PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
The Depositor intends to sell pass-through certificates (collectively,
the "Certificates"), to be issued hereunder in multiple Classes, which in the

AF-1A, Class AF-1B, Class AF-1C, Class AF-2, Class AF-3 and Class AF-4

and Class B-6 Certificates, (iv) the Class N Certificates, (v) the Class X
Certificates, (vi) the Class R Certificates and the Class R-X Certificates.
As provided herein, the Trustee shall elect that the Trust Fund (other

federal income tax purposes as nine separate real estate mortgage investment
conduits (each a "REMIC" or, in the alternative, "REMIC 1," "REMIC 2," "REMIC
B-1," "REMIC B-2," "REMIC B-3," "REMIC B-4," "REMIC B-5," "REMIC B-6" and "REMIC

together represent beneficial ownership of the REMIC X/N X/N Interest subject to

R-2 Interests, represented collectively by the Class R Certificates, represents
the sole Class of "residual interest" in REMIC 1 and REMIC 2, respectively, for

purposes, the REMIC X/N X/N Interest will be held as the asset of the Grantor

Exhibit F-1 that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule
(other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically
identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not being covered by such
certification), (i) all documents required to be delivered to it pursuant to
Section 2.01 of this Agreement are in its possession, (ii) such documents have
been reviewed by it and have not been mutilated, damaged or torn and relate to
such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on its examination and only as to the
foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule that
corresponds to items (1), (2), (3), (5), (13) and (26) (in the case of (26),
only as to whether there is a prepayment penalty) of the Mortgage Loan Schedule
accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File. It is herein
acknowledged that, in conducting such review, the Trustee (or the Custodian, as
applicable) is under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine any
such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that they
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.
Prior to the first anniversary date of this Agreement the Trustee shall
deliver (or cause the Custodian to deliver) to the Depositor and the Servicer a
final certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F-2 evidencing the
completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable exceptions noted
thereon.
If in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making or
preparing, as the case may be, the certifications referred to above, the Trustee
(or the Custodian, as applicable) finds any document or documents constituting a
part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective in any material respect, at
the conclusion of its review the Trustee (upon its notification by the
Custodian) shall so notify the Seller, the Depositor and the Servicer. In
addition, upon the discovery by the Seller, Depositor, the Trustee or the
Servicer (or upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification of such breach)
of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by the Seller in
the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan
which materially adversely affects such Mortgage Loan or the interests of the
related Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such
breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties.
The Depositor and the Trustee intend that the assignment and transfer
herein contemplated constitute a sale of the Mortgage Loans and the Related
Documents, conveying good title thereto free and clear of any liens and
encumbrances, from the Depositor to the Trustee and that such property not be
part of the Depositor's estate or property of the Depositor in the event of any
insolvency by the Depositor. In the event that such conveyance is deemed to be,
or to be made as security for, a loan, the parties intend that the Depositor
shall be deemed to have granted and does hereby grant to the Trustee, on behalf
of the Trust, a first priority perfected security interest in all of the
Depositor's right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and the
Related Documents, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement
under applicable law.
The Trustee is hereby directed to execute, deliver and perform its
obligations under the Cap Contract on the Closing Date and thereafter on behalf
of the Holders of the Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-3 and Class M-4
Certificates. The Seller, the Servicer, the Depositor and the Holders of the
Class X-0, Xxxxx X-0, Class M-3 and Class M-4 Certificates by acceptance of
their Certificates acknowledge and agree that the Trustee shall execute, deliver
and perform its obligations under the Cap Contract and shall do so solely in its
capacity as Trustee of the Trust Fund and not in its individual capacity.
53
The Trustee is hereby directed to represent and warrant to the Cap
Contract Provider under the Cap Contract that the beneficial owner for United
States federal income tax purposes of payments made under the Cap Contract is
either:
(A) a "U.S. person" (as that term is used in section
1.1441-4(a)(3)(ii) of United States Treasury Regulations (the
"Regulations")) for United States federal income tax purposes,
or
(B) a "non-U.S. branch of a foreign person" as that term is used
in section 1.1441-4(a)(3)(ii) of the Regulations for United
States federal income tax purposes, and a "foreign person" as
that term is used in section 1.6041-4(a)(4) of the Regulations
for United States federal income tax purposes.
Section 2.03 Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans by the
Seller.
(a) Upon discovery or receipt of written notice of any
materially defective document in, or that a document is missing from, a Mortgage
File or of the breach by the Seller of any representation, warranty or covenant
under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or in Section 2.04 in respect of any
Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan
or the interest therein of the Certificateholders, the Trustee (or the
Custodian, as applicable) shall promptly notify the Seller, the Servicer and the
Trustee of such defect, missing document or breach and request that the Seller
deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach within 120 days or
150 days following the Closing Date, in the case of missing Mortgages or
Assignments from the date the Seller was notified of such missing document,
defect or breach, and if the Seller does not deliver such missing document or
cure such defect or breach in all material respects during such period, the
Trustee shall enforce the Seller's obligation under the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement and inform the Seller of its obligation to repurchase such Mortgage
Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price on or prior to the Determination
Date following the expiration of such 120 day period (subject to Section
2.03(e)); provided that, in connection with any such breach that is susceptible
to cure but that could not reasonably have been cured within such 120 day or 150
day period, if the Seller shall have commenced to cure such breach within such
120 day or 150 day period, the Seller shall be permitted to proceed thereafter
diligently and expeditiously to cure the same within 120 days. The Purchase
Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan shall be deposited in the Collection
Account, and the Trustee, upon receipt of written certification from the
Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File
and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in
each case without recourse, representation or warranty, as the Seller shall
furnish to it and as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller any Mortgage Loan
released pursuant hereto and the Trustee shall have no further responsibility
with regard to such Mortgage File. In lieu of repurchasing any such Mortgage
Loan as provided above, the Seller may cause such Mortgage Loan to be removed
from the Trust Fund (in which case it shall become a Defective Mortgage Loan)
and substitute one or more Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and
subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d). In addition to the
foregoing, in the case of a breach of the Seller's representation set forth in
Section 3.01(f) of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Seller shall
reimburse the Trust for all costs or damages incurred by the Trust as a result
of the violation of such law (such amount, the "Reimbursement Amount"). The
Reimbursement Amount shall be delivered to the Servicer for deposit into the
Collection Account within 10 days from the date the Seller was notified by the
Trustee of the amount of such costs and damages. It is understood and agreed
that the obligation of the Seller to pay the Reimbursement Amount and to either
cure or repurchase (or substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a document
is missing, a material defect in a constituent document exists or as to which
such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy
against the Seller respecting such omission, defect or breach available to the
Trustee and the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders.
54
(b) [Reserved].
(c) Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Servicer
or receipt of notice by the Servicer of the breach of any representation,
warranty or covenant of the Servicer set forth in Section 2.05 which materially
and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage
Loan, the Servicer shall cure such breach in all material respects.
(d) Any substitution of Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans for
Defective Mortgage Loans made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) must be effected prior
to the last Business Day that is within two years after the Closing Date. As to
any Defective Mortgage Loan for which the Seller substitutes a Eligible
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be effected by the
Seller delivering to the Trustee for such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or
Loans, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment to the Trustee, and such
other documents and agreements, with all necessary endorsements thereon, as are
required by Section 2.01, together with an Officer's Certificate providing that
each such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies the definition thereof and
specifying the Substitution Adjustment Amount (as described below), if any, in
connection with such substitution. The Trustee shall acknowledge receipt for
such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and, within ten Business Days
thereafter, shall review (or cause the Custodian to review) such documents as
specified in Section 2.02 and deliver (or cause the Custodian to deliver) to the
Servicer, with respect to such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, a
certification substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-1, with any
applicable exceptions noted thereon. Within one year of the date of
substitution, the Trustee shall deliver (or cause the Custodian to deliver) to
the Servicer a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 hereto
with respect to such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, with any
applicable exceptions noted thereon. Monthly Payments due with respect to
Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution are not part of
the Trust Fund and will be retained by the Seller. For the month of
substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will reflect the collections
and recoveries in respect of such Defective Mortgage Loan in the Collection
Period preceding the month of substitution and the Depositor or the Seller, as
the case may be, shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently
received in respect of such Defective Mortgage Loan. The Seller shall give or
cause to be given written notice to the Certificateholders that such
substitution has taken place, shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect
the removal of such Defective Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement and
the substitution of the Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and shall
deliver a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee. Upon such
substitution, such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall constitute
part of the Mortgage Pool and shall be subject in all respects to the terms of
this Agreement and, in the case of a substitution effected by the Seller, the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, and consistent with the standard of care which
the Servicer uses and/or would use in servicing mortgage loans for its own
account including, in the case of a substitution effected by the Seller all
applicable representations and warranties thereof included in the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement and all applicable representations and warranties thereof set
forth in Section 2.04, in each case as of the date of substitution.
For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Eligible
Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Defective Mortgage Loans, the Servicer
will determine the amount (the "Substitution Adjustment Amount"), if any, by
which the aggregate Purchase Price of all such Defective Mortgage Loans exceeds
the aggregate, as to each such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan, of the
principal balance thereof as of the date of substitution, together with one
month's interest on such principal balance at the applicable Net Mortgage
Interest Rate. On the date of such substitution, the Seller will deliver or
cause to be delivered to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account an
amount equal to the Substitution Adjustment Amount, if any, and the Trustee,
upon receipt by it or the Custodian of the related Eligible Substitute Mortgage
Loan or Loans and certification by the Servicer of such deposit, shall release
to the Seller the related Mortgage File or Files and shall execute and deliver
such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse,
representation or warranty, as the Seller shall deliver to it and as shall be
necessary to vest therein any Defective Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.
55
In addition, the Seller shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to
the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution 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)(l) of the Code or on "contributions after the startup date" under
Section 860G(d)(l) of the Code, or (b) any REMIC formed under this Agreement to
fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding. If
such Opinion of Counsel cannot be delivered, then such substitution may only be
effected at such time as the required Opinion of Counsel can be given.
(e) Upon discovery by the Seller, the Servicer or the Trustee that
any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning
of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact shall within
two Business Days give written notice thereof to the other parties. In
connection therewith, the Seller shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations
set forth in Section 2.03(d), substitute one or more Eligible Substitute
Mortgage Loans for the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of the earlier of
discovery or receipt of such notice with respect to such affected Mortgage Loan.
In addition, upon discovery that a Mortgage Loan is defective in a manner that
would cause it to be a "defective obligation" within the meaning of Treasury
regulations relating to REMICs, the Seller shall cure the defect or make the
required purchase or substitution no later than 90 days after the discovery of
the defect. Any such repurchase or substitution shall be made in the same manner
as set forth in Section 2.03(a), if made by the Seller. The Trustee shall
reconvey to the Seller the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant hereto in the
same manner, and on the same terms and conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan
repurchased for breach of a representation or warranty.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties
hereto acknowledge that the functions of the Trustee with respect to the
custody, acceptance, inspection and release of the Mortgage Files pursuant to
Sections 2.01, 2.02 and 2.03 and preparation and delivery of the certifications
in the form of Exhibit F-1 and Exhibit F-2 shall be performed by the Custodian
pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Custodial Agreement. The fees and
expenses of the Custodian shall be paid by the Servicer.
Section 2.04 Representations and Warranties of the Seller with Respect
to the Mortgage Loans.
The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee for the
benefit of the Certificateholders that as of the Closing Date or as of such
other date specifically provided herein:
(a) The representations and warranties made by the Seller pursuant
to Section 3.01 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement are hereby being made to
the Trustee and are true and correct as of the Closing Date.
(b) Any written agreement between the Mortgagor in respect of a
Mortgage Loan and the Servicer modifying such Mortgagor's obligation to make
payments under the Mortgage Loan (such modified Mortgage Loan, a "Modified
Mortgage Loan") involved some assessment of the Mortgagor's ability to repay the
Modified Mortgage Loan.
56
With respect to the representations and warranties set forth in this
Section 2.04 that are made to the best of the Seller's knowledge or as to which
the Seller has no knowledge, if it is discovered by the Depositor, the Seller,
the Servicer or the Trustee that the substance of such representation and
warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy materially and adversely affects the
value of the related Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the
Certificateholders then, notwithstanding the Seller's lack of knowledge with
respect to the substance of such representation and warranty being inaccurate at
the time the representation or warranty was made, such inaccuracy shall be
deemed a breach of the applicable representation or warranty.
Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer or the
Trustee of a breach of any of the representations and warranties contained in
this Section that materially and adversely affects the value of any Mortgage
Loan or the interest therein of the Certificateholders, the party discovering
the breach shall give prompt written notice to the others and in no event later
than two Business Days from the date of such discovery. Within ninety days of
its discovery or its receipt of notice of any such missing or materially
defective documentation or any such breach of a representation or warranty, the
Seller shall promptly deliver such missing document or cure such defect or
breach in all material respects, or in the event such defect or breach cannot be
cured, the Seller shall repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or cause the
removal of such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund and substitute for it one or
more Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans, in either case, in accordance with
Section 2.03.
It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set
forth in this Section 2.04 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to the
Trustee and shall inure to the benefit of the Certificateholders notwithstanding
any restrictive or qualified endorsement or assignment. It is understood and
agreed that the obligations of the Seller set forth in Section 2.03(a) and (c)
to cure, substitute for or repurchase a Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Mortgage
Loan Purchase Agreement and to reimburse the Trust the Reimbursement Amount,
constitute the sole remedies available to the Certificateholders or to the
Trustee on their behalf respecting a breach of the representations and
warranties contained in this Section 2.04.

good standing as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of
Delaware and has the power and authority to own its assets and to transact the
business in which it is currently engaged. The Seller is duly qualified to do
business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the character of

enforcement of such terms may be limited by (1) bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, receivership, moratorium or similar laws affecting the
enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by the availability of equitable
remedies, (2) general equity principles (regardless of whether such enforcement
is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) or (3) public policy
considerations underlying the securities laws, to the extent that such policy
considerations limit the enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement
which purport to provide indemnification from securities laws liabilities.
(iii) The Seller holds all necessary licenses,
certificates and permits from all governmental authorities necessary for
conducting its business as it is presently conducted, except for such licenses,
certificates and permits the absence of which, individually or in the aggregate,

ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF THE TRUST FUND
Section 3.01 Servicer to Act as Servicer.
The Servicer, as independent contract servicer, shall service and
administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and the normal
and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage servicers, and shall have
full power and authority, acting alone, to do or cause to be done any and all
things in connection with such servicing and administration which the Servicer
may deem necessary or desirable and consistent with the terms of this Agreement
and consistent with the standard of care which the Servicer uses and/or would
use in servicing mortgage loans for its own account including, in the case of
FHA Loans and the VA Loans, taking all actions that a mortgagee is permitted or
required to take by the FHA or VA, as applicable (the "Servicing Standards").
Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer may 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 Servicer's reasonable and prudent determination such waiver,
modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the
Certificateholders; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not make future
advances and (unless the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Mortgage
Loan or such default is, in the judgment of the Servicer, reasonably
foreseeable) the Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any
Mortgage Loan that would (i) change the Mortgage Interest Rate, defer or forgive
the payment thereof of any principal or interest payments, reduce the
outstanding principal amount (except for actual payments of principal) or extend
the final maturity date with respect to such Mortgage Loan, (ii) in the case of
FHA Loans, affect the FHA Insurance Contract with respect to such Mortgage Loan
and in the case of the VA Loans, affect the VA Guaranty with respect to such
Mortgage Loan, (iii) affect adversely the status of any REMIC constituting part
of the Trust Fund as a REMIC or (iv) cause any REMIC to be subject to a tax on
"prohibited transactions" or "contributions" pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not permit any modification
with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would both (x) effect an exchange or
reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under Section 1.860G-2(b) of the Treasury
Regulations and (y) cause any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund to fail
to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or the imposition of any tax on "prohibited
transactions" or "contributions" after the Startup Day under the REMIC
Provisions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall
continue, and is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver on
behalf of itself, and the Trustee, all instruments of satisfaction or
cancellation, or of partial or full release, discharge and all other comparable
instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the
Mortgaged Property. The Servicer shall make all required Servicing Advances and
shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with Applicable
Regulations, and shall provide to the Mortgagors any reports required to be
provided to them thereby. If reasonably required by the Servicer, the Trustee
shall furnish the Servicer a power of attorney (substantially in the form
annexed hereto as Exhibit Q) and other documents necessary or appropriate to
enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under
this Agreement.
In servicing and administering FHA Loans, the Servicer shall comply
strictly with the National Housing Act, the FHA Regulations, the Servicemen's
Readjustment Act and administrative guidelines issued thereunder or pursuant
thereto (insofar as the same apply to any Mortgage Loan) and, to the extent
permitted hereunder, promptly discharge all of the obligations of the mortgagee
thereunder and under each Mortgage including the timely giving of notices, the
essence hereof being that the full benefits of each FHA Insurance Contract inure
to the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders.
63
In servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall
employ procedures including collection procedures and exercise the same care
that it customarily employs and exercises in servicing and administering
mortgage loans for its own account giving due consideration to accepted mortgage
servicing practices of prudent lending institutions and the FHA Insurance
Contracts and the Certificateholders' reliance on the Servicer.
The Servicer shall give prompt notice to the Trustee of any action, of
which the Servicer has actual knowledge, which action purports to (i) assert a
claim against the Trust Fund or (ii) assert jurisdiction over the Trust Fund.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the
event of a Principal Prepayment in full, the Servicer may not waive any
prepayment penalty or portion thereof required by the terms of the related
Mortgage Note unless (i) the related Mortgage Loan is in default or foreseeable
default and such waiver (a) is standard and customary in servicing mortgage
loans similar to the Mortgage Loans and (b) would, in the reasonable judgment of
the Servicer, maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value
of such prepayment penalty and the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) (A) the
enforceability thereof is limited (1) by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium,
receivership, or other similar law relating to creditors' rights generally or
(2) due to acceleration in connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary
payment, or (B) the enforceability is otherwise limited or prohibited by
applicable law or (iii) if the Servicer has not been provided with information
sufficient to enable it to collect the prepayment penalty. For the avoidance of
doubt, the Servicer may waive a prepayment penalty in connection with a short
sale or short payoff on a defaulted Mortgage Loan. If the Servicer has waived
all or a portion of a prepayment penalty relating to a Principal Prepayment,
other than as provided above, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee as soon
as possible after the date of payoff, but in no event later than five business
days from such date, for deposit into the Distribution Account the amount of
such prepayment penalty (or such portion thereof as had been waived) for
distribution in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Based solely on information provided to it by the Servicer, the Trustee
shall prepare and deliver to the Depositor and the owners of the Class N and
Class X Certificates, on a monthly basis, a statement setting forth the amounts
received with respect to prepayment penalties.
Section 3.02 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments.
Continuously from the date hereof until the principal and interest on
all Mortgage Loans are paid in full, the Servicer will diligently collect all
payments due under each Mortgage Loan when the same shall become due and payable
and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement
and the terms and provisions of any related Primary Insurance Policy and
Applicable Regulations, follow such collection procedures as it follows with
respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held for its own
account. Further, the Servicer will take special care in ascertaining and
estimating annual ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, fire and hazard
insurance premiums, mortgage insurance premiums, and all other charges that, as
provided in the Mortgage, will become due and payable to that end that the
installments payable by the Mortgagors will be sufficient to pay such charges as
and when they become due and payable.
Section 3.03 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
In the event that any payment due under any Conventional Mortgage Loan
is not paid when the same becomes due and payable, or in the event the Mortgagor
fails to perform any other covenant or obligation under the Mortgage Loan and
such failure continues beyond any applicable grace period, the Servicer shall
take such action as it shall deem to be in the best interest of the
Certificateholders. In the event that any payment due under any FHA Loan becomes
delinquent, the Servicer shall take all such actions as are in the best
interests of the Certificateholders and permitted under any applicable FHA loss
mitigation proceedings, including, but not limited to, requesting the FHA to
accept an assignment of such FHA Loan, and, upon the Servicer's determination
that foreclosure is in the best interest of the Certificateholders, commencing
foreclosure proceedings. With respect to any defaulted Mortgage Loan, the
Servicer shall have the right to review the status of the related forbearance
plan and, subject to the second paragraph of Section 3.01, may modify such
forbearance plan; including, extending the Mortgage Loan repayment date for a
period of one year or reducing the Mortgage Interest Rate up to 50 basis points.
64
In connection with a foreclosure or other conversion, the Servicer
shall exercise such rights and powers vested in it hereunder and use the same
degree of care and skill in its exercise as prudent mortgage servicers would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of their own affairs and
consistent with Applicable Regulations and the servicing standards set forth in
the Xxxxxx Xxx Guide, including, without limitation, advancing funds for the
payment of taxes and insurance premiums with respect to first lien Mortgage
Loans.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.03, with
respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Servicer has received actual notice
of, or has actual knowledge of, the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance
on the related Mortgaged Property, the Servicer shall not either (i) obtain
title to such Mortgaged Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or
otherwise, or (ii) otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action
with respect to, such Mortgaged Property if, as a result of any such action, the
Trust Fund would be considered to hold title to, to be a mortgagee-in-possession
of, or to be an owner or operator of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning
of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of
1980, as amended from time to time, or any comparable law, unless the Servicer
has also previously determined, based on its reasonable judgment and a prudent
report prepared by a Person who regularly conducts environmental audits using
customary industry standards, that:
A. such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable
environmental laws or, if not, that it would be in the best economic interest of
the Certificateholders to take such actions as are necessary to bring the
Mortgaged Property into compliance therewith; and
B. there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property
relating to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous substances,
hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials for which
investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could
be required under any federal, state or local law or regulation, or that if any
such materials are present for which such action could be required, that it
would be in the best economic interest of the Certificateholders to take such
actions with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property.
The cost of the environmental audit report contemplated by this Section
3.03 shall be advanced by the Servicer, subject to the Servicer's right to be
reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.05(ii).
If the Servicer determines, as described above, that it is in the best
economic interest of the Certificateholders to take such actions as are
necessary to bring any such Mortgaged Property into compliance with applicable
environmental laws, or to take such action with respect to the containment,
clean-up or remediation of hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous
wastes, or petroleum-based materials affecting any such Mortgaged Property, then
the Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic
interest of the Certificateholders. The cost of any such compliance,
containment, cleanup or remediation shall be advanced by the Servicer, subject
to the Servicer's right to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as
provided in Section 3.05(ii).
65
Section 3.04 Collection Account and Distribution Account.
(a) The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and
received pursuant to each Mortgage Loan separate and apart from any of its own
funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Collection
Accounts. Each Collection Account shall be an Eligible Account.
The Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account on a daily basis
within two Business Days of receipt, and retain therein, the following payments
and collections received or made by it after the Cut-off Date with respect to
the Mortgage Loans:
(i) all payments on account of principal, including Principal
Prepayments, on the Mortgage Loans;
(ii) all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans
adjusted to the Mortgage Interest Rate less the Servicing Fee Rate;
(iii) all proceeds from a Cash Liquidation;
(iv) all Insurance Proceeds including amounts required to be
deposited pursuant to Section 3.10, other than proceeds to be held in the Escrow
Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or
released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicer's normal servicing
procedures, the loan documents or applicable law;
(v) all Condemnation Proceeds affecting any Mortgaged Property
which are not released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicer's normal
servicing procedures, the loan documents or applicable law; and
(vi) any amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer in
connection with any REO Property pursuant to Section 3.13.
Any interest paid on funds deposited in the Collection Account, subject
to Section 3.25, shall accrue to the benefit of the Servicer and the Servicer
shall be entitled to retain and withdraw such interest from the Collection
Account pursuant to Section 3.05(v). The foregoing requirements for deposit from
the Collection Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that,
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late
payment charges, prepayment charges that are not prepayment penalties, and
assumption fees need not be deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account.
(b) On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Trustee shall establish and
maintain one or more accounts (such account or accounts, the "Distribution
Account"), held in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders. On behalf of
the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee in immediately
available funds for deposit in the Distribution Account by the close of business
New York time on the Servicer Remittance Date, that portion of the Available
Funds (calculated without regard to the references in the definition thereof to
amounts that may be deposited to the Distribution Account from a different
source as provided herein) then on deposit in the Collection Account. Amounts in
the Distribution Account shall be deemed to be held on behalf of the related
REMICs and the Grantor Trust in accordance with the REMIC distributions set
forth in Section 4.08. Funds on deposit in the Distribution Account will remain
uninvested.
66
(c) Funds in the Collection Account may be invested in Permitted
Investments in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 3.25. The
Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee certifying the location of the
Collection Account maintained by it when established and prior to any change
thereof. The Trustee shall give notice to the Servicer and the Depositor of the
location of the Distribution Account when established and prior to any change
thereof.
(d) In the event the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for
deposit in the Distribution Account any amount not required to be deposited
therein, it may at any time in writing request that the Trustee withdraw such
amount from the Distribution Account and remit to the Servicer any such amount,
any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. In addition, the Servicer
shall deliver to the Trustee from time to time for deposit, and the Trustee
shall so deposit, in the Distribution Account in respect of REMIC 1:
(i) any Advances, as required pursuant to Section 4.07;
(ii) any Stayed Funds, as soon as permitted by the federal
bankruptcy court having jurisdiction in such matters;
(iii) any prepayment penalties or amounts in connection with
the waiver of such prepayment penalties, in each case required to be deposited
pursuant to Section 3.01;
(iv) any amounts required to be deposited in the Distribution
Account pursuant to Sections 2.03, 3.04, 3.15, 3.16, 3.23 or 4.07; and
(v) any amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer
pursuant to Section 3.11 in connection with the deductible clause in any blanket
hazard insurance policy, such deposit being made from the Servicer's own funds,
without reimbursement therefor.
(e) Promptly upon receipt of any Stayed Funds, whether from the
Servicer, a trustee in bankruptcy, or federal bankruptcy court or other source,
the Trustee shall notify the Servicer of such receipt and deposit such funds in
the Distribution Account, subject to withdrawal thereof as permitted hereunder.
Section 3.05 Permitted Withdrawals From the Collection Account.
The Servicer may, from time to time, withdraw from the Collection
Account for the following purposes:
(i) to remit to the Trustee for deposit in the
Distribution Account the amounts required to be so remitted pursuant to Section
3.04(b) or permitted to be so remitted pursuant to the first sentence of Section
3.04(d) or clause (ii) of the first sentence of the second paragraph of Section
4.07(b);
(ii) to reimburse itself for (a) Advances and Servicing
Advances to the extent of amounts received on the related Mortgage Loan which
represent payments of (x) principal and/or interest respecting which any such
Advance was made or (y) Condemnation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation
Proceeds respecting which any such Servicing Advance was made; or (b) any
unreimbursed Advances to the extent of funds held in the Collection Account for
future distributions that were not included in Available Funds for the preceding
Distribution Date (provided, however, any funds so applied will be replaced by
the Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account no later than one Business Day
prior to the Distribution Date on which such funds are required to be
distributed) and to reimburse itself for Advances and Servicing Advances made in
connection with the modification of a Mortgage Loan where (x) such advance is
added to the unpaid principal balance or (y) a portion of the unpaid principal
balance of the Mortgage Loan is forgiven;
67
(iii) to reimburse itself for unreimbursed Servicing
Advances, any unpaid Servicing Fees and for unreimbursed Advances to the extent
that such amounts are deemed to be Nonrecoverable Advances and to reimburse
itself for such amounts to the extent that such amounts are nonrecoverable from
the disposition of the related REO Property or have been written-off pursuant to
Section 3.13 hereof;
(iv) to reimburse itself for any amounts paid pursuant to
Section 3.03 (and not otherwise previously reimbursed);
(v) to pay to itself as servicing compensation (a) any
interest earned on funds in the Collection Account (all such interest to be
withdrawn monthly not later than each Servicer Remittance Date) and (b) the
Servicing Fee from that portion of any payment or recovery as to interest to a
particular Mortgage Loan to the extent not retained pursuant to Section
3.04(ii);
(vi) to pay or reimburse itself for any amounts payable or
paid pursuant to Section 6.03 (and not otherwise previously reimbursed) and to
reimburse itself as set forth in Section 9.01(c); and
(vii) to clear and terminate the Collection Account upon
the termination of this Agreement.
The foregoing requirements for withdrawal from the Collection Account
shall be exclusive. In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the Collection
Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time
withdraw such amount from the Collection Account, any provision herein to the
contrary notwithstanding.
Section 3.06 Establishment of Escrow Account; Deposits in Escrow
Account.
The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received
pursuant to each Mortgage Loan which constitute Escrow Payments separate and
apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and
maintain one or more Escrow Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand
accounts. A copy of such letter agreement shall be furnished to the Trustee upon
request. The Escrow Account shall be an Eligible Account.
The Servicer shall deposit in the Escrow Account on a daily basis
within two Business Days of receipt, and retain therein, (i) all Escrow Payments
collected on account of the Mortgage Loans, for the purpose of effecting timely
payment of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement, and
(ii) all Insurance Proceeds which are to be applied to the restoration or repair
of any Mortgaged Property. The Servicer shall make withdrawals therefrom only to
effect such payments as are required under this Agreement, and for such other
purposes as shall be set forth in, or in accordance with, Section 3.07. The
Servicer shall be entitled to retain any interest paid on funds deposited in the
Escrow Account by the depository institution other than interest on escrowed
funds required by law to be paid to the Mortgagor and, to the extent required by
the related Mortgage Loan or Applicable Regulations, the Servicer shall pay
interest on escrowed funds to the Mortgagor notwithstanding that the Escrow
Account is non-interest bearing or that interest paid thereon is insufficient
for such purposes.
68
Section 3.07 Permitted Withdrawals From Escrow Account.
Withdrawals from the Escrow Account may be made by the Servicer (i) to
effect timely payments of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, fire,
flood and hazard insurance premiums, Primary Insurance Policy premiums, if
applicable, and comparable items, (ii) to reimburse the Servicer for any
Servicing Advance made by the Servicer with respect to a related Mortgage Loan
but only from amounts received on the related Mortgage Loan which represent late
payments or Late Collections of Escrow Payments thereunder, (iii) to refund to
the Mortgagor any funds as may be determined to be overages, (iv) for transfer
to the Collection Account in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (v)
for application to restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property, (vi) to pay
to the Servicer, or to the Mortgagor to the extent required by the related
Mortgage Loan or Applicable Regulations, any interest paid on the funds
deposited in the Escrow Account, (vii) to clear and terminate the Escrow Account
on the termination of this Agreement, (viii) to transfer to the Collection
Account any insurance proceeds, or (ix) in the case of FHA Loans, for transfer
to the Collection Account, fire and hazard insurance proceeds and Escrow
Payments with respect to any Mortgage Loan where the FHA, as the case may be,
has directed application of such funds as a credit against the proceeds of the
FHA Insurance Contract. As part of its servicing duties, the Servicer shall pay
to the Mortgagor interest on funds in the Escrow Account, to the extent required
by the related Mortgage Loan or Applicable Regulations, and to the extent that
interest earned on funds in the Escrow Account is insufficient, shall pay such
interest from its own funds, without any reimbursement therefor.
In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the Escrow Account any
amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such
amount from the Escrow Account, any provision herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.
Section 3.08 Payment of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges; Collections
Thereunder.
With respect to each first lien Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall
maintain accurate records reflecting the status of ground rents, taxes,
assessments, water rates and other charges which are or may become a lien upon
the Mortgaged Property and the status of Primary Insurance Policy premiums and
fire, flood and hazard insurance coverage and shall obtain, from time to time,
all bills for the payment of such charges (including renewal premiums) and shall
effect payment thereof prior to the applicable penalty or termination date and
at a time appropriate for securing maximum discounts allowable, employing for
such purpose deposits of the Mortgagor in the Escrow Account which shall have
been estimated and accumulated by the Servicer in amounts sufficient for such
purposes, as allowed under the terms of the Mortgage or Applicable Regulations.
To the extent that a Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Servicer
shall (i) determine whether any such payments are made by the Mortgagor in a
manner and at a time that is necessary to avoid the loss of the Mortgaged
Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure as a result of a tax lien and (ii)
ensure that all insurance required to be maintained on the Mortgaged Property
pursuant to this Agreement is maintained. If any such payment has not been made
and the Servicer receives notice of a tax lien with respect to the Mortgage Loan
being imposed, the Servicer will, to the extent required to avoid loss of the
Mortgaged Property, advance or cause to be advanced funds necessary to discharge
such lien on the Mortgaged Property. The Servicer assumes full responsibility
for the payment of all such bills and shall effect payments of all such bills
irrespective of the Mortgagor's faithful performance in the payment of same or
the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make Servicing Advances from its own
funds to effect such payments.
The Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, as mortgagee, will maintain in
full force and effect (to the extent a Mortgage Loan has a Primary Insurance
Policy) a Primary Insurance Policy issued by a Qualified Insurer with respect to
each Mortgage Loan for which such coverage is required. Such coverage will be
maintained until the Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio of the related Mortgage Loan
is reduced to 80% or less. The Servicer will not cancel or refuse to renew any
Primary Insurance Policy in effect on the Closing Date that is required to be
kept in force under this Agreement unless a replacement Primary Insurance Policy
for such cancelled or non-renewed policy is obtained from and maintained with a
Qualified Insurer. The Servicer shall not take any action which would result in
non-coverage under any applicable Primary Insurance Policy of any loss which,
but for the actions of the Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. In
connection with any assumption or substitution agreement entered into or to be
entered into pursuant to Section 3.14, the Servicer shall promptly notify the
insurer under the related Primary Insurance Policy, if any, of such assumption
or substitution of liability in accordance with the terms of such policy and
shall take all actions which may be required by such insurer as a condition to
the continuation of coverage under the Primary Insurance Policy. If such Primary
Insurance Policy is terminated as a result of such assumption or substitution of
liability, the Servicer shall obtain a replacement Primary Insurance Policy as
provided above.
69
In connection with its activities as servicer, the Servicer agrees to
prepare and present, on behalf of itself and the Trustee, claims to the insurer
under any Primary Insurance Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the
terms of such policies and, in this regard, to take such action as shall be
necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Insurance Policy respecting a
defaulted Mortgage Loan. Pursuant to Section 3.04, any amounts collected by the
Servicer under any Primary Insurance Policy shall be deposited in the Collection
Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.05.
Section 3.09 Transfer of Accounts.
The Servicer may transfer the Collection Account or the Escrow Account
to a different depository institution from time to time. Upon such transfer, the
Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and the Depositor, a certification or
letter agreement, as the case may be, as required pursuant to Sections 3.04 and
3.06.
Section 3.10 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.
The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each first lien Mortgage
Loan fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage as is customary in the
area where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which is at least
equal to the lesser of (i) the amount necessary to fully compensate for any
damage or loss to the improvements which are a part of such property on a
replacement cost basis, (ii) the Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan, in each
case in an amount not less than such amount as is necessary to prevent the
Mortgagor and/or the Mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer or (iii) the amount
required under applicable HUD/FHA/VA regulations. If the Mortgaged Property is
in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Flood Emergency Management
Agency as having special flood hazards and flood insurance has been made
available, the Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy
meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance
Administration with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, in an amount
representing coverage not less than the least of (i) the Principal Balance of
the Mortgage Loan, (ii) the maximum insurable value of the improvements securing
such Mortgage Loan or (iii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available
under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended. The Servicer shall
also maintain on the REO Property for the benefit of the Certificateholders, (x)
fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least
equal to the replacement cost of the improvements which are a part of such
property, (y) public liability insurance and, (z) to the extent required and
available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, flood
insurance in an amount as provided above. Any amounts collected by the Servicer
under any such policies other than amounts to be deposited in the Escrow Account
and applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or REO
Property, or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicer's normal
servicing procedures, shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to
withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.05. It is understood and agreed that no
earthquake or other additional insurance is required to be maintained by the
Servicer or the Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in respect of the
Mortgage Loan, other than pursuant to such Applicable Regulations as shall at
any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance. All such
policies shall be endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses with loss payable to
the Servicer and shall provide for at least thirty days prior written notice of
any cancellation, reduction in the amount of or material change in coverage to
the Servicer. The Servicer shall not interfere with the Mortgagor's freedom of
choice in selecting either his insurance carrier or agent, provided, however,
that the Servicer shall not accept any such insurance policies from insurance
companies unless such companies currently reflect a general policy rating of
B:VI or better in Best's Key Rating Guide and are licensed to do business in the
state wherein the property subject to the policy is located.

Section 3.11 Maintenance of Mortgage Impairment Insurance Policy.
In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket
policy issued by an insurer that has a general policy rating of B:VI or better
in Best's Key Rating Guide insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage
Loans, then, to the extent such policy provides coverage in an amount equal to
the amount required pursuant to Section 3.10 and otherwise complies with all
other requirements of Section 3.10, it shall conclusively be deemed to have
satisfied its obligations as set forth in Section 3.10, it being understood and
agreed that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the
Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the
related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with Section 3.10,
and there shall have been a loss which would have been covered by such policy,
deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account the amount not
otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause,
which amount shall not be reimbursable to the Servicer from the Trust Fund. In
connection with its activities as servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer
agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of the Trustee, claims under any such
blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy.
Upon request of the Trustee, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to the
Trustee a certified true copy of such policy and a statement from the insurer
thereunder that such policy shall in no event be terminated or materially
modified without thirty days prior written notice to the Trustee.
Section 3.12 Fidelity Bond, Errors and Omissions Insurance.
The Servicer shall maintain, at its own expense, a blanket fidelity
bond (the "Fidelity Bond") and an errors and omissions insurance policy, with
broad coverage with financially responsible companies on all officers, employees
or other persons acting in any capacity with regard to the Mortgage Loans to
handle funds, money, documents and papers relating to the Mortgage Loans. The
Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions insurance shall be in the form of the
Mortgage Banker's Blanket Bond and shall protect and insure the Servicer against
losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and omissions and
negligent acts of such persons. Such Fidelity Bond shall also protect and insure
the Servicer against losses in connection with the failure to maintain any
insurance policies required pursuant to this Agreement and the release or
satisfaction of a Mortgage Loan without having obtained payment in full of the
indebtedness secured thereby. No provision of this Section 3.12 requiring the
Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the
Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. The
minimum coverage under any such bond and insurance policy shall be at least
equal to the corresponding amounts required by Xxxxxx Mae in the Xxxxxx Xxx MBS
Selling and Servicing Guide or by Xxxxxxx Mac in the Xxxxxxx Mac Servicer's
Guide. Upon request of the Trustee, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to
the requesting party a certified true copy of the Fidelity Bond and errors and
omissions insurance policy and a statement from the surety and the insurer that
such Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions insurance policy shall in no event
be terminated or materially modified without thirty days' prior written notice
to the Trustee.
71
Section 3.13 Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property and
Certain Delinquent Mortgage Loans.
(a) In the event that title to a Mortgaged Property is acquired in
foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale
shall be taken (pursuant to a limited power of attorney to be provided by the
Trustee to the Servicer) in the name of the Trustee or a nominee thereof, on
behalf of the Certificateholders, or in the event the Trustee or a nominee
thereof is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the
state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under
the "doing business" or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or
certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as
shall be consistent with an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Servicer from an
attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is
located. Any Person or Persons holding such title other than the Trustee shall
acknowledge in writing that such title is being held as nominee for the benefit
of the Trustee.
(b) 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 Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property before the end of
the third calendar year beginning after the year of its acquisition by the Trust
Fund for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or if the Trust Fund has
received (at the expense of the Trust Fund) from the Internal Revenue Service an
extension of the period during which it may hold such REO Property without such
REO Property failing to be treated as "foreclosure property" (within the meaning
of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code), before the end of such extension, unless the
Servicer obtains an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Servicer and the
Trustee, to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such REO Property
subsequent to such period will not: (i) result in the imposition of any tax on
"prohibited transactions" as defined in Section 860F of the Code; or (ii) cause
any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC 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 Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the
Collection Account for any costs incurred in obtaining such Opinion of Counsel,
as provided in Section 3.05.
Subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations as shall at
any time be in force, and notwithstanding any other provisions 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 any REMIC constituting part of
the Trust Fund to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the income
earned from such REO Property, including any taxes imposed by reason of Sections
860F or 860G(c) of the Code, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and
hold harmless the Trust Fund with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.
The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO
Property for the Certificateholders and the Trust Fund solely for the purpose of
its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such REO
Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by the related REMIC of
any "income from non-permitted assets" within the meaning of Section
860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code, or any "net income from foreclosure property" which
is subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions. The Servicer shall cause each
REO Property to be inspected promptly upon the acquisition of title thereto and
shall cause each REO Property to be inspected at least annually thereafter. The
Servicer shall make or cause to be made a written report of each such
inspection. Such reports shall be retained in the Mortgage Servicing File and
copies thereof shall be forwarded by the Servicer to the Trustee upon request.
The Servicer shall attempt to sell the same (and may temporarily rent the same)
on such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of
the Certificateholders and the Trust Fund.
72
With respect to each REO Property, the Servicer shall account
separately for each REO Property with respect to all funds collected and
received in connection with the operation of such REO Property.
The Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited, on a daily basis,
within two Business Days of receipt, in the Collection Account, all revenues
received with respect to each REO Property and shall withdraw therefrom funds
necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the related
REO Property, including the cost of maintaining any hazard insurance pursuant to
Section 3.10 hereof and the fees of any managing agent acting on behalf of the
Servicer.
The Servicer shall furnish to the Trustee, on each Servicer Remittance
Date, an operating statement for each REO Property covering the operation of
each REO Property for the previous month. Such operating statement shall be
accompanied by such other information as the Trustee shall reasonably request.
The Servicer shall use its best efforts to dispose of the REO Property
as promptly as is practically consistent with protecting the Certificateholders'
interests.
Each REO Disposition shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price
and upon such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best
interest of the Certificateholders. If as of the date title to any REO Property
was acquired by the Servicer there were outstanding unreimbursed Servicing
Advances with respect to the REO Property or the related Mortgage Loan, the
Servicer, upon an REO Disposition of such REO Property, shall be entitled to
reimbursement for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances from proceeds
received in connection with such REO Disposition. The proceeds from the REO
Disposition, net of any payment to the Servicer as provided above, shall be
deposited in the Collection Account for distribution on the succeeding Servicer
Remittance Date in accordance with Section 4.01.
Any REO Disposition shall be for cash only (unless changes in the REMIC
Provisions made subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other
consideration and an Opinion of Counsel is obtained by the Servicer to the
effect that such sale shall not cause any REMIC constituting part of the Trust
Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC).
(c) The Servicer may write-off any Second Lien Mortgage Loan that
has been Delinquent for a period of 180 days or more if the Servicer determines
that any amount that could be recovered on such Mortgage Loan would be less than
the cost required to achieve such recovery.
Section 3.14 Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption and Substitution
Agreements.
When a Mortgaged Property has been or is about to be conveyed by the
Mortgagor, the Servicer shall, to the extent it has knowledge of such conveyance
or prospective conveyance, exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of the
related Mortgage Loan under any "due-on-sale" clause contained in the related
Mortgage or Mortgage Note; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not
exercise any such right if the "due-on-sale" clause, in the reasonable belief of
the Servicer, is not enforceable under applicable law. An Opinion of Counsel at
the expense of the Servicer (which expense shall constitute a Servicing Advance)
delivered to the Trustee and the Depositor to the foregoing effect shall
conclusively establish the reasonableness of such belief. In such event, the
Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to enter into an assumption and
modification agreement with the Person to whom such property has been or is
about to be conveyed, pursuant to which such Person becomes liable under the
Mortgage Note and, unless prohibited by applicable law or the Mortgage, the
Mortgagor remains liable thereon. If the foregoing is not permitted under
applicable law, the Servicer is authorized to enter into a substitution of
liability agreement with such Person, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor
is released from liability and such Person is substituted as Mortgagor and
becomes liable under the Note. In addition to the foregoing, the Servicer shall
not be required to enforce any "due-on-sale" clause if, in the reasonable
judgment of the Servicer, entering into an assumption and modification agreement
with a person to whom such Mortgaged Property shall be conveyed and releasing
the original Mortgagor from liability would be in the best interests of the
Certificateholders. The Mortgage Loan, as assumed, shall conform in all respects
to the requirements, representations and warranties of this Agreement. The
Servicer shall notify the Trustee that any such assumption or substitution
agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Trustee (or the Custodian, as
the case may be) the original copy of such assumption or substitution agreement
(indicating the Mortgage File to which it relates) which copy shall be added by
the Trustee (or the Custodian, as the case may be) to the related Mortgage File
and which shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to
the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part
thereof. The Servicer shall be responsible for recording any such assumption or
substitution agreements. In connection with any such assumption or substitution
agreement, the Monthly Payment on the related Mortgage Loan shall not be changed
but shall remain as in effect immediately prior to the assumption or
substitution, the stated maturity or outstanding principal amount of such
Mortgage Loan shall not be changed nor shall any required monthly payments of
principal or interest be deferred or forgiven. Any fee collected by the Servicer
for consenting to any such conveyance or entering into an assumption or
substitution agreement shall be retained by or paid to the Servicer as
additional servicing compensation.
73
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this
Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any
other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a
Mortgage Loan by operation of law or any assumption which the Servicer may be
restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever.
Section 3.15 Notification of Adjustments.
On each Adjustment Date, the Servicer shall make Mortgage Interest Rate
adjustments for each Group I Mortgage Loan in compliance with the requirements
of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note and Applicable Regulations. The
Servicer shall execute and deliver the notices required by each Mortgage and
Mortgage Note and Applicable Regulations regarding Mortgage Interest Rate
adjustments. The Servicer also shall provide timely notification to the Trustee
of all applicable data and information regarding such Mortgage Interest Rate
adjustments and the Servicer's methods of implementing such Mortgage Interest
Rate adjustments. Upon the discovery by the Servicer or the Trustee that the
Servicer has failed to adjust or has incorrectly adjusted a Mortgage Interest
Rate or a Monthly Payment pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Note and
Mortgage, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the
Distribution Account from its own funds the amount of any interest loss caused
thereby without reimbursement therefor; provided, however, the Servicer shall be
held harmless with respect to any Mortgage Interest Rate adjustments made by any
servicer prior to the Servicer.
Section 3.16 Optional Purchases of Mortgage Loans by Servicer.
The Servicer (or an affiliate of the Servicer) may, at its option,
repurchase a Mortgage Loan or REO Property which becomes 120 or more days
Delinquent or for which the Servicer has accepted a deed in lieu of foreclosure,
during the period commencing on the first day of the calendar quarter succeeding
the calendar quarter in which the Initial Delinquency Date occurred with respect
to such Mortgage Loan and ending on the last Business Day of such calendar
quarter. If the Servicer (or an affiliate of the Servicer) does not exercise its
purchase right with respect to a Mortgage Loan during the period specified in
the preceding sentence, such Mortgage Loan shall thereafter again become
eligible for purchase pursuant to the preceding sentence only after the Mortgage
Loan ceases to be 120 days or more Delinquent and thereafter becomes 120 days
Delinquent again. The "Initial Delinquency Date" of a Mortgage Loan shall mean
the date on which the Mortgage Loan first became 120 days Delinquent. Prior to
repurchase pursuant to this Section 3.16, the Servicer shall be required to
continue to make monthly advances pursuant to Section 4.07. The Servicer shall
not use any procedure in selecting Mortgage Loans to be repurchased which is
materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders. The Servicer
shall purchase such (i) delinquent Mortgage Loan at a price equal to the
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan plus accrued interest thereon at the
Mortgage Interest Rate from the date to which interest has last been paid to the
Trust Fund to the date of purchase plus any unreimbursed Servicing Advances and
Advances or (ii) REO Property at its fair market value as determined in good
faith by the Servicer. Any such repurchase of a Mortgage Loan or REO Property
pursuant to this Section 3.16(a) shall be accomplished by delivery to the
Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account of the amount of the purchase
price. The Trustee shall immediately effectuate the conveyance of such
delinquent Mortgage Loan or REO Property to the Servicer to the extent
necessary, including the prompt delivery of all necessary documentation provided
by it to the Servicer.
74
Section 3.17 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Files.
(a) Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan (including any
liquidation of such Mortgage Loan through foreclosure or otherwise, or the
receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed
in a manner customary for such purposes), the Servicer shall deliver to the
Trustee (or the Custodian as the case may be) two executed copies of a completed
"Request for Release" in the form of Exhibit E. Upon receipt of such Request for
Release of Documents, the Trustee (or the Custodian as the case may be) shall
promptly release the related Mortgage File, in trust to (i) the Servicer, or
(ii) such other party identified in the related Request for Release. Upon any
such payment in full, or the receipt of such notification that such funds have
been placed in escrow, the Servicer shall direct the Trustee in writing to
execute an instrument of satisfaction (or assignment of Mortgage without
recourse, representation or warranty) regarding the Mortgaged Property relating
to such Mortgage, which instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case
may be, shall be delivered to the Person or Persons entitled thereto against
receipt therefor of payment in full, it being understood and agreed that no
expense incurred in connection with such instrument of satisfaction or
assignment, as the case may be, shall be chargeable to the Collection Account.
In lieu of executing any such satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be,
the Servicer may prepare and submit to the Trustee a satisfaction (or assignment
without recourse, representation or warranty if requested by the Person or
Persons entitled thereto) in form for execution by the Trustee with all
requisite information completed by the Servicer; in such event, the Trustee
shall execute and acknowledge such satisfaction or assignment, as the case may
be, and deliver the same with the related Mortgage File, as aforesaid.
(b) From time to time and as appropriate in the servicing of any
Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, foreclosure or other comparable
conversion of a Mortgage Loan or collection under any insurance policy relating
to a Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall (except in the case of the payment or
liquidation pursuant to which the related Mortgage File is released to an escrow
agent or an employee, agent or attorney of the Trustee), upon written request of
the Servicer and delivery to the Trustee (or the Custodian, as the case may be)
of two executed copies of a "Request for Release" in the form of Exhibit E
signed by a Servicing Officer, release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer
and shall execute such documents as shall be necessary to the prosecution of any
such proceedings, including, without limitation, an assignment without recourse,
representation or warranty of the related Mortgage to the Servicer. Such receipt
shall obligate the Servicer to return the Mortgage File to the Trustee (or the
Custodian, as the case may be) when the need therefor by the Servicer no longer
exists unless the Mortgage Loan shall be liquidated, in which case, upon receipt
of a Request for Release evidencing such liquidation, the receipt shall be
released by the Trustee (or the Custodian, as the case may be) to the Servicer.
75
(c) Subject to Section 3.01, the Servicer shall have the right to
accept applications of Mortgagors for consent to (i) partial releases of
Mortgages, (ii) alterations, (iii) removal, demolition or division of properties
subject to Mortgages and (iv) second mortgage subordination agreements. No
application for approval shall be considered by the Servicer unless: (w) it has
received an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee (which opinion shall
not be an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Fund) that such sale, disposition,
substitution, acquisition or contribution will not affect adversely the status
of any REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund as a REMIC or cause any REMIC
constituting part of the Trust Fund to be subject to a tax on "prohibited
transactions" or "contributions" pursuant to the REMIC Provisions; (x) the
provisions of the related Note and Mortgage have been complied with; (y) the
Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio and debt-to-income ratio after any release does not
exceed the maximum Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio and debt-to-income ratio
established in accordance with the underwriting standards of the Mortgage Loans;
and (z) the lien priority of the related Mortgage is not affected. Upon receipt
by the Trustee of a Servicing Officer's certificate setting forth the action
proposed to be taken in respect of a particular Mortgage Loan and certifying
that the criteria set forth in the immediately preceding sentence have been
satisfied, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer the consent or
partial release so requested by the Servicer. A proposed form of consent or
partial release, as the case may be, shall accompany any Servicing Officer's
certificate delivered by the Servicer pursuant to this paragraph.
Section 3.18 Servicing Compensation.
As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Servicer shall be
entitled to retain the amount of the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage
Loan (including REO Properties). The Servicer shall be entitled to retain
additional servicing compensation in the form of release fees, bad check
charges, assumption fees, modification or extension fees, late payment charges,
customary real-estate referral fees or any other service-related fees, Insurance
Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds not required to be deposited in the Collection
Account or the Distribution Account and similar items, to the extent collected
from Mortgagors.
Section 3.19 Annual Statement as to Compliance.
(a) The Servicer, at its own expense, will deliver to the Trustee
and the Depositor, not later than March 15 of each year, commencing in 2006, a
Servicing Officer's certificate stating, as to each signer thereof, that (i) a
review of the activities of the Servicer during such preceding fiscal year (or
such shorter period in the case of the first such report) and of performance
under this Agreement has been made under such officers' supervision, and (ii) to
the best of such officers' knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has
fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement for such year, or, if there
has been a default in the fulfillment of all such obligations, specifying each
such default known to such officers and the nature and status thereof including
the steps being taken by the Servicer to remedy such default.
(b) Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the
Trustee is for informational purposes only and its receipt of such shall not
constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or
determinable, from information contained therein, including the Servicer's
compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is
entitled to rely exclusively on Officers' Certificates).
76
Section 3.20 Annual Independent Certified Public Accountants' Reports.
(a) Not later than March 15 of each year, commencing in 2006, the
Servicer, at its expense, shall cause a nationally recognized firm of
independent certified public accountants to furnish to the Trustee and the
Depositor a report stating that (i) it has obtained a letter of representation
regarding certain matters from the management of the Servicer which includes an
assertion that the Servicer has complied with certain minimum residential
mortgage loan servicing standards, identified in either the Uniform Single
Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers established by the Mortgage Bankers
Association of America or the Audit Program for Mortgages serviced by Xxxxxxx
Mac, with respect to the servicing of residential mortgage loans during the most
recently completed fiscal year and (ii) on the basis of an examination conducted
by such firm in accordance with standards established by the American Institute
of Certified Public Accountants, such representation is fairly stated in all
material respects, subject to such exceptions and other qualifications that may
be appropriate. Immediately upon receipt of such report, the Servicer shall
furnish a copy of such report to the Trustee, the Depositor and each Rating
Agency. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any
Certificateholder upon request at the Servicer's expense, provided that such
statement is delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee.
(b) Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the
Trustee is for informational purposes only and their receipt of such shall not
constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or
determinable, from information contained therein, including the Servicer's
compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to the Trustee is entitled to
rely exclusively on Officers' Certificates).
Section 3.21 Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding
the Mortgage Loans.
The Servicer shall provide to the Trustee, Certificateholders that are
federally insured savings and loan associations, the Office of Thrift
Supervision, the FDIC and the supervisory agents and examiners of each of the
foregoing (which, in the case of supervisory agents and examiners, may be
required by applicable state and federal regulations) access to the
documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans, such access being afforded without
charge but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the
offices of the Servicer designated by it.
Section 3.22 Reserved.
Section 3.23 Obligations of the Servicer in Respect of Compensating
Interest.
Not later than the close of business on each Servicer Remittance Date,
the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution
Account an amount ("Compensating Interest") equal to the lesser of (A) the
aggregate of the Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the Mortgage Loans for the
related Distribution Date resulting from Principal Prepayments on the Mortgage
Loans during the related Prepayment Period and (B) 50% of its aggregate
Servicing Fee received in the related Collection Period. The Servicer shall
apply Compensating Interest to offset any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the
Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall not have the right to reimbursement for any
amounts remitted to the Trustee in respect of Compensating Interest. Such
amounts so remitted shall be included in the Available Funds and distributed
therewith on the next Distribution Date. The Servicer shall not be obligated to
pay Compensating Interest with respect to Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on
Relief Act Interest Shortfalls.
77
Section 3.24 Obligations of the Servicer in Respect of Mortgage
Interest Rates and Monthly Payments.
In the event that a shortfall in any collection on or liability with
respect to any Mortgage Loan results from or is attributable to adjustments to
Mortgage Interest Rates, Monthly Payments or Principal Balances that were made
by the Servicer in a manner not consistent with the terms of the related
Mortgage Note and this Agreement, the Servicer, upon discovery or receipt of
notice thereof, immediately shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the
Distribution Account from its own funds the amount of any such shortfall and
shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor and
any successor servicer in respect of any such liability. Such indemnities shall
survive the termination or discharge of this Agreement.
Section 3.25 Investment of Funds in the Collection Account and the
Distribution Account.
(a) The Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining
the Collection Account to invest the funds in the Collection Account in one or
more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing,
unless payable on demand, (i) no later than the Business Day immediately
preceding the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such
account pursuant to this Agreement, if a Person other than the Trustee is the
obligor thereon, and (ii) no later than the date on which such funds are
required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the
Trustee is the obligor thereon. In the absence of such direction, funds in the
Collection Account shall remain uninvested. All such Permitted Investments shall
be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any investment of funds in the
Collection Account shall be made in the name of the Trustee or the Servicer, as
applicable (in its capacity as such) or in the name of a nominee of the Trustee.
The Trustee shall be entitled to sole possession (except with respect to
investment direction of funds held in the Collection Account) over each such
investment and the income thereon, and any certificate or other instrument
evidencing any such investment shall be delivered directly to the Trustee or its
agent, together with any document of transfer necessary to transfer title to
such investment to the Trustee or its nominee. In the event amounts on deposit
in the Collection Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment
payable on demand, the Trustee shall at the direction of the Servicer:
(x) consistent with any notice required to be given thereunder,
demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such
Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an
amount equal to the lesser of (1) all amounts then payable
thereunder and (2) the amount required to be withdrawn on
such date; and
(y) demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon
determination by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee that
such Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted
Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the
Collection Account.
(b) All income and gain realized from the investment of funds in
the Collection Account shall be for the benefit of the Servicer. The Servicer
shall deposit in the Collection Account the amount of any loss incurred in
respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such account
immediately upon realization of such loss. Funds on deposit in the Distribution
Account will remain uninvested.
(c) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if
any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted
Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any
Permitted Investment, the Trustee may and, subject to Section 8.01 and Section
8.02(a)(v), upon the request of the Holders of Certificates representing more
than 50% of the Voting Rights allocated to any Class of Certificates, shall take
such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance,
including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.
78
The Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of any
insufficiency in any Account held by the Trustee resulting from any investment
loss on any Permitted Investment included therein (except to the extent that the
Trustee is the obligor and has defaulted thereon).
Section 3.26 Liability of Servicer; Indemnification.
(a) Subject to clause (b) below and Section 6.03, the Servicer (or
its successor hereunder) indemnifies and holds the Trustee, the Seller, the
Depositor and each Certificateholder harmless against any and all claims,
losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs,
judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Trustee, the
Depositor and any Certificateholder may sustain in any way related to the
failure of the Servicer to perform its duties and service the Mortgage Loans in
compliance with the Servicing Standards. The Servicer shall immediately notify
the Trustee, the Depositor and each Certificateholder if a claim is made that
may result in such claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees or
related costs, judgments, or any other costs, fees and expenses, and the
Servicer shall assume (with the consent of the Trustee) the defense of any such
claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including reasonable counsel
fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may
be entered against the Servicer, Trustee, the Depositor and/or Certificateholder
in respect of such claim. The provisions of this Section 3.26 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement, the termination or resignation of the Servicer or
the Trustee and the payment of the outstanding Certificates.
(b) None of the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, or any of the
directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor, the Seller or the
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
Seller or the Servicer or any such Person against any breach of warranties or
representations made herein, or against any specific liability imposed on the
Servicer for a breach of the Servicing Standard, or against any liability which
would otherwise be imposed by reason of its respective willful misfeasance, bad
faith, fraud or negligence in the performance of its duties or by reasons of
negligent disregard of its respective obligations or duties hereunder.
The Depositor, the Servicer, the Seller and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer, may rely in good
faith on any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and
submitted by any appropriate Person with respect to any matters arising
hereunder. The Depositor, the Servicer, the Seller, and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer shall be
indemnified and held harmless by the Trust Fund 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 incurred in
connection with any legal action incurred by reason of its respective
misfeasance, bad faith, fraud or negligence, a breach of a representation or
warranty hereunder or (in the case of the Servicer) a breach of the Servicing
Standard in the performance of its respective duties or by reason of negligent
disregard of its respective obligations or duties hereunder. Neither the
Depositor, the Seller nor the Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear
in, prosecute or defend any legal action unless such action is related to its
respective duties under this Agreement and in its opinion does not expose it to
any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Depositor, the Seller or
the Servicer may in its discretion undertake any action related to its
obligations hereunder which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to

of the Certificateholders hereunder.

Section 3.29 Periodic Filings.
(a) The Trustee and the Servicer shall reasonably cooperate with
the Depositor in connection with the Trust's satisfying the reporting
requirements under the Exchange Act. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Trustee shall prepare on behalf of the Trust any monthly Current
Reports on Form 8-K (each, a "Monthly Form 8-K") and Annual Reports on Form 10-K
customary for similar securities as required by the Exchange Act and the rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, and the
Trustee shall sign (other than any Annual Reports on Form 10-K) and file (via
the Securities and Exchange Commission's Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval
System) such forms on behalf of the Trust. The Servicer shall sign any Annual
Reports on Form 10-K.
(b) Each Monthly Form 8-K shall be filed by the Trustee within 15
days after each Distribution Date (commencing on the Distribution Date occurring
in March 2006 and ending with the Distribution Date following the filing of the
Form 15 Suspension Notification as set forth in Section 3.29(h) hereof),
including a copy of the statement set forth in Section 4.06(a) hereof for such
Distribution Date as an exhibit thereto. Prior to March 30th of each year (or
such earlier date as may be required by the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission), the Trustee shall file a
Form 10-K, in substance as required by applicable law or applicable Securities
and Exchange Commission staff's interpretations. Such Form 10-K shall include as
exhibits the Servicer's annual statement of compliance described under Section
3.19 and the accountant's report described under Section 3.20, in each case to
the extent they have been timely delivered to the Trustee. If they are not so
timely delivered, the Trustee shall file an amended Form 10-K at the expense of
the Seller including such documents as exhibits reasonably promptly after they
are delivered to the Trustee. The Form 10-K shall also include a certification
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit N (the "Certification"), which shall be
signed by the senior officer of the Servicer in charge of servicing.
80
(c) The Trustee shall sign a certification (in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit O) for the benefit of the Servicer and its officers, directors
and Affiliates (provided, however, that the Trustee shall not undertake an
analysis of the accountant's report attached as an exhibit to the Form 10-K). No
later than the 20th day prior to the latest date on which the Form 10-K is
permitted to be filed, without regard to extension (or if such day is not a
Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), the Trustee shall deliver
to the Servicer (i) such certification and (ii) a completed Form 10-K to be
executed by the Servicer. No later than the 10th day prior to the latest date on
which the Form 10-K is permitted to be filed, without regard to extension (or if
such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), the
Servicer shall deliver the signed Form 10-K and the signed Certification to be
filed to the Trustee. In addition, the Trustee shall indemnify and hold harmless
the Servicer and its officers, directors and Affiliates from and against any
losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal
fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of
the Trustee's failure to deliver the certification (in the form attached hereto
as Exhibit O) pursuant to this Section 3.29(c) or any inaccuracy in such
certification, other than any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs
and expenses arising out of the Servicer's breach of its obligations under this
Agreement. If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or
insufficient to hold harmless the Servicer and its officers, directors and
Affiliates, then the Trustee shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by
the Servicer, its officers, directors or Affiliates as a result of the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities of the Servicer, its officers, directors or
Affiliates in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of
the Servicer and its officers, directors and Affiliates on the one hand and the
Trustee on the other.
(d) The Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and
its officers, directors and Affiliates from and against any losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related
costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of the Servicer's
failure to sign and deliver either the Certification or the Form 10-K within the
time frame provided in Section 3.29(c), other than any losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related
costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of the Trustee's
breach of its obligations under this Agreement. If the indemnification provided
for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Trustee and its
officers, directors and Affiliates, then the Servicer shall contribute to the
amount paid or payable by the Trustee, its officers, directors or Affiliates as
a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Trustee, its
officers, directors or Affiliates in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect the relative fault of the Trustee and its officers, directors and
Affiliates on the one hand and the Servicer on the other.
(e) If the Securities and Exchange Commission issues additional
interpretative guidance or promulgates additional rules or regulations, or if
other changes in applicable law occur, that would require the reporting
arrangements, or the allocation of responsibilities with respect thereto,
described in this Section 3.29, to be conducted differently than as described,
the Depositor, Servicer and Trustee will reasonably cooperate to amend the
provisions of this Section 3.29 in order to comply with such amended reporting
requirements and such amendment of this Section 3.29. Any such amendment shall
be made in accordance with the first paragraph of Section 11.01 without further
consent of the Certificateholders and without the requirement to deliver notice
in writing to the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee from the Rating
Agencies that such action will not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the
rating of any outstanding Class of Certificates with respect to which it is a
Rating Agency. Such amendment may result in the reduction of the reports filed
by the Trustee on behalf of the Trust under the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, none of the Depositor, Servicer or Trustee shall be obligated to
enter into any amendment pursuant to this Section 3.29 that adversely affects
its obligations and immunities under this Agreement.
81
(f) In filing any Monthly Form 8-K or Form 10-K, the Trustee shall
not undertake any analysis of, and shall have no responsibility for, any
financial information, accountant's report, certification or other matter
contained therein, except for computations performed by the Trustee and
reflected in the statement set forth in Section 4.06(a) hereof.
(g) Upon any filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
the Trustee shall promptly deliver to the Depositor and the Servicer a copy of
any such executed report, statement or information.
(h) Prior to January 30 of the first year in which the Trustee is
able to do so under applicable law, the Trustee shall file a Form 15 Suspension
Notification with respect to the Trust.
Section 3.30 Advance Facility.
(a) The Servicer is hereby authorized to enter into a financing or
other facility (any such arrangement, an "Advance Facility"), the documentation
for which complies with Section 3.30(e) below, under which (1) the Servicer
assigns or pledges its rights under this Agreement to be reimbursed for any or
all Advances and/or Servicing Advances to (i) a Person, which may be a
special-purpose bankruptcy-remote entity (an "SPV"), (ii) a Person, which may
simultaneously assign or pledge such rights to an SPV or (iii) a lender (a
"Lender"), which, in the case of any Person or SPV of the type described in
either of the preceding clauses (i) or (ii), may directly or through other
assignees and/or pledgees, assign or pledge such rights to a Person, which may
include a trustee acting on behalf of holders of debt instruments (any such
Person or any such Lender, an "Advance Financing Person"), and/or (2) an Advance
Financing Person agrees to fund all the Advances and/or Servicing Advances
required to be made by the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement. No consent of
the Trustee, Certificateholders or any other party shall be required before the
Servicer may enter into an Advance Facility nor shall the Trustee or the
Certificateholders be a third party beneficiary of any obligation of an Advance
Financing Person to the Servicer. Notwithstanding the existence of any Advance
Facility under which an Advance Financing Person agrees to fund Advances and/or
Servicing Advances, (A) the Servicer (i) shall remain obligated pursuant to this
Agreement to make Advances and/or Servicing Advances pursuant to and as required
by this Agreement and (ii) shall not be relieved of such obligations by virtue
of such Advance Facility and (B) neither the Advance Financing Person nor any
Servicer's Assignee (as hereinafter defined) shall have any right to proceed
against or otherwise contact any Mortgagor for the purpose of collecting any
payment that may be due with respect to any related Mortgage Loan or enforcing
any covenant of such Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan documents.
(b) If the Servicer enters into an Advance Facility, the Servicer
and the related Advance Financing Person shall deliver to the Trustee at the
address set forth in Section 11.05 hereof a written notice (an "Advance Facility
Notice"), stating (a) the identity of the Advance Financing Person and (b) the
identity of the Person (the "Servicer's Assignee") that will, subject to Section
3.30(c) hereof, have the right to make withdrawals from the Collection Account
pursuant to Section 3.05 hereof to reimburse previously unreimbursed Advances
and/or Servicing Advances ("Advance Reimbursement Amounts"). Advance
Reimbursement Amounts (i) shall consist solely of amounts in respect of Advances
and/or Servicing Advances for which the Servicer would be permitted to reimburse
itself in accordance with Section 3.05 hereof, assuming the Servicer had made
the related Advance(s) and/or Servicing Advance(s) and (ii) shall not consist of
amounts payable to a successor Servicer in accordance with Section 3.05 hereof
to the extent permitted under Section 3.30(e) below.
(c) Notwithstanding the existence of an Advance Facility, the
Servicer, on behalf of the Advance Financing Person, and the Servicer's Assignee
shall be entitled to receive reimbursements of Advances and/or Servicing
Advances in accordance with Section 3.05 hereof, which entitlement may be
terminated by the Advance Financing Person pursuant to a written notice to the
Trustee in the manner set forth in Section 11.05 hereof. Upon receipt of such
written notice, the Servicer shall no longer be entitled to receive
reimbursement for any Advance Reimbursement Amounts and the Servicer's Assignee
shall immediately have the right to receive from the Collection Account all
Advance Reimbursement Amounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for the
avoidance of doubt, (i) the Servicer and/or the Servicer's Assignee shall only
be entitled to reimbursement of Advance Reimbursement Amounts hereunder pursuant
to Section 3.05 of this Agreement and shall not otherwise be entitled to make
withdrawals of, or receive, Advance Reimbursement Amounts that shall be
deposited in the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.04(b) hereof, and
(ii) none of the Trustee or the Certificateholders shall have any right to, or
otherwise be entitled to, receive any Advance Reimbursement Amounts to which the
Servicer or Servicer's Assignee, as applicable, shall be entitled pursuant to
Section 3.05 hereof. An Advance Facility may be terminated by the joint written
direction of the Servicer and the related Advance Financing Person. Written
notice of such termination shall be delivered to the Trustee in the manner set
forth in Section 11.05 hereof. The Trustee shall have no duty or liability with
respect to the calculation of any Advance Reimbursement Amount and shall be
entitled to rely without independent investigation on the Advance Facility
Notice and on such Servicer's report of the amount of Advance Reimbursement
Amounts and Servicing Advance Reimbursement Amounts that were included in the
remittance from such Servicer to the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.07. Such
Servicer shall maintain and provide to any successor Servicer a detailed
accounting on a loan-by-loan basis as to amounts advanced by, pledged or
assigned to, and reimbursed to any Advance Financing Person. The successor
Servicer shall be entitled to rely on any such information provided by the
predecessor Servicer, and the successor Servicer shall not be liable for any
errors in such information.
82
(d) [Reserved.]
(e) As between a predecessor Servicer and its Advance Financing
Person, on the one hand, and a successor Servicer and its Advance Financing
Person, if any, on the other hand, Advance Reimbursement Amounts on a
loan-by-loan basis with respect to each Mortgage Loan as to which a Advance
and/or Servicing Advance shall have been made and be outstanding shall be
allocated on a "first-in, first out" basis. In the event the Servicer's Assignee
shall have received some or all of an Advance Reimbursement Amount related to
Advances and/or Servicing Advances that were made by a Person other than such
predecessor Servicer or its related Advance Financing Person in error, then such
Servicer's Assignee shall be required to remit any portion of such Advance
Reimbursement Amount to each Person entitled to such portion of such Advance
Reimbursement Amount. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Servicer shall remain entitled to be reimbursed by the Advance Financing Person
for all Advances and/or Servicing Advances funded by the Servicer to the extent
the related Advance Reimbursement Amounts have not been assigned or pledged to
such Advance Financing Person or Servicer's Assignee.
(f) For purposes of any certification of a Servicing Officer of
the Servicer made pursuant to Section 4.07(d), any Nonrecoverable Advance
referred to therein may have been made by such Servicer or any predecessor
Servicer. In making its determination that any Advance or Servicing Advance
theretofore made has become a Nonrecoverable Advance, the Servicer shall apply
the same criteria in making such determination regardless of whether such
Advance or Servicing Advance shall have been made by the Servicer or any
predecessor Servicer.
(g) The Trustee shall not, as a result of the existence of any
Advance Facility, have any additional responsibility to track or monitor Advance
Reimbursement Amounts or any Advance Facility, and is not and shall not be
obligated to make any payment with respect to any Advance Reimbursement Amount.
The Servicer hereby indemnifies the Trustee, the Trust Fund and any successor
Servicer, as applicable, from and against any claims, losses, liabilities or
damages resulting from any claim by the related Advancing Person, except to the
extent that such claim, loss, liability or damage resulted from or arose out of
negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee or the
successor Servicer, or failure by the successor Servicer to remit funds as
required by this Agreement or the commission of an act or omission to act by the
successor Servicer or the Trustee.
83
Any amendment to this Section 3.30 or to any other provision
of this Agreement that may be necessary or appropriate to effect the terms of an
Advance Facility as described generally in this Section 3.30, including
amendments to add provisions relating to a successor Servicer, may be entered
into by the Trustee, the Depositor, the Seller and the Servicer without the
consent of any Certificateholder, provided such amendment complies with Section
11.01 hereof. All reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) of
each party hereto of any such amendment shall be borne solely by the Servicer.
The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that (a) the Advances and/or
Servicing Advances financed by and/or pledged to an Advance Financing Person
under any Advance Facility are obligations owed to the Servicer payable only
from the cash flows and proceeds received under this Agreement for reimbursement
of Advances and/or Servicing Advances only to the extent provided herein, and
the Trustee and the Trust are not, as a result of the existence of any Advance
Facility, obligated or liable to pay any Advances and/or Servicing Advances
financed by the Advance Financing Person; (b) the Servicer will be responsible
for remitting to the Advance Financing Person the applicable amounts collected
by it as reimbursement for Advances and/or Servicing Advances funded by the
Advance Financing Person, subject to the provisions of this Agreement; and (c)
the Trustee shall not have any responsibility to track or monitor the
administration of the financing arrangement between the Servicer and any Advance
Financing Person.

taxation.

reduced to zero. If, after giving effect to the distribution of the Principal
Distribution Amount on any Distribution Date the aggregate Certificate Principal
Balance of the Offered Certificates and Class B-5 and Class B-6 Certificates
exceeds the Pool Balance as of the end of the related Collection Period, such
excess will be allocated against the Class B-6, Class B-5, Class B-4, Class B-3,
Class B-2, Class B-1, Class M-4, Class M-3, Class M-2 and Class M-1
Certificates, in that order, until the respective Certificate Principal Balances

exceeds the greatest of (i) 1.0% of the Pool Balance as of the Cut-off Date,
(ii) two times the amount of the principal balance of the largest Mortgage Loan
as of the date of determination and (iii) an amount equal to the aggregate
principal balances of the Mortgage Loans in the largest zip-code concentration

Section 4.07 Remittance Reports; Advances.

Date, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee by telecopy (or by such other
means as the Servicer and the Trustee may agree from time to time) a Remittance
Report with respect to the related Distribution Date. On the same date, the
Servicer shall forward to the Trustee by overnight mail a computer readable
magnetic tape or diskette or in such other medium as may be agreed between the
Servicer and the Trustee containing the information set forth in such Remittance
Report with respect to the related Distribution Date. Not later than the close
of business New York time on the Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall
deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee in addition to the information
provided on the Remittance Report, such other information reasonably available
to it with respect to the Mortgage Loans as the Trustee may reasonably request
or order in order for the Trustee to perform the calculations necessary to make
the distributions contemplated by Section 4.01, 4.02 and 4.03 and to prepare the
statements to Certificateholders contemplated by Section 4.06. The Trustee shall
not be responsible to recompute, recalculate or verify any information provided
to it by the Servicer.
(b) The amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer for any
Distribution Date shall equal, subject to Section 4.07(d), the sum of (i) the
aggregate amount of Monthly Payments (net of the related Servicing Fee), due
during the related Collection Period in respect of the Mortgage Loans, which

Property, which REO Property was acquired during or prior to the related
Prepayment Period and as to which such REO Property an REO Disposition did not
occur during the related Prepayment Period, an amount equal to the excess, if
any, of the interest portion of Monthly Payments (net of the related Servicing
Fee) that would have been due on the related Due Date in respect of the related
Mortgage Loans, over the net income from such REO Property deposited in the
Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.13 for distribution on such
Distribution Date. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the Monthly Payment
on each Balloon Mortgage Loan with a delinquent Balloon Payment is equal to the
assumed monthly payment that would have been due on the related Due Date based
on the original principal amortization schedule for such Balloon Mortgage Loan.
The Servicer shall not be required to make any Advances with respect to the
principal portion of the Monthly Payments that would have been due on the
related Due Date with respect to Second Lien Mortgage Loans and shall not make
any Advances with respect to the principal portion of the Monthly Payments that
would have been due on the related Due Date with respect to REO Properties.
On or before the close of business New York time on the Servicer
Remittance Date, the Servicer shall remit in immediately available funds to the
Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the aggregate
amount of Advances, if any, to be made in respect of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties for the related Distribution Date either (i) from its own funds or
(ii) from the Collection Account, to the extent of funds held therein for future
distribution (in which case it will cause to be made an appropriate entry in the
records of the Collection Account that amounts held for future distribution have
been, as permitted by this Section 4.07, used by the Servicer in discharge of
any such Advance) or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii)
aggregating the total amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer with respect
to the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties. In addition, the Servicer shall have
the right to reimburse itself for any such Advance from amounts held from time
to time in the Collection Account to the extent such amounts are not then
required to be distributed. Any amounts held for future distribution and so used
shall be appropriately reflected in the Servicer's records and replaced by the
Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account on or before any future Servicer
Remittance Date to the extent that the Available Funds for the related
Distribution Date (determined without regard to Advances to be made on the
Servicer Remittance Date) shall be less than the total amount that would be
distributed to the Classes of Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01 and
4.02 on such Distribution Date if such amounts held for future distributions had
not been so used to make Advances. The Servicer may reimburse itself from any
amounts in the Collection Account for any prior Advances or Servicing Advances
that have not been reimbursed at the time the Mortgage Loan is modified. The
Trustee will provide notice to the Servicer by telecopy by the close of business
on any Servicer Remittance Date in the event that the amount remitted by the
Servicer to the Trustee on such date is less than the Advances required to be
made by the Servicer for the related Distribution Date, as set forth in the
related Remittance Report.
98
(c) The obligation of the Servicer to make such Advances is
mandatory, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but subject to
(d) below, and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan or REO Property, shall
continue until the earlier of such time as the Trust acquires title to the
related Mortgaged Property or such Mortgage Loan is paid in full by the
Mortgagor or disposed of by the Trust, or until the recovery of all Liquidation
Proceeds thereon.
(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Advance or
Servicing Advance shall be required to be made hereunder by the Servicer if such
Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. The determination
by the Servicer that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed
Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be evidenced
by an Officers' Certificate of the Servicer delivered to the Depositor and the
Trustee.

the principal amount of the REMIC 2 X/N Interest so that such principal amount
shall equal the excess of (i) the Pool Balance as of the close of the related
Collection Period over (ii) the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of each
Class of Certificates on such Distribution Date after all principal payments
have been made and Realized Losses have been allocated to such Certificates
(other than the Class X or Class N Certificates). The portion of Available Funds
remaining in REMIC 2 on a Distribution Date after all distributions have been
made to the REMIC 2 Regular Interests shall be distributed to the Class R
Certificates in respect of the Class R-2 Interest. If on any Distribution Date
the Class Principal Balance of any Class of Certificates is increased pursuant
to the last sentence of the definition of "Certificate Principal Balance", then
there shall be an equivalent increase in the principal amounts of the REMIC 2
Regular Interests, with each Corresponding REMIC 2 Regular Interest having an
increase in its principal amount equal to the increase in the Class Principal
Balance of the Corresponding Cap Carryover Certificates.
100
(i) REMIC 1. On each Distribution Date, the REMIC 1 Regular
Interests shall receive distributions of interest and principal equal in the

the REMIC 1 Regular Interests at the rates specified in the Preliminary
Statement. Payments and Realized Losses shall be allocated among the REMIC 1
Regular Interests so that (i) each of the Marker Interests shall have a
principal balance equal to 25% of the principal balance of the related REMIC 2
Regular Interest (with, for purposes of this Section 4.08(i), the Class AF-1A
Certificates being related to the Class LT1-AF1A Interest, the Class AF-1B
Certificates being related to the Class LT1-AF1B Interest, the Class AF-1C
Certificates being related to the Class LT1-AF1C Interest, the Class AF-2
Certificates being related to the Class LT1-AF2 Interest, the Class AF-3

Interest being related to the Class LT1-AV1 Interest, the REMIC 2 AV-2 Interest
being related to the Class LT1-AV2 Interest, the REMIC 2 AV-3 Interest being
related to the Class LT1-AV3 Interest, the REMIC 2 M-1 Interest being related to
the Class LT1-M1 Interest, the REMIC 2 M-2 Interest being related to the Class
LT1-M2 Interest, the REMIC 2 M-3 Interest being related to the Class LT1-M3
Interest, the REMIC 2 M-4 Interest being related to the Class LT1-M4 Interest,

being related to the Class LT1-B4 Interest, the REMIC 2 B-5 Interest being
related to the Class LT1-B5 Interest and the REMIC 2 B-6 Interest being related
to the Class LT1-B6 Interest), (ii) the Class LT1-X1 Interest has a principal
balance equal to the excess of (x) 50% of the remaining principal balance of the
Mortgage Loans over (y) the aggregate principal balance of the Marker Interests
(if necessary to reflect an increase in overcollateralization, accrued and
unpaid interest on the Class LT1-X1 interest may be added to its principal
amount to achieve this result) and (iii) the aggregate principal amount of the
Class LT1-IA Interest, Class LT1-IB Interest, Class LT1-IIA Interest, Class
LT1-IIB Interest and the Class LT1-X2 Interest shall equal 50% of the remaining
principal balance of the Mortgage loans. Distributions and Realized Losses
allocated to the REMIC 1 Regular Interests described in clause (iii) of the
preceding sentence will be allocated among such REMIC 1 Regular Interests in the
following manner: (x) distributions shall be deemed made to such REMIC 1 Regular
Interests first, so as to keep the principal balance of the each such REMIC 1
Regular Interest with "B" at the end of its designation equal to 0.005% of the
aggregate scheduled principal balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan
Group; second, to such REMIC 1 Regular Interests with "A" at the end of its
designation so that the uncertificated principal balance of each such REMIC 1
Regular Interest is equal to 0.005% of the excess of (I) the aggregate scheduled
principal balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group over (II) the
aggregate principal balance of the Class AV-1, Class AV-2 and Class AV-3
Certificates, in the case of Loan Group I, or the Class AF-1A, Class AF-1B,
Class AF-1C, Class AF-2, Class AF-3 and Class AF-4 Certificates, in the case of
Loan Group II (except that if 0.005% of any such excess is greater than the
principal amount of the corresponding REMIC 1 Regular Interest with "A" at the
end of its designation, the least amount of principal shall be distributed to
such REMIC 1 Regular Interests with "A" at the end of its designation such that
the REMIC 1 Subordinated Balance Ratio is maintained) and finally, any remaining
distributions of principal to the Class LT1-X2 Interest and (y) Realized Losses
shall be allocated among the REMIC 1 Regular Interests described in clause (iii)
of the preceding sentence in the following manner: (x) Realized Losses shall be
deemed allocated to such REMIC 1 Regular Interests first, so as to keep the
principal balance of the each such REMIC 1 Regular Interest with "B" at the end
of its designation equal to 0.005% of the aggregate scheduled principal balance
of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group; second, to such REMIC 1 Regular
Interests with "A" at the end of its designation so that the uncertificated
principal balance of each such REMIC 1 Regular Interest is equal to 0.005% of
the excess of (I) the aggregate scheduled principal balance of the Mortgage
Loans in the related Loan Group over (II) the aggregate principal balance of the
Class AV-1, Class AV-2 and Class AV-3 Certificates, in the case of Loan Group I,
or the Class AF-1A, Class AF-1B, Class AF-1C, Class AF-2, Class AF-3 and Class
AF-4 Certificates, in the case of Loan Group II (except that if 0.005% of any
such excess is greater than the principal amount of the corresponding REMIC 1
Regular Interest with "A" at the end of its designation, the least amount of
Realized Losses shall be allocated to such REMIC 1 Regular Interests with "A" at
the end of its designation such that the REMIC 1 Subordinated Balance Ratio is
maintained) and finally, any remaining Realized Losses to the Class LT1-X2
Interest. Notwithstanding the preceding two sentences, however, Realized Losses
not allocated to any Class of Certificates will not be allocated to any REMIC 1
Regular Interests. All computations with respect to the REMIC 1 Regular
Interests shall be taken out to ten decimal places. Any portion of Available
Funds remaining in REMIC 1 on a Distribution Date after distributions to the
REMIC 1 Regular Interests shall be distributed to the Class R Certificates in
respect of the Class R-1 Interest. If on any Distribution Date the Class
Principal Balance of any Class of Certificates is increased pursuant to the last
sentence of the definition of "Certificate Principal Balance", then there shall
be an equivalent increase in the principal amounts of the REMIC 1 Regular
Interests, with such increase allocated (before the making of distributions and
the allocation of losses on the REMIC 1 Regular Interests on such Distribution
Date) among the REMIC 1 Regular Interests so that, to the greatest extent
possible, (i) each of the Marker Interests has a principal balance equal to 25%
of the principal balance of the related REMIC 2 Regular Interest, (ii) the Class
LT1-X1 Interest has a principal balance equal to the excess of (x) 50% of the
remaining principal balance of the Mortgage Loans over (y) the aggregate
principal balance of the Marker Interests and (iii) the aggregate principal
amount of the Class LT1-IA Interest, Class LT1-IB Interest, Class LT1-IIA
Interest, Class LT1-IIB Interest and Class LT1-X2 Interest shall equal 50% of
the remaining principal balance of the Mortgage Loans. Allocations in connection
with clause (iii) shall be made so that, to the greatest extent possible, (a)
the principal balance of each REMIC 1 Regular Interest with "B" at the end of
its designation equals 0.005% of the aggregate scheduled principal balance of
the Mortgage Loans in related Loan Group, (b) the principal balance of each
REMIC 1 Regular Interest with "A" at the end of its designation equals 0.005% of
the excess of (x) the aggregate scheduled principal balance of the Mortgage
Loans in related Loan Group over (y) the aggregate principal balance of the
Class AV-1, Class AV-2 and Class AV-3 Certificates in the case of the Class
LT1-IA Interest, or the Class AF-1A, Class AF-1B, Class AF-1C, Class AF-2, Class
AF-3 and Class AF-4 Certificates in the case of the Class LT1-IIA Interest and
(c) any remaining allocations are made to the Class LT1-X2 Interest.
101
(j) All prepayment penalties (including amounts deposited in
connection with the full or partial waiver of prepayment penalties pursuant to
Section 3.01) shall be distributed from REMIC 1 to REMIC 2 in respect of the
Class LT1-X1 Interest, from REMIC 2 to REMIC X/N in respect of the REMIC 2 X/N
Interest, and from REMIC X/N to the Class X/N Interest in respect of the REMIC
X/N X/N Interest.
(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the
above distributions in this Section 4.08 (other than on the Certificates) are
deemed distributions, and distributions of funds from the Distribution Account
shall be made only in accordance with Sections 4.01 and 4.02 hereof.

issue, be executed by the Trustee and authenticated and delivered by the
Certificate Registrar to or upon the receipt of a Written Order to Authenticate
from the Depositor concurrently with the sale and assignment to the Trustee of
the Trust Fund. Each Class of the Offered Certificates and the Class B-4
Certificates shall be initially evidenced by one or more Certificates
representing a Percentage Interest with a minimum dollar (or notional amount)
denomination of $25,000 and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The
Class N, Class X and Class R Certificates are issuable only in minimum

minimum Percentage Interests of 50%.
The Certificates shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by manual or
facsimile signature on behalf of the Trustee by a Responsible Officer.
Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were,
at the time when such signatures were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of
the Trustee shall bind the Trust, notwithstanding that such individuals or any
of them have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery
of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of such
Certificate. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this
Agreement or be valid for any purpose, unless such Certificate shall have been
manually authenticated by the Certificate Registrar substantially in the form
provided for herein, and such authentication 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. Subject to Section 5.02(c), the Offered Certificates
and the Class B-5, Class B-6 Certificates shall be Book-Entry Certificates. The
Class N, Class X, Class R and Class R-X Certificates shall not be Book-Entry
Certificates but shall be issued in fully registered certificate form.
The Class B-5, Class B-6 Certificates sold in offshore transactions in
reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of one or more
permanent global certificates in definitive, fully registered form without
interest coupons with the applicable legends set forth in Exhibit B-4 hereto
added to the forms of such Certificates (each, a "Book-Entry Regulation S Global
Security"), which shall be deposited on behalf of the Holders of such
Certificates represented thereby with the Certificate Registrar, as custodian
for DTC and registered in the name of a nominee of DTC, duly executed and
authenticated by the Certificate Registrar as hereinafter provided. The
aggregate principal amounts of the Book-Entry Regulation S Global Securities may
from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records
of the Certificate Registrar or DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as
hereinafter provided.
102
Section 5.02 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
(a) The Certificate Registrar shall cause to be kept at the
Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a Certificate Register in which, subject
to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Certificate Registrar
shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and
exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. The Trustee shall initially serve
as Certificate Registrar for the purpose of registering Certificates and
transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. The Trustee as
Certificate Registrar shall be subject to the same standards of care,
limitations on liability and rights to indemnity as the Trustee, and the
provisions of Sections 8.01, 8.02, 8.03, 8.04, 8.05, 8.14, 8.15 and 8.16 shall
apply to the Certificate Registrar to the same extent as they apply to the
Trustee. Any Certificate Registrar appointed in accordance with this Section
5.02(a) may at any time resign by giving at least 30 days' advance written
notice of resignation to the Trustee, the Servicer and the Depositor, such
resignation to become effective upon appointment of a successor Certificate
Registrar.
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at any
office or agency of the Certificate Registrar maintained for such purpose
pursuant to the foregoing paragraph and, in the case of a Residual Certificate,
upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, the Trustee on behalf of
the Trust 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 the same aggregate Percentage Interest.
At the option of the Certificateholders, Certificates may be exchanged
for other Certificates in authorized denominations and the same aggregate
Percentage Interests, 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 on behalf of the Trust and the Certificate
Registrar shall authenticate and deliver the Certificates which the
Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate
presented or surrendered for registration of 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 satisfactory to the Trustee and
the Certificate Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney
duly authorized in writing.
(b) Upon original issuance, the Book-Entry Certificates shall be
issued in the form of one or more typewritten certificates, to be delivered to
the Depository, the initial Depository, by, or on behalf of, the Depositor; or
to, and deposited with the Certificate Custodian, on behalf of the Depository,
if directed to do so pursuant to instructions from the Depository. Except as
provided in paragraph (c) below, the Book-Entry Certificates shall at all times
remain registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and at all times:
(i) registration of such Certificates may not be transferred by the Trustee
except to another Depository; (ii) the Depository shall maintain book-entry
records with respect to the Certificate Owners and with respect to ownership and
transfers of such Certificates; (iii) ownership and transfers of registration of
such Certificates on the books of the Depository shall be governed by applicable
rules established by the Depository; (iv) the Depository may collect its usual
and customary fees, charges and expenses from its Depository Participants; (v)
the Trustee shall for all purposes deal with the Depository as representative of
the Certificate Owners of the Certificates for purposes of exercising the rights
of Holders under this Agreement, and requests and directions for and votes of
such representative shall not be deemed to be inconsistent if they are made with
respect to different Certificate Owners; (vi) the Trustee may rely and shall be
fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depository with
respect to its Depository Participants and furnished by the Depository
Participants with respect to indirect participating firms and Persons shown on
the books of such indirect participating firms as direct or indirect Certificate
Owners; and (vii) the direct participants of the Depository shall have no rights
under this Agreement under or with respect to any of the Certificates held on
their behalf by the Depository, and the Depository may be treated by the Trustee
and their agents, employees, officers and directors as the absolute owner of the
Certificates for all purposes whatsoever.
103
All transfers by Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates shall be
made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository Participant
or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owners. Each Depository
Participant shall only transfer Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners
that it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in
accordance with the Depository's normal procedures. The parties hereto are
hereby authorized to execute a Letter of Representations with the Depository or
take such other action as may be necessary or desirable to register a Book-Entry
Certificate to the Depository. In the event of any conflict between the terms of
any such Letter of Representation and this Agreement, the terms of this
Agreement shall control.
(c) If (i)(x) the Depository or the Depositor advises the Trustee
in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to discharge
properly its responsibilities as Depository and (y) the Depositor is unable to
locate a qualified successor, (ii) the Depositor, at its sole option elects to
terminate the book-entry system through the Depository or (iii) after the
occurrence of a Servicer Event of Termination, the Certificate Owners of each
Class of Book-Entry Certificates representing Percentage Interests of such
Classes aggregating not less than 51% advises the Trustee and Depository through
the Financial Intermediaries and the Depository Participants in writing that the
continuation of a book-entry system through the Depository to the exclusion of
definitive, fully registered certificates (the "Definitive Certificates") to
Certificate Owners is no longer in the best interests of the Certificate Owners.
Upon surrender to the Certificate Registrar of the Book-Entry Certificates by
the Depository, accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for
registration, the Trustee shall, at the Depositor's expense, in the case of (ii)
above, or the Seller's expense, in the case of (i) and (iii) above, execute on
behalf of the Trust and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate the
Definitive Certificates. Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee shall be liable
for 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, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Servicer,
any Paying Agent and the Depositor shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive
Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.
(d) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Private
Certificate shall be made unless such 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
the 1933 Act and laws. In the event of any such transfer, other than the initial
transfer of the Private Certificates by the Depositor, (i) unless such transfer
is made in reliance upon Rule 144A (as evidenced by the investment letter
delivered to the Certificate Registrar, in substantially the form attached
hereto as Exhibit J) under the 1933 Act, the Certificate Registrar and the
Depositor may require a written Opinion of Counsel (which may be in-house
counsel) acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Certificate Registrar and the Depositor that such transfer may be made pursuant
to an exemption, describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor,
from the 1933 Act or is being made pursuant to the 1933 Act, which Opinion of
Counsel shall not be an expense of the Certificate Registrar, the Trustee or the
Depositor or (ii) the Certificate Registrar shall require the transferor to
execute a transferor certificate (in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit L) and the transferee to execute an investment letter (in substantially
the form attached hereto as Exhibit J) acceptable to and in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar
certifying to the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar the facts surrounding
such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of the
Certificate Registrar or the Depositor. The Holder of a Private Certificate
desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the
Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor 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.
By acceptance of a Regulation S Global Security, whether upon original
issuance or subsequent transfer, each Holder of such a Certificate acknowledges
the restrictions on the transfer of such Certificate set forth thereon and
agrees that it will only transfer such a Certificate as provided herein. In
addition, each Holder of a Regulation S Global Security shall be deemed to have
represented and warranted to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate
Registrar and any of their respective successors that: (i) such Person is not a
"U.S. person" within the meaning of Regulation S and was, at the time the buy
order was originated, outside the United States and (ii) such Person understands
that such Certificates have not been registered under the Securities Act and
that (x) until the expiration of the 40-day distribution compliance period
(within the meaning of Regulation S), no offer, sale, pledge or other transfer
of such Certificates or any interest therein shall be made in the United States
or to or for the account or benefit of a U.S. person (each as defined in
Regulation S), (y) if in the future it decides to offer, resell, pledge or
otherwise transfer such Certificates, such Certificates may be offered, resold,
pledged or otherwise transferred only (A) to a person which the seller
reasonably believes is a "qualified institutional buyer" (a "QIB") as defined in
Rule 144A under the Securities Act, that is purchasing such Certificates for its
own account or for the account of a qualified institutional buyer to which
notice is given that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A or (B)
in an offshore transaction (as defined in Regulation S) in compliance with the
provisions of Regulation S, in each case in compliance with the requirements of
this Agreement; and it will notify such transferee of the transfer restrictions
specified in this Section.
104
The beneficial ownership (as determined for federal income tax
purposes) of a Class N or Class X Certificate shall not be transferred to a
non-United States Person unless (i) such beneficial ownership is transferred to
a non-United States Person who will at all times be a Proportionate Holder and
provides the Certificate Registrar with a representation and covenant to such
effect and (ii) the Certificate Registrar has received, in the manner required
by applicable Treasury regulations (and with all required attachments,
including, where the non-United States Person is providing a Form X-0XXX, Xxxxx
X-0XXX, X-0XXX or W-9 from all persons treated as beneficially owning an
interest in the Class X or Class N Certificate through such non-U.S. Person
either directly, through an intermediary or through another entity that is
treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes), a properly
completed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, Form W-8BEN, Form W-8EXP or Form
W-8ECI from such non-United States Person. No Class N or Class X Certificate may
be pledged or used as collateral for any obligation if it would cause any
portion of the Trust Fund to be treated as a taxable mortgage pool under Section
7701(i) of the Code.
No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is a Class R-X or
Class R Certificate shall be registered unless the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar shall have received a representation from the transferee of such
Certificate, acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee
and the Certificate Registrar (such requirement is satisfied only by the
Certificate Registrar's receipt of a representation letter from the transferee
substantially in the form of Exhibit K hereto), to the effect that such
transferee is not an employee benefit plan or arrangement subject to Title I of
ERISA, a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a plan subject to any
state, local, federal, non-U.S. or other law substantively similar to the
foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code ("Similar Law") (collectively, a
"Plan"), and is not directly or indirectly acquiring the Certificate for, on
behalf of or with any assets of any such Plan.
No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate (other than a Class R-X
or Class R Certificate) shall be registered unless the Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar shall have received (i) a representation from the
transferee of such Certificate, acceptable to and in form and substance
satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar (such requirement is
satisfied only by the Certificate Registrar's receipt of a representation letter
from the transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto), to the
effect that such transferee is not a Plan and is not directly or indirectly
acquiring the Certificate for, on behalf of or with any assets of any such Plan,
(ii) if the Certificate has been the subject of an ERISA-Qualifying
Underwriting, a representation from the transferee, acceptable to and in form
and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar (such
requirement is satisfied only by the Certificate Registrar's receipt of a
representation letter from the transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit I
hereto), that the transferee is an insurance company that is acquiring the
Certificate with assets of an "insurance company general account" as defined in
Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE") 95-60 and the
acquisition and holding of the Certificate are covered and exempt under Sections
I and III of PTCE 95-60, or (iii) solely in the case of a Definitive
Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar, and upon which the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar
shall be entitled to rely, to the effect that the acquisition and holding of
such Certificate by the transferee will not result in a nonexempt prohibited
transaction under Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or a violation
of Similar Law, and will not subject the Certificate Registrar, the Depositor,
the Servicer or the Trustee to any obligation in addition to those undertaken by
such entities in this Agreement, which opinion of counsel shall not be an
expense of the Certificate Registrar, the Depositor, the Servicer or the
Trustee. The representations in clause (i) or (ii) of the preceding sentence
shall be deemed to have been made to the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee
by the Certificate Owner's acceptance of the beneficial interest in any such
class of ERISA-Restricted Certificates, unless the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar shall have received from the transferee an alternative representation
acceptable in form and substance to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar.
105
Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, any
purported transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate to or on behalf of a Plan
without the delivery to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar of a
representation or an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar as described above shall be void and of no effect. None of
the Certificate Registrar, the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee shall be
under any liability to any Person for any registration or transfer of any
ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section
5.02(d) nor shall the Paying Agent be under any liability for making any
payments due on such ERISA-Restricted Certificate to the holder thereof or
taking any other action with respect to such holder under the provisions of this
Agreement so long as the transfer was registered by the Certificate Registrar in
accordance with the foregoing requirements. The Certificate Registrar,
Depositor, Servicer, Paying Agent and/or Trustee shall be entitled, but not
obligated, to recover from any holder of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that
was in fact a Plan and that held such ERISA-Restricted Certificate in violation
of this Section 5.02(d) all payments made on such ERISA-Restricted Certificate
at and after the time it commenced such holding. Any such payments so recovered
shall be paid and delivered to the last preceding holder of such
ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is not a Plan.
Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a
Residual 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 appointed the Depositor or its designee as its attorney-in-fact
to negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause (v) below and to
execute all instruments of transfer and to do all other things necessary in
connection with any such sale, and the rights of each Person acquiring any
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the
following provisions:
(i) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall
promptly notify the Certificate Registrar of any change or impending change in
its status as a Permitted Transferee.
(ii) No Person shall acquire an Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate unless such Ownership Interest is a pro rata undivided
interest.
(iii) In connection with any proposed transfer of any
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall as
a condition to registration of the transfer, require delivery to it, in form and
substance satisfactory to it, of each of the following:
106
(A) an affidavit in the form of Exhibit K hereto
from the proposed transferee to the effect that, among other things, such
transferee is a Permitted Transferee and that it is not acquiring its Ownership
Interest in the Residual Certificate that is the subject of the proposed
transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person who is not a Permitted
Transferee; and
(B) a covenant of the proposed transferee to the
effect that the proposed transferee agrees to be bound by and to abide by the
transfer restrictions applicable to the Residual Certificates.
(iv) Any attempted or purported transfer of any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this
Section shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the
purported transferee. If any purported transferee shall, in violation of the
provisions of this Section, become a Holder of a Residual Certificate, then the
prior Holder of such Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee shall,
upon discovery that the registration of transfer of such Residual Certificate
was not in fact permitted by this Section, be restored to all rights as Holder
thereof retroactive to the date of registration of transfer of such Residual
Certificate. The Certificate Registrar shall be under no liability to any Person
for any registration of transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not
permitted by this Section or for making any distributions due on such Residual
Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to
such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the Certificate
Registrar received the documents specified in clause (iii). The Trustee shall be
entitled to recover from any Holder of a Residual Certificate that was in fact
not a Permitted Transferee at the time such distributions were made all
distributions made on such Residual Certificate. Any such distributions so
recovered by the Trustee shall be distributed and delivered by the Trustee to
the prior Holder of such Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee.
(v) If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee
acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the
restrictions in this Section, then the Certificate Registrar shall have the
right but not the obligation, without notice to the Holder of such Residual
Certificate or any other Person having an Ownership Interest therein, to notify
the Depositor to arrange for the sale of such Residual Certificate. The proceeds
of such sale, net of commissions (which may include commissions payable to the
Depositor or its affiliates in connection with such sale), expenses and taxes
due, if any, will be remitted by the Trustee to the previous Holder of such
Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee, except that in the event
that the Trustee determines that the Holder of such Residual Certificate may be
liable for any amount due under this Section or any other provisions of this
Agreement, the Trustee may withhold a corresponding amount from such remittance
as security for such claim. The terms and conditions of any sale under this
clause (v) shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Trustee and it
shall not be liable to any Person having an Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate as a result of its exercise of such discretion.
(vi) If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee
acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the
restrictions in this Section, then the Trustee will provide to the Internal
Revenue Service, and to the persons specified in Sections 860E(e)(3) and (6) of
the Code, information needed to compute the tax imposed under Section 860E(e)(5)
of the Code on transfers of residual interests to disqualified organizations.
The Trustee shall be entitled to reasonable compensation for providing such
information from the person to whom it is provided.
The foregoing provisions of this Section shall cease to apply to transfers
occurring on or after the date on which there shall have been delivered to the
Certificate Registrar, in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate
Registrar, (i) written notification from each Rating Agency that the removal of
the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Section will not cause such
Rating Agency to downgrade its rating of the Certificates and (ii) an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such removal will not cause any REMIC hereunder to
fail to qualify as a REMIC.
107
(e) No service charge shall be made for any registration of
transfer or exchange of Certificates of any Class, but the Certificate Registrar
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.
All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange
shall be cancelled by the Certificate Registrar and disposed of pursuant to its
standard procedures.
Section 5.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.
If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate
Registrar or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of
the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (ii) there is delivered to
the Trustee, the Depositor 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 on behalf of the Trust, 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 and Percentage Interest.
Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Trustee or the
Certificate Registrar 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) in connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued
pursuant to this Section, shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of
ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen
or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.
Section 5.04 Persons Deemed Owners.
The Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar,
any Paying Agent and any agent of the Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate
Registrar, any Paying Agent or the Trustee may treat the Person, including a
Depository, in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such
Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 4.01
and 4.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Servicer, the
Trust, the Trustee, any Paying Agent nor any agent of any of them shall be
affected by notice to the contrary.
Section 5.05 Appointment of Paying Agent.
The Paying Agent shall make distributions to Certificateholders from
the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 4.01 and 4.02 and shall report the
amounts of such distributions to the Trustee. The duties of the Paying Agent may
include the obligation (i) to withdraw funds from the Collection Account
pursuant to Section 3.05 and for the purpose of making the distributions
referred to above and (ii) to distribute statements and provide information to
Certificateholders as required hereunder. The Paying Agent hereunder shall at
all times be an entity duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of
the United States of America or any state thereof, authorized under such laws to
exercise corporate trust powers and subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authorities. The Paying Agent shall initially be the Trustee.
The Trustee may appoint a successor to act as Paying Agent, which appointment
shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the Rating Agencies. The
Trustee as Paying Agent shall be subject to the same standards of care,
limitations on liability and rights to indemnity as the Trustee, and the
provisions of Sections 8.01, 8.02, 8.03, 8.04, 8.05, 8.14, 8.15 and 8.16 shall
apply to the Paying Agent to the same extent as they apply to the Trustee. Any
Paying Agent appointed in accordance with this Section 5.05 may at any time
resign by giving at least 30 days' advance written notice of resignation to the
Trustee, the Servicer and the Depositor, such resignation to become effective
upon appointment of a successor Paying Agent.
108
ARTICLE VI
THE SELLER, THE SERVICER AND THE DEPOSITOR
Section 6.01 Liability of the Seller, the Servicer and the Depositor.
The Seller and the Servicer shall be liable in accordance herewith only
to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed upon and undertaken by the
Seller or Servicer, as the case may be, herein. The Depositor shall be liable in
accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed
upon and undertaken by the Depositor.
Section 6.02 Merger or Consolidation of, or Assumption of the
Obligations of, the Seller, the Servicer or the Depositor.
Any entity into which the Seller, the Servicer or the Depositor may be
merged or consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Seller, the Servicer or the Depositor shall be a
party, or any corporation succeeding to the business of the Seller, the Servicer
or the Depositor, shall be the successor of the Seller, the Servicer or the
Depositor, 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
Servicer shall satisfy all the requirements of Section 7.02 with respect to the
qualifications of a successor Servicer.
Section 6.03 Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others.
Neither the Servicer nor any of the directors or officers or employees
or agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trust or the
Certificateholders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any
action by the Servicer in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors
in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the
Servicer or any such Person against any liability which would otherwise be
imposed by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in
the performance of duties of the Servicer or by reason of its reckless disregard
of its obligations and duties of the Servicer hereunder; provided, further, that
this provision shall not be construed to entitle the Servicer to indemnity in
the event that amounts advanced by the Servicer to retire any senior lien exceed
Liquidation Proceeds (in excess of related liquidation expenses) realized with
respect to the related Mortgage Loan. The Servicer and any director or officer
or employee or agent of the 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 Servicer and any director or officer or
employee or agent of the Servicer shall be indemnified by the Trust 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 incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad
faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of its
reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. The Servicer may
undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of
this Agreement, and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the
interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the reasonable
legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom
shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust and the Servicer shall be
entitled to pay such expenses from the proceeds of the Trust or to be reimbursed
therefor pursuant to Section 3.05 upon presentation to the Trustee of
documentation of such expenses, costs and liabilities. The Servicer's right to
indemnity or reimbursement pursuant to this Section shall survive any
resignation or termination of the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.04 or 7.01 with
respect to any losses, expenses, costs or liabilities arising prior to such
resignation or termination (or arising from events that occurred prior to such
resignation or termination). This paragraph shall apply to the Servicer solely
in its capacity as Servicer hereunder and in no other capacities.
109
Section 6.04 Servicer Not to Resign.
Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01 and Section 6.02, the
Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it
except (i) upon determination that the performance of its obligations or duties
hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law or are in material
conflict by reason of applicable law with any other activities carried on by it
or its subsidiaries or Affiliates, the other activities of the Servicer so
causing such a conflict being of a type and nature carried on by the Servicer or
its subsidiaries or Affiliates at the date of this Agreement or (ii) upon
satisfaction of the following conditions: (a) the Servicer has proposed a
successor servicer to the Trustee in writing and such proposed successor
servicer is reasonably acceptable to the Trustee; and (b) each Rating Agency
shall have delivered a letter to the Trustee prior to the appointment of the
successor servicer stating that the proposed appointment of such successor
servicer as Servicer hereunder will not result in the reduction or withdrawal of
the then current rating of the Regular Certificates; or the ratings that are in
effect; provided, however, that no such resignation by the Servicer shall become
effective until such successor servicer or, in the case of (i) above, the
Trustee shall have assumed the Servicer's responsibilities and obligations
hereunder or the Trustee shall have designated a successor servicer in
accordance with Section 7.02. Any such resignation shall not relieve the
Servicer of responsibility for any of the obligations specified in Sections 7.01
and 7.02 as obligations that survive the resignation or termination of the
Servicer. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer
pursuant to clause (i) above shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such
effect delivered to the Trustee. Any such determination permitting the
resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such
effect delivered to the Trustee.
The Trustee and the Depositor hereby specifically (i) consent to the
pledge and assignment by the Servicer of all the Servicer's right, title and
interest in, to and under this Agreement to the Servicing Rights Pledgee, for
the benefit of certain lenders, and (ii) provided that no Servicer Event of
Termination exists, agree that upon delivery to the Trustee by the Servicing
Rights Pledgee of a letter signed by the Servicer whereunder the Servicer shall
resign as Servicer under this Agreement, the Trustee shall appoint the Servicing
Rights Pledgee or its designee as successor Servicer, provided that at the time
of such appointment, the Servicing Rights Pledgee or such designee meets the
requirements of a successor Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02(a) and agrees to
be subject to the terms of this Agreement. If, pursuant to any provision hereof,
the duties of the Servicer are transferred to a successor, the entire amount of
the Servicing Fee and other compensation payable to the Servicer pursuant hereto
shall thereafter be payable to such successor.
110
Section 6.05 Delegation of Duties.
In the ordinary course of business, the Servicer at any time may
delegate any of its duties hereunder to any Person, including any of its
Affiliates, who agrees to conduct such duties in accordance with standards
comparable to those set forth in Section 3.01. Such delegation shall not relieve
the Servicer of its liabilities and responsibilities with respect to such duties
and shall not constitute a resignation within the meaning of Section 6.04. The
Servicer shall provide the Trustee and the Rating Agencies with 60 days prior
written notice prior to the delegation of any of its duties to any Person other
than any of the Servicer's Affiliates or their respective successors and
assigns.
ARTICLE VII
DEFAULT
Section 7.01 Servicer Events of Termination.
(a) If any one of the following events (each, a "Servicer Event of
Termination") shall occur and be continuing:
(i) (A) The failure by the Servicer to make any required
Advance; or (B) any other failure by the Servicer to deposit in the Collection
Account or Distribution Account any deposit required to be made under the terms
of this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of one Business Day
after the date upon which written notice of such failure shall have been given
to the Servicer by the Trustee or by any Holder of a Regular Certificate
evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights; or
(ii) The failure by the Servicer to make any required
Servicing Advance which failure continues unremedied for a period of 30 days, or
the failure by the Servicer duly to observe or perform, in any material respect,
any other covenants, obligations or agreements of the Servicer as set forth in
this Agreement, which failure continues unremedied for a period of 30 days,
after the date (A) on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same
to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Trustee or by any
Holder of a Regular Certificate evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights or
(B) actual knowledge of such failure by a Servicing Officer of the Servicer; or
(iii) The entry against the Servicer of a decree or order
by a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the
premises for the appointment of a trustee, conservator, receiver or liquidator
in any insolvency, conservatorship, receivership, readjustment of debt,
marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding
up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or
order unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 days; or
(iv) The Servicer shall voluntarily go into liquidation,
consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator or similar
person in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and
liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Servicer or of or
relating to all or substantially all of its property; or a decree or order of a
court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises for
the appointment of a conservator, receiver, liquidator or similar person 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 Servicer and such decree or order shall have
remained in force undischarged, unbonded or unstayed for a period of 60 days; or
the Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as
they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency
or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors
or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or
111
(v) The aggregate amount of cumulative Realized Losses
incurred since the Cut-off Date through the last day of the related Collection
Period divided by the Pool Balance as of the Cut-off Date exceeds the applicable
percentages set forth below with respect to such Distribution Date:
DISTRIBUTION DATE OCCURRING IN PERCENTAGE
------------------------------ ----------
June 2008 through May 2009 4.30%
June 2009 through May 2010 6.25%
June 2010 through May 2011 8.00%
June 2011 and thereafter 8.50%
(b) Then, and in each and every such case, so long as a Servicer
Event of Termination shall not have been remedied within the applicable grace
period, (x) with respect solely to clause (i)(A) above, if such Advance is not
made by 2:00 P.M., New York time, on the Business Day immediately following the
Servicer Remittance Date, the Trustee may terminate all of the rights and
obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and the Trustee, or a successor
servicer appointed in accordance with Section 7.02, shall immediately make such
Advance and assume, pursuant to Section 7.02, the duties of a successor Servicer
and (y) in the case of (i)(B), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) above, the Trustee
shall, at the direction of the Holders of each Class of Regular Certificates
evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 51%, by notice then
given in writing to the Servicer (and to the Trustee if given by Holders of
Certificates), terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer as
servicer under this Agreement. Any such notice to the Servicer shall also be
given to each Rating Agency, the Depositor and the Seller. On or after the
receipt by the Servicer (and by the Trustee if such notice is given by the
Holders) of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under
this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans
or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under
this Section; and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and
empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the 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 of each Mortgage Loan and Related Documents or otherwise. The
Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee (or the applicable successor
Servicer) in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the
Servicer hereunder, including, without limitation, the delivery to the Trustee
of all documents and records requested by it to enable it to assume the
Servicer's functions under this Agreement within ten Business Days subsequent to
such notice, the transfer within one Business Day subsequent to such notice to
the Trustee (or the applicable successor Servicer) for the administration by it
of all cash amounts that shall at the time be held by the Servicer and to be
deposited by it in the Collection Account, the Distribution Account, any REO
Account or any Escrow Account or that have been deposited by the Servicer in
such accounts or thereafter received by the Servicer with respect to the
Mortgage Loans or any REO Property received by the Servicer. All reasonable
costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with
transferring the servicing to the successor Servicer and amending this Agreement
to reflect such succession as Servicer pursuant to this Section shall be paid by
the predecessor Servicer (or if the predecessor Servicer is the Trustee, the
initial Servicer) upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs
and expenses.
112
Section 7.02 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
(a) Within 90 days of the time the Servicer (and the Trustee, if
notice is sent by the Holders) receives a notice of termination pursuant to
Section 7.01 or 6.04, the Trustee (or such other successor Servicer as is
approved in accordance with this Agreement) shall be the successor in all
respects to the 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
Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof arising on and after its succession.
As compensation therefor, the Trustee (or such other successor Servicer) shall
be entitled to such compensation as the Servicer would have been entitled to
hereunder if no such notice of termination had been given. Notwithstanding the
above, (i) if the Trustee is unwilling to act as successor Servicer or (ii) if
the Trustee is legally unable so to act, the Trustee shall appoint or petition a
court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established housing and home
finance institution, bank or other mortgage loan or home equity loan servicer
having a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 as the successor to the Servicer
hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties
or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder; provided, that the appointment of any
such successor Servicer will not result in the qualification, reduction or
withdrawal of the ratings assigned to the Certificates or the ratings that are
in effect by the Rating Agencies as evidenced by a letter to such effect from
the Rating Agencies; and provided further that the representations and
warranties in Section 2.05 shall be true and correct as to such successor
Servicer. Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer hereunder, unless
the Trustee is prohibited by law from so acting, the Trustee shall act in such
capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and
assumption, the successor shall be entitled to receive compensation out of
payments on Mortgage Loans in an amount equal to the compensation which the
Servicer would otherwise have received pursuant to Section 3.18 (or such other
compensation as the Trustee and such successor shall agree, not to exceed the
Servicing Fee). The successor servicer shall be entitled to withdraw from the
Collection Account all costs and expenses associated with the transfer of the
servicing to the successor servicer. The appointment of a successor servicer
shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Servicer which may have arisen
under this Agreement prior to its termination as Servicer to pay any deductible
under an insurance policy pursuant to Section 3.12 or to indemnify the parties
indicated in Section 3.26 pursuant to the terms thereof, nor shall any successor
Servicer be liable for any acts or omissions of the predecessor Servicer or for
any breach by such Servicer of any of its representations or warranties
contained herein or in any related document or agreement. The Trustee and such
successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be
necessary to effectuate any such succession.
In the event of a Servicer Event of Termination, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary above, the Trustee and the Depositor hereby agree that
upon delivery to the Trustee by the Servicing Rights Pledgee of a letter signed
by the Servicer within ten Business Days of when notification of such event
shall have been provided to the Trustee, whereunder the Servicer shall resign as
Servicer under this Agreement, the Servicing Rights Pledgee or its designee
shall be appointed as successor Servicer (provided that at the time of such
appointment the Servicing Rights Pledgee or such designee meets the requirements
of a successor Servicer set forth above) and the Servicing Rights Pledgee agrees
to be subject to the terms of this Agreement.
(b) Any successor, including the Trustee, to the Servicer as
servicer shall during the term of its service as servicer continue to service
and administer the Mortgage Loans for the benefit of Certificateholders, and
maintain in force a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and
omissions in the performance of its obligations as Servicer hereunder and a
Fidelity Bond in respect of its officers, employees and agents to the same
extent as the Servicer is so required pursuant to Section 3.12.
113
Section 7.03 Waiver of Defaults.
The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66 2/3% of the Voting
Rights allocated to the Class of Certificates affected by a Servicer Event of
Termination may, on behalf of all Certificateholders, waive any events
permitting removal of the Servicer as servicer pursuant to this Article VII,
provided, however, that such Holders may not waive a default in making a
required distribution on a Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such
Certificate. Upon any waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to
exist and any Servicer Event of Termination arising therefrom shall be deemed to
have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall
extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereto
except to the extent expressly so waived. Notice of any such waiver shall be
given by the Trustee to the Rating Agencies.
Section 7.04 Notification to Certificateholders.
(a) On any termination or appointment of a successor the Servicer
pursuant to this Article VII or Section 6.04, the Trustee shall give prompt
written notice thereof to the Certificateholders at their respective addresses
appearing in the Certificate Register and each Rating Agency.
(b) No later than 60 days after the occurrence of any event which
constitutes or which, with notice or a lapse of time or both, would constitute a
Servicer Event of Termination for five Business Days after a Responsible Officer
of the Trustee becomes aware of the occurrence of such an event, the Trustee
shall transmit by mail to all Certificateholders notice of such occurrence
unless such default or Servicer Event of Termination shall have been waived or
cured. Such notice shall be given to the Rating Agencies promptly after any such
occurrence.
Section 7.05 Survivability of Servicer Liabilities.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon termination of
the Servicer hereunder, any liabilities of the Servicer which accrued prior to
such termination shall survive such termination.
ARTICLE VIII
THE TRUSTEE
Section 8.01 Duties of Trustee.
The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Termination
of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge and
after the curing of all Servicer Events of Termination which may have occurred,
undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set
forth in this Agreement. If a Servicer Event of Termination has occurred (which
has not been cured) of which a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge, 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 person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
such person's own affairs.
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 on their face to the requirements of this Agreement to the extent
specified herein; provided, however, that that the Trustee shall not be
responsible for the accuracy or content of any resolution, certificate,
statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument furnished by the
Servicer, the Seller or the Depositor hereunder. If any such instrument is found
not to conform in any material respect to the requirements of this Agreement,
the Trustee shall notify the Certificateholders of such instrument in the event
that the Trustee, after so requesting, does not receive a satisfactorily
corrected instrument.
114
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 misconduct; provided, however, that:
(i) prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of
Termination, and after the curing of all such Servicer Events of Termination
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 and conforming on
their face to the requirements of this Agreement to the extent specified herein;
(ii) the Trustee shall not be liable for an error of
judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee unless it
shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining or investigating
the facts related thereto;
(iii) the Trustee shall not be 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 Majority Certificateholders relating to the time,
method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the
Trustee or exercising or omitting to exercise any trust or power conferred upon
the Trustee under this Agreement; and
(iv) the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of
any failure by the Servicer to comply with the obligations of the Servicer
referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01(a) or any Servicer Event of
Termination unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the applicable
Corporate Trust Office obtains actual knowledge of such failure or the Trustee
receives written notice of such failure from the Servicer or the Majority
Certificateholders. In the absence of such receipt of such notice, the Trustee
may conclusively assume that there is no Servicer Event of Termination.
The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is
reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, and
none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require
the Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any
of the obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement, except during such
time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the
rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Servicer in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement; provided, however, the Trustee shall not seek
reimbursement or repayment of any of its expenses from the Trust Fund except in
connection with expenses that would constitute "unanticipated expenses" under
Treasury Regulation 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii).
The Trustee shall not have any duty (A) to see any recording, filing,
or depositing of this Agreement or any agreement referred to herein or any
financing statement or continuation statement evidencing a security interest, or
to see to the maintenance of any such recording or filing or depositing or to
any rerecording, refiling or redepositing of any thereof, (B) to see to any
insurance or (C) to see to the payment or discharge of any tax, assessment, or
other governmental charge or any lien or encumbrance of any kind owing with
respect to, assessed or levied against, any part of the Trust Fund other than
from funds available in the Distribution Account.
115
The Trustee shall have no duty hereunder with respect to any complaint,
claim, demand, notice or other document it may receive or which may be alleged
to have been delivered to or served upon it by the parties as a consequence of
the assignment of any Mortgage Loan hereunder; provided, however, that the
Trustee shall promptly remit to the Servicer upon receipt any such complaint,
claim, demand, notice or other document (i) which is delivered to the Trustee at
its Corporate Trust Office; (ii) of which a Responsible Officer has actual
knowledge and (iii) which contains information sufficient to permit the Trustee
to make a determination that the real property to which such document relates to
is a Mortgaged Property.
Section 8.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
(i) the Trustee may request and rely upon, and shall be
protected in acting or refraining from acting upon, any resolution, Officer's
Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or
other paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been
signed or presented by the proper party or parties;
(ii) the Trustee may consult with counsel and any advice
or Opinion of 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 advice or Opinion of Counsel;
(iii) the Trustee shall not be under any obligation to
exercise any of the rights 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 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; the right of the Trustee
to perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Agreement shall not be
construed as a duty, and the Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its
negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of any such act;
(iv) the Trustee shall not be 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;
(v) prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of
Termination and after the curing of all Servicer Events of Termination 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 documents, unless requested in writing to do so by the Majority
Certificateholder; 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 cost,
expense or liability as a condition to such proceeding. The reasonable expense
of every such examination shall be paid by the Servicer or, if paid by the
Trustee shall be reimbursed by the Servicer upon demand. Nothing in this clause
(v) shall derogate from the obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable
law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Mortgagors;
(vi) the Trustee shall not be accountable, shall have any
liability or make any representation as to any acts or omissions hereunder of
the Servicer until such time as the Trustee may be required to act as Servicer
pursuant to Section 7.02;
116
(vii) 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 or a custodian and the Trustee shall not be responsible for
any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent, attorney or
custodian appointed by it with due care; and
(viii) the right of the Trustee to perform any
discretionary act enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty,
and the Trustee shall not be answerable for other than its negligence or willful
misconduct in the performance of such act.
Section 8.03 Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the
authentication of the Trustee on the Certificates) shall be taken as the
statements of the Seller, and the Trustee does not assume any responsibility for
the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the
validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the Certificates (other than the
signature and authentication of the Trustee on the Certificates) or of any
Mortgage Loan or Related Document. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the
use or application by the Servicer, or for the use or application of any funds
paid to the Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or
withdrawn from the Collection Account by the Servicer. The Trustee shall not at
any time have any responsibility or liability for or with respect to the
legality, validity and enforceability of any Mortgage or any Mortgage Loan, or
the perfection and priority of any Mortgage or the maintenance of any such
perfection and priority, or for or with respect to the sufficiency of the Trust
or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed to Certificateholders
under this Agreement, including, without limitation: the existence, condition
and ownership of any Mortgaged Property; the existence and enforceability of any
hazard insurance thereon (other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of
the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02); the validity of the assignment of any
Mortgage Loan to the Trustee or of any intervening assignment; the completeness
of any Mortgage Loan; the performance or enforcement of any Mortgage Loan (other
than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant to Section
7.02); the compliance by the Depositor, the Seller or the Servicer with any
warranty or representation made under this Agreement or in any related document
or the accuracy of any such warranty or representation prior to the Trustee's
receipt of notice or other discovery of any non-compliance therewith or any
breach thereof; any investment of monies by or at the direction of the Servicer
or any loss resulting therefrom; the acts or omissions of any of the Servicer
(other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant to
Section 7.02), or any Mortgagor; any action of the Servicer (other than if the
Trustee shall assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02), taken
in the name of the Trustee; the failure of the Servicer to act or perform any
duties required of it as agent of the Trustee hereunder; or any action by the
Trustee taken at the instruction of the Servicer (other than if the Trustee
shall assume the duties of the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02); provided,
however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the Trustee of its obligation to
perform its duties under this Agreement. The Trustee shall not have any
responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement in any public
office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any
security interest or lien granted to it hereunder.
Section 8.04 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 as it would have if it
were not Trustee and may transact any banking and trust business with the
Seller, the Servicer, the Depositor or their Affiliates.
117
Section 8.05 Seller to Pay Trustee Fees and Expenses.
The Trustee shall withdraw from the Distribution Account on each
Distribution Date and pay to itself the Trustee Fee pursuant to Section 4.01(i)
and, to the extent the Interest Remittance Amount is at any time insufficient
for such purpose, the Seller shall pay such fees as 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 it
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 the
Seller will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable
expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the 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) except any such expense, disbursement
or advance as may arise from such party's negligence or bad faith or which is
the responsibility of Certificateholders, the Trustee hereunder. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, including Section 2.03(a) and Section
2.04, to the contrary, the Seller covenants and agrees to indemnify the Trustee
and its officers, directors, employees and agents from, and hold each of them
harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims or expenses
incurred in connection with (a) any legal action relating to this Agreement, the
Custodial Agreement, the Certificates or incurred in connection with the
administration of the Trust, other than with respect to a party, any loss,
liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
negligence of such party in the performance of its duties hereunder or by reason
of such party's reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder and (b)
the second paragraph of Section 2.01. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, in no event shall the Trustee be liable for special, indirect
or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not
limited to lost profits), even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood
of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. The Trustee and any
director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee shall be indemnified, to the
extent not paid by the Seller pursuant to this Section, by the Trust Fund and
held harmless against any loss, liability or expense (not including expenses,
disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee, in the ordinary
course of the Trustee's performance in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement) incurred by the Trustee or such party arising out of or in connection
with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Agreement, other
than in connection with the indemnification provided pursuant to clause (a)
above, any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance,
bad faith or negligence in the performance by the Trustee of its duties under
this Agreement or by reason of the reckless disregard of the Trustee's
obligations and duties under this Agreement. This section shall survive
termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of any Trustee
hereunder.
Section 8.06 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.
The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a Department of Housing and
Urban Development and Federal Housing Administration approved mortgagee, an
entity duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States
of America or any state thereof, authorized under such laws to exercise
corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least
$50,000,000 and a minimum long-term debt rating of BBB by Fitch and S&P and a
long term debt rating of at least A1 or better by Xxxxx'x, and subject to
supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such entity
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 8.06, the combined capital and surplus of such entity
shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most
recent report of condition so published. The principal office of the Trustee
(other than the initial Trustee) shall be in a state with respect to which an
Opinion of Counsel has been delivered to such Trustee at the time such Trustee
is appointed Trustee to the effect that the Trust will not be a taxable entity
under the laws of such state. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.06, the Trustee
shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section
8.07.
118
Section 8.07 Resignation or Removal of Trustee.
The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts
hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Depositor, the Servicer
and each Rating Agency. 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 having accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of
such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.
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 be
legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or 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. If the Depositor or the Servicer removes the
Trustee under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the Depositor
shall promptly 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.
The Majority Certificateholders may at any time remove the Trustee by
written instrument or instruments delivered to the Servicer, the Depositor and
the Trustee; the Depositor shall thereupon use its best efforts to appoint a
successor Trustee in accordance with this Section.
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall
not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee as
provided in Section 8.08.
Section 8.08 Successor Trustee.
Any successor Trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 shall
execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, the Rating Agencies, the
Servicer 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, without any further act,
deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers,
duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if
originally named as Trustee. The Depositor, the Servicer and the predecessor
Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as
may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the
successor Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.
No successor Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section 8.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall
be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 and the appointment of such
successor Trustee shall not result in a downgrading of the Regular Certificates
by either Rating Agency, as evidenced by a letter from each Rating Agency.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as provided in
this Section 8.08, the successor Trustee shall mail notice of the appointment of
a successor Trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses
as shown in the Certificate Register and to each Rating Agency.
119
Section 8.09 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.
Any entity into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger,
conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any entity
succeeding to the business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee
hereunder, provided such entity shall be eligible under the provisions of
Section 8.06 and 8.08, 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.
Section 8.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time,
for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which
any part of the Trust or any Mortgaged Property may at the time be located, the
Depositor 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, and to
vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject
to the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations,
rights and trusts as the Servicer and the Trustee may consider necessary or
desirable. Any such co-trustee or separate trustee shall be subject to the
written approval of the Servicer. If the Servicer shall not have joined in such
appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in
the case a Servicer Event of Termination 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, and no notice to Certificateholders
of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under
Section 8.08. The Servicer shall be responsible for the fees of any co-trustee
or separate trustee appointed hereunder.
Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by
law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:
(i) 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 (it
being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to
act separately without the Trustee joining in such act), 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 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 or any portion thereof in any such
jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee
or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Trustee;
(ii) no trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable
by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and
(iii) the Servicer and the Trustee, acting jointly may at
any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee
except that following the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Termination, the
Trustee acting alone may accept the resignation or remove any separate trustee
or co-trustee.
120
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 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 and a copy thereof given to the
Depositor, the Rating Agencies and the Servicer.
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 8.11 Limitation of Liability.
The Certificates are executed by the Trustee, not in its individual
capacity but solely as Trustee of the Trust, in the exercise of the powers and
authority conferred and vested in it by this Agreement. Each of the undertakings
and agreements made on the part of the Trustee in the Certificates is made and
intended not as a personal undertaking or agreement by the Trustee but is made
and intended for the purpose of binding only the Trust.
Section 8.12 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of
Certificates.
(a) All rights of action and claims under this Agreement or the
Certificates may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the
possession of any of the Certificates or the production thereof in any
proceeding relating thereto, and such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall
be brought in its own name or in its capacity as Trustee for the benefit of all
Holders of such Certificates, subject to the provisions of this Agreement. Any
recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursement and advances of the Trustee, its agents and
counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Certificateholders in respect of
which such judgment has been recovered.
(b) The Trustee shall afford the Seller, the Depositor, the
Servicer and each Certificateholder upon reasonable notice during normal
business hours, access to all records maintained by the Trustee in respect of
its duties hereunder and access to officers of the Trustee responsible for
performing such duties. The Trustee shall cooperate fully with the Seller, the
Servicer, the Depositor and such Certificateholder and shall make available to
the Seller, the Servicer, the Depositor and such Certificateholder for review
and copying at the expense of the party requesting such copies, such books,
documents or records as may be requested with respect to the Trustee's duties
hereunder. The Seller, the Depositor, the Servicer and the Certificateholders
shall not have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act
by the Trustee and are not obligated to supervise the performance of the Trustee
under this Agreement or otherwise.
Section 8.13 Suits for Enforcement.
In case a Servicer Event of Termination or other default by the
Servicer or the Seller hereunder shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee may
proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the
Certificateholders under this Agreement by a suit, action or proceeding in
equity or at law or otherwise, whether for the specific performance of any
covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or in aid of the execution of
any power granted in this Agreement or for the enforcement of any other legal,
equitable or other remedy, as the Trustee, being advised by counsel, and subject
to the foregoing, shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of the
rights of the Trustee and the Certificateholders.
121
Section 8.14 Waiver of Bond Requirement.
The Trustee shall be relieved of, and each Certificateholder hereby
waives, any requirement of any jurisdiction in which the Trust, or any part
thereof, may be located that the Trustee post a bond or other surety with any
court, agency or body whatsoever.
Section 8.15 Waiver of Inventory, Accounting and Appraisal Requirement.
The Trustee shall be relieved of, and each Certificateholder hereby
waives, any requirement of any jurisdiction in which the Trust, or any part
thereof, may be located that the Trustee file any inventory, accounting or
appraisal of the Trust with any court, agency or body at any time or in any
manner whatsoever.
Section 8.16 Compliance with National Housing Act of 1934.
In performing its duties hereunder with respect to FHA Loans, the
Trustee shall comply with all requirements of the National Housing Act of 1934,
as amended.

each of REMIC 1, REMIC 2, REMIC B-1, REMIC B-2, REMIC B-3, REMIC B-4, REMIC B-5,
REMIC B-6 and REMIC X/N as set forth in the Preliminary Statement on Forms 1066
or other appropriate federal tax or information return for the taxable year
ending on the last day of the calendar year in which the Certificates are
issued. The regular interests and residual interest in each REMIC shall be as
designated in the Preliminary Statement.
(b) The Closing Date is hereby designated as the "Startup Day" of
each REMIC within the meaning of section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.
(c) The Servicer shall pay any and all tax related expenses (not
including taxes) of each REMIC, including but not limited to any professional
fees or expenses related to audits or any administrative or judicial proceedings
with respect to such REMIC that involve the Internal Revenue Service or state
tax authorities, but only to the extent that (i) such expenses are ordinary or
routine expenses, including expenses of a routine audit but not expenses of
litigation (except as described in (ii)); or (ii) such expenses or liabilities
(including taxes and penalties) are attributable to the negligence or willful
misconduct of the Servicer in fulfilling its duties hereunder. The Servicer
shall be entitled to reimbursement of expenses to the extent provided in clause
(i) above from the Collection Account, but only to the extent that such expenses
are "unanticipated expenses" under Treasury Regulations Section
1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii).
122
(d) The Trustee shall prepare or cause to be prepared, sign and
file or cause to be filed, each REMIC's federal and state tax and information
returns as such REMIC's direct representative. The expenses of preparing and
filing such returns shall be borne by the Trustee.
(e) The Holder of the Residual Certificates with respect to each
REMIC holding the largest Percentage Interest shall be the "tax matters person"
as defined in the REMIC Provisions (the "Tax Matters Person") with respect to
the applicable REMIC or REMICs, and the Trustee is irrevocably designated as and
shall act as attorney-in-fact and agent for such Tax Matters Person for each
REMIC. The Trustee, as agent for the Tax Matters Person, shall perform, on
behalf of each REMIC, all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the
responsibility of such REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions, or other
compliance guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local
taxing authority. Among its other duties, if required by the Code, the REMIC
Provisions, or other such guidance, the Trustee, as agent for the Tax Matters
Person, shall provide (i) to the Treasury or other governmental authority such
information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the
transfer of a Residual Certificate to any disqualified person or organization
and (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required
by the Code or REMIC Provisions.
(f) The Trustee, the Servicer, and the Holders of Certificates
shall take any action or cause any REMIC to take any action necessary to create
or maintain the status of such REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and
shall assist each other as necessary to create or maintain such status. Neither
the Trustee, the Servicer, nor the Holder of any Residual Certificate shall take
any action or cause any REMIC to take any action or fail to take (or fail to
cause to be taken) any action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not
taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of such REMIC as a
REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon such REMIC (including but
not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Code Section
860F(a)(2) and the tax on prohibited contributions set forth on Section 860G(d)
of the Code) (either such event, an "Adverse REMIC Event") unless such action or
failure to take such action is expressly permitted under the terms of this
Agreement or the Trustee and the Servicer have received an Opinion of Counsel
(at the expense of the party seeking to take such action) to the effect that the
contemplated action will not endanger such status or result in the imposition of
such a tax. In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to any REMIC or
the assets therein, or causing such REMIC to take any action, which is not
expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement, any Holder of a Residual
Certificate will consult with the Trustee and the Servicer, or their respective
designees, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an
Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to such REMIC, and no such Person
shall take any such action or cause such REMIC to take any such action as to
which the Trustee or the Servicer has advised it in writing that an Adverse
REMIC Event could occur.
(g) Each Holder of a Residual Certificate shall pay when due its
pro rata share of any and all taxes imposed on any REMIC by federal or state
governmental authorities. To the extent that such REMIC taxes are not paid by
Residual Certificateholders, the Trustee shall pay any remaining REMIC taxes out
of current or future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holder of the
Residual Certificate in each REMIC or, if no such amounts are available, out of
other amounts held in the Collection Account, and shall reduce amounts otherwise
payable to Holders of the REMIC Regular Interests or the Certificates, as the
case may be.
(h) The Trustee, shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain
or cause to be maintained books and records with respect to each REMIC on a
calendar year and on an accrual basis.
(i) No additional contributions of assets shall be made to any
REMIC, except as expressly provided in this Agreement with respect to Eligible
Substitute Mortgage Loans.
123
(j) Neither the Trustee nor the Servicer shall enter into any
arrangement by which any REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for
services.
(k) On or before April 15 of each calendar year beginning in 2006,
the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and each Rating Agency an Officer's
Certificate stating the Servicer's compliance with the provisions of this
Section 9.01.
(l) The Trustee shall treat the rights of the Cap Carryover
Certificates to receive Net WAC Carryover Amounts (i) from the Monthly Excess
Cashflow Amount as a right in interest rate cap contracts written by the Holder
of the Class X/N Interest, and (ii) from the Reserve Account as a right in
interest rate cap contracts written by the Trustee, in favor of the Holders of
the Cap Carryover Certificates, and the Trustee shall account for such as
property held separate and apart from the regular interests it holds in each of
the REMICs created hereunder. This provision is intended to satisfy the
requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(i) for the treatment of
property rights coupled with regular interests to be separately respected and
shall be interpreted consistent with such regulation. On each Distribution Date,
to the extent the Cap Carryover Certificates receive payments in respect of Net
WAC Carryover Amounts pursuant to Section 4.02(b)(xxxvi) or (xxvii), such
interest will be treated as distributed on the REMIC 2 X/N Interest, then on the
REMIC X/N X/N Interest and then paid to the respective Class of Cap Carryover
Certificates pursuant to the related interest rate cap agreement.
(m) [RESERVED]
(n) In the event that the beneficial ownership of the Class N
Certificates and the Class X Certificates is held by a single Person for federal
income tax purposes or by multiple Persons who beneficially own the Class N and
Class X Certificates proportionately, such Person or Persons shall be treated as
the direct or indirect beneficial owner of the Class X/N Interest and the REMIC
X/N Regular Interest represented thereby. In the event the Trustee receives
written notice that beneficial ownership of the Class N and the Class X
Certificates is held by two or more Persons for tax purposes that do not
beneficially own the Class N and Class X Certificates proportionately, the
Trustee shall treat the Class N Certificateholders and the Class X
Certificateholders as partners in a partnership that owns the Class X/N Interest
and the REMIC X/N Regular Interest represented thereby for federal income tax
purposes and shall not treat the Class N and Class X Certificates as a direct
interest in any REMIC created hereunder. By acquiring the Class N Certificates
and the Class X Certificates, the respective Holders will agree to treat the
Class N Certificates and the Class X Certificates in the manner described in the
preceding sentences for federal income tax purposes in the event that the
beneficial ownership of the Class N Certificates and the Class X Certificates is
separated. In such event, (i) a separate capital account shall be established
and maintained for each Holder of a Class N or Class X Certificate in accordance
with Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv), which shall be credited
with income or gain and debited by any expenses (including any payments deemed
made to the Holders of any of the Cap Carryover Certificates on interest rate
cap agreements for federal income tax purposes) or losses and distributions
allocable to such Certificates, (ii) the Class N Certificates shall be allocated
income in an amount equal to interest at the Pass-Through Rate thereon and any
original issue discount that would be reportable thereon if the Class N
Certificate were a debt instrument issued on the date ownership of the Class N
and Class X Certificates is separated, with a principal balance equal to its
Notional Amount, (iii) the Class X and Class N Certificates shall be allocated
income with respect to all prepayment penalties (including amounts in connection
with the full or partial waiver of such prepayment penalties or premiums
pursuant to Section 3.01) in accordance with the allocation of such amounts
pursuant to Section 4.02(c), to the extent not allocated pursuant to Section
9.01(n)(ii) above, (iv) the Class X and Class N Certificates shall be allocated
accruals (under any reasonable method) of any "cap premiums" deemed received on
the date ownership of the Class X and Class N Certificates is separated in
respect of the obligation of the Class X/N Interest to pay Net WAC Carryover
Amounts, and shall be allocated expense in respect of such Net WAC Carryover
Amounts based on which one of such Classes economically bears such expense, (v)
the Class X Certificates shall be allocated all remaining income and any
expenses and Realized Losses with respect to the Class X/N Interest, until the
capital account of the Class X Certificates is reduced to zero, and any
remaining expenses or losses shall be allocated to the Class N Certificates,
(vi) neither the Class N Certificates nor the Class X Certificates shall be
responsible for restoring any deficit to its capital account, (vii) upon
termination of the Trust Fund pursuant to Article X, all amounts available for
distribution to Holders of the Class N and Class X Certificates shall be
distributed in accordance with their positive capital account balances, first to
the Class N Certificates until their Notional Amount and any accrued but unpaid
interest thereon are reduced to zero, and then to the Class X Certificates, and
(viii) the Trustee shall maintain books and records with respect to the
partnership on a calendar year basis (unless a different taxable year shall be
required by the Code) and shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and cause the
Holder of the largest Percentage Interest of the Class X Certificates to sign
and file or cause to be filed all federal and state tax and information returns
for the partnership, and shall furnish or cause to be furnished Schedule K-1 to
the Holders of the Class N and Class X Certificates at the time required by the
Code. Unless otherwise directed by a majority of the Percentage Interests of the
Class X and Class N Certificates, the Trustee shall not make an election under
Section 754 of the Code. The Holder of the largest Percentage Interest of the
Class X Certificates, by acceptance of its Class X Certificate, agrees to act as
"tax matters partner" (within the meaning of Section 6231(a)(7) of the Code) and
to sign and timely file all federal and state partnership tax and information
returns prepared by the Trustee pursuant to this Section 9.01(n).
124
Section 9.02 Prohibited Transactions and Activities.
Neither the Seller, the Depositor, the Servicer nor the Trustee shall
sell, dispose of, or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans, except in a
disposition pursuant to (i) the foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, (ii) the
bankruptcy of the Trust Fund, (iii) the termination of any REMIC pursuant to
Article X of this Agreement, (iv) a substitution pursuant to Article II of this
Agreement or (v) a repurchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II of this
Agreement, nor acquire any assets for any REMIC constituting part of the Trust
Fund, nor sell or dispose of any investments in the Distribution Account for
gain, nor accept any contributions to any REMIC constituting part of the Trust
Fund after the Closing Date, unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel (at
the expense of the party causing such sale, disposition, or substitution) that
such disposition, acquisition, substitution, or acceptance will not (a) affect
adversely the status of such REMIC as a REMIC or of the interests therein other
than the Residual Certificates as the regular interests therein, (b) affect the
distribution of interest or principal on the Certificates, (c) result in the
encumbrance of the assets transferred or assigned to the Trust Fund (except
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement) or (d) cause such REMIC to be
subject to a tax on prohibited transactions or prohibited contributions pursuant
to the REMIC Provisions.
Section 9.03 Indemnification with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of
REMIC Status.
In the event that any REMIC formed hereunder fails to qualify as a
REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a
result of a prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution under the REMIC
Provisions due to the negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and
obligations set forth herein, the Servicer shall indemnify the Holder of the
related Residual Certificate against any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or expenses ("Losses") resulting from such negligence; provided,
however, that the Servicer shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable
to the action or inaction of the Trustee, the Depositor or the Holder of such
Residual Certificate, as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from
misinformation provided by the Holder of such Residual Certificate on which the
Servicer has relied. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the
rights and remedies of the Holder of such Residual Certificate now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no
event shall the Servicer have any liability (1) for any action or omission that
is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or
which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses
other than arising out of a negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties
and obligations set forth herein, and (3) for any special or consequential
damages to Certificateholders (in addition to payment of principal and interest
on the Certificates).
125
Section 9.04 REO Property.
(a) Subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations as
shall at any time be in force, and notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, the Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trust hereunder, shall not
rent, lease, or otherwise earn income on behalf of any REMIC constituting part
of the Trust Fund with respect to any REO Property which might cause such REO
Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure" property within the meaning of
section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by any REMIC
constituting part of the Trust Fund of any "income from non-permitted assets"
within the meaning of section 860F(a)(2) of the Code or any "net income from
foreclosure property" which is subject to tax under the REMIC Provisions unless
the Servicer has advised the Trustee in writing to the effect that, under the
REMIC Provisions, such action would not adversely affect the status of any REMIC
constituting part of the Trust Fund as a REMIC and any income generated for such
REMIC by the REO Property would not result in the imposition of a tax upon such
REMIC.
(b) The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to sell any REO
Property for its fair market value. In any event, however, the Servicer shall
dispose of any REO Property before the close of the third calendar year
beginning after the year of its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the
Servicer has received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service to
the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions and any relevant proposed
legislation and under applicable state law, any REMIC constituting part of the
Trust Fund may hold REO Property for a longer period without adversely affecting
its REMIC status or causing the imposition of a Federal or state tax upon any
REMIC. If the Servicer has received such an extension, then the Servicer shall
continue to attempt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value as
determined in good faith by the Servicer for such longer period as such
extension permits (the "Extended Period"). If the Servicer has not received such
an extension and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within 33
months after its acquisition by the Trust Fund or if the Servicer has received
such an extension, and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within
the period ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the
Servicer shall, before the end of the applicable period, (i) purchase such REO
Property at a price equal to the REO Property's fair market value as determined
in good faith by the Servicer or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest
bidder (which may be the Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce
a fair price prior to the expiration of the applicable period.
Section 9.05 Grantor Trust Administration.
The parties intend that the portions of the Trust Fund consisting of
the REMIC X/N X/N Interest and the obligation to pay Net WAC Carryover Amounts
(other than such amounts funded by the Reserve Account), shall be treated as a
"grantor trust" under the Code, and the provisions hereof shall be interpreted
consistently with this intention. In furtherance of such intention, the Trustee
shall furnish or cause to be furnished (i) to the Holders of the Cap Carryover
Certificates and (ii) to the Holder of the Class X and Class N Certificates (if
there is a single beneficial owner thereof) or to itself on behalf of the
partnership comprised of the Holders of the Class X and Class N Certificates (if
there are two or more beneficial owners thereof), and shall file or cause to be
filed with the Internal Revenue Service together with Form 1041 or such other
form as may be applicable, indicating their allocable shares of income with
respect to the property held by the Grantor Trust, at the time or times and in
the manner required by the Code.

Section 10.01 Termination.
(a) The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Seller,
the Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar created
hereby (other than the obligation of the Trustee to make certain payments to
Certificateholders after the final Distribution Date and the obligation of the
Servicer to send certain notices as hereinafter set forth) shall terminate upon
notice to the Trustee upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which
the Certificate Principal Balance of each Class of Certificates has been reduced
to zero, (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan
in the Trust Fund, and (iii) the optional purchase by the Servicer of the
Mortgage Loans as described below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, 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.
The Servicer (or an Affiliate) may, at its option, terminate the
Mortgage Loans in the Trust Fund and retire the Certificates on the next
succeeding Distribution Date upon which the current Pool Balance is 10% or less
of the Pool Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date by purchasing
all of the outstanding (i) Mortgage Loans in the Trust Fund at a price equal to
the sum of the outstanding Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and except to
the extent previously advanced by the Servicer, accrued and unpaid interest
thereon at the weighted average of the Mortgage Interest Rates through the end
of the Collection Period preceding the final Distribution Date plus unreimbursed
Servicing Advances, Advances and any unpaid Servicing Fees allocable to such
Mortgage Loans plus any costs or damages incurred by the Trust Fund in
connection with any violation by such Mortgage Loan of any predatory or abusive
lending laws and (ii) REO Properties in the Trust Fund at a price equal to their
fair market value as determined in good faith by the Servicer (the "Termination
Price"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer (or an Affiliate) may not
exercise its optional purchase right unless any Reimbursement Amount owed to the
Trust pursuant to Section 2.03 hereof has been paid.
In connection with any such purchase pursuant to the preceding
paragraph, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the
Distribution Account all amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account (less
amounts permitted to be withdrawn by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.07),
which deposit shall be deemed to have occurred immediately following such
purchase.
Any such purchase shall be accomplished by delivery to the Trustee for
deposit into the Distribution Account as part of Available Funds on the
Determination Date before such Distribution Date of the Termination Price.
(b) Notice of any termination, specifying the 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 Trustee upon the Trustee receiving notice of such date from the Servicer, by
letter to the Certificateholders mailed not earlier than the 15th day of the
month preceding the month of such final distribution and not later than the 15th
day of the month of such final distribution specifying (1) the Distribution Date
upon which final distribution of the Certificates will be made upon presentation
and surrender of such Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee
therein designated, (2) the amount of any such final distribution and (3) that
the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not
applicable, distributions being made only upon presentation and surrender of the
Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee therein specified. Not less
than five (5) Business Days prior to such Determination Date relating to such
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall notify the Seller of the amount of any
unpaid Reimbursement Amount owed to the Trust.
127
(c) Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the
Trustee shall cause to be distributed to the Holders of the Certificates on the
Distribution Date for such final distribution, in proportion to the Percentage
Interests of their respective Class and to the extent that funds are available
for such purpose, an amount equal to the amount required to be distributed to
such Holders in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.02.
(d) In the event that all Certificateholders shall not surrender
their Certificates for final payment and cancellation on or before such final
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall promptly following such date cause all
funds in the Distribution 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 Servicer (if the Servicer has
exercised its right to purchase the Mortgage Loans) 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 nine months after the second notice all the
Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Class R
Certificateholders shall be entitled to all unclaimed funds and other assets
which remain subject hereto and the Trustee upon transfer of such funds shall be
discharged of any responsibility for such funds, and such Certificateholders
shall look to the Class R Certificateholders for payment.
Section 10.02 Additional Termination Requirements.
(a) In the event that the Servicer exercises its purchase option
as provided in Section 10.01, the Trust shall be terminated in accordance with
the following additional requirements, unless the Trustee shall have been
furnished with an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the failure of the Trust
to comply with the requirements of this Section will not (i) result in the
imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of the Trust as defined in
Section 860F of the Code or (ii) cause any REMIC constituting part of the Trust
Fund to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are
outstanding:
(i) The Trustee shall designate a date within 90 days prior to
the final Distribution Date as the date of adoption of plans of complete
liquidation delivered to it by the Servicer of each of the remaining REMICs
included in the Trust Fund and shall specify such date in the final federal
income tax return of each REMIC;
(ii) After the date of adoption of such plans of complete
liquidation and at or prior to the final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall
sell all of the assets of the Trust to the Servicer for cash; and

Certificates, the Trustee shall distribute or credit, or cause to be distributed
or credited in the following order of priority (A) (i) to the Holders of each of
the Class AV-1, Class AV-2, Class AV-3, Class AF-1A, Class AF-1B, Class AF-1C,

128
(b) By their acceptance of Certificates, the Holders thereof
hereby agree to appoint the Trustee as their attorney in fact to: (i) designate
such date of adoption of plans of complete liquidation and (ii) to take such
other action in connection therewith as may be reasonably required to carry out
such plans of complete liquidation all in accordance with the terms hereof.

provisions herein, (iii) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or
questions arising under this Agreement, which shall not be inconsistent with the
provisions of this Agreement, or (iv) to comply with any requirements imposed by
the Code; provided, however, that any such action listed in clause (i) through
(iv) above shall not adversely affect in any respect the interests of any
Certificateholder, as evidenced by (i) notice in writing to the Depositor, the
Servicer and the Trustee from the Rating Agencies that such action will not
result in the reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any outstanding Class of
Certificates with respect to which it is a Rating Agency, or (ii) an Opinion of
Counsel delivered to the Servicer and the Trustee.
In addition, this Agreement may be amended from time to time by Seller,
the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee, with the consent of the Majority
Certificateholders for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in
any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of
modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates; provided,
however, that no such amendment or waiver shall (x) reduce in any manner the
amount of, or delay the timing of, payments on the Certificates which are
required to be made on any Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such
Certificate, (y) adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the
Holders of any Class of Certificates in a manner other than as described in
clause (x) above, without the consent of the Holders of Certificates of such
Class evidencing at least a 66 2/3% Percentage Interest in such Class, or (z)
reduce the percentage of Voting Rights required by clause (y) above without the
consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding. Upon
approval of an amendment, a copy of such amendment shall be sent to the Rating
Agencies. Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the Trustee
shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense
of the Person seeking such amendment) stating that the execution of such
amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement. The Trustee may, but
shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects the
Trustee's own rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the
Trustee shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall
have first received an Opinion of Counsel, delivered by (and at the expense of)
the Person seeking such Amendment, to the effect that such amendment is
permitted hereunder and will not result in the imposition of a tax on any REMIC
constituting part of the Trust Fund pursuant to the REMIC Provisions or cause
any REMIC constituting part of the Trust to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any
time that any Certificates are outstanding and that the amendment is being made
in accordance with the terms hereof.
129
Promptly after the execution of any such amendment the Trustee shall
furnish, at the expense of the Person that requested the amendment if such
Person is the Seller or the Servicer (but in no event at the expense of the
Trustee), otherwise at the expense of the Trust, a copy of such amendment and
the Opinion of Counsel referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph to the
Servicer and each Rating Agency.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under
this Section 11.01 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment;
instead 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.
Section 11.02 Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.

public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by the
Servicer at the expense of the Trust, but only upon direction of
Certificateholders, accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such
recordation materially and beneficially affects 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 together constitute but
one and the same instrument.

to terminate this Agreement or the Trust, (ii) entitle such Certificateholder's
legal representatives 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, or (iii)
otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto
or any of them.
Except as expressly provided for herein, no Certificateholder shall
have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the operation and
management of the Trust, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall
anything herein set forth or contained in the terms of the Certificates be

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.
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 herein provided, and unless also the Holders of
Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights 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 15 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 is understood
and intended, and expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every
other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of
Certificates 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, or to obtain or seek to obtain
priority over or preference to any other such Holder, which priority or
preference is not otherwise provided for herein, or to enforce any right under
this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable
and common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement
of the provisions of this Section 11.03 each and every Certificateholder and the

No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless that transfer is
made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act and
effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws,
or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or
qualification. In the event that a transfer is to be made without registration
or qualification (i) the Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer and
such Certificateholder's prospective transferee shall each execute a
representation letter in the form described by the Agreement certifying to the
Certificate Registrar the facts surrounding the transfer, and (ii) unless such
transfer is made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, the Depositor
and the Certificate Registrar may require an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to
them that such transfer may be made without such registration or qualification,
which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Trustee
or the Certificate Registrar, in their respective capacities as such. None of
the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee is obligated to register
or qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933
Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required
under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without
registration or qualification. Any such Certificateholder desiring to effect
such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the
Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Servicer 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. Each Person who acquires this Certificate or an
interest therein shall be deemed to have made the representations required by
the representation letter referred to in this paragraph, unless such Person
shall have provided such representation letter referred to in this paragraph to
the Certificate Registrar.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange of Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed
in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, any Paying Agent and the
Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee,
any Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name
this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of
the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying
Agent nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created
thereby shall terminate upon payment to the 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 final payment or other
liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan
remaining in the Trust Fund, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in
the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from the Trust
Fund of all Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage
Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the
Agreement to purchase from the Trust Fund all Mortgage Loans and all property
acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in
the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being 10% or
less of the Cut-off Date Aggregate Principal Balance.
The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as C-BASS Mortgage Loan Asset-Backed Certificates of the Series
specified on the face hereof (herein called the "Certificates") and representing
the Percentage Interest specified on the face hereof.
The Class R 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. As provided in the
Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account
may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to
Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or
certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Seller and the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the
Servicer, the Seller and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of
Certificates entitled to the Voting Rights identified in the Agreement. 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 this Certificate.
The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited
circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the 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 as provided in the Agreement, duly
endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written

Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same
Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage
Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without
coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified
in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new
Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same
aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless that transfer is
made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act and
effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws,
or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or
qualification. In the event that a transfer is to be made without registration
or qualification (i) the Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer and
such Certificateholder's prospective transferee shall each execute a
representation letter in the form described by the Agreement certifying to the
Certificate Registrar the facts surrounding the transfer, and (ii) unless such
transfer is made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, the Depositor
and the Certificate Registrar may require an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to
them that such transfer may be made without such registration or qualification,
which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Trustee
or the Certificate Registrar, in their respective capacities as such. None of
the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee is obligated to register
or qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933
Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required
under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without
registration or qualification. Any such Certificateholder desiring to effect
such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the
Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Servicer 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.
C-1-1-3
No transfer of a Certificate or any interest therein may be made to
employee benefit plans and certain other retirement plans and arrangements,
including individual retirement accounts and annuities, Xxxxx plans and
collective investment funds and separate accounts in which such plans, accounts
or arrangements are invested that are subject to the fiduciary responsibility
provisions of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code ("Plans") or any person who is
directly or indirectly purchasing the Certificate or interest therein on behalf
of, as named fiduciary of, as trustee of, or with assets of a Plan.
The Holder of this Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, shall be
deemed for all purposes to have consented to the provisions of Section 5.02 of
the Agreement and to any amendment of the Agreement deemed necessary by counsel
of the Depositor to ensure that the transfer of this Certificate to any Person
other than a Permitted Transferee or any other Person will not cause any REMIC
provided for in the Trust Agreement to cease to qualify as a REMIC or cause the
imposition of a tax upon the Trust.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange of Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed
in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, any Paying Agent and the
Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee,
any Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name
this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of
the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying
Agent nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created
thereby shall terminate upon payment to the 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 final payment or other
liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan
remaining in the Trust Fund, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in
the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from the Trust
Fund of all Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage
Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the
Agreement to purchase from the Trust Fund all Mortgage Loans and all property
acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in
the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being 10% or
less of the Cut-off Date Aggregate Principal Balance.
The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the
Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.
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.

Date pursuant to the Agreement.
All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement

surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as C-BASS Mortgage Loan Asset-Backed Certificates of the Series
specified on the face hereof (herein called the "Certificates") and representing
a Percentage Interest in the Class M-1 Certificates.
The Class M-1 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. As provided in the
Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account
may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to
Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or
certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
This Certificate is subordinated in right of payment to the Class A
Certificates as described in the Agreement.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Seller and the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the
Servicer, the Seller and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of
Certificates entitled to the Voting Rights identified in the Agreement. 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 this Certificate.
The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited
circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the 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 as provided in the Agreement, 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 the same
Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage
Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
C-2-3
The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without
coupons in Classes and 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 the same Class in authorized
denominations evidencing the same 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 of Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed
in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, any Paying Agent and the
Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee,
any Paying Agent or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name
this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of
the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying
Agent nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created
thereby shall terminate upon payment to the 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 final payment or other
liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan
remaining in the Trust Fund, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in
the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from the Trust
Fund of all Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage
Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the
Agreement to purchase from the Trust Fund all Mortgage Loans and all property
acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in
the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being 10% or
less of the Cut-off Date Aggregate Principal Balance.
The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the
Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.
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.

Permitted Transferee is the record Holder of an interest in such entity. The
Transferee understands that, other than in the case of an "electing large
partnership" under Section 775 of the Code, such tax will not be imposed for any
period with respect to which the record Holder furnishes to the pass-through
entity an affidavit that such record Holder is a Permitted Transferee and the
pass-through entity does not have actual knowledge that such affidavit is false.

transferred to any Person that the Transferee knows is not a Permitted
Transferee.

7701(a)(30).

"noneconomic residual interest" within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
promulgated pursuant to the Code and that the transferor of a noneconomic
residual interest will remain liable for any taxes due with respect to the
income on such residual interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer
was to impede the assessment or collection of tax.
12. The Transferee will not cause income from the Residual Certificate
to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within
the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty, of the Transferee or any other
person.
