ARTICLE II
CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS;
ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES
Section 2.01 Conveyance of Mortgage Loans.
The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does hereby
transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Trustee without recourse
for the benefit of the Certificateholders all the right, title and interest of
the Depositor, including any security interest therein for the benefit of the
Depositor, in and to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan
Schedule, the rights of the Depositor under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
(other than the Depositor's rights under Section 17 thereof), the rights of the
Depositor under each of the Cap Agreements, and all other assets included or to
be included in REMIC 1. Such assignment includes all scheduled payments on the
Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date and all unscheduled collections in
respect of the Mortgage Loans received after May 1, 2004 (other than the portion
of such collections due on or prior to the Cut-off Date). The Depositor herewith
delivers to the Trustee an executed copy of the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement, each of the Cap Agreements, the Cap Assignment and the PMI Policy.
If the assignment and transfer of the Mortgage Loans and the other property
specified in Section 2.01 from the Depositor to the Trustee pursuant to this
Agreement is held or deemed not to be a sale or is held or deemed to be a pledge
77
of security for a loan, the Depositor intends that the rights and obligations of
the parties shall be established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and
that, in such event, (i) the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted and does
hereby grant to the Trustee as of the Closing Date a perfected, first priority
security interest in the entire right, title and interest of the Depositor in
and to the Mortgage Loans and all other property conveyed to the Trust Fund
pursuant to this Section 2.01 and all proceeds thereof and (ii) this Agreement
shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.
In connection with such transfer and assignment, the Depositor does hereby
deliver to, and deposit with, the Trustee as custodian (in which capacity it
will, unless otherwise specified, be acting under this Article II) the following
documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan so transferred and
assigned (with respect to each Mortgage Loan, a "Mortgage File"):
(a) the original Mortgage Note, endorsed in blank or in the following form: "Pay
to the order of Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee under the
applicable agreement, without recourse," with all prior and intervening
endorsements showing a complete chain of endorsement from the originator to the
Person so endorsing to the Trustee or (in the case of not more than 1.00% of the
Mortgage Loans, by aggregate principal balance as of the Cut-off Date) a copy of
such original Mortgage Note with an accompanying Lost Note Affidavit executed by
the Seller;
(b) the original Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon, and a copy,
certified by the appropriate recording office, of the recorded power of
attorney, if the Mortgage was executed pursuant to a power of attorney, with
evidence of recording thereon;
(c) an original Assignment in blank;
(d) the original recorded Assignment or Assignments showing a complete chain of
assignment from the originator to the Person assigning the Mortgage to the
Trustee or in blank;
(e) the original or copies of each assumption, modification, written assurance
or substitution agreement, if any; and
(f) the original lender's title insurance policy, together with all endorsements
or riders issued with or subsequent to the issuance of such policy (or a copy of
the above, in the case of the Washington Mutual Mortgage Loans), insuring the
priority of the Mortgage as a first lien on the Mortgaged Property represented
therein as a fee interest vested in the Mortgagor, or in the event such title
policy is unavailable, a written commitment or uniform binder or preliminary
report of title issued by the title insurance or escrow company.
The Master Servicer, in its capacity as Seller, shall promptly (and in no event
later than thirty (30) Business Days, subject to extension upon a mutual
agreement between the Master Servicer and the Trustee), following the later of
the Closing Date and the date of receipt by the Master Servicer of the recording
information for a Mortgage submit or cause to be submitted for recording, at no
expense to the Trust Fund, the Trustee or the Depositor, in the appropriate
public office for real property records, each Assignment referred to in Sections
2.01(c) and (d) above and shall execute each original Assignment referred to in
clause (c) above in the following form: "Deutsche Bank National Trust Company,
as Trustee under applicable agreement, without recourse." In the event that any
78
such Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect therein, the
Master Servicer, in its capacity as Seller, shall promptly prepare or cause to
be prepared a substitute Assignment or cure or cause to be cured such defect, as
the case may be, and thereafter cause each such Assignment to be duly recorded.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Assignments shall not be required to be
completed and submitted for recording with respect to any Mortgage Loan if each
Rating Agency does not require recordation in order for such Rating Agency to
assign the initial ratings to the Class A Certificates, the Class S Certificates
and the Mezzanine Certificates and the Other NIM Notes and the initial shadow
rating to the Insured NIM Notes, without giving effect to any insurance policy
issued by the NIMS Insurer; provided, however, each Assignment shall be
submitted for recording by the Master Servicer, in its capacity as Seller, in
the manner described above, at no expense to the Trust Fund or the Trustee, upon
the earliest to occur of: (i) reasonable direction by Holders of Certificates
entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights, (ii) the occurrence of a Master
Servicer Event of Default, (iii) the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or
foreclosure relating to the Seller, (iv) the occurrence of a servicing transfer
as described in Section 7.02 hereof and (v) if the Seller is not the Master
Servicer and with respect to any one Assignment, the occurrence of a bankruptcy,
insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Master Servicer is unable to pay the cost
of recording the Assignments, such expense shall be paid by the Trustee and
shall be reimbursable to the Trustee as an Extraordinary Trust Fund Expense.
If any of the documents referred to in Sections 2.01(b), (c), (d) or (e) above
(collectively, the "Recording Documents") has as of the Closing Date been
submitted for recording but either (x) has not been returned from the applicable
public recording office or (y) has been lost or such public recording office has
retained the original of such document, the obligations of the Master Servicer,
in its capacity as the Seller, to deliver such Recording Documents shall be
deemed to be satisfied upon (1) delivery to the Trustee or the applicable
Custodian of a copy of each such Recording Document certified by the Seller in
the case of (x) above or the applicable public recording office in the case of
(y) above to be a true and complete copy of the original that was submitted for
recording and (2) if such copy is certified by the Seller, delivery to the
Trustee or the applicable Custodian promptly upon receipt thereof, and in any
event no later than one year after the Closing Date, of either the original or a
copy of such Recording Document certified by the applicable public recording
office to be a true and complete copy of the original. In instances where, due
to a delay on the part of the recording office where any such Recording
Documents have been delivered for recordation, the Recording Documents cannot be
delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian within one year after the
Closing Date, the Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, shall deliver
to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian within such time period an Officer's
Certificate stating the date by which the Master Servicer, in its capacity as
the Seller, expects to receive such Recording Documents from the applicable
recording office. In the event that Recording Documents have still not been
received by the Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, and delivered to
the Trustee or the applicable Custodian by the date specified in its previous
Officer's Certificate delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian, as
the case may be, the Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, shall
deliver to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian by such date an additional
Officer's Certificate stating a revised date by which the Master Servicer, in
its capacity as the Seller, expects to receive the applicable Recording
Documents. This procedure shall be repeated until the Recording Documents have
been received by the Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, and
delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian. If the original lender's
title insurance policy (or a copy thereof, in the case of the Washington Mutual
Mortgage Loans) was not delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(f) above, the Master
Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, shall deliver or cause to be delivered
to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian promptly after receipt thereof, and
79
in any event within 120 days after the Closing Date, the original lender's title
insurance policy (or a copy thereof, in the case of the Washington Mutual
Mortgage Loans). The Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, shall
deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian
promptly upon receipt thereof any other original documents constituting a part
of a Mortgage File received with respect to any Mortgage Loan, including, but
not limited to, any original documents evidencing an assumption or modification
of any Mortgage Loan.
All original documents relating to the Mortgage Loans that are not delivered to
the Trustee or the applicable Custodian are and shall be held by or on behalf of
the Seller, the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, in trust
for the benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders. In the event
that any such original document is required pursuant to the terms of this
Section to be a part of a Mortgage File, such document shall be delivered
promptly to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian. Any such original document
delivered to or held by the Depositor that is not required pursuant to the terms
of this Section to be a part of a Mortgage File, shall be delivered promptly to
the Master Servicer.
The Mortgage Loans permitted by the terms of this Agreement to be included in
the Trust are limited to (i) the Mortgage Loans (which the Depositor acquired
pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, which contains, among other
representations and warranties, a representation and warranty of the Seller that
no Mortgage Loan is a "high-cost" or "predatory" loan under any state or local
law or regulation applicable to the originator), and (ii) Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loans (which, by definition as set forth herein and referred to in the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, are required to conform to, among other
representations and warranties, the representation and warranty of the Seller
that no Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is a "high cost" or "predatory" loan
under any state or local law or regulation applicable to the originator). It is
agreed and understood by the parties hereto that it is not intended that any
mortgage loan be included in the Trust that is a "High-Cost Home Loan" as
defined in the New Jersey Home Ownership Act effective November 27, 2003 or a
"High Cost Home Loan" as defined in the New Mexico Home Loan Protection Act
effective January 1, 2004.
Section 2.02 Acceptance of REMIC 1 by the Trustee.
Subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 and subject to any exceptions noted on
the exception report described in the next paragraph below, the Trustee or a
Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, as applicable, acknowledges receipt of the
documents referred to in Section 2.01 above and all other assets included in the
definition of "REMIC 1" under clauses (i), (iii), (iv) and (vi) (to the extent
of amounts deposited into the Distribution Account) and declares that it holds
and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered to it
constituting the Mortgage File, and all such assets and such other assets
included in the definition of "REMIC 1" in trust for the exclusive use and
benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.
The Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, agrees, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, to review each Mortgage File on or before the Closing Date,
with respect to each Mortgage Loan and to certify to the Trustee, the NIMS
Insurer, the Depositor and the Master Servicer in substantially the form
attached hereto as Exhibit F-1 that, as to each Closing Date Mortgage Loan
80
listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full
or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed
thereto as not being covered by such certification), (i) all documents
constituting part of such Mortgage File (other than such documents described in
Section 2.01(e)) required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement are
in its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by the Trustee or the
Washington Mutual Custodian, as applicable and are not mutilated, torn or
defaced unless initialed by the related borrower and relate to such Mortgage
Loan and (iii) based on the Trustee's examination and only as to the foregoing,
the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to
items (i), (ii), (ix), (xii), (xiv) (to the extent of the Periodic Rate Cap for
the first Adjustment Date and subsequent Adjustment Dates) and (xvi) of the
definition of "Mortgage Loan Schedule" accurately reflects information set forth
in the Mortgage File. It is herein acknowledged that, in conducting such review,
neither the Trustee nor any Custodian is under any duty or obligation (i) to
inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or
other papers to determine whether they are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate
for the represented purpose (including with respect to Section 2.01(f), whether
such title insurance policy (a) contains all necessary endorsements, (b) insures
the priority of the Mortgage as a first lien or (c) whether the interest vested
in the Mortgagor is a fee interest) or whether they have actually been recorded
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 clause (e) of Section 2.01.
Prior to the first anniversary date of this Agreement, the Trustee shall deliver
(or, with respect to the Mortgage Loans held by another Custodian, such
Custodian shall deliver) to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the NIMS
Insurer a final certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F-2
evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable
exceptions noted thereon.
If in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making or preparing, as
the case may be, the certifications referred to above, the Trustee holding such
Mortgage Files or any Custodian holding such Mortgage Files finds any document
or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective
in any material respect, at the conclusion of its review the Trustee shall so
notify or such other Custodian shall notify the Depositor, the Seller, the NIMS
Insurer and the Master Servicer. In addition, upon the discovery by the
Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee of a breach of any of the
representations and warranties made by the Seller in the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially and adversely affects
the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interests of the related
Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach
shall give prompt written notice to the other parties.
Section 2.03 Cure, Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans by the
Seller; Remedies for Breaches by Depositor or Master Servicer; Remedies for
Breaches Relating to Prepayment Charges.
(a) Upon discovery or receipt of notice of any materially defective document in,
or that a document is missing from, the Mortgage File or of the breach by the
Seller of any representation, warranty or covenant under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially and
adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the
Certificateholders (it being understood that (i) in the case of any such
81
representation or warranty made to the knowledge or the best of knowledge of the
Seller, as to which the Seller has no knowledge, without regard to the Seller's
lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of such representation or
warranty being inaccurate at the time it was made and (ii) with respect to the
representation and warranty set forth in the last sentence of Section 6 (xxxix),
Section (xlvi), the first sentence of Section (xlvii) and Section (lxi) of the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, a breach of any such representation or
warranty shall in and of itself be deemed to materially and adversely affect the
interest of the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan), the Trustee
shall promptly notify the Depositor, the Seller, the NIMS Insurer and the Master
Servicer of such defect, missing document or breach and request that the Seller
deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach within 90 days from
the date the Seller was notified of such missing document, defect or breach
(except as described in Section 2.03(e)), and if the Seller does not deliver
such missing document or cure such defect or breach in all material respects
during such period, the Master Servicer (or, in accordance with Section 3.02(b),
the Trustee) shall enforce the obligations of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement to repurchase such Mortgage Loan from REMIC 1 at the Purchase
Price within 90 days after the date on which the Seller was notified (subject to
Section 2.03(e)) of such missing document, defect or breach, if and to the
extent that the Seller is obligated to do so under the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement. The Purchase Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan shall be
deposited in the Collection Account, and the Trustee or a Custodian, as
applicable, upon receipt of written certification from the Master Servicer of
such deposit, shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File, and the
Trustee or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, as applicable, shall execute
and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without
recourse, as the Seller shall furnish to it or such Custodian, as applicable,
and as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller any Mortgage Loan released
pursuant hereto, and neither the Trustee nor any Custodian shall have any
further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File. In lieu of
repurchasing any such Mortgage Loan as provided above, if so provided in the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Seller may cause such Mortgage Loan to be
removed from REMIC 1 (in which case it shall become a Deleted Mortgage Loan) and
substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and
subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d). It is understood and
agreed that the obligation of the Seller to cure or to repurchase (or to
substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a document is missing, a material
defect in a constituent document exists or as to which such a breach has
occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such
omission, defect or breach available to the Certificateholders, the Trustee on
behalf of the Certificateholders, and the NIMS Insurer.
(b) Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Depositor or receipt of
notice by the Depositor of the breach of any representation or warranty of the
Depositor set forth in Section 2.05 with respect to any Mortgage Loan, which
materially adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest
therein of the Certificateholders, the Depositor shall cure such breach in all
material respects.
(c) As promptly as practicable (and no later than 90 days) after the earlier of
discovery by the Master Servicer or receipt of notice by the Master Servicer of
the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Master Servicer
set forth in Section 2.04 which materially and adversely affects the value of
any Mortgage Loan or the interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage
Loan, the Master Servicer shall cure such breach in all material respects.
82
Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Master Servicer or receipt of
notice by the Master Servicer of the breach of any representation, warranty or
covenant of the Master Servicer set forth in Section 2.04(a)(vii) or (viii)
which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders
to any Prepayment Charge, the Master Servicer shall cure such breach in all
material respects. If the representation made by the Master Servicer in its
capacity as Seller in Section 2.04(a)(vii) is breached, the Master Servicer in
its capacity as Seller shall pay into the Collection Account the amount of the
scheduled Prepayment Charge, less any amount previously collected and deposited
by, or paid by, the Master Servicer into the Collection Account; and if the
covenant made by the Master Servicer in Section 2.04(a)(viii) is breached, the
Master Servicer shall pay into the Collection Account the amount of the waived
Prepayment Charge.
(d) Any substitution of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for Deleted Mortgage
Loans made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) shall be effected prior to the date which
is two years after the Startup Date for REMIC 1.
As to any Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Seller substitutes a Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be effected by the
Seller delivering to the Trustee (or, with respect to the Mortgage Loans held by
another Custodian, to such Custodian) on behalf of the Trustee, for such
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage,
the Assignment to the Trustee, and such other documents and agreements, with all
necessary endorsements thereon, as are required by Section 2.01, together with
an Officers' Certificate providing that each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loan satisfies the definition thereof and specifying the Substitution
Adjustments (as described below), if any, in connection with such substitution.
The Trustee shall acknowledge or with respect to the Mortgage Loans held by
another Custodian such other Custodian shall acknowledge receipt for such
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and, within ten Business Days
thereafter, review such documents as specified in Section 2.02 and deliver to
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, with respect to such
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, a certification substantially in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-1, with any applicable exceptions noted
thereon. Within one year of the date of substitution, the Trustee shall deliver
or with respect to the Mortgage Loans held by another Custodian, such other
Custodian shall deliver to the Depositor, the Seller, the NIMS Insurer and the
Master Servicer a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 hereto
with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, with any
applicable exceptions noted thereon. Monthly Payments due with respect to
Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution are not part of
REMIC 1 and will be retained by the Seller. For the month of substitution,
distributions to Certificateholders will reflect the Monthly Payment due on such
Deleted Mortgage Loan on or before the Due Date in the month of substitution,
and the Seller shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently
received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Trustee shall give or
cause to be given written notice to the NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders
that such substitution has taken place, and the Master Servicer shall amend or
cause to be amended the Mortgage Loan Schedule and, if applicable, the
Prepayment Charge Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan
from the terms of this Agreement and the substitution of the Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and shall deliver a copy of such amended
Mortgage Loan Schedule and, if applicable, the Prepayment Charge Schedule to the
NIMS Insurer and the Trustee. Upon such substitution, such Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan or Loans shall constitute part of the Mortgage Pool and shall be
83
subject in all respects to the terms of this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement, including all applicable representations and warranties
thereof included in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement as of the date of
substitution.
For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer will
determine the amounts (the "Substitution Adjustments"), if any, by which the
aggregate Purchase Price of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans in Loan Group I or
Loan Group II, respectively, exceeds the aggregate of the Stated Principal
Balance of the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans that will become part of Loan
Group I or Loan Group II, respectively, as of the date of substitution, together
with one month's interest on such Stated Principal Balance at the applicable Net
Mortgage Rate, plus all outstanding Advances and Servicing Advances with respect
to such Deleted Mortgage Loan. On the date of such substitution, the Seller will
deliver or cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer for deposit in the
Collection Account an amount equal to the sum of Substitution Adjustments, if
any (which for federal income tax purposes will be treated as payment for the
repurchase of that portion of the Deleted Mortgage Loans), and the Trustee, upon
receipt of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans (or
acknowledgement of such receipt by another Custodian) and certification by the
Master Servicer of such deposit, shall release or, if such Mortgage File is held
by another Custodian, such Custodian shall release to the Seller the related
Mortgage File or Files and the Trustee shall execute and deliver or, if such
Mortgage File is held by another Custodian, such Custodian shall execute and
deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, without recourse, as the
Seller shall deliver to it or such Custodian, as applicable, and as shall be
necessary to vest therein any Deleted Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.
In addition, the Master Servicer in its capacity as Seller shall obtain at its
own expense and deliver to the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such substitution will not cause (a) any federal tax
to be imposed on REMIC 1, created hereunder, including without limitation, any
federal tax imposed on "prohibited transactions" under Section 860F(a)(1) of the
Code or on contributions after the startup day under Section 860G(d)(1) of the
Code, or (b) any Trust REMIC hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time
that any Certificate is outstanding.
(e) Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer or the
Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a "qualified mortgage" within
the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact
shall within two Business Days give written notice thereof to the other parties.
In connection therewith, the Master Servicer in its capacity as Seller shall
repurchase or, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d),
substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for the affected
Mortgage Loan within 90 days of the earlier of discovery or receipt of such
notice with respect to such affected Mortgage Loan. Any such repurchase or
substitution shall be made in the same manner as set forth in Section 2.03(a)
and Section 2.03(d). The Trustee shall reconvey to the Seller the Mortgage Loan
to be released pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on the same terms and
conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach of a
representation or warranty.
84

account the value of such Prepayment Charge and related Mortgage Loan and doing
so is standard and customary in servicing mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage
Loans (including any waiver of a Prepayment Charge in connection with a
refinancing of a Mortgage Loan that is related to a default or a reasonably
foreseeable default).
(ix) With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer will furnish, or
cause to be furnished, information regarding the borrower credit file related to
such Mortgage Loan to credit reporting agencies in compliance with the
provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the applicable implementing
regulations. The Master Servicer will transmit full-file credit reporting data
86
for each Mortgage Loan pursuant to Xxxxxx Mae Guide Announcement 95-19 and that
for each Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer agrees it shall report one of the
following statuses each month as follows: new origination, current, delinquent
(30-, 60-, 90-days, etc.), foreclosed, or charged-off.
(b) It is understood and agreed that the representations, warranties and
covenants set forth in this Section 2.04 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage
Files to the Trustee or a Custodian, as the case may be, and shall inure to the
benefit of the Trustee, the Depositor and the Certificateholders. Upon discovery
by any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee of a breach of any
of the foregoing representations, warranties and covenants which materially and
adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan, Prepayment Charge or the
interests therein of the Certificateholders, the party discovering such breach
shall give prompt written notice (but in no event later than two Business Days
following such discovery) to the other of such parties. The obligation of the
Master Servicer set forth in Section 2.03(c) to cure breaches (or, in the case
of (a)(vii) or (a)(viii) above, to pay a Master Servicer Prepayment Charge
Payment Amount) shall constitute the sole remedy against the Master Servicer
available to the Certificateholders, the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer or the
Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders respecting a breach of the
representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Section 2.04. The
preceding sentence shall not, however, limit any remedies available to the
Certificateholders, the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer or the Trustee on behalf of
the Certificateholders, (i) pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
signed by the Master Servicer in its capacity as Seller, respecting a breach of
the representations, warranties and covenants of the Master Servicer in its
capacity as Seller contained in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or (ii)
pursuant to Section 7.01 hereof.

same. Upon the delivery, transfer or assignment of each of the Cap Agreements to

of the Trust, will receive each of the Cap Agreements, free and clear of any
pledge, lien, security interest, charge, claim, equity or encumbrance of any

default might result in any material adverse changes in the financial condition,
earnings, affairs or business of the Depositor or which might materially and
adversely affect the properties or assets, taken as a whole, of the Depositor;

Loan Purchase Agreement by the Depositor, and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, do not and will not result in a
material breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or, to the
knowledge of the Depositor, constitute a default under, any indenture, mortgage,
deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument to which the
Depositor is a party or by which the Depositor is bound or to which any of the

the Depositor or, to the best of the Depositor's knowledge without independent
investigation, any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or
governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Depositor or any of its

ARTICLE III .
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 3.01 Master Servicer to Act as Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans on behalf of
the Trustee and in the best interests of and for the benefit of the
Certificateholders (as determined by the Master Servicer in its reasonable
judgment) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the respective
Mortgage Loans and, to the extent consistent with such terms, in the same manner
in which it services and administers similar mortgage loans for its own
portfolio, giving due consideration to customary and usual standards of practice
of mortgage lenders and loan servicers administering similar mortgage loans in
the local areas where the related Mortgaged Property is located but without
regard to:
(i) any relationship that the Master Servicer, any Sub-Servicer or any Affiliate
of the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer may have with the related Mortgagor;
(ii) the ownership or non-ownership of any Certificate by the Master Servicer or
any Affiliate of the Master Servicer;
(iii) the Master Servicer's obligation to make Advances or Servicing Advances;
or
(iv) the Master Servicer's or any Sub-Servicer's right to receive compensation
for its services hereunder or with respect to any particular transaction.
91
To the extent consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall seek to
maximize the timely and complete recovery of principal and interest on the
Mortgage Notes. Subject only to the above-described servicing standards and the
terms of this Agreement and of the respective Mortgage Loans, the Master
Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through
Sub-Servicers as provided in Section 3.02, to do or cause to be done any and all
things in connection with such servicing and administration in accordance with
policies and procedures generally accepted in the mortgage banking industry.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer in its own
name or in the name of a Sub-Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the
Trustee when the Master Servicer believes it appropriate in its best judgment in
accordance with the servicing standards set forth above, to execute and deliver,
on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, and upon notice to the
Trustee, 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 and the Mortgaged Properties and to institute foreclosure
proceedings or obtain a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure so as to convert the
ownership of such properties, and to hold or cause to be held title to such
properties, on behalf of the Trustee and Certificateholders. The Master Servicer
shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with applicable
state and federal law and shall provide to the Mortgagors any reports required
to be provided to them thereby. The Master Servicer shall also comply in the
performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each
insurer under any standard hazard insurance policy. Subject to Section 3.17, the
Trustee, shall execute, at the written direction of the Master Servicer, and
furnish to the Master Servicer and any Sub-Servicer such documents as are
necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer to
carry out their servicing and administrative duties hereunder, and the Trustee
hereby grants to the Master Servicer and each Sub-Servicer a power of attorney
to carry out such duties including a power of attorney to take title to
Mortgaged Properties after foreclosure on behalf of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders. The Trustee, at the direction of the Master Servicer, shall
execute a separate power of attorney in favor of (and furnish such power of
attorney to) the Master Servicer and/or each Sub-Servicer for the purposes
described herein to the extent necessary or desirable to enable the Master
Servicer to perform its duties hereunder. The Trustee shall not be liable for
the actions of the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicers under such powers of
attorney.
Subject to Section 3.09 hereof, in accordance with the standards of the
preceding paragraph, the Master Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced
funds as necessary for the purpose of effecting the timely payment of taxes and
assessments on the Mortgaged Properties, which advances shall be Servicing
Advances reimbursable in the first instance from collections on the related
Mortgage Loans from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.09, and further as
provided in Section 3.11. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer or by
Sub-Servicers in effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on a
Mortgaged Property shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to
Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related
Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit.
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer
may not make any future advances with respect to a Mortgage Loan (except as
provided in Section 4.04) and the Master Servicer shall not (i) permit any
modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage
Rate, reduce or increase the principal balance (except for reductions resulting
92
from actual payments of principal) or change the final maturity date on such
Mortgage Loan (unless, as provided in Section 3.07, the Mortgagor is in default
with respect to the Mortgage Loan or such default is, in the judgment of the
Master Servicer, reasonably foreseeable) or (ii) permit any modification, waiver
or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would both (A) effect an
exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under Section 1001 of the Code (or
final, temporary or proposed Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) and
(B) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or the
imposition of any tax on "prohibited transactions" or contributions after the
startup day under the REMIC Provisions.
The Master Servicer may delegate its responsibilities under this Agreement;
provided, however, that no such delegation shall release the Master Servicer
from the responsibilities or liabilities arising under this Agreement.
With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer will furnish, or cause
to be furnished, information regarding the borrower credit file related to such
Mortgage Loan to credit reporting agencies in compliance with the provisions of
the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the applicable implementing regulations.
Section 3.02 Sub-Servicing Agreements Between the Master Servicer and Sub-Servicers.
(a) The Master Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements provided (i)
that such agreements would not result in a withdrawal or a downgrading by any
Rating Agency of the ratings on any Class of Certificates, any of the Other NIM
Notes or any of the Insured NIM Notes (without giving effect to any insurance
policy issued by the NIMS Insurer), as evidenced by a letter to that effect
delivered by each Rating Agency to the Depositor and the NIMS Insurer and (ii)
that, except in the case of any Sub-Servicing Agreements the Master Servicer may
enter into with Washington Mutual, Inc. or any Affiliate thereof, the NIMS
Insurer shall have consented to such Sub-Servicing Agreements (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld) with Sub-Servicers, for the servicing and
administration of the Mortgage Loans. That certain Subservicing Agreement by and
between the Master Servicer and Washington Mutual Bank, FA dated April 9, 2001
is hereby acknowledged as being permitted under this Agreement and meeting the
requirements applicable to Sub-Servicing Agreements set forth in this Agreement.
The Trustee is hereby authorized to acknowledge, at the request of the Master
Servicer, any Sub-Servicing Agreement that meets the requirements applicable to
Sub-Servicing Agreements set forth in this Agreement and that is otherwise
permitted under this Agreement.
Each Sub-Servicer shall be (i) authorized to transact business in the state or
states in which the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated,
if and to the extent required by applicable law to enable the Sub-Servicer to
perform its obligations hereunder and under the Sub-Servicing Agreement, (ii) an
institution approved as a mortgage loan originator by the Federal Housing
Administration or an institution the deposit accounts in which are insured by
the FDIC and (iii) a Xxxxxx Xxx approved mortgage servicer. Each Sub-Servicing
Agreement must impose on the Sub-Servicer requirements conforming to the
provisions set forth in Section 3.08. The Master Servicer will examine each
Sub-Servicing Agreement and will be familiar with the terms thereof. The terms
of any Sub-Servicing Agreement will not be inconsistent with any of the
provisions of this Agreement. The Master Servicer and the Sub-Servicers may
enter into and make amendments to the Sub-Servicing Agreements or enter into
different forms of Sub-Servicing Agreements; provided, however, that any such
amendments or different forms shall be consistent with and not violate the
93
provisions of this Agreement, and that no such amendment or different form shall
be made or entered into which could be reasonably expected to be materially
adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders, without the consent of the
Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. Any
variation without the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at
least 66% of the Voting Rights from the provisions set forth in Section 3.08
relating to insurance or priority requirements of Sub-Servicing Accounts, or
credits and charges to the Sub-Servicing Accounts or the timing and amount of
remittances by the Sub-Servicers to the Master Servicer, are conclusively deemed
to be inconsistent with this Agreement and therefore prohibited. The Master
Servicer shall deliver to the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee copies of all
Sub-Servicing Agreements, and any amendments or modifications thereof, promptly
upon the Master Servicer's execution and delivery of such instruments.
(b) As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Master Servicer (except
as otherwise provided in the last sentence of this paragraph), for the benefit
of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of each
Sub-Servicer under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement and, subject to the last
sentence of this paragraph, of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement including, without limitation, any obligation to make advances in
respect of delinquent payments as required by a Sub-Servicing Agreement, or to
purchase or otherwise remedy as contemplated herein a Mortgage Loan on account
of missing or defective documentation or on account of a breach of a
representation, warranty or covenant, as described in Section 2.03(a). Such
enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims,
termination of Sub-Servicing 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 Master Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require
were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall pay
the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, and shall be reimbursed
therefor only (i) from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement, to
the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in respect of the
related Mortgage Loans or (ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or
attorneys' fees against the party against whom such enforcement is directed.
Enforcement of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement against the Seller shall be
effected by the Master Servicer to the extent it is not the Seller, and
otherwise by the Trustee, in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this
paragraph.
Section 3.03 Successor Sub-Servicers.
The Master Servicer, with the written consent of the NIMS Insurer, shall be
entitled to terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement and the rights and obligations
of any Sub-Servicer pursuant to any Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with
the terms and conditions of such Sub-Servicing Agreement. In the event of
termination of any Sub-Servicer, all servicing obligations of such Sub-Servicer
shall be assumed simultaneously by the Master Servicer without any act or deed
on the part of such Sub-Servicer or the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer
either shall service directly the related Mortgage Loans or shall enter into a
Sub-Servicing Agreement with a successor Sub-Servicer which qualifies under
Section 3.02.
Any Sub-Servicing Agreement shall include the provision that such agreement may
be immediately terminated by the Trustee without fee, in accordance with the
94
terms of this Agreement, and the Trustee shall so terminate such Sub-Servicing
Agreement at the direction of the NIMS Insurer in the event that the Master
Servicer (or the Trustee, if then acting as Master Servicer) shall, for any
reason, no longer be the Master Servicer (including termination due to a Master
Servicer Event of Default).
Section 3.04 Liability of the Master Servicer.
Notwithstanding any Sub-Servicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this
Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Master Servicer and
a Sub-Servicer or reference to actions taken through a Sub-Servicer or
otherwise, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and primarily liable to
the Trustee and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administering of
the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01 without
diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Sub-Servicing
Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Sub-Servicer
and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Master
Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. The Master
Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Sub-Servicer for
indemnification of the Master Servicer by such Sub-Servicer and nothing
contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such
indemnification and no such indemnification shall be an expense of the Trust.
Section 3.05 No Contractual Relationship Between Sub-Servicers and the NIMS
Insurer, the Trustee or Certificateholders.
Any Sub-Servicing Agreement that may be entered into and any transactions or
services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Sub-Servicer in its capacity
as such shall be deemed to be between the Sub-Servicer and the Master Servicer
alone, and the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders shall not be
deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or
liabilities with respect to the Sub-Servicer except as set forth in Section
3.06. The Master Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any
Sub-Servicer, irrespective of whether the Master Servicer's compensation
pursuant to this Agreement is sufficient to pay such fees and such fees shall
not be an expense of the Trust.
Section 3.06 Assumption or Termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements by Trustee.
In the event the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the master
servicer (including by reason of the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of
Default), the Trustee or its designee shall thereupon assume all of the rights
and obligations of the Master Servicer under each Sub-Servicing Agreement that
the Master Servicer may have entered into, unless the Trustee elects to
terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with its terms as provided
in Section 3.03. Upon such assumption, the Trustee, its designee or the
successor servicer for the Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 7.02 shall be
deemed, subject to Section 3.03, to have assumed all of the Master Servicer's
interest therein and to have replaced the Master Servicer as a party to each
Sub-Servicing Agreement to the same extent as if each Sub-Servicing Agreement
had been assigned to the assuming party, except that (i) the Master Servicer
shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under any
Sub-Servicing Agreement that arose before it ceased to be the Master Servicer
and (ii) none of the Trustee, its designee or any successor Master Servicer
shall be deemed to have assumed any liability or obligation of the Master
Servicer that arose before it ceased to be the Master Servicer.
95
The Master Servicer at its own expense and without reimbursement shall, upon
request of the Trustee, deliver to the assuming party all documents and records
relating to each Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being
serviced and an accounting of amounts collected and held by or on behalf of it,
and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer
of the Sub-Servicing Agreements to the assuming party.
Section 3.07 Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments.
The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called
for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and shall, to the
extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and
provisions of any applicable insurance policies, follow such collection
procedures as it would follow with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the
Mortgage Loans and held for its own account. Consistent with the foregoing, the
Master Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or, if
applicable, any penalty interest, or (ii) extend the due dates for the Monthly
Payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period of not greater than 180 days;
provided that any extension pursuant to this clause (ii) shall not affect the
amortization schedule of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of any computation
hereunder, except as provided below. In the event of any such arrangement
pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Master Servicer shall make timely advances on
such Mortgage Loan during such extension pursuant to Section 4.04 and in
accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without
modification thereof by reason of such arrangements, subject to Section 4.04(d)
pursuant to which the Master Servicer shall not be required to make any such
advances that are Nonrecoverable Advances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the
event that any Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Master
Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable, the Master Servicer,
consistent with the standards set forth in Section 3.01, may also waive, modify
or vary any term of such Mortgage Loan (including modifications that would
change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of principal or interest or extend
the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan, accept payment from the related
Mortgagor of an amount less than the Stated Principal Balance in final
satisfaction of such Mortgage Loan (such payment, a "Short Pay-off") or consent
to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or otherwise grant
indulgence to any Mortgagor; provided, that in the judgment of the Master
Servicer, any such modification, waiver or amendment could reasonably be
expected to result in collections and other recoveries in respect of such
Mortgage Loans in excess of Net Liquidation Proceeds that would be recovered
upon the foreclosure of, or other realization upon, such Mortgage Loan and
provided further, that the NIMS Insurer's prior written consent shall be
required for any modification, waiver or amendment if the aggregate number of
outstanding Mortgage Loans which have been modified, waived or amended exceeds
5% of the number of Closing Date Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.
Section 3.08 Sub-Servicing Accounts.
In those cases where a Sub-Servicer is servicing a Mortgage Loan pursuant to a
Sub-Servicing Agreement, the Sub-Servicer shall be required to establish and
maintain one or more accounts (collectively, the "Sub-Servicing Account"). The
Sub-Servicing Account shall be an Eligible Account and shall be entitled
"Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee, in trust for registered
Holders of Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2004-3, Asset-Backed Certificates,
Series 2004-3. The Sub-Servicer shall be required to deposit in the clearing
account (which account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily
96
deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its
mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than
one Business Day after the Sub-Servicer's receipt thereof, all proceeds of
Mortgage Loans received by the Sub-Servicer less its servicing compensation to
the extent permitted by the Sub-Servicing Agreement, and shall thereafter
deposit such amounts in the Sub-Servicing Account, in no event more than two
Business Days after the deposit of such funds into the clearing account. The
Sub-Servicer shall thereafter be required to deposit such proceeds in the
Collection Account or remit such proceeds to the Master Servicer for deposit in
the Collection Account not later than two Business Days after the deposit of
such amounts in the Sub-Servicing Account. For purposes of this Agreement, the
Master Servicer shall be deemed to have received payments on the Mortgage Loans
when the Sub-Servicer receives such payments.
Section 3.09 Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Servicing Accounts.
The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and
maintained, one or more accounts (the "Servicing Accounts"). Servicing Accounts
shall be Eligible Accounts. The Master Servicer shall deposit in the clearing
account (which account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily
deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its
mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than
one Business Day after the Master Servicer's receipt thereof, all collections
from the Mortgagors (or related advances from Sub-Servicers) for the payment of
taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums and comparable items for the
account of the Mortgagors ("Escrow Payments") collected on account of the
Mortgage Loans and shall thereafter deposit such Escrow Payments in the
Servicing Accounts, in no event more than two Business Days after the deposit of
such funds in the clearing account, for the purpose of effecting the payment of
any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement. Withdrawals of
amounts from a Servicing Account may be made only to (i) effect payment of
taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums, and comparable items; (ii)
reimburse the Master Servicer (or a Sub-Servicer to the extent provided in the
related Sub-Servicing Agreement) out of related collections for any advances
made pursuant to Section 3.01 (with respect to taxes and assessments) and
Section 3.14 (with respect to hazard insurance); (iii) refund to Mortgagors any
sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest, if required and as
described below, to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Account; (v) clear
and terminate the Servicing Account upon the termination of the Master
Servicer's obligations and responsibilities in respect of the Mortgage Loans
under this Agreement in accordance with Article IX or (vi) recover amounts
deposited in error. As part of its servicing duties, the Master Servicer or
Sub-Servicers shall pay to the Mortgagors interest on funds in Servicing
Accounts, to the extent required by law and, to the extent that interest earned
on funds in the Servicing Accounts is insufficient, to pay such interest from
its or their own funds, without any reimbursement therefor. To the extent that a
Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Master Servicer shall
determine whether any such payments are made by the Mortgagor in a manner and at
a time that avoids the loss of the Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or the
foreclosure of a tax lien. The Master Servicer assumes full responsibility for
the payment of all such bills within such time and shall effect payments of all
such bills irrespective of the Mortgagor's faithful performance in the payment
of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make advances from its
own funds to effect such payments; provided, however, that such advances shall
constitute Servicing Advances.
97
Section 3.10 Collection Account and Distribution Account.
(a) On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer shall establish and
maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, one or more accounts (such
account or accounts, the "Collection Account"), held in trust for the benefit of
the Trustee and the Certificateholders. On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Master
Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the clearing account (which
account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments
and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing
activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than one Business Day after
the Master Servicer's receipt thereof, and shall thereafter deposit in the
Collection Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the deposit of
such funds into the clearing account, as and when received or as otherwise
required hereunder, the following payments and collections received or made by
it subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal or
interest on the related Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date or
payments (other than Principal Prepayments) received by it on or prior to the
Cut-off Date but allocable to a Due Period subsequent thereto):
(i) all payments on account of principal, including Principal Prepayments, on
the Mortgage Loans;
(ii) all payments on account of interest (net of the related Servicing Fee) on
each Mortgage Loan;
(iii) all Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds (other than proceeds
collected in respect of any particular REO Property and amounts paid by the
Master Servicer in connection with a purchase of Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties pursuant to Section 9.01) and all Gross Subsequent Recoveries;
(iv) any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.12 in connection
with any losses realized on Permitted Investments with respect to funds held in
the Collection Account;
(v) any amounts required to be deposited by the Master Servicer pursuant to the
second paragraph of Section 3.14(a) in respect of any blanket policy
deductibles;
(vi) all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan repurchased or purchased in accordance
with Section 2.03, Section 3.16 or Section 9.01 and all Master Servicer
Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts required to be deposited in the Collection
Account pursuant to Section 2.03;
(vii) all Substitution Adjustments;
(viii) all Prepayment Charges collected by the Master Servicer; and
(ix) without duplication, all payments of claims received by the Master Servicer
under the PMI Policy.
98
For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, the Cut-off Date with
respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall be deemed to be the date
of substitution.
The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Accounts shall be
exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late payment charges, NSF fees,
reconveyance fees, assumption fees and other similar fees and charges (other
than Prepayment Charges) need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the
Collection Account and shall, upon collection, belong to the Master Servicer as
additional compensation for its servicing activities. In the event the Master
Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account any amount not required to be
deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Collection
Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
(b) On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Trustee shall establish and maintain one or
more accounts (such account or accounts, the "Distribution Account"), held in
trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders. On behalf of
the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee in immediately
available funds for deposit in the Distribution Account on or before 3:00 p.m.
New York time (i) on the Master Servicer Remittance Date, that portion of the
Available Funds (calculated without regard to the references in the definition
thereof to amounts that may be withdrawn from the Distribution Account) for the
related Distribution Date then on deposit in the Collection Account and the
amount of any funds reimbursable to an Advancing Person pursuant to Section 3.27
and (ii) on each Business Day as of the commencement of which the balance on
deposit in the Collection Account exceeds $75,000 following any withdrawals
pursuant to the next succeeding sentence, the amount of such excess, but only if
the Collection Account constitutes an Eligible Account solely pursuant to clause
(ii) of the definition of "Eligible Account." If the balance on deposit in the
Collection Account exceeds $75,000 as of the commencement of business on any
Business Day and the Collection Account constitutes an Eligible Account solely
pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of "Eligible Account," the Master
Servicer shall, on or before 3:00 p.m. New York time on such Business Day,
withdraw from the Collection Account any and all amounts payable or reimbursable
to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Seller or any
Sub-Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11 and shall pay such amounts to the Persons
entitled thereto. In order to comply with its duties under the U.S. Patriot Act,
the Trustee shall obtain and verify certain information and documentation from
the owners of the account that it establishes pursuant to this Agreement,
including, but not limited to, each account owner's name, address, and other
identifying information.
(c) Funds in the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be invested
in Permitted Investments in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section
3.12. The Master Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer,
the Depositor and the Rating Agencies of the location of the Collection Account
maintained by it when established and prior to any change thereof. The Trustee
shall give notice to the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor and
the Rating Agencies of the location of the Distribution Account when established
and prior to any change thereof.
(d) Funds held in the Collection Account at any time may be delivered by the
Master Servicer to the Trustee for deposit in an account (which may be the
Distribution Account and must satisfy the standards for the Distribution Account
99
as set forth in the definition thereof) and for all purposes of this Agreement
shall be deemed to be a part of the Collection Account; provided, however, that
the Trustee shall have the sole authority to withdraw any funds held pursuant to
this subsection (d). In the event the Master Servicer shall deliver to the
Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account any amount not required to be
deposited therein, it may at any time request that the Trustee withdraw, and the
Trustee shall withdraw, such amount from the Distribution Account and remit to
the Master Servicer any such amount, any provision herein to the contrary
notwithstanding. In addition, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee
from time to time for deposit, and the Trustee shall so deposit, in the
Distribution Account:
(i) any Advances, as required pursuant to Section 4.04, unless delivered
directly to the Trustee by an Advancing Person;
(ii) any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.23(d) or (f) in
connection with any REO Property;
(iii) any amounts to be paid by the Master Servicer in connection with a
purchase of Mortgage Loans and REO Properties pursuant to Section 9.01;
(iv) any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.24 in connection
with any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls; and
(v) any Stayed Funds, as soon as permitted by the federal bankruptcy court
having jurisdiction in such matters.
(e) Promptly upon receipt of any Stayed Funds, whether from the Master Servicer,
a trustee in bankruptcy, federal bankruptcy court or other source, the Trustee
shall deposit such funds in the Distribution Account, subject to withdrawal
thereof pursuant to Section 7.02(b) or as otherwise permitted hereunder.
Section 3.11 Withdrawals from the Collection Account and Distribution Account.
(a) The Master Servicer shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the
Collection Account, for any of the following purposes or as described in Section
4.04, without priority:
(i) to remit to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account the amounts
required to be so remitted pursuant to Section 3.10(b) or permitted to be so
remitted pursuant to the first sentence of Section 3.10(d);
(ii) subject to Section 3.16(d), to reimburse the Master Servicer for Advances,
but only to the extent of amounts received which represent Late Collections (net
of the related Servicing Fees) of Monthly Payments on the related Mortgage Loans
in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.04;
(iii) subject to Section 3.16(d), to pay the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer
(a) any unpaid Servicing Fees or (b) any unreimbursed Servicing Advances with
respect to each Mortgage Loan, but only to the extent of any Late Collections,
Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, Gross Subsequent Recoveries or other
100
amounts as may be collected by the Master Servicer from a Mortgagor, or
otherwise received with respect to such Mortgage Loan;
(iv) to pay to the Master Servicer as servicing compensation (in addition to the
Servicing Fee) on the Master Servicer Remittance Date any interest or investment
income earned on funds deposited in the Collection Account;
(v) to pay to the Master Servicer or the Seller, as the case may be, with
respect to each Mortgage Loan that has previously been purchased or replaced
pursuant to Section 2.03 or Section 3.16(c) all amounts received thereon
subsequent to the date of purchase or substitution, as the case may be;
(vi) to reimburse the Master Servicer for any Advance or Servicing Advance
previously made which the Master Servicer has determined to be a Nonrecoverable
Advance in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.04;
(vii) to reimburse the Master Servicer or the Depositor for expenses incurred by
or reimbursable to the Master Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be,
pursuant to Section 6.03;
(viii) to reimburse the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the
case may be, for enforcement expenses reasonably incurred in respect of the
breach or defect giving rise to the purchase obligation under Section 2.03 of
this Agreement that were included in the Purchase Price of the Mortgage Loan,
including any expenses arising out of the enforcement of the purchase
obligation; provided, however, that the reimbursement to the NIMS Insurer
pursuant to this clause shall be limited to an annual amount of $25,000;
(ix) to pay, or to reimburse the Master Servicer for advances in respect of,
expenses incurred in connection with any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section
3.16(b); and
(x) to clear and terminate the Collection Account pursuant to Section 9.01.
The Master Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on an
individual Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal
from the Collection Account, to the extent held by or on behalf of it, pursuant
to subclauses (ii), (iii), (v), (vi), (viii) and (ix) above. The Master Servicer
shall provide written notification to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, on or
prior to the next succeeding Master Servicer Remittance Date, upon making any
withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to subclause (vii) above.
(b) The Trustee shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Distribution
Account, for any of the following purposes, without priority:
(i) to make distributions to Certificateholders in accordance with Section 4.01;
101
(ii) to pay to itself amounts to which it is entitled pursuant to Section 8.05
or to pay any other Extraordinary Trust Fund Expenses;
(iii) to pay to itself any interest income earned on funds deposited in the
Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.12(c);
(iv) to reimburse itself pursuant to Section 7.02 or pursuant to Section 7.01 to
the extent such amounts in Section 7.01 were not reimbursed by the Master
Servicer;
(v) to pay any amounts in respect of taxes pursuant to Section 10.01(g);
(vi) to remit to the Master Servicer any amount deposited in the Distribution
Account by the Master Servicer but not required to be deposited therein in
accordance with Section 3.10(d);
(vii) to pay to an Advancing Person reimbursements for Advances and/or Servicing
Advances pursuant to Section 3.27;
(viii) to clear and terminate the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 9.01;
(ix) to pay the PMI Insurer the PMI Insurer Fee based on information received
from the Master Servicer; and

Section 3.12 Investment of Funds in the Collection Account and the
Distribution Account.
(a) The Master Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining the
Collection Account and any REO Account (for purposes of this Section 3.12, an
"Investment Account"), and the Trustee, in its individual capacity, may direct
any depository institution maintaining the Distribution Account (for purposes of
this Section 3.12, the Distribution Account is also an "Investment Account"), to
invest the funds in such Investment Account in one or more Permitted Investments
bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand,
(i) no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such
funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement,
if a Person other than the Trustee is the obligor thereon and (ii) no later than
the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such account
pursuant to this Agreement, if the Trustee is the obligor thereon. All such
Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any
investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be made in the name of the
Trustee (in its capacity as such), or in the name of a nominee of the Trustee.
The Trustee shall be entitled to sole possession (except with respect to
investment direction of funds held in the Collection Account and any REO Account
and any income and gain realized thereon) over each such investment, and any
certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment shall be
delivered directly to the Trustee or its agent, together with any document of
transfer necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Trustee or its
102
nominee. In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any
time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on demand, the Trustee shall:
(x) consistent with any notice required to be given thereunder, demand that
payment thereon be made on the last day such Permitted Investment may otherwise
mature hereunder in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) all amounts then
payable thereunder and (2) the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and
(y) demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon actual notice by
a Responsible Officer of the Trustee that such Permitted Investment would not
constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in
the Investment Account.
(b) All income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the
Collection Account and any REO Account held by or on behalf of the Master
Servicer shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer and shall be subject to
its withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.11 or Section 3.23, as applicable.
The Master Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account or any REO Account,
as applicable, from its own funds, the amount of any loss of principal incurred
in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such accounts
immediately upon realization of such loss.
(c) All income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the
Distribution Account held by or on behalf of the Trustee shall be for the
benefit of the Trustee and shall be subject to its withdrawal at any time. The
Trustee shall deposit in the Distribution Account, from its own funds, the
amount of any loss of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted
Investment made with funds in such accounts immediately upon realization of such
loss.
(d) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default
occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or if a
default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment,
the Trustee may, and subject to Section 8.01 and Section 8.02(v), upon the
request of the Holders of Certificates representing more than 50% of the Voting
Rights allocated to any Class of Certificates shall, take such action as may be
appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution
and prosecution of appropriate proceedings.
Section 3.13 Reserved.
Section 3.14 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance and Errors and Omissions and
Fidelity Coverage.
(a) The Master Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan fire
insurance with extended coverage on the related Mortgaged Property in an amount
which is at least equal to the least of (i) the then current principal balance
of such Mortgage Loan, (ii) the amount necessary to fully compensate for any
damage or loss to the improvements that are a part of such property on a
replacement cost basis and (iii) the maximum insurable value of the improvements
which are a part of such Mortgaged Property, in each case in an amount not less
103
than such amount as is necessary to avoid the application of any coinsurance
clause contained in the related hazard insurance policy. The Master Servicer
shall also cause to be maintained fire insurance with extended coverage on each
REO Property in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the
maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property
and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan at the
time it became an REO Property, plus accrued interest at the Mortgage Rate and
related Servicing Advances. The Master Servicer will comply in the performance
of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer
under any such hazard policies. Any amounts to be collected by the Master
Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be applied to the
restoration or repair of the property subject to the related Mortgage or amounts
to be released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the procedures that the
Master Servicer would follow in servicing loans held for its own account,
subject to the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note)
shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to
Section 3.11, if received in respect of a Mortgage Loan, or in the REO Account,
subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.23, if received in respect of an REO
Property. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer in maintaining any such
insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to
Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related
Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit.
It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is
to be required of any Mortgagor other than pursuant to such applicable laws and
regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such
additional insurance. If the Mortgaged Property or REO Property is at any time
in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency as having special flood hazards and flood insurance has been
made available, the Master Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood
insurance policy in respect thereof. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount
equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage
Loan and (ii) the maximum amount of such insurance available for the related
Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance program (assuming that the
area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is participating in such
program).
In the event that the Master Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy
with an insurer having a General Policy Rating of A:X or better in Best's Key
Rating Guide (or such other rating that is comparable to such rating) insuring
against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans, it shall conclusively be
deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in the first two sentences
of this Section 3.14, it being understood and agreed that such policy may
contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer shall, in the
event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged
Property or REO Property a policy complying with the first two sentences of this
Section 3.14, and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been
covered by such policy, deposit to the Collection Account from its own funds the
amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible
clause. In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of the
Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of
itself, the Trustee and Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy
in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy.
(b) The Master Servicer shall keep in force during the term of this Agreement a
policy or policies of insurance covering errors and omissions for failure in the
104
performance of the Master Servicer's obligations under this Agreement, which
policy or policies shall be in such form and amount that would meet the
requirements of Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac if it were the purchaser of the
Mortgage Loans, unless the Master Servicer or any of its Affiliates has obtained
a waiver of such Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac requirements from either Xxxxxx Mae
or Xxxxxxx Mac. The Master Servicer shall also maintain a fidelity bond in the
form and amount that would meet the requirements of Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac,
unless the Master Servicer or any of its Affiliates has obtained a waiver of
such Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac requirements from either Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx
Mac. The Master Servicer shall provide the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer (upon
such party's reasonable request) with copies of any such insurance policies and
fidelity bond. The Master Servicer shall be deemed to have complied with this
provision if an Affiliate of the Master Servicer has such errors and omissions
and fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms of such insurance policy or
fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the Master Servicer.
Any such errors and omissions policy and fidelity bond shall by its terms not be
cancelable without thirty days' prior written notice to the Trustee. The Master
Servicer shall also cause each Sub-Servicer to maintain a comparable policy of
insurance covering errors and omissions and a fidelity bond meeting such
requirements.
Section 3.15 Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.
The Master Servicer shall, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or
prospective conveyance of any Mortgaged Property by any Mortgagor (whether by
absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor
remains or is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the Mortgage),
exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under the
"due-on-sale" clause, if any, applicable thereto; provided, however, that the
Master Servicer shall not be required to take such action if in its sole
business judgment the Master Servicer believes that the collections and other
recoveries in respect of such Mortgage Loans could reasonably be expected to be
maximized if the Mortgage Loan were not accelerated, and the Master Servicer
shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law from doing so. If the
Master Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce
such "due-on-sale" clause, or if any of the other conditions set forth in the
proviso to the preceding sentence apply, the Master Servicer will enter into an
assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to whom such
property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which such
person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted by
applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. The Master Servicer
may also 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 the Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage
Note, provided that no such substitution shall be effective unless such person
satisfies the underwriting criteria of the Master Servicer and has a credit risk
rating at least equal to that of the original Mortgagor. In connection with any
assumption, modification or substitution, the Master Servicer shall apply such
underwriting standards and follow such practices and procedures as shall be
normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities and as it applies
to other mortgage loans owned solely by it. The Master Servicer shall not take
or enter into any assumption and modification agreement, however, unless (to the
extent practicable under the circumstances) it shall have received confirmation,
in writing, of the continued effectiveness of any applicable hazard insurance
policy, or a new policy meeting the requirements of this Section is obtained.
Any fee collected by the Master Servicer in respect of any assumption,
modification or substitution of liability agreement will be retained by the
Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation. In connection with any
such assumption, no material term of the Mortgage Note (including but not
limited to the related Mortgage Rate and the amount of the Monthly Payment) may
be amended or modified, except as otherwise required pursuant to the terms
105
thereof. The Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer that
any such substitution, modification or assumption agreement has been completed
by forwarding to the Trustee (with a copy to the NIMS Insurer) the executed
original of such substitution, modification or assumption agreement, which
document 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.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this
Agreement, the Master Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or
any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of
a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or by the terms of the Mortgage Note or any
assumption which the Master Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing,
for any reason whatever. For purposes of this Section 3.15, the term
"assumption" is deemed to also include a sale of the Mortgaged Property subject
to the Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of
liability agreement.
Section 3.16 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
(a) The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the
servicing standard set forth in Section 3.01, to foreclose upon or otherwise
comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the Mortgage
Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory
arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to
Section 3.07. The Master Servicer shall be responsible for all costs and
expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however, that such
costs and expenses will constitute and be recoverable as Servicing Advances by
the Master Servicer as contemplated in Section 3.11 and Section 3.23. The
foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which Mortgaged
Property shall have suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Master Servicer
shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such
property unless it shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion that such
restoration will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage
Loan after reimbursement to itself for such expenses.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.16 or any other
provision of this Agreement, with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the
Master Servicer has received actual notice of, or has actual knowledge of, the
presence of any toxic or hazardous substance on the related Mortgaged Property,
the Master Servicer shall not, on behalf of the Trustee, either (i) obtain title
to such Mortgaged Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise
or (ii) otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action with respect
to, such Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action, the Trustee,
the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders would be considered to hold title to,
to be a "mortgagee-in-possession" of, or to be an "owner" or "operator" of such
106
Mortgaged Property within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended from time to time,
or any comparable law, unless the Master Servicer has also previously
determined, based on its reasonable judgment and a report prepared by an
Independent Person who regularly conducts environmental audits using customary
industry standards, that:
(1) such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws
or, if not, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund to
take such actions as are necessary to bring the Mortgaged Property into
compliance therewith; and
(2) there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating to
the use, management or disposal of any hazardous substances, hazardous
materials, hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials for which
investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could
be required under any federal, state or local law or regulation, or that if any
such materials are present for which such action could be required, that it
would be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions
with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, if such
environmental audit reveals, or if the Master Servicer has knowledge or notice,
that the Mortgaged Property securing the Mortgage Loan contains such wastes or
substances or is within one mile of the site of such wastes or substances, the
Master Servicer shall not foreclose or accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure
without the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer.
The cost of the environmental audit report contemplated by this Section 3.16
shall be advanced by the Master Servicer, subject to the Master Servicer's right
to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as provided in Section
3.11(a)(ix), such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of
Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account received in
respect of the affected Mortgage Loan or other Mortgage Loans. It is understood
by the parties hereto that any such advance will constitute a Servicing Advance.
If the Master Servicer determines, as described above, that it is in the best
economic interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions as are necessary to
bring any such Mortgaged Property into compliance with applicable environmental
laws, or to take such action with respect to the containment, clean-up or
remediation of hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes or
petroleum-based materials affecting any such Mortgaged Property, then the Master
Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest
of the Trust Fund. The cost of any such compliance, containment, cleanup or
remediation shall be advanced by the Master Servicer, subject to the Master
Servicer's right to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as
provided in Section 3.11(a)(ix), such right of reimbursement being prior to the
rights of Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account
received in respect of the affected Mortgage Loan or other Mortgage Loans. It is
understood by the parties hereto that any such advance will constitute a
Servicing Advance.
(c) The Master Servicer may at its option purchase from REMIC 1 any Mortgage
Loan or related REO Property that is 90 days or more delinquent or that has been
otherwise in default for 90 days or more, which the Master Servicer determines
in good faith will otherwise become subject to foreclosure proceedings (evidence
of such determination to be delivered in writing to the Trustee prior to
purchase), at a price equal to the Purchase Price; provided, however, that the
Master Servicer shall purchase any such Mortgage Loans or related REO Properties
on the basis of delinquency or default, purchasing first the Mortgage Loans or
related REO Properties that became delinquent or otherwise in default on an
earlier date; and provided, further, that such option shall expire as of the
last day of the calendar quarter during which such Mortgage Loan or related REO
107
Property became 90 days delinquent or otherwise in default for 90 days or more.
In the event the Master Servicer does not exercise its option to purchase from
REMIC 1 any such Mortgage Loan or related REO Property prior to the expiration
of such option, the NIMS Insurer shall be entitled to purchase such Mortgage
Loan or related REO Property at any time thereafter. The Purchase Price for any
Mortgage Loan or related REO Property purchased hereunder shall be deposited in
the Collection Account, and the Trustee, upon receipt of written certification
from the Master Servicer of such deposit, shall release or cause to be released
to the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, the related Mortgage
File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or
assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Master Servicer or the NIMS
Insurer, as applicable, shall furnish and as shall be necessary to vest in the
Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, title to any Mortgage Loan
or related REO Property released pursuant hereto.
(d) Proceeds received (other than any Prepayment Charges received) in connection
with any Final Recovery Determination, as well as any recovery resulting from a
partial collection of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or Gross
Subsequent Recoveries, in respect of any Mortgage Loan, will be applied in the
following order of priority: first, to reimburse the Master Servicer or any
Sub-Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Advances,
pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(ii) or (a)(iii); second, to accrued and unpaid
interest on the Mortgage Loan, to the date of the Final Recovery Determination,
or to the Due Date prior to the Distribution Date on which such amounts are to
be distributed if not in connection with a Final Recovery Determination; and
third, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan. If the amount of the
recovery so allocated to interest is less than the full amount of accrued and
unpaid interest due on such Mortgage Loan, the amount of such recovery will be
allocated by the Master Servicer as follows: first, to unpaid Servicing Fees;
and second, to the balance of the interest then due and owing. The portion of
the recovery so allocated to unpaid Servicing Fees shall be reimbursed to the
Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iii).
Section 3.17 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.
(a) Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Master
Servicer of a notification that payment in full shall be escrowed in a manner
customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer will promptly notify the
Trustee and the applicable Custodian holding the related Mortgage File by a
certification in the form of Exhibit E-2 (which certification shall include a
statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in
connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the
Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.10 have been or will be so deposited)
of a Servicing Representative and shall request delivery to it of the related
Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Trustee or
such Custodian, as applicable, shall promptly release the related Mortgage File
to the Master Servicer. No expenses incurred in connection with any instrument
of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Collection
Account or the Distribution Account.
(b) From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any
Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose, collection under any insurance
108
policy relating to the Mortgage Loans, the Trustee or the applicable Custodian
shall, upon request of the Master Servicer and delivery to the Trustee or the
applicable Custodian of a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit E-l,
release the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer, and the Trustee or the
applicable Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, at the direction of the
Master Servicer, execute such documents as shall be necessary to the prosecution
of any such proceedings and the Master Servicer shall retain such Mortgage File
in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Such Request for Release
shall obligate the Master Servicer to return each and every document previously
requested from the Mortgage File to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian when
the need therefor by the Master Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage
Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage
Loan have been deposited in the Collection Account or the Mortgage File or such
document has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other
public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal
action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property either
judicially or non-judicially, and the Master Servicer has delivered to the
Trustee or the applicable Custodian a certificate of a Servicing Representative
certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which such Mortgage File
or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery.
Upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Representative stating that such
Mortgage Loan was liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in
connection with such liquidation that are required to be deposited into the
Collection Account have been so deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has become
an REO Property, a copy of the Request for Release shall be released by the
Trustee or the applicable Custodian to the Master Servicer or its designee.
(c) At the direction of the Master Servicer and upon written certification of a
Servicing Representative, each of the Trustee or the applicable Custodian shall
execute and deliver to the Master Servicer any court pleadings, requests for
trustee's sale or other documents reasonably necessary to the foreclosure or
trustee's sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought
to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or to
obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights
provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in
equity, or shall execute and deliver to the Master Servicer a power of attorney
sufficient to authorize the Master Servicer or the Sub-Servicer to execute such
documents on its behalf, provided that each of the Trustee or the applicable
Custodian shall be obligated to execute the documents identified above if
necessary to enable the Master Servicer or the Sub-Servicer to perform their
respective duties hereunder or under the Sub-Servicing Agreement. Each such
certification shall include a request that such pleadings or documents be
executed by the Trustee or the applicable Custodian and a statement as to the
reason such documents or pleadings are required.
(d) If any Mortgage Loan is repurchased, substituted or purchased in accordance
with Section 2.03, 3.16(c) or 9.01, the Trustee shall execute and deliver the
Mortgage Loan Assignment Agreement in the form of Exhibit E-3 with respect to
such Mortgage Loan, transferring such Mortgage Loan to the Person entitled
thereto pursuant to such Section 2.03, 3.16(c) or 9.01, as applicable.
Section 3.18 Servicing Compensation.
As compensation for the activities of the Master Servicer hereunder, the Master
Servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage
Loan payable solely from payments of interest in respect of such Mortgage Loan,
subject to Section 3.24. In addition, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to
109
recover unpaid Servicing Fees out of Late Collections, Insurance Proceeds,
Liquidation Proceeds or Gross Subsequent Recoveries to the extent permitted by
Section 3.11(a)(iii) and out of amounts derived from the operation and sale of
an REO Property to the extent permitted by Section 3.23. The right to receive
the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in
connection with the transfer of all of the Master Servicer's responsibilities
and obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Master
Servicer may pay from the Servicing Fee any amounts due to a Sub-Servicer
pursuant to a Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into under Section 3.02.
Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption or modification
fees, late payment charges, NSF fees, reconveyance fees and other similar fees
and charges (other than Prepayment Charges) shall be retained by the Master
Servicer (subject to Section 3.24) only to the extent such fees or charges are
received by the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall also be entitled
pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iv) to withdraw from the Collection Account, and
pursuant to Section 3.23(b) to withdraw from any REO Account, as additional
servicing compensation, interest or other income earned on deposits therein,
subject to Section 3.12. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay all
expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder
(including premiums for the insurance required by Section 3.14, to the extent
such premiums are not paid by the related Mortgagors or by a Sub-Servicer, it
being understood however, that payment of such premiums by the Master Servicer
shall constitute Servicing Advances and servicing compensation of each
Sub-Servicer, and to the extent provided herein and in Section 8.05, the fees
and expenses of the Trustee) and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor
except as specifically provided herein.
Section 3.19 Reports to the Trustee; Collection Account Statements.
Not later than fifteen days after each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer
shall forward to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor a statement
prepared by the Master Servicer setting forth the status of the Collection
Account as of the close of business on such Distribution Date and showing, for
the period covered by such statement, the aggregate amount of deposits into and
withdrawals from the Collection Account of each category of deposit specified in
Section 3.10(a) and each category of withdrawal specified in Section 3.11. Such
statement may be in the form of the then current Xxxxxx Xxx Monthly Accounting
Report for its Guaranteed Mortgage Pass-Through Program with appropriate
additions and changes, and shall also include information as to the aggregate of
the outstanding principal balances of all of the Mortgage Loans as of the last
day of the calendar month immediately preceding such Distribution Date. Copies
of such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder and
to any Person identified to the Trustee as a prospective transferee of a
Certificate, upon request at the expense of the requesting party, provided such
statement is delivered by the Master Servicer to the Trustee.
Section 3.20 Statement as to Compliance.
The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, the Depositor, the NIMS
Insurer and each Rating Agency on or before March 10 of each calendar year prior
to and including the calendar year in which a Form 15 is filed with respect to
the Trust Fund and April 30 of each calendar year thereafter, an Officers'
Certificate stating, as to each signatory thereof, that (i) a review of the
110
activities of the Master Servicer during the preceding year and of performance
under this Agreement has been made under such officers' supervision and (ii) to
the best of such officers' knowledge, based on such review, the Master Servicer
has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement throughout such year,
or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation,
specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status
thereof. Copies of any such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any
Certificateholder and to any Person identified to the Trustee as a prospective
transferee of a Certificate, upon the request and at the expense of the
requesting party, provided that such statement is delivered by the Master
Servicer to the Trustee.
Section 3.21 Independent Public Accountants' Servicing Report.
Not later than March 10 of each calendar year prior to and including the
calendar year in which a Form 15 is filed with respect to the Trust Fund and
April 30 of each calendar year thereafter, the Master Servicer, at its expense,
shall cause a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public
accountants to furnish to the Master Servicer a report stating that (i) it has
obtained a letter of representation regarding certain matters from the
management of the Master Servicer which includes an assertion that the Master
Servicer has complied with certain minimum residential mortgage loan servicing
standards, identified in the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage
Bankers established by the Mortgage Bankers Association of America, with respect
to the servicing of residential mortgage loans during the most recently
completed fiscal year and (ii) on the basis of an examination conducted by such
firm in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants, such representation is fairly stated in all
material respects, subject to such exceptions and other qualifications that may
be appropriate. In rendering its report such firm may rely, as to matters
relating to the direct servicing of residential mortgage loans by Sub-Servicers,
upon comparable reports of firms of independent certified public accountants
rendered on the basis of examinations conducted in accordance with the same
standards (rendered within one year of such report) with respect to those
Sub-Servicers. Immediately upon receipt of such report, the Master Servicer
shall furnish a copy of such report to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and each
Rating Agency. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any
Certificateholder upon request at the Master Servicer's expense, provided that
such statement is delivered by the Master Servicer to the Trustee. In the event
such firm of independent certified public accountants requires the Trustee to
agree to the procedures performed by such firm, the Master Servicer shall direct
the Trustee in writing to so agree; it being understood and agreed that the
Trustee will deliver such letter of agreement in conclusive reliance upon the
direction of the Master Servicer, and the Trustee has not made any independent
inquiry or investigation as to, and shall have no obligation or liability in
respect of, the sufficiency, validity or correctness of such procedures.
Section 3.22 Access to Certain Documentation.
The Master Servicer shall provide to the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC
and any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority that
may exercise authority over any Certificateholder access to the documentation
regarding the Mortgage Loans serviced by the Master Servicer under this
111
Agreement, as may be required by applicable laws and regulations. Such access
shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during
normal business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer designated by it. In
addition, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans serviced by
the Master Servicer under this Agreement will be provided to any
Certificateholder, the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee and to any Person identified to
the Master Servicer as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon
reasonable request during normal business hours at the offices of the Master
Servicer designated by it at the expense of the Person requesting such access.
Section 3.23 Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.
(a) The deed or certificate of sale of any REO Property shall be taken in the
name of the Trustee, or its nominee, in trust for the benefit of the
Certificateholders. The Master Servicer, on behalf of REMIC 1 (and on behalf of
the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders), shall sell any REO
Property as soon as practicable and, in any event, shall either sell any REO
Property before the close of the third taxable year after the year REMIC 1
acquires ownership of such REO Property for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of
the Code or request from the Internal Revenue Service, no later than 60 days
before the day on which the three-year grace period would otherwise expire, an
extension of the three-year grace period, unless the Master Servicer shall have
delivered to Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor an Opinion of Counsel,
addressed to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor, to the effect that
the holding by REMIC 1 of such REO Property subsequent to three years after its
acquisition will not result in the imposition on any Trust REMIC of taxes on
"prohibited transactions" thereof, as defined in Section 860F of the Code, or
cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under Federal law at any
time that any Certificates are outstanding. If an extension of the three-year
period is granted, the Master Servicer shall sell the related REO Property no
later than 60 days prior to the expiration of such extension period. The Master
Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the
Certificateholders solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in
a manner which does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as
"foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or
result in the receipt by any Trust REMIC of any "income from non-permitted
assets" within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code, or any "net
income from foreclosure property" which is subject to taxation under the REMIC
Provisions.
(b) The Master Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and
received in connection with the operation of any REO Property separate and apart
from its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain, or cause
to be established and maintained, with respect to REO Properties an account held
in trust for the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders (the "REO
Account"), which shall be an Eligible Account. The Master Servicer may allow the
Collection Account to serve as the REO Account, subject to separate ledgers for
each REO Property. The Master Servicer may retain or withdraw any interest
income paid on funds deposited in the REO Account.
(c) The Master Servicer shall have full power and authority, subject only to the
specific requirements and prohibitions of this Agreement, to do any and all
things in connection with any REO Property as are consistent with the manner in
which the Master Servicer manages and operates similar property owned by the
Master Servicer or any of its Affiliates, all on such terms and for such period
as the Master Servicer deems to be in the best interests of Certificateholders.
In connection therewith, the Master Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be
112
deposited in the clearing account (which account must be an Eligible Account) in
which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in
connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in
no event more than one Business Day after the Master Servicer's receipt thereof
and shall thereafter deposit in the REO Account, in no event more than two
Business Days after the deposit of such funds into the clearing account, all
revenues received by it with respect to an REO Property and shall withdraw
therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance
of such REO Property including, without limitation:
(i) all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such REO Property;
(ii) all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of such REO Property that
may result in the imposition of a lien thereon; and
(iii) all costs and expenses necessary to maintain such REO Property.
To the extent that amounts on deposit in the REO Account with respect to an REO
Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through
(iii) above with respect to such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall advance
from its own funds as Servicing Advances such amount as is necessary for such
purposes if, but only if, the Master Servicer would make such advances if the
Master Servicer owned the REO Property and if such Servicing Advance would not
constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee
shall:
(i) authorize the Trust Fund to enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with
respect to any REO Property, if the New Lease by its terms will give rise to any
income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property;
(ii) authorize any amount to be received or accrued under any New Lease other
than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property;
(iii) authorize any construction on any REO Property, other than construction
permitted under Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or
(iv) authorize any Person to Directly Operate any REO Property on any date more
than 90 days after its date of acquisition by the Trust Fund;
unless, in any such case, the Master Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel
(the cost of which shall constitute a Servicing Advance), a copy of which shall
be provided to the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee, to the effect that such action
will not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property"
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code at any time that it is held
by REMIC 1, in which case the Master Servicer may take such actions as are
specified in such Opinion of Counsel.
The Master Servicer may contract with any Independent Contractor for the
operation and management of any REO Property, provided that:
113
(i) the terms and conditions of any such contract shall not be inconsistent
herewith;
(ii) any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that
the Independent Contractor pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection
with the operation and management of such REO Property, including those listed
above, and remit all related revenues (net of such costs and expenses) to the
Master Servicer as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty days
following the receipt thereof by such Independent Contractor;
(iii) none of the provisions of this Section 3.23(c) relating to any such
contract or to actions taken through any such Independent Contractor shall be
deemed to relieve the Master Servicer of any of its duties and obligations to
the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders with respect to the operation
and management of any such REO Property; and
(iv) the Master Servicer shall be obligated with respect thereto to the same
extent as if it alone were performing all duties and obligations in connection
with the operation and management of such REO Property.
The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any
Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and
obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Master Servicer by such
Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit
or modify such indemnification. The Master Servicer shall be solely liable for
all fees owed by it to any such Independent Contractor, irrespective of whether
the Master Servicer's compensation pursuant to Section 3.18 is sufficient to pay
such fees; provided, however, that to the extent that any payments made by such
Independent Contractor would constitute Servicing Advances if made by the Master
Servicer, such amounts shall be reimbursable as Servicing Advances made by the
Master Servicer.
(d) In addition to the withdrawals permitted under Section 3.23(c), the Master
Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the REO Account for any REO
Property: (i) to pay itself or any Sub-Servicer unpaid Servicing Fees in respect
of the related Mortgage Loan; and (ii) to reimburse itself or any Sub-Servicer
for unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Advances made in respect of such REO
Property or the related Mortgage Loan. On the Master Servicer Remittance Date,
the Master Servicer shall withdraw from each REO Account maintained by it and
deposit into the Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.10(d)(ii),
for distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance with Section
4.01, the income from the related REO Property received during the prior
calendar month, net of any withdrawals made pursuant to Section 3.23(c) or this
Section 3.23(d).
(e) Subject to the time constraints set forth in Section 3.23(a), each REO
Disposition shall be carried out by the Master Servicer at such price and upon
such terms and conditions as the Master Servicer shall deem necessary or
advisable, as shall be normal and usual in its general servicing activities for
similar properties.
(f) The proceeds from the REO Disposition, net of any amount required by law to
be remitted to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan and net of any
114
payment or reimbursement to the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer as provided
above, shall be deposited in the Distribution Account in accordance with Section
3.10(d)(ii) on the Master Servicer Remittance Date in the month following the
receipt thereof for distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance
with Section 4.01. Any REO Disposition shall be for cash only (unless changes in
the REMIC Provisions made subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other
consideration).
(g) The Master Servicer shall file information returns with respect to the
receipt of mortgage interest received in a trade or business, reports of
foreclosures and abandonments of any Mortgaged Property and cancellation of
indebtedness income with respect to any Mortgaged Property as required by
Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the Code, respectively. Such reports shall be
in form and substance sufficient to meet the reporting requirements imposed by
such Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the Code.
Section 3.24 Obligations of the Master Servicer in Respect of Prepayment
Interest Shortfalls.
The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit into the
Distribution Account on or before 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Master Servicer
Remittance Date from its own funds an amount ("Compensating Interest") equal to
the lesser of (i) the aggregate of the Prepayment Interest Shortfalls for the
related Distribution Date resulting solely from Principal Prepayments during the
related Prepayment Period and (ii) the amount of its aggregate Servicing Fee for
the most recently ended calendar month.
Section 3.25 Obligations of the Master Servicer in Respect of Mortgage Rates and
Monthly Payments.
In the event that a shortfall in any collection on or liability with respect to
any Mortgage Loan results from or is attributable to adjustments to Mortgage
Rates, Monthly Payments or Stated Principal Balances that were made by the
Master Servicer in a manner not consistent with the terms of the related
Mortgage Note and this Agreement, the Master Servicer, upon discovery or receipt
of notice thereof, immediately shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the
Distribution Account from its own funds the amount of any such shortfall and
shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor and
any successor master servicer in respect of any such liability. Such indemnities
shall survive the termination or discharge of this Agreement. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, this Section 3.25 shall not limit the ability of the Master
Servicer to seek recovery of any such amounts from the related Mortgagor under
the terms of the related Mortgage Note, as permitted by law and shall not be an
expense of the Trust.
Section 3.26 Reserve Fund.
No later than the Closing Date, the Trustee, on behalf of the
Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain with itself a separate,
segregated trust account titled, "Reserve Fund, Deutsche Bank National Trust
Company, as Trustee, in trust for registered Holders of Long Beach Mortgage Loan
Trust 2004-3, Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2004-3." The Trustee shall
account for the right to receive payments from the Reserve Fund as property that
the Trustee holds separate and apart from the REMIC Regular Interests.
115
(a) The following amounts shall be deposited into the Reserve Fund:
(i) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall deposit all amounts received
with respect to the Cap Agreements; (ii) On the Closing Date, the Depositor
shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, into the Reserve Fund $1,000;
(iii) On each Distribution Date as to which there is a Net WAC Rate Carryover
Amount payable to any of the Class A Certificates or the Mezzanine Certificates,
the Trustee has been directed by the Holders of the Class C Certificates to, and
therefore shall, deposit into the Reserve Fund the amounts described in Section
4.01(d)(i)(u); and
(iv) On each Distribution Date as to which there are no Net WAC Rate Carryover
Amounts, the Trustee shall deposit into the Reserve Fund on behalf of the
Holders of the Class C Certificates, from amounts otherwise distributable to
such Class C Certificates, an amount such that when added to other amounts
already on deposit in the Reserve Fund, the aggregate amount on deposit therein
is equal to $1,000.
(b) The Reserve Fund shall be segregated into two separate portions, for which
the Trustee shall keep separate accounts. "Portion 1" of the Reserve Fund shall
consist of amounts deposited pursuant to Section 3.26(a)(i), above, plus any
amounts earned on any such funds while on deposit in the Reserve Fund. "Portion
2" of the Reserve Fund shall consist of amounts deposited pursuant to Sections
3.26(a)(ii), (a)(iii), and (a)(iv), above, plus any amounts earned on any such
funds while on deposit in the Reserve Fund. Amounts distributed from the Reserve
Fund under Sections 4.01(d)(ii) and 3.26(c) shall be deemed to be distributed
first from Portion 1 of the Reserve Fund to the extent thereof and then from
Portion 2.
(c) Each Portion of the Reserve Fund shall be treated as an "outside reserve
fund" under applicable Treasury regulations and shall not be part of any REMIC
created hereunder. For federal and state income tax purposes, the Trustee shall
be deemed to be the owner of Portion 1 of the Reserve Fund and no amount shall
be transferred by any REMIC to Portion 1 of the Reserve Fund. For federal and
state income tax purposes, the Holders of the Class C Certificates shall be
deemed to be the owners of Portion 2 of the Reserve Fund and all amounts
deposited into such Portion 2 of the Reserve Fund (other than the initial
deposit therein of $1,000) shall be treated as amounts distributed by REMIC 3 to
REMIC CX in respect of the Class C Interest, and then distributed by REMIC CX to
the Holders of the Class C Certificates. For federal and state income tax
purposes, payments in respect of the Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine
Certificates of Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts will not be payments with respect
to a "regular interest" in a REMIC within the meaning of Code Section
860G(a)(1).
(d) By accepting a Class C Certificate, each Holder of a Class C Certificate
shall be deemed to have directed the Trustee to, and the Trustee shall pursuant
to such direction, deposit into the Reserve Fund the amounts described in
116
Section 3.26(a)(iii) and (a)(iv) above on each Distribution Date. By accepting a
Class C Certificate, each Holder of a Class C Certificate further agrees that
such direction is given for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which is acknowledged by such acceptance.
(e) At the direction of the Holders of a majority in Percentage Interest in the
Class C Certificates, the Trustee shall direct any depository institution
maintaining Portion 2 of the Reserve Fund to invest the funds in such account in
one or more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and
maturing, unless payable on demand, (i) no later than the Business Day
immediately preceding the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn
from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if a Person other than the Trustee
or an Affiliate manages or advises such investment, and (ii) no later than the
date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant
to this Agreement, if the Trustee or an Affiliate manages or advises such
investment. If no investment direction of the Holders of a majority in
Percentage Interest in the Class C Certificates with respect to Portion 2 of the
Reserve Fund is received by the Trustee, the Trustee shall invest the funds in
such Portion in Permitted Investments managed by the Trustee or an Affiliate of
the kind described in clause (vi) of the definition of Permitted Investments.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any funds in Portion 2 of the Reserve Fund shall
be invested in Deutsche Bank Cash Management Fund 541 for so long as such
investment complies with clause (vi) of the definition of Permitted Investments.

an Eligible Account.

Section 3.27 Advance Facility.
(a) The Trustee, on behalf of the Trust Fund, at the direction of the Master
Servicer and with the consent of the NIMS Insurer, is hereby authorized to enter
into a facility with any Person which provides that such Person (an "Advancing
Person") may make all or a portion of the Advances and/or Servicing Advances to
the Trust Fund under this Agreement, although no such facility shall reduce or
otherwise affect the Master Servicer's obligation to fund such Advances and/or
Servicing Advances. To the extent that an Advancing Person makes all or a
portion of any Advance or any Servicing Advance and provides the Trustee with
notice acknowledged by the Master Servicer that such Advancing Person is
entitled to reimbursement, such Advancing Person shall be entitled to receive
reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement for such amount to the extent provided
in Section 3.27(b). Such notice from the Advancing Person shall specify the
amount of the reimbursement and shall specify which Section of this Agreement
permits the applicable Advance or Servicing Advance to be reimbursed. The
Trustee shall be entitled to rely without independent investigation on the
Advancing Person's statement with respect to the amount of any reimbursement
117
pursuant to this Section 3.27 and with respect to the Advancing Person's
statement with respect to the Section of this Agreement that permits the
applicable Advance or Servicing Advance to be reimbursed. An Advancing Person
whose obligations are limited to the making of Advances and/or Servicing
Advances shall not be required to meet the qualifications of a Master Servicer
or a Sub-Servicer pursuant to Article VI hereof and will not be deemed to be a
Sub-Servicer under this Agreement. If the terms of a facility proposed to be
entered into with an Advancing Person by the Trust Fund would not materially and
adversely affect the interests of any Certificateholder, then the NIMS Insurer
shall not withhold its consent to the Trust Fund's entering into such facility.
(b) If an advancing facility is entered into, then the Master Servicer shall not
be permitted to reimburse itself under any Section specified or for any amount
specified by the Advancing Person in the notice described under Section 3.27(a)
above and acknowledged by the Master Servicer prior to the remittance to the
Trust Fund, but instead the Master Servicer shall include such amounts in the
applicable remittance to the Trustee made pursuant to Section 3.10(a). The
Trustee is hereby authorized to pay to the Advancing Person reimbursements for
Advances and Servicing Advances from the Distribution Account to the same extent
the Master Servicer would have been permitted to reimburse itself for such
Advances and/or Servicing Advances in accordance with the specified Sections had
the Master Servicer itself made such Advance or Servicing Advance. The Trustee
is hereby authorized to pay directly to the Advancing Person such portion of the
Servicing Fee as the parties to any advancing facility may agree.
(c) All Advances and Servicing Advances made pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement shall be deemed made and shall be reimbursed on a "first in-first out"
(FIFO) basis.
Section 3.28 Policy; Claims Under the PMI Policy
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Article III, the
Master Servicer shall not agree to any modification or assumption of a PMI
Mortgage Loan or take any other action with respect to a PMI Mortgage Loan that
could result in denial of coverage under the PMI Policy. The Master Servicer
shall notify the PMI Insurer that the Trustee, as trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders, is the insured, as that term is defined in the PMI Policy,
of each PMI Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer shall, on behalf of the Trustee,
prepare and file on a timely basis with the PMI Insurer, with a copy to the
Trustee, all claims which may be made under the PMI Policy with respect to the
PMI Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall take all actions required under
the PMI Policy as a condition to the payment of any such claim. Any amount
received from the PMI Insurer with respect to any such PMI Mortgage Loan shall
be deposited by the Master Servicer, no later than two Business Days following
receipt thereof, into the Collection Account.
Section 3.29 Reserved.
Section 3.30 Cap Agreements.
(a) The Depositor hereby directs the Trustee to execute and deliver on behalf of
the Trust the Cap Assignment and authorizes the Trustee to perform its
obligations thereunder and under each of the Cap Agreements on behalf of the
Trust in accordance with the terms of the Cap Assignment and each of the Cap
Agreements.
(b) If the rating of the Cap Provider's obligations is withdrawn or reduced (in
the manner set forth in Section 4(14) of each of the Cap Agreements) below one
of the Approved Rating Thresholds (as defined in Section 4(14) of each of the
Cap Agreements), the Trustee shall, promptly after a Responsible Officer of the
118
Trustee has received actual knowledge or written notice of the reduction or
withdrawal of the rating (it being understood that the Trustee has no duty to
monitor the ratings of the Cap Provider), request the Cap Provider to take
actions required to be taken by the Cap Provider by Section 4(14) of each of the
Cap Agreements.
(c) In the event that any of the Cap Agreements is canceled or otherwise
terminated for any reason (other than the exhaustion of the interest rate
protection provided thereby or replacement of such Cap Agreement by the Cap
Provider in accordance with Section 3.30(b)), the Depositor shall, to the extent
a replacement contract is available, direct the Trustee to obtain from a
counterparty designated by the Depositor a replacement contract comparable to
such Cap Agreement (which both such counterparty and such replacement contract
shall be acceptable to the Trustee and the Holders of the Certificates entitled
to at least 50% of the Voting Rights) providing interest rate protection which
is equal to the then-existing protection provided by such Cap Agreement,
provided, however, that if the cost of any such replacement contract providing
the same interest rate protection would be greater than the amount of any early
termination payment received by the Trustee under the related Cap Agreement, the
amount of interest rate protection provided by such replacement contract may be
reduced to a level such that the cost of such replacement contract shall not
exceed the amount of such early termination payment.

Certificates, up to the amount of the related Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount, (B)
amounts in the Reserve Fund received with respect to the Class A-2/3/4 Cap
Agreement shall be distributed to the Group II Senior Certificates, up to the

(ii) second, amounts deposited in the Reserve Fund pursuant to Section
4.01(d)(i)(s) will be distributed to the Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine
Certificates, up to the amount of the related Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount to
the extent not paid pursuant to Section 4.01(d)(ii)(i), allocated among the
Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates, pro rata, based on their
Certificate Principal Balances, to the extent of such amounts remaining in the
Reserve Fund.
On the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class
A-1 Certificates has been reduced to zero, after making all other distributions
on such Distribution Date (including to the Class A Certificates and the

itself all remaining amounts on deposit in Portion 1 of the Reserve Fund which

the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balance of the Group II
Senior Certificates has been reduced to zero, after making all other

Reserve Fund which were deposited in the Reserve Fund on account of the Class
A-2/3/4 Cap Agreement. On the Distribution Date on which the Certificate
127
Principal Balance of the Mezzanine Certificates has been reduced to zero, after
making all other distributions on such Distribution Date (including to the Class
A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates out of the Reserve Fund), the
Trustee shall distribute to itself all remaining amounts on deposit in Portion 1
of the Reserve Fund which were deposited in the Reserve Fund on account of the
Subordinate Cap Agreement. On the Distribution Date on which the Trustee has
distributed to itself all remaining amounts on deposit in Portion 1 of the
Reserve Fund, the Trustee shall distribute all remaining amounts in Portion 2 of
the Reserve Fund to the Class C Certificates.
(iii) On each Distribution Date, the Prepayment Charge Cashflow for such
Distribution Date shall be withdrawn from the Distribution Account and
distributed by the Trustee to the Certificates as part of the Net Monthly Excess
Cashflow for such Distribution Date.
(e) Without limiting the provisions of Section 9.01(b), by acceptance of the
Class R Certificates the Holders of the Class R Certificates agree, and it is
the understanding of the parties hereto, for so long as any of the NIM Notes are
outstanding, to pledge their rights to receive any amounts otherwise
distributable to the Holders of the Class R Certificates (and such rights are
hereby assigned and transferred) to the Holders of the Class C Certificates to
be paid to the Holders of the Class C Certificates. By acceptance of the Class R
Certificates, the Holders of the Class R Certificates direct the Trustee to pay
any amounts due to the Holders of the Class R Certificates on the first
Distribution Date to the Holders of the Class C Certificates.
(f) All distributions made with respect to each Class of Certificates on each
Distribution Date shall be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates
in such Class based on their respective Percentage Interests. Payments in
respect of each Class of Certificates on each Distribution Date will be made to
the Holders of the respective Class of record on the related Record Date (except
as otherwise provided in this Section 4.01 or Section 9.01 respecting the final
distribution on such Class), based on the aggregate Percentage Interest
represented by their respective Certificates, and shall be made by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to the account of any such Holder at a bank or
other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Holder shall have
so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the
Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and is the registered
owner of Certificates having an initial aggregate Certificate Principal Balance
or Notional Amount that is in excess of the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 or (ii)
two-thirds of the Original Class Certificate Principal Balance or Original Class
Notional Amount of such Class of Certificates, or otherwise by check mailed by
first class mail to the address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate
Register. The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like
manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the
Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or such other location specified in the
notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.
Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be paid to the
Depository, which shall credit the amount of such distribution to the accounts
of its Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each
Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to
the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating
brokerage firm (a "brokerage firm" or "indirect participating firm") for which
it acts as agent. Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds
to the Certificate Owners that it represents. All such credits and disbursements
with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate are to be made by the Depository and
the Depository Participants in accordance with the provisions of the
128
Certificates. None of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the
Seller shall have any responsibility therefor except as otherwise provided by
applicable law.
(g) The rights of the Certificateholders to receive distributions in respect of
the Certificates, and all interests of the Certificateholders in such
distributions, shall be as set forth in this Agreement. None of the Holders of
any Class of Certificates, the Trustee or the Master Servicer shall in any way
be responsible or liable to the Holders of any other Class of Certificates in
respect of amounts properly previously distributed on the Certificates.
(h) Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, whenever the Trustee expects
that the final distribution with respect to any Class of Certificates shall be
made on the next Distribution Date, the Trustee shall, no later than three (3)
days before the related Distribution Date, mail to the NIMS Insurer and each
Holder on such date of such Class of Certificates a notice to the effect that:
(i) the Trustee expects that the final distribution with respect to such Class
of Certificates will be made on such Distribution Date but only upon
presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office of the Trustee
therein specified, and
(ii) no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from and after the end of the
related Accrual Period.
Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class
on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to
tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held in trust by
the Trustee and credited to the account of the appropriate non-tendering Holder
or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to
this Section 4.01(h) shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six
months after the time specified in such notice, the Trustee shall mail a second
notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their
Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with
respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such
Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee
shall, directly or through an agent, mail a final notice to the remaining
non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates but
shall continue to hold any remaining funds for the benefit of non-tendering
Certificateholders. The costs and expenses of maintaining the funds in trust and
of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets remaining
in such trust fund. If within one year after the final notice any such
Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall
pay to Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc. and WaMu Capital Corp., equally, all such
amounts, and all rights of non-tendering Certificateholders in or to such
amounts shall thereupon cease. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any
Certificateholder on any amount held in trust by the Trustee as a result of such
Certificateholder's failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment
thereof in accordance with this Section 4.01(h).
(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) in no event shall the
Certificate Principal Balance of a Mezzanine Certificate be reduced more than
once in respect of any particular amount both (a) allocated to such Certificate
in respect of Realized Losses pursuant to Section 4.06 and (b) distributed to
129
such Certificate in reduction of the Certificate Principal Balance thereof
pursuant to this Section 4.01, and (ii) in no event shall the Uncertificated
Principal Balance of a REMIC Regular Interest be reduced more than once in
respect of any particular amount both (a) allocated to such REMIC Regular
Interest in respect of Realized Losses pursuant to Section 4.06 and (b)
distributed on such REMIC Regular Interest in reduction of the Uncertificated
Principal Balance thereof pursuant to Section 4.05.
(j) Any amounts distributed to REMIC CX on any Distribution Date in respect of
the Class C Interest under Section 4.01(d)(i) shall, on such Distribution Date,
be distributed by REMIC CX to the Holders of the Class C Certificates. Any
amounts remaining in REMIC CX shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class
R-CX Certificates in respect of the Class R-CX Interest. For the avoidance of
doubt, the provisions of Sections 4.01(f), 4.01(g) and 4.01(h) shall apply to

the Master Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee in

for the related Distribution Date either (i) from its own funds or (ii) from the
Collection Account, to the extent of funds held therein for future distribution
(in which case, it will cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of
Collection Account that amounts held for future distribution have been, as
permitted by this Section 4.04, used by the Master Servicer in discharge of any
such Advance) or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii)
aggregating the total amount of Advances to be made by the Master Servicer with

distribution and so used shall be appropriately reflected in the Master
Servicer's records and replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the
Collection Account on or before any future Master Servicer Remittance Date to
the extent that the Available Funds for the related Distribution Date
(determined without regard to Advances to be made on the Master Servicer
Remittance Date) shall be less than the total amount that would be distributed
to the Classes of Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01 on such
Distribution Date if such amounts held for future distributions had not been so

Remittance Date in the event that the amount remitted by the Master Servicer to
the Trustee on such date is less than the Advances required to be made by the
Master Servicer for the related Distribution Date.

payment of the Mortgage Loan in full or the recovery of all Liquidation Proceeds
thereon.
(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Advance or Servicing
Advance shall be required to be made hereunder by the Master Servicer if such
Advance or Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable
Advance. The determination by the Master Servicer that it has made a
Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed Advance or Servicing Advance, if
made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be evidenced by an
135
Officers' Certificate of the Master Servicer delivered to the NIMS Insurer, the
Depositor and the Trustee.

Principal Balance of the Mezzanine Certificates immediately prior to the
relevant Distribution Date, before reduction thereof by any Realized Losses or
increase thereof by any Subsequent Recoveries, in each case to be allocated to
such Mezzanine Certificates on such Distribution Date.
Any allocation of Realized Losses to a Mezzanine Certificate on any Distribution
Date shall be made by reducing the Certificate Principal Balance thereof by the
amount so allocated. No allocations of any Realized Losses shall be made to the
Class A Certificates or the Class S Certificates. Any Realized Losses that
reduce the distributions in respect of and/or the Uncertificated Principal
Balance of the Class C Interest, shall be allocated by the Trustee to reduce the
distributions in respect of and/or the Certificate Principal Balance of the
Class C Certificates.

Regular Interest LT2-1SUB, REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT2-2GRP, REMIC 2 Regular
Interest LT2-2SUB, and REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT2-XX, as follows:
after all distributions have been made on such Distribution Date, Realized
Losses shall be applied in such a manner as to keep the Uncertificated Principal
Balance of each REMIC 2 Regular Interest ending with the designation "GRP" equal
to 0.01% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the
related Loan Group (determined as of the current Distribution Date), and the
Uncertificated Principal Balance of each REMIC 2 Regular Interest ending with
the designation "SUB" equal to 0.01% of the excess of (x) the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group as of the
current Distribution Date over (y) the Certificate Principal Balance of the
Class A Certificates related to such Loan Group immediately prior to such
Distribution Date (except that if such excess is larger than it was for the
preceding Distribution Date, the least amount of Realized Loss shall be
142
allocated such that the REMIC 2 Subordinated Ratio is maintained); and then to
REMIC 2 Regular Interest LT2-XX.
(e) If on any Distribution Date Allocated Realized Loss Amounts are to be

references above to the Certificate Principal Balance of the Mezzanine
Certificates shall be to the Certificate Principal Balance of the Mezzanine
Certificates immediately prior to the relevant Distribution Date, before
reduction thereof by any Realized Losses or increase thereof by any Subsequent
Recoveries, in each case to be allocated to the Mezzanine Certificates on such
Distribution Date.
Any Allocated Realized Loss Amounts to be reinstated to a Certificate on any
Distribution Date due to Subsequent Recoveries shall be made by increasing the
Certificate Principal Balance thereof by the amount so reinstated. No
allocations of any Subsequent Recoveries shall be made to the Class A
Certificates or the Class S Certificates.
(f) If on any Distribution Date Subsequent Recoveries occurred in the related

in the same proportions, but in reverse order, as the Realized Losses were
allocated under Section 4.06(d)(ii).
Section 4.07 Compliance with Withholding Requirements.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Trustee shall comply
with all federal withholding requirements respecting payments to
Certificateholders of interest or original issue discount that the Trustee
reasonably believes are applicable under the Code. The consent of
Certificateholders shall not be required for such withholding. In the event the
Trustee does withhold any amount from interest or original issue discount
payments or advances thereof to any Certificateholder pursuant to federal
withholding requirements, the Trustee shall indicate the amount withheld to such
Certificateholders.
143
Section 4.08 Commission Reporting.
(a) Within 15 days after each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall, in
accordance with industry standards and applicable regulations, file with the
Commission via the Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval system, a
Form 8-K with a copy of the statement to Certificateholders for such
Distribution Date as an Exhibit thereto. Prior to January 30, in the year
following the year of execution of this Agreement, the Trustee shall file in
accordance with industry standards a Form 15 Suspension Notification with
respect to the Trust Fund, if applicable, unless notified by the Depositor by
January 10 or the preceding Business Day of such year not to file such a Form 15
with respect to the Trust Fund. Prior to March 30, in the year following the
year of execution of this Agreement, the Depositor shall execute and the Trustee
shall file a Form 10-K, in substance conforming to industry standards and
applicable regulations, with respect to the Trust Fund together with the
accompanying certification described below. The Trustee shall provide the Form
10-K to the Depositor by March 20 (or the preceding Business Day if such day is
not a Business Day) of the year that such Form 10-K is required to be filed. The
Depositor shall execute such Form 10-K and return the original to the Trustee by
March 25 (or the preceding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day). The
Trustee shall prepare, execute, file and deliver on behalf of the Depositor Form
8-Ks required to be filed under the Exchange Act so long as no certification in
respect of such Form 8-K is required by the Commission. The Depositor shall
prepare and the appropriate person shall execute, in accordance with the
Exchange Act or any other applicable law, any certification required under the
Exchange Act or any other applicable law to accompany the Form 10-K or any other
periodic report. The Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee a limited power of
attorney to execute and file each such document on behalf of the Depositor,
provided, however, that the Trustee shall not execute the Form 10-K on behalf of
the Depositor. Such power of attorney shall continue until the earlier of (i)
receipt by the Trustee from the Depositor of written termination of such power
of attorney and (ii) the termination of the Trust Fund. The Depositor agrees to
promptly furnish to the Trustee, from time to time upon request, such further
information, reports and financial statements within its control related to this
Agreement and the Mortgage Loans as the Trustee reasonably deems appropriate to
prepare and file all necessary reports with the Commission. The Trustee shall
have no responsibility to file any items other than those specified in this
Section.
ARTICLE V ...
THE CERTIFICATES
Section 5.01 The Certificates.
(a) The Certificates in the aggregate will represent the entire beneficial
ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans and all other assets included in REMIC
1.
The Certificates will be substantially in the forms annexed hereto as Exhibits
A-1 through A-18. The Certificates of each Class will be issuable in registered
form only, in denominations of authorized Percentage Interests as described in
the definition thereof. Each Certificate will share ratably in all rights of the
related Class.
144
Upon original issue, the Certificates shall be executed by the Trustee and
authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, to or upon the order of the
Depositor. The Certificates shall be executed and attested by manual or
facsimile signature on behalf of the Trustee by an authorized signatory.
Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were
at any time the proper officers of the Trustee shall bind the Trustee,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such
offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not
hold such offices at the date of such Certificates. No Certificate shall be
entitled to any benefit under this Agreement or be valid for any purpose, unless
there appears on such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially
in the form provided herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and
such certificate of authentication shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.
(b) The Book Entry Certificates shall initially be issued as one or more
Certificates held by the Book-Entry Custodian or, if appointed to hold such
Certificates as provided below, the Depository and registered in the name of the
Depository or its nominee and, except as provided below, registration of the
Book-Entry Certificates may not be transferred by the Trustee except to another
Depository that agrees to hold the Book-Entry Certificates for the respective
Certificate Owners with Ownership Interests therein. The Certificate Owners
shall hold their respective Ownership Interests in and to the Book-Entry
Certificates through the book-entry facilities of the Depository and, except as
provided below, shall not be entitled to definitive, fully registered
Certificates ("Definitive Certificates") in respect of such Ownership Interests.
All transfers by Certificate Owners of their respective Ownership Interests in
the Book-Entry Certificates shall be made in accordance with the procedures
established by the Depository Participant or brokerage firm representing such
Certificate Owner. Each Depository Participant shall only transfer the Ownership
Interests in the Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners it represents or
of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the
Depository's normal procedures. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed as the
Book-Entry Custodian and hereby agrees to act as such in accordance herewith and
in accordance with the agreement that it has with the Depository authorizing it
to act as such. The Book-Entry Custodian may, and if it is no longer qualified
to act as such, the Book-Entry Custodian shall, appoint, by a written instrument
delivered to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and if the Trustee is not the
Book-Entry Custodian, the Trustee and any other transfer agent (including the
Depository or any successor Depository) to act as Book-Entry Custodian under
such conditions as the predecessor Book-Entry Custodian and the Depository or
any successor Depository may prescribe, provided that the predecessor Book-Entry
Custodian shall not be relieved of any of its duties or responsibilities by
reason of any such appointment of other than the Depository. If the Trustee
resigns or is removed in accordance with the terms hereof, successor Trustee or,
if it so elects, the Depository shall immediately succeed to its predecessor's
duties as Book-Entry Custodian. The Depositor shall have the right to inspect,
and to obtain copies of, any Certificates held as Book-Entry Certificates by the
Book-Entry Custodian.
The Trustee, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor may for all
purposes (including the making of payments due on the Book-Entry Certificates)
deal with the Depository as the authorized representative of the Certificate
Owners with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates for the purposes of the
exercise by Certificateholders of the rights of Certificateholders hereunder.
The rights of Certificate Owners with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates
145
shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such
Certificate Owners and the Depository Participants and brokerage firms
representing such Certificate Owners. The Depositor is hereby authorized to
execute and deliver on behalf of the Trust the Letter of Representations to be
submitted on behalf of the Trust to the Depository and to perform the
obligations of the Issuer (as defined in the Letter of Representations)
thereunder. The Trustee is hereby authorized to execute and deliver as agent of
the Trust the Letter of Representations to be submitted on behalf of the Trust
to the Depository and to perform the obligations of the Agent (as defined in the
Letter of Representations) thereunder. Multiple requests and directions from,
and votes of, the Depository as Holder of the Book-Entry Certificates with
respect to any particular matter shall not be deemed inconsistent if they are
made with respect to different Certificate Owners. The Trustee may establish a
reasonable record date in connection with solicitations of consents from or
voting by Certificateholders and shall give notice to the Depository of such
record date.
If (i)(A) the Depositor advises the Trustee in writing that the Depository is no
longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as Depository,
and (B) the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the
Depositor notifies the Trustee and the Depository of its intent to terminate the
book-entry system through the Depository and, upon receipt of notice of such
intent from the Depository, the Depository Participants with a position in the
Book Entry Certificates agree to initiate such termination, or (iii) after the
occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default, Certificate Owners
representing in the aggregate not less than 51% of the Ownership Interests of
the Book-Entry Certificates advise the Trustee through the Depository, in
writing, that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Depository is
no longer in the best interests of the Certificate Owners, the Trustee shall
notify all Certificate Owners, through the Depository, of the occurrence of any
such event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to Certificate
Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Trustee of the Book-Entry
Certificates by the Book-Entry Custodian or the Depository, as applicable,
accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for registration of
transfer, the Trustee shall issue the Definitive Certificates. Such Definitive
Certificates will be issued in minimum denominations of $25,000, except that any
beneficial ownership that was represented by a Book-Entry Certificate in an
amount less than $25,000 immediately prior to the issuance of a Definitive
Certificate shall be issued in a minimum denomination equal to the amount
represented by such Book-Entry Certificate. None of the Depositor, the Master
Servicer or the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in the delivery of such
instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on,
such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates all references
herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the Depository shall be
deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Trustee, to the extent applicable
with respect to such Definitive Certificates, and the Trustee shall recognize
the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.
Section 5.02 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
(a) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at one of the offices or agencies to be
appointed by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.12 a
Certificate Register for the Certificates in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration
of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein
provided.
143
(b) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Class C Certificate or
Residual Certificate shall be made unless such disposition is exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933
Act"), and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with
the 1933 Act and laws. In the event of any such transfer of any Class C
Certificate or Residual Certificate (other than in connection with (i) the
initial transfer of any Class C Certificate or Residual Certificates by the
Depositor to the Seller, (ii) the transfer of any Class C Certificate or
Residual Certificates by the Seller to an Affiliate of the Seller or to a trust,
the depositor of which is an Affiliate of the Seller, (iii) the transfer of any
Class C Certificate or Residual Certificates by an Affiliate of the Seller to
one or more entities sponsored by such Affiliate or to a trust, the depositor of
which is one or more entities sponsored by such Affiliate or (iv) a subsequent
transfer of any Class C Certificates or Residual Certificates to the Seller or
its designee by such entity or trust described in clauses (ii) or (iii) above to
which the Certificates were previously transferred in reliance on clauses (ii)
or (iii) above) (i) unless such transfer is made in reliance upon Rule 144A (as
evidenced by the investment letter delivered to the Trustee, in substantially
the form attached hereto as Exhibit J) under the 1933 Act, the Trustee and the
Depositor shall 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 or is being made pursuant to the 1933 Act, which Opinion of Counsel
shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Depositor or (ii) the Trustee
shall require the transferor to execute a transferor certificate (in
substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit L) and the transferee to
execute an investment letter (in substantially the form attached hereto as
Exhibit J) acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Depositor and the Trustee certifying to the Depositor and the Trustee the
facts surrounding such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense
of the Trustee or the Depositor. The Holder of a Class C Certificate or Residual
Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to,
indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor and the Trust Fund against any liability
that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance
with such federal and state laws.
(c) Each Transferee of a Class A Certificate, Class S Certificate or Mezzanine
Certificate will be deemed to have represented by virtue of its purchase or
holding of such Certificate (or interest therein) that either (a) such
Transferee is not a Plan or purchasing such Certificate with Plan Assets as
defined below, (b) it has acquired and is holding such Certificate in reliance
on Prohibited Transaction Exemption ("PTE") 90-59 at 55 F.R. 36724 (1990) and

22, 2002) (the "Exemption"), and that it understands that there are certain
conditions to the availability of the Exemption including that each of the Cap
Agreements is an "eligible yield supplement agreement" within the meaning of PTE
2000-58 and that such Certificate must be rated, at the time of purchase, not
lower than "BBB-" (or its equivalent) by a Rating Agency, or (c) the following
conditions are satisfied: (i) such Transferee is an insurance company, (ii) the
source of funds used to purchase or hold such Certificate (or interest therein)
is an "insurance company general account" (as defined in U.S. Department of

conditions set forth in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied.
147
No transfer of a Class C Certificate or Residual Certificate or any interest
therein shall be made to any Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code,
any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any
Person acquiring such Certificates with "Plan Assets" of a Plan within the
meaning of the Department of Labor regulation promulgated at 29 C.F.R. ss.
2510.3-101 ("Plan Assets") unless the Depositor, the Trustee and the Master
Servicer are provided with an Opinion of Counsel which establishes to the
satisfaction of the Depositor, the Trustee and the Master Servicer that the
purchase of such Certificates is permissible under applicable law, will not
constitute or result in any prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975
of the Code and will not subject the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee
or the Trust Fund to any obligation or liability (including obligations or
liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those
undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense
of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust Fund. Neither an
Opinion of Counsel nor any certification will be required in connection with the
(i) initial transfer of any Class C Certificate or Residual Certificates by the
Depositor to the Seller, (ii) the transfer of any Class C Certificate or
Residual Certificates by the Seller to an Affiliate of the Seller or to a trust,

which is one or more entities sponsored by such Affiliate or (iv) a subsequent
transfer of any Class C Certificates or Residual Certificates to the Seller or
its designee by such entity or trust described in clauses (ii) or (iii) above to
which the Certificates were previously transferred in reliance on clauses (ii)
or (iii) above (in which case, the Depositor, the Seller, any such Affiliate and
such entities sponsored by such Affiliate shall have deemed to have represented
that the applicable transferee is not a Plan or a Person investing Plan Assets)
and the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon a representation
(which, upon the request of the Trustee, shall be a written representation) from
the Depositor of the status of each transferee, the Seller or such an Affiliate.
Each transferee of a Class C Certificate or Residual Certificate shall sign a
letter substantially in the form of Exhibit I to demonstrate its compliance with
this Section 5.02(c) (other than in connection with the (i) initial transfer of
any Class C Certificate or Residual Certificates by the Depositor to the Seller,
(ii) the transfer of any Class C Certificate or Residual Certificates by the
Seller to an Affiliate of the Seller or to a trust, the depositor of which is an
Affiliate of the Seller, (iii) the transfer of any Class C Certificates or
Residual Certificates by an Affiliate of the Seller to one or more entities

C Certificates or Residual Certificates to the Seller or its designee by such
entity or trust described in clauses (ii) or (iii) above to which the
Certificates were previously transferred in reliance on clauses (ii) or (iii)
above).
If any Certificate or any interest therein is acquired or held in violation of
the provisions of the preceding paragraphs, the next preceding permitted
beneficial owner will be treated as the beneficial owner of that Certificate
retroactive to the date of transfer to the purported beneficial owner. Any
purported beneficial owner whose acquisition or holding of any such Certificate
or interest therein was effected in violation of the provisions of the preceding
paragraph shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Trustee and the Trust Fund from and against any and all liabilities, claims,
costs or expenses incurred by those parties as a result of that acquisition or
holding.
(d) 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
148
Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and to have
irrevocably appointed the Depositor or its designee as its attorney-in-fact to
negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause (v) below and to execute
all instruments of transfer and to do all other things necessary in connection
with any such sale, and the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the following
provisions:
(i) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly notify the
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 as a condition to registration of the
transfer, require delivery to it, in form and substance satisfactory to it, of
each of the following:
A. an affidavit in the form of Exhibit K hereto from the proposed transferee to
the effect that such transferee is a Permitted Transferee and that it is not
acquiring its Ownership Interest in the Residual Certificate that is the subject
of the proposed transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person who is
not a Permitted Transferee; and
B. a covenant of the proposed transferee to the effect that the proposed
transferee agrees to be bound by and to abide by the transfer restrictions
applicable to the Residual Certificates.
(iv) Any attempted or purported transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Residual
Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section shall be absolutely
null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee. If any
purported transferee shall, in violation of the provisions of this Section,
become a Holder of a Residual Certificate, then the prior Holder of such
Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee shall, upon discovery that
the registration of transfer of such Residual Certificate was not in fact
permitted by this Section, be restored to all rights as Holder thereof
retroactive to the date of registration of transfer of such Residual
Certificate. The Trustee shall not be under any liability to any Person for any
registration of transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted
by this Section or for making any distributions due on such Residual Certificate
to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder
under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the Trustee received the
documents specified in clause (iii). The Trustee shall be entitled to recover
from any Holder of a Residual Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted
Transferee at the time such distributions were made all distributions made on
such Residual Certificate. Any such distributions so recovered by the Trustee
shall be distributed and delivered by the Trustee to the prior Holder of such
Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee.
149
(v) If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this
Section, then the Trustee shall have the right but not the obligation, without
notice to the Holder of such Residual Certificate or any other Person having an
Ownership Interest therein, to notify the Depositor to arrange for the sale of
such Residual Certificate. The proceeds of such sale, net of commissions (which
may include commissions payable to the Depositor or its affiliates in connection
with such sale), expenses and taxes due, if any, will be remitted by the Trustee
to the previous Holder of such Residual Certificate that is a Permitted
Transferee, except that in the event that the Trustee determines that the Holder
of such Residual Certificate may be liable for any amount due under this Section
or any other provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee may withhold a
corresponding amount from such remittance as security for such claim. The terms
and conditions of any sale under this clause (v) shall be determined in the sole
discretion of the Trustee and it shall not be liable to any Person having an
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate as a result of its exercise of such
discretion.
(vi) If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership
Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this
Section, then the Trustee will provide to the Internal Revenue Service, and to
the persons designated in Section 860E(e)(3) of the Code, information needed to
compute the tax imposed under Section 860E(e)(1) of the Code on such transfer.
The foregoing provisions of this Section shall cease to apply to transfers
occurring on or after the date on which there shall have been delivered to the
Trustee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, (i) written
notification from each Rating Agency that the removal of the restrictions on
Transfer set forth in this Section will not cause such Rating Agency to
downgrade its rating of any of the Other NIM Notes, the Insured NIM Notes
(without giving effect to any insurance policy issued by the NIMS Insurer) or
the Certificates and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such removal
will not cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC.
(e) Subject to the preceding subsections, upon surrender for registration of
transfer of any Certificate at any office or agency of the Trustee designated
from time to time for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.12, the Trustee shall
execute and authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated Transferee
or Transferees, one or more new Certificates of the same Class of a like
aggregate Percentage Interest.
(f) At the option of the Holder thereof, any Certificate may be exchanged for
other Certificates of the same Class with authorized denominations and a like
aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of such Certificate to be
exchanged at any office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose
pursuant to Section 8.12. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for
exchange the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver the Certificates
which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every
Certificate presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so
required by the Trustee) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in the form satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by,
the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
150
(g) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange
of Certificates of any Class, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be
canceled by the Trustee and disposed of pursuant to its standard procedures.
Section 5.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.
If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee or the Trustee
receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Certificate and (ii) there is delivered to the Trustee and the Depositor and (in
the case of a Class C Certificate) the NIMS Insurer such security or indemnity
as may be required by them to save each of them, and the Trust Fund, harmless,
then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee that such Certificate has been
acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and
deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and Percentage Interest.
Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Trustee may
require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including
the fees and expenses of the Trustee) in connection therewith. Any duplicate
Certificate issued pursuant to this Section, shall constitute complete and
indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued,
whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any
time.
Section 5.04 Persons Deemed Owners.
The Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and any agent
of the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer may treat
the Person, including a Depository, in whose name any Certificate is registered
as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions
pursuant to Section 4.01 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the
Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer nor any agent of
any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
ARTICLE VI ..
THE MASTER SERVICER AND THE DEPOSITOR
Section 6.01 Liability of the Master Servicer and the Depositor.
The Depositor and the Master Servicer each shall be liable in accordance
herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed by this
Agreement and undertaken hereunder by the Depositor and the Master Servicer
herein.
Section 6.02 Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor or the Master Servicer.
Subject to the following paragraph, the Depositor will keep in full effect its
existence, rights and franchises as a corporation under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its incorporation. Subject to the following paragraph, the
Master Servicer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as
a corporation under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and its
151
qualification as an approved conventional seller/servicer for Xxxxxx Xxx or
Xxxxxxx Mac in good standing. The Depositor and the Master Servicer each will
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.
The Depositor or the Master Servicer may be merged or consolidated with or into
any Person, or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to any Person, in
which case any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the
Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to
the business of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, shall be the successor of
the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder, without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the
parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided,
however, that the successor or surviving Person to the Master Servicer shall be
qualified to service mortgage loans on behalf of Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac; and
provided further that the Rating Agencies' ratings of the Other NIM Notes, the
Class A Certificates, the Class S Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates
and the shadow rating of the Insured NIM Notes (without giving effect to any
insurance policy issued by the NIMS Insurer) in effect immediately prior to such
merger or consolidation will not be qualified, reduced or withdrawn as a result
thereof (as evidenced by a letter to such effect from the Rating Agencies to the
Trustee).
Section 6.03 Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the Master Servicer
and Others.
None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any of the directors, officers,
employees or agents of the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be under any
liability to the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders for any action taken or
for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this
Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision
shall not protect the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any such person against
any breach of warranties, representations or covenants made herein, or against
any specific liability imposed on the Master Servicer or the Depositor, as
applicable, pursuant hereto, or against any liability which would otherwise be
imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the
performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and
duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Depositor or the Master Servicer may rely in good faith
on any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and
submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor,
the Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the
Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be indemnified and held harmless by the
Trust Fund against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with
any legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any
loss, liability or expense relating to any specific Mortgage Loan or Mortgage
Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise
reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) or any loss, liability or expense
incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the
performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of
obligations and duties hereunder. Neither the Depositor nor the Master Servicer
shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action
152
unless such action is related to its respective duties under this Agreement and,
in its opinion, does not involve it in any expense or liability; provided,
however, that each of the Depositor and the Master Servicer may in its
discretion undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable
with respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto
and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, unless the
Depositor or the Master Servicer acts without the consent of Holders of
Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights (which consent shall
not be necessary in the case of litigation or other legal action by either to
enforce their respective rights or defend themselves hereunder), the legal
expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom (except
any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of
reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder) shall be expenses, costs
and liabilities of the Trust Fund, and the Depositor and the Master Servicer
shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as and
to the extent provided in Section 3.11, any such right of reimbursement being
prior to the rights of the Certificateholders to receive any amount in the
Collection Account.
The Master Servicer (except the Trustee to the extent it has succeeded the
Master Servicer as required hereunder) indemnifies and holds the Trustee, the
Depositor and the Trust Fund harmless against any and all claims, losses,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs,
judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Trustee, the
Depositor or the Trust Fund may sustain in any way related to the failure of the
Master Servicer to perform its duties and service the Mortgage Loans in
compliance with the terms of this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall
immediately notify the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor if a claim is
made that may result in such claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
legal fees or related costs, judgments, or any other costs, fees and expenses,
and the Master Servicer shall assume (with the consent of the Trustee) the
defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith,
including reasonable counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any
judgment or decree which may be entered against the Master Servicer, the
Trustee, the Depositor and/or the Trust Fund in respect of such claim. The
provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement and
the payment of the outstanding Certificates.
Section 6.04 Limitation on Resignation of Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby
imposed on it except (i) upon determination that its duties hereunder are no
longer permissible under applicable law or (ii) with the written consent of the
Trustee and the NIMS Insurer and written confirmation from each Rating Agency
(which confirmation shall be furnished to the Depositor and the Trustee) that
such resignation will not cause such Rating Agency to reduce the then current
rating of any of the Other NIM Notes, the Class A Certificates, the Class S
Certificates or the Mezzanine Certificates or the shadow rating of the Insured
NIM Notes (without giving effect to any insurance policy issued by the NIMS
Insurer). Any such determination pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding
sentence permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by
an Opinion of Counsel to such effect obtained at the expense of the Master
Servicer and delivered to the Trustee. No resignation of the Master Servicer
shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor servicer reasonably
acceptable to the NIMS Insurer shall have assumed the Master Servicer's
responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other than those liabilities arising
prior to the appointment of such successor) and obligations under this
Agreement.
153
Except as expressly provided herein, the Master Servicer shall not assign or
transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to any other
Person, nor delegate to or subcontract with, nor authorize or appoint any other
Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by
the Master Servicer hereunder. The foregoing prohibition on assignment shall not
prohibit the Master Servicer from designating a Sub-Servicer as payee of any
indemnification amount payable to the Master Servicer hereunder; provided,
however, that as provided in Section 3.06 hereof, no Sub-Servicer shall be a
third-party beneficiary hereunder and the parties hereto shall not be required
to recognize any Sub-Servicer as an indemnitee under this Agreement. If,
pursuant to any provision hereof, the duties of the Master Servicer are
transferred to a successor master servicer, the entire amount of the Servicing
Fee and other compensation payable to the Master Servicer pursuant hereto shall
thereafter be payable to such successor master servicer.
Section 6.05 Rights of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee in
Respect of the Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall afford (and any Sub-Servicing Agreement shall provide
that each Sub-Servicer shall afford) the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the
Trustee, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours, access to all
records maintained by the Master Servicer (and any such Sub-Servicer) in respect
of the Master Servicer's rights and obligations hereunder and access to officers
of the Master Servicer (and those of any such Sub-Servicer) responsible for such
obligations. Upon request, the Master Servicer shall furnish to the Depositor,
the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee its (and any such Sub-Servicer's) most recent
financial statements and such other information relating to the Master
Servicer's capacity to perform its obligations under this Agreement that it
possesses. To the extent such information is not otherwise available to the
public, the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee shall not disseminate
any information obtained pursuant to the preceding two sentences without the
Master Servicer's (or any such Sub-Servicer's) written consent, except as
required pursuant to this Agreement or to the extent that it is necessary to do
so (i) in working with legal counsel, auditors, taxing authorities or other
governmental agencies, rating agencies or reinsurers or (ii) pursuant to any
law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, writ, injunction or decree of any court
or governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Depositor, the NIMS
Insurer, the Trustee or the Trust Fund, and in either case, the Depositor or the
Trustee, as the case may be, shall use, and the NIMS Insurer shall be deemed to
have agreed with the parties hereto to use, its best efforts to assure the
confidentiality of any such disseminated non-public information. The Depositor
may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Master Servicer
under this Agreement and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a
designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement or exercise the rights of the Master Servicer under this Agreement;
provided that the Master Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its
obligations under this Agreement by virtue of such performance by the Depositor
or its designee. The Depositor shall not have any responsibility or liability
for any action or failure to act by the Master Servicer and is not obligated to
supervise the performance of the Master Servicer under this Agreement or
otherwise.

(i) any failure by the Master Servicer to remit to the Trustee for distribution
to the Certificateholders any payment (other than an Advance required to be made
from its own funds on any Master Servicer Remittance Date pursuant to Section
4.04) required to be made under the terms of the Certificates and this Agreement
which continues unremedied for a period of one Business Day after the date upon
which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall
have been given to the Master Servicer by the Depositor, the Trustee (in which
case notice shall be provided by telecopy), or to the Master Servicer, the
Depositor and the Trustee by the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates
entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights; or
(ii) any failure on the part of the Master Servicer duly to observe or perform
in any material respect any of the covenants or agreements on the part of the
Master Servicer contained in this Agreement which continues unremedied for a
period of 45 days (30 days in the case of any failure to maintain a
Sub-Servicing Agreement with an eligible Sub-Servicer to the extent required in
accordance with Section 3.02(c)) after the earlier of (i) the date on which
written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have
been given to the Master Servicer by the Depositor or the Trustee, or to the
Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee by the NIMS Insurer or the
Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights and (ii)
actual knowledge of such failure by a Servicing Representative of the Master
Servicer; or
(iii) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having
jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future
federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or the appointment of a
conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt,
marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceeding, or for the
winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the
Master Servicer and if such proceeding is being contested by the Master Servicer
in good faith, such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or
unstayed for a period of 60 days or results in the entry of an order for relief
or any such adjudication or appointment; or
(iv) the Master Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or
receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of
assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to it or of or
relating to all or substantially all of its property; or
155
(v) the Master Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts
generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any
applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the
benefit of its creditors; or
(vi) any failure by the Master Servicer of the Master Servicer Termination Test;
or
(vii) any failure of the Master Servicer to make, or cause an Advancing Person
to make, any Advance on any Master Servicer Remittance Date required to be made
from its own funds pursuant to Section 4.04 which continues unremedied until
3:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day immediately following the Master
Servicer Remittance Date; or
(viii) the Master Servicer ceases to be an approved seller or servicer of Xxxxxx
Xxx.
If a Master Servicer Event of Default described in clauses (i) through (vi) of
this Section shall occur, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such
Master Servicer Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Depositor or
the Trustee may, and at the written direction of the NIMS Insurer or the Holders
of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of Voting Rights, the Trustee shall, by
notice in writing to the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer (and to the
Depositor if given by the Trustee or to the Trustee if given by the Depositor),
terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer in its
capacity as Master Servicer under this Agreement, to the extent permitted by
law, and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. If a Master
Servicer Event of Default described in clauses (vii) or (viii) hereof shall
occur, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer (delivered
immediately by facsimile and effective on the date of acknowledgement of receipt
in the case of a Master Servicer Event of Default described in clause (vii)),
the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor, terminate all of the rights and obligations
of the Master Servicer in its capacity as Master Servicer under this Agreement
and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. On or after the
receipt by the Master Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power
of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the
Certificates (other than as a Holder of any Certificate) or the Mortgage Loans
or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under
this Section and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and
empowered, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, to execute and deliver on behalf of
and at the expense of the Master Servicer, any and all documents and other
instruments and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or
appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to
complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and
related documents, or otherwise. The Master Servicer agrees, at its sole cost
and expense, promptly (and in any event no later than ten Business Days
subsequent to such notice) to provide the Trustee with all documents and records
requested by it to enable it to assume the Master Servicer's functions under
this Agreement, and to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination
of the Master Servicer's responsibilities and rights under this Agreement,
including, without limitation, the transfer within one Business Day to the
Trustee for administration by it of all cash amounts which at the time shall be
or should have been credited by the Master Servicer to the Collection Account
held by or on behalf of the Master Servicer, or any REO Account or Servicing
Account held by or on behalf of the Master Servicer or thereafter be received
with respect to the Mortgage Loans or any REO Property (provided, however, that
the Master Servicer shall continue to be entitled to receive all amounts accrued
156
or owing to it under this Agreement on or prior to the date of such termination,
whether in respect of Advances or otherwise, and shall continue to be entitled
to the benefits of Section 6.03, notwithstanding any such termination, with
respect to events occurring prior to such termination). For purposes of this
Section 7.01, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of a Master
Servicer Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of Trustee assigned to
and working in the Trustee's Corporate Trust Office has actual knowledge thereof
or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Master Servicer
Event of Default is received by the Trustee and such notice references the
Certificates, any of the Trust REMICs or this Agreement.
The Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Master Servicer (or by the
Trust Fund if the Master Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations
hereunder) for all costs associated with the transfer of servicing from the
predecessor master servicer, including without limitation, any costs or expenses
associated with the complete transfer of all servicing data and the completion,
correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be required by the
Trustee to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or
otherwise to enable the Trustee to service the Mortgage Loans properly and
effectively.
Section 7.02 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
(a) On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of termination,
the Trustee shall be the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer in its
capacity as Master 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 and arising thereafter, which shall be assumed
by the Trustee (except for any representations or warranties of the Master
Servicer under this Agreement, the responsibilities, duties and liabilities
contained in Section 2.03(c) and its obligation to deposit amounts in respect of
losses pursuant to Section 3.12) by the terms and provisions hereof including,
without limitation, the Master Servicer's obligations to make Advances pursuant
to Section 4.04; provided, however, that if the Trustee is prohibited by law or
regulation from obligating itself to make advances regarding delinquent Mortgage
Loans, then the Trustee shall not be obligated to make Advances pursuant to
Section 4.04; and provided further, that any failure to perform such duties or
responsibilities caused by the Master Servicer's failure to provide information
required by Section 7.01 shall not be considered a default by the Trustee as
successor to the Master Servicer hereunder; provided, however, it is understood
and acknowledged by the parties that there will be a period of transition (not
to exceed 90 days) before the servicing transfer is fully effected. As
compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee and
all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans to which the Master Servicer would have
been entitled if it had continued to act hereunder (other than amounts which
were due or would become due to the Master Servicer prior to its termination or
resignation). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall
the Trustee be liable for any Servicing Fee or for any differential in the
amount of the Servicing Fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce
any successor Master Servicer to act as successor Master Servicer under this
Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein. After the
Master Servicer receives a notice of termination, notwithstanding the above and
subject to the next paragraph, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so
157
act, or shall, if it is unable to so act or if it is prohibited by law from
making advances regarding delinquent Mortgage Loans, or if the NIMS Insurer or
the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights so
request in writing to the Trustee, promptly appoint, or petition a court of
competent jurisdiction to appoint, an established mortgage loan servicing
institution acceptable to each Rating Agency, having a net worth of not less
than $15,000,000 and reasonably acceptable to the NIMS Insurer, as the successor
to the Master Servicer under this Agreement in the assumption of all or any part
of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer under this
Agreement.
No appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer under this Agreement shall
be effective until the assumption by the successor of all of the Master
Servicer's responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder. In connection
with such appointment and assumption described herein, the Trustee may make such
arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage
Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such
compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Master Servicer as such
hereunder. The Depositor, the Trustee and such successor shall take such action,
consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such
succession. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer under this
Agreement, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided.
Upon removal or resignation of the Master Servicer, the Trustee, with the
cooperation of the Depositor, (x) shall solicit bids for a successor Master
Servicer as described below and (y) pending the appointment of a successor
Master Servicer as a result of soliciting such bids, shall serve as Master
Servicer of the Mortgage Loans serviced by such predecessor Master Servicer. The
Trustee shall solicit, by public announcement, bids from housing and home
finance institutions, banks and mortgage servicing institutions meeting the
qualifications set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 7.02 (including
the Trustee or any affiliate thereof). Such public announcement shall specify
that the successor Master Servicer shall be entitled to the servicing
compensation agreed upon between the Trustee, the successor Master Servicer and
the Depositor; provided, however, that no such fee shall exceed the Servicing
Fee. Within thirty days after any such public announcement, the Trustee with the
cooperation of the Depositor, shall negotiate in good faith and effect the sale,
transfer and assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities hereunder
to the qualified party submitting the highest satisfactory bid as to the price
they will pay to obtain such servicing. The Trustee, upon receipt of the
purchase price shall pay such purchase price to the Master Servicer being so
removed, after deducting from any sum received by the Trustee from the successor
to the Master Servicer in respect of such sale, transfer and assignment all
costs and expenses of any public announcement and of any sale, transfer and
assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities reasonably incurred
hereunder. After such deductions, the remainder of such sum shall be paid by the
Trustee to the Master Servicer at the time of such sale.
(b) If the Master Servicer fails to remit to the Trustee for distribution to the
Certificateholders any payment required to be made under the terms of this
Agreement (for purposes of this Section 7.02(b), a "Remittance") because the
Master Servicer is the subject of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code and the
making of such Remittance is prohibited by Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code,
the Trustee shall upon written notice of such prohibition, regardless of whether
it has received a notice of termination under Section 7.01, shall be treated as
though it had succeeded to the Master Servicer and shall advance the amount of
such Remittance by depositing such amount in the Distribution Account on the
related Distribution Date. The Trustee shall be obligated to make such advance
only if (i) such advance, in the good faith judgment of the Trustee can
158
reasonably be expected to be ultimately recoverable from Stayed Funds and (ii)
the Trustee is not prohibited by law from making such advance or obligating
itself to do so. Upon remittance of the Stayed Funds to the Trustee or the
deposit thereof in the Distribution Account by the Master Servicer, a trustee in
bankruptcy or a federal bankruptcy court, the Trustee may recover the amount so
advanced, without interest, by withdrawing such amount from the Distribution
Account; however, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to affect the
Trustee's rights to recover from the Master Servicer's own funds interest on the
amount of any such advance. If the Trustee at any time makes an advance under
this subsection which it later determines in its good faith judgment will not be
ultimately recoverable from the Stayed Funds with respect to which such advance
was made, the Trustee shall be entitled to reimburse itself for such advance,
without interest, by withdrawing from the Distribution Account, out of amounts
on deposit therein, an amount equal to the portion of such advance attributable
to the Stayed Funds.
Section 7.03 Notification to Certificateholders.
(a) Upon any termination of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 7.01 above
or any appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer pursuant to Section
7.02 above, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to
Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate
Register and to the NIMS Insurer.
(b) Not later than the later of 60 days after the occurrence of any event, which
constitutes or which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a
Master Servicer Event of Default or five days after a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee becomes aware of the occurrence of such an event, the Trustee shall
transmit by mail to all Holders of Certificates and to the NIMS Insurer notice
of each such occurrence, unless such default or Master Servicer Event of Default
shall have been cured or waived.
Section 7.04 Waiver of Master Servicer Events of Default.
The Holders representing at least 66% of the Voting Rights evidenced by all
Classes of Certificates affected by any default or Master Servicer Event of
Default hereunder may, with the consent of the NIMS Insurer, waive such default
or Master Servicer Event of Default; provided, however, that a default or Master
Servicer Event of Default under clause (i) or (vii) of Section 7.01 may be
waived only by all of the Holders of the Regular Certificates and the NIMS
Insurer (as evidenced by the written consent of the NIMS Insurer). Upon any such
waiver of a default or Master Servicer Event of Default, such default or Master
Servicer Event of Default shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been
remedied for every purpose hereunder. No such waiver shall extend to any
subsequent or other default or Master Servicer Event of Default or impair any
right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

ARTICLE VIII
THE TRUSTEE
Section 8.01 Duties of Trustee.
The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default and
after the curing of all Master Servicer Events of Default which may have
occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are
specifically set forth in this Agreement. During a Master Servicer Event of
Default, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it
by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise
as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct
of such person's own affairs. Any permissive right of the Trustee enumerated in
this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty.
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. If any such instrument is found
not to conform to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner, the
Trustee shall take such action as it deems appropriate to have the instrument
corrected, and if the instrument is not corrected to the Trustee's satisfaction,
the Trustee will provide notice thereof to the Certificateholders.
No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from
liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its
own misconduct; provided, however, that:
(i) Prior to the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default, and after the
curing of all such Master Servicer Events of Default which may have occurred,
the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the
express provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be liable except for
the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in
this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
Agreement against the Trustee and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of
the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the
statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any
certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee that conform to the
requirements of this Agreement;
(ii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for an error of judgment made in
good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee
unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the
pertinent facts; and
(iii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any action
taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with
the direction of the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates entitled to at
160
least 25% of the Voting Rights relating to the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising
any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Agreement.
Section 8.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
(i) The Trustee may request and rely conclusively upon and shall be fully
protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officers'
Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or
other paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been
signed or presented by the proper party or parties and the manner of obtaining
consents and evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof shall be
subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe;
(ii) The Trustee may consult with counsel and any Opinion of Counsel shall be
full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or
suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such
Opinion of Counsel;
(iii) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the trusts or
powers vested in it by this Agreement or to institute, conduct or defend any
litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of
any of the NIMS Insurer or the Certificateholders, pursuant to the provisions of
this Agreement, unless the NIMS Insurer or such Certificateholders shall have
offered to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the
costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby;
nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligation,
upon the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default (which has not been
cured or waived), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this
Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a
prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
such person's own affairs;
(iv) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered
or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the
discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;
(v) Prior to the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default hereunder and
after the curing of all Master Servicer Events of Default which may have
occurred, the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the
facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper
or document, unless requested in writing to do so by the NIMS Insurer or the
Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights; provided,
however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the
161
costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such
investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee not reasonably assured to the
Trustee by the NIMS Insurer or such Certificateholders, the Trustee may require
reasonable indemnity against such expense, or liability from the NIMS Insurer or
such Certificateholders as a condition to taking any such action;
(vi) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform
any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents custodians,
nominees or attorneys and shall not be responsible for any willful misconduct or
negligence of such agents, custodians, nominees or attorneys (as long as such
agents, custodians, nominees or attorneys are appointed with due and proper
care);
(vii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any loss resulting from the
investment of funds held in the Collection Account at the direction of the
Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12; and
(viii) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, none of the provisions of
this Agreement shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise to incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of
any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers
(not including expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the
Trustee including the compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its
agents and counsel, in the ordinary course of the Trustee's performance in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement) if it shall have reasonable
grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to
it against such risk or liability is not assured to it.
(b) All rights of action under this Agreement or under any of the Certificates,
enforceable by the Trustee may be enforced by it without the possession of any
of the Certificates, or the production thereof at the trial or other proceeding
relating thereto, and any such suit, action or proceeding instituted by the
Trustee shall be brought in its name for the benefit of all the Holders of such
Certificates, subject to the provisions of this Agreement.
Section 8.03 Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the signature
of the Trustee, the execution and authentication of the Trustee on the
Certificates, the acknowledgments of the Trustee contained in Article II and the
representations and warranties of the Trustee in Section 8.13) shall be taken as
the statements of the Depositor, and the Trustee shall not assume any
responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations or
warranties as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement (other than as
specifically set forth in Section 8.13) or of the Certificates (other than
execution and authentication of the Trustee on the Certificates) or of any
Mortgage Loan or related document. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the
use or application by the Depositor of any of the Certificates or of the
proceeds of the Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid to
the Depositor or the Master Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or
deposited in or withdrawn from the Collection Account by the Master Servicer,
other than any funds held by or on behalf of the Trustee in accordance with
Section 3.10.
162
Section 8.04 Trustee May Own Certificates.
The Trustee in its individual capacity or any other capacity may become the
owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights it would have if it were
not Trustee and may transact banking and/or trust business with the Seller, the
Depositor, the Master Servicer or their Affiliates.
Section 8.05 Trustee's Fees and Expenses.
(a) On the Closing Date, the Depositor shall pay to the Trustee as specified in
a separate agreement between the Depositor and the Trustee. The Trustee shall
withdraw from the Distribution Account on each Distribution Date and pay to
itself the Trustee Fee for such Distribution Date and one day's interest
earnings (net of losses) on amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account. The
right to receive the Trustee Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part
except in connection with the transfer of all of the Trustee's responsibilities
and obligations under this Agreement.
The Trustee, and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee shall
be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless against any loss, liability
or expense (not including expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made
by the Trustee, including the compensation and the expenses and disbursements of
its agents and counsel, in the ordinary course of the Trustee's performance in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement) incurred by the Trustee
arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its
obligations (including, without limitation, its obligation to enter into the Cap
Assignment) and duties under this Agreement, other than any loss, liability or
expense (i) in any way relating to the failure of the Master Servicer to perform
its duties and service the Mortgage Loans in compliance with the terms of this
Agreement, (ii) that constitutes a specific liability of the Trustee pursuant to
Section 10.01(c) or (iii) any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of
willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties
hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties
hereunder, including as a result of a breach of the Trustee's obligations under
Article X hereof. Any amounts payable to the Trustee or any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Trustee in respect of the indemnification provided by
this paragraph (a), or pursuant to any other right of reimbursement from the
Trust Fund that the Trustee or any director, officer, employee or agent of the
Trustee may have hereunder in its capacity as such, may be withdrawn by the
Trustee from the Distribution Account at any time. Such indemnity shall survive
the termination of this Agreement and the resignation of the Trustee.
As a limitation on the foregoing with respect to certain expenses of the
Trustee, the Trustee shall receive from the Trust Fund amounts with respect to
indemnification for counsel fees and expenses (collectively, "Legal Fees") in
connection with any third-party litigation or other claims alleging violations
of laws or regulations relating to consumer lending and/or servicing of the
Trust Fund (collectively, "Third Party Claims") in an amount not greater than
$25,000 per month, and $600,000 in the aggregate (with amounts in excess of
$25,000 for any month carried-forward to subsequent months, until the $600,000
aggregate maximum is reached). The Trustee shall have no obligation to incur
additional expenses for which reimbursement is limited pursuant to this
paragraph in excess of the aggregate limit set forth above unless it has
163
received reasonable security or indemnity for such additional expenses. The
Certificateholders shall hold the Trustee harmless for any consequences to such
Certificateholders resulting from any failure of the Trustee to incur any such
additional expenses in excess of the aforementioned aggregate limit.
(b) Without limiting the Master Servicer's indemnification obligations under
Section 6.03, the Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trustee from, and hold
it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense resulting from a breach of
the Master Servicer's obligations and duties under this Agreement. Such
indemnity shall survive the termination or discharge of this Agreement and the
resignation or removal of the Trustee. Any payment under this Section 8.05(b)
made by the Master Servicer to the Trustee shall be from the Master Servicer's
own funds, without reimbursement from the Trust Fund therefor.
Section 8.06 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.
The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation or an association
(other than the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer or any Affiliate of
the foregoing) organized and doing business under the laws of any state or the
United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust
powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and
subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such
corporation or association publishes reports of conditions at least annually,
pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining
authority, then for the purposes of this Section the combined capital and
surplus of such corporation or association shall be deemed to be its combined
capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of conditions so
published. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall resign
immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.07.
Section 8.07 Resignation or Removal of Trustee.
The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trust hereby
created by giving written notice thereof to the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and the Certificateholders. Upon receiving such notice of
resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee by written
instrument, in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning
Trustee and to the successor Trustee acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and to the
Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights. A copy of
such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders and the Master
Servicer by the Depositor. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed
and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of
resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.
If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after written request
therefor by the Depositor or the NIMS Insurer, or if at any time the Trustee
shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or
a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public
officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or
affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the
Depositor or the NIMS Insurer, may remove the Trustee and the Depositor may
appoint a successor Trustee, acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and to the Holders
164
of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights, by written
instrument, in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so
removed and to the successor Trustee. A copy of such instrument shall be
delivered to the Certificateholders and the Master Servicer by the Depositor.
The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights, with
the consent of the NIMS Insurer, may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint
a successor Trustee by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed
by the NIMS Insurer or such Holders, as applicable, or their attorneys-in-fact
duly authorized, one complete set of which instruments shall be delivered to the
Depositor, one complete set to the Trustee so removed and one complete set to
the successor so appointed. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the
NIMS Insurer, the Certificateholders and the Master Servicer by the Depositor.
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee
pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall not become effective
until acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee as provided in Section
8.08.
Section 8.08 Successor Trustee.
Any successor Trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, and to its predecessor Trustee an
instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation
or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become effective and such successor
Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested
with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor
hereunder, with the like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein. The
predecessor Trustee shall deliver to the successor Trustee all Mortgage Files
and related documents and statements, as well as all moneys, held by it
hereunder (other than any Mortgage Files at the time held by a Custodian, which
Custodian shall become the agent of any successor Trustee hereunder), and the
Depositor and the predecessor Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments
and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and
certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Trustee all such rights,
powers, duties and obligations.
No successor Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless
at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be eligible under
the provisions of Section 8.06 and the appointment of such successor Trustee
shall not result in a downgrading of the ratings of any of the Other NIM Notes
or of any Class of Certificates or of the shadow ratings of the Insured NIM
Notes (without giving effect to any insurance policy issued by the NIMS Insurer)
by any Rating Agency, as evidenced by a letter from each Rating Agency.
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as provided in this
Section, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of such Trustee
hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as shown in the
Certificate Register. If the Depositor fails to mail such notice within 10 days
after acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee, the successor Trustee
shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Depositor.
Section 8.09 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.
Any corporation or association into which the Trustee may be merged or converted
or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation or association resulting
165
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a
party, or any corporation or association succeeding to the business of the
Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such
corporation or association shall be eligible under the provisions of Section
8.06, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the
part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.
Section 8.10 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for the purpose of
meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of REMIC 1,
or property securing the same may at the time be located, the Master Servicer
and the Trustee, acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and
deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee
and the NIMS Insurer, to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the
Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of REMIC
1, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to REMIC
1, or any part thereof and, subject to the other provisions of this Section
8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Master Servicer
and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Master Servicer
shall not have joined in such appointment or the NIMS Insurer shall not have
approved such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so
to do, or in case a Master Servicer Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No
co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of
eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.06 hereunder and no notice to
Holders of Certificates of the appointment of co-trustee(s) or separate
trustee(s) shall be required under Section 8.08 hereof. If such appointment is
at the request of the Master Servicer then any expense of the Trustee shall be
deemed a Servicing Advance for all purpose of this Agreement, otherwise it will
be an expense of the Trustee and will be payable out of the Trustee's funds.
In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee pursuant to
this Section 8.10 all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or
imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or
performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly, except
to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act
or acts are to be performed by the Trustee (whether as Trustee hereunder or as
successor to the Master Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or
unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers,
duties and obligations (including the holding of title to REMIC 1, or any
portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by
such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the Trustee.
Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to
have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as
effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any
separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions
of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance
of the trust conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified
in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately,
as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement,
specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct
of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every
such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee.
166
Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute the Trustee, its
agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to the extent not
prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on
its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die,
become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates,
properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the
Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or
successor trustee.
Section 8.11 Appointment of Custodians.
The Trustee may, with the consent of the Depositor and the Master Servicer,
appoint one or more Custodians to hold all or a portion of the Mortgage Files as
agent for the Trustee, by entering into a Custodial Agreement. The Trustee shall
initially serve as the Custodian and this Agreement shall serve as the Custodial
Agreement. The appointment of any Custodian may at any time be terminated and a
substitute Custodian appointed therefor upon the reasonable request of the
Master Servicer to the Trustee and the consent of the NIMS Insurer, the consent
to which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Trustee shall pay any and all
fees and expenses of any Custodian (other than the Washington Mutual Custodian)
in accordance with each Custodial Agreement. Subject to Article VIII hereof, the
Trustee agrees to comply with the terms of each Custodial Agreement and to
enforce the terms and provisions thereof against the Custodian for the benefit
of the Certificateholders having an interest in any Mortgage File held by such
Custodian. Each Custodian shall be a depository institution or trust company
subject to supervision by federal or state authority, shall have combined
capital and surplus of at least $10,000,000 and shall be qualified to do
business in the jurisdiction in which it holds any Mortgage File. Each Custodial
Agreement may be amended only as provided in Section 11.01. In no event shall
the appointment of any Custodian pursuant to a Custodial Agreement diminish the
obligations of the Trustee hereunder. The Trustee shall at all times remain
responsible under the terms of this Agreement notwithstanding the fact that
certain duties have been assigned to the Custodian (other than the Washington
Mutual Custodian), but only to the extent the Trustee is responsible for its own
acts hereunder. Any documents delivered by the Depositor or the Master Servicer
to a Custodian other than the Trustee, if any, shall be deemed to have been
delivered to the Trustee for all purposes hereunder; and any documents held by
such a Custodian, if any, shall be deemed to be held by the Trustee for all
purposes hereunder. In order to comply with its duties under the U.S. Patriot
Act, the Custodian shall obtain and verify certain information and documentation
from the other parties to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, such
parties' name, address, and other identifying information.
Section 8.12 Appointment of Office or Agency.
The Trustee will appoint an office or agency in the City of New York where the
Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and
presented for final distribution, and where notices and demands to or upon the
Trustee in respect of the Certificates and this Agreement may be served. As of
the Closing Date, the Trustee designates its offices located at the office of
Trustee's agent, located at DTC Transfer Agent Services, 00 Xxxxx Xxxxxx,
Xxxxxxxx Xxxx Entrance, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000 for such purpose.
167
Section 8.13 Representations and Warranties of the Trustee.
The Trustee hereby represents and warrants to the Master Servicer and the
Depositor, as of the Closing Date, that:
(i) it is a national banking association duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the United States.
(ii) the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and the performance and
compliance with the terms of this Agreement, will not violate its charter or
bylaws or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time,
or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the breach of, any
material agreement or other instrument to which it is a party or which is
applicable to it or any of its assets.
(iii) it has the full power and authority to enter into and consummate all
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, has duly authorized the execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement, and has duly executed and delivered
this Agreement.
(iv) this Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the
Master Servicer and the Depositor, constitutes its valid, legal and binding
obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms hereof, subject
to (A) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization,
moratorium and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights
generally, and (B) general principles of equity, regardless of whether such
enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

and the Classes of Certificates as hereinafter set forth) shall terminate upon
the payment to the Certificateholders and the deposit of all amounts held by or
on behalf of the Trustee and required hereunder to be so paid or deposited on

REO Property remaining in REMIC 1; provided, however, that in no event shall the
168
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 purchase by the Terminator of all Mortgage Loans and each REO
Property remaining in REMIC 1 shall be at a price (the "Termination Price")
equal to (a) if the Terminator is the Master Servicer, 100% of the aggregate
Stated Principal Balance of all the Mortgage Loans included in REMIC 1 and
accrued interest on the Stated Principal Balance of each such Mortgage Loan at
the applicable Net Mortgage Rate in effect from time to time from the Due Date
as to which interest was last paid by the related Mortgagor or by an advance by
the Master Servicer to but not including the first day of the month in which
such purchase is to be effected, plus the appraised value of each REO Property,
if any, included in REMIC 1, such appraisal to be conducted by an appraiser
selected by the Terminator in its reasonable discretion and (b) if the
Terminator is the NIMS Insurer, the greater of (A) the aggregate Purchase Price
of all the Mortgage Loans included in REMIC 1, plus the appraised value of each
REO Property, if any, included in REMIC 1, such appraisal to be conducted by an

Certificateholders pursuant to the third paragraph of this Section 9.01), and
any additional amounts necessary to pay all interest accrued on, as well as
amounts necessary to pay in full the principal balance of, the NIM Notes and any
amounts necessary to reimburse the NIMS Insurer for all amounts paid under the
NIMs insurance policy and any other amounts reimbursable or otherwise payable to
the NIMS Insurer, in each case, with interest thereon at the applicable rate set
forth in the Indenture and to the extent not previously reimbursed or paid.
(b) The Master Servicer shall have the right and, if the Master Servicer does
not exercise such right, the NIMS Insurer, shall have the right (the party
exercising such right, the "Terminator") to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans
and each REO Property remaining in REMIC 1 pursuant to clause (i) of the
preceding paragraph no later than the Determination Date in the month
immediately preceding the Distribution Date on which the Certificates will be
retired; provided, however, that the Terminator may elect to purchase all of the

Balance of the Closing Date Mortgage Loans. Additionally, if the Terminator is
the Master Servicer, the Terminator may elect to purchase all of the Mortgage
Loans and each REO Property in REMIC 1 pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding
paragraph only if the Termination Price (A) is equal to or less than the
aggregate fair market value of all of the assets of REMIC 1 (as determined by
the Terminator, 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 Section 9.01(c)) and (B) will result in
distributions on the Certificates sufficient (together with all amounts received
under the Indenture other than on account of the Certificates) to pay all
interest accrued on, as well as amounts necessary to pay in full the principal
balance of, the NIM Notes and any amounts necessary to reimburse the NIMS
Insurer for all amounts paid under the NIMs insurance policy and any other
amounts reimbursable or otherwise payable to the NIMS Insurer, in each case,
with interest thereon at the applicable rate set forth in the Indenture and to
the extent not previously reimbursed or paid (unless the NIMS Insurer consents
to a lesser Termination Price). By acceptance of the Residual Certificates, the
Holders of the Residual Certificates agree for so long as any NIM Notes are
169
outstanding, in connection with any termination hereunder, to assign and
transfer any amounts in excess of par, and to the extent received in respect of
such termination, to pay any such amounts to the Holders of the Class C
Certificates.
(c) Notice of the liquidation of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests shall be given
promptly by the Trustee by letter to Certificateholders mailed (a) in the event
such notice is given in connection with the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and
each REO Property by the Terminator, not earlier than the 15th day and not later
than the 25th day of the month next preceding the month of the final
distribution on the Certificates or (b) otherwise during the month of such final
distribution on or before the Determination Date in such month, in each case
specifying (i) the Distribution Date upon which the Trust Fund will terminate
and final payment in respect of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests and the related
Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of the related
Certificates at the office of the Trustee therein designated, (ii) the amount of
any such final payment, (iii) that no interest shall accrue in respect of the
REMIC 1 Regular Interests or the related Certificates from and after the Accrual
Period relating to the final Distribution Date therefor and (iv) that the Record
Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments
being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the
office of the Trustee designated in such notice for purposes of such surrender.
The Trustee shall remit to the Master Servicer from such funds deposited in the
Distribution Account (i) any amounts which the Master Servicer would be
permitted to withdraw and retain from the Collection Account pursuant to Section
3.11 and (ii) any other amounts otherwise payable by the Trustee to the Master
Servicer from amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement, in each case prior to making any final distributions
pursuant to Section 9.01(d) below. Upon certification to the Trustee by a
Servicing Representative of the making of such final deposit, the Trustee shall
promptly release or cause to be released to the Terminator the Mortgage Files
for the remaining Mortgage Loans, and the Trustee shall execute all assignments,
endorsements and other instruments necessary to effectuate such transfer.
(d) Upon presentation of the Certificates by the Certificateholders on the final
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute to each Certificateholder so
presenting and surrendering its Certificates the amount otherwise distributable
on such Distribution Date in accordance with Section 4.01 in respect of the
Certificates so presented and surrendered. Any funds not distributed to any
Holder or Holders of Certificates being retired on such Distribution Date
because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates
shall, on such date, be set aside and held in trust by the Trustee and credited
to the account of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any
Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 9.01
shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the
time specified in such notice, the Trustee shall mail a second notice to the
remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for
cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If
within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have
been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall, directly or through an
agent, mail a final notice to remaining related non-tendering Certificateholders
concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of
maintaining the funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders shall
be paid out of the assets remaining in the trust funds. If within one year after
the final notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for
170
cancellation, the Trustee shall pay to Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc. and WaMu
Capital Corp., equally, all such amounts, and all rights of non-tendering
Certificateholders in or to such amounts shall thereupon cease. No interest
shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust
by the Trustee as a result of such Certificateholder's failure to surrender its
Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 9.01.
Immediately following the deposit of funds in trust hereunder in respect of the
Certificates, the Trust Fund shall terminate.

status thereof as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions (and the Master Servicer
shall assist the Trustee, to the extent reasonably requested by the Trustee to
do specific actions in order to assist in the maintenance of such status). The
Trustee shall not take any action, cause the Trust Fund to take any action or
fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action that, under the REMIC
Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger the

upon the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited
transactions set forth in Section 860F(a) of the Code and the tax on
contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such
event, an "Adverse REMIC Event") unless the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer have

(at the expense of the party seeking to take such action but in no event at the
expense of the Trustee) to the effect that the contemplated action will not,
with respect to any Trust REMIC, endanger such status or result in the
imposition of such a tax, nor shall the Master Servicer take or fail to take any
action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the Trustee has advised
it in writing that it has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an
Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such action; provided that the
Master Servicer may conclusively rely on such Opinion of Counsel and shall incur
no liability for its action or failure to act in accordance with such Opinion of
Counsel. The Trustee shall deliver to the NIMS Insurer a copy of any such advice
or opinion. In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to any Trust
REMIC or the assets thereof, or causing any Trust REMIC to take any action,
which is not contemplated under the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer
173
will consult with the Trustee or its designee, in writing, with respect to
whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to
a Trust REMIC, and the Master Servicer shall not take any such action or cause
any Trust REMIC to take any such action as to which the Trustee has advised it
in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur; provided that the Master
Servicer may conclusively rely on such writing and shall incur no liability for
its action or failure to act in accordance with such writing. The Trustee may
consult with counsel to make such written advice, and the cost of same shall be
borne by the party seeking to take the action not permitted by this Agreement,
but in no event shall such cost be an expense of the Trustee. At all times as
may be required by the Code, the Trustee will ensure that substantially all of
the assets of REMIC 1 will consist of "qualified mortgages" as defined in
Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and "permitted investments" as defined in Section
860G(a)(5) of the Code.

foreclosure property of any such REMIC pursuant to Section 860G(c) of the Code,
or on any contributions to any such REMIC after the Startup Day therefor
pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or if any other tax is imposed by the
Code or any applicable provisions of state or local tax laws, such tax shall be
charged (i) to the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises
out of or results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its obligations under
this Article X, (ii) to the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if
such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Master Servicer of any of
its obligations under Article III or this Article X, or (iii) otherwise against
amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account and shall be paid by withdrawal
therefrom.
(h) On or before April 15 of each calendar year commencing after the date of
this Agreement, the Trustee shall deliver to the Master Servicer, the NIMS
Insurer and each Rating Agency a Certificate from a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee stating the Trustee's compliance with this Article X.
(i) The Trustee shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and
records with respect to each Trust REMIC on a calendar year and on an accrual
basis.
(j) Following the Startup Day, the Trustee shall not accept any contributions of
assets to any Trust REMIC other than in connection with any Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan delivered in accordance with Section 2.03 unless it shall have
received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the inclusion of such assets
in the Trust Fund will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC
at any time that any Certificates are outstanding or subject any Trust REMIC to
any tax under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal,
state and local law or ordinances.
(k) Neither the Trustee nor the Master Servicer shall enter into any arrangement
by which any Trust REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services
or permit any Trust REMIC to receive any income from assets other than
"qualified mortgages" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or "permitted
investments" as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer (at the expense of the party seeking to cause
such sale, disposition, substitution, acquisition or contribution but in no
event at the expense of the Trustee) that such sale, disposition, substitution,
acquisition or contribution will not (a) affect adversely the status of any
Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (b) cause any Trust REMIC to be subject to a tax on
"prohibited transactions" or "contributions" pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.

execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable
regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.

that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Mortgage Loans and all other
property conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 by the Depositor to
the Trustee to secure a debt or other obligation of the Depositor and (b)(1)
this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement within the
meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from
time to time in the State of New York; (2) the conveyance provided for in
Section 2.01 hereof shall be deemed to be a grant by the Depositor to the

the Mortgage Loans and all other property conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to
Section 2.01 in accordance with the terms thereof and all proceeds of the
conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments,
securities or other property, including without limitation all amounts, other
than investment earnings, from time to time held or invested in the Collection
Account and the Distribution Account, whether in the form of cash, instruments,
securities or other property; (3) the obligations secured by such security

agreement shall be deemed to be all of the Depositor's obligations under this
Agreement, including the obligation to provide to the Certificateholders the
benefits of this Agreement relating to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Fund;
and (4) notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments,
receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed
notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, financial
intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Trustee for the purpose
of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. Accordingly, the
Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee a security interest in the Mortgage Loans
and all other property described in clause (2) of the preceding sentence, for
the purpose of securing to the Trustee the performance by the Depositor of the
obligations described in clause (3) of the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the parties hereto intend the conveyance pursuant to Section 2.01
to be a true, absolute and unconditional sale of the Mortgage Loans and assets
constituting the Trust Fund by the Depositor to the Trustee.

The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer, if any, may

bound by the restrictions of the Agreement, including but not limited to the
restrictions that (i) each person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in
this Certificate must be a Permitted Transferee, (ii) no Ownership Interest in
this Certificate may be transferred without delivery to the Trustee of (a) a

such Swap Rating Agency has reconfirmed the rating of the Certificates that were
rated when issued and/or the NIMS, if any, without regard to the Insurance
Policies, if any, issued by the Note Insurer and/or the Backup Note Insurer

Insurance Policies, if any, issued by the Note Insurer and/or the Backup Note
Insurer, if any.
