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.

(b) In connection with such transfer and assignment, the Depositor has delivered or caused to be delivered to 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 , as Trustee, 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);

(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 “ , as trustee for the holders of the Wachovia Mortgage Loan Trust, Xxx.XXX Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 200 - Certificates” (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,

-25-

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 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 Co-op Shares, the originals of the following documents or instruments:

(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).

-26-

provided, however, that on the Closing Date, with respect to item (iii), the Depositor has delivered to the Trustee a copy of such Assignment of Mortgage in blank and has caused the 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). As 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.

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 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 Trustee or 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 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 Servicer to the Trustee or 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 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 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 Servicer has not received the information required to prepare such assignment in recordable form, the

-27-

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.

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 Trustee, or the Custodian on the Trustee’s behalf, will cause the Servicer to deposit in the Servicer Custodial Account the portion of such payment that is required to be deposited in the Servicer Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.08.

Section 2.02. Acceptance by the Trustee 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.

Within 90 days after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Trustee shall review, or cause the Custodian to review, the Mortgage Files in its possession. If, in the course of such review, the Trustee or 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 Trustee shall promptly so notify the Servicer and the Depositor, or shall cause the Custodian to promptly so notify the Servicer and the Depositor. In performing any such review, the Trustee or 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 Trustee’s or 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. 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 Repurchase 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

-28-

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 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 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 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. Upon any such substitution and the deposit to the Servicer Custodial Account of any required Substitution Adjustment Amount (as described in the next paragraph) and receipt of a Request for Release, the Trustee shall release, or shall direct the Custodian to 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 as of the date of substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all such Defective Mortgage Loans (after application of the principal portion of the Monthly Payments due in the month of substitution) (the “Substitution Adjustment Amount”) 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 Trustee shall retain or 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 Servicer shall promptly deliver to the Trustee, upon the execution or, in the case of documents requiring recording, receipt thereof, the originals of such other documents or

-29-

instruments constituting the Mortgage File as come into the 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.

The Trustee or the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall be under no 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) and (viii).

Section 2.03. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Servicer.

The Servicer hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Depositor and the Trustee, as of the Closing Date:

(i) The Servicer is a national banking association duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the federal laws of the United States of America 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 Servicer. The 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 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 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 the rights of creditors 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 Servicer to make this Agreement valid and binding upon the 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 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 Servicer and will not result in the breach of

-30-

any term or provision of the charter or by-laws of the 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 Servicer or its property is subject, or result in the violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree to which the Servicer or its property is subject.

(iv) There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the best knowledge of the Servicer, threatened against the 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 Servicer, or in any material impairment of the right or ability of the 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 Servicer contemplated herein, or which would materially impair the ability of the Servicer to perform under the terms of this Agreement.

The representations and warranties made pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders.

Section 2.04. Representations and Warranties of the Depositor as to the Mortgage Loans.

The Depositor 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 is true and correct in all material respects.

(ii) There are no delinquent taxes, ground rents, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, leasehold payments, including assessments payable in future installments or other outstanding charges affecting the lien priority of the related Mortgaged Property.

(iii) The terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written instruments, recorded in the applicable public recording office if necessary to maintain the lien priority of the Mortgage, and which have been delivered to the Trustee; the substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the insurer under the Primary Insurance Policy, if any, the title insurer, to the extent required by the related policy, and is reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. No instrument of waiver, alteration or modification has been executed, and no Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the insurer under the Primary Insurance Policy, if any, the title insurer, to the extent required by the policy, and which assumption agreement has been delivered to the Trustee.

-31-

(iv) The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render either the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto.

(v) All buildings upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by an insurer generally acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary in the area the Mortgaged Property is located, pursuant to insurance policies conforming to the requirements of Customary Servicing Procedures and this Agreement. All such insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the originator of the Mortgage Loan, its successors and assigns as mortgagee and all premiums thereon have been paid. If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified on a flood hazard map or flood insurance rate map issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such flood insurance has been made available), a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration is in effect which policy conforms to the requirements of FNMA or FHLMC. The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to maintain such insurance at Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor.

(vi) Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury, truth in lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protections, equal credit opportunity or disclosure laws applicable to the origination and servicing of Mortgage Loan have been complied with.

(vii) The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part (other than as to Principal Prepayments in full which may have been received prior to the Closing Date), and the Mortgaged Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any instrument been executed that would effect any such satisfaction, cancellation, subordination, rescission or release.

(viii) The Mortgage is a valid, existing and enforceable first lien on the Mortgaged Property, including all improvements on the Mortgaged Property subject only to (A) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable, (B) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording being acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in the lender’s title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Mortgage Loan and which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property, (C) if the Mortgaged Property consists of Co-op Shares, any lien for amounts due to the cooperative housing corporation for unpaid assessments or charges or any lien of any assignment of rents or maintenance expenses secured by the real property owned by the cooperative housing corporation, and (D) other matters to

-32-

which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property. Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, existing and enforceable first lien and first priority security interest on the property described therein and the Depositor has the full right to sell and assign the same to the Trustee.

(ix) The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are genuine and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof, enforceable in accordance with its terms except as enforceability may be limited by (A) bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, receivership, moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of the rights of creditors and (B) general principles of equity, whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law.

(x) All parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, and the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have been duly and properly executed by such parties.

(xi) The proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed to or for the account of the Mortgagor and there is no obligation for the Mortgagee to advance additional funds thereunder and any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or off-site improvements and as to disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have been complied with. All costs fees and expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the Mortgage have been paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due to the Mortgagee pursuant to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage.

(xii) To the best of the Depositor’s knowledge, all parties which have had any interest in the Mortgage Loan, whether as mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the period in which they held and disposed of such interest, were) in compliance with any and all applicable “doing business” and licensing requirements of the laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged Property is located.

(xiii) The Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy, acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC, issued by a title insurer acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring (subject to the exceptions contained in (viii)(A) and (B) above) the Seller, its successors and assigns as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan. The Depositor is the sole insured of such lender’s title insurance policy, and such lender’s title insurance policy is in full force and effect and will be in full force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No claims have been made under such lender’s title insurance policy, and the Depositor has not done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such lender’s title insurance policy.

-33-

(xiv) There is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, and the Seller has not waived any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration.

(xv) As of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan, there had been no mechanics’ or similar liens or claims filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under law could give rise to such lien) affecting the relating Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the lien of the related Mortgage.

(xvi) All improvements which were considered in determining the Appraised Value of the related Mortgaged Property lay wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property.

(xvii) The Mortgage Loan was originated by a commercial bank or similar banking institution which is supervised and examined by a federal or state authority, or by a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of HUD.

(xviii) Principal payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced no more than sixty days after the proceeds of the Mortgaged Loan were disbursed. The Mortgage Loans are 30-year fixed rate mortgage loans having an original term to maturity of not more than 30 years, with interest payable in arrears on the first day of the month. Each Mortgage Note requires a monthly payment which is sufficient to fully amortize the original principal balance over the original term thereof and to pay interest at the related Mortgage Interest Rate. The Mortgage Note does not permit negative amortization.

(xix) There is no proceeding pending or, to the Depositor’s knowledge, threatened for the total or partial condemnation of the Mortgaged Property and such property is in good repair and is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth movement, windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty, so as to affect adversely the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan or the use for which the premises were intended.

(xx) The Mortgage and related Mortgage Note contain customary and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security provided thereby, including (A) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee’s sale, and (B) otherwise by judicial foreclosure. To the best of the Depositor’s knowledge, following the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgaged Property has not been subject to any bankruptcy proceeding or foreclosure proceeding and the Mortgagor has not filed for protection under applicable bankruptcy laws. There is no homestead or other exemption or right available to the Mortgagor or any other person which would interfere with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee’s sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage.

-34-

(xxi) The Mortgage Note and Mortgage are on forms acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC.

(xxii) The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage on the Mortgaged Property and the security interest of any applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage referred to in (viii) above.

(xxiii) The Mortgage File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property, in a form acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC and such appraisal complies with the requirements of FIRREA, and was made and signed, prior to the approval of the Mortgage Loan application, by a Qualified Appraiser.

(xxiv) In the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been properly designated and currently so serves, and no fees or expenses are or will become payable by the Trustee to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee’s sale after default by the Mortgagor.

(xxv) No Mortgage Loan is a graduated payment mortgage loan, no Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation or other contingent interest feature, and no Mortgage Loan contains any “buydown” provision.

(xxvi) The Mortgagor has received all disclosure materials required by applicable law with respect to the making of mortgage loans of the same type as the Mortgage Loan and rescission materials required by applicable law if the Mortgage Loan is a Refinance Mortgage Loan.

(xxvii) Each Mortgage Loan with a Loan-to-Value Ratio at origination in excess of 80% will be subject to a Primary Insurance Policy, issued by an insurer acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC, which insures that portion of the Mortgage Loan in excess of the portion of the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property required by FNMA. All provisions of such Primary Insurance Policy have been and are being complied with, such policy is in full force and effect, and all premiums due thereunder have been paid. Any Mortgage subject to any such Primary Insurance Policy obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain such insurance and to pay all premiums and charges in connection therewith at least until Loan-to-Value Ratio of such Mortgage Loan is reduced to less than 80%. The Mortgage Interest Rate for the Mortgage Loan does not include any such insurance premium.

(xxxiii) Any future advances made prior to the Cut-Off Date have been consolidated with the outstanding principal amount secured by the Mortgage, and the secured principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single interest rate and single repayment term. The lien of the Mortgage securing the consolidated principal amount is expressly insured as having first lien priority by a title insurance policy, an endorsement to the policy insuring the mortgagee’s consolidated interest or by other title evidence acceptable to FNMA and FHLMC.

In addition, no representations or warranties are made by the Depositor with respect to the absence or effect of fraud in the origination of any Mortgage Loan.

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 Trustee or the Custodian and shall inure to the benefit of the Trustee, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement or assignment.

Upon discovery by either the Depositor, the 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

-37-

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 Depositor 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 Repurchase Price or (ii) if within two years of the Closing Date, substitute for such Mortgage Loan in the manner described in Section 2.02; provided that if the breach would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a “qualified mortgage” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such repurchase or substitution must occur within 90 days from the date the breach was discovered. The Repurchase Price of any repurchase described in this paragraph and the Substitution Adjustment Amount, if any, shall be deposited in the Certificate Account. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Depositor 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.

Section 2.05. Designation of Interests in the REMIC. The Depositor hereby designates the Classes of Class A Certificates (other than the Class A-R and Class A-LR Certificates) and the Classes of Class B Certificates as classes of “regular interests” and the Class A-R Certificate as the single class of “residual interest” in the Upper-Tier REMIC for the purposes of Code Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860G(a)(2), respectively.

ARTICLE III

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING

OF MORTGAGE LOANS

Section 3.01. Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans. For and on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans, all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Customary Servicing Procedures, applicable law and the terms of the Mortgage Notes and Mortgages. In connection with such servicing and administration, the Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone and/or through Subservicers as provided in Section 3.02, to do or cause to be done any and all things that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such servicing and administration including, but not limited to, the power and authority, subject to the terms hereof, (a) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents, (b) to consent, with respect to the Mortgage Loans it services, to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages (but only in the manner provided in this Agreement), (c) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and other Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loans it services, and (d) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan it services. The Servicer shall represent and protect the interests of the Trust in the same manner as it protects its own interests in mortgage loans in its own portfolio in any claim, proceeding or litigation regarding a Mortgage Loan and shall not make or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan, except as provided pursuant to Section 3.21. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer, in its own name or in the name of any Subservicer or the Depositor and the Trustee, is hereby authorized and empowered by the Depositor and the Trustee, when the Servicer or any Subservicer, as the case may be, believes it appropriate in its reasonable judgment, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans it services, and with respect to the related Mortgaged Properties held for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Servicer shall prepare and deliver to the Depositor and/or the Trustee such documents requiring execution and delivery by either or both of them as are necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans it services to the extent that the Servicer is not permitted to execute and deliver such documents pursuant to the preceding sentence. Upon receipt of such documents, the Depositor and/or the Trustee, upon the direction of the Servicer, shall promptly execute such documents and deliver them to the Servicer.

In accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph, the Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary for the purpose of effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties relating to the Mortgage Loans it services, which Servicing Advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.09, and further as provided in Section 3.11. The costs incurred by the Servicer, if any, in effecting the timely payments of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties and related insurance premiums shall not, for the purpose of calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders, be added to the Stated Principal Balances of the related Mortgage Loans, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loans so permit.

-39-

The relationship of the Servicer (and of any successor to the Servicer as servicer under this Agreement) to the Trustee under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent.

Section 3.02. Subservicing; Enforcement of the Obligations of Servicer.

(a) The Servicer may arrange for the subservicing of any Mortgage Loan it services by a Subservicer pursuant to a Subservicing Agreement; provided, however, that such subservicing arrangement and the terms of the related Subservicing Agreement must provide for the servicing of such Mortgage Loan in a manner consistent with the servicing arrangements contemplated hereunder. Notwithstanding the provisions of any Subservicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a Subservicer or reference to actions taken through a Subservicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain obligated and liable to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans it services in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Subservicing Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering those Mortgage Loans. All actions of each Subservicer performed pursuant to the related Subservicing Agreement shall be performed as agent of the Servicer with the same force and effect as if performed directly by the Servicer.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received any collections, recoveries or payments with respect to the Mortgage Loans it services that are received by a Subservicer regardless of whether such payments are remitted by the Subservicer to the Servicer.

(c) As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall use its best reasonable efforts to enforce the obligations of each Subservicer engaged by the Servicer under the related Subservicing Agreement, to the extent that the non-performance of any such obligation would have a material and adverse effect on a Mortgage Loan. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Subservicing Agreements and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, and shall be reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in respect of the related Mortgage Loan or (ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys fees against the party against whom such enforcement is directed.

(d) Any Subservicing Agreement entered into by the Servicer shall provide that it may be assumed or terminated by the Trustee, if the Trustee has assumed the duties of the Servicer, or any successor Servicer, at the Trustee’s or successor Servicer’s option, as applicable, without cost or obligation to the assuming or terminating party or the Trust Estate, upon the assumption by such party of the obligations of the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.05.

-40-

Any Subservicing Agreement, and any other transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Subservicer, shall be deemed to be between the Servicer and such Subservicer alone, and the Trustee and the Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims or rights of action against, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities to or with respect to the Subservicer or its officers, directors or employees, except as set forth in Section 3.01.

Section 3.03. Fidelity Bond; Errors and Omissions Insurance.

The Servicer shall maintain, at its own expense, a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, with broad coverage on all officers, employees or other persons acting in any capacity requiring such persons to handle funds, money, documents or papers relating to the Mortgage Loans it services. These policies must insure the Servicer against losses resulting from dishonest or fraudulent acts committed by the Servicer’s personnel, any employees of outside firms that provide data processing services for the Servicer, and temporary contract employees or student interns. Such fidelity bond shall also protect and insure the Servicer against losses in connection with the release or satisfaction of a Mortgage Loan without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured thereby. No provision of this Section 3.03 requiring such fidelity bond and errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. The minimum coverage under any such bond and insurance policy shall be at least equal to the corresponding amounts required by FNMA in the FNMA Servicing Guide or by FHLMC in the FHLMC Sellers’ & Servicers’ Guide, as amended or restated from time to time, or in an amount as may be permitted to the Servicer by express waiver of FNMA or FHLMC.

Section 3.04. Access to Certain Documentation.

The Servicer shall provide to the OTS and the FDIC and to comparable regulatory authorities supervising Holders of Subordinate Certificates and the examiners and supervisory agents of the OTS, the FDIC and such other authorities, access to the documentation required by applicable regulations of the OTS and the FDIC with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable and prior written request and during normal business hours at the offices designated by the Servicer. Nothing in this Section 3.04 shall limit the obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law and the failure of the Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section 3.04 as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.04.

Section 3.05. Maintenance of Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy; Claims.

With respect to each Mortgage Loan with a Loan-to-Value Ratio in excess of 80% or such other Loan-to-Value Ratio as may be required by law, the Servicer responsible for servicing such Mortgage Loan shall, without any cost to the Trust Estate, maintain or cause the Mortgagor to maintain in full force and effect a Primary Insurance Policy insuring that portion of the Mortgage Loan in excess of a percentage in conformity with FNMA requirements. The Servicer shall pay or shall cause the Mortgagor to pay the premium thereon on a timely basis, at least until the Loan-to-Value Ratio of such Mortgage Loan is reduced to 80% or such other Loan-to-Value Ratio as may be required by law. If such Primary Insurance Policy is terminated,

-41-

the Servicer shall obtain from another insurer a comparable replacement policy, with a total coverage equal to the remaining coverage of such terminated Primary Insurance Policy. If the insurer shall cease to be an insurer acceptable to FNMA, the Servicer shall notify the Trustee in writing, it being understood that the Servicer shall not have any responsibility or liability for any failure to recover under the Primary Insurance Policy for such reason. If the Servicer determines that recoveries under the Primary Insurance Policy are jeopardized by the financial condition of the insurer, the Servicer shall obtain from another insurer which meets the requirements of this Section 3.05 a replacement insurance policy. The Servicer shall not take any action that would result in noncoverage under any applicable Primary Insurance Policy of any loss that, but for the actions of the Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. In connection with any assumption or substitution agreement entered into or to be entered into pursuant to Section 3.13, the Servicer shall promptly notify the insurer under the related Primary Insurance Policy, if any, of such assumption or substitution of liability in accordance with the terms of such Primary Insurance Policy and shall take all actions which may be required by such insurer as a condition to the continuation of coverage under such Primary Insurance Policy. If such Primary Insurance Policy is terminated as a result of such assumption or substitution of liability, the Servicer shall obtain a replacement Primary Insurance Policy as provided above.

In connection with its activities as servicer, the Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any Primary Insurance Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such Primary Insurance Policy and, in this regard, to take such action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Insurance Policy respecting a defaulted Mortgage Loan. Pursuant to Section 3.09(a), any amounts collected by the Servicer under any Primary Insurance Policy shall be deposited in the related Escrow Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.09(b).

The Servicer will comply with all provisions of applicable state and federal law relating to the cancellation of, or collection of premiums with respect to, Primary Mortgage Insurance, including, but not limited to, the provisions of the Homeowners Protection Act of 1998, and all regulations promulgated thereunder, as amended from time to time.

Section 3.06. Rights of the Depositor and the Trustee in Respect of the Servicer.

The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Servicer hereunder and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Servicer hereunder and in connection with any such defaulted obligation to exercise the related rights of the Servicer hereunder; provided that the 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 Servicer nor shall the Trustee or the Depositor be obligated to supervise the performance of the Servicer hereunder or otherwise.

Any Subservicing Agreement that may be entered into and any transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Subservicer in its capacity as such shall be deemed to be between the Subservicer and the Servicer alone, and the Trustee and Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the Subservicer except as set forth in Section 3.07. The Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any Subservicer, irrespective of whether the Servicer’s compensation pursuant to this Agreement is sufficient to pay such fees.

-42-

Section 3.07. Trustee to Act as Servicer.

If the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Servicer hereunder (including by reason of an Event of Default), the Trustee shall thereupon assume, if it so elects, or shall appoint a successor Servicer to assume, all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer hereunder arising thereafter (except that the Trustee shall not be (a) liable for losses of the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12 or any acts or omissions of the predecessor Servicer hereunder, (b) obligated to make Advances if it is prohibited from doing so by applicable law or (c) deemed to have made any representations and warranties of the Servicer hereunder). Any such assumption shall be subject to Section 7.02. If the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Servicer (including by reason of any Event of Default), the Trustee or the successor Servicer may elect to succeed to any rights and obligations of the Servicer under each Subservicing Agreement or may terminate each Subservicing Agreement. If it has elected to assume the Subservicing Agreement, the Trustee or the successor Servicer shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Servicer’s interest therein and to have replaced the Servicer as a party to any Subservicing Agreement entered into by the Servicer as contemplated by Section 3.02 to the same extent as if the Subservicing Agreement had been assigned to the assuming party except that the Servicer shall not be relieved of any liability or obligations under any such Subservicing Agreement.

The Servicer that is no longer the Servicer hereunder shall, upon request of the Trustee, but at the expense of the Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to each Subservicing Agreement or substitute servicing agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced thereunder and an accounting of amounts collected or held by it and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of such substitute Subservicing Agreement to the assuming party.

Section 3.08. Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments; Servicer Custodial Account; Certificate Account; and Upper-Tier Certificate Account.

(a) Continuously from the date hereof until the principal and interest on all Mortgage Loans are paid in full, the Servicer will proceed diligently, in accordance with this Agreement, to collect all payments due under each of the Mortgage Loans it services when the same shall become due and payable. Further, the Servicer will in accordance with all applicable law and Customary Servicing Procedures ascertain and estimate taxes, assessments, fire and hazard insurance premiums, mortgage insurance premiums and all other charges with respect to the Mortgage Loans it services that, as provided in any Mortgage, will become due and payable to the end that the installments payable by the Mortgagors will be sufficient to pay such charges as and when they become due and payable. Consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or any prepayment charge or penalty interest in connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan it services and (ii) extend the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period not greater than 120 days; provided, however, that the Servicer cannot extend the maturity of any such Mortgage Loan past the date on which the final payment is due on the latest maturing Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-Off Date. In the event of any such arrangement, the Servicer shall make Periodic Advances on the related

-43-

Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.20 during the scheduled period in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements. The Servicer shall not be required to institute or join in litigation with respect to collection of any payment (whether under a Mortgage, Mortgage Note or otherwise or against any public or governmental authority with respect to a taking or condemnation) if it reasonably believes that enforcing the provision of the Mortgage or other instrument pursuant to which such payment is required is prohibited by applicable law.

(b) The Servicer shall establish and maintain the Servicer Custodial Account. The Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited into the Servicer Custodial Account, all on a daily basis within one Business Day of receipt, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the following payments and collections remitted by Subservicers or received by the Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans subsequent to the Cut-Off Date (other than in respect of principal and interest due on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-Off Date) and the following amounts required to be deposited hereunder with respect to the Mortgage Loans it services:

(i) all payments on account of principal of the Mortgage Loans, including Principal Prepayments;

(ii) all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans, net of the Servicing Fee;

(iii) (A) all Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds, other than Insurance Proceeds to be (1) applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property, (2) released to the Mortgagor in accordance with Customary Servicing Procedures or (3) required to be deposited to an Escrow Account pursuant to Section 3.09(a) and (B) any Insurance Proceeds released from an Escrow Account pursuant to Section 3.09(b)(iv);

(iv) any amount required to be deposited by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.08(d) in connection with any losses on Permitted Investments with respect to the Servicer Custodial Account;

(v) any amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.14;

(vi) all Repurchase Prices and all Substitution Adjustment Amounts received by the Servicer;

(vii) Periodic Advances made by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.20 and any payments of Compensating Interest; and

(viii)

any other amounts required to be deposited hereunder.

The foregoing requirements for deposits to the Servicer Custodial Account by the Servicer shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of prepayment penalties, late payment charges or assumption fees, if collected, need not be deposited by the Servicer. If the Servicer shall deposit

-44-

in the Servicer Custodial Account any amount not required to be deposited, it may at any time withdraw or direct the institution maintaining the Servicer Custodial Account to withdraw such amount from the Servicer Custodial Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The Servicer Custodial Account may contain funds that belong to one or more trust funds created for mortgage pass-through certificates of other series and may contain other funds respecting payments on mortgage loans belonging to the Servicer or serviced by the Servicer on behalf of others. Notwithstanding such commingling of funds, the Servicer shall keep records that accurately reflect the funds on deposit in the Servicer Custodial Account that have been identified by it as being attributable to the Mortgage Loans it services. The Servicer shall maintain adequate records with respect to all withdrawals made pursuant to this Section 3.08. All funds required to be deposited in the Servicer Custodial Account shall be held in trust for the Certificateholders until withdrawn in accordance with Section 3.11.

(c) The Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the Certificateholders, the 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 Servicer to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(viii);

(ii) any amount paid by the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.08(d) in connection with any losses on Permitted Investments with respect to the Certificate Account; and

(iii) any other amounts deposited hereunder which are required to be deposited in the Certificate Account.

If the Servicer shall remit any amount not required to be remitted, it may at any time direct the Trustee to withdraw such amount from the Certificate Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Such direction may be accomplished by delivering an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee which describes the amounts deposited in error in the Certificate Account. All funds required to be deposited in the Certificate Account shall be held by the Trustee in trust for the Certificateholders until disbursed in accordance with this Agreement or withdrawn in accordance with Section 3.11. In no event shall the Trustee incur liability for withdrawals from the Certificate Account at the direction of a the Servicer.

(d) Each institution at which the Servicer Custodial Account or the Certificate Account is maintained shall invest the funds therein as directed in writing by the Servicer in Permitted Investments, which shall mature not later than (i) in the case of the Servicer Custodial Account, the Business Day next preceding the related Remittance Date (except that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the institution that maintains such account, then such Permitted Investment shall mature not later than such Remittance Date) and (ii) in the case of the Certificate Account, the Business Day next preceding the Distribution Date (except that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the institution that maintains such account, then such Permitted Investment shall mature not later than such Distribution Date) and, in each case, shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All such Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders. All income or gain (net of any losses) realized from any such investment of funds on deposit in the Servicer Custodial Account

-45-

shall be for the benefit of the Servicer as servicing compensation and shall be retained by it monthly as provided herein. All income or gain (net of any losses) realized from any such investment of funds on deposit in the Certificate Account shall be for the benefit of the Trustee as additional compensation and shall be retained by it monthly as provided herein. The amount of any losses realized in the Servicer Custodial Account or the Certificate Account incurred in any such account in respect of any such investments shall promptly be deposited by the Servicer in the Servicer Custodial Account or by the Trustee in the Certificate Account, as applicable.

(e) The Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee of any proposed change of the location of the Servicer Custodial Account maintained by the Servicer not later than 30 days and not more than 45 days prior to any change thereof. The Trustee shall give notice to the Servicer, each Rating Agency and the Depositor of any proposed change of the location of the Certificate Account not later than 30 days and not more than 45 days prior to any change thereof. The creation of the Servicer Custodial Account shall be evidenced by a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto. A copy of such certification shall be furnished to the Trustee.

(f) The Trustee shall establish and maintain the Upper-Tier Certificate Account. On each Distribution Date (other than the Final Distribution Date, if such Final Distribution Date is in connection with a purchase of the assets of the Trust Estate by the Depositor), the Trustee shall, from funds available on deposit in the Certificate Account, deposit, in immediately available funds, by wire transfer or otherwise, into the Upper-Tier Certificate Account, the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount.

Section 3.09. Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Escrow Accounts.

(a) To the extent required by the related Mortgage Note and not violative of current law, the Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to each Mortgage Loan which constitute Escrow Payments in trust separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and for such purpose shall establish and maintain one or more escrow accounts (collectively, the “Escrow Account”), titled “[Insert name of Servicer], in trust for registered holders of Wachovia Mortgage Loan Trust, LLC Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 200 - and various Mortgagors.” The Escrow Account shall be established with a commercial bank, a savings bank or a savings and loan association that meets the guidelines set forth by FNMA or FHLMC as an eligible institution for escrow accounts and which is a member of the Automated Clearing House. In any case, the Escrow Account shall be insured by the FDIC to the fullest extent permitted by law. The Servicer shall deposit in the appropriate Escrow Account on a daily basis, and retain therein: (i) all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage Loans, (ii) all amounts representing proceeds of any hazard insurance policy which are to be applied to the restoration or repair of any related Mortgaged Property and (iii) all amounts representing proceeds of any Primary Insurance Policy. Nothing herein shall require the Servicer to compel a Mortgagor to establish an Escrow Account in violation of applicable law.

(b) Withdrawals of amounts so collected from the Escrow Accounts may be made by the Servicer only (i) to effect timely payment of taxes, assessments, mortgage insurance premiums, fire and hazard insurance premiums, condominium or PUD association dues, or

-46-

comparable items constituting Escrow Payments for the related Mortgage, (ii) to reimburse the Servicer out of related Escrow Payments made with respect to a Mortgage Loan for any Servicing Advance made by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.09(c) with respect to such Mortgage Loan, (iii) to refund to any Mortgagor any sums determined to be overages, (iv) for transfer to the Servicer Custodial Account upon default of a Mortgagor or in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan and if permitted by applicable law, (v) for application to restore or repair the Mortgaged Property, (vi) to pay to the Mortgagor, to the extent required by law, any interest paid on the funds deposited in the Escrow Account, (vii) to pay to itself any interest earned on funds deposited in the Escrow Account (and not required to be paid to the Mortgagor), (viii) to the extent permitted under the terms of the related Mortgage Note and applicable law, to pay late fees with respect to any Monthly Payment which is received after the applicable grace period, (ix) to withdraw suspense payments that are deposited into the Escrow Account, (x) to withdraw any amounts inadvertently deposited in the Escrow Account or (xi) to clear and terminate the Escrow Account upon the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.01. Any Escrow Account shall not be a part of the Trust Estate.

(c) With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall maintain accurate records reflecting the status of taxes, assessments and other charges which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the status of Primary Insurance Policy premiums and fire and hazard insurance coverage. The Servicer shall obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such charges (including renewal premiums) and shall effect payment thereof prior to the applicable penalty or termination date and at a time appropriate for securing maximum discounts allowable, employing for such purpose deposits of the Mortgagor in the Escrow Account, if any, which shall have been estimated and accumulated by the Servicer in amounts sufficient for such purposes, as allowed under the terms of the Mortgage. To the extent that a Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall determine that any such payments are made by the Mortgagor. The Servicer assumes full responsibility for the timely payment of all such bills and shall effect timely payments of all such bills irrespective of each Mortgagor’s faithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments. The Servicer shall advance any such payments that are not timely paid, but the Servicer shall be required so to advance only to the extent that such Servicing Advances, in the good faith judgment of the Servicer, will be recoverable by the Servicer out of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or otherwise.

Section 3.10. Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the Mortgage Loans.

The Servicer shall afford the Trustee reasonable access to all records and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans and all accounts, insurance information and other matters relating to this Agreement, such access being afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the office designated by the Servicer.

Upon reasonable advance notice in writing, the Servicer will provide to each Certificateholder which is a savings and loan association, bank or insurance company certain reports and reasonable access to information and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans sufficient to permit such Certificateholder to comply with applicable regulations of the OTS or other regulatory authorities with respect to investment in the Certificates; provided that the

-47-

Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed by each such Certificateholder for actual expenses incurred by the Servicer in providing such reports and access.

Section 3.11. Permitted Withdrawals from the Servicer Custodial Account; Certificate Account and Upper-Tier Certificate Account.

(a) The Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the Servicer Custodial Account, for the following purposes:

(i) to pay to the Servicer (to the extent not previously retained), the servicing compensation to which it is entitled pursuant to Section 3.17, and to pay to the Servicer, as additional servicing compensation, earnings on or investment income with respect to funds in or credited to the Servicer Custodial Account;

(ii) to reimburse the Servicer for unreimbursed Advances made by it, such right of reimbursement pursuant to this clause (ii) being limited to amounts received on the Mortgage Loan(s) in respect of which any such Advance was made;

(iii) to reimburse the Servicer for any Nonrecoverable Advance previously made;

(iv) to reimburse the Servicer for Insured Expenses from the related Insurance Proceeds;

(v) to pay to the purchaser, with respect to each Mortgage Loan or REO Property that has been purchased pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.04, all amounts received thereon after the date of such purchase;

(vi) to reimburse the Servicer or the Depositor for expenses incurred by any of them and reimbursable pursuant to Section 7.03;

(vii) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Servicer Custodial Account and not required to be deposited therein;

(viii) on or prior to the Remittance Date, to withdraw an amount equal to the related Pool Distribution Amount, the related Trustee Fee and any other amounts due to the Trustee under this Agreement for such Distribution Date, to the extent on deposit, and remit such amount in immediately available funds to the Trustee for deposit in the Certificate Account; and

(ix) to clear and terminate the Servicer Custodial Account upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01.

The Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Servicer Custodial Account pursuant to clauses (i), (ii), (iv) and (v). Prior to making any withdrawal from the Servicer Custodial Account pursuant to clause (iii), the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate of a Servicing Officer indicating the amount of any previous Advance

-48-

determined by the Servicer to be a Nonrecoverable Advance and identifying the related Mortgage Loan(s) and their respective portions of such Nonrecoverable Advance.

(b) The Trustee shall withdraw funds from the Certificate Account 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 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 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 the Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Regular Certificates and the Class A-R Certificate shall not receive distributions directly from the Certificate Account. On each Distribution Date, funds on deposit in the Upper-Tier Certificate Account shall be used to make payments on the Regular Certificates and the Class A-R Certificate as provided in Sections 5.01 and 5.02. The Upper-Tier Certificate Account shall be cleared and terminated upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01.

Section 3.12. Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.

The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan, fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (a) the full insurable value of the Mortgaged Property or (b) the greater of (i) the outstanding principal balance owing on the Mortgage Loan and (ii) an amount such that the proceeds of such insurance shall be sufficient to avoid the application to the Mortgagor or loss payee of any coinsurance clause under the policy. If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such flood insurance has been made available) the Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration and the requirements of FNMA or FHLMC. The Servicer shall also maintain on REO Property, fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property, liability insurance and, to the extent required, flood insurance in an amount required above. Any amounts collected by the Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be deposited in an Escrow Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the related Mortgage or property acquired in liquidation of the Mortgage Loan, or to be released to the Mortgagor in accordance with Customary Servicing Procedures) shall be deposited in the Servicer Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.11(a). It is understood and agreed that no earthquake

-49-

or other additional insurance need be required by the Servicer of any Mortgagor or maintained on REO Property, other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance. All policies required hereunder shall be endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses with loss payable to the Servicer, and shall provide for at least 30 days prior written notice of any cancellation, reduction in amount or material change in coverage to the Servicer.

The hazard insurance policies for each Mortgage Loan secured by a unit in a condominium development or planned unit development shall be maintained with respect to such Mortgage Loan and the related development in a manner which is consistent with FNMA requirements.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer may maintain a blanket policy insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgaged Properties relating to the Mortgage Loans in lieu of maintaining the required hazard insurance policies for each Mortgage Loan and may maintain a blanket policy insuring against special flood hazards in lieu of maintaining any required flood insurance. Any such blanket policies shall (A) be consistent with prudent industry standards, (B) name the Servicer as loss payee, (C) provide coverage in an amount equal to the aggregate unpaid principal balance on the related Mortgage Loans without co-insurance, and (D) otherwise comply with the requirements of this Section 3.12. Any such blanket policy may contain a deductible clause; provided that if any Mortgaged Property is not covered by a separate policy otherwise complying with this Section 3.12 and a loss occurs with respect to such Mortgaged Property which loss would have been covered by such a policy, the Servicer shall deposit in the Servicer Custodial Account the difference, if any, between the amount that would have been payable under a separate policy complying with this Section 3.12 and the amount paid under such blanket policy.

Section 3.13. Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3.13, when any Mortgaged Property subject to a Mortgage has been conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Servicer shall use reasonable efforts, to the extent that it has actual knowledge of such conveyance, to enforce any due-on-sale clause contained in any Mortgage Note or Mortgage, to the extent permitted under applicable law and governmental regulations, but only to the extent that such enforcement will not adversely affect or jeopardize coverage under any Required Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer is not required to exercise such rights with respect to a Mortgage Loan if the Person to whom the related Mortgaged Property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed satisfies the terms and conditions contained in the Mortgage Note and Mortgage related thereto and the consent of the mortgagee under such Mortgage Note or Mortgage is not otherwise required under such Mortgage Note or Mortgage as a condition to such transfer. If (i) the Servicer is prohibited by law from enforcing any such due-on-sale clause, (ii) coverage under any Required Insurance Policy would be adversely affected, (iii) the Mortgage Note does not include a due-on-sale clause or (iv) nonenforcement is otherwise permitted hereunder, the Servicer is authorized, subject to Section 3.13(b), to take or enter into an assumption and modification agreement from or with the Person to whom such 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, the Mortgagor remains

-50-

liable thereon; provided that the Mortgage Loan shall continue to be covered (if so covered before the Servicer enters such agreement) by the applicable Required Insurance Policies. The Servicer, subject to Section 3.13(b), is also authorized with the prior approval of the insurers under any Required Insurance Policies 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default under this Section 3.13 by reason of any transfer or assumption which the Servicer reasonably believes it is restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever.

(b) Subject to the Servicer’s duty to enforce any due-on-sale clause to the extent set forth in Section 3.13(a), in any case in which a Mortgaged Property has been conveyed to a Person by a Mortgagor, and such Person is to enter into an assumption agreement or modification agreement or supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage that requires the signature of the Trustee, or if an instrument of release signed by the Trustee is required releasing the Mortgagor from liability on the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall prepare and deliver or cause to be prepared and delivered to the Trustee for signature and shall direct, in writing, the Trustee to execute the assumption agreement with the Person to whom the Mortgaged Property is to be conveyed and such modification agreement or supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or other instruments as are reasonable or necessary to carry out the terms of the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise to comply with any applicable laws regarding assumptions or the transfer of the Mortgaged Property to such Person. In no event shall the Trustee incur liability for executing any document under this Section 3.13 at the direction of the Servicer. In connection with any such assumption, no material term of the Mortgage Note may be changed. In addition, the substitute Mortgagor and the Mortgaged Property must be acceptable to the Servicer in accordance with its underwriting standards as then in effect. Together with each such substitution, assumption or other agreement or instrument delivered to the Trustee for execution by it, the Servicer shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate signed by a Servicing Officer stating that the requirements of this subsection have been met. The Servicer shall notify the Trustee that any such substitution or assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Trustee (or at the direction of the Trustee, the Custodian) the original of such substitution or assumption agreement, which in the case of the original shall be added to the related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof. Any fee collected by the Servicer for entering into an assumption or substitution of liability agreement may be retained by the Servicer as additional master servicing compensation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent permissible under applicable law and at the request of the Servicer, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer any powers of attorney and other documents prepared by the Servicer that are reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to execute any assumption agreement or modification agreement required to be executed by the Trustee under this Section 3.13.

Section 3.14. Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans; REO Property.

(a) The Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of Mortgaged Properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made

-51-

for collection of delinquent payments. In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion, the Servicer shall follow Customary Servicing Procedures and shall meet the requirements of the insurer under any Required Insurance Policy; provided, however, that the Servicer may enter into a special servicing agreement with an unaffiliated Holder of 100% Percentage Interest of a Class of Class B Certificates or a holder of a class of securities representing interests in the Class B Certificates alone or together with other subordinated mortgage pass-through certificates. Such agreement shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit K or subject to each Rating Agency’s acknowledgment that the ratings of the Certificates in effect immediately prior to the 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 holder may instruct the Servicer to commence or delay foreclosure proceedings with respect to delinquent Mortgage Loans and will contain provisions for the deposit of cash by the holder that would be available for distribution to Certificateholders if Liquidation Proceeds are less than they otherwise may have been had the Servicer acted in accordance with its normal procedures. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds in connection with any foreclosure or towards the restoration of any Mortgaged Property unless it shall determine (i) that such restoration and/or foreclosure will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself of such expenses and (ii) that such expenses will be recoverable to it through proceeds of the liquidation of the Mortgage Loan (respecting which it shall have priority for purposes of withdrawals from the Servicer Custodial Account). Any such expenditures shall constitute Servicing Advances for purposes of this Agreement.

The decision of the Servicer to foreclose on a defaulted Mortgage Loan shall be subject to a determination by the Servicer that the proceeds of such foreclosure would exceed the costs and expenses of bringing such a proceeding.

With respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders, or its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders. The Trustee’s name shall be placed on the title to such REO Property solely as the Trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity. The Servicer shall ensure that the title to such REO Property references this Agreement and the Trustee’s capacity hereunder. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Servicer shall either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer manage, conserve, protect and operate such REO Property in the same manner that it manages, conserves, protects and operates other foreclosed property for its own account and in the same manner that similar property in the same locality as the REO Property is managed. Incident to its conservation and protection of the interests of the Certificateholders, the Servicer may rent the same, or any part thereof, as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders for the period prior to the sale of such REO Property. The Servicer shall prepare for and deliver to the Trustee a statement with respect to each REO Property that has been rented, if any, showing the aggregate rental income received and all expenses incurred in connection with the management and maintenance of such REO Property at such times as is necessary to enable the Trustee to comply with the reporting requirements of the REMIC Provisions; provided, however, that the Servicer shall have no duty to rent any REO Property on behalf of the Trust. The net monthly rental income, if any, from such REO Property shall be deposited in the Servicer Custodial Account no later than the close

-52-

of business on each Determination Date. The Servicer shall perform, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, the tax reporting and withholding required by Sections 1445 and 6050J of the Code with respect to foreclosures and abandonments, the tax reporting required by Section 6050H of the Code with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest from individuals and, if required by Section 6050P of the Code with respect to the cancellation of indebtedness by certain financial entities, by preparing such tax and information returns as may be required, in the form required. The Servicer shall deliver copies of such reports to the Trustee.

If the Trust acquires any Mortgaged Property as described above or otherwise in connection with a default or a default which is reasonably foreseeable on a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged Property prior to the end of the third calendar year following the year of its acquisition by the Trust (such period, the “REO Disposition Period”) unless (A) the Trustee shall have been supplied by the Servicer with an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holding by the Trust of such Mortgaged Property subsequent to the REO Disposition Period will not result in the imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” (as defined in Section 860F of the Code) on either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC or cause either REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding, or (B) the Trustee (at the Servicer’s expense) or the Servicer shall have applied for, prior to the expiration of the REO Disposition Period, an extension of the REO Disposition Period in the manner contemplated by Section 856(e)(3) of the Code. If such an Opinion of Counsel is provided or such an exemption is obtained, the Trust may continue to hold such Mortgaged Property (subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion of Counsel) for the applicable period. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Mortgaged Property acquired by the Trust shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used for the production of income by or on behalf of the Trust in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause such Mortgaged Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or (ii) subject either REMIC to the imposition of any federal, state or local income taxes on the income earned from such Mortgaged Property under Section 860G(c) of the Code or otherwise, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust with respect to the imposition of any such taxes. The Servicer shall identify to the Trustee any Mortgaged Property relating to a Mortgage Loan held by the Trust for 30 months for which no plans to dispose of such Mortgaged Property by the Servicer have been made. After delivery of such identification, the Servicer shall proceed to dispose of any such Mortgaged Property by holding a commercially reasonable auction for such property.

The income earned from the management of any REO Properties, net of reimbursement to the Servicer for expenses incurred (including any property or other taxes) in connection with such management and net of unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Periodic Advances and Servicing Advances, shall be applied to the payment of principal of and interest on the related defaulted Mortgage Loans (solely for the purposes of allocating principal and interest, interest shall be treated as accruing as though such Mortgage Loans were still current) and all such income shall be deemed, for all purposes in this Agreement, to be payments on account of principal and interest on the related Mortgage Notes and shall be deposited into the Servicer Custodial Account. To the extent the net income received during any calendar month is in excess of the amount attributable to amortizing principal and accrued interest at the related

-53-

Mortgage Interest Rate on the related Mortgage Loan for such calendar month, such excess shall be considered to be a partial prepayment of principal of the related Mortgage Loan.

The proceeds from any liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, as well as any income from an REO Property, will be applied in the following order of priority: first, to reimburse the Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Servicing Fees; second, to reimburse the Servicer for any unreimbursed Periodic Advances and to reimburse the Servicer Custodial Account for any Nonrecoverable Advances (or portions thereof) that were previously withdrawn by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iii) that related to such Mortgage Loan; third, to accrued and unpaid interest (to the extent no Periodic Advance has been made for such amount or any such Periodic Advance has been reimbursed) on the Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, at the Mortgage Rate to the Due Date occurring in the month in which such amounts are required to be distributed; and fourth, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan. Excess Proceeds, if any, from the liquidation of a Liquidated Mortgage Loan will be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation pursuant to Section 3.17.

(b) The Servicer shall promptly notify the Depositor of any Mortgage Loan which comes into default. The Depositor shall be entitled, at its option, to repurchase (i) any such defaulted Mortgage Loan from the Trust Estate if (a) in the Depositor’s judgment, the default is not likely to be cured by the Mortgagor and (b) such Mortgage Loan is 180 days or more delinquent or (ii) any Mortgage Loan in the Trust Estate which pursuant to Section 4(b) of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement the Seller requests the Depositor to repurchase and to sell to the Seller to facilitate the exercise of the Seller’s rights against the originator or prior holder of such Mortgage Loan. The purchase price for any such Mortgage Loan shall be 100% of the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan plus accrued interest thereon at the Mortgage Interest Rate (less the Servicing Fee Rate for such Mortgage Loan) through the last day of the month in which such repurchase occurs. Upon the receipt of such purchase price, the Servicer shall provide to the Trustee the notification required by Section 3.15 and the Trustee or the Custodian shall promptly release to the Depositor the Mortgage File relating to the Mortgage Loan being repurchased.

Section 3.15. Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.

Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Servicer will immediately notify the Trustee (or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Custodian) by delivering, or causing to be delivered, two copies (one of which will be returned to the Servicer with the Mortgage File) of a Request for Release (which may be delivered in an electronic format acceptable to the Trustee and the Servicer). Upon receipt of such request, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, shall within seven Business Days release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer. The Trustee shall at the Servicer’s direction execute and deliver to the Servicer the request for reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or release or satisfaction of mortgage or such instrument releasing the lien of the Mortgage, in each case provided by the Servicer, together with the Mortgage Note with written evidence of cancellation thereon. If the Mortgage has been recorded in the name of MERS or its designee, the Servicer shall take all necessary action to reflect the release of the Mortgage on the records of MERS. Expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be

-54-

chargeable to the related Mortgagor. From time to time and as shall be appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including for such purpose collection under any policy of flood insurance, any fidelity bond or errors or omissions policy, or for the purposes of effecting a partial release of any Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage or the making of any corrections to the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or any of the other documents included in the Mortgage File, the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, shall, upon delivery to the Trustee (or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Custodian) of a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer, release the Mortgage File within seven Business Days to the Servicer. Subject to the further limitations set forth below, the Servicer shall cause the Mortgage File so released to be returned to the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, when the need therefor by the Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan is liquidated and the proceeds thereof are deposited in the Servicer Custodial Account, in which case the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, a Request for Release, signed by a Servicing Officer.

The Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer any powers of attorney and other documents prepared by the Servicer that are reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement, upon the request of the Servicer. In addition, upon prepayment in full of any Mortgage Loan or the receipt of notice that funds for such purpose have been placed in escrow, the Servicer is authorized to give, as attorney-in-fact for the Trustee and the mortgagee under the Mortgage, an instrument of satisfaction (or Assignment of Mortgage without recourse) regarding the Mortgaged Property relating to such Mortgage Loan, which instrument of satisfaction or Assignment of Mortgage, as the case may be, shall be delivered to the Person entitled thereto against receipt of the prepayment in full. If the Mortgage is registered in the name of MERS or its designee, the Servicer shall take all necessary action to reflect the release on the records of MERS. In lieu of executing such satisfaction or Assignment of Mortgage, or if another document is required to be executed by the Trustee, the Servicer may deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee, for signature, as appropriate, any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary to effectuate such foreclosure or any legal action brought to obtain judgment against the Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity.

Section 3.16. Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of the Servicer to be Held for the Trustee.

The Servicer shall transmit to the Trustee or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Custodian as required by this Agreement all documents and instruments in respect of a Mortgage Loan coming into the possession of the Servicer from time to time and shall account fully to the Trustee for any funds received by the Servicer or which otherwise are collected by the Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage Loan. The documents constituting the Servicing File shall be held by the Servicer as custodian and bailee for the Trustee. All Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the 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 Servicer Custodial Account, shall be held by the 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

-55-

Agreement. The Servicer also agrees that it shall not knowingly create, incur or subject any Mortgage File or any funds that are deposited in the Servicer 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 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 Servicer shall be entitled to set off against and deduct from any such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to the Servicer under this Agreement.

Section 3.17. Servicing Compensation.

The Servicer shall be entitled out of each payment of interest on a Mortgage Loan (or portion thereof) and included in the Trust Estate to retain or withdraw from the Servicer Custodial Account an amount equal to the Servicing Fee for such Distribution Date.

Additional servicing compensation in the form of Excess Proceeds, prepayment penalties, assumption fees, late payment charges and all income and gain net of any losses realized from Permitted Investments and all other customary and ancillary income and fees shall be retained by the Servicer to the extent not required to be deposited in the Servicer Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.08(b). The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided in this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the payment of the Servicing Fee on any Distribution Date, the aggregate Servicing Fee for the Servicer for such Distribution Date shall be reduced (but not below zero) by an amount equal to the lesser of (a) the Prepayment Interest Shortfall for such Distribution Date relating to the Mortgage Loans and (b) one-twelfth of % of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loans for such Distribution Date (any such reduction, “Compensating Interest”).

Section 3.18. Annual Statement as to Compliance.

The Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and each Rating Agency on or before 90 days after the end of the Servicer’s fiscal year, commencing with its 20 fiscal year, an Officer’s Certificate stating, as to the signer thereof, that (a) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding calendar year and of the performance of the Servicer under this Agreement has been made under such officer’s supervision, and (b) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the 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.

Section 3.19. Annual Independent Public Accountants’ Servicing Statement; Financial Statements.

The Servicer shall, at its own expense, on or before 90 days after the end of the Servicer’s fiscal year, commencing with its 20 fiscal year, cause a firm of independent public accountants (who may also render other services to the Servicer or any affiliate thereof) which is

-56-

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 Servicer’s overall servicing operations, examined such operations in accordance with the requirements of the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers, stating such firm’s conclusions relating thereto.

Section 3.20. Advances.

The Servicer shall determine on or before each Servicer Advance Date whether it is required to make a Periodic Advance pursuant to the definition thereof. If the Servicer determines it is required to make a Periodic Advance, it shall, on or before the Servicer Advance Date, either (a) deposit into the Servicer Custodial Account an amount equal to the Advance and/or (b) make an appropriate entry in its records relating to the Servicer Custodial Account that any portion of the Amount Held for Future Distribution in the Servicer Custodial Account has been used by the Servicer in discharge of its obligation to make any such Periodic Advance. Any funds so applied shall be replaced by the Servicer by deposit in the Servicer Custodial Account no later than the close of business on the Business Day preceding the next Servicer Advance Date. The Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the Servicer Custodial Account for all Advances of its own funds made pursuant to this Section 3.20 as provided in Section 3.11(a). The obligation to make Periodic Advances with respect to any Mortgage Loan shall continue until the ultimate disposition of the REO Property or Mortgaged Property relating to such Mortgage Loan. The Servicer shall inform the Trustee of the amount of the Periodic Advance to be made by the Servicer on each Servicer Advance Date no later than the related Remittance Date.

The Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee on the related Servicer Advance Date an Officer’s Certificate of a Servicing Officer indicating the amount of any proposed Periodic Advance determined by the Servicer to be a Nonrecoverable Advance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Servicer shall not be required to make any Periodic Advance or Servicing Advance that would be a Nonrecoverable Advance.

Section 3.21. Modifications, Waivers, Amendments and Consents.

(a) Subject to this Section 3.21, the Servicer may agree to any modification, waiver, forbearance, or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan without the consent of the Trustee or any Certificateholder. All modifications, waivers, forbearances or amendments of any Mortgage Loan shall be in writing and shall be consistent with Customary Servicing Procedures.

(b) The Servicer shall not agree to enter into, and shall not enter into, any modification, waiver (other than a waiver referred to in Section 3.13, which waiver, if any, shall be governed by Section 3.13), forbearance or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan if such modification, waiver, forbearance, or amendment would:

(i) affect the amount or timing of any related payment of principal, interest or other amount payable thereunder;

(ii) in the Servicer’s judgment, materially impair the security for such Mortgage Loan or reduce the likelihood of timely payment of amounts due thereon; or

-57-

(iii) otherwise constitute a “significant modification” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b);

unless, in either case, (A) such Mortgage Loan is 90 days or more past due or (B) the Servicer delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment would not affect the REMIC status of either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC and, in either case, such modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery with respect to such Mortgage Loan than would liquidation. Subject to Customary Servicing Procedures, the Servicer may permit a forbearance for a Mortgage Loan which in the Servicer’s judgment is subject to imminent default.

(c) Any payment of interest, which is deferred pursuant to any modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment permitted hereunder, shall not, for purposes hereof, including, without limitation, calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan or such modification, waiver or amendment so permit.

(d) The Servicer may, as a condition to granting any request by a Mortgagor for consent, modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment, the granting of which is within the Servicer’s discretion pursuant to the Mortgage Loan and is permitted by the terms of this Agreement, require that such Mortgagor pay to the Servicer, as additional servicing compensation, a reasonable or customary fee for the additional services performed in connection with such request, together with any related costs and expenses incurred by the Servicer, which amount shall be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation.

(e) The Servicer shall notify the Trustee, in writing, of any modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan and the date thereof, and shall deliver to the Trustee (or, at the direction of the Trustee, the Custodian) for deposit in the related Mortgage File, an original counterpart of the agreement relating to such modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment, promptly (and in any event within ten Business Days) following the execution thereof; provided, however, that if any such modification, waiver, forbearance or amendment is required by applicable law to be recorded, the Servicer (i) shall deliver to the Trustee a copy thereof and (ii) shall deliver to the Trustee such document, with evidence of notification upon receipt thereof from the public recording office.

Section 3.22. Reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Trustee shall, on behalf of the Trust, cause to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission any periodic reports required to be filed under the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, for so long as any Certificates registered under the 1933 Act are outstanding (other than the Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed by the Depositor in connection with computational materials and the initial Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed by the Depositor in connection with the issuance of the Certificates). Upon the request of the Trustee, the Servicer and the Depositor shall cooperate with the Trustee in the preparation of any such report and shall provide to the Trustee in a timely manner all such information or

-58-

documentation as the Trustee may reasonably request in connection with the performance of its duties and obligations under this Section.

Section 5.02. Priorities of Distributions.

(a) On each Distribution Date, based solely on the information contained in the Servicer’s Certificate, the Trustee shall withdraw from the Certificate Account (to the extent funds are available therein) (1) the amounts payable to the Trustee pursuant to Sections 3.11(b)(i) and 3.11(b)(ii) and shall pay such funds to itself, and (2) the Pool Distribution Amount, in an amount as specified in written notice received by the Trustee from the Servicer no later than the related Determination Date, and shall apply such funds, first, to distributions in respect of the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests as specified in this Section 5.02(a) for deposit in the Upper-Tier Certificate Account and to the Class A-LR Certificate, and then from the Upper-Tier Certificate Account to distributions on the Certificates in the following order of priority and to the extent of such funds:

(i) to each Class of Senior Certificates (other than the Class A-PO and Class A-LR Certificates), an amount allocable to interest equal to the Interest Distribution Amount for such Class and any shortfall being allocated among such Classes in proportion to the amount of the Interest Distribution Amount that would have been distributed in the absence of such shortfall;

(ii) concurrently to the Class A Certificates (other than the Class A-PO and Class A-LR Certificates) and the Class A-PO Certificates, pro rata, based on their respective Senior Principal Distribution Amount and PO Principal Amount, (A) to the Class A Certificates (other than the Class A-PO Certificates), in an aggregate amount up to the Senior Principal Distribution Amount, such distribution to be allocated among such Classes in accordance with Section 5.02(b) and (B) to the Class A-PO Certificates in an aggregate amount up to the PO Principal Amount;

(iii) to the Class A-PO Certificates, any Class A-PO Deferred Amount, up to the Subordinate Principal Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date from amounts otherwise distributable first to the Class B-6 Certificates pursuant to clause (iv)(L) below, second to the Class B-5 Certificates pursuant to clause (iv)(J) below, third to the Class B-4 Certificates pursuant to clause (iv)(H) below, fourth to the Class B-3 Certificates pursuant to clause (iv)(F) below, fifth to the Clause B-2 Certificates pursuant to clause (iv)(D) below and finally to the Class B-1 Certificates pursuant to clause (iv)(B) below;

(iv) to each Class of Subordinate Certificates, subject to paragraph (d) below, in the following order of priority:

(A) to the Class B-1 Certificates, an amount allocable to interest equal to the Interest Distribution Amount for such Class for such Distribution Date;

(B) to the Class B-1 Certificates, an amount allocable to principal equal to its Pro Rata Share for such Distribution Date less any amount used to pay the Class A-PO Deferred Amount pursuant to clause (iii) above until the Class Certificate Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

(C) to the Class B-2 Certificates, an amount allocable to interest equal to the Interest Distribution Amount for such Class for such Distribution Date;

-60-

(D) to the Class B-2 Certificates, an amount allocable to principal equal to its Pro Rata Share for such Distribution Date less any amount used to pay the Class A-PO Deferred Amount pursuant to clause (iii) above until the Class Certificate Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

(E) to the Class B-3 Certificates, an amount allocable to interest equal to the Interest Distribution Amount for such Class for such Distribution Date;

(F) to the Class B-3 Certificates, an amount allocable to principal equal to its Pro Rata Share for such Distribution Date less any amount used to pay the Class A-PO Deferred Amount pursuant to clause (iii) above until the Class Certificate Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

(G) to the Class B-4 Certificates, an amount allocable to interest equal to the Interest Distribution Amount for such Class for such Distribution Date;

(H) to the Class B-4 Certificates, an amount allocable to principal equal to its Pro Rata Share for such Distribution Date less any amount used to pay the Class A-PO Deferred Amount pursuant to clause (iii) above until the Class Certificate Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

(I) to the Class B-5 Certificates, an amount allocable to interest equal to the Interest Distribution Amount for such Class for such Distribution Date;

(J) to the Class B-5 Certificates, an amount allocable to principal equal to its Pro Rata Share for such Distribution Date less any amount used to pay the Class A-PO Deferred Amount pursuant to clause (iii) above until the Class Certificate Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

(K) to the Class B-6 Certificates, an amount allocable to interest equal to the Interest Distribution Amount for such Class for such Distribution Date; and

(v) to the Holder of the Class A-R Certificate, any amounts remaining in the Upper-Tier Certificate Account, and to the Holder of the Class A-LR Certificate, any remaining Pool Distribution Amount.

On any Distribution Date, amounts distributed in respect of Class A-PO Deferred Amounts will not reduce the Class Certificate Balance of the Class A-PO Certificates.

All distributions in respect of the Interest Distribution Amount for a Class will be applied first with respect to the amount payable pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of “Interest Distribution Amount,” and second with respect to the amount payable pursuant to clause (ii) of such definition.

-61-

On each Distribution Date, each Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest shall receive distributions in respect of principal in an amount equal to the amount of principal distributed to their respective Corresponding Upper-Tier Class or Classes as provided herein. On each Distribution Date, each Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest shall receive distributions in respect of interest in an amount equal to the Interest Distribution Amounts in respect of its Corresponding Upper-Tier Class or Classes, in each case to the extent actually distributed thereon. Such amounts distributed to the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests in respect of principal and interest with respect to any Distribution Date are referred to herein collectively as the “Lower-Tier Distribution Amount.”

As of any date, the principal balance (or, in the case of the Class A-LWIO Interest, the notional amount) of each Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest equals the aggregate of the Class Certificate Balances of the respective Corresponding Upper-Tier Class or Classes (or, in the case of the Class A-WIO Certificates, the Class A-WIO Notional Amount). The initial principal balance of each Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest equals the aggregate of the Initial Class Certificate Balances (or notional amount) of the respective Corresponding Upper-Tier Class or Classes.

The pass-through rate with respect to the Class A-L1 Interest, Class A-LUR Interest, Class B-L1 Interest, Class B-L2 Interest, Class B-L3 Interest, Class B-L4 Interest, Class B-L5 Interest and Class B-L6 Interest shall be % per annum. The pass-through rate with respect to the Class A-L3 Interest shall be % per annum. The pass-through rate with respect to the Class A-L4 Interest shall be % per annum. The pass-through rate with respect to the Class A-LWIO Interest shall be a per annum rate equal to (i) the weighted average of the Net Mortgage Interest Rates of the Premium Mortgage Loans (based on the Stated Principal Balance of the Premium Mortgage Loans on the Due Date in the month preceding the month of such Distribution Date minus (ii) %. The Class A-LPO Interest is a principal-only interest and is not entitled to distributions of interest. Any Non-Supported Interest Shortfalls will be allocated to each Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest in the same relative proportions as interest is allocated to such Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest.

(b) (i) On each Distribution Date prior to the Senior Credit Support Depletion Date, the amount distributable to the Class A Certificates (other than the Class A-PO Certificates) pursuant to Section 5.02(a)(ii) for such Distribution Date, will be distributed in the following order of priority:

[To Be Provided]

On each Distribution Date on or after the Senior Credit Support Depletion Date, notwithstanding the allocation and priority set forth above, the portion of the Pool Distribution Amount available to be distributed as principal of the Class A Certificates (other than the Class A-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.

(c) On each Distribution Date, Accrued Certificate Interest for each Class of Certificates for such Distribution Date shall be reduced by such Class’s pro rata share, based on

-62-

such Class’s 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, (B) any Excess Losses allocable to interest, (C) on and after the Senior Credit Support Depletion Date, any other Realized Loss allocable to interest and (D) each Relief Act Reduction incurred during the calendar month preceding the month of such Distribution Date.

(d) Notwithstanding the priority and allocation contained in Section 5.02(a)(iv), if with respect to any Class of Subordinate Certificates on any Distribution Date, (i) the aggregate of the Class Certificate Balances immediately prior to such Distribution Date of all Classes of Subordinate Certificates which have a higher numerical Class designation than such Class, divided by (ii) the aggregate Class Certificate Balance of all the Certificates (other than the Class A-PO Certificates) immediately prior to such Distribution Date (the “Fractional Interest”) is less than the Original Fractional Interest for such Class, no distribution of principal will be made to any Classes junior to such Class (the “Restricted Classes”) and the Class Certificate Balances of the Restricted Classes will not be used in determining the Pro Rata Share for the Subordinate Certificates that are not Restricted Classes. Any funds remaining will be distributed in the order provided in Section 5.02(a)(iv).

Section 5.03. Allocation of Losses.

(a) On or prior to each Determination Date, the 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. Based on such information, the Trustee shall determine the total amount of Realized Losses with respect to the related Distribution Date.

The principal portion of Realized Losses with respect to any Distribution Date shall be allocated as follows:

(i) the applicable PO Percentage of the principal portion of any Realized Loss with respect to a Discount Mortgage Loan shall be allocated to the Class A-PO Certificates until the Class Certificate Balance thereof is reduced to zero; and

(ii) the applicable Non-PO Percentage of the principal portion of any Realized Loss shall be allocated first to the Subordinate Certificates in reverse order of their respective numerical Class designations (beginning with the Class of Subordinate Certificates then outstanding with the highest numerical Class designation) until the respective Class Certificate Balance of each such Class is reduced to zero, and second to the Senior Certificates (other than the Class A-PO Certificates), pro rata, on the basis of their respective Class Certificate Balances immediately prior to the related Distribution Date, until the Class Certificate Balances thereof have been reduced to zero; and

(b) The Class Certificate Balance of the Class A-PO Certificates shall be reduced on each Distribution Date by the amount, if any, by which the Class Certificate Balance of the Class A-PO Certificates (after giving effect to the amount to be distributed as a

-63-

distribution of principal and the allocation of Realized Losses on such Distribution Date) exceeds the Adjusted Pool Amount (PO Portion) for such Distribution Date.

The Class Certificate Balance of the Class of Subordinate Certificates then outstanding with the highest numerical Class designation shall be reduced on each Distribution Date by the amount, if any, by which the aggregate of the Class Certificate Balances of all outstanding Classes of Certificates (after giving effect to the amount to be distributed as a distribution of principal and the allocation of Realized Losses and Class A-PO Deferred Amounts on such Distribution Date) exceeds the Adjusted Pool Amount for such Distribution Date.

After the Senior Credit Support Depletion Date, the Class Certificate Balances of the Senior Certificates in the aggregate (other than the Class Certificate Balance of the Class A-PO Certificates) shall be reduced on each Distribution Date by the amount, if any, by which the aggregate of the Class Certificate Balances of all outstanding Classes of Senior Certificates (other than Class A-PO Certificates) (after giving effect to the amount to be distributed as a distribution of principal and the allocation of Realized Losses on such Distribution Date) exceeds the difference between (i) the Adjusted Pool Amount for such Distribution Date and (ii) the Adjusted Pool Amount (PO Portion) for such Distribution Date.

Any such reduction shall be allocated among the Senior Certificates (other than the Class A-PO Certificates) based on the Class Certificate Balances immediately prior to such Distribution Date.

(c) Any Realized Loss allocated to a Class of Certificates or any reduction 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) Any allocation of Realized Losses to a Class of Certificates or any reduction in the Class Certificate Balance of a Class pursuant to Section 5.03(b) above shall be accomplished by reducing the Class Certificate Balance thereof prior to the distributions made on the related Distribution Date in accordance with the definition of “Class Certificate Balance.”

(e) With respect to any Distribution Date, Realized Losses allocated pursuant to this Section 5.03 will be allocated to each Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest in an amount equal to the amount allocated to its respective Corresponding Upper-Tier Class or Classes as provided above.

Section 5.04. Statements to Certificateholders.

(a) Prior to the Distribution Date in each month, based upon the information provided to the Trustee on the Servicer’s Certificates delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01, the Trustee shall determine the following information with respect to such Distribution Date:

(i) the amount allocable to principal, separately identifying the aggregate amount of any Principal Prepayments and Liquidation Proceeds included therein;

-64-

(ii) the amount allocable to interest, any Class Unpaid Interest Shortfall included in such distribution and any remaining Class Unpaid Interest Shortfall after giving effect to such distribution;

(iii) if the distribution to the Holders of such Class of Certificates is less than the full amount that would be distributable to such Holders if there were sufficient funds available therefor, the amount of the shortfall and the allocation thereof as between principal and interest;

(iv) the Class Certificate Balance of each Class of Certificates after giving effect to the distribution of principal on such Distribution Date;

(v)	the Pool Stated Principal Balance for the following Distribution Date;

(vi) the Senior Percentage, the Priority Percentage and the Subordinate Percentage for the following Distribution Date;

(vii) the amount of the Servicing Fee paid to or retained by the Servicer with respect to such Distribution Date;

(viii) the Pass-Through Rate for each such Class of Certificates with respect to such Distribution Date;

(ix) the amount of Periodic Advances included in the distribution on such Distribution Date and the aggregate amount of Periodic Advances outstanding as of the close of business on such Distribution Date;

(x) the number and aggregate principal amounts of Mortgage Loans (A) delinquent (exclusive of Mortgage Loans in foreclosure) (1) 1 to 30 days (2) 31 to 60 days (3) 61 to 90 days and (4) 91 or more days and (B) in foreclosure, as of the close of business on the last day of the calendar month preceding such Distribution Date;

(xi) with respect to any Mortgage Loan that became an REO Property during the preceding calendar month, the loan number and Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan as of the close of business on the Determination Date preceding such Distribution Date and the date of acquisition thereof;

(xii) the total number and principal balance of any REO Properties (and market value, if available) as of the close of business on the Determination Date preceding such Distribution Date;

(xiii) the Senior Prepayment Percentage and the Subordinate Prepayment Percentage for the following Distribution Date;

(xiv) the aggregate amount of Realized Losses incurred during the preceding calendar month or any Class A-PO Deferred Amounts for such Distribution Date.

In the case of information furnished pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) and (ix) 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 prepare and furnish 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.

The Trustee may make available each month, to any interested party, the monthly statement to Certificateholders via the Trustee’s website.

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), (ii) and (vii) 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 Holders of the Residual Certificates for quarterly notices on Schedule Q (Form 1066) (which information shall be forwarded to the Holders of the Residual Certificates 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 each 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 each 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

-66-

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, each 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 each 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 each REMIC and 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 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 each REMIC for its short taxable year ending December 31, 200 , 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 each 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. The Tax Matters Person shall have the same duties with respect to each 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 A-R Certificate is hereby designated as the Tax Matters Person for the Upper-Tier REMIC. The Holder of the Class A-LR Certificate is hereby designated as the Tax Matters Person for the Lower-Tier REMIC. By their acceptance of the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate, as applicable, each such Holder irrevocably appoints the Trustee as its agent to perform all of the duties of the Tax Matters Person for the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC.

-67-

Section 5.07. Rights of the 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 Servicer shall act in accordance herewith to assure continuing treatment of the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC as REMICs and avoid the imposition of tax on either REMIC. In particular:

(a) The Trustee shall not create, or permit the creation of, any “interests” in either REMIC within the meaning of Code Section 860D(a)(2) other than the interests represented by the Regular Certificates, the Residual Certificates and the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in the Code, (i) the Depositor and the Servicer shall not contribute to the Trust Estate and the Trustee shall not accept property unless substantially all of the property held in each 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 each 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 either REMIC any fee or other compensation for services and neither the Trustee nor the 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 3.14(b)), unless such sale is pursuant to a “qualified liquidation” of the applicable 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 and each REMIC on a calendar year taxable year and on an accrual basis.

Neither the 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 Servicer and the Depositor, the Trustee may engage in the activities otherwise prohibited by the foregoing paragraphs (b), (c) and (d); provided that the Servicer shall have delivered to the Trustee an

-68-

Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such transaction will not result in the imposition of a tax on either REMIC and will not disqualify the Trust Estate from treatment as two REMICs; and, provided further, that the 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.

Section 5.09. Determination of LIBOR. On each Rate Determination Date for a Class of LIBOR Certificates, the Trustee shall determine LIBOR for the applicable Distribution Date on the basis of the British Bankers’ Association (“BBA”) “Interest Settlement Rate” for one-month deposits in U.S. Dollars as found on Telerate page 3750 as of 11:00 A.M. London time on such Rate Determination Date. As used herein, “Telerate page 3750” means the display designated as page 3750 on the Bridge Telerate Service.

If on any Rate Determination Date for a Class of LIBOR Certificates, the Trustee is unable to determine LIBOR on the basis of the method set forth in the preceding paragraph, LIBOR for the applicable Distribution Date will be whichever is higher of (x) LIBOR as determined on the previous Rate Determination Date for such Class of LIBOR Certificates or (y) the Reserve Interest Rate. The “Reserve Interest Rate” will be the rate per annum which the Trustee determines to be either (A) the arithmetic mean (rounding such arithmetic mean upwards if necessary to the nearest whole multiple of 1/16%) of the one-month U.S. Dollar lending rates that New York City banks selected by the Trustee are quoting, on the relevant Rate Determination Date, to the principal London offices of at least two leading banks in the London interbank market or (B) in the event that the Trustee can determine no such arithmetic mean, the lowest one-month U.S. Dollar lending rate that the New York City banks selected by the Trustee are quoting on such Rate Determination Date to leading European banks.

If on any Rate Determination Date for a Class of LIBOR Certificates, the Trustee is required but is unable to determine the Reserve Interest Rate in the manner provided in the preceding paragraph, LIBOR for the applicable Distribution Date will be LIBOR as determined on the previous Rate Determination Date for such Class of LIBOR Certificates, or, in the case of the first Rate Determination Date, % per annum.

The establishment of LIBOR by the Trustee and the Trustee’s subsequent calculation of the rates of interest applicable to each of the LIBOR Certificates in the absence of manifest error, will be final and binding. After a Rate Determination Date, the Trustee shall provide the Pass-Through Rates of the LIBOR Certificates for the related Distribution Date to Beneficial Owners or Holders of LIBOR Certificates who place a telephone call to the Trustee at and make a request therefor.

(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 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 Servicer to the effect that the purchase or holding of such ERISA Restricted Certificate by or on behalf of such Plan will not result in the assets of the Trust Estate being deemed to be “plan assets” and subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA, the Code or Similar Law and will not subject the Trustee, the Depositor or the 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 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. 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 Servicer of an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee and the 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

-72-

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 a Residual Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions, and the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:

(i) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change or impending change in its status as a Permitted Transferee.

(ii) No Person shall acquire an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate unless such Ownership Interest is a pro rata undivided interest.

(iii) In connection with any proposed transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, the 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 a Residual Certificate to such proposed transferee shall be effected.

(v) No Ownership Interest in a 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 a Residual Certificate will not be disregarded for federal income tax purposes.

(vi) Any attempted or purported transfer of any Ownership Interest in a 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

-73-

transferee shall, in violation of the provisions of this Section 6.02, become a Holder of a Residual Certificate, then the prior Holder of such Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee shall, upon discovery that the registration of transfer of such Residual Certificate was not in fact permitted by this Section 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 a 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 a Residual Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted Transferee at the time such distributions were made all distributions made on such Residual Certificate. Any such distributions so recovered by the Trustee shall be distributed and delivered by the Trustee to the prior Holder of such Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee.

(vii) If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section 6.02, then the Trustee, based on information provided to the Trustee by the 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 a Residual Certificate shall be acquired by a Plan or any Person acting on behalf of a Plan.

(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 countersign 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

-74-

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 Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the 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 Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any agent of the Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

THE DEPOSITOR AND THE SERVICER

Section 7.01. Respective Liabilities of the Depositor and the Servicer. The Depositor and the 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 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 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 Servicer. The Depositor and the 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 Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any corporation or other organization resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Depositor or the Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor or the Servicer, shall be the successor of the Depositor or the Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person to the Servicer shall be qualified to service mortgage loans on behalf of FNMA or FHLMC.

Section 7.03. Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the Servicer and Others. None of the Depositor, the Servicer or any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor or of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trust Estate or the

-75-

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 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 Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor, the Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the 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 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 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 Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of amounts attributable to the Mortgage Loans on deposit in the Servicer Custodial Account as provided by Section 3.11.

Section 7.04. Depositor and Servicer Not to Resign. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.02, neither the Depositor nor the Servicer shall resign from its respective 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 Depositor or the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Trustee. No such resignation by the Servicer shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor Servicer shall have assumed the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations in accordance with Section 8.05 hereof.

(a) any failure by the Servicer to deposit amounts in the Servicer Custodial 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 3.20) which continues unremedied for a period of five days; or

-76-

(b) failure on the part of the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other covenants or agreements of the 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 Servicer by the Trustee or the Depositor, or to the 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 Servicer, or for the winding up or liquidation of the 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 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 Servicer or of or relating to substantially all of its property; or the Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or

(e) the failure of the Servicer to remit any Periodic Advance required to be remitted by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.20 which failure continues unremedied at 3:00 p.m. on the related Distribution Date;

then, and in each and every such case, so long as an Event of Default shall not have been remedied by the 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 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 Servicer under this Agreement. If an Event of Default described in clause (e) hereof shall occur, the Trustee shall, by notice to the Servicer, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and proceeds thereof and the Trustee or a successor Servicer appointed pursuant to Section 8.05 shall make the Advance which the Servicer failed to make. On or after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under this Section 8.01, unless and until such time as the Trustee shall appoint a successor Servicer pursuant to Section 8.05, and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice

-77-

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. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the 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 Servicer in the Servicer Custodial Account or thereafter received by the Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Upon obtaining notice or knowledge of the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Person obtaining such notice or knowledge shall give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate Register and to each Rating Agency. All costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with transferring the Mortgage Files to the successor Servicer and amending this Agreement to reflect such succession as Servicer pursuant to this Section 8.01 shall be paid by the predecessor Servicer. Notwithstanding the termination of the Servicer pursuant hereto, the Servicer shall remain liable for any causes of action arising out of any Event of Default occurring prior to such termination.

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 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% 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 Servicer or any successor 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, subject to the provisions of Section 9.01, 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 if the Trustee in good faith determines that the action or proceeding so directed would involve it in personal liability or be unjustly prejudicial to the non-assenting Certificateholders.

-78-

Section 8.04. Action upon Certain Failures of the Servicer and upon Event of Default. In the event that the Trustee shall have actual knowledge of any failure of the Servicer specified in Section 8.01(a) or (b) which would become an Event of Default upon the Servicer’s failure to remedy the same after notice, the Trustee shall give notice thereof to the Servicer. If the Trustee shall have knowledge of an Event of Default, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Certificateholders.

Section 8.05. Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.

(a) On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of termination pursuant to Section 8.01, the Trustee shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof or shall appoint a successor pursuant to Section 3.07. Notwithstanding anything provided herein to the contrary, under no circumstances shall any provision of this Agreement be construed to require the Trustee, acting in its capacity as successor to the Servicer in its obligation to make Advances, 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 Servicer would have been entitled to hereunder if no such notice of termination had been given. 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 Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that any such institution appointed as successor 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 Servicer. The appointment of a successor Servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Servicer which may have arisen under this Agreement prior to its termination as Servicer, nor shall any successor Servicer be liable for any acts or omissions of the predecessor Servicer or for any breach by the 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 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.

(b) In connection with the appointment of a successor Servicer or the assumption of the duties of the Servicer, as specified in Section 8.05(a), the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans serviced by the predecessor Servicer as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that any Person assuming the duties of the Servicer shall pay to such predecessor an amount equal to the market value of the portion of the Servicing Fee that will accrue in the future due to the Servicing Fee Rate exceeding % per annum with respect to any Mortgage Loan. The “market value” of such portion of the Servicing Fee shall be determined by , on the basis of at least two quotations from third parties actively engaged in the servicing of single-family mortgage

-79-

loans. If the successor Servicer does not agree that such market value is a fair price, such successor shall obtain two quotations of market value from third parties actively engaged in the servicing of single-family mortgage loans. The market value of the excess portion of the Servicing Fee will then be equal to the average of (i) the lowest figure obtained by , and (ii) the highest figure obtained by the successor Servicer. Payment of the amount calculated above shall be made to , by the successor Servicer no later than the last Business Day of the month in which such successor Servicer becomes entitled to receive the Servicing Fee under this Agreement. In no event will any portion of the Trust Estate be used to pay amounts due to under this Section 8.05(b).

(c) Any successor, including the Trustee, to the Servicer as servicer shall during the term of its service as servicer maintain in force (i) a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and omissions in the performance of its obligations as servicer hereunder and (ii) a fidelity bond in respect of its officers, employees and agents to the same extent as the Servicer is so required pursuant to Section 3.03.

Section 8.06. Notification to Certificateholders. Upon any termination or appointment of a successor to the 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

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:

-89-

determined by the Depositor 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 fourth paragraph of this Article X), plus any Class Unpaid Interest Shortfall for any Class of Certificates as well as one month’s interest at the related Mortgage Rate on the Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan (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.

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 Depositor to repurchase all of the Mortgage Loans is conditioned upon the Pool Stated Principal Balance as of the Final Distribution Date being less than 1% of the Cut-off Date Pool Principal Balance. If such right is exercised, 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.

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 Class A-PO Deferred Amount with respect to the Class A-PO Certificates, and (II) as to the Class A-R and A-LR Certificates, the amounts, if any, which

An amount shall be distributed in respect of interest and principal to the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests in the same amounts as distributed to their Corresponding Upper-Tier Class or Classes.

If within one year after the second notice all the Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds on deposit in such Eligible Account.

Section 10.02. Additional Termination Requirements.

(a) If the Depositor 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 Trust Estate to fail to qualify as two separate REMICs 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 Depositor under Section 10.01, the Trustee shall sell all of the assets of the Trust Estate to the Depositor for cash; and

(ii) the notice given by the Depositor or the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01 shall provide that such notice constitutes the adopting of a plan of complete liquidation of the Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC as of the date of such notice (or, if earlier, the date on which such notice was mailed to Certificateholders). The Trustee shall also specify such date in the final tax return of the Upper-Tier REMIC and Lower-Tier REMIC.

(b) By their acceptance of the Residual Certificates, the Holders thereof hereby agree to take such other action in connection with such plan of complete liquidation as may be reasonably requested by the Depositor.

Section 11.01. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee without the consent of any of the Certificateholders, (i) to cure any 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 Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC as REMICs 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 B-1 Certificates, the Class B-2 Certificates, the Class B-3 Certificates, the Class B-4 Certificates or the Class B-5 Certificates as evidenced by a letter from each Rating Agency rating such Certificates to such effect, (v) to reduce the percentage of the Pool Principal Balance at which the Depositor will have the option to purchase all the remaining Mortgage Loans in accordance with Section 10.01, provided that such reduction is considered necessary by the Depositor, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee, to preserve the treatment of the transfer of the Mortgage Loans to the Depositor by the Seller or to the Trust by the Depositor as sale for accounting purposes, and (vi) 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, provided that the 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 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

-92-

(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 Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC as REMICs 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 Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC as REMICs.

Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent the Trustee shall furnish 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 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

-93-

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.

Section 11.04. 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 11.05. Notices. All demands, notices, instructions, directions, requests and communications required to be delivered hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if personally delivered at or mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, (provided, however, that notices to the Trustee may be delivered by facsimile and shall be deemed effective upon receipt ) to (a) in the case of the Depositor, Wachovia Mortgage Loan Trust, LLC, [address], Attention: , (b) in the case of the Servicer, [address], Attention: , (c) in the case of the Trustee, [address], Attention: , (d) in the case of , [address], Attn , and (e) in the case of , [address], Attn: , or, as to each party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to each other party. Any notice required or permitted to be mailed to a Certificateholder shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, at the address of such Holder as shown in the Certificate Register. Any notice 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

-94-

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, countersignature 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.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized to be hereunto affixed, all as of the day and year first above written.
