D. While the Immobilized Bonds deposited with the Custodian hereunder are not pledged to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac as security for the Sponsor’s obligations to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac under the Reimbursement Agreement, the Depositor has agreed that such Immobilized Bonds shall be immobilized in the custody of the Custodian for ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac’s benefit during the term of the Reimbursement Agreement.
E. The Custodian has agreed to act as Custodian upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Custody Agreement.

2. Custody of the Bonds. Upon the execution and delivery of this Custody Agreement by the parties hereto, the Depositor shall irrevocably deliver to and deposit with the Custodian the Immobilized Bonds free and clear of all claims, liens and security interests and encumbrances, and the Custodian shall accept delivery of the Immobilized Bonds. The Custodian hereby acknowledges its receipt of the Immobilized Bonds and copies of the executed instruments of transfer with respect thereto. If not initially delivered registered in the name of the Custodian, the Custodian shall use best efforts to arrange with each applicable Bond Trustee for the Immobilized Bonds to be registered in the name of the Custodian or its nominee, and the Depositor shall assist, cooperate and take any action needed to accomplish the registration of the Immobilized Bonds in the name of the Custodian or its nominee. The Custodian shall establish a segregated account, separate and apart from all other accounts of the Custodian, designated the “Immobilized Bonds Account” into which the Custodian shall deposit the Immobilized Bonds and any payments received with respect thereto.
3. Bond Payments. Payments received by the Custodian with respect to a series of Immobilized Bonds shall be promptly paid over to the Depositor except as set forth herein. If the Custodian either obtains actual knowledge that a payment received with respect to the Immobilized Bonds has not been made in accordance with the applicable Bond Documents or the Custodian receives written notice from ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac or the Servicer that such payment has not been made in accordance with the applicable Bond Documents, such payment shall not be paid over to the Depositor, but instead shall be returned to the applicable Bond Trustee to be disbursed in accordance with the applicable Bond Documents. If the Custodian either obtains actual knowledge of an Event of Default or the Custodian receives written notice from ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac or the Servicer of an Event of Default, any payments wrongfully received by the Custodian with respect to the related series of Immobilized Bonds shall not be paid over to the Depositor, but instead shall be held by the Custodian in escrow hereunder and shall, subject to Section 5.2(vi) below, be invested at the written direction of the Depositor pending the resolution of the Event Default. If such Event of Default is cured or waived, the Custodian shall release the applicable funds to the Depositor at the written direction of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac. If such Event of Default is not cured or waived and an acceleration occurs with respect to the related series of Senior Bonds, at the written direction of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac, the Custodian shall release such funds to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac in payment for any obligations due to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac with respect to such Senior Bonds.
4. Subordination; No Exercise of Rights or Remedies.
3
4.1. The Custodian and the Depositor hereby acknowledge that all rights to payments with respect to a series of Immobilized Bonds shall be subordinate to all amounts due with respect to the applicable series of Senior Bonds as set forth in the applicable Bond Documents and hereunder, both prior to and after the respective maturity dates of the Immobilized Bonds. During the term hereof, the Depositor’s only rights with respect to the Immobilized Bonds shall be to receive payments thereon as provided herein.
4.2. Without the prior written consent of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac in each instance, neither the Custodian nor the Depositor shall (i) amend, modify, waive, extend, renew or replace any provision of any of the Bond Documents, (ii) pledge, assign, transfer, convey, or sell any interest in the Immobilized Bonds or any of the Bond Documents; (iii) accept any payment on account of the Immobilized Bonds unless it is in compliance with the terms of the Bond Documents and the terms hereof; (iv) take any action which has the effect of increasing the amount of the Immobilized Bonds; or (v) exercise (or direct the exercise of) any right of consent, voting right or proxy or any other right or action under the Bond Documents or otherwise with respect to the Immobilized Bonds, including, but not limited to any remedial rights or action.
4.3. The Custodian and the Depositor acknowledge that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac may grant or refuse consent to any remedial rights or actions with respect to the Immobilized Bonds in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac’s sole and absolute discretion. The exercise of any remedial rights or actions with respect to the Immobilized Bonds will be subject to the terms hereof. The Custodian and the Depositor acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 4 are fair and reasonable under the circumstances, that the Depositor has received a substantial benefit from ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac having granted its consent to keep the Immobilized Bonds outstanding, and that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac would not have granted such consent without the inclusion of these provisions in this Custody Agreement.
4.4. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac may pursue all rights and remedies available to it under the Bond Documents, at law, or in equity. No action or failure to act on the part of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac in the event of any Event of Default shall constitute a waiver on the part of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac of any provision of the Bond Documents or this Custody Agreement.
4.5. The Depositor shall have the right to have a series of Immobilized Bonds released on any Business Day from under this Custody Agreement in the event either (i) the related series of Senior Bonds are released from the applicable Series Pool pursuant to a Release Event funded by the Sponsor or (ii) the full amount outstanding of the related series of Senior Bonds have been redeemed and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac has been fully reimbursed with respect to any Advance made in connection with such redemption. In connection with any release of Immobilized Bonds pursuant to this Section 4.5, the Depositor shall provide written notice to the Custodian setting forth the circumstances allowing such release and the date on which such release is to occur, along with a signed acknowledgement from ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac that the conditions to release have occurred.
4.6. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Depositor shall have the right to direct the Custodian in writing to surrender a series of Immobilized Bonds to the applicable Bond Trustee for cancellation in accordance with the applicable Bond Documents pursuant to a written direction to the Custodian (along with a copy of such direction to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
4
Mac). Upon cancellation, the Custodian shall promptly provide written notice of such cancellation to the Depositor and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac.
5. Custody Provisions.
5.1. Custody Arrangement. The Custodian shall hold the Immobilized Bonds (including all payments derived therefrom) delivered to it pursuant to this Custody Agreement in custody only, identified separate and apart from the general assets of the Custodian. The Custodian shall not have the authority to assign, transfer, pledge, set-off or otherwise dispose of any of the Immobilized Bonds, or of any interests therein, except as provided hereunder or as required by law.
5.2. Appointment and Powers of the Custodian.
(i) The Depositor acknowledges the appointment of the Custodian as custodian for ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac under this Custody Agreement, and authorizes the Custodian to take such action and to exercise such rights, remedies, powers and privileges under this Custody Agreement as are specifically authorized to be exercised by the Custodian by the terms of this Custody Agreement. The Custodian may execute any of its duties as custodian under this Custody Agreement by or through agents or employees and shall be entitled to consult with and retain experts (including counsel) and to act in reliance upon the advice of such experts (including legal opinions) concerning all matters pertaining to the agencies created by this Custody Agreement and its duties under this Custody Agreement, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel selected by it. The Custodian agrees to perform only those duties specifically set forth in this Custody Agreement and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Custody Agreement.
(ii) The Custodian shall have no duty to exercise any discretionary right, remedy, power or privilege granted to it by this Custody Agreement, or to take any affirmative action under this Custody Agreement, unless directed to do so by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac in writing, and shall not, without the prior written approval of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac, consent to any departure by the Depositor from the terms of this Custody Agreement, waive any uncured default on the part of the Depositor under this Custody Agreement or amend, modify, supplement or terminate, or agree to any surrender of, this Custody Agreement or the Immobilized Bonds; provided, that the Custodian shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Custodian to personal liability, financial or otherwise, or which is contrary to this Custody Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating to the Immobilized Bonds or applicable law.
(iii) Neither the Custodian nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents, shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under this Custody Agreement, or in connection with this Custody Agreement, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct; nor shall the Custodian be responsible for the validity, effectiveness, value, sufficiency or enforceability against the Depositor of this Custody Agreement or any other document furnished pursuant to this Custody Agreement or in connection with this Custody Agreement, or of the Immobilized Bonds
5
(or any part thereof), or for the perfection or priority of any security interest purported to be granted under this Custody Agreement.
(iv) The Custodian shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any communication, instrument, paper or other document believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons.
(v) None of the provisions contained in this Custody Agreement shall require the Custodian to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers under this Custody Agreement except for any liability of the Custodian arising from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
(vi) The Custodian may conclusively rely upon the Depositor’s written instructions as to both the suitability and legality of all directed investments. The Custodian may make any and all investments through its own investment department or that of its affiliates or subsidiaries, and may charge its ordinary and customary fees for such trades. In the absence of written investment instructions from the Depositor, the Custodian shall not be responsible or liable for keeping the moneys held by it hereunder fully invested. The Custodian shall not be liable for any loss from any directed investments. Each of the parties hereto (other than the Custodian) agree that broker confirmations of permitted investments are not required to be issued by the Custodian for each month in which a monthly statement is rendered by the Custodian.
5.3. Successor Custodian.
(i) The Custodian acting under this Custody Agreement at any time may resign by an instrument in writing addressed and delivered to the Depositor and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac, and may be removed at any time with or without cause by an instrument in writing duly executed by or on behalf of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac.
(ii) ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac shall have the right to appoint a successor to the Custodian upon any such resignation or removal by an instrument of substitution complying with the requirements of applicable law, or, in the absence of any such requirements, without formality other than appointment and designation in writing. Upon the making and acceptance of such appointment, the execution and delivery by such successor Custodian of a ratifying instrument pursuant to which such successor Custodian agrees to assume the duties and obligations imposed on the Custodian by the terms of this Custody Agreement, and the delivery to such successor Custodian of the Immobilized Bonds and documents and instruments then held by the retiring Custodian, such successor Custodian shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the estate, rights, powers, remedies, privileges, immunities, indemnities, duties and obligations by this Custody Agreement granted to or conferred or imposed upon the Custodian named in this Custody Agreement, and on such appointment and designation shall not exhaust the right to appoint and designate further successor Custodians under this Custody Agreement. No Custodian shall be discharged from its duties or obligations under this Custody
6
Agreement until the Immobilized Bonds and documents and instruments then held by such Custodian shall have been transferred or delivered to the successor Custodian with notice to the Depositor and until such retiring Custodian shall have executed and delivered to the successor Custodian appropriate instruments assigning the retiring Custodian’s security or other interest in the Immobilized Bonds to the successor Custodian. The retiring Custodian shall not be required to make any representation or warranty in connection with any such transfer or assignment, except only that it has not created any liens on the Immobilized Bonds other than liens granted pursuant to this Custody Agreement.
(iii) If no successor Custodian shall be appointed, as provided above, or, if appointed, shall not have accepted its appointment, within thirty (30) days after resignation or removal of the retiring Custodian, then the Custodian may appoint a successor Custodian satisfying the terms herof. Each such successor Custodian shall provide the Depositor and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac with its address, to be used for purposes of giving notice hereunder. Notwithstanding the resignation or removal of any Custodian under this Custody Agreement, the provisions of this Custody Agreement shall continue to inure to the benefit of such Custodian in respect of any action taken or omitted to be taken by such Custodian in its capacity as such while it was Custodian under this Custody Agreement.

5.5. Fees, Expenses, Indemnification. Depositor shall pay to the Custodian such reasonable fee for its services as shall be agreed upon by the Custodian. Depositor agrees to reimburse the Custodian, on demand, for all reasonable out-of pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Custodian in connection with the administration and enforcement of this Custody Agreement (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees, costs and expenses) and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Custodian and its officers, directors, agents, employees, subsidiaries and affiliates from and against any and all losses, costs, claims, damages, penalties, causes of action, suits, judgments, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses) incurred by the Custodian under this Custody Agreement or in connection with this Custody Agreement, unless such liability shall be due to willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the Custodian or its agents or employees. The Custodian shall not be liable for any action undertaken by it pursuant to this Custody Agreement unless due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Custodian. The obligations of the Depositor under this Section 5.5 shall survive the termination of this Custody Agreement, the resignation of the Custodian, and the discharge of the other obligations of the Depositor under this Custody Agreement.

6.7. Invalidity. The invalidity or enforceability of any provision of this Custody Agreement shall not affect the validity of any other provision and all other provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
6.8. Severability. If any term or other provision of this Custody Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Custody Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Custody Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the greatest extent possible.
6.9. Multiple Counterparts. This Custody Agreement may be simultaneously executed in multiple counterparts, all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument and each of which shall be, and shall be deemed to be, an original.
6.10. Effectiveness. This Custody Agreement shall be effective upon full execution by the parties hereto.
