PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
In exchange for the Certificates, the Depositor hereby conveys the
Trust Estate to the Trustee to create the Trust. The Trust Estate for federal
income tax purposes will be treated as a real estate mortgage investment conduit
(the "REMIC"). The Senior Certificates (other than the Class 1-A-R and Class
X-PO Certificates) and the Class B Certificates are referred to collectively as
the "Regular Certificates" and shall constitute "regular interests" in the
REMIC. The Class 1-X-PO Component and Class 2-X-PO Component (collectively, the
"Components") shall also constitute "regular interests" in the REMIC. The Class
1-A-R Certificate shall be the "residual interest" in the REMIC. The
Certificates will represent the entire beneficial ownership interest in the
Trust. The "latest possible maturity date" for federal income tax purposes of
all interests created hereby will be the REMIC Certificate Maturity Date.
The following table sets forth characteristics of the Certificates
and the Components, together with the minimum denominations and integral
multiples in excess thereof in which the Classes of Certificates shall be

ARTICLE II
CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS
ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES
Section 2.01 Conveyance of Mortgage Loans. (a) The Depositor,
concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, hereby sells, transfers,
assigns, sets over and otherwise conveys to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust
for the benefit of the Certificateholders, without recourse, all the right,
title and interest of the Depositor in and to the Mortgage Loans, including all
interest and principal received on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other
than payments of principal and interest due and payable on the Mortgage Loans on
or before the Cut-Off Date). The foregoing sale, transfer, assignment and set
over does not and is not intended to result in a creation of an assumption by
the Trustee of any obligation of the Depositor or any other Person in connection
with the Mortgage Loans or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, except
as specifically set forth herein. It is agreed and understood by the parties
hereto that it is not intended that any mortgage loan be included in the Trust
that is a "High-Cost Home Loan" as defined in either (i) the New Jersey Home
Ownership Act effective November 27, 2003 or (ii) the New Mexico Home Loan
Protection Act effective January 1, 2004.
(b) In connection with such transfer and assignment, the Depositor
has delivered or caused to be delivered to the Custodian, on behalf of the
Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the following documents or
instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan so assigned:
(i) the original Mortgage Note, endorsed by manual or
facsimile signature in the following form: "Pay to the order of
Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A., as trustee for holders of Banc of America
Funding Corporation, Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series
2004-3, without recourse," with all necessary intervening
endorsements showing a complete chain of endorsement from the
originator to the Trustee (each such endorsement being sufficient to
transfer all right, title and interest of the party so endorsing, as
noteholder or assignee thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note) and,
in the case of any Mortgage Loan originated in the State of New York
documented by a NYCEMA, the NYCEMA, the new Mortgage Note, if
applicable, the consolidated Mortgage Note and the consolidated
Mortgage;
(ii) except as provided below, the original recorded Mortgage
with evidence of a recording thereon, or if any such Mortgage has
not been returned from the applicable recording office or has been
lost, or if such public recording office retains the original
recorded Mortgage, a copy of such Mortgage certified by the
Depositor as being a true and correct copy of the Mortgage;
(iii) subject to the provisos at the end of this paragraph, a
duly executed Assignment of Mortgage to "Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A., as
trustee for the holders of Banc of America Funding Corporation,
Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2004-3" (which may be
included in a blanket assignment or assignments), together with,
except as provided below, originals of all interim recorded
assignments of such mortgage or a copy of such interim assignment
certified by the Depositor as being a true and complete copy of the
original recorded intervening assignments of Mortgage (each such
assignment, when duly and validly completed, to be in recordable
form and sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer to the
assignee thereof, under the Mortgage to which the assignment
relates); provided that, if the related Mortgage has not been
returned from the applicable public recording office, such
Assignment of Mortgage may exclude the information to be provided by
the recording office; and provided, further, if the related Mortgage
has been recorded in the name of Mortgage Electronic Registration
Systems, Inc. ("MERS") or its designee, no Assignment of Mortgage in
favor of the Trustee will be required to be prepared or delivered
and instead, the Master Servicer shall take all actions as are
necessary to cause the Trust to be shown as the owner of the related
Mortgage Loan on the records of MERS for purposes of the system of
recording transfers of beneficial ownership of mortgages maintained
by MERS;
(iv) the originals of all assumption, modification,
consolidation or extension agreements, if any, with evidence of
recording thereon, if any;
(v) the original or duplicate original mortgagee title
insurance policy and all riders thereto;
(vi) the original of any guarantee executed in connection with
the Mortgage Note;
(vii) for each Mortgage Loan, if any, which is secured by a
residential long-term lease, a copy of the lease with evidence of
recording indicated thereon, or, if the lease is in the process of
being recorded, a photocopy of the lease, certified by an officer of
the respective prior owner of such Mortgage Loan or by the
applicable title insurance company, closing/settlement/escrow agent
or company or closing attorney to be a true and correct copy of the
lease transmitted for recordation;
(viii) the original of any security agreement, chattel
mortgage or equivalent document executed in connection with the
Mortgage; and
(ix) for each Mortgage Loan secured by Cooperative Stock, the
originals of the following documents or instruments:
(A) The stock certificate;
(B) The stock power executed in blank;
(C) The executed proprietary lease;
(D) The executed recognition agreement;
(E) The executed assignment of recognition agreement, if
any;
(F) The executed UCC-1 financing statement with evidence
of recording thereon; and
(G) Executed UCC-3 financing statements or other
appropriate UCC financing statements required by state law,
evidencing a complete and unbroken line from the mortgagee to
the Trustee with evidence of recording thereon (or in a form
suitable for recordation).
provided, however, that on the Closing Date, with respect to item (iii), the
Depositor has delivered to the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, a copy of
such Assignment of Mortgage in blank and has caused the Master Servicer to
retain the completed Assignment of Mortgage for recording as described below,
unless such Mortgage has been recorded in the name of MERS or its designee. In
addition, if the Depositor is unable to deliver or cause the delivery of any
original Mortgage Note due to the loss of such original Mortgage Note, the
Depositor may deliver a copy of such Mortgage Note, together with a lost note
affidavit, and shall thereby be deemed to have satisfied the document delivery
requirements of this Section 2.01(b).
If in connection with any Mortgage Loans, the Depositor cannot
deliver (A) the Mortgage, (B) all interim recorded assignments, (C) all
assumption, modification, consolidation or extension agreements, if any, or (D)
the lender's title policy (together with all riders thereto) satisfying the
requirements of clause (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) above, respectively,
concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof because such document or
documents have not been returned from the applicable public recording office in
the case of clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, or because the title policy has
not been delivered to either the Master Servicer or the Depositor by the
applicable title insurer in the case of clause (v) above, the Depositor shall
promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the Custodian, on behalf of the
Trustee, in the case of clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, such Mortgage, such
interim assignment or such assumption, modification, consolidation or extension
agreement, as the case may be, with evidence of recording indicated thereon upon
receipt thereof from the public recording office, but in no event shall any such
delivery of any such documents or instruments be made later than one year
following the Closing Date, unless, in the case of clause (ii), (iii) or (iv)
above, there has been a continuing delay at the applicable recording office or,
in the case of clause (v), there has been a continuing delay at the applicable
insurer and the Depositor has delivered the Officer's Certificate to such effect
to the Trustee. The Depositor shall forward or cause to be forwarded to the
Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee (1) from time to time additional original
documents evidencing an assumption or modification of a Mortgage Loan and (2)
any other documents required to be delivered by the Depositor or the Master
Servicer to the Custodian on the Trustee's behalf. In the event that the
original Mortgage is not delivered and in connection with the payment in full of
the related Mortgage Loan the public recording office requires the presentation
of a "lost instruments affidavit and indemnity" or any equivalent document,
because only a copy of the Mortgage can be delivered with the instrument of
satisfaction or reconveyance, the Master Servicer shall prepare, execute and
deliver or cause to be prepared, executed and delivered, on behalf of the Trust,
such a document to the public recording office.
As promptly as practicable subsequent to such transfer and
assignment, and in any event, within 30 days thereafter, the Master Servicer
shall (except for any Mortgage which has been recorded in the name of MERS or
its designee) (I) cause each Assignment of Mortgage to be in proper form for
recording in the appropriate public office for real property records within 30
days of the Closing Date and (II) at the Depositor's expense, cause to be
delivered for recording in the appropriate public office for real property
records the Assignments of the Mortgages to the Trustee, except that, with
respect to any Assignment of a Mortgage as to which the Master Servicer has not
received the information required to prepare such assignment in recordable form,
the Master Servicer's obligation to do so and to deliver the same for such
recording shall be as soon as practicable after receipt of such information and
in any event within 30 days after the receipt thereof and, no recording of an
Assignment of Mortgage will be required in a state if either (i) the Depositor
furnishes to the Trustee an unqualified Opinion of Counsel reasonably acceptable
to the Trustee to the effect that recordation of such assignment is not
necessary under applicable state law to preserve the Trustee's interest in the
related Mortgage Loan against the claim of any subsequent transferee of such
Mortgage Loan or any successor to, or creditor of, the Depositor or the
originator of such Mortgage Loan or (ii) the recordation of an Assignment of
Mortgage in such state is not required by either Rating Agency in order to
obtain the initial ratings on the Certificates on the Closing Date. Set forth on
Exhibit L attached hereto is a list of all states where recordation is required
by either Rating Agency to obtain the initial ratings of the Certificates. The
Trustee may rely and shall be protected in relying upon the information
contained in such Exhibit L.
In the case of Mortgage Loans that have been prepaid in full as of
the Closing Date, the Depositor, in lieu of delivering the above documents to
the Custodian on the Trustee's behalf, will cause the Master Servicer to deposit
in the Investment Account the portion of such payment that is required to be
deposited in the Investment Account pursuant to Section 3.03.
Section 2.02 Acceptance by the Custodian of the Mortgage Loans.
Subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, the Trustee declares that
it, or the Custodian as its agent, will hold the documents referred to in
Section 2.01 and the other documents delivered to it constituting the Mortgage
Files, and that it will hold such other assets as are included in the Trust
Estate, in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future
Certificateholders. Upon execution and delivery of this document, the Custodian
will deliver to the Depositor and the Trustee an initial certification in the
form of Exhibit M hereto (the "Initial Certification") to the effect that,
except as may be specified in a list of exceptions attached thereto, it has
received the original Mortgage Note relating to each of the Mortgage Loans
listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule.
Within 90 days after the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, will review the Mortgage Files in its
possession, and will deliver, no later than 30 days after completion of such
review, to the Depositor and the Trustee a certification in the form of Exhibit
N hereto (the ("Final Certification") to the effect that, as to each Mortgage
Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, except as may be specified in a list
of exceptions attached to such Final Certification, such Mortgage File contains
all of the items required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(b).
If, in the course of such review, the Custodian finds any document
constituting a part of a Mortgage File which does not meet the requirements of
Section 2.01 or is omitted from such Mortgage File, the Custodian shall promptly
(and in no event more than 30 days after completion of the review) notify the
Trustee and the Trustee shall promptly so notify the Master Servicer and the
Depositor, or shall cause the Custodian to promptly so notify the Master
Servicer and the Depositor. In performing any such review, the Custodian may
conclusively rely on the purported genuineness of any such document and any
signature thereon. It is understood that the scope of the Custodian's review of
the Mortgage Files is limited solely to confirming that the documents listed in
Section 2.01 have been received and further confirming that any and all
documents delivered pursuant to Section 2.01 appear on their face to have been
executed and relate to the Mortgage Loans identified in the Mortgage Loan
Schedule based solely upon the review of items (i) and (xi) in the definition of
Mortgage Loan Schedule. Neither the Trustee nor the Custodian shall have any
responsibility for determining whether any document is valid and binding,
whether the text of any assignment or endorsement is in proper or recordable
form, whether any document has been recorded in accordance with the requirements
of any applicable jurisdiction, or whether a blanket assignment is permitted in
any applicable jurisdiction. The Depositor hereby covenants and agrees that it
will promptly correct or cure such defect within 90 days from the date it was so
notified of such defect and, if the Depositor does not correct or cure such
defect within such period, the Depositor will either (a) substitute for the
related Mortgage Loan a Substitute Mortgage Loan, which substitution shall be
accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth below or (b)
purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee at the Purchase Price for such
Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall such a substitution
occur more than two years from the Closing Date; provided, further, that such
substitution or repurchase shall occur within 90 days of when such defect was
discovered if such defect will cause the Mortgage Loan not to be a "qualified
mortgage" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code.
With respect to each Substitute Mortgage Loan the Depositor shall
deliver to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the related Assignment of
Mortgage (except for any Mortgage which has been recorded in the name of MERS or
its designee), and such other documents and agreements as are otherwise required
by Section 2.01, with the Mortgage Note endorsed and the Mortgage assigned as
required by Section 2.01. No substitution is permitted to be made in any
calendar month after the Determination Date for such month. Monthly Payments due
with respect to any such Substitute Mortgage Loan in the month of substitution
shall not be part of the Trust Estate and will be retained by the Depositor. For
the month of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will include the
Monthly Payment due for such month on any Defective Mortgage Loan for which the
Depositor has substituted a Substitute Mortgage Loan.
The Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule for the
benefit of the Certificateholders to reflect the removal of each Mortgage Loan
that has become a Defective Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the Substitute
Mortgage Loan or Loans and the Master Servicer shall deliver the amended
Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee and the Custodian. Upon such substitution,
each Substitute Mortgage Loan shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in
all respects, and the Depositor shall be deemed to have made to the Trustee with
respect to such Substitute Mortgage Loan, as of the date of substitution, the
representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 2.04(a) and (b). Upon
any such substitution and the deposit to the Investment Account of any required
Substitution Adjustment Amount (as described in the next paragraph) and receipt
of a Request for Release, the Custodian shall release the Mortgage File relating
to such Defective Mortgage Loan to the Depositor and shall execute and deliver
at the Depositor's direction such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared
by the Depositor, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest
title in the Depositor, or its designee, to the Trustee's interest in any
Defective Mortgage Loan substituted for pursuant to this Section 2.02.
For any month in which the Depositor substitutes one or more
Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Defective Mortgage Loans, the amount
(if any) by which the aggregate principal balance of all such Substitute
Mortgage Loans in a Loan Group as of the date of substitution is less than the
aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all such Defective Mortgage Loans in such
Loan Group (after application of the principal portion of the Monthly Payments
due in the month of substitution) (the "Substitution Adjustment Amount" for such
Loan Group) plus an amount equal to the aggregate of any unreimbursed Advances
with respect to such Defective Mortgage Loans shall be deposited into the
Certificate Account by the Depositor on or before the Remittance Date for the
Distribution Date in the month succeeding the calendar month during which the
related Mortgage Loan is required to be purchased or replaced hereunder. The
Purchase Price of any repurchase and the Substitution Adjustment Amount, if any,
shall be deposited in the Certificate Account.
The Trustee shall cause the Custodian to retain possession and
custody of each Mortgage File in accordance with and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein. The Master Servicer shall promptly deliver to the
Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, upon the execution or, in the case of
documents requiring recording, receipt thereof, the originals of such other
documents or instruments constituting the Mortgage File as come into the Master
Servicer's possession from time to time.
It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Depositor to
substitute for or to purchase any Mortgage Loan which does not meet the
requirements of Section 2.01 shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such
defect available to the Trustee and any Certificateholder against the Depositor.
Neither the Trustee nor the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee,
shall be under any duty or obligation (i) 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
are other than what they purport to be on their face or (ii) to determine
whether any Mortgage File should include any of the documents specified in
Section 2.01(b)(iv), (vi), (vii), (viii) and (ix).
Section 2.03 Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Master
Servicer.
The Master Servicer hereby makes the following representations and
warranties to the Depositor and the Trustee, as of the Closing Date:
(i) The Master Servicer is a corporation duly organized, validly
existing, and in good standing under the laws of the state of Delaware and
has all licenses necessary to carry on its business as now being conducted
and is licensed, qualified and in good standing in each of the states
where a Mortgaged Property is located if the laws of such state require
licensing or qualification in order to conduct business of the type
conducted by the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer has power and
authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform in
accordance herewith; the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement (including all instruments of transfer to be delivered pursuant
to this Agreement) by the Master Servicer and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized.
This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the
other parties hereto, evidences the valid, binding and enforceable
obligation of the Master Servicer, subject to applicable law except as
enforceability may be limited by (A) bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation,
receivership, moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws affecting
the enforcement of creditors' rights generally or creditors of national
banks and (B) general principles of equity, whether enforcement is sought
in a proceeding in equity or at law. All requisite corporate action has
been taken by the Master Servicer to make this Agreement valid and binding
upon the Master Servicer in accordance with its terms.
(ii) No consent, approval, authorization or order is required for
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement from any court,
governmental agency or body, or federal or state regulatory authority
having jurisdiction over the Master Servicer is required or, if required,
such consent, approval, authorization or order has been or will, prior to
the Closing Date, be obtained.
(iii) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement are in the ordinary course of business of the Master Servicer
and will not result in the breach of any term or provision of the
certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Master Servicer or result
in the breach of any term or provision of, or conflict with or constitute
a default under or result in the acceleration of any obligation under, any
agreement, indenture or loan or credit agreement or other instrument to
which the Master Servicer or its property is subject, or result in the
violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree to which
the Master Servicer or its property is subject.
(iv) There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending
or, to the best knowledge of the Master Servicer, threatened against the
Master Servicer which, either individually or in the aggregate, would
result in any material adverse change in the business, operations,
financial condition, properties or assets of the Master Servicer, or in
any material impairment of the right or ability of the Master Servicer to
carry on its business substantially as now conducted or which would draw
into question the validity of this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans or of
any action taken or to be taken in connection with the obligations of the
Master Servicer contemplated herein, or which would materially impair the
ability of the Master Servicer to perform under the terms of this
Agreement.
Section 2.04 Representations and Warranties as to the Mortgage
Loans.
(a) The Representing Party hereby represents and warrants to the
Trustee with respect to the Mortgage Loans or each Mortgage Loan, as the case
may be, as of the date hereof or such other date set forth herein that as of the
Closing Date:
(i) The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule was true
and correct in all material respects at the date or dates respecting which
such information is furnished;
(ii) As of the Closing Date, each Mortgage relating to a Mortgage
Loan that is not a Cooperative Loan is a valid and enforceable (subject to
Section 2.04(a)(xv)) first lien on an unencumbered estate in fee simple or
(if the related Mortgage Loan is secured by the interest of the Mortgagor
as a lessee under a ground lease) leasehold estate in the related
Mortgaged Property subject only to (a) liens for current real property
taxes and special assessments; (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions,
rights of way, easements and other matters of public record as of the date
of recording such Mortgage, such exceptions appearing of record being
acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally or specifically
reflected in the appraisal obtained in connection with the origination of
the Mortgage Loan; (c) exceptions set forth in the title insurance policy
relating to such Mortgage, such exceptions being acceptable to mortgage
lending institutions generally; and (d) other matters to which like
properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the
benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage;
(iii) As of the day prior to the Cut-Off Date, all payments due on
each Mortgage Loan had been made and no Mortgage Loan had been delinquent
(i.e., was more than 30 days past due) more than once in the preceding 12
months and any such delinquency lasted for no more than 30 days, except
that approximately 0.98% of the Group 1 Mortgage Loans and approximately
0.52% of the Group 2 Mortgage Loans (each by aggregate Stated Principal
Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group or Loan Groups as
of the Cut-off Date) have been more than 30 days delinquent more than once
during the previous twelve months.
(iv) As of the Closing Date, there is no late assessment for
delinquent taxes outstanding against any Mortgaged Property;
(v) As of the Closing Date, there is no offset, defense or
counterclaim to any Mortgage Note, including the obligation of the

federal or state authority or by a mortgagee approved by the FHA and will

requirements established by the Company;
(ix) As of the Closing Date, each Mortgage Loan that is not a
Cooperative Loan is covered by an ALTA form or CLTA form of mortgagee

issued by, and is the valid and binding obligation of, a title insurer
which, as of the origination date of such Mortgage Loan, was qualified to
do business in the state in which the related Mortgaged Property is
located. Such policy insures the originator of the Mortgage Loan, its
successors and assigns as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in
the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan subject to the
exceptions set forth in such policy. Such policy is in full force and
effect and inures to the benefit of the Trust upon the consummation of the

under such policy, and no prior holder of the related Mortgage has done,
by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such
policy;

respect to the Mortgage Loans or each Mortgage Loan, as the case may be, as of
the date hereof or such other date set forth herein that as of the Closing Date:
(i) Immediately prior to the transfer and assignment contemplated
herein, the Depositor was the sole owner and holder of the Mortgage Loans.

Depositor had good and marketable title thereto, and the Depositor had
full right to transfer and sell the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee free and
clear of any encumbrance, participation interest, lien, equity, pledge,
claim or security interest and had full right and authority subject to no
interest or participation in, or agreement with any other party to sell or

(c) It is understood and agreed that the representations and
warranties set forth in this Section 2.04 shall survive delivery of the
respective Mortgage Files to the Custodian and shall inure to the benefit of the
Trustee, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement or assignment.
Upon discovery by any of the Depositor, the Representing Party, the
Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Custodian that any of the representations
and warranties set forth in this Section 2.04 is not accurate (referred to
herein as a "breach") and that such breach materially and adversely affects the
interests of the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan, the party
discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties
(any Custodian being so obligated under a Custodial Agreement); provided that
any such breach that causes the Mortgage Loan not to be a "qualified mortgage"
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code shall be deemed to
materially and adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders. Within
90 days of its discovery or its receipt of notice of any such breach, the
Representing Party, if such breach relates to a representation and warranty set
forth in Section 2.04(a), or the Depositor, if such breach relates to a
representation and warranty set forth in Section 2.04(b), shall cure such breach
in all material respects or shall either (i) repurchase the Mortgage Loan or any
property acquired in respect thereof from the Trustee at a price equal to the

defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such repurchase or substitution
must occur within 90 days from the date the breach was discovered. In addition
to the foregoing, if a breach of the representation set forth in clause (vii) of
Section 2.04(a) occurs as a result of a violation of an applicable predatory or
abusive lending law, the Representing Party 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 Purchase Price of any repurchase
described in this paragraph, the Substitution Adjustment Amount, if any, and any
Reimbursement Amount shall be deposited in the Certificate Account. It is
understood and agreed that, except with respect to the second preceding
sentence, the obligation of the Representing Party or the Depositor, as
applicable, to repurchase or substitute for any Mortgage Loan or Mortgaged
Property as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall
constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to
Certificateholders, or to the Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders, and such
obligation shall survive until termination of the Trust hereunder.

ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 3.01 Master Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans. The Master
shall act as Master Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans on
behalf of the Trust in accordance with the terms hereof, consistent with prudent
mortgage loan servicing practices and (unless inconsistent with prudent mortgage
loan servicing practices) in the same manner in which, and with the same care,
skill, prudence and diligence with which, it services and administers similar
mortgage loans for other portfolios, and shall have full power and authority to
do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and
administration which a prudent servicer of mortgage loans would do under similar
circumstances, including, without limitation, the power and authority to bring
actions and defend the Trust Estate on behalf of the Trust in order to enforce
the terms of the Mortgage Notes. The Master Servicer may perform its master
servicing responsibilities through agents or independent contractors, including
Servicers, but shall not thereby be released from any of its master servicing or
servicing responsibilities hereunder and the Master Servicer shall diligently
pursue all of its rights against such agents or independent contractors.
The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect or
cause to be collected all payments called for under the terms and provisions of
the Mortgage Loans and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent
with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any Primary Mortgage
Insurance Policy, any FHA insurance policy or VA guaranty, any hazard insurance
policy, and federal flood insurance, cause to be followed such collection
procedures as are followed with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the
Mortgage Loans and held in portfolios of responsible mortgage lenders in the
local areas where each Mortgaged Property is located. The Master Servicer shall
enforce "due-on-sale" clauses with respect to the related Mortgage Loans, to the
extent permitted by law, subject to the provisions set forth in Section 3.08.
Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may, in
accordance with prudent mortgage loan servicing practices, (i) waive or cause to
be waived any assumption fee or late payment charge in connection with the
prepayment of any Mortgage Loan and (ii) only upon determining that the coverage
of any applicable insurance policy or guaranty related to a Mortgage Loan will
not be materially adversely affected, arrange a schedule, running for no more
than 180 days after the first delinquent Due Date, for payment of any delinquent
installment on any Mortgage Note or for the liquidation of delinquent items. The
Master Servicer shall have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase any
Mortgage Loan delinquent 90 consecutive days or more for an amount equal to its
Purchase Price; provided, however, that the aggregate Purchase Price of Mortgage
Loans so purchased pursuant to this sentence shall not exceed one-half of one
percent (0.50%) of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance, as of the Cut-Off
Date, of all Mortgage Loans. For purposes of this paragraph, a Mortgage Loan is
considered delinquent for 90 consecutive days if a Monthly Payment is not
received by the first day of the third month following the month during which
such payment was due.
Consistent with the terms of this Section 3.01, the Master 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 it has determined, exercising its good faith
business judgment in the same manner as it would if it were the owner of the
related Mortgage Loan, that the security for, and the timely and full
collectability of, such Mortgage Loan would not be adversely affected by such
waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence; provided, however, that the
Master Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage
Loan that would (i) change the applicable Mortgage Interest Rate, defer (except
as permitted in the preceding paragraph) or forgive the payment of any principal
or interest, reduce the outstanding principal balance (except for actual
payments of principal) or extend the final maturity date with respect to such
Mortgage Loan, or (ii) be inconsistent with the terms of any applicable Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy, FHA insurance policy, VA guaranty, hazard insurance
policy or federal flood insurance policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Master Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage
Loan that would both constitute a sale or exchange of such Mortgage Loan within
the meaning of Section 1001 of the Code (including any proposed, temporary or
final regulations promulgated thereunder) (other than in connection with a
proposed conveyance or assumption of such Mortgage Loan that is treated as a
Principal Prepayment or in a default situation) and cause the REMIC to fail to
qualify as such under the Code. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to approve
a request from a Mortgagor for a partial release of the related Mortgaged
Property, the granting of an easement thereon in favor of another Person, any
alteration or demolition of the related Mortgaged Property or other similar
matters if it has determined, exercising its good faith business judgment in the
same manner as it would if it were the owner of the related Mortgage Loan, that
the security for, and the timely and full collectability of, such Mortgage Loan
would not be adversely affected thereby and that the Trust Estate would not fail
to continue to qualify as a REMIC under the Code as a result thereof and that no
tax on "prohibited transactions" or "contributions" after the startup day would
be imposed on the REMIC as a result thereof.
The Master Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trust
to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered on behalf of the
Holders of the Regular Certificates and the Class 1-A-R Certificate, and the
Trust or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation,
or of partial or full release, discharge or modification, assignments of
Mortgages and endorsements of Mortgage Notes in connection with refinancings (in
jurisdictions where such assignments are the customary and usual standard of
practice of mortgage lenders) and all other comparable instruments, with respect
to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties. The Master
Servicer is hereby further authorized and empowered by the Trust to execute and
deliver or cause to be executed and delivered on behalf of the Holders of the
Regular Certificates and the Residual Certificate and the Trust, or any of them,
such instruments of assignment or other comparable instruments as the Master
Servicer shall, in its sole judgment, deem appropriate in order to register any
Mortgage Loan on the MERS system or to cause the removal of any Mortgage Loan
from registration thereon. Any expenses incurred in connection with the actions
described in the preceding sentence shall be borne by the Master Servicer with
no right of reimbursement; provided, however, that any such expenses incurred as
a result of any termination by MERS of the MERS system shall be reimbursable to
the Master Servicer. The Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute and
furnish to the Master Servicer, at the Master Servicer's direction, any powers
of attorney and other documents prepared by the Master Servicer and determined
by the Master Servicer to be necessary or appropriate to enable the Master
Servicer to carry out its supervisory, servicing and administrative duties under
this Agreement.
The Master Servicer and each Servicer shall obtain (to the extent
generally commercially available) and maintain fidelity bond and errors and
omissions coverage acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC with respect to their obligations
under this Agreement and the applicable Servicing Contract, respectively. The
Master Servicer or each Servicer, as applicable, shall establish escrow accounts
for, or pay when due (by means of an advance), any tax liens in connection with
the Mortgaged Properties that are not paid by the Mortgagors when due to the
extent that any such payment would not constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance when
made.
In connection with the servicing and administering of each Mortgage
Loan, the Master Servicer and any affiliate of the Master Servicer (i) may
perform services such as appraisals, default management and (in the case of
affiliates only) brokerage services that are not customarily provided by
servicers of mortgage loans, and shall be entitled to reasonable compensation
therefor and (ii) may, at its own discretion and on behalf of the Trust, obtain
credit information in the form of a "credit score" from a credit repository.
Section 3.02 Custodial Accounts and Escrow Accounts. The Master
Servicer shall cause to be established and maintained by each Servicer under the
Master Servicer's supervision the Custodial Accounts and Escrow Accounts and
shall deposit or cause to be deposited therein daily the amounts related to the
Mortgage Loans required by the Servicing Contracts to be so deposited. The
Master Servicer or the Servicer shall deposit in the applicable Escrow Account
on a daily basis all Escrow Payments received by it. Proceeds received with
respect to individual Mortgage Loans from any title, hazard, or FHA insurance
policy, VA guaranty, Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy or other insurance policy
(other than any Special Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy) covering such
Mortgage Loans, if required for the restoration or repair of the related
Mortgaged Property, may be deposited either in the Escrow Account or the
Custodial Account. Such proceeds (other than proceeds from any Special Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy), if not required for the restoration or repair of the
related Mortgaged Property, shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, and
shall be applied to the balances of the related Mortgage Loans as payments of
interest and principal. If the Master Servicer discovers that any Custodial
Account or Escrow Account maintained by a Servicer is not maintained with an
institution meeting the requirements of the first sentence of the definition of
Eligible Institution, then the Master Servicer shall cause such account to be
transferred to an Eligible Institution within two Business Days of such
discovery.
The Master Servicer is hereby authorized to make withdrawals from
and to issue drafts against the Custodial Accounts and the Escrow Accounts for
the purposes required or permitted by this Agreement. Each Custodial Account and
each Escrow Account shall bear a designation clearly showing the respective
interests of the applicable Servicer, as trustee, and of the Master Servicer, in
substantially one of the following forms:
(a) With respect to the Custodial Account: (i) {Servicer's Name}, in
trust for Washington Mutual Mortgage Securities Corp. or (ii) {Servicer's Name},

trust for Washington Mutual Mortgage Securities Corp. or (ii) {Servicer's Name},

Certificate Account of all amounts relating to the Mortgage Loans that have been
collected by any Servicer and are due to the Certificate Account pursuant to
this Agreement.
Funds held in the Custodial Account and the Escrow Account may, at
the Master Servicer's option, be invested in one or more Permitted Investments
which shall in no event mature later than the Business Day prior to the related
Withdrawal Date (except if such Permitted Investments are obligations of or
managed by the Trustee, such Permitted Investments may mature on the Withdrawal
Date). The Master Servicer shall bear any and all losses incurred on any
investments made with such funds and shall be entitled to retain any gains
realized on such investments as additional master servicing compensation.
Section 3.03 Investment Account, Eligible Investments. (a) Not later
than the Withdrawal Date, the Master Servicer shall withdraw or direct the
withdrawal of funds in the Custodial Accounts, for deposit in the Investment

Loans received or advanced by the applicable Servicers which were due on
the related Due Date, net of Servicing Fees due the applicable Servicers;

Mortgage Loans received by the applicable Servicer for such Mortgage Loans
during the applicable Payoff Period, with interest to the date of Payoff

(iii) Curtailments received by the applicable Servicers in the Prior
Period.
At its option, the Master Servicer may invest funds withdrawn from
the Custodial Accounts, as well as any Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation
Proceeds previously received by the Master Servicer (including amounts paid by
the Depositor or the Representing Party in respect of any Purchase Obligation or
their substitution obligations set forth in Sections 2.02 and 2.04 or in
connection with the Master Servicer's right to purchase any Mortgage Loan
pursuant to Section 3.01 or the Master Servicer's exercise of the option to
terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01) for its own account and at
its own risk, during any period prior to their deposit in the Certificate
Account. Such funds, as well as any funds which were withdrawn from the
Custodial Accounts on or before the Withdrawal Date, but not yet deposited into
the Certificate Account, shall immediately be deposited by the Master Servicer
with the Investment Depository in an Investment Account in the name of the
Master Servicer and the Trust for investment only as set forth in this Section
3.03. The Master Servicer shall bear any and all losses incurred on any
investments made with such funds and shall be entitled to retain all gains
realized on such investments as additional servicing compensation. Not later
than the Remittance Date relating to each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer
shall remit such funds (including any losses on funds in the Custodial Account

Servicer to the Trustee.
Section 3.04 Certificate Account. (a) On or prior to the Closing
Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the
Certificateholders, the Certificate Account, which shall be deemed to consist of
two sub-accounts. Promptly after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall communicate

Certificate Account. The Trustee shall, promptly upon receipt, deposit in the
Certificate Account and retain therein the following:
(i) the aggregate amount remitted by the Master Servicer to the
Trustee pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(viii);

deposited into the Investment Account (which may include a deposit of Permitted
Investments) to which the Holders of the Regular Certificates and the Residual

the amounts withdrawn), as follows:
(i) To reimburse itself or the applicable Servicer for Advances made
pursuant to Section 3.19 or a Servicing Contract, as applicable, such
right to reimbursement pursuant to this paragraph (i) being limited to
amounts received on particular Mortgage Loans (including, for this
purpose, Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds) which represent late
recoveries of principal and/or interest respecting which any such Advance
was made;
(ii) To reimburse itself or the applicable Servicer for amounts
expended by or for the account of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section
3.09 or amounts expended by such Servicer pursuant to the Servicing
Contracts in connection with the restoration of property damaged by an
Uninsured Cause or in connection with the liquidation of a Mortgage Loan;
(iii) To pay to itself, with respect to the related Mortgage Loans,
the Master Servicing Fee to which it is entitled to pursuant to Section
3.11 (net of Compensating Interest reduced by Payoff Earnings and Payoff
Interest) as to which no prior withdrawals from funds deposited by the
Master Servicer have been made;
(iv) To reimburse itself or the applicable Servicer for advances
made with respect to related Mortgage Loans (except for Mortgage Loans
purchased pursuant to a Purchase Obligation or pursuant to the second
sentence of the third paragraph of Section 3.01) which the Master Servicer
has determined to be Nonrecoverable Advances, such reimbursement pursuant
to this clause (iv) being made first from amounts received on the Mortgage
Loans in the same Loan Group as the Mortgage Loan in respect of which such
Nonrecoverable Advance was made;
(v) To pay to itself reinvestment earnings deposited or earned in
the Investment Account to which it is entitled;
(vi) To reimburse itself and the Depositor for expenses incurred by
and reimbursable to them pursuant to Section 7.03;
(vii) To deposit to the Investment Account amounts in the
Certificate Account not required to be on deposit therein at the time of
such withdrawal;
(viii) To remit to the Trustee for deposit in the Certificate
Account, not later than the Remittance Date, the amounts in the Investment
Account specified in Section 3.04(b);
(ix) To pay on behalf of the Trustee any Special Primary Insurance
Premium payable by the Trustee; provided, the Master Servicer shall give
written notice thereof to the Trustee prior to noon New York City time two
Business Days prior to the applicable Distribution Date; and after making
or providing for the above withdrawals; and
(x) To clear and terminate the Investment Account and the
Certificate Account following termination of this Agreement pursuant to
Section 10.01.
If the Master Servicer fails to remit the funds described in Section
3.05(a)(viii) above to the Trustee on the Remittance Date (not considering any
cure period afforded to the Master Servicer for such remittance under Section
8.01(a)), the Master Servicer shall pay to the Trustee, for its own account,
interest accrued on such funds at the prime rate as set forth in the Wall Street
Journal from and including the Remittance Date to but excluding the day such
funds are paid to the Trustee.
Since, in connection with withdrawals pursuant to paragraphs (i) and
(ii), the Master Servicer's entitlement thereto is limited to collections or
other recoveries on the related Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer or the
applicable Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting for each
Mortgage Loan, for the purpose of justifying any such withdrawals.
(b) [Reserved];
(c) The Trustee shall be deemed to withdraw funds from the
applicable Certificate Account sub-accounts for distributions to
Certificateholders in the manner specified in this Agreement. In addition, the
Trustee may from time to time make withdrawals from the Certificate Account for
the following purposes:
(i) to pay to itself the Trustee Fee and any other amounts due to
the Trustee under this Agreement (including, but not limited to expenses
and indemnities described in Section 9.11) for the related Distribution
Date;
(ii) to pay to itself as additional compensation earnings on or
investment income with respect to funds in the Certificate Account;
(iii) to withdraw and return to the Master Servicer any amount
deposited in the Certificate Account and not required to be deposited
therein; and
(iv) to clear and terminate the Certificate Account upon termination
of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01.
(d) Each Servicer is authorized to make withdrawals, from time to
time, from the related Custodial Account, (i) to pay to itself, with respect to
the related Mortgage Loans, the Servicing Fee and (ii) to reimburse itself for
expenses to the same extent that the Master Servicer is authorized to make
withdrawals to reimburse the Servicer for expenses pursuant to clauses (i), (ii)
and (iv) of Section 3.05(a), in the case of each of clause (i) and (ii) of this
Section 3.05(d), to the extent no prior withdrawals of such amounts have been
made by the Servicer or the Master Servicer.
Section 3.06 Maintenance of Primary Insurance Policies; Collections
Thereunder. The Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
keep, and to cause the Servicers to keep, in full force and effect each Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy (except any Special Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy)
with respect to a Mortgage Loan with a Loan-to-Value Ratio in excess of 80%,
until no longer required or until no longer permitted under applicable law, and
the Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep in full
force and effect each Special Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if any.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall have no obligation to
maintain any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy for a Mortgage Loan for which the
outstanding Principal Balance thereof at any time subsequent to origination was
80% or less of the Appraised Value of the related Mortgaged Property, unless
required by applicable law.
Unless required by applicable law, the Master Servicer shall not
cancel or refuse to renew, or allow any Servicer under its supervision to cancel
or refuse to renew, any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy in effect at the date
of the initial issuance of the Certificates that is required to be kept in force
hereunder; provided, however, that neither the Master Servicer nor any Servicer
shall advance funds for the payment of any premium due under (i) any Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy (other than a Special Primary Mortgage Insurance
Policy) if it shall determine that such an advance would be a Nonrecoverable
Advance or (ii) any Special Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy.
The Master Servicer agrees to present, or cause to be presented, on
behalf of and for the benefit of the Trust, claims under the Primary Mortgage
Insurance Policy respecting any Mortgage Loan, and in this regard to take such
reasonable actions as shall be necessary to permit recovery under such Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy.
Section 3.07 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance. The Master Servicer
shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan (other than a Cooperative
Loan) fire insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is not less than
the original principal balance of such Mortgage Loan, except in cases approved
by the Master Servicer in which such amount exceeds the value of the
improvements to the Mortgaged Property. The Master Servicer shall also require
fire insurance with extended coverage in a comparable amount on property
acquired upon foreclosure, or deed in lieu of foreclosure, of any Mortgage Loan
(other than a Cooperative Loan). Any amounts collected under any such policies
(other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the related
Mortgaged Property) shall be deposited into the Custodial Account, subject to
withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.03 and Section 3.05. Any unreimbursed costs
incurred in maintaining any insurance described in this Section 3.07 shall be
recoverable as an advance by the Master Servicer from the Investment Account or
the Certificate Account. Such insurance shall be with insurers approved by the
Master Servicer and FNMA or FHLMC. Other additional insurance may be required of
a Mortgagor, in addition to that required pursuant to such applicable laws and
regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such
additional insurance. Where any part of any improvement to the Mortgaged
Property (other than a Mortgaged Property secured by a Cooperative Loan) is
located in a federally designated special flood hazard area and in a community
which participates in the National Flood Insurance Program at the time of
origination of the related Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall cause flood
insurance to be provided. The hazard insurance coverage required by this Section
3.07 may be met with blanket policies providing protection equivalent to
individual policies otherwise required. The Master Servicer shall be responsible
for paying any deductible amount on any such blanket policy. The Master Servicer
agrees to present, or cause to be presented, on behalf of and for the benefit of
the Trust, claims under the hazard insurance policy respecting any Mortgage
Loan, and in this regard to take such reasonable actions as shall be necessary
to permit recovery under such policy.
Section 3.08 Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption
Agreements. When any Mortgaged Property is about to be conveyed by the
Mortgagor, the Master Servicer shall, to the extent it has knowledge of such
prospective conveyance and prior to the time of the consummation of such
conveyance, exercise on behalf of the Trust the Trust's rights to accelerate the
maturity of such Mortgage Loan, to the extent that such acceleration is
permitted by the terms of the related Mortgage Note, under any "due-on-sale"
clause applicable thereto; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not
exercise any such right if the due-on-sale clause, in the reasonable belief of
the Master Servicer, is not enforceable under applicable law or if such exercise
would result in non-coverage of any resulting loss that would otherwise be
covered under any insurance policy. In the event the Master Servicer is
prohibited from exercising such right, the Master Servicer is authorized to take
or enter into an assumption and modification agreement from or with the Person
to whom a Mortgaged 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 state law or unless the Mortgage Note contains a provision
allowing a qualified borrower to assume the Mortgage Note, the Mortgagor remains
liable thereon; provided that the Mortgage Loan shall continue to be covered (if
so covered before the Master Servicer enters such agreement) by any related
Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy. The Master Servicer is also 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 Mortgage Note. The Master
Servicer shall not enter into any substitution or assumption with respect to a
Mortgage Loan if such substitution or assumption shall (i) both constitute a
"significant modification" effecting an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage
Loan under the Code (or Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) and cause
the REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions, (ii) cause
the imposition of any tax on "prohibited transactions" or "contributions" after
the startup day under the REMIC Provisions or (iii) change the applicable
Mortgage Interest Rate. The Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee that any
such substitution or assumption agreement has been completed and shall forward
to the Custodian the original copy of such substitution or assumption agreement
and other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof. In connection
with any such assumption or substitution agreement, the terms of the related
Mortgage Note shall not be changed. Any fee collected by the applicable Servicer
for entering into an assumption or substitution of liability agreement shall be
retained by such Servicer as additional servicing compensation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of
this Agreement, the Master 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 Master
Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever.
Section 3.09 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
The Master Servicer shall foreclose upon or otherwise comparably
convert, or cause to be foreclosed upon or comparably converted, the ownership
of any Mortgaged Property securing a Mortgage Loan which comes into and
continues in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made
for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 3.01. In lieu of such
foreclosure or other conversion, and taking into consideration the desirability
of maximizing net Liquidation Proceeds after taking into account the effect of
Insurance Proceeds upon Liquidation Proceeds, the Master Servicer may, to the
extent consistent with prudent mortgage loan servicing practices, accept a
payment of less than the outstanding Stated Principal Balance of a delinquent
Mortgage Loan in full satisfaction of the indebtedness evidenced by the related
Mortgage Note and release the lien of the related Mortgage upon receipt of such
payment. The Master Servicer shall not foreclose upon or otherwise comparably
convert a Mortgaged Property if the Master Servicer is aware of evidence of
toxic waste, other hazardous substances or other evidence of environmental
contamination thereon and the Master Servicer determines that it would be
imprudent to do so. In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion, the
Master Servicer shall cause to be followed such practices and procedures as it
shall deem necessary or advisable and as shall be normal and usual in general
mortgage servicing activities. The foregoing is subject to the provision that,
in the case of damage to a Mortgaged Property from an Uninsured Cause, the
Master Servicer shall not be required to advance its own funds towards the
restoration of the property unless it shall be determined in the sole judgment
of the Master Servicer, (i) that such restoration will increase the proceeds of
liquidation of the Mortgage Loan to Certificateholders after reimbursement to
itself for such expenses, and (ii) that such expenses will be recoverable to it
through Liquidation Proceeds. The Master Servicer shall be responsible for all
other costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided,
however, that it shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof (as well as its
normal servicing compensation) as an advance. The Master Servicer shall maintain
information required for tax reporting purposes regarding any Mortgaged Property
which is abandoned or which has been foreclosed or otherwise comparably
converted. The Master Servicer shall report such information to the Internal
Revenue Service and the Mortgagor in the manner required by applicable law.
The Master Servicer may enter into one or more special servicing
agreements with a Lowest Class B Owner, subject to each Rating Agency's
acknowledgment that the ratings of the Certificates in effect immediately prior
to entering into such agreement would not be qualified, downgraded or withdrawn
and the Certificates would not be placed on credit review status (except for
possible upgrading) as a result of such agreement. Any such agreement may
contain provisions whereby such Lowest Class B Owner may (a) instruct the Master
Servicer to, or instruct a Servicer to the extent provided in the applicable
Servicing Contract to, commence or delay foreclosure proceedings with respect to
related delinquent Mortgage Loans, provided that the Lowest Class B Owner
deposits a specified amount of cash with the Master Servicer that will be
available for distribution to Certificateholders if Liquidation Proceeds are
less than they otherwise may have been had the Servicer acted pursuant to its
normal servicing procedures, (b) purchase such delinquent Mortgage Loans from
the Trust immediately prior to the commencement of foreclosure proceedings at a
price equal to the aggregate outstanding Stated Principal Balance of such
Mortgage Loans plus accrued interest thereon at the applicable Mortgage Interest
Rate through the last day of the month in which such Mortgage Loans are
purchased and/or (c) assume all of the servicing rights and obligations with
respect to such delinquent Mortgage Loans so long as (i) the Master Servicer has
the right to transfer the servicing rights and obligations of such Mortgage
Loans to another servicer and (ii) such Lowest Class B Owner will service such
Mortgage Loans in accordance with a Servicing Contract. The Trust shall not
acquire any real property (or personal property incident to such real property)
except in connection with a default or imminent default of a Mortgage Loan. In
the event that the Trust acquires any real property (or personal property
incident to such real property) in connection with a default or imminent default
of a Mortgage Loan or any REO Property, such property shall be disposed of by
the Master Servicer as soon as practicable in a manner that, consistent with
prudent mortgage loan servicing practices, maximizes the net present value of
the recovery to the Trust, but in any event within three years after its
acquisition by the Master Servicer for the Trust (such period, the "REO
Disposition Period") unless the Master Servicer provides to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holding by the Trust of such Mortgaged
Property subsequent to three years after its acquisition will not result in the
imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of the Trust as defined in
Section 860F of the Code or under the law of any state in which real property
securing a Mortgage Loan owned by the Trust is located or cause the REMIC to
fail to qualify as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes or for state tax
purposes under the laws of any state in which real property securing a Mortgage
Loan owned by the Trust is located at any time that any Certificates are
outstanding. The Master Servicer shall conserve, protect and operate each such
property for the Certificateholders solely for the purpose of its prompt
disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such property to fail to
qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) or
result in the receipt by the 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.
Pursuant to its efforts to sell such property, the Master Servicer shall either
itself or through an agent selected by the Master Servicer protect and conserve
such property in the same manner and to such extent as is customary in the
locality where such property is located and may, incident to its conservation
and protection of the assets of the Trust, rent the same, or any part thereof,
as the Master Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Master Servicer
and the Trust for the period prior to the sale of such property. Additionally,
the Master Servicer shall perform the tax withholding and shall file information
returns with respect to the receipt of mortgage interests received in a trade or
business, the reports of foreclosures and abandonments of any Mortgaged Property
and the information returns relating to cancellation of indebtedness income with
respect to any Mortgaged Property required by Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P,
respectively, of the Code. Such reports shall be in form and substance
sufficient to meet the reporting requirements imposed by Sections 6050H, 6050J
and 6050P of the Code.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Master
Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable, shall comply with all federal
withholding requirements with respect to payments to Certificateholders of
interest or original issue discount that the Master Servicer or the Trustee
reasonably believes are applicable under the Code. The consent of
Certificateholders shall not be required for any such withholding. Without
limiting the foregoing, the Master Servicer agrees that it will not withhold
with respect to payments of interest or original issue discount in the case of a
Certificateholder that has furnished or caused to be furnished an effective Form
W-8 or an acceptable substitute form or a successor form and who is not a "10
percent shareholder" within the meaning of Code Section 871(h)(3)(B) or a
"controlled foreign corporation" described in Code Section 881(c)(3)(C) with
respect to the Trust or the Depositor. In the event the Trustee withholds any
amount from interest or original issue discount payments or advances thereof to
any Certificateholder pursuant to federal withholding requirements, the Trustee
shall indicate the amount withheld to such Certificateholder.
Section 3.10 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files. Upon
the Payoff or receipt of final payment upon maturity of any Mortgage Loan, the
Master Servicer shall cause such final payment to be immediately deposited in
the related Custodial Account or the Investment Account. The Master Servicer
shall promptly notify the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, thereof by
delivering or causing to be delivered two copies (one of which will be returned
to the Master Servicer with the Mortgage File) of a Request for Release (which
may be delivered in an electronic format acceptable to the Custodian and the
Master Servicer). Upon receipt of such request, the Custodian, on behalf of the
Trustee, shall, not later than the fifth succeeding Business Day, release, or
cause to be released, the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer or the
applicable Servicer indicated in such Request for Release. With any such Payoff
or other final payment, the Master Servicer is authorized (i) to prepare for and
procure from the trustee or mortgagee under the Mortgage which secured the
Mortgage Note a deed of full reconveyance or other form of satisfaction or
assignment of Mortgage and endorsement of Mortgage Note in connection with a
refinancing covering the Mortgaged Property, which satisfaction, endorsed
Mortgage Note or assigning document shall be delivered by the Master Servicer to
the person or persons entitled thereto, and (ii) if the Mortgage has been
recorded in the name of MERS or its designee, to cause the removal of such
Mortgage Loan from registration on the MERS system. No expenses incurred in
connection with such satisfaction or assignment shall be payable to the Master
Servicer by the Trustee or from the Certificate Account, the related Investment
Account or the related Custodial Account. From time to time as appropriate for
the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose,
collection under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, the Custodian, on behalf
of the Trustee, shall, upon request of the Master Servicer and delivery to it of
a Request for Release signed by a Master Servicing Officer, release not later
than the fifth Business Day following the date of receipt of such Request for
Release the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer or the related Servicer
as indicated by the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall execute such documents
provided to it as shall be necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings.
Such trust receipt shall obligate the Master Servicer to return the Mortgage
File to the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, when the need therefor by the
Master Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan shall be liquidated,
in which case, upon receipt of a Request for Release signed by a Master
Servicing Officer, the trust receipt shall be released by the Custodian to the
Master Servicer.
Section 3.11 Compensation to the Master Servicer and the Servicers.
As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Master Servicer
shall be entitled to receive from the Investment Account or the Certificate
Account the Master Servicing Fee payable in accordance with Section
3.05(a)(iii). The Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred
by it in connection with its activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to
reimbursement therefor, except as specifically provided herein.
As compensation for its activities under the applicable Servicing
Contract, the applicable Servicer shall be entitled to withhold or withdraw from
the related Custodial Account the amounts provided for in such Servicing
Contract to the extent not inconsistent with this Agreement (including Section
3.05(d)). Each Servicer is required to pay all expenses incurred by it in
connection with its servicing activities under its Servicing Contract (including
payment of premiums for Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies, other than Special
Primary Insurance Policies, if required) and shall not be entitled to
reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided in such Servicing
Contract and not inconsistent with this Agreement.
Section 3.12 Reports to the Trustee; Certificate Account Statement.
Not later than 15 days after each Distribution Date, the Master
Servicer shall, upon request by the Trustee, forward a statement, certified by a
Master Servicing Officer, to the Trustee setting forth the status of the
Certificate Account as of the close of business on such Distribution Date and
showing, for the period covered by such statement, the aggregate of deposits
into and withdrawals from the Certificate Account for each category of deposit
specified in Section 3.04 and each category of withdrawal specified in Section
3.05, and stating that all distributions required by this Agreement have been
made (or if any required distribution has not been made, specifying the nature
and amount thereof). The Trustee shall make available such statements to any
Certificateholder upon request at the expense of the Master Servicer.
Section 3.13 Annual Statement as to Compliance. The Master Servicer
shall deliver to the Trustee and the Rating Agencies, on or before the 15th day
(or if not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) preceding the
latest day in each year on which an annual report on Form 10-K may be timely
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (without regard to any
extension), an Officer's Certificate stating as to the signer thereof, that (i)
a review of the activities of the Master Servicer during the preceding calendar
year and performance under this Agreement has been made under such officer's
supervision, and (ii) to the best of such officer's knowledge, based on such
review, the Master Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this
Agreement throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the
fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such
officer and the nature and status thereof. Copies of such statement shall be
provided by the Master Servicer to Certificateholders upon request or by the
Trustee (solely to the extent that such copies are available to the Trustee) at
the expense of the Master Servicer, should the Master Servicer fail to so
provide such copies.
Section 3.14 Access to Certain Documentation and Information
Regarding the Mortgage Loans. In the event that the Certificates are legal for
investment by federally-insured savings associations, the Master Servicer shall
provide to the OTS, the FDIC and the supervisory agents and examiners of the OTS
and the FDIC access to the documentation regarding the related Mortgage Loans
required by applicable regulations of the OTS or the FDIC, as applicable, and
shall in any event provide such access to the documentation regarding such
Mortgage Loans to the Trustee and its representatives, such access being
afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during normal
business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer designated by it.
Section 3.15 Annual Independent Public Accountants' Servicing
Report. Commencing in the calendar year following the date of this Agreement, on
or before the 15th day (or if not a Business Day, the immediately preceding
Business Day) preceding the latest day in each year on which an annual report on
Form 10-K may be timely filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(without regard to any extension), the Master Servicer, at its expense, shall
cause a firm of independent public accountants which is a member of the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants to furnish a statement to the Trustee
to the effect that such firm has with respect to the Master Servicer's overall
master servicing operations, examined such operations in accordance with the
requirements of the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers
applicable to master servicers, stating such firm's conclusions relating
thereto.
Section 3.16 Assumption or Termination of Servicing Contracts by
Trustee. In the event the Master Servicer, or any successor Master Servicer,
shall for any reason no longer be the Master Servicer (including by reason of an
Event of Default), the Trustee as trustee hereunder, shall, within 90 days of
such time, assume, or shall appoint a successor Master Servicer to assume, all
of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under the Servicing
Contracts with respect to the related Mortgage Loans, unless the Trustee elects
to terminate the Servicing Contracts with respect to such Mortgage Loans in
accordance with the terms thereof. Unless the Trustee so elects to terminate the
Servicing Contracts, the Trustee, its designee or the successor servicer for the
Trustee shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Master Servicer's interest
therein with respect to the related Mortgage Loans and to have replaced the
Master Servicer as a party to the Servicing Contracts to the same extent as if
the rights and duties under the Servicing Contracts relating to such Mortgage
Loans had been assigned to the assuming party, except that the Master Servicer
shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under the
Servicing Contracts with respect to the Master Servicer's duties to be performed
prior to its termination hereunder.
In addition, with respect to the Mortgage Loans for which the Master
Servicer has not entered into a Servicing Contract, if the Master Servicer shall
for any reason no longer be the Master Servicer, the Trustee as trustee
hereunder shall assume, within 90 days of such time, or shall appoint a
successor Servicer to assume, all of the rights and obligations of the Master
Servicer as Servicer with respect to such Mortgage Loans.
The Master Servicer at its expense shall, upon request of the
Trustee, deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to the
Servicing Contracts and the Mortgage Loans then being master serviced and
serviced by the Master Servicer and an accounting of amounts collected and held
by the Master Servicer, and shall transfer control of the Custodial Accounts,
Escrow Accounts and Investment Account to the successor Master Servicer, and
otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of
the rights and duties under the related Servicing Contracts relating to such
Mortgage Loans to the assuming party. The Trustee shall be entitled to be
reimbursed from the predecessor Master Servicer (or the Trust if the predecessor
Master Servicer is unable to fulfill such obligations) for all Master Servicing
Transfer Costs.
Section 3.17 Rights of the Depositor and the Trustee in Respect of
the Master Servicer.
The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations
of the Master Servicer hereunder and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or
cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master Servicer
hereunder and in connection with any such defaulted obligation, to exercise the
related rights of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided that the Master
Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder by virtue of
such performance by the Depositor or its designee. Neither the Trustee nor the
Depositor shall have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure
to act by the Master Servicer nor shall the Trustee or the Depositor be
obligated to supervise the performance of the Master Servicer hereunder or
otherwise.
Section 3.18 Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of the
Master Servicer to be Held for the Trustee.
The Master Servicer shall transmit to the Custodian, on behalf of
the Trustee, as required by this Agreement all documents and instruments in
respect of a Mortgage Loan coming into the possession of the Master Servicer or
Servicer from time to time and shall account fully to the Trustee for any funds
received by the Master Servicer or Servicer or which otherwise are collected by
the Master Servicer or Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in
respect of any Mortgage Loan. The documents constituting the Servicing File
shall be held by the Master Servicer or Servicer as custodian and bailee for the
Trustee. All Mortgage Files and, to the extent not constituting compensation
payable to the Master Servicer or Servicer, funds collected or held by, or under
the control of, the Master Servicer or Servicer in respect of any Mortgage
Loans, whether from the collection of principal and interest payments or from
Liquidation Proceeds, including but not limited to, any funds on deposit in the
Investment Account or Custodial Account, shall be held by the Master Servicer or
Servicer for and on behalf of the Trustee and shall be and remain the sole and
exclusive property of the Trustee, subject to the applicable provisions of this
Agreement. The Master Servicer also agrees that it shall not, and shall insure
that the Servicer shall not, knowingly create, incur or subject any Mortgage
File or any funds that are deposited in the Investment Account, Custodial
Account, Certificate Account or any Escrow Account, or any funds that otherwise
are or may become due or payable to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, to any claim, lien, security interest, judgment, levy, writ
of attachment or other encumbrance created by the Master Servicer or Servicer,
or assert by legal action or otherwise any claim or right of setoff against any
Mortgage File or any funds collected on, or in connection with, a Mortgage Loan,
except, however, that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to set off against
and deduct from any such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to
the Master Servicer under this Agreement.
Section 3.19 Advances; Distribution Reports to the Trustee.
(a) To the extent described below, the Master Servicer is obligated
to advance its own funds and remit such Advance to the Certificate Account to
cover any shortfall between (i) payments scheduled to be received in respect of
Mortgage Loans (without giving effect to any Debt Service Reduction being
contested by the Master Servicer or a Servicer), and (ii) the amounts actually
deposited in the Certificate Account on account of such payments. The Master
Servicer's obligation to make any advance or advances described in this Section
3.19 is effective only to the extent that such advance is, in the good faith
judgment of the Master Servicer made on or before the second Business Day prior
to each Distribution Date, reimbursable from Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation
Proceeds of the related Mortgage Loans or recoverable as late Monthly Payments
with respect to the related Mortgage Loans or otherwise. The Master Servicer's
obligation to make an Advance with respect to any Mortgage Loan shall continue
until the ultimate disposition of the REO Property or Mortgaged Property
relating to such Mortgage Loan.
Prior to the close of business on the second Business Day prior to
each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall determine whether or not it
will make an Advance on the Business Day prior to such Distribution Date (in the
event that the applicable Servicer fails to make such advances) and shall
furnish a written statement to the Trustee, the Paying Agent, if any, and to any
Certificateholder requesting the same, setting forth the aggregate amount to be
advanced on account of principal and interest in respect of the Mortgage Loans,
stated separately.
In the event that the Master Servicer shall be required to make an
Advance, it shall on the Master Servicer Advance Date relating to each
Distribution Date either (i) remit to the Trustee for deposit in the Certificate
Account an amount equal to such Advance, (ii) make an appropriate entry in the
records of the Investment Account that funds in such account that are Amounts
Held for Future Distribution have been, as permitted by this Section 3.19, used
by the Master Servicer to make such Advance, or (iii) make advances in the form
of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the amount of such Advance. Any
Amounts Held for Future Distribution shall be replaced by the Master Servicer by
deposit in the Investment Account on the Remittance Date relating to any future
Distribution Date to the extent that funds in the Investment Account on such
Distribution Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be less than the
amounts required to be remitted to the Certificate Account on such Remittance
Date. Under each Servicing Contract, the Master Servicer is entitled to receive
from the Custodial Accounts established by the Servicers amounts received by the
applicable Servicers on particular Mortgage Loans as late payments of principal
and interest or as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds and respecting
which the Master Servicer has made an unreimbursed advance of principal and
interest. The Master Servicer is also entitled to receive other amounts from the
related Custodial Accounts established by the Servicers to reimburse itself for
prior Nonrecoverable Advances respecting Mortgage Loans serviced by such
Servicers. The Master Servicer shall deposit these amounts in the Investment
Account prior to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.05.
In accordance with Section 3.05, Advances are reimbursable to the
Master Servicer from cash in the Investment Account or the Certificate Account
to the extent that the Master Servicer shall determine that any such Advances
previously made are Nonrecoverable Advances pursuant to Section 3.19(b).
(b) Any advance previously made by the Master Servicer or by a
Servicer pursuant to its Servicing Contract with respect to a Mortgage Loan that
the Master Servicer shall determine in its good faith judgment not to be
ultimately recoverable from Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds or
otherwise with respect to such Mortgage Loan or recoverable as late Monthly
Payments with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall be a "Nonrecoverable Advance".
The determination by the Master Servicer that it or the applicable Servicer has
made a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any advance would constitute a
Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be evidenced by an Officer's Certificate of the
Master Servicer delivered to the Trustee on the Determination Date and detailing
the reasons for such determination. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, any insurance policy relating to the Mortgage Loans, or any other
agreement relating to the Mortgage Loans to which the Depositor or the Master
Servicer is a party, (i) the Master Servicer and each Servicer shall not be
obligated to, and shall not, make any advance that, after reasonable inquiry and
in its sole discretion, the Master Servicer or such Servicer shall determine
would be a Nonrecoverable Advance, and (ii) the Master Servicer and each
Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for any advance as provided in
Section 3.05(a)(i), (ii) and (iv) of this Agreement.
Section 3.20 Reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
(a) The Trustee and the Master Servicer shall reasonably cooperate
with the Depositor in connection with the Trust's satisfying its 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
(each, a "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 and file (via the Securities
and Exchange Commission's Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System) such
Forms (other than any Annual Report on Form 10-K, which shall be signed by the
Depositor) on behalf of the Trust. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the
Depositor shall file the Monthly Form 8-K in connection with the filing of this
Agreement.
(b) Each Monthly Form 8-K shall be filed by the Trustee within 15
days after each Distribution Date, including a copy of the monthly statement to
Certificateholders delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(b) (each, a "Distribution
Date Statement") 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)
commencing in the calendar year following the date of this Agreement, 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 Master Servicer's annual statement of
compliance described under Section 3.13 and the accountant's report described
under Section 3.15, 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 including such documents as exhibits reasonably promptly after
they are delivered to the Trustee. The Trustee shall have no liability with
respect to any failure to properly prepare or file such periodic reports
resulting from or relating to the Trustee's inability or failure to obtain any
information not resulting from its own negligence, willful misconduct or bad
faith. The Form 10-K shall also include a certification in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit O (the "Certification"), which shall be signed by a senior
officer of the Depositor in charge of securitization. The Depositor shall
deliver the Certification to the Trustee three (3) Business Days prior to the
latest date on which the Form 10-K may be timely filed. The Trustee, the
Depositor and the Master Servicer shall reasonably cooperate to enable the
Securities and Exchange Commission requirements with respect to the Trust to be
met in the event that the Securities and Exchange Commission issues additional
interpretive guidelines or promulgates rules or regulations, or in the event of
any other change of law that would require reporting arrangements or the
allocation of responsibilities with respect thereto, as described in this
Section 3.20, to be conducted or allocated in a different manner.
(c) Prior to the latest date on which the Form 10-K may be timely
filed each year, the Trustee shall sign and deliver to the Depositor a
certification (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit P) for the benefit of the
Depositor 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). In addition, the Trustee shall indemnify and
hold harmless the Depositor, each person, if any, who "controls" the Depositor
within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and their
respective officers, directors, agents and affiliates (collectively, the
"Depositor Indemnified Parties") 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 or based upon any
inaccuracy in the certification provided by the Trustee pursuant to this Section
3.20(c), any breach by the Trustee or any of its officers, directors, agents or
affiliates of its obligations under this Section 3.20(c) or any material
misstatements or omission contained in the certification delivered pursuant to
this Section 3.20(c) or the Trustee's negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct in connection therewith. If the indemnification provided for herein
is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Depositor Indemnified
Parties, then the Trustee agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or
payable by such Depositor Indemnified Parties as a result of the losses, claims,
damages or liabilities of such Depositor Indemnified Parties in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such Depositor Indemnified
Parties on the one hand and the Trustee on the other in connection with a breach
of the Trustee's obligations under this Section 3.20(c), any material
misstatement or omission contained in the certification delivered pursuant to
this Section 3.20(c) or the Trustee's negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct in connection therewith. The Master Servicer hereby acknowledges and
agrees that the Depositor and the Trustee are relying on the Master Servicer's
performance of its obligations under Sections 3.13 and 3.15 in order to perform
their respective obligations under this Section 3.20.
(d) Prior to the latest date on which the Form 10-K may be timely
filed each year, the Master Servicer shall sign and deliver to the Depositor a
certification (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit Q) for the benefit of the
Depositor and its officers, directors and affiliates. In addition, the Master
Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor Indemnified Parties
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 or based upon any inaccuracy in the certification
provided by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.20(d), any breach by
the Master Servicer or any of its officers, directors, agents or affiliates of
its obligations under this Section 3.20(d) or any material misstatement or
omission contained in the certification delivered pursuant to this Section
3.20(d) or the Master Servicer's negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in
connection therewith. If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable
or insufficient to hold harmless the Depositor Indemnified Parties, then the
Master Servicer agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by
such Depositor Indemnified Parties as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities of such Depositor Indemnified Parties in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such Depositor Indemnified Parties
on the one hand and the Master Servicer on the other in connection with a breach
of the Master Servicer's obligations under this Section 3.20(d), any material
misstatement or omission contained in the certificate delivered pursuant to
3.20(d) or the Master Servicer's negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in
connection therewith.
(e) Upon any filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the
Trustee shall promptly deliver to the Depositor a copy of any such executed
report, statement or information.
(f) Prior to the latest date on which the Form 10-K may be timely
filed each year, the Master Servicer shall take all commercially reasonable
efforts to enforce the obligation of each Servicer, if applicable, to provide
the certification required pursuant to each respective Servicing Contract.
(g) The obligations set forth in paragraphs (a) through (f) of this
Section shall only apply with respect to periods for which the Trustee is
obligated to file reports on Form 8-K or 10-K pursuant to paragraph (b) of this
Section. As soon as permitted under applicable law, unless otherwise instructed
by the Depositor, the Trustee shall prepare, execute and file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission a Form 15 Suspension Notification with
respect to the Trust, and thereafter there shall be no further obligations under
paragraphs (a) through (e) of this Section commencing with the fiscal year in
which the Form 15 is filed (other than the obligations to be performed in such
fiscal year that relate back to the prior fiscal year).

"Interest Distribution Amount" after its Class Certificate Balance or Notional
Amount has been reduced to zero.
For any Group and on any Distribution Date, amounts distributed in
respect of the Class PO Deferred Amounts (including the distribution of the PO

On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute any
Reimbursement Amount sequentially to the Classes of Certificates then

(ii) With respect to the Group 2 Senior Certificates:
On each Distribution Date prior to the Senior Credit Support
Depletion Date for Group 2, the amount distributable to the Group 2 Senior
Certificates pursuant to Section 5.02(a)(ii) for such Distribution Date, will be
distributed, concurrently, to the Class 2-A-1 and Class 2-A-2 Certificates, pro
rata, until their Class Certificate Balances have been reduced to zero.
On each Distribution Date on or after the Senior Credit Support
Depletion Date for a Group, notwithstanding the allocation and priority set
forth above, the portion of the Pool Distribution Amount with respect to a Loan
Group available to be distributed as principal of the Senior Certificates of the
Related Group (other than the Class 15-PO Certificates) shall be distributed
concurrently, as principal, on such Classes, pro rata, on the basis of their
respective Class Certificate Balances, until the Class Certificate Balances
thereof are reduced to zero.
The Class 30-IO and Class 15-IO Certificates are Interest-Only
Certificates and are not entitled to distributions in respect of principal.
(c) On each Distribution Date, Accrued Certificate Interest for each
Class of Group 1 Senior Certificates (other than the Class 1-X-PO Component) and
Class 30-B Certificates for such Distribution Date shall be reduced by such
Class' pro rata share, based on such Class' Interest Distribution Amount for
such Distribution Date, without taking into account the allocation made by this
Section 5.02(c), of (A) Non-Supported Interest Shortfalls for Loan Group 1, (B)
on and after the applicable Senior Credit Support Depletion Date, any other
Realized Loss on the Mortgage Loans in the Related Loan Group allocable to
interest, and (C) Relief Act Reductions incurred on the Mortgage Loans in such
Loan Groups during the calendar month preceding the month of such Distribution
Date and (D) Curtailment Shortfalls.
On each Distribution Date, Accrued Certificate Interest for each
Class of Group 2 Senior Certificates (other than the Class 2-X-PO Component and
Class 15-PO Certificates) and Class 15-B Certificates for such Distribution Date
shall be reduced by such Class' pro rata share, based on such Class' Interest
Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date, without taking into account the
allocation made by this Section 5.02(c), of (A) Non-Supported Interest
Shortfalls for Loan Group 2, (B) on and after the applicable Senior Credit
Support Depletion Date, any other Realized Loss on the Mortgage Loans in the
Related Loan Group allocable to interest, and (C) Relief Act Reductions incurred
on the Mortgage Loans in such Loan Groups during the calendar month preceding
the month of such Distribution Date and (D) Curtailment Shortfalls.
(d) Notwithstanding the priority and allocation contained in Section
5.02(a)(iv), if with respect to any Class of Class 30-B or Class 15-B
Certificates on any Distribution Date, (i) the aggregate of the Class
Certificate Balances immediately prior to such Distribution Date of all Classes
of Class 30-B Certificates or Class 15-B, as the case may be, which have a
higher numerical Class designation than such Class, divided by (ii) the
aggregate Pool Stated Principal Balance (Non-PO Portion) of the Related Loan
Group immediately prior to such Distribution Date (for each Group, the
"Fractional Interest") is less than the Original Fractional Interest for such
Class, no distribution of principal will be made to any Classes of Class 30-B or
Class 15-B Certificates junior to such Class (the "Restricted Classes") and the
Class Certificate Balances of the Restricted Classes of Class 30-B or Class 15-B
Certificates will not be used in determining the Pro Rata Share for the Class
30-B or Class 15-B Certificates that are not Restricted Classes. If the
aggregate Class Certificate Balances of the Class 30-B or Class 15-B
Certificates that are not Restricted Classes are reduced to zero,
notwithstanding the previous sentence, any funds remaining will be distributed
sequentially to the Class 30-B or Class 15-B Certificates that are Restricted
Classes of such Related Group in order of their respective numerical Class
designations (beginning with the Class of Class 30-B or Class 15-B Certificates
that is a Restricted Class then outstanding with the lowest numerical Class
designation).
Section 5.03 Allocation of Losses.
(a) No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the related
Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall inform the Trustee in writing with
respect to each Mortgage Loan: (1) whether any Realized Loss is a Deficient
Valuation or a Debt Service Reduction, (2) of the amount of such loss or
Deficient Valuation, or of the terms of such Debt Service Reduction and (3) of
the total amount of Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans in each Loan Group.
Based on such information, the Trustee shall determine the total amount of
Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans in each Loan Group with respect to the
related Distribution Date. Realized Losses shall be allocated to the
Certificates by a reduction in the Class Certificate Balances of the designated
Classes pursuant to the operation of Section 5.03(b).
(b) The Component Balance of the Class 1-X-PO Component shall be
reduced on each Distribution Date by the amount, if any, by which the Component
Balance of such Class 1-X-PO Component (after giving effect to the amount to be
distributed as a distribution of principal on such Distribution Date) exceeds
the Adjusted Pool Amount (PO Portion) for Loan Group 1 for such Distribution
Date. The Component Balance of the Class 2-X-PO Component and the Class
Certificate Balance of the Class 15-PO Certificates shall be reduced on each
Distribution Date by the amount, if any, by which the sum of such Component
Balance and Class Certificate Balance (after giving effect to the amounts to be
distributed as a distribution of principal on such Distribution Date) exceeds
the Adjusted Pool Amount (PO Portion) for Loan Group 2 for such Distribution
Date. Any such reduction shall be allocated between the Class 2-X-PO Component
and the Class 15-PO Certificates based on the Component Balance of the Class
2-X-PO Component and the Class Certificate Balance of the Class 15-PO
Certificates.
The Class Certificate Balance of the Class of Class 30-B
Certificates then outstanding with the highest numerical Class designation shall
be reduced or increased on each Distribution Date by the amount, if any,
necessary such that the aggregate of the Class Certificate Balances of all
outstanding Classes of Group 1 Senior Certificates and Class 30-B Certificates
(but not the Component Balance of the Class 1-X-PO Component) (after giving
effect to the amount to be distributed as a distribution of principal and the
allocation of the Class PO Deferred Amounts on such Distribution Date) exceeds
the Adjusted Pool Amount (Non-PO Portion) for Loan Group 1 for such Distribution
Date.
The Class Certificate Balance of the Class of Class 15-B
Certificates then outstanding with the highest numerical Class designation shall
be reduced or increased on each Distribution Date by the amount, if any,
necessary such that the aggregate of the Class Certificate Balances of all
outstanding Classes of Group 2 Senior Certificates (other than the Class 15-PO
Certificates) and Class 15-B Certificates (but not the Component Balance of the
Class 2-X-PO Component) (after giving effect to the amount to be distributed as
a distribution of principal and the allocation of the Class PO Deferred Amounts
on such Distribution Date) exceeds the Adjusted Pool Amount (Non-PO Portion) for
Loan Group 2 for such Distribution Date.
After the applicable Senior Credit Support Depletion Date, the Class
Certificate Balances of the Senior Certificates of each Group in the aggregate
shall be reduced or increased on each Distribution Date by the amount, if any,
necessary such that the aggregate of the Class Certificate Balances of all
outstanding Classes of Senior Certificates of such Group (after giving effect to
the amount to be distributed as a distribution of principal on such Distribution
Date) equals the Adjusted Pool Amount (Non-PO Portion) for the Related Loan
Group for such Distribution Date.
Any such reduction or increase shall be allocated among the Senior
Certificates of such Group based on the Class Certificate Balances immediately
prior to such Distribution Date until the Class Certificate Balances thereof
have been reduced to zero.
(c) Any reduction or increase in the Class Certificate Balance of a
Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 5.03(b) above shall be allocated among
the Certificates of such Class in proportion to their respective Percentage
Interests.
(d) The calculation of the amount to be distributed as principal to
any Class of Class 30-B Certificates or Class 15-B Certificates with respect to
a Distribution Date (the "Calculated Principal Distribution") shall be made
prior to the allocation of any Realized Losses for such Distribution Date;
provided, however, the actual payment of principal to the Classes of Class 30-B
Certificates or Class 15-B Certificates shall be made subsequent to the
allocation of Realized Losses for such Distribution Date. In the event that
after the allocation of Realized Losses for a Distribution Date, the Calculated
Principal Distribution for a Class of Class 30-B Certificates or Class 15-B
Certificates is greater than the Class Certificate Balance of such Class, the
excess shall be distributed first, sequentially, to the Class 30-B Certificates
or Class 15-B Certificates, as the case may be, then outstanding (beginning with
the Class of Class 30-B Certificates or Class 15-B Certificates, as the case may
be, then outstanding with the lowest numerical designation) until the respective
Class Certificate Balance of each such Class is reduced to zero and then to the
Group 1 Senior Certificates, in the case of Class 30-B Certificates, pro rata,
in accordance with the priories set forth in Section 5.02, or, the Group 2
Senior Certificates, in the case of Class 15-B Certificates, pro rata, in
accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 5.02.
(e) After the Senior Credit Support Depletion Date for Group 1, on
any Distribution Date on which the Class 1-A-11 Loss Allocation Amount is
greater than zero, the Class Certificate Balance of the Class 1-A-11
Certificates will be reduced by the Class 1-A-11 Loss Allocation Amount and,
notwithstanding Section 5.03(b), the Class Certificate Balance of the Class
1-A-1, Class 1-A-2, Class 1-A-3, Class 1-A-4, Class 1-A-5, Class 1-A-6, Class
1-A-7, Class 1-A-8, Class 1-A-9 or Class 1-A-10 Certificates, as applicable,
will not be reduced by the Class 1-A-11 Loss Allocation Amount.
Any increase in the Class Certificate Balance allocated to the Class
1-A-1, Class 1-A-2, Class 1-A-3, Class 1-A-4, Class 1-A-5, Class 1-A-6, Class
1-A-7, Class 1-A-8, Class 1-A-9 or Class 1-A-10 Certificates pursuant to Section
5.03(b) will instead increase the Class Certificate Balance of the Class 1-A-11
Certificates.
(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.03, no
Class Certificate Balance of a Class will be increased on any Distribution Date
such that the Class Certificate Balance of such Class exceeds its Initial Class
Certificate Balance less all distributions of principal previously distributed
in respect of such Class on prior Distribution Dates (excluding in the case of
any Class of Class B Certificates any principal otherwise payable to such Class
of Class 30-B or Class 15-B Certificates but used to pay any Class PO Deferred
Amount).
Section 5.04 Statements to Certificateholders.
(a) Prior to the Distribution Date in each month, based solely upon

(b) In the case of information furnished pursuant to clauses (i),
(ii) and (x) of Section 5.04(a), the amounts shall be expressed as a dollar
amount per Certificate with a $1,000 denomination.
On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall make available to each
Financial Market Service, in electronic or such other format and media mutually
agreed upon by the Trustee, the Financial Market Service and the Depositor, the
information contained in the statement described in Section 5.04(a) for such
Distribution Date.
No later than each Distribution Date, the Trustee, based upon
information supplied to it on the Master Servicer's Certificate, shall make
available to each Holder of a Certificate, each Rating Agency, the Depositor and
the Master Servicer such statement setting forth the information set forth in
Section 5.04(a). The Trustee will make the monthly statement to
Certificateholders (and, at its option, any additional files containing the same
information in an alternative format) available each month to
Certificateholders, and other parties to this Agreement via the Trustee's
Internet website. The Trustee's Internet website shall initially be located at
"xxx.xxxxxxx.xxx." Assistance in using the website can be obtained by calling
the Trustee's customer service desk at (000) 000-0000. Parties that are unable
to use the website are entitled to have a paper copy mailed to them via first
class mail by calling the customer service desk and indicating such. The Trustee
shall have the right to change the way the monthly statements to
Certificateholders are distributed in order to make such distribution more
convenient and/or more accessible to the above parties and the Trustee shall
provide timely and adequate notification to all above parties regarding any such
changes.
Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar
year, the Trustee shall furnish to each Person who at any time during the
calendar year was the Holder of a Certificate, if requested in writing by such
Person, a statement containing the information set forth in clauses (i) and (ii)
of Section 5.04(a), in each case aggregated for such calendar year or applicable
portion thereof during which such Person was a Certificateholder. Such
obligation of the Trustee shall be deemed to have been satisfied to the extent
that substantially comparable information shall be provided by the Trustee
pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from time to time in force.
The Trustee shall deliver to the Holders of Certificates any reports
or information the Trustee is required by this Agreement or the Code, Treasury
Regulations or REMIC Provisions to deliver to the Holders of Certificates, and
the Trustee shall prepare and provide to the Certificateholders (by mail,
telephone, or publication as may be permitted by applicable Treasury
Regulations) such other reasonable information as the Trustee deems necessary or
appropriate or is required by the Code, Treasury Regulations, and the REMIC
Provisions including, but not limited to, (i) information to be reported to the
Holder of the Residual Certificate for quarterly notices on Schedule Q (Form
1066) (which information shall be forwarded to the Holder of the Residual
Certificate by the Trustee), (ii) information to be provided to the Holders of
Certificates with respect to amounts which should be included as interest and
original issue discount in such Holders' gross income and (iii) information to
be provided to all Holders of Certificates setting forth the percentage of the
REMIC's assets, determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations using a
convention, not inconsistent with Treasury Regulations, selected by the Trustee
in its absolute discretion, that constitute real estate assets under Section 856
of the Code, and assets described in Section 7701(a)(19)(C) of the Code;
provided, however, that in setting forth the percentage of such assets of the
REMIC, nothing contained in this Agreement, including without limitation Section
7.03 hereof, shall be interpreted to require the Trustee periodically to
appraise the fair market values of the assets of the Trust Estate or to
indemnify the Trust Estate or any Certificateholders from any adverse federal,
state or local tax consequences associated with a change subsequently required
to be made in the Depositor's initial good faith determinations of such fair
market values (if subsequent determinations are required pursuant to the REMIC
Provisions) made from time to time.
Section 5.05 Tax Returns and Reports to Certificateholders.
(a) For federal income tax purposes, the REMIC shall have a calendar
year taxable year and shall maintain its books on the accrual method of
accounting.
(b) The Trustee shall prepare or cause to be prepared, shall execute
and shall file or cause to be filed with the Internal Revenue Service and
applicable state or local tax authorities income tax information returns for
each taxable year with respect to the REMIC containing such information at the
times and in the manner as may be required by the Code, the Treasury Regulations
or state or local tax laws, regulations, or rules, and shall furnish or cause to
be furnished to the Certificateholders, the schedules, statements or information
at such times and in such manner as may be required thereby. Within 30 days of
the Closing Date, the Trustee shall obtain a taxpayer identification number on
Form SS-4 or as otherwise permitted by the Internal Revenue Service, and shall
furnish or cause to be furnished to the Internal Revenue Service, on Form 8811
or as otherwise required by the Code or the Treasury Regulations, the name,
title, address and telephone number of the person that Holders of the
Certificates may contact for tax information relating thereto, together with
such additional information at the time or times and in the manner required by
the Code or the Treasury Regulations. Such federal, state, or local income tax
or information returns shall be signed by the Trustee, or such other Person as
may be required to sign such returns by the Code, the Treasury Regulations or
state or local tax laws, regulations, or rules.
(c) In the first federal income tax return of the REMIC for its
short taxable year ending December 31, 2004, REMIC status shall be elected for
such taxable year and all succeeding taxable years.
(d) The Trustee will maintain or cause to be maintained such records
relating to the REMIC, including but not limited to records relating to the
income, expenses, assets and liabilities of the Trust Estate, and the initial
fair market value and adjusted basis of the Trust Estate property and assets
determined at such intervals as may be required by the Code or the Treasury
Regulations, as may be necessary to prepare the foregoing returns, schedules,
statements or information.
Section 5.06 Tax Matters Person. A Tax Matters Person shall have the
same duties with respect to the REMIC as those of a "tax matters partner" under
Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of Subtitle F of the Code. The Holder of the Class
1-A-R Certificate is hereby designated as the Tax Matters Person for the REMIC.
By its acceptance of the Class 1-A-R Certificate, such Holder irrevocably
appoints the Trustee as its agent to perform all of the duties of the Tax
Matters Person for the REMIC.
Section 5.07 Rights of a Tax Matters Person in Respect of the
Trustee. The Trustee shall afford the Tax Matters Person, 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. Upon request, the Trustee shall furnish
the Tax Matters Person with its most recent report of condition published
pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervisory or examining authority
publicly available. The Trustee shall make available to the Tax Matters Person
such books, documents or records relating to the Trustee's services hereunder as
the Tax Matters Person shall reasonably request. The Tax Matters Person shall
not have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the
Trustee and is not obligated to supervise the performance of the Trustee under
this Agreement or otherwise.
Section 5.08 REMIC Related Covenants. For as long as the Trust shall
exist, the Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer shall act in
accordance herewith to assure continuing treatment of the Trust Estate as a
REMIC and avoid the imposition of tax on the REMIC. In particular:
(a) The Trustee shall not create, or permit the creation of, any
"interests" in the REMIC within the meaning of Code Section 860D(a)(2) other
than the interests represented by the Regular Certificates, the Components and
the Residual Certificate.
(b) Except as otherwise provided in the Code, (i) the Depositor and
the Master Servicer shall not contribute to the Trust Estate and the Trustee
shall not accept property unless substantially all of the property held in the
REMIC constitutes either "qualified mortgages" or "permitted investments" as
defined in Code Sections 860G(a)(3) and (5), respectively, and (ii) no property
shall be contributed to the REMIC after the start-up day unless such
contribution would not subject the Trust Estate to the 100% tax on contributions
to a REMIC after the start-up day of the REMIC imposed by Code Section 860G(d).
(c) The Trustee shall not accept on behalf of the REMIC any fee or
other compensation for services (other than the Trustee Fee and investment
income on amounts on deposit in the Certificate Account) and neither the Trustee
nor the Master Servicer shall knowingly accept, on behalf of the Trust Estate
any income from assets other than those permitted to be held by a REMIC.
(d) The Trustee shall not sell or permit the sale of all or any
portion of the Mortgage Loans (other than in accordance with Sections 2.02, 2.04
or 3.01), unless such sale is pursuant to a "qualified liquidation" of the REMIC
as defined in Code Section 860F(a)(4)(A) and in accordance with Article X.
(e) The Trustee shall maintain books with respect to the Trust on a
calendar year taxable year and on an accrual basis.
(f) Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall engage in a
"prohibited transaction" (as defined in Code Section 860F(a)(2)), except that,
with the prior written consent of the Master Servicer and the Depositor, the
Trustee may engage in the activities otherwise prohibited by the foregoing
paragraphs (b), (c) and (d); provided that the Master Servicer shall have
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such
transaction will not result in the imposition of a tax on the REMIC created
hereunder and will not disqualify the Trust Estate from treatment as a REMIC;
and, provided further, that the Master Servicer shall have demonstrated to the
satisfaction of the Trustee that such action will not adversely affect the
rights of the Holders of the Certificates and the Trustee and that such action
will not adversely impact the rating of the Certificates.

or, pursuant to the Depository's instructions on behalf of the Depository to,
and deposited with, the Certificate Custodian, and all other Classes of
Certificates shall initially be issued in definitive, fully-registered form.
The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature
on behalf of the Trustee by an authorized officer or signatory. 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 Trustee, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them
have ceased to be so authorized prior to the execution and delivery of such
Certificates or did not hold such offices or positions 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 Trustee 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.
Section 6.02 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
(a) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at an office or agency in the
city in which the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee is located a Certificate
Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe,
the Trustee shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers
and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. The Trustee shall initially
serve as Certificate Registrar for the purpose of registering Certificates and
transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided.
(b) At the option of the Certificateholders, Certificates may be
exchanged for other Certificates of authorized denominations of a like Class,
tenor and aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of the Certificates to
be exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any Certificates are so
surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the
exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for
transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Trustee or the Certificate
Registrar) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly
executed by, the Holder thereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing.
(c) (i) Except as provided in paragraph (c)(iii) below, the
Book-Entry Certificates shall at all times remain registered in the name of the
Depository or its nominee and at all times: (A) registration of the Book-Entry
Certificates may not be transferred by the Trustee except to another Depository;
(B) the Depository shall maintain book-entry records with respect to the
Certificate Owners and with respect to ownership and transfers of such
Book-Entry Certificates; (C) ownership and transfers of registration of the
Book-Entry Certificates on the books of the Depository shall be governed by
applicable rules established by the Depository; (D) the Depository may collect
its usual and customary fees, charges and expenses from its Depository
Participants; (E) the Trustee shall deal with the Depository as the
representative of the Certificate Owners of the Book-Entry Certificates for
purposes of exercising the rights of Holders under this Agreement, and requests
and directions for and votes of the Depository shall not be deemed to be
inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners; and
(F) 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.
(ii) 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
Owner. Each Depository Participant shall only transfer Book-Entry
Certificates of Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for
which it acts as agent in accordance with the Depository's normal
procedures.
(iii) If the Depository advises the Trustee in writing that the
Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its
responsibilities as Depository, and (2) the Trustee or the Depositor is
unable to locate a qualified successor, the Trustee shall notify all
Certificate Owners, through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such
event and of the availability of definitive, fully-registered Certificates
(the "Definitive Certificates") to Certificate Owners requesting the same.
Upon surrender to the Trustee of the related Class of Certificates by the
Depository (or by the Certificate Custodian, if it holds such Class on
behalf of the Depository), accompanied by the instructions from the
Depository for registration, the Trustee shall issue the Definitive
Certificates. None of the Master Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustee
shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instruction and may
conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such
instructions. The Depositor shall provide the Trustee with an adequate
inventory of certificates to facilitate the issuance and transfer of
Definitive Certificates. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates, the
Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as
Certificateholders hereunder.
(d) No transfer of a Private Certificate shall be made unless such
transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act and any
applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with the 1933 Act and
such laws. In the event of any such transfer, (i) unless such transfer is made
in reliance on Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, the Trustee or 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 Trustee 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 and such laws
or is being made pursuant to the 1933 Act and such laws, which Opinion of
Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Depositor and (ii) the
Trustee shall require a certificate from the Certificateholder desiring to
effect such transfer substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G-1
and a certificate from such Certificateholder's prospective transferee
substantially in the form attached hereto either as Exhibit G-2A or as Exhibit
G-2B, which certificates shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the
Depositor; provided that the foregoing requirements under clauses (i) and (ii)
shall not apply to a transfer of a Private Certificate between or among the
Depositor, the Seller, their affiliates or both. The Depositor shall provide to
any Holder of a Private Certificate and any prospective transferees designated
by any such Holder, information regarding the related Certificates and the
Mortgage Loans and such other information as shall be necessary to satisfy the
condition to eligibility set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) for transfer of any such
certificate without registration thereof under the 1933 Act pursuant to the
registration exemption provided by Rule 144A. The Holder of a Private
Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to,
indemnify the Trustee 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.
(e) No transfer of an ERISA Restricted Certificate shall be made
unless the transferee delivers to the Trustee either (i) a representation letter
in the form of Exhibit H from the transferee of such Certificate, which
representation letter shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Trustee or
the Master Servicer, or (ii) in the case of any ERISA Restricted Certificate
presented for registration in the name of an employee benefit plan or
arrangement, including an individual retirement account, subject to ERISA, the
Code, or any federal, state or local law ("Similar Law") which is similar to
ERISA or the Code (collectively, a "Plan"), or a trustee or custodian of any of
the foregoing, an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the
Trustee and the Master Servicer to the effect that the purchase or holding of
such ERISA Restricted Certificate by or on behalf of such Plan will not
constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction within the meaning
of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or Similar Law and will not subject the
Trustee, the Depositor or the Master Servicer to any obligation in addition to
those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an
expense of the Trustee or the Master Servicer. Any transferee of an ERISA
Restricted Certificate that does not comply with either clause (i) or (ii) of
the preceding sentence will be deemed to have made one of the representations
set forth in Exhibit H. For purposes of clause (i) of the second preceding
sentence, such representation shall be deemed to have been made to the
Certificate Registrar by the acceptance by a Certificate Owner of a Book-Entry
Certificate of the beneficial interest in any such Class of ERISA Restricted
Certificates, unless the Certificate Registrar shall have received from the
transferee an alternative representation acceptable in form and substance to the
Depositor. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, any purported
transfer of an ERISA Restricted Certificate to or on behalf of a Plan without
the delivery to the Trustee and the Master Servicer of an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to the Trustee and the Master Servicer as described above shall be
void and of no effect.
Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Registrar shall have any
liability for transfers of Book-Entry Certificates made through the book-entry
facilities of the Depository or between or among any Depository Participants or
Certificate Owners, made in violation of applicable restrictions. 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.
To the extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not
limited to, ERISA), the Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for
any registration of transfer of any ERISA Restricted Certificate that is in fact
not permitted by this Section 6.02 or for making any payments due on such
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 Trustee in accordance with the foregoing requirements.
(f) Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in
the 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 the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in the Residual
Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:
(i) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in the
Residual Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly
notify the Trustee of any change or impending change in its status as a
Permitted Transferee.
(ii) No Person shall acquire an Ownership Interest in the Residual
Certificate unless such Ownership Interest is a pro rata undivided
interest.
(iii) In connection with any proposed transfer of any Ownership
Interest in the Residual Certificate, the Trustee shall require delivery
to it, in form and substance satisfactory to it, of an affidavit in the
form of Exhibit I hereto from the proposed transferee.
(iv) Notwithstanding the delivery of an affidavit by a proposed
transferee under clause (iii) above, if a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee has actual knowledge that the proposed transferee is not a
Permitted Transferee, no transfer of any Ownership Interest in the
Residual Certificate to such proposed transferee shall be effected.
(v) No Ownership Interest in the Residual Certificate may be
purchased by or transferred to any Person that is not a U.S. Person,
unless (A) such Person holds such Residual Certificate in connection with
the conduct of a trade or business within the United States and furnishes
the transferor and the Trustee with an effective Internal Revenue Service
Form W-8ECI (or successor thereto) or (B) the transferee delivers to both
the transferor and the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel from a
nationally-recognized tax counsel to the effect that such transfer is in
accordance with the requirements of the Code and the regulations
promulgated thereunder and that such transfer of the Residual Certificate
will not be disregarded for federal income tax purposes.
(vi) Any attempted or purported transfer of any Ownership Interest
in the Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section
6.02 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 6.02, become a Holder of the 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 6.02, be restored to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to
the date of registration of transfer of such Residual Certificate. The
Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of
transfer of the Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this
Section 6.02 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 the Agreement so long as the
transfer was registered in accordance with this Section 6.02. The Trustee
shall be entitled to recover from any Holder of the 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.
(vii) If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any
Ownership Interest in the Residual Certificate in violation of the
restrictions in this Section 6.02, then the Trustee, based on information
provided to the Trustee by the Master Servicer, will provide to the
Internal Revenue Service, and to the Persons specified in Section
860E(e)(3) and (6) of the Code, information needed to compute the tax
imposed under Section 860E(e) of the Code on transfers of residual
interests to disqualified organizations. The expenses of the Trustee under
this clause (vii) shall be reimbursable by the Trust.
(viii) No Ownership Interest in the Residual Certificate shall be
acquired by a Plan or any Person acting on behalf of a Plan.
(g) [Reserved]
(h) No service charge shall be imposed for any transfer or exchange
of Certificates of any Class, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
(i) All Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be
destroyed by the Certificate Registrar.
Section 6.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If
(a) 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 (b) there is delivered to the Trustee, the
Depositor and the Certificate Registrar such security or indemnity reasonably
satisfactory to each, to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of
actual notice to the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar that such Certificate
has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor, Class and Percentage
Interest but bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. Upon the
issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Trustee may require the
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees
and expenses of the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith.
Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute
complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally
issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found
at any time.
Section 6.04 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a
Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person
in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for
the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.01 and for all
other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any agent of the Master Servicer, the
Trustee or the Certificate Registrar shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.
ARTICLE VII
THE DEPOSITOR AND THE MASTER SERVICER
Section 7.01 Respective Liabilities of the Depositor and the Master
Servicer. The Depositor and the Master Servicer shall each be liable in
accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically and
respectively imposed upon and undertaken by the Depositor and the Master
Servicer herein. By way of illustration and not limitation, the Depositor is not
liable for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans, nor is it
obligated by Section 8.01 to assume any obligations of the Master Servicer or to
appoint a designee to assume such obligations, nor is it liable for any other
obligation hereunder that it may, but is not obligated to, assume unless it
elects to assume such obligation in accordance herewith.
Section 7.02 Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor or the Master
Servicer. The Depositor and the Master Servicer will each keep in full effect
its existence, rights and franchises as a separate entity under the laws
governing its organization, and will each obtain and preserve its qualification
to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which such
qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement, the Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans
and to perform its respective duties under this Agreement.
Any Person into which the Depositor or the Master Servicer may be
merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger or
consolidation to which the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be a party, or
any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor or the Master Servicer,
shall be the successor of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case may
be, hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act
on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.
Section 7.03 Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the Master
Servicer and Others. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any of the
directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor or of the Master
Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trust Estate or the
Certificateholders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any
action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment;
provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Depositor, the
Master Servicer or any such Person against any breach of warranties or
representations made herein or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by
reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance
of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties
hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Depositor or the Master Servicer may rely in good faith
on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any
Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor, the Master
Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the
Master Servicer shall be indemnified by the Trust Estate and held harmless
against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal
action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any loss,
liability or expense related to any specific Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans
(except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise reimbursable
pursuant to this Agreement) and any loss, liability or expense incurred by
reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance
of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties
hereunder. Neither of the Depositor nor the Master Servicer shall be under any
obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not
incidental to its respective duties under this Agreement and which in its
opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the
Depositor or the Master Servicer may in its discretion undertake any such action
which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect to this Agreement and the
rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the
Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of
such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and
liabilities of the Trust Estate, and the Depositor and the Master Servicer shall
be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of amounts attributable to the
Mortgage Loans on deposit in the Investment Account as provided by Section 3.05.
Section 7.04 Master Servicer Not to Resign. Subject to the
provisions of Section 7.02, the Master Servicer shall not resign from its
obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon determination that its
duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law. Any such
determination permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall be
evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Trustee. No
such resignation by the Master Servicer shall become effective until the Trustee
or a successor Master Servicer shall have assumed the Master Servicer's
responsibilities and obligations in accordance with Section 8.05 hereof.
Section 7.05 Master Servicer's Covenant Not to Solicit. The Master
Servicer covenants that neither the Master Servicer nor any affiliate of the
Master Servicer will take any action personally, by telephone, by mail or
otherwise, to solicit the prepayment of the Mortgage Loans by the Mortgagors, in
whole or in part. Nothing in this Section 7.05, however, shall prohibit the
Master Servicer or any affiliate from (i) advertising its availability for
handling refinancings of mortgage loans in its servicing portfolio if the
Mortgage Loans are not specifically targeted; (ii) promoting terms available for
refinancing by sending letters or promotional material to the mortgagors of all
the mortgage loans that it owns or services; (iii) promoting terms available for
refinancing by sending letters or promotional material to the mortgagors of all
the mortgage loans of a specific type (e.g., conventional fixed-rate or
conventional adjustable-rate) that it owns or services; (iv) promoting terms
available for refinancing by sending letters or promotional material to the
mortgagors of all the mortgage loans that fall within specific interest rate
ranges that it owns or services; (v) providing payoff information or otherwise
cooperating with individual Mortgagors who contact it about prepaying any
Mortgage Loan; or (vi) advising individual Mortgagors who contact it about
prepaying any Mortgage Loan of refinancing terms or streamlined origination
arrangements that are available.
In no event, however, shall the Master Servicer or any affiliate
treat mortgage loans that it holds in its own portfolio and the Mortgage Loans
as separate classes of mortgages for purposes of advertising the availability of
refinancing terms.
Section 7.06 Covenant to Disclose Servicing Deficiencies. The Master
Servicer hereby covenants that, in connection with the preparation of the
statement required to be furnished to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.15, it
will disclose all significant deficiencies relating to the Master Servicer's
compliance with the minimum standards set forth in this Agreement to the
independent public accountants hired to furnish such statement.
ARTICLE VIII
DEFAULT
Section 8.01 Events of Default. If any one of the following events
("Events of Default") shall occur and be continuing:
(a) any failure by the Master Servicer to deposit or cause to remit
amounts to the Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Account in the amount
and manner provided herein so as to enable the Trustee to distribute to Holders
of Certificates any payment required to be made under the terms of such
Certificates and this Agreement (other than the payments required to be made
under Section 3.19) which continues unremedied for a period of three Business
Days; or
(b) failure on the part of the Master Servicer duly to observe or
perform in any material respect any other covenants or agreements of the Master
Servicer set forth in the Certificates or in this Agreement, which covenants and
agreements continue unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which
written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have
been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee or the Depositor, or to the
Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates
evidencing Voting Rights aggregating not less than 25% of all Certificates
affected thereby; or
(c) the entry of a decree or order by a court or agency or
supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of
a conservator, receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt,
marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings against the Master
Servicer, or for the winding up or liquidation of the Master Servicer's affairs,
and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a
period of 60 consecutive days; or
(d) the consent by the Master Servicer to the appointment of a
conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt,
marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to
the Master Servicer or of or relating to substantially all of its property; or
the Master Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts
generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any
applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the
benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or
(e) the failure of the Master Servicer to remit any Advance required
to be remitted by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.19 which failure
continues unremedied at the opening of business on the related Distribution
Date;
then, and in each and every such case (other than the Event of Default described
in clause (e) hereof), so long as an Event of Default is actually known by the
Trustee or the Depositor and shall not have been remedied by the Master
Servicer, either the Trustee or the Depositor may, and at the direction of the
Holders of Certificates evidencing Voting Rights aggregating not less than 51%
of all Certificates affected thereby shall, by notice then given in writing to
the Master Servicer (and to the Trustee, if given by the Depositor, and to the
Depositor, if given by the Trustee), terminate all of the rights and obligations
of the Master Servicer under this Agreement. If an Event of Default described in
clause (e) hereof shall occur and is actually known by the Trustee, the Trustee
shall, by notice to the Master Servicer, terminate all of the rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the
Mortgage Loans and proceeds thereof (but without prejudice to any rights it may
have as a Certificateholder or to reimbursement of any Advance and other
advances of its own funds properly made prior to termination) and the Trustee or
a successor Master Servicer appointed pursuant to Section 8.05 shall, on the
related Distribution Date, make the Advance which the Master Servicer failed to
make. On or after the receipt by the Master Servicer of such written notice and
subject to Section 8.05, all authority and power of the Master 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 8.01, unless and until such time as the Trustee shall appoint a
successor Master Servicer pursuant to Section 8.05, and, without limitation, the
Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of
the Master Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and
other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or
appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to
complete the transfer and endorsement of the Mortgage Loans and related
documents, or otherwise, including, without limitation, the recordation of the
assignments of the Mortgage Loans to it. In addition, upon the occurrence of an
Event of Default, in the event the Master Servicer is acting as Servicer for the
Mortgage Loans for which the Master Servicer has not entered into a Servicing
Contract, the Master Servicer shall cease to act as Servicer with respect to
such Mortgage Loans and, subject to Section 8.05, all authority and power of the
Master Servicer, whether with respect to such Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall
pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under this Section 8.01,
unless and until such time as the Trustee shall appoint a successor Master
Servicer pursuant to Section 8.05. Any such action taken by the Trustee must be
prior to the distribution on the relevant Distribution Date. If the Master
Servicer shall within two Business Days following such suspension remit to the
Trustee the amount of any Advance the nonpayment of which by the Master Servicer
was an Event of Default described in clause (e) of this Section 8.01 and no
other Event of Default is then continuing, the Trustee, subject to the last
sentence of this paragraph, may permit the Master Servicer to resume its rights
and obligations as Master Servicer hereunder. The Master Servicer agrees that it
will reimburse the Trustee for actual, necessary and reasonable costs incurred
by the Trustee because of action taken pursuant to this Section 8.01 as a result
of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(e). The Master Servicer agrees that if
an Event of Default as described in clause (e) of this Section 8.01 shall occur
more than two times in any twelve month period, the Master Servicer may not be
permitted to resume its rights and obligations as Master Servicer hereunder. The
Master Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the
termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Master Servicer hereunder,
including, without limitation, the transfer to the Trustee for the
administration by it of all cash amounts that have been deposited by the Master
Servicer in the Investment Account and in any Custodial Account and Escrow
Account maintained by the Master Servicer or thereafter received by the Master
Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans. All Master Servicing Transfer Costs
incurred in connection with transferring the Mortgage Files to the successor
Master Servicer and amending this Agreement to reflect such succession as Master
Servicer pursuant to this Section 8.01 shall be paid by the predecessor Master
Servicer upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs, and if
such predecessor Master Servicer defaults in its obligation to pay such costs,
such costs shall be paid by the successor Master Servicer or the Trustee (in
which case the successor Master Servicer or the Trustee shall be entitled to
reimbursement therefor from the assets of the Trust). Notwithstanding the
termination of the Master Servicer pursuant hereto, the Master Servicer shall
remain liable for any causes of action arising out of any Event of Default
occurring prior to such termination, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement.
Upon obtaining actual notice or actual knowledge of the occurrence of any
Event of Default, the Person obtaining such notice or knowledge shall give
prompt written notice thereof to the Trustee. Within ten Business Days after the
occurrence of any Event of Default known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall
transmit by mail to the Rating Agencies notice of each Event of Default. Within
90 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default known to the Trustee, the
Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Certificateholders (with a copy to the
Rating Agencies) notice of each Event of Default, unless such Event of Default
shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, the Trustee shall be
protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a Responsible Officer of
the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in
the best interests of the Certificateholders; and provided, further, that in the
case of any Event of Default of the character specified in Section 8.01(b) no
such notice to Certificateholders or to the Rating Agencies shall be given until
at least 15 days after the occurrence thereof.
Section 8.02 Remedies of Trustee. During the continuance of any
Event of Default, so long as such Event of Default shall not have been remedied,
the Trustee, in addition to the rights specified in, and subject to, Section
8.01, shall have the right, in its own name as trustee of an express trust, to
take all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute to
enforce its rights and remedies and to protect the interests, and enforce the
rights and remedies, of the Certificateholders (including the institution and
prosecution of all judicial, administrative and other proceedings and the filing
of proofs of claim and debt in connection therewith). Except as otherwise
expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy provided for by this Agreement
shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall be
cumulative and in addition to any other remedy and no delay or omission to
exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or remedy or shall be
deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default.
Section 8.03 Directions by Certificateholders and Duties of Trustee
During Event of Default. During the continuance of any Event of Default, Holders
of Certificates evidencing Voting Rights aggregating not less than 25% (or such
other percentage as may be required herein) of each Class of Certificates
affected thereby may direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or
power conferred upon the Trustee under this Agreement; provided, however, that
the Trustee shall be under no obligation to pursue any such remedy, or to
exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement (including,
without limitation, (a) the conducting or defending of any administrative action
or litigation hereunder or in relation hereto, and (b) the terminating of the
Master Servicer or any successor Master Servicer from its rights and duties as
servicer hereunder) at the request, order or direction of any of the
Certificateholders, 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 and, provided further,
that, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction
if the Trustee, based upon an Opinion of Counsel, determines that the action or
proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or, subject to the provisions
of Section 9.01, if the Trustee in good faith determines that the action or
proceeding so directed would subject it to personal liability or be unjustly
prejudicial to the non-assenting Certificateholders.
Section 8.04 Action upon Certain Failures of the Master Servicer and
upon Event of Default. In the event that the Trustee shall have actual knowledge
of any failure of the Master Servicer specified in Section 8.01(a) or (b) which
would become an Event of Default upon the Master Servicer's failure to remedy
the same after notice, the Trustee shall give notice thereof to the Master
Servicer. If the Trustee shall have knowledge of an Event of Default, the
Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Certificateholders in
accordance with Section 8.01.
Section 8.05 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
(a) Within 90 days after the time the Master Servicer (and the
Trustee if such notice of termination is delivered by the Depositor) receives a
notice of termination pursuant to Section 8.01, the Trustee shall be the
successor in all respects to the Master Servicer under this Agreement and under
the Servicing Contracts with respect to all of the Mortgage Loans and the
transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Master
Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof and thereof or shall appoint a
successor pursuant to Section 3.16. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the
parties hereto agree that the Trustee, in its capacity as successor Master
Servicer immediately will assume all of the obligations of the Master Servicer
to make advances (including, without limitation, Advances pursuant to Section
3.19), (ii) the Trustee, in its capacity as successor Master Servicer, shall not
be responsible for the lack of information and/or documents that it cannot
obtain through reasonable efforts and (iii) under no circumstances shall any
provision of this Agreement be construed to require the Trustee, acting in its
capacity as successor to the Master Servicer in its obligation to make advances
(including Advances pursuant to Section 3.19), to advance, expend or risk its
own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its
duties hereunder if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that such
funds are non-recoverable. Subject to Section 8.05(b), as compensation therefor,
the Trustee shall be entitled to such compensation as the terminated Master
Servicer would have been entitled to hereunder if no such notice of termination
had been given except for those amounts due to the Master Servicer as
reimbursement for advances previously made or amounts previously expended and
are otherwise reimbursable hereunder. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee
may, if it shall be unwilling so to act, or shall, if it is legally unable so to
act, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any
established housing and home finance institution having a net worth of not less
than $10,000,000 as the successor to the terminated Master Servicer hereunder in
the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities
of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that any such institution
appointed as successor Master Servicer shall not, as evidenced in writing by
each Rating Agency, adversely affect the then current rating of any Class of
Certificates immediately prior to the termination of the terminated Master
Servicer. The appointment of a successor Master Servicer shall not affect any
liability of the predecessor Master Servicer and predecessor Servicer which may
have arisen under this Agreement prior to its termination as Master Servicer,
nor shall any successor Master Servicer be liable for any acts or omissions of
the predecessor Master Servicer or for any breach by the Master Servicer of any
of its representations or warranties contained herein or in any related document
or agreement. Pending appointment of a successor to the terminated Master
Servicer hereunder, unless the Trustee is prohibited by law from so acting, the
Trustee shall act in such capacity as provided above. The Trustee and such
successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be
necessary to effectuate any such succession. All Master Servicing Transfer Costs
shall be paid by the predecessor Master Servicer upon presentation of reasonable
documentation of such costs, and if such predecessor Master Servicer defaults in
its obligation to pay such costs, such costs shall be paid by the successor
Master Servicer or the Trustee (in which case the successor Master Servicer or
the Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor from the assets of the
Trust).
(b) In connection with the appointment of a successor Master
Servicer or the assumption of the duties of the Master Servicer, as specified in
Section 8.05(a), the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of
such successor as it and such successor agree; provided however that such
compensation shall not exceed the compensation of the Master Servicer hereunder.
(c) Any successor, including the Trustee, to the Master Servicer as
master servicer shall during the term of its service as master servicer maintain
in force (i) a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and omissions in
the performance of its obligations as master servicer hereunder and (ii) a
fidelity bond in respect of its officers, employees and agents to the same
extent as the Master Servicer is so required pursuant to Section 3.01.
Section 8.06 Notification to Certificateholders. Upon any
termination or appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer pursuant to
this Article VIII, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to
Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate
Register and to each Rating Agency.
ARTICLE IX
THE TRUSTEE
Section 9.01 Duties of Trustee.
(a) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and
after the curing or waiver of all Events of Default which may have occurred,
undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set
forth in this Agreement. In case an Event of Default has occurred of which a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge (which has not
been cured or waived), the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers
vested in it by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in
their exercise as a reasonably prudent investor would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such investor'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 to the requirements of this Agreement.
(b) No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the
Trustee from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly
negligent failure to act or its own willful misfeasance; provided, however,
that:
(i) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, and after the
curing or waiver of all such Events of Default which may have occurred,
the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by
the express provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be liable
except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are
specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or
obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee and, in
the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may
conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness
of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions
furnished to the Trustee by the Depositor or the Master Servicer and which
on their face, do not contradict the requirements of this Agreement;
(ii) The Trustee (in its individual capacity) shall not be
personally liable for an error of judgment made in good faith by a
Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee, unless it
shall be proved that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the
pertinent facts;
(iii) The Trustee (in its individual capacity) shall not be
personally liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to
be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of
Certificateholders as provided in Section 8.03;
(iv) The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any default
(other than a default in payment to the Trustee) specified in clauses (a)
and (b) of Section 8.01 or an Event of Default under clauses (c), (d) and
(e) of Section 8.01 unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee assigned
to and working in the Corporate Trust Office obtains actual knowledge of
such failure or event or any officer of the Trustee receives written
notice of such failure or event at its Corporate Trust Office from the
Master Servicer, the Depositor or any Certificateholder; and
(v) Except to the extent provided in Section 8.05, no provision in
this Agreement shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds
(including, without limitation, the making of any Advance as successor
Master Servicer) or otherwise incur any personal financial liability in
the performance of any of its duties as Trustee hereunder, or in the
exercise of any of its rights or powers, if the Trustee shall have
reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of funds or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.
Section 9.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01:
(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 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 be under no obligation to exercise any of
the trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to institute,
conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the
request, order or direction of any of the Certificateholders, pursuant to
the provisions of this Agreement, unless such Certificateholders shall
have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the
costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby;
nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the
obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (which has not been
cured or waived), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it
by this Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their
exercise as a prudent investor would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of such investor's own affairs;
(iv) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any action
taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be
authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it
by this Agreement;
(v) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder and
after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default which may have
occurred, the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into
the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval,
bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing so to do by
Holders of Certificates or any Class evidencing, as to such Class,
Percentage Interests, aggregating not less than 50%; provided, however,
that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs,
expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such
investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured to
the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Agreement,
the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such expense or
liability or payment of such estimated expenses as a condition to so
proceeding; and
(vi) 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.
Section 9.03 Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the execution
and authentication of the Certificates) shall be taken as the statements of the
Depositor or Master Servicer, as applicable, and the Trustee assumes no
responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to
the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the Certificates or any
Mortgage Loans save that the Trustee represents that, assuming due execution and
delivery by the other parties hereto, this Agreement has been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding
obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject, as to
enforcement of remedies, to applicable insolvency, receivership, moratorium and
other laws affecting the rights of creditors generally, and to general
principles of equity and the discretion of the court (regardless of whether
enforcement of such remedies is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Depositor
of funds paid to the Depositor in consideration of the assignment of the
Mortgage Loans hereunder by the Depositor, or for the use or application of any
funds paid to the Master Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited
into the Investment Account, or any other account hereunder (other than the
Certificate Account) by the Master Servicer.
The Trustee shall at no 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 Master Servicer pursuant to Section
8.05 and thereupon only for the acts or omissions of the Trustee as the
successor Master Servicer); 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 Master Servicer pursuant to
Section 8.05 and thereupon only for the acts or omissions of the Trustee as
successor Master Servicer); the compliance by the Depositor or the Master
Servicer with any warranty or representation made under this Agreement or in any
related document or the accuracy of any such warranty or representation; any
investment of monies by or at the direction of the Master Servicer or any loss
resulting therefrom, it being understood that the Trustee shall remain
responsible for any Trust property that it may hold in its individual capacity;
the acts or omissions of any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer (other than
if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Master Servicer pursuant to
Section 8.05 and thereupon only for the acts or omissions of the Trustee as
successor Master Servicer), or any Mortgagor; any action of the Master Servicer
(other than if the Trustee shall assume the duties of the Master Servicer
pursuant to Section 8.05 and thereupon only for the acts or omissions of the
Trustee as successor Master Servicer) taken in the name of the Trustee; the
failure of the Master 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 Master Servicer (other than if the Trustee shall assume the
duties of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 8.05 and thereupon only for
the acts or omissions of the Trustee as successor Master Servicer); provided,
however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the Trustee of its obligation to
perform its duties under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the
Trustee's review of the Mortgage Files pursuant to Section 2.02. The Trustee
shall file any financing or continuation statement in any public office at any
time required to maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien
granted to it hereunder.
Section 9.04 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 it would have if it were not Trustee and may otherwise deal
with the Master Servicer, any Servicer, any of their respective affiliates with
the same right it would have if it were not the Trustee.
Section 9.05 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee. The Trustee
hereunder shall at all times be (a) an institution the deposits of which are
fully insured by the FDIC and (b) a corporation or banking association organized
and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any
State, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a
combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to
supervision or examination by Federal or State authority and (c) with respect to
every successor trustee hereunder either an institution (i) the long-term
unsecured debt obligations of which are rated at least "A" by S&P and Fitch or
(ii) whose serving as Trustee hereunder would not result in the lowering of the
ratings originally assigned to any Class of Certificates. The Trustee shall not
be an affiliate of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any Servicer. If such
corporation or banking association publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or
examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 9.05, the combined
capital and surplus of such corporation or banking association 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 provision of this Section 9.05, the Trustee shall resign immediately in
the manner and with the effect specified in Section 9.06.
Section 9.06 Resignation and Removal of Trustee. The Trustee may at
any time resign and be discharged from the trust hereby created by giving
written notice thereof to the Master Servicer and mailing a copy of such notice
to all Holders of record. The Trustee shall also mail a copy of such notice of
resignation to each Rating Agency. Upon receiving such notice of resignation,
the Master Servicer shall use its best efforts to promptly appoint a mutually
acceptable 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
shall have 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 9.05 and shall fail to resign after written
request therefor by the Master Servicer, or if at any time the Trustee shall
become incapable of acting, 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
Master Servicer may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by
written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be
delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor.
The Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 50% of the
Voting Rights may at any time remove the Trustee by written instrument or
instruments delivered to the Master Servicer and the Trustee; the Master
Servicer shall thereupon use its best efforts to appoint a mutually acceptable
successor Trustee in accordance with this Section 9.06.
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a
successor Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 9.06 shall
become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee as
provided in Section 9.07.
Section 9.07 Successor Trustee. Any successor Trustee appointed as
provided in Section 9.06 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Master
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 herein. The predecessor Trustee shall duly assign, transfer,
deliver and pay over to the successor Trustee the whole of the Mortgage Files
and related documents and statements held by it hereunder, together with all
instruments of transfer and assignment or other documents properly executed as
may be reasonably required to effect such transfer and such of the records or
copies thereof maintained by the predecessor Trustee in the administration
hereof as may be reasonably requested by the successor Trustee and shall
thereupon be discharged from all duties and responsibilities under this
Agreement; provided, however, that if the predecessor Trustee has been
terminated pursuant to the third paragraph of Section 9.06, all reasonable
expenses of the predecessor Trustee incurred in complying with this Section 9.07
shall be reimbursed by the Trust.
No successor Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section 9.07 unless at the time of such appointment such successor Trustee shall
be eligible under the provisions of Section 9.05.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as provided in
this Section 9.07, the Master Servicer shall cooperate (at the expense of the
Trust) to mail notice of the succession of such Trustee hereunder to all Holders
of Certificates at their addresses as shown in the Certificate Register and to
each Rating Agency. If the Master Servicer fails to mail such notice within ten
days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee, the successor
Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Master
Servicer.
Section 9.08 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee. Any corporation or
banking association into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with
which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or banking association
resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee
shall be a party, or any corporation or banking association succeeding to all or
substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the
successor of the Trustee hereunder, if such corporation or banking association
is eligible under the provisions of Section 9.05, 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 9.09 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
Notwithstanding any of the provisions hereof, at any time, for the purpose of
meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any Mortgaged
Property may at the time be located or for any other reason, the Master Servicer
and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and
deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee
as co-trustee or separate trustee of all or any part of the Trust Estate, and to
vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to the Trust
Estate, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provision of this Section
9.09, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Master Servicer
and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Master Servicer
shall not have joined in such appointment within ten days after the receipt by
it of a request to do so, 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 9.05 and no
notice to Holders of Certificates of the appointment of co-trustee(s) or
separate trustee(s) shall be required under Section 9.07.
In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee
pursuant to this Section 9.09, all rights, powers, duties and obligations
conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and
exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee
jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which
any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or
as successor to the Master Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent
or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers,
duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust Estate or
any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed
by such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the Trustee. No
trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable by reason of any act or
omission of any other trustee hereunder; provided, however, that no appointment
of a co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall relieve the Trustee of its
obligations hereunder.
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 IX. 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.
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 become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, or shall be adjudged a
bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of its property shall be appointed, or any
public officer shall take charge or control of such trustee or co-trustee or of
its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or
liquidation, 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 9.10 Authenticating Agents. The Trustee may appoint one or
more authenticating agents ("Authenticating Agents") which shall be authorized
to act on behalf of the Trustee in authenticating Certificates. Initially, the
Authenticating Agent shall be Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. Wherever reference is made
in this Agreement to the authentication of Certificates by the Trustee or the
Trustee's certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to
include authentication on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a
certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent must be acceptable to the Master
Servicer and must be a corporation or banking association organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state, having
a place of business in New York, New York, having a combined capital and surplus
of at least $15,000,000, authorized under such laws to do a trust business and
subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities.
Any corporation or banking association into which any Authenticating
Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any
corporation or banking association resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any
corporation or banking association succeeding to the corporate agency business
of any Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be the Authenticating Agent
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.
Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving written
notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Master Servicer. The Trustee may
at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written
notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and to the Master Servicer.
Upon receiving a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case,
at any time any Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of this Section 9.10, the Trustee may appoint a successor
Authenticating Agent, shall give written notice of such appointment to the
Master Servicer and shall mail notice of such appointment to all
Certificateholders. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its
appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties
and responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if
originally named as Authenticating Agent.
Section 9.11 Trustee's Fees and Expenses. The Trustee, as
compensation for its activities hereunder, shall be entitled to receive on each
Distribution Date an amount equal to the Trustee Fee for such Distribution Date
pursuant to Section 5.02(a). The Trustee and any director, officer, employee or
agent of the Trustee shall be indemnified by the Trust and held harmless against
any loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorney's fees) (a)
incurred in connection with any claim or legal action relating to (i) this
Agreement, (ii) the Certificates, or (iii) the performance of any of the
Trustee's duties hereunder or the payment of any indemnity by the Trustee to the
Custodian pursuant to the proviso clause of Section 3.02(a) of the Custodial
Agreement, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of
willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of any of
the Trustee's duties hereunder, (b) resulting from any tax or information return
which was prepared by, or should have been prepared by, the Master Servicer
and/or (c) arising out of the transfer of any ERISA Restricted Certificate or
Residual Certificate not in compliance with ERISA. Such indemnity shall survive
the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Trustee
hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, except as otherwise agreed upon in
writing by the Depositor and the Trustee, and except for any such expense,
disbursement or advance as may arise from the Trustee's gross negligence, bad
faith or willful misconduct, the Trust shall reimburse the Trustee for all
reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee
in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement to the extent
permitted by Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii) and (iii);
provided, however, that the Depositor and the Trustee intend to enter into a
separate agreement with the Custodian for custody-related services. Except as
otherwise provided herein, the Trustee shall not be entitled to payment or
reimbursement for any routine ongoing expenses incurred by the Trustee in the
ordinary course of its duties as Trustee, Certificate Registrar or Paying Agent
hereunder or for any other expenses.
Section 9.12 Custodian. The Trustee agrees to enforce the terms and
provisions thereof against the Custodian for the benefit of the
Certificateholders.
Section 9.13 Paying Agents. The Trustee may appoint one or more
Paying Agents (each, a "Paying Agent") which shall be authorized to act on
behalf of the Trustee in making withdrawals from the Certificate Account and
distributions to Certificateholders as provided in Section 3.05 and Section
5.02. Wherever reference is made in this Agreement to the withdrawal from the
Certificate Account by the Trustee, such reference shall be deemed to include
such a withdrawal on behalf of the Trustee by a Paying Agent. Initially, the
Paying Agent shall be Xxxxx Fargo Bank, N.A. Whenever reference is made in this
Agreement to a distribution by the Trustee or the furnishing of a statement to
Certificateholders by the Trustee, such reference shall be deemed to include
such a distribution or furnishing on behalf of the Trustee by a Paying Agent.
Each Paying Agent shall provide to the Trustee such information concerning the
Certificate Account as the Trustee shall request from time to time. Each Paying
Agent must be a corporation or banking association organized and doing business
under the laws of the United States of America or of any state, having (except
in the case of the Trustee) a principal office and place of business in New
York, New York, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000,
authorized under such laws to do a trust business and subject to supervision or
examination by federal or state authorities. Any fees and expenses (but not
including any indemnity payments) of a Paying Agent appointed pursuant to this
Agreement shall be payable by the Trustee out of its own funds and not out of
any funds of the Trust Estate.
Any corporation into which any Paying Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which any Paying Agent shall be
a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency business of any
Paying Agent, shall continue to be the Paying Agent provided that such
corporation after the consummation of such merger, conversion, consolidation or
succession meets the eligibility requirements of this Section 9.13.
Any Paying Agent may at any time resign by giving written notice of
resignation to the Trustee and to the Master Servicer; provided that the Paying
Agent has returned to the Certificate Account or otherwise accounted, to the
reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee, for all amounts it has withdrawn from
the Certificate Account. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any
Paying Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Paying Agent and to
the Master Servicer. Upon receiving a notice of resignation or upon such a
termination, or in case at any time any Paying Agent shall cease to be eligible
in accordance with the provisions of the first paragraph of this Section 9.13,
the Trustee may appoint a successor Paying Agent, shall give written notice of
such appointment to the Master Servicer and shall mail notice of such
appointment to all Certificateholders. Any successor Paying Agent upon
acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all rights,
powers, duties and responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like
effect as if originally named as Paying Agent. The Trustee shall remain liable
for any duties and obligations assumed by its appointed Paying Agent.
Section 9.14 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 9.15 Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of
Certificates. 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 preceding instituted by the Trustee shall
be brought in its own name or in its capacity as Trustee. 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.
Section 9.16 Suits for Enforcement. In case an Event of Default or
other default by the Master Servicer or the Depositor hereunder shall occur and
be continuing, the Trustee, in its discretion but subject to 8.01, may proceed
to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Certificates
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, shall deem most effectual to
protect and enforce any of the rights of the Trustee and the Certificateholders.
Section 9.17 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 9.18 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.
ARTICLE X
TERMINATION
Section 10.01 Termination upon Purchase by the Master Servicer or
Liquidation of All Mortgage Loans. Subject to Section 10.02, the respective
obligations and responsibilities of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the
Trustee created hereby (other than the obligation of the Trustee to make certain
payments to Certificateholders after the Final Distribution Date and to send
certain notices as hereinafter set forth and the obligations of the Trustee
pursuant to Sections 5.04(b) and 5.05(b)) shall terminate upon the last action
required to be taken by the Trustee on the Final Distribution Date pursuant to
this Article X following the earlier of (a) the purchase by the Master Servicer
of all Mortgage Loans and all REO Property remaining in the Trust Estate at a
price equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the Stated Principal Balance of each
Mortgage Loan (other than any Mortgage Loan as to which REO Property has been
acquired and whose fair market value is included pursuant to clause (ii) below)
and (ii) the fair market value of such REO Property, plus accrued and unpaid
interest through the last day of the month of such purchase at the applicable
Mortgage Interest Rate (including any Mortgage Loan as to which REO Property has
been acquired) or (b) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance
with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Estate or
the disposition of all REO Property.
The Master Servicer may not exercise it purchase option until all
Reimbursement Amounts owed to the Trust have been paid. The Trustee shall notify
the Representing Party (if such party is unaffiliated with the Master Servicer)
upon notice of the Master Servicer's intent to exercise its purchase option of
any Reimbursement Amount outstanding and the Representing Party shall deposit
any unpaid Reimbursement Amounts in the Certificate Account not later than the
Business Day preceding the next succeeding Distribution Date.
Regardless of 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 right of the Master Servicer to purchase all of the Mortgage
Loans is conditioned upon (A) the Pool Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage
Loans as of such Final Distribution Date being less than 1% of the aggregate
Cut-off Date Principal Balance and (B) the sum of clause (a)(i) and (ii) of the
first paragraph of this Section 10.01 being less than or equal to the aggregate
fair market value of the Mortgage Loans (other than any Mortgage Loan as to
which REO Property has been acquired) and the REO Properties; provided, however,
that this clause (B) shall not apply to any purchase by the Master Servicer if,
at the time of the purchase, the Master Servicer is no longer subject to
regulation by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the FDIC, the
Federal Reserve or the OTS. Fair market value for purposes of this paragraph and
the first paragraph of this Section 10.01 will be determined by the Master
Servicer as of the close of business on the third Business Day next preceding
the date upon which notice of any such termination is furnished to
Certificateholders pursuant to the fifth paragraph of this Article X. If such
right is exercised, the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, promptly
following payment of the purchase price, release to the Depositor or its
designee the Mortgage Files pertaining to the Mortgage Loans being purchased.
Notice of any termination, specifying the Final Distribution Date
(which shall be a date that would otherwise be a Distribution Date) upon which
the Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates to the Trustee for
payment of the final distribution and for cancellation, shall be given promptly
by the Master Servicer (if exercising its right to purchase the assets of the
Trust) or by the Trustee (in any other case) by letter to Certificateholders
mailed not earlier than the 15th day and not later than the 25th day of the
month next preceding the month of such final distribution specifying (1) the
Final Distribution Date upon which final payment of the Certificates will be
made upon presentation and surrender of Certificates at the office or agency of
the Trustee therein designated, (2) the amount of any such final payment and (3)
that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not
applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the
Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee therein specified. If the
Master Servicer is obligated to give notice to Certificateholders as aforesaid,
it shall give such notice to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar at the
time such notice is given to Certificateholders. In the event such notice is
given by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall deposit in the
Certificate Account on or before the Final Distribution Date in immediately
available funds an amount equal to the amount necessary to make the amount, if
any, on deposit in the Certificate Account on the Final Distribution Date equal
to the purchase price for the related assets of the Trust computed as above
provided together with a statement as to the amount to be distributed on each
Class of Certificates pursuant to the next succeeding paragraph. Not less than
five (5) Business Days prior to the Final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall
notify the Master Servicer of the amount of any unpaid Reimbursement Amount owed
to the Trust and the Master Servicer shall deposit such amount in the
Certificate Account not later than the Business Day preceding the Final
Distribution Date.
Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Trustee
shall cause to be distributed to Certificateholders of each Class, in the order
set forth in Section 5.02 hereof, on the Final Distribution Date and in
proportion to their respective Percentage Interests, with respect to
Certificateholders of the same Class, an amount equal to (I) as to each Class of
Certificates, the Class Certificate Balance thereof plus (a) accrued interest
thereon in the case of an interest bearing Certificate and (b) the applicable
Class PO Deferred Amount with respect to the Class X-PO Components and the Class
15-PO Certificates, and (II) as to the Class 1-A-R Certificate, the amounts, if
any, which remain on deposit in the Certificate Account (other than the amounts
retained to meet claims) after application pursuant to clause (I) above.
If all of the Certificateholders do not surrender their Certificates
for final payment and cancellation on or before the Final Distribution Date, the
Trustee shall on such date cause all funds in the Certificate Account not
distributed in final distribution to Certificateholders of such Group to
continue to be held by the Trustee in an Eligible Account for the benefit of
such Certificateholders and the Master Servicer (if it exercised its right to
purchase the assets of the Trust Estate) 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 one year after the second notice all the

Section 10.02 Additional Termination Requirements.
(a) If the Master 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 has received an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that the failure of the Trust to comply with the requirements of
this Section 10.02 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
the REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding:
(i) within 90 days prior to the Final Distribution Date set forth in
the notice given by the Master Servicer under Section 10.01, the Trustee

Certificateholders). The Trustee shall also specify such date in the final
tax return of the REMIC.
(b) By its acceptance of the Residual Certificate, the Holder
thereof hereby agrees to take such other action in connection with such plan of
complete liquidation as may be reasonably requested by the Depositor, the

ambiguity or mistake, (ii) to correct or supplement any provisions herein or
therein which may be inconsistent with any other provisions of this Agreement,
any amendment to this Agreement or the related Prospectus Supplement, (iii) to
modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be
necessary to maintain the qualification of the REMIC created hereunder as a
REMIC at all times that any Certificates are outstanding or to avoid or minimize
the risk of the imposition of any tax on the REMIC pursuant to the Code that
would be a claim against the Trust Estate, provided that (a) the Trustee has
received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such action is necessary or
desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of the
imposition of any such tax and (b) such action shall not, as evidenced by such
Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of
any Certificateholder, (iv) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits into
the Certificate Account provided that (a) such change shall not, as evidenced by
an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of
any Certificateholder and (b) such change shall not adversely affect the
then-current rating of the Senior Certificates, the Class 30-B-1 Certificates,
the Class 30-B-2 Certificates, the Class 30-B-3 Certificates, the Class 30-B-4
Certificates, the Class 30-B-5 Certificates, the Class 15-B-1 Certificates, the
Class 15-B-2 Certificates, the Class 15-B-3 Certificates, the Class 15-B-4
Certificates or the Class 15-B-5 Certificates, as evidenced by a letter from
each Rating Agency rating such Certificates to such effect, and (v) to make any
other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this
Agreement which shall not be materially inconsistent with the provisions of this
Agreement, provided that such action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of
Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
Certificateholder. An amendment shall not be deemed to adversely affect in any
material respect the interests of the Certificateholders and no Opinion of
Counsel to that effect shall be required if the Person requesting the amendment
obtains a letter from each Rating Agency stating that the amendment would not
result in the downgrading or withdrawal of the respective ratings then assigned
to the Certificates.
This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders
of Certificates of each Class of Certificates which is affected by such
amendment, evidencing, as to each such Class of Certificates, Percentage
Interests aggregating not less than 66-2/3%, 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 such
Certificates; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (A) reduce in any
manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, collections of payments on
Mortgage Loans or distributions which are required to be made on any Certificate
without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate or (B) reduce the
aforesaid percentage required to consent to any such amendment, without the
consent of the Holders of all Certificates then Outstanding.
Prior to the solicitation of consent of Certificateholders in
connection with any such amendment, the party seeking such amendment shall
furnish the Trustee with an Opinion of Counsel stating whether such amendment
would adversely affect the qualification of the Trust Estate as a REMIC and
notice of the conclusion expressed in such Opinion of Counsel shall be included
with any such solicitation. An amendment made with the consent of all
Certificateholders and executed in accordance with this Section 11.01 shall be
permitted or authorized by this Agreement notwithstanding that such Opinion of
Counsel may conclude that such amendment would adversely affect the
qualification of the REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC.
Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent the
Trustee shall make available written notification of the substance of or a copy
of such amendment to each Certificateholder and to 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, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the
substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the
authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to
such reasonable requirements as the Trustee may prescribe.
Section 11.02 Recordation of Agreement. This Agreement is subject to
recordation in all appropriate public offices for real property records in all
the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or all of the
properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and in any other appropriate
public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by the
Master Servicer and at its expense on direction by the Trustee, who will act at
the direction of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 50% of all
Voting Rights, but only upon direction of the Trustee accompanied by an Opinion
of Counsel to the effect that such recordation materially and beneficially
affects the interests of Certificateholders.
For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement as
herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed
simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall
be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and
the same instrument.
Section 11.03 Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders. The death
or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate to terminate this
Agreement or the Trust, nor entitle such Certificateholder's legal
representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or
commence any proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the Trust,
nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties
hereto or any of them.
No Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as
provided herein) 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 construed so
as to constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members
of an association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under any liability to any
third person by reason of any action taken by the parties to this Agreement
pursuant to any provision hereof.
No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue or by availing
itself of any provisions 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 provided herein, and unless also
the Holders of Certificates evidencing Percentage Interests aggregating not less
than 25% of each Class of Certificates affected thereby shall have made written
request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own
name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable
indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be
incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for 60 days after its receipt of
such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to
institute any such action, suit or proceeding; it being understood and intended,
and being expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other
Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates
shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue or by availing itself or
themselves of any provisions of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice
the rights of the Holders of any other of the Certificates, or to obtain or seek
to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce
any right under this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the
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 Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be
given either at law or in equity.

prepaid, at the address of such Holder as shown in the Certificate Register. Any
notice to a Certificateholder so mailed within the time prescribed in this
Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not
the Certificateholder receives such notice.
Section 11.06 Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any
reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements, provisions or
terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements,
provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or
enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement or of the Certificates
or the rights of the Holders thereof.
Section 11.07 Certificates Nonassessable and Fully Paid. It is the
intention of the Trustee that Certificateholders shall not be personally liable
for obligations of the Trust Estate, that the beneficial ownership interests
represented by the Certificates shall be nonassessable for any losses or
expenses of the Trust Estate or for any reason whatsoever, and that Certificates
upon execution, authentication and delivery thereof by the Trustee pursuant to
Section 6.01 are and shall be deemed fully paid.
Section 11.08 Access to List of Certificateholders. The Certificate
Registrar will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee, within 15 days
after the receipt of a request by the Trustee in writing, a list, in such form
as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the
Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date for payment of
distributions to Certificateholders.
If three or more Certificateholders apply in writing to the Trustee,
and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other
Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under
the Certificates and is accompanied by a copy of the communication which such
applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five Business
Days after the receipt of such application, afford such applicants access during
normal business hours to the most recent list of Certificateholders held by the
Trustee. If such a list is as of a date more than 90 days prior to the date of
receipt of such applicants' request, the Trustee shall promptly request from the
Certificate Registrar a current list as provided above, and shall afford such
applicants access to such list promptly upon receipt.
Every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding such list, agrees
with the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee that neither the Certificate
Registrar nor the Trustee shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure
of any such information as to the names and addresses of the Certificateholders
hereunder, regardless of the source from which such information was derived.
Section 11.09 Recharacterization. The parties to this Agreement
intend the conveyance by the Depositor to the Trustee of all of its right, title
and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement to
constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to
the extent that such conveyance is held not to constitute a sale under
applicable law, it is intended that this Agreement shall constitute a security
agreement under applicable law and that the Depositor shall be deemed to have
granted to the Trustee a first priority security interest in all of the
Depositor's right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF ALL CERTIFICATES]
BANC OF AMERICA FUNDING CORPORATION
Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates
designated as Banc of America Funding Corporation Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, of the Series specified on the face hereof (collectively, the
"Certificates"), and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust
created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that
it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the Certificate Account for
payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders
for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, subject to any liability under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and reference is made to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the
interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties
evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.
Pursuant to the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, a
distribution will be made on the 25th day of each calendar month (or, if such
day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day) (each, a "Distribution Date"),
commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the
Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on
the applicable Record Date in an amount required pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. The Record Date applicable to each Distribution Date is the
last Business Day of the month next preceding the month of such Distribution
Date.
On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute out of the
Certificate Account to each Certificateholder of record on the related Record
Date (other than respecting the final distribution) (a) by check mailed to such
Certificateholder entitled to receive a distribution on such Distribution Date
at the address appearing in the Certificate Register, or (b) upon written
request by the Holder of a Regular Certificate, by wire transfer or by such
other means of payment as such Certificateholder and the Trustee shall agree
upon, such Certificateholder's Percentage Interest in the amount to which the
related Class of Certificates is entitled in accordance with the priorities set
forth in Section 5.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The final
distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon
presentation and surrender of such Certificate to the Trustee as contemplated by
Section 10.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The Pooling and Servicing Agreement permits, with certain exceptions
therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master
Servicer, the Representing Party and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders
of Certificates affected by such amendment evidencing the requisite Percentage
Interest, as provided in the Pooling and Servicing 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 therefor or in lieu hereof whether or
not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Pooling and
Servicing 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 Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable
in the Certificate Register of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate
for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee
accompanied by a 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 and evidencing the
same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated
transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without
coupons in denominations specified in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. As
provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new
Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and 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, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, the
Representing Party and the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Master
Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, the Representing Party or the Trustee may
treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Certificate Registrar, the Trustee, the Representing Party or any such agent
shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
On any Distribution Date on which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance
is less than 1% of the aggregate Cut-Off Date Principal Balance, the Master
Servicer will have the option to repurchase, in whole, from the Trust all
remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage
Loans at a purchase price determined as provided in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement. In the event that no such optional repurchase occurs, the obligations
and responsibilities created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement will
terminate upon the later of the maturity or other liquidation (or any advance
with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust or the
disposition of all property in respect thereof and the distribution to
Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed pursuant to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In no event shall the Trust created by the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement 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
thereof.
Any term used herein that is defined in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement shall have the meaning assigned in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, and nothing herein shall be deemed inconsistent with that meaning.

executed.

value, and no current information with respect to the cost of those securities
has been published, in which case the securities were valued at market. Further,
in determining such aggregate amount, the Transferee may have included

status of such third party has been established by the Transferee through one or
more of the appropriate methods contemplated by Rule 144A.
7. The Transferee will notify each of the parties to which this
certification is made of any changes in the information and conclusions herein.
Until such notice is given, the Transferee's purchase of the Transferred
Certificates will constitute a reaffirmation of this certification as of the

parties any updated annual financial statements that become available on or
before the date of such purchase, promptly after they become available.

laws, in which case (i) unless the transfer is made in reliance on Rule 144A
under the 1933 Act, the Trustee or the Depositor may require a written Opinion

substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Depositor that such
transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable

Exhibit G-1 and a certificate from such Certificateholder's prospective
transferee substantially in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing

WITHOUT REGISTRATION THEREOF UNDER THE 1933 ACT MAY ONLY BE MADE IN A

SUBJECT THE DEPOSITOR, THE MASTER SERVICER, THE REPRESENTING PARTY OR THE
TRUSTEE TO ANY OBLIGATION IN ADDITION TO THOSE UNDERTAKEN IN THE POOLING

require registration or qualification of the Transferred Certificates pursuant
thereto. The Transferee will not act, nor has it authorized nor will it
authorize any person to act, in any manner set forth in the foregoing sentence

The undersigned, being first duly sworn, deposes and says as follows:
1. The undersigned is an officer of _______________________________, the
proposed transferee (the "Transferee") of the Class 1-A-R Certificate (the
"Residual Certificate") issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
dated September 30, 2004, (the "Agreement"), relating to the above-referenced

in the Agreement. The Transferee has authorized the undersigned to make this
affidavit on behalf of the Transferee.
2. The Transferee is, as of the date hereof, and will be, as of the date
of the transfer, a Permitted Transferee. The Transferee is acquiring the
Residual Certificate either (i) for its own account or (ii) as nominee, trustee
or agent for another Person who is a Permitted Transferee and has attached
hereto an affidavit from such Person in substantially the same form as this
affidavit. The Transferee has no knowledge that any such affidavit is false.
3. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that (i) a tax will
be imposed on Transfers of the Residual Certificate to Persons that are not
Permitted Transferees; (ii) such tax will be imposed on the transferor, or, if
such transfer is through an agent (which includes a broker, nominee or
middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, on the agent; and
(iii) the Person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability for
the tax if the subsequent Transferee furnished to such Person an affidavit that
such subsequent Transferee is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of
transfer, such Person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is
false.
4. The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that a tax will be
imposed on a "pass-through entity" holding the Certificate if at any time during
the taxable year of the pass-through entity a Person that is not a 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. (For this
purpose, a "pass-through entity" includes a regulated investment company, a real
estate investment trust or common trust fund, a partnership, trust or estate,
and certain cooperatives and, except as may be provided in Treasury Regulations,
persons holding interests in pass-through entities as a nominee for another
Person.)
5. The Transferee has reviewed the provisions of Section 6.02 of the
Agreement and understands the legal consequences of the acquisition of the
Residual Certificate including, without limitation, the restrictions on
subsequent Transfers and the provisions regarding voiding the transfer and
mandatory sales. The Transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and to abide by
the provisions of Section 6.02 of the Agreement and the restrictions noted on
the face of the Certificate. The Transferee understands and agrees that any
breach of any of the representations included herein shall render the transfer
to the Transferee contemplated hereby null and void.
6. The Transferee agrees to require a transfer affidavit in the form of
this Affidavit from any Person to whom the Transferee attempts to transfer the
Residual Certificate, and in connection with any transfer by a Person for whom
the Transferee is acting as nominee, trustee or agent, and the Transferee will
not transfer the Residual Certificate or cause the Residual Certificate to be
transferred to any Person that the Transferee knows is not a Permitted
Transferee.
7. The Transferee historically has paid its debts as they have become due.
8. The Transferee does not have the intention to impede the assessment or
collection of any tax legally required to be paid with respect to the Residual
Certificate.

time by the Servicer through a subservicer, the Servicer shall be entitled to
rely for all purposes hereunder, including for purposes of fulfilling its

procedures be undertaken to further analyze the property, the borrower, or
issues related to the default or foreclosure. Such additional procedures may

counteroffer.

sale at an amount that is more than 15% below the recent market valuation of
that property, the Loss Mitigation Advisor shall provide the Servicer with its

and any director, officer, employee or agent thereof may rely in good faith on

and
WHEREAS, the Custodian has agreed to act as agent for the Trustee
for the purposes of receiving and holding certain documents and other
instruments delivered by the Depositor under the Pooling Agreement, all upon the
terms and conditions and subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the Trustee, the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and the Custodian hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
Definitions
Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein
shall have the meanings assigned in the Pooling Agreement, unless otherwise
required by the context herein.
ARTICLE II
Custody of Mortgage Documents
Section 2.1. Custodian to Act as Agent; Acceptance of Custodial
Files. Subject to Section 2.3 hereof, the Custodian, as the duly appointed agent
of the Trustee for these purposes, declares that it holds and will hold the
documents delivered to it pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling Agreement and
any other documents constituting part of the Mortgage File received on or
subsequent to the date hereof (the "Custodial Files") as agent for the Trustee,
in trust, for the use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.
Section 2.2. Recordation of Assignments. Unless an assignment of a
Mortgage is not required to be recorded in accordance with Section 2.01 of the
Pooling Agreement, if any Custodial File includes one or more assignments to the
Trustee of Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages that have not been recorded,
each such assignment shall be delivered by the Custodian to the Master Servicer
for the purpose of recording it in the appropriate public office for real
property records, and the Master Servicer, at no expense to the Custodian, shall
promptly cause to be recorded in the appropriate public office for real property
records each such assignment and, upon receipt thereof from such public office,
shall return each such assignment to the Custodian.
Section 2.3. Review of Custodial Files. The Custodian agrees, for
the benefit of Certificateholders, to review, in accordance with the provisions
of Section 2.02 of the Pooling Agreement, each Custodial File and to provide the
initial and final certifications in the forms of Exhibits M and N to the Pooling
Agreement in accordance with the provisions thereof. If in performing the review
required by this Section 2.3 the Custodian finds any document or documents
constituting a part of a Custodial File to be missing or defective, the
Custodian shall follow the procedures specified in the Pooling Agreement. The
Custodian shall provide to the Trustee upon request an electronic list of
outstanding exceptions in connection with the initial and final Certification.
Section 2.4. Notification of Breaches of Representations and
Warranties. Upon discovery by the Custodian of a breach of any representation or
warranty made by the Depositor or the Representing Party as set forth in the
Pooling Agreement, the Custodian shall follow the procedures specified in the
Pooling Agreement.
Section 2.5. Custodian to Cooperate; Release of Custodial Files.
Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Master
Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner
customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer shall immediately deliver to
the Custodian two copies of a Request for Release or such request in an
electronic format acceptable to the Custodian and shall request delivery to it
of the Custodial File. The Custodian agrees, within five business days of
receipt of such Request for Release, to release the related Custodial File to
the Master Servicer.
From time to time as is appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure
of any Mortgage Loan, including for this purpose, collection under any Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian
two copies of a Request for Release of a Master Servicing Officer requesting
that possession of the Custodial File be released to the Master Servicer and
certifying as to the reason for such release. Upon receipt of the foregoing, the
Custodian shall deliver the Custodial File to the Master Servicer. The Master
Servicer shall cause each Custodial File therein so released to be returned to
the Custodian when the need therefor by the Master Servicer no longer exists,
unless (i) the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds
relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Certificate Account to
the extent required by the Pooling Agreement or (ii) the Custodial File or such
document has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other
public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal
action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property either
judicially or non-judicially. In the event of the liquidation of a Mortgage
Loan, the Master Servicer shall deliver two copies of a Request for Release with
respect thereto to the Custodian upon deposit of the related Liquidation
Proceeds in the Certificate Account to the extent required by the Pooling
Agreement.
Section 2.6. Assumption Agreements. In the event that any assumption
agreement or substitution of liability agreement is entered into with respect to
any Mortgage Loan subject to this Agreement in accordance with the terms and
provisions of the Pooling Agreement, the Master Servicer shall notify the
Custodian that such assumption or substitution agreement has been completed by
forwarding to the Custodian the original of such assumption or substitution
agreement, which copy shall be added to the related Custodial File and, for all
purposes, shall be considered a part of such Custodial File to the same extent
as all other documents and instruments constituting parts thereof.
ARTICLE III
Concerning the Custodian
Section 3.1. Custodian a Bailee and Agent of the Trustee. With
respect to each Mortgage Note, Mortgage and other documents constituting each
Custodial File which are delivered to the Custodian, the Custodian is
exclusively the bailee and agent of the Trustee, holds such documents for the
benefit of Certificateholders and undertakes to perform such duties and only
such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and in the Pooling
Agreement. All provisions of the Pooling Agreement setting forth duties of the
Custodian in more detail are hereby incorporated by reference into this
Agreement. Except upon compliance with the provisions of Section 2.5 of this
Agreement and the provisions of the Pooling Agreement, no Mortgage Note,
Mortgage or other document constituting a part of a Custodial File shall be
delivered by the Custodian to the Depositor or the Master Servicer or otherwise
released from the possession of the Custodian.
Section 3.2. Indemnification. The Master Servicer hereby agrees to
indemnify and hold the Custodian harmless from and against all claims,
liabilities, losses, actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity, or any
other expenses, fees or charges of any character or nature, which the Custodian
may incur or with which the Custodian may be threatened by reasons of its acting
as custodian under this Agreement, including indemnification of the Custodian
against any and all expenses, including attorney's fees if counsel for the
Custodian has been approved by the Master Servicer, and the cost of defending
any action, suit or proceedings or resisting any claim; provided, however, that
if the Trustee has removed the Custodian in accordance with Section 3.5, the
Trustee and not the Master Servicer shall bear the foregoing indemnification
provisions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is specifically understood and
agreed that in the event any such claim, liability, loss, action, suit or
proceeding or other expense, fees, or charge shall have been caused by reason of
any grossly negligent act, grossly negligent failure to act, or willful
misconduct on the part of the Custodian, or which shall constitute a willful
breach of its duties hereunder, or by any act of the Depositor or the Trustee,
the indemnification provisions of this Agreement shall not apply.
Section 3.3. Custodian May Own Certificates. The Custodian in its
individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates
with the same rights it would have if it were not Custodian.
Section 3.4. Master Servicer to Pay Custodian's Fees and Expenses.
The Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the Custodian from time to
time, and the Custodian shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for all
services rendered by it in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and
duties hereunder of the Custodian, and the Master Servicer will pay or reimburse
the Custodian upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and
advances incurred or made by the Custodian in accordance with any of the
provisions of this Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the
expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not regularly in
its employ), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from
its negligence or bad faith; provided, however, that if the Trustee has removed
the Custodian in accordance with Section 3.5, the Trustee and not the Master
Servicer shall bear the foregoing compensation obligations.
Section 3.5. Custodian May Resign; Trustee May Remove Custodian. The
Custodian may resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed upon it as
such obligations and duties relate to its acting as Custodian of the Mortgage
Loans. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Trustee shall either take
custody of the Custodial Files itself and give prompt notice thereof to the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Custodian or promptly appoint a successor
Custodian by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument
shall be delivered to the resigning Custodian and one copy to the successor
Custodian. If the Trustee shall not have taken custody of the Custodial Files
and no successor Custodian shall have been so appointed and have accepted
resignation, the resigning Custodian may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Custodian.
The Trustee, upon 60 days written notice, may remove the Custodian.
In such event, the Trustee shall appoint, or petition a court of competent
jurisdiction to appoint, a successor Custodian hereunder. Any successor
Custodian shall be a depository institution subject to supervision or
examination by federal or state authority and shall be able to satisfy the other
requirements contained in Section 3.7.
Any resignation or removal of the Custodian and appointment of a
successor Custodian pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 3.5 shall
become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Custodian. The
Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Depositor and the Master Servicer of the
appointment of any successor Custodian. No successor Custodian shall have been
appointed and accepted appointment by the Trustee without the prior approval of
the Depositor and the Master Servicer. Upon the appointment of a successor
Custodian, the Master Servicer may make such arrangements for the compensation
of such successor as it and such successor shall agree, provided however that
such compensations shall not exceed the compensation payable to the Custodian
hereunder.
Section 3.6. Merger or Consolidation of Custodian. Any Person into
which the Custodian may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Custodian shall be a party, or any Person succeeding
to the business of the Custodian, shall be the successor of the Custodian
hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on
the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.
Section 3.7. Representations of the Custodian. The Custodian hereby
represents that it is a depository institution subject to supervision or
examination by a federal or state authority, has a combined capital and surplus
of at least $10,000,000 and is qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in
which it will hold any Custodial File.
ARTICLE IV

and other communications required under this Agreement or pursuant to any other
instrument or document delivered hereunder shall be in writing and, unless
otherwise specifically provided, may be delivered personally, by telegram or
telex, or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt
requested, at the addresses specified on the signature page hereof (unless
changed by the particular party whose address is stated herein by similar notice
in writing), in which case the notice will be deemed delivered when received.
Section 4.2. Amendments. No modification or amendment of or
supplement to this Agreement shall be valid or effective unless the same is in
writing and signed by all parties hereto, and neither the Depositor, the Master
Servicer nor the Trustee shall enter into any amendment hereof except as
permitted by the Pooling Agreement. The Trustee shall give prompt written notice
to the Custodian of any amendment or supplement to the Pooling Agreement and
furnish the Custodian with written copies thereof.
Section 4.3. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT APPLICATION OF THE
CONFLICTS OF LAWS PROVISIONS THEREOF, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES
OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.
Section 4.4. Recordation of Agreement. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, this Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate
public offices for real property records in all the counties or other comparable
jurisdictions in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are
situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere,
such recordation to be effected by the Master Servicer and at its expense on
direction by the Trustee, but only upon direction accompanied by an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such recordation materially and beneficially affects
the interests of the Certificateholders.
For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement as
herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed
simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall
be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and
the same instrument.
Section 4.5. Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any
reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements, provisions or
terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements,
provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or
enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement or of the Certificates
or the rights of the holders thereof.
Section 4.6 Limitations on the Responsibilities of the Custodian.
1. Except as provided in this Agreement (including references made
herein to the Pooling Agreement), the Custodian shall be under no duty or
obligation to inspect, review or examine the Mortgage Files to determine that
the contents thereof are appropriate for the represented purpose or that they
have been actually recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be
on their face.
2. Any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Custodian shall have no notice, and shall not be bound by
any of the terms and conditions of any other document or agreement executed or
delivered in connection with, or intended to control any part of, the
transactions anticipated by or referred to in this Agreement unless the
Custodian is a signatory party to that document or agreement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing sentence, the Custodian shall be deemed to have notice of the
terms and conditions (including without limitation definitions not otherwise set
forth in full in this Agreement) of other documents and agreements executed or
delivered in connection with, or intended to control any part of, the
transactions anticipated by or referred to in this Agreement, and shall be bound
by any such terms and conditions to the extent such terms and conditions are
referenced, or are incorporated by reference, into this Agreement.
3. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to impose on the
Custodian any duty to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction, other than (i)
any jurisdiction where any Custodial File is or may be held by the Custodian
from time to time hereunder, and (ii) any jurisdiction where its ownership of
property or conduct of business requires such qualification and where failure to
qualify could have a material adverse effect (a) on the Custodian or its
property or business or (b) on the ability of the Custodian to perform any of
its duties under this Agreement.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Agreement is executed the date first above
written.
