procedures that the 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 Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to
Section 5.05 of the Purchase and Servicing Agreement;
provided, that such proceeds shall not be so deposited if the

Servicer shall promptly complete the notice in the form of
Attachment 1 to the Surety Bond and shall promptly submit such
notice to the Surety Bond Issuer as a claim for a required
surety. The Purchaser shall execute such notice if requested
by the Additional Collateral Servicer.

Payment from the Surety Bond Issuer on behalf of the
Purchaser, the Servicer shall deposit such Required Surety
Payment in the Collection Account and shall distribute such
Required Surety Payment, or the proceeds thereof, in
accordance with the provisions of the Purchase and Servicing
Agreement applicable to Insurance Proceeds.
(c) Purchaser shall, to the extent required by Surety Bond Issuer,
enter into an indemnification agreement with Surety Bond
Issuer pursuant to which Purchaser will indemnify Surety Bond

to certain matters, including but not limited to any
securitization of the Additional Collateral Mortgage Loans.
