Principal Balance if such Distribution Date occurs between and including July
2006 and June 2007, and (5) 50% of the Original Class B Principal Balance if

ARTICLE II
CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS;
ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF THE CERTIFICATES
Section 2.01. Conveyance of Mortgage Loans.
The Seller, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does
hereby assign to the Trustee, without recourse all the right, title and interest
of the Seller in and to (a) the Trust Estate, including all interest (other than
the portion, if any, representing the Fixed Retained Yield) and principal
received by the Seller on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans after the
Cut-Off Date (and including scheduled payments of principal and interest due
after the Cut-Off Date but received by the Seller on or before the Cut-Off Date
and Unscheduled Principal Receipts received or applied on the Cut-Off Date, but
not including payments of principal and interest due on the Mortgage Loans on or
before the Cut-Off Date), (b) the Insurance Policies, (c) the obligations of the
Servicers under the Servicing Agreements with respect to the Mortgage Loans and
(d) proceeds of all the foregoing.
In connection with such assignment, the Seller shall, with respect to each
Mortgage Loan, deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee, as initial
Custodian, on or before the Closing Date, an Owner Mortgage Loan File. If any
Mortgage or an assignment of a Mortgage to the Trustee or any prior assignment
is in the process of being recorded on the Closing Date, the Seller shall
deliver a copy thereof, certified by Norwest Mortgage or the applicable Norwest
Mortgage Correspondent to be a true and complete copy of the document sent for
recording, and the Seller shall use its best efforts to cause each such original
recorded document or certified copy thereof to be delivered to the Trustee
promptly following its recordation, but in no event later than one (1) year
following the Closing Date. The Seller shall also cause to be delivered to the
Trustee any other original mortgage loan document to be included in the Owner
Mortgage Loan File if a copy thereof has been delivered. The Seller shall pay
from its own funds, without any right of reimbursement therefor, the amount of
any costs, liabilities and expenses incurred by the Trust Estate by reason of
the failure of the Seller to cause to be delivered to the Trustee within one (1)
year following the Closing Date any original Mortgage or assignment of a
Mortgage not delivered to the Trustee on the Closing Date.
In lieu of recording an assignment of any Mortgage the Seller may, to the
extent set forth in the applicable Servicing Agreement, deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Trustee the assignment of the Mortgage Loan from the Seller to
the Trustee in a form suitable for recordation, together with an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that recording is not required to protect the Trustee's
right, title and interest in and to the related Mortgage Loan or, in case a
court should recharacterize the sale of the Mortgage Loans as a financing, to
perfect a first priority security interest in favor of the Trustee in the
related Mortgage Loan. In the event that the Master Servicer receives notice
that recording is required to protect the right, title and interest of the
Trustee in and to any such Mortgage Loan for which recordation of an assignment
has not previously been required, the Master Servicer shall promptly notify the
Trustee and the Trustee shall within five Business Days (or such other
reasonable period of time mutually agreed upon by the Master Servicer and the
Trustee) of its receipt of such notice deliver each previously unrecorded
assignment to the related Servicer for recordation.
Section 2.02. Acceptance by Trustee.
The Trustee acknowledges receipt of the Mortgage Notes, the Mortgages, the
assignments and other documents required to be delivered on the Closing Date
pursuant to Section 2.01 above and declares that it holds and will hold such
documents and the other documents constituting a part of the Owner Mortgage Loan
Files delivered to it in trust, upon the trusts herein set forth, for the use
and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Trustee agrees,
for the benefit of Certificateholders, to review each Owner Mortgage Loan File
within 45 days after execution of this Agreement in order to ascertain that all
required documents set forth in Section 2.01 have been executed and received and
appear regular on their face, and that such documents relate to the Mortgage
Loans identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, and in so doing the Trustee may
rely on the purported due execution and genuineness of any such document and on
the purported genuineness of any signature thereon. If within such 45 day period
the Trustee finds any document constituting a part of an Owner Mortgage Loan
File not to have been executed or received or to be unrelated to the Mortgage
Loans identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule or not to appear regular on its
face, the Trustee shall promptly (and in no event more than 30 days after the
discovery of such defect) notify the Seller, which shall have a period of 60
days after the date of such notice within which to correct or cure any such
defect. The Seller hereby covenants and agrees that, if any material defect is
not so corrected or cured, the Seller will, not later than 60 days after the
Trustee's notice to it referred to above respecting such defect, either (i)
repurchase the related Mortgage Loan or any property acquired in respect thereof
from the Trust Estate at a price equal to (a) 100% of the unpaid principal
balance of such Mortgage Loan plus (b) accrued interest at the Mortgage Interest
Rate, less any Fixed Retained Yield, through the last day of the month in which
such repurchase takes place or (ii) if within two years of the Startup Day, or
such other period permitted by the REMIC Provisions, substitute for any Mortgage
Loan to which such material defect relates, a new mortgage loan (a "Substitute
Mortgage Loan") having such characteristics so that the representations and
warranties of the Seller set forth in Section 2.03(b) hereof (other than Section
2.03(b)(i)) would not have been incorrect had such Substitute Mortgage Loan
originally been a Mortgage Loan. In no event shall any Substitute Mortgage Loan
have an unpaid principal balance, as of the date of substitution, greater than
the Scheduled Principal Balance (reduced by the scheduled payment of principal
due on the Due Date in the month of substitution) of the Mortgage Loan for which
it is substituted. In addition, such Substitute Mortgage Loan shall have a
Loan-to-Value Ratio less than or equal to and a Mortgage Interest Rate equal to
that of the Mortgage Loan for which it is substituted.
In the case of a repurchased Mortgage Loan or property, the purchase price
shall be deposited by the Seller in the Certificate Account maintained by the
Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.01. In the case of a Substitute Mortgage
Loan, the Owner Mortgage Loan File relating thereto shall be delivered to the
Trustee and the Substitution Principal Amount, together with (i) interest on
such Substitution Principal Amount at the applicable Net Mortgage Interest Rate
to the following Due Date of such Mortgage Loan which is being substituted for
and (ii) an amount equal to the aggregate amount of unreimbursed Periodic
Advances in respect of interest previously made by the Servicer, the Master
Servicer or the Trustee with respect to such Mortgage Loan, shall be deposited
in the Certificate Account. The Monthly Payment on the Substitute Mortgage Loan
for the Due Date in the month of substitution shall not be part of the Trust
Estate. Upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification of any such deposit
signed by an officer of the Seller, or the new Owner Mortgage Loan File, as the
case may be, the Trustee shall release to the Seller the related Owner Mortgage
Loan File and shall execute and deliver such instrument of transfer or
assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the
Seller legal and beneficial ownership of such substituted or repurchased
Mortgage Loan or property. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of
the Seller to substitute a new Mortgage Loan for or repurchase any Mortgage Loan
or property as to which such a material defect in a constituent document exists
shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such defect available to the
Certificateholders or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders. The
failure of the Trustee to give any notice contemplated herein within forty-five
(45) days after the execution of this Agreement shall not affect or relieve the
Seller's obligation to repurchase any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section
2.02.
The Trustee may, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof or at
any time thereafter, enter into a Custodial Agreement substantially in the form
of Exhibit E hereto pursuant to which the Trustee appoints a Custodian to hold
the Mortgage Notes, the Mortgages, the assignments and other documents related
to the Mortgage Loans received by the Trustee in trust for the benefit of all
present and future Certificateholders, which may provide, among other things,
that the Custodian shall conduct the review of such documents required under the
first paragraph of this Section 2.02.

hazardous substances, as to which the Seller makes no representations), so
as to affect adversely the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for
the Mortgage Loan or the use for which the premises were intended and to
the best of the Seller's knowledge, there is no proceeding pending or

full title to the Mortgaged Property in the event foreclosure proceedings
are initiated; and
(xxvi) If the Mortgage Loan is secured by a long-term residential
lease, (1) the lessor under the lease holds a fee simple interest in the
land; (2) the terms of such lease expressly permit the mortgaging of the

lessee upon foreclosure or assignment in lieu of foreclosure or provide the

from being insured (or receiving proceeds of insurance) under the hazard
insurance policy or policies relating to the Mortgaged Property or (d)
permit any increase in rent other than pre-established increases set forth
in the lease; (4) the original term of such lease is not less than 15
years; (5) the term of such lease does not terminate earlier than five
years after the maturity date of the Mortgage Note; and (6) the Mortgaged
Property is located in a jurisdiction in which the use of leasehold estates
in transferring ownership in residential properties is a widely accepted
practice.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no representations or warranties are made by
the Seller as to the environmental condition of any Mortgaged Property; the
absence, presence or effect of hazardous wastes or hazardous substances on any
Mortgaged Property; any casualty resulting from the presence or effect of
hazardous wastes or hazardous substances on, near or emanating from any
Mortgaged Property; the impact on Certificateholders of any environmental
condition or presence of any hazardous substance on or near any Mortgaged
Property; or the compliance of any Mortgaged Property with any environmental
laws, nor is any agent, person or entity otherwise affiliated with the Seller
authorized or able to make any such representation, warranty or assumption of
liability relative to any Mortgaged Property. In addition, no representations or
warranties are made by the Seller with respect to the absence or effect of fraud
in the origination of any Mortgage Loan.
It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set
forth in this Section 2.03(b) shall survive delivery of the respective Owner
Mortgage Loan Files to the Trustee and shall inure to the benefit of the Trustee
notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement or assignment.
(c) Upon discovery by either the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee
or the Custodian that any of the representations and warranties made in
subsection (b) above is not accurate (referred to herein as a "breach") and that
such breach materially and adversely affects the interests of the
Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such
breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties (any Custodian
being so obligated under a Custodial Agreement). Within 60 days of the earlier
of its discovery or its receipt of notice of any such breach, the Seller shall
cure such breach in all material respects or shall either (i) repurchase the
Mortgage Loan or any property acquired in respect thereof from the Trust Estate
at a price equal to (A) 100% of the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage
Loan plus (B) accrued interest at the Net Mortgage Interest Rate for such
Mortgage Loan through the last day of the month in which such repurchase took
place or (ii) if within two years of the Startup Day, or such other period
permitted by the REMIC Provisions, substitute for such Mortgage Loan in the
manner described in Section 2.02. The purchase price of any repurchase described
in this paragraph and the Substitution Principal Amount, if any, plus accrued
interest thereon and the other amounts referred to in Section 2.02, shall be
deposited in the Certificate Account. It is understood and agreed that the
obligation of the Seller to repurchase or substitute for any Mortgage Loan or
property as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall
constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to
Certificateholders or the Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders, and such
obligation shall survive until termination of the Trust Estate hereunder.
Section 2.04. Execution and Delivery of Certificates.
The Trustee acknowledges the assignment to it of the Mortgage Loans and the
delivery of the Owner Mortgage Loan Files to it, and, concurrently with such
delivery, (i) acknowledges the issuance of and hereby declares that it holds the
Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests on behalf of the Upper-Tier REMIC and
Certificateholders and (ii) has executed and delivered to or upon the order of
the Seller, in exchange for the Mortgage Loans and Uncertificated Lower-Tier
Interests together with all other assets included in the definition of "Trust
Estate", receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, Certificates in authorized
denominations which, together with the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests,
evidence ownership of the entire Trust Estate.
Section 2.05. Designation of Certificates; Designation of Startup Day and Latest
Possible Maturity Date.
The Seller hereby designates the Classes of Class A Certificates (other
than the Class A-R and Class A-LR Certificates) and the Classes of Class B
Certificates as classes of "regular interests" and the Class A-R Certificate as
the single class of "residual interest" in the Upper-Tier REMIC for the purposes
of Code Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860G(a)(2), respectively. The Seller hereby

respectively. The Closing Date is hereby designated as the "Startup Day" of each
of the Upper-Tier REMIC and Lower-Tier REMIC within the meaning of Code Section
860G(a)(9). The "latest possible maturity date" of the regular interests in the
Upper-Tier REMIC and Lower-Tier REMIC is July 25, 2028 for purposes of Code

ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION OF THE TRUST ESTATE: SERVICING
OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 3.01. Certificate Account.
(a) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Certificate Account
for the deposit of funds received by the Master Servicer with respect to the
Mortgage Loans serviced by each Servicer pursuant to each of the Servicing
Agreements. Such account shall be maintained as an Eligible Account. The Master
Servicer shall give notice to each Servicer and the Seller of the location of
the Certificate Account and of any change in the location thereof.
(b) The Master Servicer shall deposit into the Certificate Account on the
day of receipt thereof all amounts received by it from any Servicer pursuant to
any of the Servicing Agreements, and shall, in addition, deposit into the
Certificate Account the following amounts, in the case of amounts specified in
clause (i), not later than the Distribution Date on which such amounts are
required to be distributed to Certificateholders and, in the case of the amounts
specified in clause (ii), not later than the Business Day next following the day
of receipt and posting by the Master Servicer:
(i) Periodic Advances pursuant to Section 3.03(a) made by the Master
Servicer or the Trustee, if any and any amounts deemed received by the
Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.01(d); and
(ii) in the case of any Mortgage Loan that is repurchased by the
Seller pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.03 or that is auctioned by the Master
Servicer pursuant to Section 3.08 or purchased by the Master Servicer
pursuant to Section 3.08 or 9.01, the purchase price therefor or, where
applicable, any Substitution Principal Amount and any amounts received in
respect of the interest portion of unreimbursed Periodic Advances.
(c) The Master Servicer shall cause the funds in the Certificate Account to
be invested in Eligible Investments. No such Eligible Investments will be sold
or disposed of at a gain prior to maturity unless the Master Servicer has
received an Opinion of Counsel or other evidence satisfactory to it that such
sale or disposition will not cause the Trust Estate to be subject to Prohibited
Transactions Tax, otherwise subject the Trust Estate to tax, or cause either of
the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC while
any Certificates are outstanding. Any amounts deposited in the Certificate
Account prior to the Distribution Date shall be invested for the account of the
Master Servicer and any investment income thereon shall be additional
compensation to the Master Servicer for services rendered under this Agreement.
The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments shall be
deposited in the Certificate Account by the Master Servicer out of its own funds
immediately as realized.
(d) For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer will be deemed to
have received from a Servicer on the applicable Remittance Date for such funds
all amounts deposited by such Servicer into the Custodial Account for P&I
maintained in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement, if such
Custodial Account for P&I is not an Eligible Account as defined in this
Agreement, to the extent such amounts are not actually received by the Master
Servicer on such Remittance Date as a result of the bankruptcy, insolvency,
receivership or other financial distress of the depository institution in which
such Custodial Account for P&I is being held. To the extent that amounts so
deemed to have been received by the Master Servicer are subsequently remitted to
the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to retain such
amounts.
Section 3.02. Permitted Withdrawals from the Certificate Account.
(a) The Master Servicer may, from time to time, make withdrawals from the
Certificate Account for the following purposes (limited, in the case of Servicer
reimbursements, to cases where funds in the respective Custodial P&I Account are
not sufficient therefor):
(i) to reimburse the Master Servicer, the Trustee or any Servicer for
Periodic Advances made by the Master Servicer or the Trustee pursuant to
Section 3.03(a) or any Servicer pursuant to any Servicing Agreement with
respect to previous Distribution Dates, such right to reimbursement
pursuant to this subclause (i) being limited to amounts received on or in
respect of particular Mortgage Loans (including, for this purpose,
Liquidation Proceeds, REO Proceeds and proceeds from the purchase, sale,
repurchase or substitution of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Sections 2.02,
2.03, 3.08 or 9.01) respecting which any such Periodic Advance was made;
(ii) to reimburse any Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee for
any Periodic Advances determined in good faith to have become
Nonrecoverable Advances provided, however, that any portion of
Nonrecoverable Advances representing Fixed Retained Yield shall be
reimbursable only from amounts constituting Fixed Retained Yield and not
from the assets of the Trust Estate;
(iii) to reimburse the Master Servicer or any Servicer from
Liquidation Proceeds for Liquidation Expenses and for amounts expended by
the Master Servicer or any Servicer pursuant hereto or to any Servicing
Agreement, respectively, in good faith in connection with the restoration
of damaged property or for foreclosure expenses;
(iv) from any Mortgagor payment on account of interest or other
recovery (including Net REO Proceeds) with respect to a particular Mortgage
Loan, to pay the Master Servicing Fee with respect to such Mortgage Loan to
the Master Servicer;
(v) to reimburse the Master Servicer, any Servicer or the Trustee (or,
in certain cases, the Seller) for expenses incurred by it (including taxes
paid on behalf of the Trust Estate) and recoverable by or reimbursable to
it pursuant to Section 3.03(c), 3.03(d) or 6.03 or the second sentence of
Section 8.14(a) or pursuant to such Servicer's Servicing Agreement,
provided such expenses are "unanticipated" within the meaning of the REMIC
Provisions;
(vi) to pay to the Seller or other purchaser with respect to each
Mortgage Loan or property acquired in respect thereof that has been
repurchased or replaced pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.03 or auctioned
pursuant to Section 3.08 or to pay to the Master Servicer with respect to
each Mortgage Loan or property acquired in respect thereof that has been
purchased pursuant to Section 3.08 or 9.01, all amounts received thereon
and not required to be distributed as of the date on which the related
repurchase or purchase price or Scheduled Principal Balance was determined;
(vii) to remit funds to the Paying Agent in the amounts and in the
manner provided for herein;
(viii) to pay to the Master Servicer any interest earned on or
investment income with respect to funds in the Certificate Account;
(ix) to pay to the Master Servicer or any Servicer out of Liquidation
Proceeds allocable to interest the amount of any unpaid Master Servicing
Fee or Servicing Fee (as adjusted pursuant to the related Servicing
Agreement) and any unpaid assumption fees, late payment charges or other
Mortgagor charges on the related Mortgage Loan;
(x) to withdraw from the Certificate Account any amount deposited in
the Certificate Account that was not required to be deposited therein;
(xi) to clear and terminate the Certificate Account pursuant to
Section 9.01; and
(xii) to pay to Norwest Mortgage from any Mortgagor payment on account
of interest or other recovery (including Net REO Proceeds) with respect to
a particular Mortgage Loan, the Fixed Retained Yield, if any, with respect
to such Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that with respect to any payment
of interest received by the Master Servicer in respect of a Mortgage Loan
(whether paid by the Mortgagor or received as Liquidation Proceeds,
Insurance Proceeds or otherwise) which is less than the full amount of
interest then due with respect to such Mortgage Loan, only that portion of
such payment of interest that bears the same relationship to the total
amount of such payment of interest as the Fixed Retained Yield Rate, if
any, in respect of such Mortgage Loan bears to the Mortgage Interest Rate
shall be allocated to the Fixed Retained Yield with respect thereto.
(b) The Master Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a
Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any payment
to and withdrawal from the Certificate Account.
Section 3.03. Advances by Master Servicer and Trustee.
(a) In the event an Other Servicer fails to make any required Periodic
Advances of principal and interest on a Mortgage Loan as required by the related
Other Servicing Agreement prior to the Distribution Date occurring in the month
during which such Periodic Advance is due, the Master Servicer shall make
Periodic Advances to the extent provided hereby. In addition, if under the terms
of an Other Servicing Agreement, the applicable Servicer is not required to make
Periodic Advances on a Mortgage Loan or REO Mortgage Loan through the
liquidation of such Mortgage Loan or REO Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer to
the extent provided hereby shall make the Periodic Advances thereon during the
period the Servicer is not obligated to do so. In the event Norwest Mortgage
fails to make any required Periodic Advances of principal and interest on a
Mortgage Loan as required by the Norwest Servicing Agreement prior to the
Distribution Date occurring in the month during which such Periodic Advance is
due, the Trustee shall, to the extent required by Section 8.15, make such
Periodic Advance to the extent provided hereby, provided that the Trustee has
previously received the certificate of the Master Servicer described in the
following sentence. The Master Servicer shall certify to the Trustee with
respect to any such Distribution Date (i) the amount of Periodic Advances
required of Norwest Mortgage or such Other Servicer, as the case may be, (ii)
the amount actually advanced by Norwest Mortgage or such Other Servicer, (iii)
the amount that the Trustee or Master Servicer is required to advance hereunder
and (iv) whether the Master Servicer has determined that it reasonably believes
that such Periodic Advance is a Nonrecoverable Advance. Amounts advanced by the
Trustee or Master Servicer shall be deposited in the Certificate Account on the
related Distribution Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Master
Servicer nor the Trustee will be obligated to make a Periodic Advance that it
reasonably believes to be a Nonrecoverable Advance. The Trustee may conclusively
rely for any determination to be made by it hereunder upon the determination of
the Master Servicer as set forth in its certificate.
(b) To the extent an Other Servicer fails to make an advance on account of
the taxes or insurance premiums with respect to a Mortgage Loan required
pursuant to the related Other Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall, if
the Master Servicer knows of such failure of the Servicer, advance such funds
and take such steps as are necessary to pay such taxes or insurance premiums. To
the extent Norwest Mortgage fails to make an advance on account of the taxes or
insurance premiums with respect to a Mortgage Loan required pursuant to the
Norwest Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall, if the Master Servicer
knows of such failure of Norwest Mortgage, certify to the Trustee that such
failure has occurred. Upon receipt of such certification, the Trustee shall
advance such funds and take such steps as are necessary to pay such taxes or
insurance premiums.
(c) The Master Servicer and the Trustee shall each be entitled to be
reimbursed from the Certificate Account for any Periodic Advance made by it
under Section 3.03(a) to the extent described in Section 3.02(a)(i) and (a)(ii).
The Master Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed pursuant
to Section 3.02(a)(v) for any advance by it pursuant to Section 3.03(b). The
Master Servicer shall diligently pursue restoration of such amount to the
Certificate Account from the related Servicer. The Master Servicer shall, to the
extent it has not already done so, upon the request of the Trustee, withdraw
from the Certificate Account and remit to the Trustee any amounts to which the
Trustee is entitled as reimbursement pursuant to Section 3.02 (a)(i), (ii) and
(v).
(d) Except as provided in Section 3.03(a) and (b), neither the Master
Servicer nor the Trustee shall be required to pay or advance any amount which
any Servicer was required, but failed, to deposit in the Certificate Account.
Section 3.04. Trustee to Cooperate;
Release of Owner Mortgage Loan Files.
Upon the receipt by the Master Servicer of a Request for Release in
connection with the deposit by a Servicer into the Certificate Account of the
proceeds from a Liquidated Loan or of a Prepayment in Full, the Master Servicer
shall confirm to the Trustee that all amounts required to be remitted to the
Certificate Account in connection with such Mortgage Loan have been so
deposited, and shall deliver such Request for Release to the Trustee. The
Trustee shall, within five Business Days of its receipt of such a Request for
Release, release the related Owner Mortgage Loan File to the Master Servicer or
such Servicer, as requested by the Master Servicer. No expenses incurred in
connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be
chargeable to the Certificate Account.
From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of
any Mortgage Loan, including but not limited to, collection under any insurance
policies, or to effect a partial release of any Mortgaged Property from the lien
of the Mortgage, the Servicer of such Mortgage Loan shall deliver to the Master
Servicer a Request for Release. Upon the Master Servicer's receipt of any such
Request for Release, the Master Servicer shall promptly forward such request to
the Trustee and the Trustee shall, within five Business Days, release the
related Owner Mortgage Loan File to the Master Servicer or such Servicer, as
requested by the Master Servicer. Any such Request for Release shall obligate
the Master Servicer or such Servicer, as the case may be, to return each and
every document previously requested from the Owner Mortgage Loan File to the
Trustee by the twenty-first day following the release thereof, unless (i) the
Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the
Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Certificate Account or (ii) the Owner
Mortgage Loan 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 a certificate of the Master Servicer or
such Servicer certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which such
Owner Mortgage Loan File or such document was delivered and the purpose or
purposes of such delivery. Upon receipt of an Officer's Certificate of the
Master Servicer or such Servicer stating that such Mortgage Loan was liquidated
and that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such
liquidation which are required to be deposited into the Certificate Account have
been so deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Mortgage Loan,
the Request for Release shall be released by the Trustee to the Master Servicer
or such Servicer, as appropriate.
Upon written certification of the Master Servicer or the Servicer of a
Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Master Servicer or
such Servicer, as directed by the Master Servicer, court pleadings, requests for
trustee's sale or other documents 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. Each such
certification shall include a request that such pleadings or documents be
executed by the Trustee and a statement as to the reason such documents or
pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the
Trustee will not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except
for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure proceeding
or trustee's sale.
Section 3.05. Reports to the Trustee; Annual Compliance Statements.
(a) Not later than 15 days after each Distribution Date, the Master
Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee a statement setting forth the status of
the Certificate Account as of the close of business on such Distribution Date
stating that all distributions required to be made by the Master Servicer under
this Agreement have been made (or, if any required distribution has not been
made by the Master Servicer, specifying the nature and status thereof) and
showing, for the period covered by such statement, the aggregate amount of
deposits into and withdrawals from such account for each category of deposit and
withdrawal specified in Sections 3.01 and 3.02. Such statement may be in the
form of the then current FNMA monthly accounting report for its Guaranteed
Mortgage Pass-Through Program with appropriate additions and changes, and shall
also include information as to the aggregate unpaid principal balance of all of
the Mortgage Loans as of the close of business 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 upon written
request, provided such statement is delivered, or caused to be delivered, by the
Master Servicer to the Trustee.
(b) The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee on or before April 30
of each year, a certificate signed by an officer of the Master Servicer,
certifying that (i) such officer has reviewed the activities of the Master
Servicer during the preceding calendar year or portion thereof and its
performance under this agreement and (ii) to the best of such officer's
knowledge, based on such review, the Master Servicer has performed and fulfilled
its duties, responsibilities and obligations under this agreement in all
material respects throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the
fulfillment of any such duties, responsibilities or obligations, specifying each
such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof, and, (iii)
(A) the Master Servicer has received from each Servicer any financial
statements, officer's certificates, accountant's statements or other information
required to be provided to the Master Servicer pursuant to the related Servicing
Agreement and (B) to the best of such officer's knowledge, based on a review of
the information provided to the Master Servicer by each Servicer as described in
(iii)(A) above, each Servicer has performed and fulfilled its duties,
responsibilities and obligations under the related Servicing Agreement in all
material respects throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the
fulfillment of any such duties, responsibilities or obligations, specifying each
such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof. Copies of
such officers' certificate shall be provided by the Trustee to any
Certificateholder upon written request provided such certificate is delivered,
or caused to be delivered, by the Master Servicer to the Trustee.
Section 3.06. Title, Management and Disposition of Any REO Mortgage Loan.
The Master Servicer shall ensure that each REO Mortgage Loan is
administered by the related Servicer at all times so that it qualifies as
"foreclosure property" under the REMIC Provisions and that it does not earn any
"net income from foreclosure property" which is subject to tax under the REMIC
Provisions. In the event that a Servicer is unable to dispose of any REO
Mortgage Loan within the period mandated by each of the Servicing Agreements,
the Master Servicer shall monitor such Servicer to verify that such REO Mortgage
Loan is auctioned to the highest bidder within the period so specified. In the
event of any such sale of REO Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall, at the written
request of the Master Servicer and upon being supported with appropriate forms
therefor, within five Business Days of the deposit by the Master Servicer of the
proceeds of such sale or auction into the Certificate Account, release or cause
to be released to the entity identified by the Master Servicer the related Owner
Mortgage Loan File and Servicer Mortgage Loan File and shall execute and deliver
such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as
shall be necessary to vest in the auction purchaser title to the REO Mortgage
Loan and the Trustee shall have no further responsibility with regard to such
Owner Mortgage Loan File or Servicer Mortgage Loan File. Neither the Trustee,
the Master Servicer nor any Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trust Estate,
shall provide financing from the Trust Estate to any purchaser of an REO
Mortgage Loan.
Section 3.07. Amendments to Servicing Agreements,
Modification of Standard Provisions.
(a) Subject to the prior written consent of the Trustee pursuant to Section
3.07(b), the Master Servicer from time to time may, to the extent permitted by
the applicable Servicing Agreement, make such modifications and amendments to
such Servicing Agreement as the Master Servicer deems necessary or appropriate
to confirm or carry out more fully the intent and purpose of such Servicing
Agreement and the duties, responsibilities and obligations to be performed by
the Servicer thereunder. Such modifications may only be made if they are
consistent with the REMIC Provisions, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel.
Prior to the issuance of any modification or amendment, the Master Servicer
shall deliver to the Trustee such Opinion of Counsel and an Officer's
Certificate setting forth (i) the provision that is to be modified or amended,
(ii) the modification or amendment that the Master Servicer desires to issue and
(iii) the reason or reasons for such proposed amendment or modification.
(b) The Trustee shall consent to any amendment or supplement to a Servicing
Agreement proposed by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.07(a), which
consent and amendment shall not require the consent of any Certificateholder if
it is (i) for the purpose of curing any mistake or ambiguity or to further
effect or protect the rights of the Certificateholders or (ii) for any other
purpose, provided such amendment or supplement for such other purpose cannot
reasonably be expected to adversely affect Certificateholders. The lack of
reasonable expectation of an adverse effect on Certificateholders may be
established through the delivery to the Trustee of (i) an Opinion of Counsel to
such effect or (ii) written notification from each Rating Agency to the effect
that such amendment or supplement will not result in reduction of the current
rating assigned by that Rating Agency to the Certificates. Notwithstanding the
two immediately preceding sentences, the Trustee may, in its discretion, decline
to enter into or consent to any such supplement or amendment if its own rights,
duties or immunities shall be adversely affected.
(c)(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.07, the
Master Servicer from time to time may, without the consent of any
Certificateholder or the Trustee, enter into an amendment (A) to an Other
Servicing Agreement for the purpose of (i) eliminating or reducing Month End
Interest and (ii) providing for the remittance of Full Unscheduled Principal
Receipts by the applicable Servicer to the Master Servicer not later than the
24th day of each month (or if such day is not a Business Day, on the previous
Business Day) or (B) to the Norwest Servicing Agreement for the purpose of
changing the applicable Remittance Date to the 18th day of each month (or if
such day is not a Business Day, on the previous Business Day).
(ii) The Master Servicer may direct Norwest Mortgage to enter into an
amendment to the Norwest Servicing Agreement for the purposes described in
Sections 3.07(c)(i)(B) and 10.01(b)(iii).
Section 3.08. Oversight of Servicing.
The Master Servicer shall supervise, monitor and oversee the servicing of
the Mortgage Loans by each Servicer and the performance by each Servicer of all
services, duties, responsibilities and obligations that are to be observed or
performed by the Servicer under its respective Servicing Agreement. In
performing its obligations hereunder, the Master Servicer shall act in a manner
consistent with Accepted Master Servicing Practices and with the Trustee's and
the Certificateholders' reliance on the Master Servicer, and in a manner
consistent with the terms and provisions of any insurance policy required to be
maintained by the Master Servicer or any Servicer pursuant to this Agreement or
any Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer acknowledges that prior to taking
certain actions required to service the Mortgage Loans, each Servicing Agreement
provides that the Servicer thereunder must notify, consult with, obtain the
consent of or otherwise follow the instructions of the Master Servicer. The
Master Servicer is also given authority to waive compliance by a Servicer with
certain provisions of its Servicing Agreement. In each such instance, the Master
Servicer shall promptly instruct such Servicer or otherwise respond to such
Servicer's request. In no event will the Master Servicer instruct such Servicer
to take any action, give any consent to action by such Servicer or waive
compliance by such Servicer with any provision of such Servicer's Servicing
Agreement if any resulting action or failure to act would be inconsistent with
the requirements of the Rating Agencies that rated the Certificates or would
otherwise have an adverse effect on the Certificateholders. Any such action or
failure to act shall be deemed to have an adverse effect on the
Certificateholders if such action or failure to act either results in (i) the
downgrading of the rating assigned by any Rating Agency to the Certificates,
(ii) the loss by the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC of REMIC status
for federal income tax purposes or (iii) the imposition of any Prohibited
Transaction Tax or any federal taxes on either the Upper-Tier REMIC, the
Lower-Tier REMIC or the Trust Estate. The Master Servicer shall have full power
and authority in its sole discretion to take any action with respect to the
Trust Estate as may be necessary or advisable to avoid the circumstances
specified including clause (ii) or (iii) of the preceding sentence.
For the purposes of determining whether any modification of a Mortgage Loan
shall be permitted by the Trustee or the Master Servicer, such modification
shall be construed as a substitution of the modified Mortgage Loan for the
Mortgage Loan originally deposited in the Trust Estate if it would be a
"significant modification" within the meaning of Section 1.860G-2(b) of the
regulations of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. No modification shall be
approved unless (i) the modified Mortgage Loan would qualify as a Substitute
Mortgage Loan under Section 2.02 and (ii) with respect to any modification that
occurs more than three months after the Closing Date and is not the result of a
default or a reasonably foreseeable default under the Mortgage Loan, there is
delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party
seeking to modify the Mortgage Loan) to the effect that such modification would
not be treated as giving rise to a new debt instrument for federal income tax
purposes as described in the preceding sentence.
During the term of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall consult fully
with each Servicer as may be necessary from time to time to perform and carry
out the Master Servicer's obligations hereunder and otherwise exercise
reasonable efforts to encourage such Servicer to perform and observe the
covenants, obligations and conditions to be performed or observed by it under
its Servicing Agreement.
The relationship of the Master Servicer to the Trustee under this Agreement
is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that
of a joint venturer, partner or agent.
The Master Servicer shall administer the Trust Estate on behalf of the
Trustee and shall have full power and authority, acting alone or (subject to
Section 6.06) through one or more subcontractors, to do any and all things in
connection with such administration which it may deem necessary or desirable.
Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and from time to time as may
be required thereafter, the Trustee shall furnish the Master Servicer or its
subcontractors with any powers of attorney and such other documents as may be
necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to carry out its
administrative duties hereunder.
The Seller shall be entitled to repurchase at its option any defaulted
Mortgage Loan or any Mortgage Loan as to which default is reasonably foreseeable
from the Trust Estate if, in the Seller's judgment, the default is not likely to
be cured by the Mortgagor; provided, however, that the Cut-Off Date Principal
Balances of the Mortgage Loans repurchased pursuant to this provision shall not
exceed 2.5% of the Cut-Off Date Aggregate Principal Balance of the Mortgage
Loans. The purchase price for any such Mortgage Loan shall be 100% of the unpaid
principal balance of such Mortgage Loan plus accrued interest thereon at the
Mortgage Interest Rate for such Mortgage Loan, through the last day of the month
in which such repurchase occurs. Upon the receipt of such purchase price, the
Master Servicer shall provide to the Trustee the certification required by
Section 3.04 and the Trustee and the Custodian, if any, shall promptly release
to the Seller the Owner Mortgage Loan File relating to the Mortgage Loan being
repurchased.
In the event that (i) the Master Servicer determines at any time that,
notwithstanding the representations and warranties set forth in Section 2.03(b),
any Mortgage Loan is not a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning of Section
860G of the Code and (ii) the Master Servicer is unable to enforce the
obligation of the Seller to purchase such Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.02
within two months of such determination, the Master Servicer shall cause such
Mortgage Loan to be auctioned to the highest bidder and sold out of the Trust
Estate no later than the date 90 days after such determination. In the event of
any such sale of a Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall, at the written request of
the Master Servicer and upon being supported with appropriate forms therefor,
within five Business Days of the deposit by the Master Servicer of the proceeds
of such auction into the Certificate Account, release or cause to be released to
the entity identified by the Master Servicer the related Owner Mortgage Loan
File and Servicer Mortgage Loan File and shall execute and deliver such
instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall
be necessary to vest in the auction purchaser title to the Mortgage Loan and the
Trustee shall have no further responsibility with regard to such Owner Mortgage
Loan File or Servicer Mortgage Loan File. Neither the Trustee, the Master
Servicer nor any Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee, shall provide
financing from the Trust Estate to any purchaser of a Mortgage Loan.
The Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, pursuant to the
Servicing Agreements, object to the foreclosure upon, or other related
conversion of the ownership of, any Mortgaged Property by the related Servicer
if (i) the Master Servicer believes such Mortgaged Property may be contaminated
with or affected by hazardous wastes or hazardous substances or (ii) such
Servicer does not agree to administer such Mortgaged Property, once the related
Mortgage Loan becomes an REO Mortgage Loan, in a manner which would not result
in a federal tax being imposed upon the Trust Estate or the Upper-Tier REMIC or
Lower-Tier REMIC.
The Master Servicer may enter into a special servicing agreement with an
unaffiliated holder of 100% Percentage Interest of a Class of Class B
Certificates or a holder of a class of securities representing interests in the
Class B Certificates and/or other subordinated mortgage pass-through
certificates, such agreement to be substantially in the form of Exhibit M hereto
or subject to each Rating Agency's acknowledgment that the ratings of the
Certificates in effect immediately prior to the entering into of such agreement
would not be qualified, downgraded or withdrawn and the Certificates would not
be placed on credit review status (except for possible upgrading) (without, in
the case of the Class A-17 Certificates, giving effect to the guaranty provided
by Ambac) as a result of such agreement. Any such agreement may contain
provisions whereby such holder may instruct the Master Servicer to instruct a
Servicer to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement to
commence or delay foreclosure proceedings with respect to delinquent Mortgage
Loans and will contain provisions for the deposit of cash by the holder that
would be available for distribution to Certificateholders if Liquidation
Proceeds are less than they otherwise may have been had the Servicer acted in
accordance with its normal procedures.
Section 3.09. Termination and Substitution of Servicing Agreements.
Upon the occurrence of any event for which a Servicer may be terminated
pursuant to its Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall promptly deliver
to the Seller and the Trustee an Officer's Certificate certifying that an event
has occurred which may justify termination of such Servicing Agreement,
describing the circumstances surrounding such event and recommending what action
should be taken by the Trustee with respect to such Servicer. If the Master
Servicer recommends that such Servicing Agreement be terminated, the Master
Servicer's certification must state that the breach is material and not merely
technical in nature. Upon written direction of the Master Servicer, based upon
such certification, the Trustee shall promptly terminate such Servicing
Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that (i) Norwest Mortgage
fails to make any advance, as a consequence of which the Trustee is obligated to
make an advance pursuant to Section 3.03 and (ii) the Trustee provides Norwest
Mortgage written notice of the failure to make such advance and such failure
shall continue unremedied for a period of 15 days after receipt of such notice,
the Trustee shall terminate the Norwest Servicing Agreement without the
recommendation of the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall indemnify the
Trustee and hold it harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities,
costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees)
arising out of, or assessed against the Trustee in connection with termination
of such Servicing Agreement at the direction of the Master Servicer. If the
Trustee terminates such Servicing Agreement, the Trustee may enter into a
substitute Servicing Agreement with the Master Servicer or, at the Master
Servicer's nomination, with another mortgage loan service company acceptable to
the Trustee, the Master Servicer and each Rating Agency under which the Master
Servicer or such substitute servicer, as the case may be, shall assume, satisfy,
perform and carry out all liabilities, duties, responsibilities and obligations
that are to be, or otherwise were to have been, satisfied, performed and carried
out by such Servicer under such terminated Servicing Agreement. Until such time
as the Trustee enters into a substitute servicing agreement with respect to the
Mortgage Loans previously serviced by such Servicer, the Master Servicer shall
assume, satisfy, perform and carry out all obligations which otherwise were to
have been satisfied, performed and carried out by such Servicer under its
terminated Servicing Agreement. However, in no event shall the Master Servicer
be deemed to have assumed the obligations of a Servicer to advance payments of
principal and interest on a delinquent Mortgage Loan in excess of the Master
Servicer's independent Periodic Advance obligation under Section 3.03 of this
Agreement. As compensation for the Master Servicer of any servicing obligations
fulfilled or assumed by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall be
entitled to any servicing compensation to which a Servicer would have been
entitled if the Servicing Agreement with such Servicer had not been terminated.
Section 3.10. Application of Net Liquidation Proceeds.
For all purposes under this agreement, Net Liquidation Proceeds received
from a Servicer shall be allocated first to accrued and unpaid interest on the
related Mortgage Loan and then to the unpaid principal balance thereof.
Section 3.11. 1934 Act Reports.
The Master Servicer shall, on behalf of the Seller, make all filings
required to be made by the Seller with respect to the Class A Certificates
(other than the Class A-PO Certificates) and the Class B-1, Class B-2 and Class
B-3 Certificates pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

(ii)Distributions on the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests. On each
Distribution Date, each Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest shall receive
distributions in respect of principal in an amount equal to the amount of

respect of its Corresponding Upper-Tier Class or Classes, in each case to the
extent actually distributed (or, in the case of a Class of Accrual Certificates,

Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests in respect of principal and interest with
respect to any Distribution Date are referred to herein collectively as the
"Lower-Tier Distribution Amount."
As of any date, the principal balance of each Uncertificated Lower-Tier
Interest equals the Principal Balances of the respective Corresponding
Upper-Tier Class or Classes. The initial principal balance of each
Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest equals the Original Principal Balances of the
respective Corresponding Upper-Tier Class or Classes.
The pass-through rate with respect to the Class A-L1 Interest, Class A-L2
Interest, Class B-L1 Interest, Class BL-2 Interest, Class BL-3 Interest, Class

distributions of interest. Any Non-Supported Interest Shortfalls will be
allocated to each Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest in the same relative
proportions as interest is allocated to such Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest.
(b) The Class A-3 and Class A-18 Certificates are interest-only
Certificates and are not entitled to distributions in respect of principal.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, on each Distribution Date occurring on
or subsequent to the Cross-Over Date, the Class A Non-PO Principal Distribution
Amount shall be distributed among the Classes of Class A Certificates (other
than the Class A-PO Certificates) pro rata in accordance with their outstanding
Principal Balances without regard to either the proportions or the priorities
set forth in Section 4.01(b).
(d) (i)......For purposes of determining whether the Classes of Class B
Certificates are eligible to receive distributions of principal with respect to
any Distribution Date, the following tests shall apply:
(A) if the Current Class B-1 Fractional Interest is less than the
Original Class B-1 Fractional Interest and the Class B-1 Principal Balance
is greater than zero, the Class B-2, Class B-3, Class B-4, Class B-5 and
Class B-6 Certificates shall not be eligible to receive distributions of
principal; or
(B) if the Current Class B-2 Fractional Interest is less than the
Original Class B-2 Fractional Interest and the Class B-2 Principal Balance
is greater than zero, the Class B-3, Class B-4, Class B-5 and Class B-6
Certificates shall not be eligible to receive distributions of principal;
or
(C) if the Current Class B-3 Fractional Interest is less than the
Original Class B-3 Fractional Interest and the Class B-3 Principal Balance
is greater than zero, the Class B-4, Class B-5 and Class B-6 Certificates
shall not be eligible to receive distributions of principal; or
(D) if the Current Class B-4 Fractional Interest is less than the
Original Class B-4 Fractional Interest and the Class B-4 Principal Balance
is greater than zero, the Class B-5 and Class B-6 Certificates shall not be
eligible to receive distributions of principal; or
(E) if the Current Class B-5 Fractional Interest is less than the
Original Class B-5 Fractional Interest and the Class B-5 Principal Balance
is greater than zero, the Class B-6 Certificates shall not be eligible to
receive distributions of principal.
(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on any Distribution Date the
aggregate distributions to Holders of the Classes of Class B Certificates
entitled to receive distributions of principal would reduce the Principal
Balances of the Classes of Class B Certificates entitled to receive
distributions of principal below zero, first the Class B Prepayment Percentage
of any affected Class of Class B Certificates for such Distribution Date
beginning with the affected Class with the lowest numerical Class designation
and then, if necessary, the Class B Percentage of such Class of the Class B
Certificates for such Distribution Date shall be reduced to the respective
percentages necessary to bring the Principal Balance of such Class of Class B
Certificates to zero. The Class B Prepayment Percentages and the Class B
Percentages of the remaining Classes of Class B Certificates will be recomputed
substituting for the Subordinated Prepayment Percentage and Subordinated
Percentage in such computations the difference between (A) the Subordinated
Prepayment Percentage or Subordinated Percentage, as the case may be, and (B)
the percentages determined in accordance with the preceding sentence necessary
to bring the Principal Balances of the affected Classes of Class B Certificates
to zero; provided, however, that if the Principal Balances of all the Classes of
Class B Certificates eligible to receive distributions of principal shall be
reduced to zero on such Distribution Date, the Class B Prepayment Percentage and
the Class B Percentage of the Class of Class B Certificates with the lowest
numerical Class designation which would otherwise be ineligible to receive
distributions of principal in accordance with this Section shall equal the
remainder of the Subordinated Prepayment Percentage for such Distribution Date
minus the sum of the Class B Prepayment Percentages of the Classes of Class B
Certificates having lower numerical Class designations, if any, and the
remainder of the Subordinated Percentage for such Distribution Date minus the
sum of the Class B Percentages of the Classes of Class B Certificates having
lower numerical Class designations, if any, respectively. Any entitlement of any
Class of Class B Certificates to principal payments solely pursuant to this
clause (ii) shall not cause such Class to be regarded as being eligible to
receive principal distributions for the purpose of applying the definition of
its Class B Percentage or Class B Prepayment Percentage.
(e) The Trustee shall establish and maintain the Upper-Tier Certificate
Account, which shall be a separate trust account and an Eligible Account. On
each Distribution Date other than the Final Distribution Date (if such Final
Distribution Date is in connection with a purchase of the assets of the Trust
Estate by the Seller), the Paying Agent shall, on behalf of the Master Servicer,
from funds available on deposit in the Payment Account, (i) deposit, in
immediately available funds, by wire transfer or otherwise, into the Upper-Tier
Certificate Account the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount and (ii) distribute to
the Class A-LR Certificateholder (other than as provided in Section 9.01
respecting the final distribution to Certificateholders) by check mailed to such
Holder at the address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate Register, the
Class A Distribution Amount with respect to the Class A-LR Certificate and all
other amounts distributable to the Class A-LR Certificate. The Trustee may clear
and terminate the Upper-Tier Certificate Account pursuant to Section 9.01.
(f) On each Distribution Date other than the Final Distribution Date (if
such Final Distribution Date is in connection with a purchase of the assets of
the Trust Estate by the Seller), the Paying Agent shall, on behalf of the Master
Servicer, from funds remitted to it by the Master Servicer, distribute to each
Certificateholder of record (other than the Class A-LR Certificateholder) on the
preceding Record Date (other than as provided in Section 9.01 respecting the
final distribution to Certificateholders or in the last paragraph of this
Section 4.01(f) respecting the final distribution in respect of any Class)
either in immediately available funds by wire transfer to the account of such
Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities
therefor, if such Certificateholder holds Certificates having a Denomination at
least equal to that specified in Section 11.24, and has so notified the Master
Servicer or, if applicable, the Paying Agent at least seven Business Days prior
to the Distribution Date or, if such Holder holds Certificates having, in the
aggregate, a Denomination less than the requisite minimum Denomination or if
such Holder holds the Class A-R Certificate or has not so notified the Paying
Agent, by check mailed to such Holder at the address of such Holder appearing in
the Certificate Register, such Holder's share of the Class A Distribution Amount
with respect to each Class of Class A Certificates (other than the Class A-17
Certificates) and the Class B Distribution Amount with respect to each such
Class of Class B Certificates and, in the case of the Class A-17 Certificates,
as provided in Section 4.07.
In the event that, on any Distribution Date prior to the Final Distribution
Date, the Principal Balance of any Class of Class A Certificates (other than the
Class A-3, Class A-18, Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificates) or the Principal
Balance of any Class of Class B Certificates would be reduced to zero, in the
case of the Class A-3 Certificates, the Class A-3 Notional Amount would be
reduced to zero, in the case of the Class A-18 Certificates, the Class A-18
Notional Amount would be reduced to zero, the Master Servicer shall, as soon as
practicable after the Determination Date relating to such Distribution Date,
send a notice to the Trustee. The Trustee will then send a notice to each
Certificateholder of such Class with a copy to the Certificate Registrar,
specifying that the final distribution with respect to such Class will be made
on such Distribution Date only upon the presentation and surrender of such
Certificateholder's Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee therein
specified; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice will not
entitle a Certificateholder to any interest beyond the interest payable with
respect to such Distribution Date in accordance with Section 4.01(a)(i).
(g) The Paying Agent (or if no Paying Agent is appointed by the Master
Servicer, the Master Servicer) shall withhold or cause to be withheld such
amounts as may be required by the Code (giving full effect to any exemptions
from withholding and related certifications required to be furnished by
Certificateholders and any reductions to withholding by virtue of any bilateral
tax treaties and any applicable certification required to be furnished by
Certificateholders with respect thereto) from distributions to be made to
Persons other than U.S. Persons ("Non-U.S. Persons"). Amounts withheld pursuant
to this Section 4.01(g) shall be treated as having been distributed to the
related Certificateholder for all purposes of this Agreement. For the purposes
of this paragraph, a "U.S. Person" is a citizen or resident of the United
States, a corporation, partnership (except to the extent provided in applicable
Treasury regulations) or other entity created or organized in or under the laws
of the United States or any political subdivision thereof, an estate that is
subject to United States federal income tax regardless of the source of its
income or a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise
primary supervision over the administration of such trust, and one or more such
U.S. Persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of such
trust (or, to the extent provided in applicable Treasury regulations, certain
trusts in existence on August 20, 1996 which are eligible to elect to be treated
as U.S. Persons).
Section 4.02......Allocation of Realized Losses.
(a) With respect to any Distribution Date, the principal portion of
Realized Losses (other than Debt Service Reductions, Excess Special Hazard
Losses, Excess Fraud Losses and Excess Bankruptcy Losses) will be allocated as
follows:
first, to the Class B-6 Certificates until the Class B-6 Principal Balance
has been reduced to zero;
second, to the Class B-5 Certificates until the Class B-5 Principal Balance
has been reduced to zero;
third, to the Class B-4 Certificates until the Class B-4 Principal Balance
has been reduced to zero;
fourth, to the Class B-3 Certificates until the Class B-3 Principal Balance
has been reduced to zero;
fifth, to the Class B-2 Certificates until the Class B-2 Principal Balance
has been reduced to zero;
sixth, to the Class B-1 Certificates until the Class B-1 Principal Balance
has been reduced to zero; and
seventh, concurrently, to the Class A Certificates (other than the Class
A-PO Certificates) and Class A-PO Certificates, pro rata, based on the Non-PO
Fraction and the PO Fraction, respectively.
This allocation of Realized Losses will be effected through the reduction
of the applicable Class's Principal Balance.
(b) With respect to any Distribution Date, the principal portion of Excess
Special Hazard Losses, Excess Fraud Losses and Excess Bankruptcy Losses
occurring with respect to any Mortgage Loan allocable to the Class A-PO
Certificates will equal the product of the amount of any such principal loss and
the PO Fraction for such Mortgage Loan. The principal portion of any Excess
Special Hazard Losses, Excess Fraud Losses and Excess Bankruptcy Losses
remaining after allocation to the Class A-PO Certificates in accordance with the
preceding sentence shall be allocated pro rata among the Class A Certificates
(other than the Class A-PO Certificates) and Class B Certificates based on the
Class A Non-PO Principal Balance and the Class B Principal Balance,
respectively. Any such loss allocated to the Class A Certificates shall be
allocated on the subsequent Determination Date among the outstanding Classes of
Class A Certificates (other than the Class A-PO Certificates) in accordance with
the Class A Loss Percentages as of such Determination Date. Any such loss
allocated to the Class B Certificates shall be allocated pro rata among the
outstanding Classes of Class B Certificates based on their Principal Balances.
(c) Any Realized Losses allocated to a Class of Class A Certificates or
Class B Certificates pursuant to Section 4.02(a) or Section 4.02(b) shall be
allocated among the Certificates of such Class based on their Percentage
Interests.
(d) In the event that there is a Recovery of an amount in respect of
principal of a Mortgage Loan which had previously been allocated as a Realized
Loss to any Classes of Class A Certificates or any Classes of Class B
Certificates, each outstanding Class to which such Realized Loss had previously
been allocated shall be entitled to its share (with respect to the Class A-PO
Certificates, based on the PO Fraction of such Mortgage Loan and, with respect
to the Class A Certificates (other than the Class A-PO Certificates) and Class B
Certificates, based on their pro rata share of the Non-PO Fraction of such
Mortgage Loan) of such Recovery up to the amount of such Realized Loss
previously allocated to such Class on the Distribution Date in the month
following the month in which such recovery is received. When the Principal
Balance of a Class of Certificates has been reduced to zero, such Class shall
not be entitled to any share of such Recovery. In the event that the amount of
such Recovery exceeds the amount of such Recovery allocated to each outstanding
Class in accordance with the preceding provisions, each outstanding Class shall
be entitled to its pro rata share (determined as described above) of such excess
up to the amount of any unrecovered Realized Loss previously allocated to such
Class. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, but subject to the following
proviso, if such Recovery occurs within two years of the realization of such
loss and (i) is the result of an event that would have given rise to the
repurchase of the related Mortgage Loan by the Seller pursuant to Section 2.02
or 2.03, or (ii) represents in whole or part funds which the applicable Servicer
had received in respect of a Liquidated Loan but failed to remit to the
Certificate Account on or prior to the Business Day preceding the Distribution
Date following the Applicable Unscheduled Principal Receipt Period in which the
Mortgage Loan became a Liquidated Loan, such Recovery may, at the sole
discretion of the Master Servicer, be treated as a repurchase or an Unscheduled
Principal Receipt with respect to such Mortgage Loan, as the case may be, the
Realized Loss previously recognized may be reversed and treated for all
subsequent purposes as if it had never occurred and the Master Servicer may make
such adjustments to interest or principal distributions on the Certificates and
to the principal balances of the Certificates as the Master Servicer in its good
faith judgment and sole discretion deems necessary or desirable to effectuate
the reversal of the Realized Loss and the treatment of such amount as a
repurchase or as an Unscheduled Principal Receipt, as the case may be; provided
that such actions do not result in the aggregate distributions made in respect
of each Class of Certificates whose principal balances were previously reduced
as a result of such Realized Loss being less than such Class would have received
if such Recovery had been deposited in the Certificate Account on or prior to
the Business Day preceding the Distribution Date following the Applicable
Unscheduled Principal Receipt Period in which the Mortgage Loan became a
Liquidated Loan.
(e) The interest portion of Excess Special Hazard Losses, Excess Fraud
Losses and Excess Bankruptcy Losses shall be allocated between (i) the Class A
Certificates and the Premium Payment and (ii) the Class B Certificates, pro rata
based on the Senior Accrual Amount and the Class B Interest Accrual Amount for
the related Distribution Date, without regard to any reduction pursuant to this
sentence. Any such loss allocated to the Class A Certificates and the Premium
Payment shall be allocated among the outstanding Classes of Class A Certificates
and the Premium Payment based on their Class A Interest Percentages and the
Premium Percentage, as the case may be. Any such loss allocated to the Class B
Certificates will be allocated among the outstanding Classes of Class B
Certificates based on their Class B Interest Percentages. In addition, after the
Class B Principal Balance has been reduced to zero, the interest portion of
Realized Losses (other than Excess Special Hazard Losses, Excess Fraud Losses
and Excess Bankruptcy Losses) will be allocated among the outstanding Classes of
Class A Certificates and the Premium Payment based on their Class A Interest
Percentages and the Premium Percentage, as the case may be.
(f) Realized Losses allocated in accordance with this Section 4.02 will be
allocated on the Determination Date in the second month following the month in
which such loss was incurred with respect to the preceding Distribution Date.
(g) With respect to any Distribution Date, the principal portion of
Realized Losses and recoveries attributable to previously allocated Realized
Losses allocated pursuant to this Section 4.02 will be allocated to each
Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest in an amount equal to the amount allocated to
its respective Corresponding Upper-Tier Class or Classes as provided above.
With respect to any Distribution Date, the interest portion of Realized
Losses allocated pursuant to this Section 4.02 will be allocated to each
Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest in the same relative proportions as interest
is allocated to such Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest.
Section 4.03......Paying Agent.
(a) The Master Servicer hereby appoints the Trustee as initial Paying Agent
to make distributions to Certificateholders and to forward to Certificateholders
the periodic statements and the annual statements required by Section 4.04 as
agent of the Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer may, at any time, remove or replace the Paying Agent.
The Master Servicer shall cause any Paying Agent that is not the Trustee to
execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent
agrees with the Trustee that such Paying Agent shall:

distribution to Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of
Certificateholders until such amounts are distributed to Certificateholders
or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;
(ii) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Master Servicer in
remitting any required amount; and
(iii) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the
written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all amounts
held in trust by such Paying Agent.
(b) The Paying Agent shall establish and maintain a Payment Account, which
shall be a separate trust account and an Eligible Account, in which the Master

a.m., New York time, on the Business Day preceding each Distribution Date, by
wire transfer of immediately available funds, any Periodic Advance for such
Distribution Date, pursuant to Section 3.03 and (ii) at or before 10:00 a.m.,
New York time, on the Business Day preceding each Distribution Date, by wire
transfer of immediately available funds, (a) an amount equal to the Pool
Distribution Amount, (b) Net Foreclosure Profits, if any, with respect to such
Distribution Date and (c) the amount of any recovery in respect of a Realized
Loss. The Master Servicer may cause the Paying Agent to invest the funds in the
Payment Account. Any such investment shall be in Eligible Investments, which
shall mature not later than the Business Day preceding the related Distribution
Date (unless the Eligible Investments are obligations of the Trustee, in which
case such Eligible Investments shall mature not later than the Distribution
Date), and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to maturity. All income and
gain realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit of the Master
Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal or order from time to time. The
amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments shall be
deposited in the Payment Account by the Master Servicer out of its own funds
immediately as realized. The Paying Agent may withdraw from the Payment Account
any amount deposited in the Payment Account that was not required to be
deposited therein and may clear and terminate the Payment Account pursuant to
Section 9.01.
Section 4.04. Statements to Certificateholders;
Report to the Trustee, Ambac and the Seller.
Concurrently with each distribution pursuant to Section 4.01(f), the Master

Servicer, or (ii) knows or has reason to know that a Mortgaged Property has been
abandoned. Reports from the Servicers shall be in form and substance sufficient

With respect to each Distribution Date, the Reserve Withdrawal shall be
withdrawn by the Trustee from the amount on deposit in the Reserve Fund in
accordance with this Section 4.06 and distributed on such Distribution Date to
the Holders of the Class A-17 Certificates, pro rata, based on Percentage
Interest.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on the Distribution Date
on which the Class A Principal Balance of the Class A-17 Certificates has been
reduced to zero, any funds then on deposit in the Reserve Fund shall be
distributed to Xxxxxx Brothers at the address provided by it to the Trustee.
(b) The Reserve Fund will be an "outside reserve fund" under the REMIC
Provisions that is beneficially owned for federal income tax purposes by Xxxxxx
Brothers, which shall report all income, gain, deduction or loss with respect
thereto, and will not be an asset of the Upper-Tier REMIC, the Lower-Tier REMIC
or the Trust Estate.
Section 4.07. Distributions in Reduction of the Class A-17 Certificates.
Distributions in reduction of the Class A Principal Balance of the Class
A-17 Certificates will be made in integral multiples of $1,000 at the request of
the appropriate representatives of Deceased Holders of such Class and at the
request of Living Holders of such Class or by mandatory distributions by random
lot, pursuant to clauses (a) and (d) below, or on a pro rata basis pursuant to
clause (f) below.
(a) On each Distribution Date on which distributions in reduction of the
Class A Principal Balance of the Class A-17 Certificates are made, such
distributions will be made with respect to such Class in the following priority:
(i) any request by the personal representatives of a Deceased Holder
or by a surviving tenant by the entirety, by a surviving joint tenant or by
a surviving tenant in common, but not exceeding an aggregate principal
balance for such Class of $100,000 per request; and
(ii)any request by a Living Holder, but not exceeding an aggregate
principal balance for such Class of $10,000 per request.
Thereafter, distributions will be made, with respect to such Class, as
provided in clauses (i) and (ii) above up to a second $100,000 and $10,000,
respectively. This sequence of priorities will be repeated for each request for
principal distributions for such Class made by the Beneficial Owners of the
Class A-17 Certificates until all such requests have been honored.
For each such sequence of priorities described above, requests for
distributions in reduction of the principal balances of Class A-17 Certificates
presented on behalf of Deceased Holders in accordance with the provisions of
clause (i) above will be accepted in order of their receipt by the Clearing
Agency and requests for distributions in reduction of the principal balance of
Class A-17 Certificates presented by Living Holders in accordance with the
provisions of clause (ii) above will be accepted in the order of their receipt
by the Clearing Agency after all requests with respect to such Class presented
in accordance with clause (i) have been honored. All requests for distributions
in reduction of the principal balances of the Class A-17 Certificates will be
accepted in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 4.07(c). All
requests for distributions in reduction of the principal balance of Class A-17
Certificates with respect to any Distribution Date must be received by the
Clearing Agency and forwarded to, and received by, the Trustee no later than the
close of business on the related Record Date. Requests for distributions which
are received by the Clearing Agency and forwarded to, and received by, the
Trustee after the related Record Date and requests, in either case, for
distributions not accepted with respect to any Distribution Date, will be
treated as requests for distributions in reduction of the principal balance of
Class A-17 Certificates on the next succeeding Distribution Date, and each
succeeding Distribution Date thereafter, until each such request is accepted or
is withdrawn as provided in Section 4.07(c). Such requests as are not so
withdrawn shall retain their order of priority without the need for any further
action on the part of the appropriate Beneficial Owner of the related Class A-17
Certificate, all in accordance with the procedures of the Clearing Agency and
the Trustee. Upon the transfer of beneficial ownership of any Class A-17
Certificate, any distribution request previously submitted with respect to such
Certificate will be deemed to have been withdrawn only upon the receipt by the
Trustee of notification of such withdrawal in the manner required by the
Clearing Agency under its APUT System.
Distributions in reduction of the principal balances of the Class A-17
Certificates will be applied, in the aggregate with respect to such Class, in an
amount equal to the Class A Non-PO Principal Distribution Amount allocable to
such Class pursuant to Section 4.01(b) plus any amounts distributable to the
Class A-17 Certificates as a payment under the Policy of a Class A-17 Principal
Loss Amount of the type described in clause (i) of the definition thereof, minus
amounts to repay any funds withdrawn from the Rounding Account for the prior
Distribution Date, plus any amounts available for distribution from the Rounding
Account for such Class established as provided in Section 4.07(e), provided that
the aggregate distribution in reduction of the Class A Principal Balance of such
Class on any Distribution Date is made in an integral multiple of $1,000.
To the extent that the portion of the Class A Non-PO Principal Distribution
Amount allocable to distributions in reduction of the Class A Principal Balance
of the Class A-17 Certificates on any Distribution Date plus any amounts
distributable to the Class A-17 Certificates as a payment under the Policy of a
Class A-17 Principal Loss Amount of the type described in clause (i) of the
definition hereof (minus amounts to repay any funds withdrawn from the Rounding
Account on the prior Distribution Date and plus any amounts required to be
distributed from the Rounding Account pursuant to Section 4.07(e)) exceeds the
aggregate principal balances of Class A-17 Certificates with respect to which
distribution requests, as set forth above, have been received distributions in
reduction of the Class A Principal Balance of the Class A-17 Certificates will
be made by mandatory distribution pursuant to Section 4.07(d).
(b) A Class A-17 Certificate shall be deemed to be held by a Deceased
Holder for purposes of this Section 4.07 if the death of the Beneficial Owner
thereof is deemed to have occurred. Class A-17 Certificates beneficially owned
by tenants by the entirety, joint tenants or tenants in common will be
considered to be beneficially owned by a single owner. The death of a tenant by
the entirety, joint tenant or tenant in common will be deemed to be the death of
the Beneficial Owner, and the Class A-17 Certificates so beneficially owned will
be eligible for priority with respect to distributions in reduction of the
principal balance of such Class thereof, subject to the limitations stated
above. Class A-17 Certificates beneficially owned by a trust will be considered
to be beneficially owned by each beneficiary of the trust to the extent of such
beneficiary's beneficial interest therein, but in no event will a trust's
beneficiaries collectively be deemed to be Beneficial Owners of a number of
Individual Class A-17 Certificates greater than the number of Individual Class
A-17 Certificates of which such trust is the owner. The death of a beneficiary
of a trust will be deemed to be the death of a Beneficial Owner of the Class
A-17 Certificates owned by the trust to the extent of such beneficiary's
beneficial interest in such trust. The death of an individual who was a tenant
by the entirety, joint tenant or tenant in common in a tenancy which is the
beneficiary of a trust will be deemed to be the death of the beneficiary of such
trust. The death of a person who, during his or her lifetime, was entitled to
substantially all of the beneficial ownership interests in Individual Class A-17
Certificates will be deemed to be the death of the Beneficial Owner of such
Class A-17 Certificates regardless of the registration of ownership, if such
beneficial interest can be established to the satisfaction of the Trustee. Such
beneficial interest will be deemed to exist in typical cases of street name or
nominee ownership, ownership by a trustee, ownership under the Uniform Gifts to
Minors Act and community property or other joint ownership arrangements between
a husband and wife. Beneficial interests shall include the power to sell,
transfer or otherwise dispose of a Class A-17 Certificate and the right to
receive the proceeds therefrom, as well as interest and distributions in
reduction of the principal balances of the Class A-17 Certificates payable with
respect thereto. The Trustee shall not be under any duty to determine
independently the occurrence of the death of any deceased Beneficial Owner. The
Trustee may rely entirely upon documentation delivered to it pursuant to Section
4.07(c) in establishing the eligibility of any Beneficial Owner to receive the
priority accorded Deceased Holders in Section 4.07(a).
(c) Requests for distributions in reduction of the principal balance of
Class A-17 Certificates must be made by delivering a written request therefor to
the Clearing Agency Participant or Clearing Agency Indirect Participant that
maintains the account evidencing such Beneficial Owner's interest in Class A-17
Certificates. In the case of a request on behalf of a Deceased Holder,
appropriate evidence of death and any tax waivers are required to be forwarded
to the Trustee under separate cover. The Clearing Agency Participant should in
turn make the request of the Clearing Agency (or, in the case of a Clearing
Agency Indirect Participant, such Clearing Agency Indirect Participant must
notify the related Clearing Agency Participant of such request, which Clearing
Agency Participant should make the request of the Clearing Agency) in the manner
required under the rules and regulations of the Clearing Agency's APUT System
and provided to the Clearing Agency Participant. Upon receipt of such request,
the Clearing Agency will date and time stamp such request and forward such
request to the Trustee. The Clearing Agency may establish such procedures as it
deems fair and equitable to establish the order of receipt of requests for such
distributions received by it on the same day. Neither the Master Servicer nor
the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of requests for
distributions or withdrawals of such requests by the Clearing Agency, a Clearing
Agency Participant or any Clearing Agency Indirect Participant.
The Trustee shall maintain a list of those Clearing Agency Participants
representing the appropriate Beneficial Owners of Class A-17 Certificates that
have submitted requests for distributions in reduction of the principal balance
of Certificates of such Class, together with the order of receipt and the
amounts of such requests. The Clearing Agency will honor requests for
distributions in the order of their receipt (subject to the priorities described
in Section 4.07(a) above). The Trustee shall notify the Clearing Agency and the
appropriate Clearing Agency Participants as to which requests should be honored
on each Distribution Date. Requests shall be honored by the Clearing Agency in
accordance with the procedures, and subject to the priorities and limitations,
described in this Section 4.07. The exact procedures to be followed by the
Trustee and the Clearing Agency for purposes of determining such priorities and
limitations will be those established from time to time by the Trustee or the
Clearing Agency, as the case may be. The decisions of the Trustee and the
Clearing Agency concerning such matters will be final and binding on all
affected persons.
Individual Class A-17 Certificates which have been accepted for a
distribution shall be due and payable on the applicable Distribution Date. Such
Certificates shall cease to bear interest after the last day of the month
preceding the month in which such Distribution Date occurs, and notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, no amounts shall be due from Ambac or otherwise
with respect to interest on such Certificates after such last day of the month.
Any Beneficial Owner of a Class A-17 Certificate which has requested a
distribution may withdraw its request by so notifying in writing the Clearing
Agency Participant or Clearing Agency Indirect Participant that maintains such
Beneficial Owner's account. In the event that such account is maintained by a
Clearing Agency Indirect Participant, such Clearing Agency Indirect Participant
must notify the related Clearing Agency Participant which in turn must forward
the withdrawal of such request, on a form required by the Clearing Agency, to
the Trustee. If such notice of withdrawal of a request for distribution has not
been received by the Clearing Agency and forwarded to the Trustee on or before
the Record Date for the next Distribution Date, the previously made request for
distribution will be irrevocable with respect to the making of distributions in
reduction of the Class A Principal Balance of Class A-17 Certificates on such
Distribution Date.
In the event any requests for distributions in reduction of the principal
balance of Class A-17 Certificates are rejected by the Trustee for failure to
comply with the requirements of this Section 4.07, the Trustee shall return such
request to the appropriate Clearing Agency Participant with a copy to the
Clearing Agency with an explanation as to the reason for such rejection.
(d) To the extent, if any, that distributions in reduction of the Class A
Principal Balance of Class A-17 Certificates on a Distribution Date exceed the
outstanding principal balances of Certificates of such Class with respect to
which distribution requests have been received by the related Record Date, as
provided in Section 4.07(a) above, distributions in reduction of the Class A
Principal Balance of the Class A-17 Certificates will be made by mandatory
distributions in reduction thereof. Such mandatory distributions on Individual
Class A-17 Certificates will be made by random lot in accordance with the
then-applicable random lot procedures of the Clearing Agency, the Clearing
Agency Participants and the Clearing Agency Indirect Participants representing
the Beneficial Owners; provided however, that, if after the distribution in
reduction of the Class A Principal Balance of the Class A-17 Certificates on the
next succeeding Distribution Date on which mandatory distributions are to be
made, the principal balance of Class A-17 Certificates would not be reduced to
zero, the Individual Class A-17 Certificates to which such distributions will be
applied shall be selected by the Clearing Agency from those Class A-17
Certificates not otherwise receiving distributions in reduction of the principal
balance on such Distribution Date. The Trustee shall notify the Clearing Agency
of the aggregate amount of the mandatory distribution in reduction of the Class
A Principal Balance of the Class A-17 Certificates to be made on the next
Distribution Date. The Clearing Agency shall then allocate such aggregate amount
among its Clearing Agency Participants on a random lot basis. Each Clearing
Agency Participant and, in turn, each Clearing Agency Indirect Participant will
then select, in accordance with its own random lot procedures, Individual Class
A-17 Certificates from among those held in its accounts to receive mandatory
distributions in reduction of the principal balance of the Certificates of such
Class, such that the total amount so selected is equal to the aggregate amount
of such mandatory distributions allocated to such Clearing Agency Participant by
the Clearing Agency and to such Clearing Agency Indirect Participant by its
related Clearing Agency Participant, as the case may be. Clearing Agency
Participants and Clearing Agency Indirect Participants which hold Class A-17
Certificates selected for mandatory distributions in reduction of the principal
balances are required to provide notice of such mandatory distributions to the
affected Beneficial Owners. The Master Servicer agrees to notify the Trustee of
the amount of distributions in reduction of the principal balances of Class A-17
Certificates to be made on each Distribution Date in a timely manner such that
the Trustee may fulfill its obligations pursuant to the Letter of
Representations dated the Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date
among the Seller, the Trustee and the Clearing Agency.
(e) On the Closing Date, the Rounding Account shall be established with the
Trustee and the Seller shall cause to be initially deposited with the Trustee a
$999.99 deposit for the Rounding Account. On each Distribution Date on which a
distribution is made in reduction of the principal balance of the Class A-17
Certificates, funds on deposit in the Rounding Account shall be available to be
applied to round upward to an integral multiple of $1,000 the aggregate
distribution in reduction of the Class A Principal Balance to be made on the
Class A-17 Certificates. Rounding of such distribution on the Class A-17
Certificates shall be accomplished, on the first such Distribution Date, by
withdrawing from the Rounding Account the amount of funds, if any, needed to
round the amount otherwise available for such distribution in reduction of the
principal balance of the Class A-17 Certificates upward to the next integral
multiple of $1,000. On each succeeding Distribution Date on which distributions
in reduction of the principal balance of the Class A-17 Certificates are to be
made, the aggregate amount of such distributions allocable to the Class A-17
Certificates shall be applied first to repay any funds withdrawn from the
Rounding Account on the prior Distribution Date for which funds were withdrawn
from such account, and then the remainder of such allocable amount, if any,
shall be similarly rounded upward and applied as distributions in reduction of
the principal balance of the Class A-17 Certificates; this process shall
continue on succeeding Distribution Dates until the Class A Principal Balance of
the Class A-17 Certificates has been reduced to zero. The funds in the Rounding
Account shall be held in a non-interest bearing account and shall not be
reinvested.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on the Distribution Date
on which distributions in reduction of the Class A Principal Balance of the
Class A-17 Certificates will reduce the Class A Principal Balance thereof to
zero or in the event that distributions in reduction of the Class A Principal
Balance of the Class A-17 Certificates are made in accordance with the
provisions set forth in Section 4.07(f), an amount equal to the difference
between $1,000 and the sum then held in the Rounding Account shall be paid from
the Pool Distribution Amount to the Rounding Account. Any funds then on deposit
in such Rounding Account shall be distributed to the Holder of the Class A-LR
Certificate.
(f) Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, on each
Distribution Date on and after the earlier to occur of (i) the Cross-Over Date
or (ii) Ambac's failure to make a payment with respect to a Class A-17
Distribution Deficiency, distributions in reduction of the Principal Balance of
the Class A-17 Certificates (including amounts paid in respect of such losses
under the Policy) will be made on a pro rata basis among the Holders of the
Class A-17 Certificates and will not be made in integral multiples of $1,000 or
pursuant to requested distributions or mandatory distributions by random lot.
(g) In the event that the pro rata distributions described in section
4.07(f) cannot be made through the facilities of the Clearing Agency, the Class
A-17 Certificates will be withdrawn from the facilities of the Clearing Agency
and Definitive Certificates will be issued to replace such withdrawn Book-Entry
Certificates pursuant to Section 5.07. An amendment to this Agreement, which may
be approved without the consent of any Certificateholders, shall establish
procedures relating to the manner in which pro rata distributions in reduction
of the principal balances of the Class A-17 Certificates are to be made;
provided that such procedures shall be consistent, to the extent practicable and
customary for certificates similar to the Class A-17 Certificates, with the
provisions of this Section 4.07.
Section 4.08 Policy Matters.
(a) If, on the second Business Day before any Distribution Date, the
Trustee determines that there will be a Class A-17 Distribution Deficiency for
such Distribution Date, the Trustee shall determine the amount of such Class
A-17 Distribution Deficiency and shall give notice to Ambac by telephone or
telecopy of the amount of such deficiency confirmed in writing by the Notice of
Nonpayment by 12:00 noon, New York City time on such second Business Day.
(b) At the time of the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall establish a separate special purpose trust account in the name of
the Trustee for the benefit of Holders of the Class A-17 Certificates referred
to herein as the "Policy Payments Account" over which the Trustee shall have
exclusive control and sole right of withdrawal. The Trustee shall deposit any
amounts paid under the Policy into the Policy Payments Account and distribute
such amounts only for purposes of payment to Holders of the Class A-17
Certificates of the Class A-17 Distribution Deficiency for which a claim was
made and such amounts may not be applied to satisfy any costs, expenses or
liabilities of the Trustee or the Trust Estate. Amounts paid under the Policy
shall be disbursed by the Trustee to Holders of the Class A-17 Certificates in
the same manner as distributions in reduction of the principal balance of and
interest on the Certificates of such Class are made under Section 4.01(e). It
shall not be necessary for such payments of the Class A-17 Distribution
Deficiency to be made by checks or wire transfers separate from the check or
wire transfer used to pay distributions in reduction of the principal balance of
and interest on the Class A-17 Certificates with funds available to make such
distributions. However, the amount of any distribution to be paid from funds
transferred from the Policy Payments Account shall be noted as provided in (c)
below and in the statement to be furnished to Holders of the Class A-17
Certificates and Ambac pursuant to Section 4.04. Funds held in the Policy
Payments Account shall not be invested by the Trustee.
On any Distribution Date with respect to which a claim has been made under
the Policy, the amount of any funds received by the Trustee as a result of the
claim under the Policy to the extent necessary to make distributions on the
Class A-17 Certificates equal to the Class A-17 Distribution Deficiency on such
Distribution Date shall be withdrawn from the Policy Payments Account and
applied by the Trustee to the payment in full of the Class A-17 Distribution
Deficiency. Any funds deposited into the Policy Payments Account in respect of
the Class A-17 Certificates that are remaining therein on the first Business Day
following a Distribution Date after the Class A-17 Distribution Deficiency has
been made to the Certificateholders of such Class shall be remitted in
immediately available funds to Ambac, pursuant to the instructions of Ambac, by
the end of such Business Day.
(c) The Trustee shall keep a complete and accurate record of the Class A-17
Interest Loss Amount, the Class A-17 Principal Loss Amount and any Non-Supported
Interest Shortfall allocated to the Class A-17 Certificates once the Reserve
Fund has been depleted, paid from moneys received under the Policy. Ambac shall
have the right to inspect such records at reasonable times upon one Business
Day's prior notice to the Trustee.
(d) In the event that the Trustee has received a certified copy of an order
of the appropriate court that any distributions in reduction of the principal
balance of or interest on a Class A-17 Certificate has been avoided in whole or
in part as a preference payment under applicable bankruptcy law, the Trustee
shall so notify Ambac and shall comply with the provisions of the applicable
Policy to obtain payment by Ambac of such avoided distribution, and shall, at
the time it provides notice to Ambac, notify, by mail to Holders of the
Certificates of such Class that, in the event that any Holder's distribution is
so recovered, such Holder will be entitled to payment pursuant to the terms of
the applicable Policy, a copy of which shall be made available by the Trustee
and the Trustee shall furnish to Ambac its records evidencing the distributions
in reduction of the principal balance of and interest (including any
Non-Supported Interest Shortfall described in Section 4.08(c)) on the Class A-17
Certificates, if any, which have been made by the Trustee and subsequently
recovered from Holders, and the dates on which such distributions were made.
Such payment under the applicable Policy shall be disbursed to the receiver,
conservator, debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy named in the order
and not to the Trustee or any Class A-17 Certificateholder directly (unless such
Certificateholder has previously paid such amount to the receiver, conservator,
debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy named in the order, in which case
such payment shall be disbursed to the Trustee for distribution to such
Certificateholder upon proof of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Ambac).
(e) The Trustee shall promptly notify Ambac of any proceeding or the
institution of any action seeking the avoidance as a preferential transfer under
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law (a "Preference
Claim") of any distribution made with respect to the Class A-17 Certificates as
to which it has actual knowledge. Each Holder of a Class A-17 Certificate, by
its purchase of such Certificates and the Trustee hereby agree that Ambac (so
long as no Ambac Default exists) may at any time during the continuation of any
proceeding relating to a Preference Claim direct all matters relating to such
Preference Claim, including, without limitation, (i) the direction of any appeal
of any order relating to any Preference Claim and (ii) the posting of any
surety, supersedeas or performance bond pending any such appeal. In addition and
without limitation of the foregoing, Ambac shall be subrogated to the rights of
the Trustee and each Holder in the conduct of any Preference Claim, including,
without limitation, all rights of any party to an adversary proceeding or action
with respect to any court order issued in connection with any such Preference
Claim.
(f) The Trustee acknowledges, and each Holder of a Class A-17 Certificate
by its acceptance of such Certificate agrees, that without any further action on
the part of Ambac, Ambac shall be subrogated to all of the rights to amounts
distributable to such Certificateholders in respect of Class A Unpaid Interest
Shortfalls, Non-Supported Interest Shortfalls allocated to such Certificates and
recoveries, if any, with respect to the Class A-17 Principal Loss Amounts with
respect to amounts paid under the Policy. The Class A-17 Certificateholders by
acceptance of such Certificates assign their rights as Holders of such
Certificates to Ambac to the extent of Ambac's interest with respect to amounts
paid.
(g) The Master Servicer shall designate an Ambac Contact Person who shall
be available to Ambac to provide reasonable access to information regarding the
Mortgage Loans. The initial Ambac Contact Person is appointed in Section 11.27.
(h) The Trustee shall surrender the Policy to Ambac for cancellation upon
the expiration of the term of the Policy as provided in the Policy.
(i) The Trustee upon receipt from the Master Servicer shall send to Ambac
the report prepared pursuant to Section 3.05 and the statements prepared
pursuant to Section 4.04.
Section 4.09. Calculation of Amounts; Binding Effect of Interpretations and
Actions of Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer will compute the amount of all distributions to be made
on the Certificates and all losses to be allocated to the Certificates. In the
event that the Master Servicer concludes that any ambiguity or uncertainty
exists in any provisions of this Agreement relating to distributions to be made
on the Certificates or the allocation of losses to the Certificates, the
interpretation of such provisions and any actions taken by the Master Servicer
in good faith to implement such interpretation shall be binding upon
Certificateholders.
ARTICLE V
THE CERTIFICATES
Section 5.01. The Certificates.
(a) The Class A and Class B Certificates shall be issued only in minimum
Denominations of a Single Certificate and, except for the Class A-3, Class A-18,
Class A-PO, Class A-R and Class A-LR Certificates, integral multiples of $1,000
in excess thereof (except, if necessary, for one Certificate of each Class
(other than the Class A-3, Class A-18, Class A-PO, Class A-R and Class A-LR
Certificates) that evidences one Single Certificate plus such additional
principal portion or notional amount as is required in order for all
Certificates of such Class to equal the aggregate Original Principal Balance or
notional amount of such Class, as the case may be), and shall be substantially
in the respective forms set forth as Exhibits X-0, X-0, X-0, X-0, X-0, X-0, A-7,
X-0, X-0, X-00, X-00, X-00, X-00, X-00, X-00, X-00, X-00, X-00, X-00, X-00,
A-PO, A-R, A-LR, X-0, X-0, X-0, X-0, X-0, X-0, and C (reverse side of
Certificates) hereto. On original issue the Certificates shall be executed and
delivered by the Trustee to or upon the order of the Seller upon receipt by the
Trustee or the Custodian of the documents specified in Section 2.01. The
aggregate principal portion (or notional amount) evidenced by the Class A and
Class B Certificates shall be the sum of the amounts specifically set forth in
the respective Certificates. The Certificates shall be executed by manual or
facsimile signature on behalf of the Trustee by any Responsible Officer thereof.
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 manually countersigned by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, or unless
there appears on such Certificate a certificate of authentication executed by
the Authenticating Agent by manual signature, and such countersignature or
certificate upon a Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only
evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.
Until such time as Definitive Certificates are issued pursuant to Section
5.07, each Book-Entry Certificate shall bear the following legend:
"Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized representative of
[the Clearing Agency] to the Trustee or its agent for registration of transfer,
exchange or payment, and any certificate issued is registered in the name of
[the Clearing Agency] or such other name as requested by an authorized
representative of [the Clearing Agency] and any payment is made to [the Clearing
Agency], any transfer, pledge or other use hereof for value or otherwise by or
to any person is wrongful since the registered owner hereof, [the Clearing
Agency], has an interest herein."
(b) Upon original issuance, the Book-Entry Certificates shall be issued in
the form of one or more typewritten certificates, to be delivered to The
Depository Trust Company, the initial Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of, the
Seller. Such Certificates shall initially be registered in the Certificate
Register in the name of the nominee of the initial Clearing Agency, and no
Beneficial Owner will receive a definitive certificate representing such
Beneficial Owner's interest in the Book-Entry Certificates, except as provided
in Section 5.07. Unless and until definitive, fully registered certificates
("Definitive Certificates") have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to
Section 5.07:
(i) the provisions of this Section 5.01(b) shall be in full force and
effect;
(ii) the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Registrar and
the Trustee may deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes (including
the making of distributions on the Book-Entry Certificates and the taking
of actions by the Holders of Book-Entry Certificates) as the authorized
representative of the Beneficial Owners;
(iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 5.01(b)
conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of
this Section 5.01(b) shall control;
(iv) the rights of Beneficial Owners shall be exercised only through
the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law, the
rules, regulations and procedures of the Clearing Agency and agreements
between such Beneficial Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing
Agency Participants, and all references in this Agreement to actions by
Certificateholders shall, with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates,
refer to actions taken by the Clearing Agency upon instructions from the
Clearing Agency Participants, and all references in this Agreement to
distributions, notices, reports and statements to Certificateholders shall,
with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates, refer to distributions,
notices, reports and statements to the Clearing Agency or its nominee, as
registered holder of the Book-Entry Certificates, as the case may be, for
distribution to Beneficial Owners in accordance with the procedures of the
Clearing Agency; and
(v) the initial Clearing Agency will make book-entry transfers among
the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit distributions of
principal and interest on the Certificates to the Clearing Agency
Participants, for distribution by such Clearing Agency Participants to the
Beneficial Owners or their nominees.
For purposes of any provision of this Agreement requiring or permitting
actions with the consent of, or at the direction of, Holders of Book-Entry
Certificates evidencing specified Voting Interests, such direction or consent
shall be given by Beneficial Owners having the requisite Voting Interests,
acting through the Clearing Agency.
Unless and until Definitive Certificates have been issued to Beneficial
Owners pursuant to Section 5.07, copies of the reports or statements referred to
in Section 4.04 shall be available to Beneficial Owners upon written request to
the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office.
Section 5.02. Registration of Certificates.
(a) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at one of the offices or agencies to
be maintained in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.06 a Certificate
Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe,
the Trustee shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers
and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. The Trustee shall act as, or
shall appoint, a Certificate Registrar for the purpose of registering
Certificates and transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided.
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at any
office or agency maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 5.06 (and
subject to the provisions of this Section 5.02) the Trustee shall execute, and
shall date, authenticate (or cause the Authenticating Agent to authenticate) and
deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more
new Certificates of a like aggregate principal portion or Percentage Interest
and of the same Class.
At the option of the Certificateholders, Certificates may be exchanged for
other Certificates of authorized Denominations of a like aggregate principal
portion or Percentage Interest and of the same Class upon surrender of the
Certificates to be exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any
Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute, and
shall date, authenticate (or cause the Authenticating Agent to 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 Certificate Registrar or the Trustee) be
duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof
or his attorney duly authorized in writing.
No service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange of
Certificates, but the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed
in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.
All Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be canceled by
the Certificate Registrar, the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent in accordance
with their standard procedures.
(b) No transfer of a Class A-PO, Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6
Certificate shall be made unless the registration requirements of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable State securities laws are complied
with, or such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements under said
Act and laws. In the event that a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an
exemption from said Act or laws, (i) unless such transfer is made in reliance on
Rule 144A, the Trustee or the Seller may, if such transfer is to be made within
three years after the later of (i) the date of the initial sale of Certificates
or (ii) the last date on which the Seller or any affiliate thereof was a Holder
of the Certificates proposed to be transferred, require a Class A-PO, Class B-4,
Class B-5 or Class B-6 Certificateholder to deliver a written Opinion of Counsel
acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the
Seller, to the effect that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption,
describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from said Act and
laws or is being made pursuant to said Act and laws, which Opinion of Counsel
shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Seller or the Master Servicer, and
(ii) the Trustee shall require the transferee (other than an affiliate of the
Seller on the Closing Date) to execute an investment letter in the form of
Exhibit J hereto certifying to the Seller and the Trustee the facts surrounding
such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of the Trustee,
the Seller or the Master Servicer. The Holder of a Class A-PO, Class B-4, Class
B-5 or Class B-6 Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does
hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Seller, the Master Servicer and any
Paying Agent acting on behalf of the Trustee 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. Neither the Seller nor the Trustee is under an
obligation to register the Class A-PO, Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6
Certificates under said Act or any other securities law.
(c) No transfer of a Class A-PO or Class B Certificate shall be made (other
than the transfer of the Class A-PO Certificates to an affiliate of the Seller
on the Closing Date) unless the Trustee shall have received (i) a representation
letter from the transferee in the form of Exhibit J hereto, in the case of a
Class A-PO, Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6 Certificate, or in the form of
Exhibit K hereto, in the case of a Class B-1, Class B-2 or Class B-3
Certificate, to the effect that either (a) such transferee is not an employee
benefit plan or other retirement arrangement subject to Title I of ERISA or Code
Section 4975, or a governmental plan, as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA,
subject to any federal, state or local law ("Similar Law") which is to a
material extent similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code
(collectively, a "Plan") and is not a person acting on behalf of or using the
assets of any such Plan, which representation letter shall not be an expense of
the Trustee, the Seller or the Master Servicer or (b) with respect to the Class
B Certificates only, if such transferee is an insurance company, (A) the source
of funds used to purchase the Class B Certificate is an "insurance company
general account" (as such term is defined in Section V(e) of Prohibited
Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 ("PTE 95-60"), 60 Fed. Reg. 35925 (July 12,
1995)), (B) there is no Plan with respect to which the amount of such general
account's reserves and liabilities for the contract(s) held by or on behalf of
such Plan and all other Plans maintained by the same employer (or affiliate
thereof as defined in Section V(a)(1) of PTE 95-60) or by the same employee
organization exceeds 10% of the total of all reserves and liabilities of such
general account (as such amounts are determined under Section I(a) of PTE 95-60)
at the date of acquisition and (C) the purchase and holding of such Class B
Certificates are covered by Sections I and III of PTE 95-60 or (ii) in the case
of any such Class A-PO or Class B Certificate presented for registration in the
name of a Plan, or a trustee of any such Plan, (A) an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to the Trustee and the Seller to the effect that the purchase or
holding of such Class A-PO or Class B Certificate will not result in the assets
of the Trust Estate being deemed to be "plan assets" and subject to the
prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA, the Code or Similar Law and will not
subject the Trustee, the Seller or the Master Servicer to any obligation in
addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall
not be an expense of the Trustee, the Seller or the Master Servicer and (B) such
other opinions of counsel, officer's certificates and agreements as the Seller
or the Master Servicer may require in connection with such transfer, which
opinions of counsel, officers' certificates and agreements shall not be an
expense of the Trustee, the Seller or the Master Servicer. The Class A-PO and
Class B Certificates shall bear a legend referring to the foregoing restrictions
contained in this paragraph.
(d) No legal or beneficial interest in all or any portion of the Class A-R
or Class A-LR Certificate may be transferred directly or indirectly to a
"disqualified organization" within the meaning of Code Section 860E(e)(5) or an
agent of a disqualified organization (including a broker, nominee, or
middleman), to a Plan or a Person acting on behalf of or investing the assets of
a Plan (such Plan or Person, an "ERISA Prohibited Holder") or to an individual,
corporation, partnership or other person unless such transferee (i) is not a
Non-U.S. Person or (ii) is a Non-U.S. Person that holds the Class A-R or Class
A-LR Certificate in connection with the conduct of a trade or business within
the United States and has furnished the transferor and the Trustee with an
effective Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 or (iii) is a Non-U.S. Person that
has delivered to both the transferor and the Trustee an opinion of a nationally
recognized tax counsel to the effect that the transfer of the Class A-R or Class
A-LR Certificate to it is in accordance with the requirements of the Code and
the regulations promulgated thereunder and that such transfer of the Class A-R
or Class A-LR Certificate will not be disregarded for federal income tax
purposes (any such person who is not covered by clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above
being referred to herein as a "Non-permitted Foreign Holder"), and any such
purported transfer shall be void and have no effect. The Trustee shall not
execute, and shall not authenticate (or cause the Authenticating Agent to
authenticate) and deliver, a new Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate in
connection with any such transfer to a disqualified organization or agent
thereof (including a broker, nominee or middleman), an ERISA Prohibited Holder
or a Non-permitted Foreign Holder, and neither the Certificate Registrar nor the
Trustee shall accept a surrender for transfer or registration of transfer, or
register the transfer of, the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate, unless the
transferor shall have provided to the Trustee an affidavit, substantially in the
form attached as Exhibit H hereto, signed by the transferee, to the effect that
the transferee is not such a disqualified organization, an agent (including a
broker, nominee, or middleman) for any entity as to which the transferee has not
received a substantially similar affidavit, an ERISA Prohibited Holder or a
Non-permitted Foreign Holder, which affidavit shall contain the consent of the
transferee to any such amendments of this Agreement as may be required to
further effectuate the foregoing restrictions on transfer of the Class A-R or
Class A-LR Certificate to disqualified organizations, ERISA Prohibited Holders
or Non-permitted Foreign Holders. Such affidavit shall also contain the
statement of the transferee that (i) the transferee has historically paid its
debts as they have come due and intends to do so in the future, (ii) the
transferee understands that it may incur liabilities in excess of cash flows
generated by the residual interest, (iii) the transferee intends to pay taxes
associated with holding the residual interest as they become due and (iv) the
transferee will not transfer the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate to any
Person who does not provide an affidavit substantially in the form attached as
Exhibit H hereto.
The affidavit described in the preceding paragraph, if not executed in
connection with the initial issuance of the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate,
shall be accompanied by a written statement in the form attached as Exhibit I
hereto, signed by the transferor, to the effect that as of the time of the
transfer, the transferor has no actual knowledge that the transferee is a
disqualified organization, ERISA Prohibited Holder or Non-permitted Foreign
Holder, and has no knowledge or reason to know that the statements made by the
transferee with respect to clauses (i) and (iii) of the last sentence of the
preceding paragraph are not true. The Class A-R and Class A-LR Certificates
shall bear a legend referring to the foregoing restrictions contained in this
paragraph and the preceding paragraph.
Upon notice to the Master Servicer that any legal or beneficial interest in
any portion of the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate has been transferred,
directly or indirectly, to a disqualified organization or agent thereof
(including a broker, nominee, or middleman) in contravention of the foregoing
restrictions, (i) such transferee shall be deemed to hold the Class A-R or Class
A-LR Certificate in constructive trust for the last transferor who was not a
disqualified organization or agent thereof, and such transferor shall be
restored as the owner of such Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate as completely
as if such transfer had never occurred, provided that the Master Servicer may,
but is not required to, recover any distributions made to such transferee with
respect to the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate, and (ii) the Master Servicer
agrees to furnish to the Internal Revenue Service and to any transferor of the
Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate or such agent (within 60 days of the request
therefor by the transferor or agent) such information necessary to the
application of Code Section 860E(e) as may be required by the Code, including
but not limited to the present value of the total anticipated excess inclusions
with respect to the Class A-R or Class A-LR Certificate (or portion thereof) for
periods after such transfer. At the election of the Master Servicer, the cost to
the Master Servicer of computing and furnishing such information may be charged
to the transferor or such agent referred to above; however, the Master Servicer
shall in no event be excused from furnishing such information.
Section 5.03. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.
If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee or the
Authenticating Agent, or the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent receives
evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered to the Trustee or the Authenticating
Agent such security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold each of them
harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee or the Authenticating
Agent that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the
Trustee shall execute and authenticate (or cause the Authenticating Agent to
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
principal portion or Percentage Interest and of the same Class. Upon the
issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Trustee or the
Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any
other expense (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee or the
Authenticating Agent) in connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued
pursuant to this Section shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of
ownership in the Trust Estate, 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.
Prior to the due presentation of a Certificate for registration of
transfer, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar and any agent of the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the
Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is
registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving
distributions pursuant to Section 4.01, and for all other purposes whatsoever,
and neither the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate
Registrar nor any agent of the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the
Certificate Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
Section 5.05. Access to List of Certificateholders' Names and Addresses.
(a) If the Trustee is not acting as Certificate Registrar, the Certificate
Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee, within 15 days
after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a request by the Trustee in
writing, a list, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the
names and addresses of the Certificateholders of each Class as of the most
recent Record Date.
(b) If five or more Certificateholders (hereinafter referred to as
"applicants") apply in writing to the Trustee, and such application states that
the applicants desire to communicate with other Certificateholders with respect
to their rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and is
accompanied by a copy of the communication which such applicants propose to
transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five Business Days following the
receipt of such application, afford such applicants access during normal
business hours to the most recent list of Certificateholders held by the
Trustee. If such a list is as of the date more than 90 days prior to the date of
receipt of such applicants' request and the Trustee is not the Certificate
Registrar, the Trustee shall promptly request from the Certificate Registrar a
current list as provided in paragraph (a) hereof, and shall afford such
applicants access to such list promptly upon receipt.
(c) Every Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agrees
with the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee
that neither the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Certificate Registrar nor the
Trustee shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such
information as to the names, addresses and Percentage Interests of the
Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from which such
information was delivered.
Section 5.06. Maintenance of Office or Agency.
The Trustee will maintain, at its expense, an office or agency where
Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and
where notices and demands to or upon the Certificate Registrar in respect of the
Certificates and this Agreement may be served. The Trustee initially designates
the Corporate Trust Office and the principal corporate trust office of the
Authenticating Agent, if any, as its offices and agencies for said purposes.
Section 5.07. Definitive Certificates.
If (i)(A) the Master Servicer advises the Trustee in writing that the
Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able properly to discharge its
responsibilities as depository with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates, and
(B) the Master Servicer is unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the
Master Servicer, at its option, advises the Trustee in writing that it elects to
terminate the book-entry system through the Clearing Agency, (iii) after the
occurrence of dismissal or resignation of the Master Servicer, Beneficial Owners
representing aggregate Voting Interests of not less than 51% of the aggregate
Voting Interests of each outstanding Class of Book-Entry Certificates advise the
Trustee through the Clearing Agency and Clearing Agency Participants in writing
that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Clearing Agency is no
longer in the best interests of the Beneficial Owners or (iv) upon the
occurrence of the events specified in Section 4.07(g), the Trustee shall notify
the Beneficial Owners, through the Clearing Agency, of the occurrence of any
such event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to Beneficial
Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Trustee by the Clearing Agency
of the Certificates held of record by its nominee, accompanied by reregistration
instructions and directions to execute and authenticate new Certificates from
the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall execute and authenticate Definitive
Certificates for delivery at its Corporate Trust Office. The Master Servicer
shall arrange for, and will bear all costs of, the printing and issuance of such
Definitive Certificates. Neither the Seller, the Master Servicer nor the Trustee
shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions by the Clearing
Agency and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such
instructions.
Section 5.08. Notices to Clearing Agency.
Whenever notice or other communication to the Holders of Book-Entry
Certificates is required under this Agreement, unless and until Definitive
Certificates shall have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section
5.07, the Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified
herein to be given to Holders of Book-Entry Certificates to the Clearing Agency.
ARTICLE VI
THE SELLER AND THE MASTER SERVICER
Section 6.01. Liability of the Seller and the Master Servicer.
The Seller and the Master Servicer shall each be liable in accordance
herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed by this
Agreement and undertaken hereunder by the Seller and the Master Servicer.
Section 6.02. Merger or Consolidation of the Seller or the Master Servicer.
Subject to the following paragraph, the Seller and the Master Servicer each
will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a corporation
under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation, and 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 Seller 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 Seller or Master Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding
to the business of the Seller or Master Servicer, shall be the successor of the
Seller or Master Servicer 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, in the case of
the Master Servicer, any such successor or resulting Person shall be qualified
to service mortgage loans for FNMA or FHLMC.
Section 6.03. Limitation on Liability of the Seller, the Master Servicer and
Others.
Neither the Seller nor the Master Servicer nor any subcontractor nor any of
the partners, directors, officers, employees or agents of any of them shall be
under any liability to the Trust Estate or the Certificateholders and all such
Persons shall be held harmless 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 any such
Person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein or
against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by
reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. The Seller,
the Master Servicer, any subcontractor, and any partner, director, officer,
employee or agent of any of them shall be entitled to indemnification by the
Trust Estate and will be held harmless against any loss, liability or expense
incurred in connection with any legal action relating to this Agreement or the
Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of
willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of his or
its duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of his or its
obligations and duties hereunder. The Seller, the Master Servicer and any of the
directors, officers, employees or agents of either 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. Neither the Seller nor the
Master Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend
any legal action unless such action is related to its respective duties under
this Agreement and which in its opinion does not involve it in any expense or
liability; provided, however, that the Seller or 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 if the Certificateholders
offer to the Seller or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, reasonable
security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be
incurred therein or thereby. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such
action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and
liabilities of the Trust Estate, and the Seller or the Master Servicer shall be
entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of the Certificate Account, and such
amounts shall, on the following Distribution Date or Distribution Dates, be
allocated in reduction of distributions on the Class A and Class B Certificates
in the same manner as Realized Losses are allocated pursuant to Section 4.02(a).
Section 6.04. Resignation of the Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby
imposed on it except upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer
permissible under applicable law or are in material conflict by reason of
applicable law with any other activities carried on by it. Any such
determination permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall be
evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Trustee, a
copy of which shall be delivered, but not addressed, to Ambac. No such
resignation shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor servicer
shall have assumed the Master Servicer's responsibilities, duties, liabilities
and obligations hereunder.
Section 6.05. Compensation to the Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive a monthly fee equal to the
Master Servicing Fee, as compensation for services rendered by the Master
Servicer under this Agreement. The Master Servicer also will be entitled to any
late reporting fees paid by a Servicer pursuant to its Servicing Agreement and
any investment income on funds on deposit in the Certificate Account as
additional compensation.
Section 6.06. Assignment or Delegation of Duties by Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall not assign or transfer any of its rights,
benefits or privileges under this Agreement to any other Person, or delegate to
or subcontract with, or authorize or appoint any other Person to perform any of
the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by the Master Servicer
without the prior written consent of the Trustee, and any agreement, instrument
or act purporting to effect any such assignment, transfer, delegation or
appointment shall be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer
shall have the right without the prior written consent of the Trustee (i) to
assign its rights and delegate its duties and obligations hereunder; provided,
however, that (a) the purchaser or transferee accepting such assignment or
delegation is qualified to service mortgage loans for FNMA or FHLMC, is
satisfactory to the Trustee, in the exercise of its reasonable judgment, and
executes and delivers to the Trustee an agreement, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, which contains an assumption by such
purchaser or transferee of the due and punctual performance and observance of
each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by the Master Servicer
hereunder from and after the date of such agreement; and (b) each applicable
Rating Agency's rating of any Certificates in effect immediately prior to such
assignment, sale or transfer is not reasonably likely to be qualified,
downgraded or withdrawn as a result of such assignment, sale or transfer and the
Certificates are not reasonably likely to be placed on credit review status by
any such Rating Agency (without, in the case of the Class A-17 Certificates,
giving effect to the guaranty provided by Ambac); and (ii) to delegate to,
subcontract with, authorize, or appoint an affiliate of the Master Servicer to
perform and carry out any duties, covenants or obligations to be performed and
carried out by the Master Servicer under this Agreement and hereby agrees so to
delegate, subcontract, authorize or appoint to an affiliate of the Master
Servicer any duties, covenants or obligations to be performed and carried out by
the Master Servicer to the extent that such duties, covenants or obligations are
to be performed in any state or states in which the Master Servicer is not
authorized to do business as a foreign corporation but in which the affiliate is
so authorized. In no case, however, shall any permitted assignment and
delegation relieve the Master Servicer of any liability to the Trustee or the
Seller under this Agreement, incurred by it prior to the time that the
conditions contained in clause (i) above are met.
Section 6.07. Indemnification of Trustee and Seller by Master Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and the
Seller and any director, officer or agent thereof against any loss, liability or
expense, including reasonable attorney's fees, arising out of, in connection
with or incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in
the performance of duties of the Master Servicer under this Agreement or by
reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.
Any payment pursuant to this Section made by the Master Servicer to the Trustee
or the Seller shall be from such entity's own funds, without reimbursement
therefor. The provisions of this Section 6.07 shall survive the termination of
this Agreement.
ARTICLE VII
DEFAULT
Section 7.01. Events of Default.
In case one or more of the following Events of Default by the Master
Servicer shall occur and be continuing, that is to say:
(i) any failure by the Master Servicer (a) to remit any funds to the
Paying Agent as required by Section 4.03 or (b) to distribute or cause to
be distributed to Certificateholders any payment required to be made by the
Master Servicer under the terms of this Agreement which, in either case,
continues unremedied for a period of three business days 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 Trustee or to
the Master Servicer and the Trustee by the holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 25% of the aggregate Voting
Interest represented by all Certificates; or
(ii) any failure on the part of the Master Servicer duly to observe or
perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on
the part of the Master Servicer in the Certificates or in this Agreement
which continues unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date on which
written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall
have been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee, or to the Master
Servicer and the Trustee by the holders of Certificates evidencing in the
aggregate not less than 25% of the aggregate Voting Interest represented by
all Certificates; or
(iii) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority
having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a trustee,
conservator, receiver or liquidator in any bankruptcy, insolvency,
readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar
proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall
have been entered against the Master Servicer and such decree or order
shall have remained in force undischarged and unstayed for a period of 60
days; or
(iv) the Master Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a
trustee, conservator, receiver or liquidator or liquidating committee in
any bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and
liabilities, voluntary liquidation or similar proceedings of or relating to
the Master Servicer, or of or relating to all or substantially all of its
property; or
(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, bankruptcy or reorganization statute, make an
assignment for the benefit of its creditors or voluntarily suspend payment
of its obligations;
(vi) the Master Servicer shall be dissolved, or shall dispose of all
or substantially all of its assets; or consolidate with or merge into
another entity or shall permit another entity to consolidate or merge into
it, such that the resulting entity does not meet the criteria for a
successor servicer, as specified in Section 6.02 hereof; or
(vii) the Master Servicer and any subservicer appointed by it becomes
ineligible to service for both FNMA and FHMLC, which ineligibility
continues unremedied for a period of 90 days.
then, and in each and every such case, subject to applicable law, so long as an
Event of Default shall not have been remedied, either the Trustee or the holders
of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66 2/3% of the
aggregate Voting Interest represented by all Certificates, by notice in writing
to the Master Servicer (and to the Trustee if given by the Certificateholders)
may terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under
this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans, but without prejudice to any
rights which the Master Servicer may have to the aggregate Master Servicing Fees
due prior to the date of transfer of the Master Servicer's responsibilities
hereunder, reimbursement of expenses to the extent permitted by this Agreement,
Periodic Advances and other advances of its own funds. Upon 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 or the
Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant
to and under this Section, subject to the provisions of Section 7.05; and,
without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute
and deliver, on behalf of the Master Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise,
any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other
acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of
termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of
the Mortgage Loans and related documents or otherwise. The Master Servicer
agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master
Servicer's responsibilities and rights hereunder and shall promptly provide the
Trustee all documents and records reasonably requested by it to enable it to
assume the Master Servicer's functions hereunder and shall promptly also
transfer to the Trustee all amounts which then have been or should have been
deposited in the Certificate Account by the Master Servicer or which are
thereafter received by the Master Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
Section 7.02. Other Remedies of Trustee.
During the continuance of any Event of Default, so long as such Event of
Default shall not have been remedied, the Trustee, in addition to the rights
specified in Section 7.01, shall have the right, in its own name as trustee of
an express trust, to take all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in
equity or by statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect the
interests, and enforce the rights and remedies, of the Certificateholders
(including the institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative and
other proceedings and the filing of proofs of claim and debt in connection
therewith). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy
provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and each
and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy and no
delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right or
remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default.
Section 7.03. Directions by Certificateholders and
Duties of Trustee During Event of Default.
During the continuance of any Event of Default, Holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 25% of the aggregate Voting Interest
represented by all Certificates may direct the time, method and place of
conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising
any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Agreement; provided,
however, that the Trustee shall be under no obligation to pursue any such
remedy, or to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it by this
agreement (including, without limitation, (i) the conducting or defending of any
administrative action or litigation hereunder or in relation hereto and (ii) the
terminating of the Master Servicer from its rights and duties as servicer
hereunder) at the request, order or direction of any of the Certificateholders,
unless such Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable
security or indemnity against the cost, expenses and liabilities which may be
incurred therein or thereby and, provided further, that, subject to the
provisions of Section 8.01, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to
follow any such direction if the Trustee, in accordance with an Opinion of
Counsel, determines that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully
be taken or if the Trustee in good faith determines that the action or
proceeding so directed would involve it in personal liability or be unjustly
prejudicial to the nonassenting Certificateholders.
Section 7.04. Action upon Certain Failures of the
Master Servicer and upon Event of Default.
In the event that the Trustee shall have knowledge of any failure of the
Master Servicer specified in Section 7.01(i) or (ii) which would become an Event
of Default upon the Master Servicer's failure to remedy the same after notice,
the Trustee may, but need not if the Trustee deems it not in the
Certificateholders' best interest, give notice thereof to the Master Servicer.
For all purposes of this Agreement, in the absence of actual knowledge by a
corporate trust officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have
knowledge of any failure of the Master Servicer as specified in Section 7.01(i)
and (ii) or any Event of Default unless notified thereof in writing by the
Master Servicer or by a Certificateholder.
Section 7.05. Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
When the Master Servicer receives notice of termination pursuant to Section
7.01 or the Trustee receives the resignation of the Master Servicer evidenced by
an Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section 6.04, 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 have the rights and powers and be subject to all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Master
Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof and in its capacity as such
successor shall have the same limitation of liability herein granted to the
Master Servicer. In the event that the Trustee is succeeding to the Master
Servicer as the Master Servicer, as compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be
entitled to receive monthly such portion of the Master Servicing Fee, together
with such other servicing compensation as is agreed to at such time by the
Trustee and the Master Servicer, but in no event more than 25% thereof until the
date of final cessation of the Master Servicer's servicing activities hereunder.
Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act,
or shall, if it is unable to so act or to obtain a qualifying bid as described
below, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any
housing and home finance institution, bank or mortgage servicing institution
having a net worth of not less than $10,000,000 and meeting such other standards
for a successor servicer as are set forth herein, as the successor to the Master
Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities,
duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that
until such a successor master servicer is appointed and has assumed the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder, the
Trustee shall continue as the successor to the Master Servicer as provided
above. The compensation of any successor master servicer so appointed shall not
exceed the compensation specified in Section 6.05 hereof. In the event the
Trustee is required to solicit bids as provided above, 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 preceding sentence for the purchase of the
master servicing functions. Such public announcement shall specify that the
successor master servicer shall be entitled to the full amount of the Master
Servicing Fee as compensation together with the other servicing compensation in
the form of late reporting fees or otherwise as provided in Section 6.05. Within
30 days after any such public announcement, the Trustee shall negotiate and
effect the sale, transfer and assignment of the master servicing rights and
responsibilities hereunder to the qualified party submitting the highest
qualifying bid. The Trustee shall deduct all costs and expenses of any public
announcement and of any sale, transfer and assignment of the servicing rights
and responsibilities hereunder from any sum received by the Trustee from the
successor to the Master Servicer in respect of such sale, transfer and
assignment. After such deductions, the remainder of such sum shall be paid by
the Trustee to the Master Servicer at the time of such sale, transfer and
assignment to the Master Servicer's successor. The Trustee and such successor
shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to
effectuate any such succession. The Master Servicer agrees to cooperate with the
Trustee and any successor servicer in effecting the termination of the Master
Servicer's servicing responsibilities and rights hereunder and shall promptly
provide the Trustee or such successor master servicer, as applicable, all
documents and records reasonably requested by it to enable it to assume the
Master Servicer's function hereunder and shall promptly also transfer to the
Trustee or such successor master servicer, as applicable, all amounts which then
have been or should have been deposited in the Certificate Account by the Master
Servicer or which are thereafter received by the Master Servicer with respect to
the Mortgage Loans. Neither the Trustee nor any other successor master servicer
shall be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of any failure to make, or
any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof caused by
(i) the failure of the Master Servicer to deliver, or any delay in delivering,
cash, documents or records to it, or (ii) restrictions imposed by any regulatory
authority having jurisdiction over the Master Servicer. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in Section 7.01 above or this Section 7.05, the Master
Servicer shall retain all of its rights and responsibilities hereunder, and no
successor (including the Trustee) shall succeed thereto, if the assumption
thereof by such successor would cause the rating assigned to any Certificates to
be revoked, downgraded or placed on credit review status (other than for
possible upgrading) (without, in the case of the Class A-17 Certificates, giving
effect to the guaranty provided by Ambac) by either Rating Agency and the
retention thereof by the Master Servicer would avert such revocation,
downgrading or review.
Section 7.06. Notification to Certificateholders.
Upon any termination of the Master Servicer or appointment of a successor
master servicer, in each case as provided herein, the Trustee shall give prompt
written notice thereof to Ambac and Certificateholders at their respective
addresses appearing in the Certificate Register. The Trustee shall also, within
45 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default known to the Trustee, give
written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective addresses
appearing in the Certificate Register, unless such Event of Default shall have
been cured or waived within said 45 day period.
ARTICLE VIII
CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE
Section 8.01. Duties of Trustee.
The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the
curing of all Events of Default which may have occurred, undertakes to perform
such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Agreement. In case an Event of Default has occurred (which has not been cured),
the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Sections 7.01, 7.03, 7.04 and 7.05,
shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and
use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent investor
would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such investor's
own affairs.
The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements,
opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the
Trustee, which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they are in
the form required by this Agreement; provided, however, that the Trustee shall
not be responsible for the accuracy or content of any certificate, statement,
instrument, report, notice or other document furnished by the Master Servicer or
the Servicers pursuant to Articles III, IV and IX.
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 willful misconduct; provided, however, that:
(i) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the
curing of all such Events of Default which may have occurred, the duties
and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express
provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be liable except for
the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set
forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read
into this Agreement against the Trustee and, in the absence of bad faith on
the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth
of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein,
upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee, and conforming
to the requirements of this Agreement;
(ii) 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 holders of Certificates which evidence in
the aggregate not less than 25% of the Voting Interest represented by all
Certificates 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; and
(iii) The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made
in good faith by any of its respective Responsible Officers, unless it
shall be proved that the Trustee or such Responsible Officer, as the case
may be, was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.
None of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall require the
Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial
liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise
of any of its rights or powers if there is reasonable ground for believing that
repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is
not reasonably assured to it.
Section 8.02. Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.
Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
(i) The Trustee may rely and shall be 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 believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or
presented by the proper party or parties;
(ii) The Trustee may consult with counsel, and any 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 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; and
(iv) The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or
attorneys.
Section 8.03. Trustee Not Required to Make Investigation.
Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder and after the
curing of all Events of Default which may have occurred, the Trustee shall not
be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any
resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,
request, consent, order, appraisal, bond, Mortgage, Mortgage Note or other paper
or document (provided the same appears regular on its face), unless requested in
writing to do so by holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less
than 51% of the Voting Interest represented by all Certificates; provided,
however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the
costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such
investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured to the
Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Agreement, the
Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such expense or liability as a
condition to so proceeding. The reasonable expense of every such investigation
shall be paid by the Master Servicer or, if paid by the Trustee or the Trustee,
shall be repaid by the Master Servicer upon demand.
Section 8.04. Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.
The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the
certificate of authentication on the Certificates) shall be taken as the
statements of the Seller, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility as to the
correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representation for the correctness
of the same. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or
sufficiency of this Agreement or of the Certificates or of any Mortgage Loan or
related document. Subject to Section 2.04, the Trustee shall not be accountable
for the use or application by the Seller of any of the Certificates or of the
proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid
to the Master Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans deposited into the
Certificate Account by the Master Servicer or, in its capacity as trustee, for
investment of any such amounts.
Section 8.05. Trustee May Own Certificates.
The Trustee and any agent thereof, in its individual or any other capacity,
may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights it would
have if it were not Trustee or such agent.
Section 8.06. The Master Servicer to Pay Fees and Expenses.
The Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to
time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, reasonable compensation
(which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the
compensation of a trustee of an express trust) for all services rendered by it
in the execution of the trusts hereby created and in the exercise and
performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Trustee and the
Master Servicer will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all
reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by it in
accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement (including the
reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of
all persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement,
or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith.
Section 8.07. Eligibility Requirements.
The Trustee hereunder shall at all times (i) be a corporation or
association having its principal office in a state and city acceptable to the
Seller, organized and doing business under the laws of such 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, or shall
be a member of a bank holding system, the aggregate combined capital and surplus
of which is at least $50,000,000, provided that its separate capital and surplus
shall at all times be at least the amount specified in Section 310(a)(2) of the
Trust Indenture Act of 1939, (ii) be subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authority and (iii) have a credit rating or be otherwise
acceptable to the Rating Agencies such that neither of the Rating Agencies would
reduce their respective then current ratings of the Certificates (or have
provided such security from time to time as is sufficient to avoid such
reduction) as evidenced in writing by each Rating Agency. If such corporation or
association publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or
to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then
for the purposes of this Section 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 condition so published. In
case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, such entity shall resign immediately in the manner
and with the effect specified in Section 8.08.
Section 8.08. Resignation and Removal.
The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trust hereby
created by giving written notice of resignation to the Master Servicer, such
resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor trustee. Upon
receiving such notice of resignation, the Master Servicer shall promptly appoint
a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the resigning entity and one copy to its
successor. If no successor trustee shall have been 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 8.07 and shall fail to resign after written request
for its resignation by the Master Servicer, or if at any time the Trustee shall
become incapable of acting, or an order for relief shall have been entered in
any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding with respect to such entity, or a
receiver of such entity or of its property shall be appointed, or any public
officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of the property or
affairs of the Trustee for the purpose of rehabilitation, conversion or
liquidation, or the Master Servicer shall deem it necessary in order to change
the situs of the Trust Estate for state tax reasons, then the Master Servicer
shall remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument,
in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so
removed and one copy to the successor trustee.
The Holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 51%
of the Voting Interests represented by all Certificates (except that any
Certificate registered in the name of the Seller, the Master Servicer or any
affiliate thereof will not be taken into account in determining whether the
requisite Voting Interests has been obtained) may at any time remove the Trustee
and appoint a successor by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate,
signed by such holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete
set of which instruments shall be delivered to the Master Servicer, one complete
set of which shall be delivered to the entity or entities so removed and one
complete set of which shall be delivered to the successor so appointed.
Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor
pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall become effective upon
acceptance of appointment by the successor as provided in Section 8.09.
Section 8.09. Successor.
Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.08 shall execute,
acknowledge and deliver to the Master Servicer and to its predecessor trustee an
instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation
or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective, and such
successor, without any further act, deed or reconveyance, shall become fully
vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor
hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as trustee herein. The
predecessor trustee shall deliver to its successor all Owner Mortgage Loan Files
and related documents and statements held by it hereunder (other than any Owner
Mortgage Loan Files at the time held by a Custodian, which Custodian shall
become the agent of any successor trustee hereunder), and the Seller, the Master
Servicer and the predecessor entity 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 shall accept appointment as
provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor
shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.07
Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor as provided in this Section,
the Master Servicer 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 Master Servicer fails to mail such notice within
ten days after acceptance of the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall
cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Master Servicer.
Section 8.10. Merger or Consolidation.
Any Person into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which
it may be consolidated, to which it may sell or transfer its corporate trust
business and assets as a whole or substantially as a whole or any Person
resulting from any merger, sale, transfer, conversion or consolidation to which
the Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of such
entity, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided, however, that
(i) such Person shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.07, 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, and (ii)
the Trustee shall deliver an Opinion of Counsel to the Seller and the Master
Servicer to the effect that such merger, consolidation, sale or transfer will
not subject either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to federal,
state or local tax or cause either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC
to fail to qualify as a REMIC, which Opinion of Counsel shall be at the sole
expense of the Trustee.
Section 8.11. Authenticating Agent.
The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent, which shall be authorized
to act on behalf of the Trustee in authenticating Certificates. Wherever
reference is made in this Agreement to the authentication of Certificates by the
Trustee or the Trustee's countersignature, such reference shall be deemed to
include authentication on behalf of the Trustee by the Authenticating Agent and
a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by the
Authenticating Agent. The Authenticating Agent must be acceptable to the Seller
and the Master Servicer and must be a corporation organized and doing business
under the laws of the United States of America or of any state, having a
principal office and place of business in a state and city acceptable to the
Seller and the Master Servicer, having a combined capital and surplus of at
least $15,000,000, authorized under such laws to do a trust business and subject
to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities.
Any corporation into which the Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting
from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Authenticating Agent
shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency business
of the Authenticating Agent, shall be the Authenticating Agent without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee
or the Authenticating Agent.
The Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving at least 30 days'
advance written notice of resignation to the Trustee, the Seller and the Master
Servicer. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of the Authenticating
Agent by giving written notice thereof to the Authenticating Agent, the Seller
and the Master Servicer. Upon receiving a notice of resignation or upon such a
termination, or in case at any time the Authenticating Agent shall cease to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.11, the Trustee
promptly shall appoint a successor Authenticating Agent, which shall be
acceptable to the Master Servicer, and shall give written notice of such
appointment to the Seller, and shall mail notice of such appointment to all
Certificateholders. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its
appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties
and responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if
originally named as Authenticating Agent herein. No successor Authenticating
Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section
8.11.
The Authenticating Agent shall have no responsibility or liability for any
action taken by it as such at the direction of the Trustee. Any reasonable
compensation paid to the Authenticating Agent shall be a reimbursable expense
under Section 8.06.
Section 8.12. Separate Trustees and Co-Trustees.
The Trustee shall have the power from time to time to appoint one or more
persons or corporations to act either as co-trustees jointly with the Trustee,
or as separate trustees, for the purpose of holding title to, foreclosing or
otherwise taking action with respect to any Mortgage Loan outside the state
where the Trustee has its principal place of business, where such separate
trustee or co-trustee is necessary or advisable (or the Trustee is advised by
the Master Servicer that such separate trustee or co-trustee is necessary or
advisable) under the laws of any state in which a Mortgaged Property is located
or for the purpose of otherwise conforming to any legal requirement, restriction
or condition in any state in which a Mortgaged Property is located or in any
state in which any portion of the Trust Estate is located. The Master Servicer
shall advise the Trustee when, in its good faith opinion, a separate trustee or
co-trustee is necessary or advisable as aforesaid. The separate trustees or
co-trustees so appointed shall be trustees for the benefit of all of the
Certificateholders and shall have such powers, rights and remedies as shall be
specified in the instrument of appointment; provided, however, that no such
appointment shall, or shall be deemed to, constitute the appointee an agent of
the Trustee. The Seller and the Master Servicer shall join in any such
appointment, but such joining shall not be necessary for the effectiveness of
such appointment.
Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by
law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:
(i) all powers, duties, obligations and rights conferred upon the
Trustee, in respect of the receipt, custody and payment of moneys shall be
exercised solely by the Trustee;
(ii) all other rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or
imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised
or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee
jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in
which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee
hereunder or as successor to the Master Servicer hereunder) the Trustee
shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which
event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of
title to the Trust Estate or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction)
shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee;
(iii) no separate trustee or co-trustee hereunder shall be personally
liable by reason of any act or omission of any other separate trustee or
co-trustee hereunder; and
(iv) the Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove
any separate trustee or co-trustee so appointed by it, if such resignation
or removal does not violate the other terms of this Agreement.
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, co-trustee, or custodian shall refer to this Agreement and the
conditions of this Article. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its
acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property
specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee, or
separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this
Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to
the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the
Trustee. Every such instrument shall be furnished to the Trustee.
Any separate trustee, co-trustee, or custodian 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.
No separate trustee or co-trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the
terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.07 hereunder and no
notice to Certificateholders of the appointment thereof shall be required under
Section 8.09 hereof.
The Trustee agrees to instruct its co-trustees, if any, to the extent
necessary to fulfill such entity's obligations hereunder.
The Master Servicer shall pay the reasonable compensation of the
co-trustees to the extent, and in accordance with the standards, specified in
Section 8.06 hereof.
Section 8.13. Appointment of Custodians.
The Trustee may at any time on or after the Closing Date, with the consent
of the Master Servicer and the Seller, appoint one or more Custodians to hold
all or a portion of the Owner Mortgage Loan Files as agent for the Trustee, by
entering into a Custodial Agreement. Subject to this Article VIII, 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. Each Custodian shall be a depository institution subject to
supervision by federal or state authority, shall have a 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 Owner Mortgage Loan File. Each Custodial
Agreement may be amended only as provided in Section 10.01(a).
Section 8.14. Tax Matters; Compliance with REMIC Provisions.
(a) Each of the Trustee and the Master Servicer covenants and agrees that
it shall perform its duties hereunder in a manner consistent with the REMIC
Provisions and shall not knowingly take any action or fail to take any action
that would (i) affect the determination of the Trust Estate's status as two
separate REMICs; or (ii) cause the imposition of any federal, state or local
income, prohibited transaction, contribution or other tax on either the
Upper-Tier REMIC, the Lower-Tier REMIC or the Trust Estate. The Master Servicer,
or, in the case of any tax return or other action required by law to be
performed directly by the Trustee, the Trustee, shall (i) prepare or cause to be
prepared, timely cause to be signed by the Trustee and file or cause to be filed
annual federal and applicable state and local income tax returns for each of the
Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC using a calendar year as the taxable
year and the accrual method of accounting; (ii) in the first such federal tax
returns, make, or cause to be made, elections satisfying the requirements of the
REMIC Provisions, on behalf of the Trust Estate, to treat each of the Upper-Tier
REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC as a REMIC; (iii) prepare, execute and forward,
or cause to be prepared, executed and forwarded, to the Certificateholders all
information reports or tax returns required with respect to the Trust Estate, as
and when required to be provided to the Certificateholders, and to the Internal
Revenue Service and any other relevant governmental taxing authority in
accordance with the REMIC Provisions and any other applicable federal, state or
local laws, including without limitation information reports relating to
"original issue discount" and "market discount" as defined in the Code based
upon the issue prices, prepayment assumption and cash flows provided by the
Seller to the Trustee and calculated on a monthly basis by using the issue
prices of the Certificates; (iv) make available information necessary for the
application of any tax imposed on transferors of residual interests to
"disqualified organizations" (as defined in the REMIC Provisions); (v) file
Forms SS-4 and 8811 and respond to inquiries by Certificateholders or their
nominees concerning information returns, reports or tax returns; (vi) maintain
(or cause to be maintained by the Servicers) such records relating to the
Upper-Tier REMIC and the Lower-Tier REMIC, including but not limited to the
income, expenses, individual Mortgage Loans (including REO Mortgage Loans, other
assets and liabilities of each REMIC, and the fair market value and adjusted
basis of the property of each REMIC determined at such intervals as may be
required by the Code, as may be necessary to prepare the foregoing returns or
information reports; (vii) exercise reasonable care not to allow the creation of
any "interests" in either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC within
the meaning of Code Section 860D(a)(2) other than the interests in the
Upper-Tier REMIC represented by the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4,
Class A-5, Class A-6, Class A-7, Class A-8, Class A-9, Class A-10, Class A-11,
Class A-12, Class A-13, Class A-14, Class A-15, Class A-16, Class A-17, Class
A-18, Class A-19, Class A-20, Class A-PO and Class A-R Certificates, the Class
B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3, Class B-4, Class B-5 and Class B-6 Certificates and
the interests in the Lower-Tier REMIC represented by the Class A-L1, Class A-L2,
Class A-L4, Class A-L12, Class A-L14, Class A-L15, Class A-L17, Class A-LPO,
Class A-LUR, Class B-L1, Class B-L2, Class B-L3, Class B-L4, Class B-L5 and
Class B-L6 Interests and the Class A-LR Certificate; (viii) exercise reasonable
care not to allow the occurrence of any "prohibited transactions" within the
meaning of Code Section 860F(a), unless the Master Servicer shall have provided
an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee that such occurrence would not (a) result
in a taxable gain, (b) otherwise subject either the Upper-Tier REMIC or
Lower-Tier REMIC or the Trust Estate to tax or (c) cause the Trust Estate to
fail to qualify as two separate REMICs; (ix) exercise reasonable care not to
allow either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to receive income from
the performance of services or from assets not permitted under the REMIC
Provisions to be held by a REMIC; (x) pay (on behalf of the Upper-Tier REMIC or
the Lower-Tier REMIC) the amount of any federal income tax, including, without
limitation, prohibited transaction taxes, taxes on net income from foreclosure
property, and taxes on certain contributions to a REMIC after the Startup Day,
imposed on the Upper-Tier REMIC or Lower-Tier REMIC, as the case may be, when
and as the same shall be due and payable (but such obligation shall not prevent
the Master Servicer or any other appropriate Person from contesting any such tax
in appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the Master Servicer from
withholding or depositing payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the
outcome of such proceedings); and (xi) if required or permitted by the Code and
applicable law, act as "tax matters person" for the Upper-Tier REMIC or the
Lower-Tier REMIC within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860F-4(d),
and the Master Servicer is hereby designated as agent of the Class A-R and Class
A-LR Certificateholders for such purpose (or if the Master Servicer is not so
permitted, the Holders of the Class A-R and Class A-LR Certificates shall be tax
matters persons in accordance with the REMIC Provisions). The Master Servicer
shall be entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to Section 3.02 for any taxes paid
by it pursuant to clause (x) of the preceding sentence, except to the extent
that such taxes are imposed as a result of the bad faith, willful misfeasance or
gross negligence of the Master Servicer in the performance of its obligations
hereunder. The Trustee's sole duties with respect to the Upper-Tier REMIC and
Lower Tier REMIC are to sign the tax returns referred to in clause (i) of the
second preceding sentence and to comply with written directions from the Master
Servicer or the Trustee.
In order to enable the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be,
to perform its duties as set forth above, the Seller shall provide, or cause to
be provided, to the Master Servicer within ten days after the Closing Date all
information or data that the Master Servicer determines to be relevant for tax
purposes to the valuations and offering prices of the Certificates, including,
without limitation, the price, yield, prepayment assumption and projected cash
flows of each Class of Certificates and the Mortgage Loans in the aggregate.
Thereafter, the Seller shall provide to the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as
the case may be, promptly upon request therefor, any such additional information
or data that the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, may from
time to time, request in order to enable the Master Servicer to perform its
duties as set forth above. The Seller hereby indemnifies the Master Servicer or
the Trustee, as the case may be, for any losses, liabilities, damages, claims or
expenses of the Master Servicer or the Trustee arising from any errors or
miscalculations by the Master Servicer or the Trustee pursuant to this Section
that result from any failure of the Seller to provide, or to cause to be
provided, accurate information or data to the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as
the case may be, on a timely basis. The Master Servicer hereby indemnifies the
Seller and the Trustee for any losses, liabilities, damages, claims or expenses
of the Seller or the Trustee arising from the Master Servicer's willful
misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in preparing any of the federal,
state and local tax returns of the Upper-Tier REMIC and Lower-Tier REMIC as
described above. In the event that the Trustee prepares any of the federal,
state and local tax returns of the Upper-Tier REMIC or Lower-Tier REMIC as
described above, the Trustee hereby indemnifies the Seller and the Master
Servicer for any losses, liabilities, damages, claims or expenses of the Seller
or the Master Servicer arising from the Trustee's willful misfeasance, bad faith
or negligence in connection with such preparation.
(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of the
Master Servicer and the Trustee shall pay from its own funds, without any right
of reimbursement therefor, the amount of any costs, liabilities and expenses
incurred by the Trust Estate (including, without limitation, any and all
federal, state or local taxes, including taxes imposed on "prohibited
transactions" within the meaning of the REMIC Provisions) if and to the extent
that such costs, liabilities and expenses arise from a failure of the Master
Servicer or the Trustee to perform its obligations under this Section 8.14.
Section 8.15. Monthly Advances.
In the event that Norwest Mortgage fails to make a Periodic Advance
required to be made pursuant to the Norwest Servicing Agreement on or before the
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall make a Periodic Advance as required by
Section 3.03 hereof; provided, however, the Trustee shall not be required to
make such Periodic Advances if prohibited by law or if it determines that such

TERMINATION
Section 9.01. Termination upon Purchase by the
Seller or Liquidation of All Mortgage Loans.
Subject to Section 9.02, the respective obligations and responsibilities of
the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Trustee created hereby (other than the
obligation of the Trustee to make certain payments after the Final Distribution
Date to Certificateholders and the obligation of the Master Servicer to send
certain notices as hereinafter set forth and the tax reporting obligations under
Sections 4.05 and 8.14 hereof) shall terminate upon the last action required to
be taken by the Trustee on the Final Distribution Date pursuant to this Article
IX following the earlier of (i) the purchase by the Seller of all Mortgage Loans
and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust
Estate at a price equal to the sum of (x) 100% of the unpaid principal balance
of each Mortgage Loan (other than any REO Mortgage Loan) as of the Final
Distribution Date, and (y) the fair market value of the Mortgaged Property
related to any REO Mortgage Loan (as determined by the Master Servicer as of the
close of business on the third Business Day next preceding the date upon which
notice of any such termination is furnished to Certificateholders pursuant to
the third paragraph of this Section 9.01), plus any accrued and unpaid interest
through the last day of the month preceding the month of such purchase at the
applicable Mortgage Interest Rate less any Fixed Retained Yield on each Mortgage
Loan (including any REO Mortgage Loan) and (ii) the final payment or other
liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan
remaining in the Trust Estate (including for this purpose the discharge of any
Mortgagor under a defaulted Mortgage Loan on which a Servicer is not obligated
to foreclose due to environmental impairment) or the disposition of all property
acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan;
provided, however, that in no event shall the trust created hereby continue
beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the
descendants of Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the late ambassador of the United States to
the Court of St. Xxxxx, living on the date hereof.
The right of the Seller to purchase all the assets of the Trust Estate
pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph are subject to Section 9.02
and conditioned upon the Pool Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans
as of the Final Distribution Date being less than the amount set forth in
Section 11.22. In the case of any purchase by the Seller pursuant to said clause
(i), the Seller shall provide to the Trustee the certification required by
Section 3.04 and the Trustee and the Custodian shall, promptly following payment
of the purchase price, release to the Seller the Owner Mortgage Loan Files
pertaining to the Mortgage Loans being purchased.
Notice of any termination, specifying the Final Distribution Date (which
shall be a date that would otherwise be a Distribution Date) upon which the
Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates to the Trustee for payment
of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the
Master Servicer (if it is exercising its right to purchase the assets of the
Trust Estate) or by the Trustee (in any other case) by letter to
Certificateholders mailed not earlier than the 15th day of the month preceding
the month of such final distribution and not later than the twentieth day of the
month of such final distribution specifying (A) the Final Distribution Date upon
which final payment of the Certificates will be made upon presentation and
surrender of Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee therein
designated, (B) the amount of any such final payment and (C) that the Record
Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments
being made (except in the case of any Class A Certificate surrendered on a prior
Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01) only upon presentation and surrender
of the Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee therein specified. If
the Master Servicer is obligated to give notice to Certificateholders as
aforesaid, it shall give such notice to the Trustee and the Certificate
Registrar at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders. In the event
such notice is given by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall deposit
in the Certificate Account on or before the Final Distribution Date in
immediately available funds an amount equal to the purchase price for the assets
of the Trust Estate computed as above provided. Failure to give notice of
termination as described herein shall not entitle a Certificateholder to any
interest beyond the interest payable on the Final Distribution Date.
Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Trustee shall
cause to be distributed to Certificateholders on the Final Distribution Date in
proportion to their respective Percentage Interests an amount equal to (i) as to
the Classes of Class A Certificates, the respective Principal Balance together
with any related Class A Unpaid Interest Shortfall and one month's interest in
an amount equal to the respective Interest Accrual Amount, (ii) as to the
Classes of Class B Certificates, the respective Principal Balance together with
any related Class B Unpaid Interest Shortfall and one month's interest in an
amount equal to the respective Interest Accrual Amount and (iii) as to the Class
A-R and Class A-LR Certificates, the amounts, if any, which remain on deposit in
the Upper-Tier Certificate Account and the Certificate Account, respectively
(other than amounts retained to meet claims) after application pursuant to
clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above and payment to the Master Servicer of any
amounts it is entitled as reimbursement or otherwise hereunder. Such amount
shall be distributed in respect of interest and principal in respect of the
Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests in the same amounts as distributed to their
Corresponding Upper-Tier Class or Classes in the manner specified in Section
4.01(a)(ii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the price paid pursuant to clause
(i) of the first paragraph of this Section 9.01, after reimbursement to the
Servicers, the Master Servicer and the Trustee of any Periodic Advances, is
insufficient to pay in full the amounts set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii)
of this paragraph, then any shortfall in the amount available for distribution
to Certificateholders shall be allocated in reduction of the amounts otherwise
distributable on the Final Distribution Date in the same manner as Realized
Losses are allocated pursuant to Sections 4.02(b) and 4.02(g) hereof. Such
distribution on the Final Distribution Date shall be in lieu of the distribution
otherwise required to be made on such Distribution Date in respect of each Class
of Certificates.
In the event that all of the Certificateholders shall not surrender their
Certificates for final payment and cancellation within three months following
the Final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall on such date cause all funds, if
any, in the Certificate Account not distributed in final distribution to
Certificateholders to be withdrawn therefrom and credited to the remaining
Certificateholders by depositing such funds in a separate escrow account for the
benefit of such Certificateholders, and the Master Servicer (if it exercised its
right to purchase the assets of the Trust Estate) or the Trustee (in any other
case) shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to
surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution
with respect thereto. If within three months after the second notice all the
Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may
take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to
contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their
Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds on deposit in
such escrow account.
Section 9.02. Additional Termination Requirements.
In the event of a termination of the Trust Estate upon the exercise by the
Seller of its purchase option as provided in Section 9.01, the Trust Estate
shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements,
unless the Trustee has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that any
other manner of termination (i) will constitute a "qualified liquidation" of the
Trust Estate within the meaning of Code Section 860F(a)(4)(A) and (ii) will not
subject either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to federal tax or
cause the Trust Estate to fail to qualify as two separate REMICs at any time
that any Certificates are outstanding:
(i) The notice given by the Master Servicer under Section 9.01 shall
provide that such notice constitutes the adoption of a plan of complete
liquidation of the Upper-Tier REMIC and Lower-Tier REMIC as of the date of
such notice (or, if earlier, the date on which the first such notice is
mailed to Certificateholders). The Master Servicer shall also specify such
date in a statement attached to the final tax returns of the Upper-Tier
REMIC and Lower-Tier REMIC; and
(ii) At or after the time of adoption of such a plan of complete
liquidation and at or prior to the Final Distribution Date, the Trustee
shall sell all of the assets of the Trust Estate to the Seller for cash at
the purchase price specified in Section 9.01 and shall distribute such cash
within 90 days of such adoption in the manner specified in Section 9.01.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Section 10.01. Amendment.
(a) This Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended from time to
time by the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, and with respect only

Ambac, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders, (i) to cure any
ambiguity or mistake, (ii) to correct or supplement any provisions herein or
therein which may be inconsistent with any other provisions herein or therein,
(iii) to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as
shall be necessary to maintain the qualification of the Trust Estate as two
separate REMICs at all times that any Certificates are outstanding or to avoid
or minimize the risk of the imposition of any federal tax on the Trust Estate,
the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC pursuant to the Code that would be
a claim against the Trust Estate, provided that (a) the Trustee has received an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such action is necessary or desirable to
maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition
of any such tax and (b) such action shall not, as evidenced by such Opinion of
Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any
Certificateholder, (iv) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits into the
Upper-Tier Certificate Account and Certificate Account provided that (a) such
change shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any
material respect the interests of any Certificateholder and (b) such change
shall not adversely affect the then-current rating of the Certificates as
evidenced by a letter from each Rating Agency to such effect (without, in the
case of the Class A-17 Certificates, giving effect to the guaranty provided by
Ambac), (v) to modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of Section 5.02 or any
other provisions hereof restricting transfer of the Certificates, provided that
the Master Servicer for purposes of Section 5.02 has determined in its sole
discretion that any such modifications to this Agreement will neither adversely
affect the rating on the Certificates nor give rise to a risk that either the
Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC or any of the Certificateholders will
be subject to a tax caused by a transfer to a non-permitted transferee and (vi)
to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under
this Agreement or such Custodial Agreement which shall not be materially
inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, provided that such action
shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any
material respect the interests of any Certificateholder.

66-2/3% of the aggregate Voting Interests of each Class of Certificates affected
thereby for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or
eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or such Custodial Agreement
or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such
Class; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner
the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on Mortgage Loans which
are required to be distributed on any Certificate without the consent of the
Holder of such Certificate, (ii) adversely affect in any material respect the
interest of the Holders of Certificates of any Class in a manner other than as
described in clause (i) hereof without the consent of Holders of Certificates of
such Class evidencing, as to such Class, Voting Interests aggregating not less

Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment,
without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then
outstanding.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the Trustee shall
not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall have first
received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment will not
subject either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to tax or cause
either the Upper-Tier REMIC or the Lower-Tier REMIC to fail to qualify as a
REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding.
Promptly after the execution of any amendment requiring the consent of
Certificateholders, the Trustee shall furnish written notification of the
substance of such amendment to each Certificateholder.
It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this
Section 10.01(a) to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but
it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The
manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the
execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable
regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.
(b) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the Master
Servicer may, from time to time, amend Schedule I hereto without the consent of
any Certificateholder or the Trustee or Ambac; provided, however, (i) that such
amendment does not conflict with any provisions of the related Servicing
Agreement, (ii) that the related Servicing Agreement provides for the remittance
of each type of Unscheduled Principal Receipts received by such Servicer during
the Applicable Unscheduled Principal Receipt Period (as so amended) related to
each Distribution Date to the Master Servicer no later than the 24th day of the
month in which such Distribution Date occurs and (iii) that such amendment is
for the purpose of:
(i) changing the Applicable Unscheduled Principal Receipt Period for
Exhibit F-1 Mortgage Loans to a Mid-Month Receipt Period with respect
to all Unscheduled Principal Receipts; or
(ii) changing the Applicable Unscheduled Principal Receipt Period for all
Mortgage Loans serviced by any Servicer to a Mid-Month Receipt Period

constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members of an
association, nor shall any Certificateholder be under any liability to any third
person by reason of any action taken by the parties to this Agreement pursuant

one or more Holders of Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatever

approximately 66.05000000%; (ii) the annual yield to maturity of this
Certificate, compounded monthly, is approximately 26.17%; and (iii) the amount
of OID allocable to the short first accrual period (June 26, 1998 to July 25,
1998) as a percentage of the initial principal balance of this Certificate,
calculated using the exact method, is approximately 0.17196964%.

[Form of Reverse of Series 1998-15 Certificates]
NORWEST ASSET SECURITIES CORPORATION
MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATES SERIES 1998-15
This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates issued
in several Classes designated as Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates of the
Series specified hereon (herein collectively called the "Certificates").
The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and
recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth
herein and in the Agreement. In the event funds are advanced with respect to any
Mortgage Loan by a Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, such advances
are reimbursable to such Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee to the
extent provided in the Agreement, from related recoveries on such Mortgage Loan
or from other cash that would have been distributable to Certificateholders.
As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Certificate Account
created for the benefit of Certificateholders may be made by the Master Servicer
from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders,
such purposes including reimbursement to a Servicer, the Master Servicer or the
Trustee, as applicable, of advances made by such Servicer, the Master Servicer
or the Trustee.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and obligations of
the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the
Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Seller, the Master
Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66 2/3% of the Voting Interests of
each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of
this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all
future holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the
transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof whether or not notation
of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also permits the
amendment thereof in certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of
any of the Certificates.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set
forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate
Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the
office or agency appointed by the Trustee, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by
an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar, duly executed by the
Holder hereof or such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and
thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized Denominations evidencing
the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.
The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without
coupons in Classes and Denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in
the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates
are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized Denominations evidencing the
same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder
surrendering the same.
No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a
sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in
connection therewith.
The Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar,
and any agent of the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate
Registrar, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as
the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Seller, the Master Servicer,
the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.
The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificates and
the Trust Estate created thereby shall terminate upon the last action required
to be taken by the Trustee on the Final Distribution Date pursuant to the
Agreement following the earlier of (i) the payment or other liquidation (or
advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan subject thereto or the
disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of
foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the purchase by the Seller from the
Trust Estate of all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in
respect of such Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that the Trust Estate will in
no event 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 of the Agreement.
The Agreement permits, but does not require, the Seller to purchase all
remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage
Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such
option will effect early retirement of the Certificates, the Seller's right to
exercise such option being subject to the Pool Scheduled Principal Balance of
the Mortgage Loans as of the Distribution Date upon which the proceeds of such
repurchase are distributed being less than ten percent of the Cut-Off Date
Aggregate Principal Balance.

THIS CUSTODIAL AGREEMENT (as amended and supplemented from time to time,
the "Agreement"), dated as of _____________, by and among FIRST UNION NATIONAL

W I T N E S S E T H T H A T
WHEREAS, the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, have entered into
a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of June 26, 1998 relating to the
issuance of Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 1998-15 (as in effect on
the date of this Agreement, the "Original Pooling and Servicing Agreement", and
as amended and supplemented from time to time, the "Pooling and Servicing
Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, the Custodian has agreed to act as agent for the Trustee for the
purposes of receiving and holding certain documents and other instruments
delivered by the Seller under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, all upon the
terms and conditions and subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants
and agreements hereinafter set forth, the Trustee, the Seller, the Master
Servicer and the Custodian hereby agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
Definitions
Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein shall have
the meanings assigned in the Original Pooling and Servicing Agreement, unless
otherwise required by the context herein.
ARTICLE II
Custody of Mortgage Documents
Section 2.1. Custodian to Act as Agent; Acceptance of Custodial Files. The
Custodian, as the duly appointed agent of the Trustee for these purposes,
acknowledges receipt of the Mortgage Notes, the Mortgages, the assignments and
other documents relating to the Mortgage Loans identified on the schedule
attached hereto and declares that it holds and will hold such Mortgage Notes,
Mortgages, assignments and other documents and any similar documents received by
the Trustee subsequent to the date hereof (the "Custodial Files") as agent for
the Trustee, in trust, for the use and benefit of all present and future
Certificateholders.
Section 2.2. Recordation of Assignments. If any Custodial File includes one
or more assignments to the Trustee of Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages that
have not been recorded, each such assignment shall be delivered by the Custodian
to the Seller for the purpose of recording it in the appropriate public office
for real property records, and the Seller, at no expense to the Custodian, shall
promptly cause to be recorded in the appropriate public office for real property
records each such assignment and, upon receipt thereof from such public office,
shall return each such assignment to the Custodian.
Section 2.3. Review of Custodial Files. The Custodian agrees, for the
benefit of Certificateholders, to review, in accordance with the provisions of
Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, each Custodial File. If in
performing the review required by this Section 2.3 the Custodian finds any
document or documents constituting a part of a Custodial File to be missing or
defective in any material respect, the Custodian shall promptly so notify the
Seller, the Master Servicer and the Trustee.
Section 2.4. Notification of Breaches of Representations and Warranties.
Upon discovery by the Custodian of a breach of any representation or warranty
made by the Seller or the Master Servicer as set forth in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, the Custodian shall give prompt written notice to the
Seller, the Master Servicer and the Trustee.
Section 2.5. Custodian to Cooperate; Release of Custodial Files. Upon the
payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Master Servicer of a
notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for
such purposes, the Master Servicer shall immediately notify the Custodian by a
certification (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 Certificate Account pursuant to Section 3.02 of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement have been or will be so deposited) of a
Servicing Officer and shall request delivery to it of the Custodial File. The
Custodian agrees, upon receipt of such certification and request, promptly to
release the related Custodial File to the Master Servicer.
From time to time as is appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian a certificate
of a Servicing Officer requesting that possession of all, or any document
constituting part of, the Custodial File be released to the Master Servicer and
certifying as to the reason for such release and that such release will not
invalidate any insurance coverage provided in respect of the Mortgage Loan. With
such certificate, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian a receipt
signed by a Servicing Officer on behalf of the Master Servicer, and upon receipt
of the foregoing, the Custodian shall deliver the Custodial File or such
document to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall cause each Custodial
File or any document therein so released to be returned to the Custodian when
the need therefor by the Master Servicer no longer exists, unless (i) the
Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the
Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Certificate Account to the extent
required by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or (ii) the Custodial File or
such document has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other
public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal
action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property either
judicially or non-judicially, and the Master Servicer has delivered to the
Custodian a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and
address of the Person to which such Custodial File or such document were
delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery. In the event of the
liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, the Custodian shall deliver such receipt with
respect thereto to the Master Servicer upon deposit of the related Liquidation
Proceeds in the Certificate Account to the extent required by the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.
Section 2.6. Assumption Agreements. In the event that any assumption
agreement or substitution of liability agreement is entered into with respect to
any Mortgage Loan subject to this Agreement in accordance with the terms and
provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall
notify the Custodian that such assumption or substitution agreement has been
completed by forwarding to the Custodian the original of such assumption or
substitution agreement, which copy shall be added to the related Custodial File
and, for all purposes, shall be considered a part of such Custodial File to the
same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting parts thereof.
ARTICLE III
Concerning the Custodian
Section 3.1. Custodian a Bailee and Agent of the Trustee. With respect to
each Mortgage Note, Mortgage and other documents constituting each Custodian
File which are delivered to the Custodian, the Custodian is exclusively the
bailee and agent of the Trustee, holds such documents for the benefit of
Certificateholders and undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as
are specifically set forth in this Agreement. Except upon compliance with the
provisions of Section 2.5 of this Agreement, no Mortgage Note, Mortgage or other
document constituting a part of a Custodial File shall be delivered by the
Custodian to the Seller or the Master Servicer or otherwise released from the
possession of the Custodian.
Section 3.2. Indemnification. The Seller hereby agrees to indemnify and
hold the Custodian harmless from and against all claims, liabilities, losses,
actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity, or any other expenses, fees
or charges of any character or nature, which the Custodian may incur or with
which the Custodian may be threatened by reasons of its acting as custodian
under this Agreement, including indemnification of the Custodian against any and
all expenses, including attorney's fees if counsel for the Custodian has been
approved by the Seller, and the cost of defending any action, suit or
proceedings or resisting any claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is
specifically understood and agreed that in the event any such claim, liability,
loss, action, suit or proceeding or other expense, fees, or charge shall have
been caused by reason of any negligent act, negligent failure to act, or willful
misconduct on the part of the Custodian, or which shall constitute a willful
breach of its duties hereunder, the indemnification provisions of this Agreement
shall not apply.
Section 3.3. Custodian May Own Certificates. The Custodian in its
individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates
with the same rights it would have if it were not Custodian.
Section 3.4. Master Servicer to Pay Custodian's Fees and Expenses. The
Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the Custodian from time to time,
and the Custodian shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for all services
rendered by it in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties
hereunder of the Custodian, and the Master Servicer will pay or reimburse the
Custodian upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and
advances incurred or made by the Custodian in accordance with any of the
provisions of this Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the
expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not regularly in
its employ), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from
its negligence or bad faith.
Section 3.5. Custodian May Resign; Trustee May Remove Custodian. The
Custodian may resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed upon it as
such obligations and duties relate to its acting as Custodian of the Mortgage
Loans. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Trustee shall either take
custody of the Custodial Files itself and give prompt notice thereof to the
Seller, the Master Servicer and the Custodian or promptly appoint a successor
Custodian by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument
shall be delivered to the resigning Custodian and one copy to the successor
Custodian. If the Trustee shall not have taken custody of the Custodial Files
and no successor Custodian shall have been so appointed and have accepted
resignation, the resigning Custodian may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Custodian.
The Trustee may remove the Custodian at any time. In such event, the
Trustee shall appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint,
a successor Custodian hereunder. Any successor Custodian shall be a depository
institution subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority
and shall be able to satisfy the other requirements contained in Section 3.7.
Any resignation or removal of the Custodian and appointment of a successor
Custodian pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 3.5 shall become
effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Custodian. The Trustee
shall give prompt notice to the Seller and the Master Servicer of the
appointment of any successor Custodian. No successor Custodian shall have been
appointed and accepted appointment by the Trustee without the prior approval of
the Seller and the Master Servicer.
Section 3.6. Merger or Consolidation of Custodian. Any Person into which
the Custodian may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated,
or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which
the Custodian shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the
Custodian, shall be the successor of the Custodian hereunder, without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the
parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.
Section 3.7. Representations of the Custodian. The Custodian hereby
represents that it is a depository institution subject to supervision or
examination by a federal or state authority, has a combined capital and surplus
of at least $10,000,000 and is qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in
which it will hold any Custodian File.
ARTICLE IV

communications required under this Agreement or pursuant to any other instrument
or document delivered hereunder shall be in writing and, unless otherwise
specifically provided, may be delivered personally, by telegram or telex, or by
registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, at the
addresses specified on the signature page hereof (unless changed by the
particular party whose address is stated herein by similar notice in writing),
in which case the notice will be deemed delivered when received.
Section 4.2. Amendments. No modification or amendment of or supplement to
this Agreement shall be valid or effective unless the same is in writing and
signed by all parties hereto, and neither the Seller, the Master Servicer nor
the Trustee shall enter into any amendment hereof except as permitted by the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Trustee shall give prompt notice to the
Custodian of any amendment or supplement to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
and furnish the Custodian with written copies thereof.
Section 4.3. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be deemed a contract made
under the laws of the State of New York and shall be construed and enforced in
accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York.
Section 4.4. Recordation of Agreement. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, this Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate
public offices for real property records in all the counties or other comparable
jurisdictions in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are
situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere,
such recordation to be effected by the Master Servicer and at its expense on
direction by the Trustee, but only upon direction accompanied by an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such recordation materially and beneficially affects
the interests of the Certificateholders.
For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement as herein
provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed simultaneously
in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall be deemed to be
an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same
instrument.
Section 4.5. Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the
covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be for any
reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements, provisions or
terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements,
provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity or
enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement or of the Certificates
or the rights of the holders thereof.
