and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Residential Asset
Mortgage Products, Inc., the Master Servicer, the Trustee referred to below or
GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or any of their affiliates. Neither this Certificate
nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental
agency or instrumentality or by Residential Asset Mortgage Products, Inc., the
Master Servicer, the Trustee or GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or any of their
affiliates. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, GMAC Mortgage Group,
Inc. or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any
certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the
Certificates.
This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the Percentage
Interest evidenced by this Certificate in certain distributions with respect to
the Trust Fund consisting primarily of an interest in a pool of conventional
one- to four-family fixed interest rate, first lien mortgage loans (the
"Mortgage Loans"), sold by Residential Asset Mortgage Products, Inc.
(hereinafter called the "Depositor," which term includes any successor entity
under the Agreement referred to below). The Trust Fund was created pursuant to a
Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as specified above (the "Agreement") among
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and The Chase Manhattan Bank, as trustee (the
"Trustee"), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set
forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used
herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued
under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions
A-2
of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of
the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on
the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the
Business Day immediately following (the "Distribution Date"), commencing as
described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered at the close of business on the last day (or if such last day is not
a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the
month immediately preceding the month of such distribution (the "Record Date"),
from the related Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product
of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount of
interest and principal, if any, required to be distributed to Holders of Class
A-[__] Certificates on such Distribution Date.
Distributions on this Certificate will be made either by the Master
Servicer acting on behalf of the Trustee or by a Paying Agent appointed by the
Trustee in immediately available funds (by wire transfer or otherwise) for the
account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the
Master Servicer or such Paying Agent, or by check mailed to the address of the
Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the
Certificate Register.
Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate
will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution and only upon
presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed
by the Trustee for that purpose in the City and State of New York. The Initial
[Certificate Principal Balance][Notional Amount] of this Certificate is set
forth above. The [Certificate Principal Balance][Notional Amount] hereof will be
reduced to the extent of distributions allocable to principal and any Realized
Losses allocable hereto.
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
issued in several Classes designated as Mortgage Asset-Backed Pass-Through
Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively called the
"Certificates").
The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections
and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans and the Policy, all as more
specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master Servicer
funds are advanced with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is
reimbursable to the Master Servicer, to the extent provided in the Agreement,
from related recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have
been distributable to Certificateholders.
As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial Account
and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of Certificateholders may
be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for purposes other than
distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including without limitation
reimbursement to the Depositor and the Master Servicer of advances made, or
certain expenses incurred, by either of them.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and obligations of
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Agreement from time to time by
A-3
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the
Holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the
Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such
consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on
such Holder and upon all future holders of this Certificate and of any
Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu
hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The
Agreement also permits the amendment thereof in certain circumstances without
the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates and, in certain additional
circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of certain Classes of
Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate
Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the
offices or agencies appointed by the Trustee in the City and State of New York,
duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder's
attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates
of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage
Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without
coupons in Classes and in denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided
in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations
evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the
Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, and the Certificate
Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or
the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to
the contrary.
This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York.
The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificates
and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to
Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and
required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of
(i) the maturity or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan subject thereto
or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the purchase by the Master Servicer
or the Depositor from the Trust Fund of all remaining Mortgage Loans and all
property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans, thereby effecting early
retirement of the related Certificates. The Agreement permits, but does not
require, the Master Servicer (i) to purchase, at a price determined as provided
in the Agreement, all remaining Mortgage
A-4
Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan or (ii) to
purchase in whole, but not in part, all of the Class A Certificates from the
Holders thereof; provided, that any such option may only be exercised if the
aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans, as applicable, as of

to the Class M-[__] Certificates with respect to a Trust Fund
consisting primarily of a pool of conventional one- to
four-family fixed interest rate, first lien mortgage loans sold
by RESIDENTIAL ASSET MORTGAGE PRODUCTS, INC.
This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust
Fund, and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Residential Asset
Mortgage Products, Inc., the Master Servicer, the Trustee referred to below or
GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or any of their affiliates. Neither this Certificate
nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental
agency or instrumentality or by Residential Asset Mortgage Products, Inc., the
Master Servicer, the Trustee or GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or any of their
affiliates. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, GMAC Mortgage Group,
Inc. or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any
certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the
Certificates.
This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the
Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate in certain distributions with
respect to the Trust Fund consisting primarily of an interest in a pool of
conventional one- to four-family fixed interest rate, first lien mortgage loans
(the "Mortgage Loans"), sold by Residential Asset Mortgage Products, Inc.
(hereinafter called the "Depositor," which term includes any successor entity
under the Agreement
B-1-3
referred to below). The Trust Fund was created pursuant to a Pooling and
Servicing Agreement dated as specified above (the "Agreement") among the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and The Chase Manhattan Bank, as trustee (the
"Trustee"), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set
forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used
herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued
under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement,
to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance
hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be
made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day,
the Business Day immediately following (the "Distribution Date"), commencing as
described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered at the close of business on the last day (or if such last day is not
a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the
month immediately preceding the month of such distribution (the "Record Date"),
from the Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product of the
Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount (of interest
and principal, if any) required to be distributed to Holders of Class M-1
Certificates on such Distribution Date.
Distributions on this Certificate will be made either by the
Master Servicer acting on behalf of the Trustee or by a Paying Agent appointed
by the Trustee in immediately available funds (by wire transfer or otherwise)
for the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so
notified the Master Servicer or such Paying Agent, or by check mailed to the
address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on
the Certificate Register.
Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this
Certificate will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution
and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or
agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose in the City and State of New
York. The Initial Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate is set forth
above. The Certificate Principal Balance hereof will be reduced to the extent of
the distributions allocable to principal and any Realized Losses allocable
hereto.
As described above, no transfer of this Class M Certificate will
be made unless (i) the Trustee has received either an opinion of counsel or a
representation letter, each as described in the Agreement, relating to the
permissibility of such transfer under ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code, or
(ii) this Certificate is held by a Depository, in which case the Transferee will
be deemed to have made representations relating to the permissibility of such
transfer under ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code, as described in Section
5.02(f) of the Agreement. In addition, any purported Certificate Owner whose
acquisition or holding of this Certificate (or interest herein) was effected in
violation of the restrictions in Section 5.02(f) of the Agreement shall
indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, any
Subservicer, and the Trust Fund from and against any and all liabilities,
claims, costs or expenses incurred by such parties as a result of such
acquisition or holding.
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of
Certificates issued in several Classes designated as Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively called the
"Certificates").
B-1-4
The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain
collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more
specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master Servicer
funds are advanced with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is
reimbursable to the Master Servicer, to the extent provided in the Agreement,
from related recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have
been distributable to Certificateholders.
As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial
Account and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of
Certificateholders may be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for
purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including
without limitation reimbursement to the Depositor and the Master Servicer of
advances made, or certain expenses incurred, by either of them.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided,
the amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights
of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the Percentage Interests of
each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all
future holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation
of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also permits the
amendment thereof in certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of
any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the
consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the
Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of
transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Trustee in the City and
State of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form
below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such
Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new
Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate
Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates
without coupons in Classes and in denominations specified in the Agreement. As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations
evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the
Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither
B-1-5
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.
This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York.
The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the
Certificates and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon the payment
to Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and
required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of
(i) the maturity or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan subject thereto
or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and (ii) the purchase by the Master Servicer or
the Depositor from the Trust Fund of all remaining Mortgage Loans and all
property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans, thereby effecting early
retirement of the Certificates. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the
Master Servicer or the Depositor to (i) purchase at a price determined as
provided in the Agreement all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired
in respect of any Mortgage Loan or (ii) purchase in whole, but not in part, all
of the Certificates from the Holders thereof; provided, that any such option may
only be exercised if the Pool Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as
of the Distribution Date upon which the proceeds of any such purchase are
distributed is less than ten percent of the Cut-off Date Principal Balance of
the Mortgage Loans.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed
by the Certificate Registrar, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be
entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

evidencing a percentage interest in the distributions allocable
to the Class B Certificates with respect to a Trust Fund
consisting primarily of a pool of conventional one- to
four-family fixed interest rate, first lien mortgage loans sold
by RESIDENTIAL ASSET MORTGAGE PRODUCTS, INC.
This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust
Fund, and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Residential Asset
Mortgage Products, Inc., the Master Servicer, the Trustee referred to below or
GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or any of their affiliates. Neither this Certificate
nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental
agency or instrumentality or by Residential Asset Mortgage Products, Inc., the
Master Servicer, the Trustee or GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or any of their
affiliates. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, GMAC Mortgage Group,
Inc. or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any
certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the
Certificates.
This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the
Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate in certain distributions with
respect to the Trust Fund consisting primarily of an interest in a pool of
conventional one- to four-family fixed interest rate, first lien mortgage loans
(the "Mortgage Loans"), sold by Residential Asset Mortgage Products, Inc.
(hereinafter called the "Depositor," which term includes any successor entity
under the Agreement
B-2-B-4
referred to below). The Trust Fund was created pursuant to a Pooling and
Servicing Agreement dated as specified above (the "Agreement") among the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and The Chase Manhattan Bank, as trustee (the
"Trustee"), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set
forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used
herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued
under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement,
to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance
hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be
made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day,
the Business Day immediately following (the "Distribution Date"), commencing as
described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered at the close of business on the last day (or if such last day is not
a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the
month immediately preceding the month of such distribution (the "Record Date"),
from the Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product of the
Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount (of interest
and principal, if any) required to be distributed to Holders of Class B
Certificates on such Distribution Date.
Distributions on this Certificate will be made either by the
Master Servicer acting on behalf of the Trustee or by a Paying Agent appointed
by the Trustee in immediately available funds (by wire transfer or otherwise)
for the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so
notified the Master Servicer or such Paying Agent, or by check mailed to the
address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on
the Certificate Register.
Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this
Certificate will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution
and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or
agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose in the City and State of New
York. The Initial Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate is set forth
above. The Certificate Principal Balance hereof will be reduced to the extent of
the distributions allocable to principal and any Realized Losses allocable
hereto.
As described above, unless an Officer's Certificate to the effect
that such restrictions no longer apply has been delivered to the trustee in
accordance with the pooling and servicing agreement, no transfer of this Class B
Certificate will be made unless (i) the Trustee has received either an opinion
of counsel or a representation letter, each as described in the Agreement,
relating to the permissibility of such transfer under ERISA and Section 4975 of
the Code, or (ii) this Certificate is held by a Depository, in which case the
Transferee will be deemed to have made representations relating to the
permissibility of such transfer under ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code, as
described in Section 5.02(e) of the Agreement. In addition, any purported
Certificate Owner whose acquisition or holding of this Certificate (or interest
herein) was effected in violation of the restrictions in Section 5.02(e) of the
Agreement shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Master Servicer, any Subservicer, and the Trust Fund from and against any and
all liabilities, claims, costs or expenses incurred by such parties as a result
of such acquisition or holding.
B-2-B-5
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of
Certificates issued in several Classes designated as Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively called the
"Certificates").
The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain
collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more
specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master Servicer
funds are advanced with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is
reimbursable to the Master Servicer, to the extent provided in the Agreement,
from related recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have
been distributable to Certificateholders.
As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial
Account and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of
Certificateholders may be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for
purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including
without limitation reimbursement to the Depositor and the Master Servicer of
advances made, or certain expenses incurred, by either of them.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided,
the amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights
of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the Percentage Interests of
each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all
future holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation
of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also permits the
amendment thereof in certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of
any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the
consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the
Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of
transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Trustee in the City and
State of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form
below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such
Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new
Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate
Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates
without coupons in Classes and in denominations specified in the Agreement. As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations
evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the
Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
B-2-B-6
The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this
Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected
by notice to the contrary.
This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York.
The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the
Certificates and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon the payment
to Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and
required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of
(i) the maturity or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan subject thereto
or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and (ii) the purchase by the Master Servicer or
the Depositor from the Trust Fund of all remaining Mortgage Loans and all
property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans, thereby effecting early
retirement of the Certificates. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the
Master Servicer or the Depositor to (i) purchase at a price determined as
provided in the Agreement all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired
in respect of any Mortgage Loan or (ii) purchase in whole, but not in part, all
of the Certificates from the Holders thereof; provided, that any such option may
only be exercised if the Pool Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as
of the Distribution Date upon which the proceeds of any such purchase are
distributed is less than ten percent of the Cut-off Date Principal Balance of
the Mortgage Loans.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed
by the Certificate Registrar, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be
entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

reimbursable to the Master Servicer, to the extent provided in the Agreement,
from related recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have
been distributable to Certificateholders.
As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial

Certificateholders may be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for
purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including
without limitation reimbursement to the Depositor and the Master Servicer of

obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights
of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the Percentage Interests of
each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all
future holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation
of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also permits the
amendment thereof in certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of
any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the
consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the
Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of
transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Trustee in the City and
State of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form
below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such
Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new
Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate
Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates
without coupons in Classes and in denominations specified in the Agreement. As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations
evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the
Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected
by notice to the contrary.

or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of

provided in the Agreement all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired
in respect of any Mortgage Loan or (ii) purchase in whole, but not in part, all
of the Certificates from the Holders thereof; provided, that any such option may
only be exercised if the Pool Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as
of the Distribution Date upon which the proceeds of any such purchase are
distributed is less than ten percent of the Cut-off Date Principal Balance of
the Mortgage Loans.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed
by the Certificate Registrar, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be

consisting primarily of a pool of conventional one- to

by RESIDENTIAL ASSET MORTGAGE PRODUCTS, INC.
This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust
Fund, and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Residential Asset
Mortgage Products, Inc., the Master Servicer, the Trustee referred to below or
GMAC Mortgage Group, Inc. or any of their affiliates. Neither this Certificate
nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental
agency or instrumentality or by Residential Asset Mortgage Products, Inc., the

affiliates. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, GMAC Mortgage Group,
Inc. or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any
certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the
Certificates.
This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the
Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate in certain distributions with
respect to the Trust Fund consisting primarily of an interest in a pool of
conventional one- to four-family fixed interest rate, first lien mortgage loans
(the "Mortgage Loans"), sold by Residential Asset Mortgage Products, Inc.
(hereinafter called the "Depositor," which term includes any successor entity
under the Agreement
B-2-D-4
referred to below). The Trust Fund was created pursuant to a Pooling and
Servicing Agreement dated as specified above (the "Agreement") among the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and The Chase Manhattan Bank, as trustee (the
"Trustee"), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set
forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used
herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued
under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement,
to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance
hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be
made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day,
the Business Day immediately following (the "Distribution Date"), commencing as
described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered at the close of business on the last day (or if such last day is not
a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the
month immediately preceding the month of such distribution (the "Record Date"),
from the Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product of the
Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount (of interest
and principal, if any) required to be distributed to Holders of Class B
Certificates on such Distribution Date.
Distributions on this Certificate will be made either by the
Master Servicer acting on behalf of the Trustee or by a Paying Agent appointed
by the Trustee in immediately available funds (by wire transfer or otherwise)
for the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so
notified the Master Servicer or such Paying Agent, or by check mailed to the
address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on
the Certificate Register.
Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this
Certificate will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution
and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or
agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose in the City and State of New
York. The Initial Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate is set forth
above. The Certificate Principal Balance hereof will be reduced to the extent of
the distributions allocable to principal and any Realized Losses allocable
hereto.
As described above, unless an Officer's Certificate to the effect
that such restrictions no longer apply has been delivered to the trustee in
accordance with the pooling and servicing agreement, no transfer of this Class B
Certificate will be made unless (i) the Trustee has received either an opinion
of counsel or a representation letter, each as described in the Agreement,
relating to the permissibility of such transfer under ERISA and Section 4975 of
the Code, or (ii) this Certificate is held by a Depository, in which case the
Transferee will be deemed to have made representations relating to the
permissibility of such transfer under ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code, as
described in Section 5.02(e) of the Agreement. In addition, any purported
Certificate Owner whose acquisition or holding of this Certificate (or interest
herein) was effected in violation of the restrictions in Section 5.02(e) of the
Agreement shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Master Servicer, any Subservicer, and the Trust Fund from and against any and
all liabilities, claims, costs or expenses incurred by such parties as a result
of such acquisition or holding.

consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates.

without coupons in Classes and in denominations specified in the Agreement. As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations
evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the

This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust Fund,
and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Residential Asset
Mortgage Products, Inc., the Master Servicer, the Trustee referred to below or
any of their affiliates. Neither this Certificate nor the underlying Mortgage
Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental agency or instrumentality or

This certifies that Xxxx & Co. is the registered owner of the Percentage
Interest evidenced by this Certificate in certain distributions with respect to
the Trust Fund consisting primarily of an interest in a pool of conventional
one- to four-family fixed and adjustable interest rate, first and second lien
mortgage loans (the "Mortgage Loans"), sold by Residential Asset Mortgage
Products, Inc. (hereinafter called the "Depositor," which term includes any
successor entity under the Agreement referred to below). The Trust Fund was

(the "Agreement") among the Depositor, the Master Servicer
C-2
and The Chase Manhattan Bank, as trustee (the "Trustee"), a summary of certain
of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter. To the extent not
defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in
the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms,
provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of
this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such
Holder is bound.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on
the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the
Business Day immediately following (the "Distribution Date"), commencing as
described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered at the close of business on the last day (or if such last day is not
a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the
month immediately preceding the month of such distribution (the "Record Date"),
from the Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product of the
Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount of interest and
principal, if any, required to be distributed to Holders of Class SB-I
Certificates on such Distribution Date.
Distributions on this Certificate will be made either by the Master
Servicer acting on behalf of the Trustee or by a Paying Agent appointed by the
Trustee in immediately available funds (by wire transfer or otherwise) for the
account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the
Master Servicer or such Paying Agent, or by check mailed to the address of the
Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the
Certificate Register.
Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate
will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution and only upon
presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed

Interest Shortfalls not covered by Compensating Interest or Excess Cash Flow,

exempt or is not made in accordance with such Federal and state laws.

obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in the Agreement,
which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Master
Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust Fund. In lieu of such Opinion of Counsel, a
Plan, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or
any Person acquiring this Certificate with Plan Assets of a Plan may provide a
certification in the form of Exhibit O to the Agreement, which the Trustee may
rely upon without further inquiry or investigation.
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
issued in several Classes designated as Mortgage Asset-Backed Pass-Through
Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively called the
"Certificates").
The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections
and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth
herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master Servicer funds are advanced
with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is reimbursable to the Master
Servicer, to the extent provided in the Agreement, from related recoveries on
such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have been distributable to
Certificateholders.
As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial Account
and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of Certificateholders may
be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for purposes other than
distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including without limitation
reimbursement to the Depositor and the Master Servicer of advances made, or
certain expenses incurred, by either of them.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and obligations of
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Agreement from time to time by the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the Percentage Interests of
each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all
future holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation
of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also permits the
amendment thereof in certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of
any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the
consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate
Register upon surrender of this Certificate for
C-4
registration of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Trustee in
the City and State of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an
assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the
Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and
thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing
the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without
coupons in Classes and in denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided
in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations
evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the
Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or
the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to
the contrary.
This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York.
The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificates
and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to
Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and
required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of
(i) the maturity or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan subject thereto
or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the purchase by the Master Servicer
or the Depositor from the Trust Fund of all remaining Mortgage Loans and all
property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans, thereby effecting early
retirement of the Certificates. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the
Master Servicer (i) to purchase, at a price determined as provided in the
Agreement, all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of
any Mortgage Loan or (ii) to purchase in whole, but not in part, all of the
Class A and Class SB Certificates from the Holders thereof; provided, that any
such option may only be exercised if the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of
the Mortgage Loans as of the Distribution Date upon which the proceeds of any
such purchase are distributed is less than ten percent of the Cut-off Date
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans.
Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Certificate
set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes
have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

Class [R-I] [R- II] [R-III] Certificates with respect to the Trust Fund
consisting primarily of a pool of conventional one- to four-family fixed
interest rate, first lien mortgage loans sold by RESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE
PRODUCTS, INC.
This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust Fund and
does not represent an obligation of or interest in Residential Asset Mortgage
Products, Inc., the Master Servicer, the Trustee referred to below or any of
their affiliates. Neither this Certificate nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are
guaranteed or insured by any governmental agency or instrumentality or by
Residential Asset Mortgage Products, Inc., the Master Servicer, the Trustee or
any of their affiliates. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any of
their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any certificate or
other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the Certificates.
This certifies that _________________ is the registered owner of the
Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate in certain distributions with
respect to the Trust Fund consisting primarily of a pool of conventional one- to
four-family fixed interest rate, first lien mortgage loans (the "Mortgage
Loans"), sold by Residential Asset Mortgage Products, Inc. (hereinafter called
the "Depositor," which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement
referred to below). The Trust Fund was created pursuant to a Pooling and
Servicing Agreement dated as specified above (the "Agreement") among the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and The Chase Manhattan Bank, as trustee (the
"Trustee"), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set
forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used
herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued
under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement,
to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance
hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on
the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the
Business Day immediately following (the "Distribution Date"), commencing as
described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered at the close of business on the last day (or if such last day is not
a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the
month immediately preceding
D-3
the month of such distribution (the "Record Date"), from the related Available
Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest
evidenced by this Certificate and the amount of interest and principal, if any,
required to be distributed to Holders of Class R Certificates on such
Distribution Date.
Each Holder of this Certificate will be deemed to have agreed to be
bound by the restrictions set forth in the Agreement to the effect that (i) each
person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in this Certificate must be a
United States Person and a Permitted Transferee, (ii) the transfer of any
Ownership Interest in this Certificate will be conditioned upon the delivery to
the Trustee of, among other things, an affidavit to the effect that it is a
United States Person and Permitted Transferee, (iii) any attempted or purported
transfer of any Ownership Interest in this Certificate in violation of such
restrictions will be absolutely null and void and will vest no rights in the
purported transferee, and (iv) if any person other than a United States Person
and a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in this Certificate
in violation of such restrictions, then the Master Servicer will have the right,
in its sole discretion and without notice to the Holder of this Certificate, to
sell this Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Master Servicer, which
purchaser may be the Master Servicer, or any affiliate of the Master Servicer,
on such terms and conditions as the Master Servicer may choose.
Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate
will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution and only upon
presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed
by the Trustee for that purpose in the City and State of New York. The Holder of
this Certificate may have additional obligations with respect to this
Certificate, including tax liabilities.
No transfer of this Class [R-I] [R-II] [R-III] Certificate will be made
unless such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable state securities laws or
is made in accordance with said Act and laws. In the event that such a transfer
is to be made, (i) the Trustee or the Depositor may require an opinion of
counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and
the Depositor that such transfer is exempt (describing the applicable exemption
and the basis therefor) from or is being made pursuant to the registration
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and of any applicable
statute of any state and (ii) the transferee shall execute an investment letter
in the form described by the Agreement. The Holder hereof desiring to effect
such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Registrar acting on behalf of
the Trustee against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so
exempt or is not made in accordance with such Federal and state laws.
No transfer of this Certificate or any interest herein shall be
made to any Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person
acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person
acquiring such Certificates with "plan assets" of a Plan within the meaning of
the Department of Labor regulation promulgated at 29 C.F.R. ss.2510.3-101 ("Plan
Assets") unless the Depositor, the Trustee and the Master Servicer are provided
with an Opinion of Counsel which establishes to the satisfaction of the
Depositor, the Trustee and the Master Servicer that the purchase of this
Certificate is permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or result
in any prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will
not subject the Depositor, the Master
D-4
Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust Fund to any obligation or liability
(including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code)
in addition to those undertaken in the Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall
not be an expense of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the
Trust Fund. In lieu of such Opinion of Counsel, a Plan, any Person acting,
directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person acquiring this
Certificate with Plan Assets of a Plan may provide a certification in the form
of paragraph fourteen of Exhibit H-1 to the Agreement, which the Trustee may
rely upon without further inquiry or investigation.
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
issued in several Classes designated as Mortgage Asset-Backed Pass-Through
Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively called the
"Certificates").
The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections
and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth
herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master Servicer funds are advanced
with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is reimbursable to the Master
Servicer, to the extent provided in the Agreement, from related recoveries on
such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have been distributable to
Certificateholders.
As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial Account
and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of Certificateholders may
be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for purposes other than
distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including without limitation
reimbursement to the Depositor and the Master Servicer of advances made, or
certain expenses incurred, by either of them.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and obligations of
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Agreement from time to time by the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the Percentage Interests of
each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all
future holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation
of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also permits the
amendment thereof in certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of
any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the
consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate
Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the
offices or agencies appointed by the Trustee in the City and State of New York,
duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder's
attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates
of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage
Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
D-5
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without
coupons in Classes and in denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided
in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations
evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the
Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or
the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is
registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to
the contrary.
This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York.
The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificates
and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to
Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and
required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of
(i) the maturity or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan subject thereto
or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the purchase by the Master Servicer
or the Depositor from the Trust Fund of all remaining Loans and all property
acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans, thereby effecting early retirement
of the related Certificates. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the
Master Servicer (i) to purchase, at a price determined as provided in the
Agreement, all remaining Loans and all property acquired in respect of any
Mortgage Loan or (ii) to purchase in whole, but not in part, all of the

be exercised if the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Loans, as
applicable, as of the Distribution Date upon which the proceeds of any such
purchase are distributed is less than ten percent of the Cut-off Date Principal
Balance of the Loans, as applicable.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the

FORM OF CUSTODIAL AGREEMENT
THIS CUSTODIAL AGREEMENT (as amended and supplemented from time
to time, the "Agreement"), dated as of May 1, 2001, by and among THE CHASE

defined below, the "Trustee"), RESIDENTIAL ASSET MORTGAGE PRODUCTS, INC., as

W I T N E S S E T H T H A T :

WHEREAS, the Company, the Master Servicer, and the Trustee have
entered into a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2001,
relating to the issuance of Residential Asset Mortgage Products, Inc., Mortgage
Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2001-RS2 (as in effect on the
date of this Agreement, the "Original Pooling Agreement," and as amended and
supplemented from time to time, the "Pooling Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, the Custodian has agreed to act as agent for the Trustee
for the purposes of receiving and holding certain documents and other
instruments delivered by the Company and the Master Servicer under the Pooling
Agreement, all upon the terms and conditions and subject to the limitations
hereinafter set forth;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the Trustee, the Company, the
Master Servicer and the Custodian hereby agree as follows:
1. Definitions
Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein
shall have the meanings assigned in the Original Pooling Agreement, unless
otherwise required by the context herein.
E-1
2. Custody of Mortgage Documents
a. Custodian to Act as Agent; Acceptance of Mortgage Files. The
Custodian, as the duly appointed agent of the Trustee for these purposes,
acknowledges receipt of the Mortgage Files relating to the Mortgage Loans
identified on the schedule attached hereto (the "Mortgage Files") and declares
that it holds and will hold the Mortgage Files as agent for the Trustee, in
trust, for the use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.
b. Recordation of Assignments. If any Mortgage File includes one
or more assignments of the related Mortgages to the Trustee that have not been
recorded, each such assignment shall be delivered by the Custodian to the
Company for the purpose of recording it in the appropriate public office for
real property records, and the Company, at no expense to the Custodian, shall
promptly cause to be recorded in the appropriate public office for real property
records each such assignment and, upon receipt thereof from such public office,
shall return each such assignment to the Custodian.
c. Review of Mortgage Files.
i. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Custodian shall deliver
to the Trustee an Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit
One evidencing receipt of a Mortgage File for each Mortgage Loan listed on the
Schedule attached hereto (the "Mortgage Loan Schedule"). The parties hereto
acknowledge that certain documents referred to in Subsection 2.01(b)(i) of the
Pooling Agreement may be missing on or prior to the Closing Date and such
missing documents shall be listed as a Schedule to Exhibit One.
ii. In the event that any Mortgage Note has been delivered to the
Custodian by the Company endorsed to blank, the Custodian, upon the direction of
the Company, shall cause each such Mortgage Note to be endorsed to the Trustee
prior to the date on which the Interim Certification is delivered to the
Trustee. Within 45 days of the initial issuance of the Certificates, the
Custodian agrees, for the benefit of Certificateholders, to review in accordance
with the provisions of Section 2.02 of the Pooling Agreement each Mortgage File
and to deliver to the Trustee an Interim Certification in the form annexed
hereto as Exhibit Two to the effect that all documents required to be delivered
pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of the Pooling Agreement have been executed and
received and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on the
Mortgage Loan Schedule, except for any exceptions listed on Schedule A attached
to such Interim Certification. For purposes of such review, the Custodian shall
compare the following information in each Mortgage File to the corresponding
information in the Mortgage Loan Schedule: (i) the loan number, (ii) the
borrower name and (iii) the original principal balance. The Custodian shall be
under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine said documents,
instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that the same are
genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they
have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be
on their face, or that the MIN is accurate. If in performing the review required
by this Section 2.3 the Custodian finds any document or documents constituting a
part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective in respect of the items
reviewed as described in this Section 2.3(b), the Custodian shall promptly so
notify the Company, the Master Servicer and the Trustee.
E-2
iii. Upon receipt of all documents required to be in the Mortgage
Files the Custodian shall deliver to the Trustee a Final Certification in the
form annexed hereto as Exhibit Three evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage
Files.
Upon receipt of written request from the Trustee, the Company or
the Master Servicer, the Custodian shall as soon as practicable supply the
Trustee with a list of all of the documents relating to the Mortgage Loans
required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of the Pooling Agreement
not then contained in the Mortgage Files.
d. Notification of Breaches of Representations and Warranties.
Upon discovery by the Custodian of a breach of a representation or warranty made
by the Master Servicer or the Company as set forth in the Pooling Agreement with
respect to a Mortgage Loan relating to a Mortgage File, the Custodian shall give
prompt written notice to the Company, the Master Servicer and the Trustee.
e. Custodian to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files. Upon the
repurchase or substitution of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Article II of the
Pooling Agreement or payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the
Master Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a
manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer shall immediately notify
the Custodian by delivering to the Custodian a Request for Release (in the form
of Exhibit Four attached hereto or a mutually acceptable electronic form) and
shall request delivery to it of the Mortgage File. The Custodian agrees, upon
receipt of such Request for Release, promptly to release to the Master Servicer
the related Mortgage File. Upon written notification of a substitution, the
Master Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian and the Custodian agrees to
accept the Mortgage Note and other documents constituting the Mortgage File with
respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, upon receiving written
notification from the Master Servicer of such substitution.
Upon receipt of a Request for Release from the Master Servicer, signed
by a Servicing Officer, that (i) the Master Servicer or a Subservicer, as the
case may be, has made a deposit into the Certificate Account in payment for the
purchase of the related Mortgage Loan in an amount equal to the Purchase Price
for such Mortgage Loan or (ii) the Company has chosen to substitute a Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan for such Mortgage Loan, the Custodian shall release to
the Master Servicer the related Mortgage File.
From time to time as is appropriate for the servicing or
foreclosures of any Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose, collection under
any Primary Insurance Policy or any Mortgage Pool Insurance Policy, the Master
Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian a Request for Release certifying as to
the reason for such release. Upon receipt of the foregoing, the Custodian shall
deliver the Mortgage File or such document to the Master Servicer. The Master
Servicer shall cause each Mortgage 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
Custodial Account or (ii) the Mortgage 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 an
updated Request for Release signed by a
E-3
Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which
such Mortgage File or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of
such delivery. Immediately upon receipt of any Mortgage File returned to the
Custodian by the Master Servicer, the Custodian shall deliver a signed
acknowledgment to the Master Servicer, confirming receipt of such Mortgage File.
Upon the request of the Master Servicer, the Custodian will send
to the Master Servicer copies of any documents contained in the Mortgage File.
f. Assumption Agreements. In the event that any assumption
agreement or substitution of liability agreement is entered into with respect to
any Mortgage Loan subject to this Agreement in accordance with the terms and
provisions of the Pooling Agreement, the Master Servicer shall notify the
Custodian that such assumption or substitution agreement has been completed by
forwarding to the Custodian the original of such assumption or substitution
agreement, which shall be added to the related Mortgage File and, for all
purposes, shall be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as
all other documents and instruments constituting parts thereof.
3. Concerning the Custodian
a. Custodian a Bailee and Agent of the Trustee. With respect to
each Mortgage Note, Mortgage and other documents constituting each Mortgage File
which are delivered to the Custodian, the Custodian is exclusively the bailee
and agent of the Trustee and has no instructions to hold any Mortgage Note or
Mortgage for the benefit of any person other than the Trustee and the
Certificateholders and undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as
are specifically set forth in this Agreement. Except upon compliance with the
provisions of Section 2.5 of this Agreement, no Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other
document constituting a part of a Mortgage File shall be delivered by the
Custodian to the Company or the Master Servicer or otherwise released from the
possession of the Custodian.
The Master Servicer shall promptly notify the Custodian in
writing if it shall no longer be a member of MERS, or if it otherwise shall no
longer be capable of registering and recording Mortgage Loans using MERS. In
addition, the Master Servicer shall (i) promptly notify the Custodian in writing
when a MERS Mortgage Loan is no longer registered with and recorded under MERS
and (ii) concurrently with any such deregistration of a MERS Mortgage Loan,
prepare, execute and record an original assignment from MERS to the Trustee and
deliver such assignment to the Custodian.
b. Indemnification. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and
hold the Custodian harmless from and against all claims, liabilities, losses,
actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity, or any other expenses, fees
or charges of any character or nature, which the Custodian may incur or with
which the Custodian may be threatened by reason of its acting as custodian under
this Agreement, including indemnification of the Custodian against any and all
expenses, including attorney's fees if counsel for the Custodian has been
approved by the Company, and the cost of defending any action, suit or
proceedings or resisting any claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is
specifically understood and agreed that in the event any such claim, liability,
loss,
E-4
action, suit or proceeding or other expense, fee or charge shall have been
caused by reason of any negligent act, negligent failure to act or willful
misconduct on the part of the Custodian, or which shall constitute a willful
breach of its duties hereunder, the indemnification provisions of this Agreement
shall not apply.
c. Custodian May Own Certificates. The Custodian in its individual or any
other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same
rights it would have if it were not Custodian.
d. Master Servicer to Pay Custodian's Fees and Expenses. The
Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the Custodian from time to time,
and the Custodian shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for all services
rendered by it in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties
hereunder of the Custodian, and the Master Servicer will pay or reimburse the
Custodian upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and
advances incurred or made by the Custodian in accordance with any of the
provisions of this Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the
expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not regularly in
its employ), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from
its negligence or bad faith.
e. Custodian May Resign; Trustee May Remove Custodian. The
Custodian may resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed upon it as
such obligations and duties relate to its acting as Custodian of the Mortgage
Loans. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Trustee shall either take
custody of the Mortgage Files itself and give prompt notice thereof to the
Company, the Master Servicer and the Custodian, or promptly appoint a successor
Custodian by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument
shall be delivered to the resigning Custodian and one copy to the successor
Custodian. If the Trustee shall not have taken custody of the Mortgage Files and
no successor Custodian shall have been so appointed and have accepted
appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the
resigning Custodian may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Custodian.
The Trustee may remove the Custodian at any time. In such event,
the Trustee shall appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to
appoint, a successor Custodian hereunder. Any successor Custodian shall be a
depository institution subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
authority and shall be able to satisfy the other requirements contained in
Section 3.7 and shall be unaffiliated with the Master Servicer or the Company.
Any resignation or removal of the Custodian and appointment of a
successor Custodian pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 3.5 shall
become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Custodian. The
Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Company and the Master Servicer of the
appointment of any successor Custodian. No successor Custodian shall be
appointed by the Trustee without the prior approval of the Company and the
Master Servicer.
f. Merger or Consolidation of Custodian. Any Person into which the
Custodian may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or
any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the
Custodian shall be a party, or any Person
E-5
succeeding to the business of the Custodian, shall be the successor of the
Custodian hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further
act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.
g. Representations of the Custodian. The Custodian hereby
represents that it is a depository institution subject to supervision or
examination by a federal or state authority, has a combined capital and surplus
of at least $15,000,000 and is qualified to do business in the jurisdictions in
which it will hold any Mortgage File.
4. Miscellaneous Provisions
a. Notices. All notices, requests, consents and demands and other
communications required under this Agreement or pursuant to any other instrument
or document delivered hereunder shall be in writing and, unless otherwise
specifically provided, may be delivered personally, by telegram or telex, or by
registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, at the
addresses specified on the signature page hereof (unless changed by the
particular party whose address is stated herein by similar notice in writing),
in which case the notice will be deemed delivered when received.
b. Amendments. No modification or amendment of or supplement to
this Agreement shall be valid or effective unless the same is in writing and
signed by all parties hereto, and neither the Company, the Master Servicer nor
the Trustee shall enter into any amendment hereof except as permitted by the
Pooling Agreement. The Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Custodian of any
amendment or supplement to the Pooling Agreement and furnish the Custodian with
written copies thereof.
c.
SECTION 4.3. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED A
CONTRACT MADE UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND
ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
d. Recordation of Agreement. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, this Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate
public offices for real property records in all the counties or other comparable
jurisdictions in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are
situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere,
such recordation to be effected by the Master Servicer and at its expense on
direction by the Trustee (pursuant to the request of holders of Certificates
evidencing undivided interests in the aggregate of not less than 25% of the
Trust Fund), but only upon direction accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer to the effect that the failure to
effect such recordation is likely to materially and adversely affect the
interests of the Certificateholders.
For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement
as herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed
simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall
be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and
the same instrument.
E-6
e. Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any
reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements, provisions or
terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements,
provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or
enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement or of the Certificates
or the rights of the holders thereof.
