1997 (this "Agreement") among XXXXXX XXXXXXX CAPITAL I INC., as depositor (the
"Depositor"), GMAC COMMERCIAL MORTGAGE CORPORATION, as master servicer (in such
capacity, the "Master Servicer") and as special servicer (in such capacity, the
"Special Servicer"), LASALLE NATIONAL BANK, as trustee (the "Trustee") of the
trust created hereby (the "Trust"), and ABN AMRO BANK N.V., as fiscal agent
(only in its capacity as a party required to make Advances pursuant to Article
IV hereof) (the "Fiscal Agent").
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
On the Closing Date, the Depositor will acquire certain Mortgage Loans from
GMAC Commercial Mortgage Corporation, as seller ("GMACCM" and, in such capacity,
a "Seller"), certain other Mortgage Loans from ContiTrade Services L.L.C.
("ContiTrade" and also a "Seller"), and the remaining Mortgage Loans from Xxxxxx
Xxxxxxx Mortgage Capital Inc. ("MSMC" and also a "Seller"); and, as of such
date, the Depositor will be the owner of the Mortgage Loans and the other
property being conveyed by it to the Trustee for inclusion in the Trust. On the
Closing Date, the Depositor will acquire (i) the REMIC I Regular Interests and
the Class R-I Certificates as consideration for its transfer to the Trust of the
Mortgage Loans and the other property constituting the Trust; (ii) the REMIC II
Regular Interests and the Class R-II Certificates as consideration for its
transfer of the REMIC I Regular Interests to the Trust; and (iii) the REMIC III
Certificates as consideration for its transfer of the REMIC II Regular Interests
to the Trust. The Depositor has duly authorized the execution and delivery of
this Agreement to provide for the foregoing and the issuance of (a) the REMIC I
Regular Interests and the Class R-I Certificates representing in the aggregate
the entire beneficial ownership of REMIC I, (b) the REMIC II Regular Interests
and the Class R-II Certificates representing in the aggregate the entire
beneficial ownership of REMIC II and (c) the REMIC III Certificates representing
in the aggregate the entire beneficial ownership of REMIC III. All covenants and
agreements made by the Depositor and the Trustee herein with respect to the
Mortgage Loans and the other property constituting the Trust are for the benefit
of the Holders of the Certificates. The parties hereto are entering into this
Agreement, and the Trustee is accepting the trusts created hereby, for good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged.
REMIC I
As provided herein, the Trustee will make an election for the segregated
pool of assets described in Section 12.1 hereof consisting of the Mortgage Loans
and certain related assets to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a
real estate mortgage investment conduit (a "REMIC" and, such particular
segregated pool of assets, "REMIC I"). The REMIC I Regular Interests will be
designated as the "regular interests" in REMIC I and the Class R-I Certificates
will be designated as the sole class of "residual interests" in REMIC I.
A separate uncertificated REMIC I Regular Interest will be issued with
respect to each Mortgage Loan. Each REMIC I Regular Interest will have: (i) a
remittance rate (a "REMIC I Remittance Rate") equal to, in the case of a Fixed
Rate Mortgage Loan, the Net Mortgage Rate of the related Mortgage Loan in effect
as of the Closing Date and, in the case of an Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loan, the
Net Mortgage Rate in effect from time to time in accordance with the terms of
the related Mortgage Note as of the Closing Date; (ii) a principal amount (an
"Uncertificated Principal Balance") equal to the Stated Principal Balance of the
related Mortgage Loan outstanding from time to time; and (iii), solely for
purposes of satisfying Treasury regulation Section 1.860G- 1(a)(4)(iii), a
latest possible maturity date set to the first Distribution Date that follows
the Stated Maturity Date of the related Mortgage Loan. The Class R-I
Certificates will constitute the sole class of residual interests in REMIC I for
purposes of the REMIC Provisions and will have no principal balances and no
remittance rate, but will be entitled to receive on each Distribution Date any
portion of the Available Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date not
otherwise deemed distributed on the REMIC I Regular Interests.
REMIC II
As provided herein, the Trustee will make an election for the segregated
pool of assets described in Section 12.1 hereof consisting of the REMIC I
Regular Interests to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a REMIC (such
particular pool of assets "REMIC II"). The REMIC II Regular Interests will be
designated as the "regular interests" in REMIC II and the Class R-II
Certificates will be designated as the sole class of "residual interests" in
REMIC II for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.
Fifteen separate uncertificated REMIC II Regular Interests will be issued.
The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation, remittance rate (the
"REMIC II Remittance Rate") and initial Uncertificated Principal Balance for
each REMIC II Regular Interest. Solely for purposes of satisfying Treasury
regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the latest possible maturity date of
each REMIC II Regular Interest shall be the first Distribution Date that follows
the Stated Maturity Date for the Mortgage Loan that has, as of the Closing Date,
the latest Stated Maturity Date. The Class R-II Certificates will have no
principal balances and no remittance rate, but will be entitled to receive on
each Distribution Date any portion of the REMIC II Distribution Amount for such
Distribution Date not otherwise deemed distributed on the REMIC II Regular
Interests.

ARTICLE II
DECLARATION OF TRUST;
ISSUANCES OF CERTIFICATES
Section 2.1 Conveyance of Mortgage Loans.
(a) The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof,
does hereby assign to the Trustee without recourse for the benefit of the
Certificateholders all the right, title and interest of the Depositor, including
any security interest therein for the benefit of the Depositor, in, to and under
(i) the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, (ii) Sections
2, 4(a) and 6 of each Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and, to the extent it
relates to the obligations of ContiTrade under such Sections of Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement II, the right, title and interest of the Depositor in, to and
under the Xxxxx Guaranty Agreement, (iii) the Additional Warranty Agreements (to
the extent assigned to the Depositor under Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement I),
and (iv) all other assets included or to be included in REMIC I. Such assignment
includes all interest and principal received or receivable on or with respect to
the Mortgage Loans (other than payments of principal and interest due and
payable on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date). The transfer of
the Mortgage Loans and the related rights and property accomplished hereby is
absolute and, notwithstanding Section 13.12, is intended by the parties to
constitute a sale.
(b) In connection with the Depositor's assignment pursuant to Section
2.1(a) above, the Depositor shall direct, and hereby represents and warrants
that it has directed, each Seller pursuant to the applicable Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement to deliver to and deposit with, or cause to be delivered to
and deposited with, the Trustee or a Custodian appointed thereby (with a copy to
the Master Servicer), on or before the Closing Date, the Mortgage File for each
Mortgage Loan so assigned. If a Seller cannot so deliver, or cause to be
delivered, as to any of its Mortgage Loans, the original or a copy of any of the
documents and/or instruments referred to in clauses (ii), (iv), (viii), (xi)(A)
and (xii) of the definition of "Mortgage File", with (if appropriate) evidence
of recording or filing, as the case may be, thereon, solely because of a delay
caused by the public recording or filing office where such document or
instrument has been delivered for recordation or filing, the delivery
requirements of this Section 2.1(b) shall be
-56-
deemed to have been satisfied as to such missing item, and such missing item
shall be deemed to have been included in the related Mortgage File, provided
that such Seller has delivered to the Trustee on or before the Closing Date a
copy of such document or instrument (without evidence of recording or filing
thereon, but certified (which certificate may relate to multiple documents
and/or instruments) by such Seller to be a true and complete copy of the
original thereof submitted for recording or filing, as the case may be), and the
Seller shall deliver to or at the direction of the Trustee, promptly following
the receipt thereof, the original of such missing document or instrument (or a
copy thereof) with (if appropriate) evidence of recording or filing, as the case
may be, thereon. If a Seller cannot so deliver, or cause to be delivered, as to
any of its Mortgage Loans, the original or a copy of the related lender's title
insurance policy referred to in clause (ix) of the definition of "Mortgage File"
solely because such policy has not yet been issued, the delivery requirements of
this Section 2.1(b) shall be deemed to be satisfied as to such missing item, and
such missing item shall be deemed to have been included in the related Mortgage
File, provided that such Seller has delivered to the Trustee on or before the
Closing Date a commitment for title insurance "marked-up" at the closing of such
Mortgage Loan, and such Seller shall deliver to or at the direction of the
Purchaser (or any subsequent owner of the affected Mortgage Loan, including
without limitation the Trustee), promptly following the receipt thereof, the
original related lender's title insurance policy (or a copy thereof). In
addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if there
exists with respect to any group of related Cross-Collateralized Mortgage Loans
only one original of any document referred to in the definition of "Mortgage
File" covering all the Mortgage Loans in such group, then the inclusion of the
original of such document in the Mortgage File for any of the Mortgage Loans in
such group shall be deemed an inclusion of such original in the Mortgage File
for each such Mortgage Loan. None of the Trustee, any Custodian, the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer shall be liable for any failure by any Seller
or the Depositor to comply with the document delivery requirements of the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreements and this Section 2.1(b).
If any of the endorsements referred to in clause (i) of the definition of
"Mortgage File", or any of the assignments referred to in clauses (iii), (v),
(vii), (x) and (xi)(B) of the definition of "Mortgage File", are delivered to
the Trustee in blank, the Trustee shall be responsible for completing the
related endorsement or assignment in the name of the Trustee (in such capacity).
(c) The Trustee shall, as to each Mortgage Loan, at the expense of the
related Seller, promptly (and in any event within 45 days following the receipt
thereof) deliver to a designee of the related Seller for purposes of its being
recorded or filed, as the case may be, in the appropriate public office for real
property records or UCC financing statements, as appropriate, each assignment to
the Trustee referred to in clauses (iii), (v) and (xi)(B) of the definition of
"Mortgage File". Each such assignment shall reflect that it should be returned
by the public recording office to the Trustee following recording or filing (at
which time it shall deliver a copy thereof to the Master Servicer); provided
that in those instances where the public recording office retains the original
assignment of Mortgage or assignment of Assignment of Leases, the Trustee shall
request such designee to obtain therefrom for the Trustee and the Master
Servicer at the expense of the related Seller a certified copy of the recorded
original. If any such document or instrument is lost or returned unrecorded or
unfiled, as the case may be, because of a defect therein, the Trustee shall
direct the related Seller pursuant to the applicable Mortgage
-57-
Loan Purchase Agreement promptly to prepare or cause to be prepared a substitute
therefor or cure such defect, as the case may be, and thereafter the Trustee
shall upon receipt thereof deliver the same to a designee of the related Seller
for purposes of its being recorded or filed, as appropriate.
(d) All documents and records in the possession of the Depositor or the
Sellers that relate to the Mortgage Loans and that are not required to be a part
of a Mortgage File in accordance with the definition thereof shall be delivered
to the Master Servicer on or before the Closing Date and shall be held by the
Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the
Certificateholders.
(e) In connection with the Depositor's assignment pursuant to Section
2.1(a) above, the Depositor shall deliver to the Trustee on or before the
Closing Date a copy of a fully executed counterpart of each Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement and each Additional Warranty Agreement, as in full force and
effect on the Closing Date.

constituting a part of the Mortgage Files delivered to it, (ii) the REMIC I

Agreement in respect of the Final Certification, the Trustee shall examine the
Mortgage Files in its possession, and shall deliver to the Depositor, the Master

examination and only as to the foregoing documents, the loan number, the street

-58-
Mortgagor set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule respecting such Mortgage Loan
accurately reflects the information contained in the documents in the Mortgage
File and (Z) each Mortgage Note has been endorsed and each Mortgage has been
assigned as provided in clauses (i) and (iii) of the definition of "Mortgage
File." The Trustee shall deliver to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer
and each Seller (as to its respective Mortgage Loans only), a copy of such Final
Certification. Within 180 days after the Cut-off Date, the Trustee shall provide
a confirmation to the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and each Seller of

to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, securities or
other papers to determine whether they or the signatures thereon are valid,
legal, genuine, enforceable, in recordable form or appropriate for their
represented purposes, or that they are other than what they purport to be on
their face, or to determine whether any Mortgage File should include any
assumption agreement, modification agreement, consolidation agreement, extension
agreement, Assignment of Lease, ground lease, UCC financing statement, guaranty,
written assurance or substitution agreement.
The Trustee or its authorized agents shall retain possession and custody of
each Mortgage File in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein.
Section 2.3 Sellers' Repurchase of Mortgage Loans for Document Defects and
Breaches of Representations and Warranties.
(a) If any party hereto discovers that any document constituting a part of
a Mortgage File has not been properly executed, is missing, contains information
that does not conform in any respect with the corresponding information set
forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, or does not appear to be regular on its
face (each, a "Document Defect"), or discovers or receives notice of a breach of
any representation, warranty or covenant relating to any Mortgage Loan set forth
in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the related Additional
Warranty Agreement, as the case may be that may give rise to a repurchase
obligation on the part of the related Seller or the related Additional
Warranting Party, as the case may be (a "Breach"), such party shall give prompt
written notice to the other parties hereto. Promptly upon becoming aware of any
such Document Defect or Breach, the Trustee shall request that the related
Seller or the related Additional Warranting Party, as applicable, within the
time period provided for in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the
related Additional Warranty Agreement, as applicable; cure such Document Defect
or Breach, as the case may be, in all material respects or repurchase the
affected Mortgage Loan for a cash amount equal to the applicable Purchase Price
(or, in the case of an Additional Warranting Party, equal to such lesser amount
as is provided in the related Additional Warranty Agreement, with the difference
to be covered by the Depositor out of its own funds), all in accordance with the
related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the related Additional Warranty
Agreement, as applicable, provided, however, that, in lieu of effecting any such
repurchase, a Seller or an Additional Warranty Party will be permitted to
deliver a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan and to pay a cash amount equal to
the applicable Substitution Shortfall Amount (or, in the case of an Additional
Warranting Party, equal to such lesser amount as is provided in the related
Additional Warranty Agreement, with the difference to be covered by the
Depositor out of its own funds), subject to the terms and conditions of the
related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or the related Additional Warranty
-59-
Agreement, as the case may be, and this Agreement.
As to any Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Trustee shall
direct the related Seller or related Additional Warranting Party to deliver to
the Trustee for such Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans (with a copy
to the Master Servicer), the related Mortgage File(s) with the related Mortgage
Note(s) endorsed as required by clause (i) of the definition of "Mortgage File".
No substitution may be made in any calendar month after the Determination Date
for such month. Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualifying Substitute
Mortgage Loans after the related date of substitution, and Monthly Payments due
with respect to Deleted Mortgage Loans after the Cut-off Date and on or prior to
the related date of substitution, shall be part of the Trust Fund. Monthly
Payments due with respect to Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loans on or prior to
the related date of substitution, and Monthly Payments due with respect to
Deleted Mortgage Loans after the related date of substitution, shall not be part
of the Trust Fund and will be remitted by the Master Servicer to the related
Seller promptly following receipt.
In any month in which a Seller or an Additional Warranting Party
substitutes one or more Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more
Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer will determine the applicable
Substitution Shortfall Amount. The Trustee shall direct such Seller, or shall
direct such Additional Warranting Party and the Depositor collectively, as the
case may be, to deposit cash equal to such amount into the Collection Account
concurrently with the delivery of the Mortgage File(s) for the Qualifying
Substitute Mortgage Loan(s), without any reimbursement thereof. The Master
Servicer shall give written notice to the Trustee of such deposit promptly
following the occurrence thereof.
If the affected Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased, the Trustee shall
designate the Collection Account as the account to which funds in the amount of
the Purchase Price are to be wired. Any such purchase of a Mortgage Loan shall
be on a whole loan, servicing released basis.
Amounts paid by the Depositor to supplement amounts paid by an Additional
Warranty Party in connection with the repurchase or replacement of any Mortgage
Loan as contemplated by this Section 2.3 shall be deemed to be Repurchase
Proceeds or payments of the related Substitution Shortfall Amount, as
applicable, and shall be paid concurrently with the corresponding payments by
the Additional Warranting Party.
The Trustee shall direct the related Seller to amend the Mortgage Loan
Schedule to reflect the removal of each Deleted Mortgage Loan and, if applicable
the substitution of the Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan(s); and, upon such
amendment, the Trustee shall deliver or cause the delivery of such amended
Mortgage Loan Schedule to the other parties hereto. Upon any such substitution,
the Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan(s) shall be subject to the terms of this
Agreement in all respects.
(b) In connection with any repurchase of or substitution for a Mortgage
Loan contemplated by this Section 2.3, the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the
Special Servicer shall each promptly tender to the related Seller or Additional
Warranting Party, as applicable, upon delivery to each of them of a receipt
executed by such Seller or Additional Warranting Party, as
-60-
applicable, all portions of the Mortgage File and other documents pertaining to
such Mortgage Loan possessed by it, and each document that constitutes a part of
the Mortgage File shall be endorsed or assigned to the extent necessary or
appropriate to the related Seller or the related Additional Warranting Party, as
the case may be, or its designee in the same manner, and pursuant to appropriate
forms of assignment, substantially similar to the manner and forms pursuant to
which documents were previously assigned to the Trustee, but in any event,
without recourse, representation or warranty; provided that such tender by the
Trustee shall be conditioned upon its receipt from the Master Servicer of a
Request for Release.

subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 2.3 shall, in the case of ContiTrade, be
deemed to also be references to the Xxxxx Guarantor, and all notices,
directions, requests and other communications to ContiTrade shall also be
forwarded to the Xxxxx Guarantor.

Agreements and the Xxxxx Guaranty Agreement provide the sole remedies available
to the Certificateholders, or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders,
respecting any Document Defect or Breach.

The Definitive Certificates shall be printed, typewritten, lithographed or
engraved or produced by any combination of these methods or may be produced in
any other manner permitted by the rules of any securities exchange on which any
of the Certificates may be listed, all as determined by the officers executing
such Certificates, as evidenced by their execution thereof.
(b) The REMIC III Regular Certificates will be issued in minimum
denominations of $50,000 (or, in the case of the Class A Certificates, $5,000)
in initial Certificate Principal Balance or Certificate Notional Amount, as
applicable, and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The Residual
Certificates will be issued in minimum Percentage Interests of not less than
10%.
(c) Each Certificate shall, on original issue, be authenticated by the
Trustee or the Authenticating Agent upon the order of the Depositor. No
Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid
for any purpose, unless there appears on such Certificate a certificate of
authentication substantially in the form provided for herein, executed by an
authorized officer of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent, if any, by manual
signature, and such certification upon any Certificate shall be conclusive
evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date
of their authentication. At any time and from time to time after the execution
and delivery of this Agreement, the Depositor may deliver Certificates to the
Trustee for authentication, and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall
authenticate and deliver such Certificates as in this Agreement provided and not
otherwise. In the event that additional Certificates need to be prepared at any
time subsequent to the Closing Date, the Depositor shall prepare, or cause to be
prepared, and deliver, or cause to be delivered, at the Depositor's expense, any
such additional Certificates. With respect to the REMIC III Regular
Certificates, on the Closing Date the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent upon
the order of the Depositor shall authenticate Book-Entry Certificates that are
issued to a Clearing Agency or its nominee as provided in Section 3.6 against
payment of the purchase price thereof.
Section 3.2 Registration. The Trustee initially shall be the registrar in
respect of the Certificates who shall maintain books for the registration and
for the transfer of Certificates (the "Certificate Register"). The Certificate
Registrar may resign or be discharged or removed by the Trustee or the
Certificateholders, and a new successor may be appointed, in accordance with the
procedures and requirements set forth in Sections 7.6 and 7.7 hereof with
respect to the resignation, discharge or removal of the Trustee and the
appointment of a successor Trustee. The Certificate Registrar may appoint, by a
written instrument delivered to the Holders and the Trustee, any trust company
to act as co-registrar under such conditions as the Certificate Registrar may
prescribe; provided that the Certificate Registrar shall not be relieved of any
of its duties or responsibilities hereunder by reason of such appointment.

Section 3.3 Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
(a) A Certificate may be transferred by the Holder thereof, subject to the
restrictions set forth below, only upon presentation and surrender of such
Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office (or the New York Presenting Office, if
any) duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly
executed by such Holder or such Holder's duly authorized attorney in such form
as shall be satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar. Upon the transfer of any
Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Trustee shall
execute, and the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and
deliver to the transferee, one or more new Certificates of the same Class, in
authorized denominations, evidencing in the aggregate the same aggregate
Certificate Principal Balance, Certificate Notional Amount or Percentage
Interest, as the case may be, as the Certificate being transferred. No service
charge shall be made to a Certificateholder for any registration of transfer of
Certificates, but 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 registration or transfer of Certificates. The Trustee may
decline to accept any request for a registration of transfer of any Certificate
during the period beginning five calendar days prior to any Distribution Date.
(b) A Certificate may be exchanged by the Holder thereof for any number of
new Certificates of the same Class, in authorized denominations, representing in
the aggregate the same aggregate Certificate Principal Balance, Certificate
Notional Amount or Percentage Interest, as the case may be, as the Certificate
surrendered, upon surrender of the Certificate to be exchanged at the Corporate
Trust Office (or New York Presenting Office, if any) duly endorsed or
accompanied by a written instrument of exchange duly executed by such Holder or
such Holder's duly authorized attorney in such form as is satisfactory to the
Certificate Registrar. Certificates delivered upon any such exchange will
evidence the same obligations, and will be entitled to the same rights and
privileges, as the Certificates surrendered. No service charge shall be made to
a Certificateholder for any exchange of Certificates, but 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 exchange of
Certificates. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the
Trustee shall execute and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall
authenticate, date and deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder
making the exchange is entitled to receive.
(c) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Non-Registered
Certificate or interest therein shall be made unless that transfer, sale, pledge
or other disposition is exempt from the registration and/or qualification
requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or
is otherwise made in accordance with the Securities Act and such state
securities laws. If a transfer of any Non-Registered Certificate held as a
Definitive Certificate is to be made without registration under the Securities
Act (other than in connection with the initial issuance of the Certificates or a
transfer of such Non-Registered Certificate by the Depositor or one of its
Affiliates), then the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register such
transfer unless it receives (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon)
either: (i) a certificate from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such
transfer substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D-1 hereto and a
certificate from such Certificateholder's prospective transferee substantially
in the form attached either as Exhibit D-2A hereto or as Exhibit D-2B hereto; or
(ii)
-64-
an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee to the effect that such
transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act (which
Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the
Certificate Registrar in their respective capacities as such), together with the
written certification(s) as to the facts surrounding such transfer from the
Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer and/or such
Certificateholder's prospective Transferee on which such Opinion of Counsel is
based. If a transfer of any interest in a Non-Registered Certificate that
constitutes a Book-Entry Certificate is to be made without registration under
the Securities Act (other than in connection with the initial issuance of the
Certificates or a transfer of any interest in such Non-Registered Certificate by
the Depositor or any of its Affiliates), then the Certificate Owner desiring to
effect such transfer shall be required to obtain either (i) a certificate from
such Certificate Owner's prospective Transferee substantially in the form
attached as Exhibit D-3A hereto or as Exhibit D-3B hereto, or (ii) an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under
the Securities Act. None of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Certificate
Registrar is obligated to register or qualify any Class of Non-Registered
Certificates under the Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any
action not otherwise required under this Agreement to permit the transfer of any
Non-Registered Certificate or interest therein without registration or
qualification. Any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner desiring to effect a
transfer of Non-Registered Certificates or interests therein shall, and does
hereby agree to, indemnify, the Depositor, the Underwriter, the Trustee, the
Fiscal Agent, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate
Registrar against any liability that may result if the transfer is not exempt
from such registration or qualification or is not made in accordance with such
federal and state laws.
(d) No transfer of a Subordinate or Residual Certificate or any interest
therein shall be made (A) to any employee benefit plan or other retirement
arrangement, including individual retirement accounts and annuities, Xxxxx plans
and collective investment funds and separate accounts in which such plans,
accounts or arrangements are invested, including, without limitation, insurance
company general accounts, that is subject to ERISA or the Code (each, a "Plan"),
or (B) to any Person who is directly or indirectly purchasing such Certificate
or interest therein on behalf of, as named fiduciary of, as trustee of, or with
assets of a Plan, unless: (i) in the case of a Subordinate Certificate that
constitutes a Book-Entry Certificate, the purchase and holding of such
Certificate or interest therein is exempt from the prohibited transaction
provisions of Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code under Sections I
and III of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60; or (ii) in the case of
a Subordinate or Residual Certificate held as a Definitive Certificate, the
prospective Transferee provides the Certificate Registrar with a certification
of facts and an Opinion of Counsel which establish to the satisfaction of the
Trustee that such transfer will not result in a violation of Section 406 of
ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or result in the imposition of an excise tax
under Section 4975 of the Code or subject the Depositor, the Trustee, the Fiscal
Agent, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to any obligation in addition
to those undertaken in this Agreement. Each Person who acquires any Subordinate
or Residual Certificate or interest therein (unless it shall have acquired such
Certificate or interest therein from the Depositor or an Affiliate thereof or
unless it shall have delivered to the Certificate Registrar the certification of
facts and Opinion of Counsel referred to in clause (ii) of the preceding
sentence) shall be required to deliver to the Certificate Registrar (or, in the
case of an interest in a Subordinate Certificate that constitutes a Book-Entry
Certificate, to
-65-
the Certificate Owner that is transferring such interest) a certification to the
effect that: (i) it is neither a Plan nor any Person who is directly or
indirectly purchasing such Certificate or interest therein on behalf of, as
named fiduciary of, as trustee of, or with assets of a Plan; or (ii) that the
purchase and holding of such Certificate or interest therein by such person is
exempt from the prohibited transaction provisions of Section 406 of ERISA and
Section 4975 of the Code under Sections I and III of Prohibited Transaction
Class Exemption 95-60.
(e) (i) Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such
Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and to
have irrevocably authorized the Trustee under clause (ii)(A) below to deliver
payments to a Person other than such Person and to have irrevocably authorized
the Trustee under clause (ii)(B) below to negotiate the terms of any mandatory
sale and to execute all instruments of Transfer and to do all other things
necessary in connection with any such sale. The rights of each Person acquiring
any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the
following provisions:
(A) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and a United States
Person and shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change or impending
change in its status as a Permitted Transferee.
(B) In connection with any proposed Transfer of any Ownership Interest
in a Residual Certificate, the Trustee shall require delivery to it, and no
Transfer of any Residual Certificate shall be registered until the Trustee
receives, an affidavit and agreement substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit E-1 (a "Transfer Affidavit and Agreement") from the
proposed Transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee,
representing and warranting, among other things, that such Transferee is a
Permitted Transferee, that it is not acquiring its Ownership Interest in
the Residual Certificate that is the subject of the proposed Transfer as a
nominee, trustee or agent for any Person that is not a Permitted
Transferee, that for so long as it retains its Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a Permitted Transferee,
that it is a United States Person, and that it has reviewed the provisions
of this Section 3.3(e) and agrees to be bound by them.
(C) Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement
by a proposed Transferee under clause (B) above, if the Trustee has actual
knowledge that the proposed Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee or is
not a United States Person, no Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate to such proposed Transferee shall be effected.
(D) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate shall agree (1) to require a Transfer Affidavit and
Agreement from any prospective Transferee to whom such Person attempts
-66-
to transfer its Ownership Interest in such Residual Certificate and (2) not
to transfer its Ownership Interest in such Residual Certificate unless it
provides to the Trustee a certificate substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit E-2 stating that, among other things, it has no actual
knowledge that such prospective Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee or
is not a United States Person.
(E) Each Person holding or acquiring an Ownership Interest in a
Residual Certificate, by purchasing an Ownership Interest in such
Certificate, agrees to give the Trustee written notice that it is a
"pass-through interest holder" within the meaning of temporary Treasury
regulation Section 1.67-3T(a)(2)(i)(A) immediately upon acquiring an
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, if it is, or is holding an
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate on behalf of, a "pass-through
interest holder".
(ii) (A) If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual
Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 3.3(e) or if any
Holder of a Residual Certificate shall lose its status as a Permitted Transferee
or a United States Person, then the last preceding Holder of such Residual
Certificate that was in compliance with the provisions of this Section 3.3(e)
shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights as Holder
thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such Transfer of such
Residual Certificate. None of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer or the Certificate Registrar shall be under any liability to any Person
for any registration of Transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not
permitted by this Section 3.3(e) or for making any payments due on such
Certificate to the Holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to
such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement.
(B) If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual
Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section 3.3(e), or if
any Holder of a Residual Certificate shall lose its status as a Permitted
Transferee or a United States Person, and to the extent that the
retroactive restoration of the rights of the prior Holder of such Residual
Certificate as described in clause (ii)(A) above shall be invalid, illegal
or unenforceable, then the Trustee shall have the right, without notice to
the Holder or any prior Holder of such Residual Certificate, but not the
obligation, to sell such Residual Certificate to a purchaser selected by
the Trustee on such terms as the Trustee may choose. Such non-complying
Holder shall promptly endorse and deliver such Residual Certificate in
accordance with the instructions of the Trustee. Such purchaser may be the
Trustee itself or any Affiliate of the Trustee. The proceeds of such sale,
net of the commissions (which may include commissions payable to the
Trustee or its Affiliates), expenses and taxes due, if any, will be
remitted by the Trustee to such noncomplying Holder. The terms and
conditions of any sale under this clause (ii)(B) shall be determined in the
sole discretion of the Trustee, and the Trustee shall not be liable to any
Person having an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate as a result
of its exercise of such discretion.
-67-
(iii) The Trustee shall make available to the Internal Revenue Service and
those Persons specified by the REMIC Provisions, all information necessary to
compute any tax imposed (A) as a result of the Transfer of an Ownership Interest
in a Residual Certificate to any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee,
including the information described in Treasury regulations sections
1.860D-1(b)(5) and 1.860E-2(a)(5) with respect to the "excess inclusions" of
such Residual Certificate and (B) as a result of any regulated investment
company, real estate investment trust, common trust fund, partnership, trust,
estate or organization described in Section 1381 of the Code that holds an
Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate having as among its record holders
at any time any Person which is not a Permitted Transferee. The Person holding
such Ownership Interest shall be responsible for the reasonable compensation of
the Trustee for providing such information.
(iv) The provisions of this Section 3.3(e) set forth prior to this
subsection (iv) may be modified, added to or eliminated, provided that there
shall have been delivered to the Trustee and the Depositor the following:
(A) written notification from each Rating Agency to the effect that
the modification of, addition to or elimination of such provisions will not
cause such Rating Agency to qualify, downgrade or withdraw its then current
rating of any Class of Certificates; and
(B) an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Trustee and the Depositor, to the effect that such modification of,
addition to or elimination of such provisions will not cause any of REMIC
I, REMIC II or REMIC III to (x) cease to qualify as a REMIC or (y) be
subject to an entity-level tax caused by the Transfer of any Residual
Certificate to a Person which is not a Permitted Transferee, or cause a
Person other than the prospective Transferee to be subject to a REMIC
related tax caused by the Transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Person
which is not a Permitted Transferee.
(f) The Trustee shall have no liability to the Trust arising from a
transfer of any Certificate in reliance upon a certification, ruling or Opinion
of Counsel described in this Section 3.3; provided, however, that the Trustee
shall not register the transfer of a Residual Certificate if it has actual
knowledge that the proposed transferee does not meet the qualifications of a
permitted Holder of a Residual Certificate as set forth in Section 3.3(e).
Neither the Trustee nor the Certificate Registrar shall have any obligation or
duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restriction on
transfer or exchange of Certificates or any interest therein imposed under this
Article III or under applicable law other than to require delivery of the
certifications and/or opinions described in this Article III; provided, however,
that the Trustee shall not register the transfer of a Residual Certificate if it
has actual knowledge that the proposed transferee does not meet the
qualifications of a permitted Holder of a Residual Certificate as set forth in
Section 3.3(e). The Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall have no
liability for transfers (including without limitation transfers made through the
book-entry facilities of the Depository or between or among Participants or
Certificate Owners) made in violation of applicable restrictions, provided that
the Trustee and Certificate Registrar have satisfied their
-68-
respective duties expressly set forth in Sections 3.3(c), 3.3(d) and 3.3(e).
(g) All Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be
physically canceled by the Certificate Registrar, and the Certificate Registrar
shall hold such canceled Certificates in accordance with its standard
procedures.
(h) The Certificate Registrar shall provide notice to the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer and the Depositor of each transfer of a Certificate and,
upon written request, provide each such Person with an updated copy of the
Certificate Register within a reasonable period of time following receipt of
such request.
(i) Unless and until it is exchanged in whole for the individual
Certificates represented thereby, a Global Certificate representing all of the
Certificates of a Class may not be transferred, except as a whole by the
Depository to a nominee of the Depository or by a nominee of the Depository to
the Depository or another nominee of the Depository or by the Depository or any
such nominee to a successor Clearing Agency or a nominee of such successor
Clearing Agency, and no such transfer to any such other Person may be
registered; provided that this subsection (i) shall not prohibit any transfer of
a Certificate of a Class that is issued in exchange for a Global Certificate of
the same Class pursuant to Section 3.8 below. Nothing in this subsection (i)
shall prohibit or render ineffective any transfer of a beneficial interest in a
Global Certificate effected in accordance with the other provisions of this
Section 3.3.
Section 3.4 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If (a) any
mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee, or the Trustee receives
evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any
Certificate and (b) except in the case of a mutilated Certificate so
surrendered, there is delivered to the Trustee such security or indemnity as may
be required by it to save it harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the
Trustee that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the
Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of
any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of
like tenor and interest in the Trust. In connection with the issuance of any new
Certificate under this Section 3.4, the Trustee may require the payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the
Trustee) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to
this Section 3.4 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of
ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen
or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.
Section 3.5 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to presentation of a Certificate
for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Fiscal Agent, the Trustee, the Operating Adviser and any agent of
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Fiscal Agent, the
Trustee or the Operating Adviser may treat the Person in whose name any
Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of
receiving distributions as provided in this Agreement and for all other purposes
whatsoever, and neither the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee,
the Fiscal Agent, the Operating Adviser nor any agent of the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer the Fiscal Agent, the Trustee or the Operating Adviser
shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
-69-
Section 3.6 Book-Entry Certificates.
(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Class of REMIC III Regular
Certificates, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form of one or more
physical certificates (collectively, as to any Class of Book-Entry Certificates,
a "Global Certificate") representing such Class, to be delivered to the Trustee,
as custodian for The Depository Trust Company (the "Depository"), the initial
Clearing Agency, by, or on behalf of, the Depositor. The Global Certificates
shall initially be registered on the Certificate Register in the name of Cede &
Co., the nominee of the Depository, as the initial Clearing Agency, and no
Certificate Owner will receive a Definitive Certificate representing such
Certificate Owners's interest in the Book-Entry Certificates, except as provided
in Section 3.8. Unless and until Definitive Certificates have been issued to the
Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 3.8:
(i) the provisions of this Section 3.6 shall be in full force and
effect with respect to each such Class;
(ii) the Depositor, 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 Certificates) as the authorized
representative of the Certificate Owners;
(iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 3.6 conflict
with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section
3.6 shall control with respect to each such Class; and
(iv) the rights of the Certificate Owners of each such Class shall be
exercised only through the Clearing Agency and the applicable Participants
and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between
such Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency, the Participants and/or
the Indirect Participants. Pursuant to the Depository Agreement, unless and
until Certificates are issued pursuant to Section 3.8, the initial Clearing
Agency will make book-entry transfers among the Participants and receive
and transmit distributions of principal and interest on the related
Certificates to such Participants.
(b) For purposes of any provision of this Agreement requiring or permitting
actions with the consent of, or at the direction of, Holders of the Certificates
evidencing a specified percentage of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of
Certificates, such direction or consent may be given by the Clearing Agency at
the direction of Certificate Owners owning Certificates evidencing the requisite
percentage of principal amount of Certificates. The Clearing Agency may take
conflicting actions with respect to the Certificates to the extent that such
actions are taken on behalf of the Certificate Owners.
Section 3.7 Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever notice or other
communication to the Certificateholders is required under this Agreement, unless
and until Definitive Certificates shall have been issued to the related
Certificateholders pursuant to Section 3.8, the Trustee shall give all such
notices and communications specified herein to be given to Holders of the
Book-Entry Certificates to the Clearing Agency which shall give such notices and
-70-
communications to the related Participants in accordance with its applicable
rules, regulations and procedures.
Section 3.8 Definitive Certificates.
(a) Definitive Certificates will be issued to the owners of beneficial
interests in a Class of Book-Entry Certificates or their nominees if (i) the
Depository notifies the Depositor and the Trustee in writing that the Depository
is unwilling or unable to continue as Clearing Agency for the Book-Entry
Certificates and a qualifying successor Clearing Agency is not appointed by the
Depositor within 90 days thereof, or (ii) the Depositor, at its option, elects
to terminate the book-entry system through the Clearing Agency. Upon notice of
the occurrence of either of the events described in the preceding sentence, the
Trustee shall notify all Certificate Owners, through the Clearing Agency, of the
occurrence of the event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to
such Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Trustee of
the Book-Entry Certificates by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration
instructions from the Clearing Agency for registration, the Trustee shall
execute, authenticate and deliver the Definitive Certificates. None of the
Depositor, the Fiscal Agent or the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in
delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be
protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive
Certificates, all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be
performed by the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to be imposed upon and
performed by the Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such
Definitive Certificates, and the Trustee shall recognize the Holders of
Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.
(b) Distributions of principal and interest on the Definitive Certificates
shall be made by the Trustee directly to holders of Definitive Certificates in
accordance with the procedures set forth in this Agreement.
ARTICLE IV
ADVANCES
Section 4.1 P&I Advances by Master Servicer.
(a) On or before 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on each P&I Advance Date,
the Master Servicer shall either (i) deposit into the Distribution Account (or,
to the extent made to cover unpaid Servicing Fees, in the Collection Account)
from its own funds an amount equal to the aggregate amount of P&I Advances, if
any, to be made in respect of the related Distribution Date, (ii) apply amounts
held in the Collection Account for future distribution to Certificateholders in
subsequent months in discharge of any such obligation to make P&I Advances, or
(iii) make P&I Advances in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii)
aggregating the total amount of P&I Advances to be made; provided that, if Late
Collections (net of related Workout Fees) of the delinquent principal and
interest payments for which P&I Advances are to be made for the related
Distribution Date, are on deposit in the Collection Account and available to
make such Advances, the Master Servicer shall utilize such Late Collections to
make such Advances pursuant to clause
-71-
(ii) above. Any amounts held in the Collection Account for future distribution
and so used to make P&I Advances shall be appropriately reflected in the Master
Servicer's records and replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the
Collection Account on or before the next succeeding Determination Date (to the
extent not previously replaced through the deposit of Late Collections of the
delinquent principal and interest in respect of which such P&I Advances were
made). If, as of 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on any P&I Advance Date, the
Master Servicer shall not have made any P&I Advance required to be made on such
date pursuant to this Section 4.1(a) (and shall not have delivered to the
Trustee the requisite Officer's Certificate and documentation related to a
determination of nonrecoverability of a P&I Advance), then the Trustee shall
provide notice of such failure to a Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer by
facsimile transmission sent to telecopy no. (000) 000-0000 (or such alternative
number provided by the Master Servicer to the Trustee in writing) and by
telephone at telephone no. (000) 000-0000 (or such alternative number provided
by the Master Servicer to the Trustee in writing) as soon as possible, but in
any event before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on such day.
(b) The aggregate amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Master Servicer
in respect of the Mortgage Loans (including without limitation Balloon Mortgage
Loans delinquent as to their respective Balloon Payments and REO Mortgage Loans)
for any Distribution Date shall equal, subject to Section 4.4 below, the
aggregate of all Monthly Payments (other than Balloon Payments) and any Assumed
Monthly Payments, in each case net of related Workout Fees payable hereunder,
that were due or deemed due, as the case may be, in respect thereof on their
respective Due Dates during the related Collection Period and that were not paid
by or on behalf of the related Mortgagors or otherwise collected as of the close
of business on the last day of the related Collection Period; provided that, if
an Appraisal Reduction exists with respect to any Required Appraisal Loan, then,
in the event of subsequent delinquencies thereon, the P&I Advance in respect of
such Required Appraisal Loan for the related Distribution Date shall be reduced
to equal the product of (i) the amount of the P&I Advance for such Required
Appraisal Loan for such Distribution Date without regard to this proviso,
multiplied by (ii) a fraction, expressed as a percentage, the numerator of which
is equal to the Stated Principal Balance of such Required Appraisal Loan
immediately prior to such Distribution Date, net of the related Appraisal
Reduction, if any, and the denominator of which is equal to the Stated Principal
Balance of such Required Appraisal Loan immediately prior to such Distribution
Date.
Section 4.2 Servicing Advances.
(a) The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Fiscal
Agent shall each make Servicing Advances to the extent provided in this
Agreement, except to the extent that the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the
Fiscal Agent determines, as applicable, in accordance with Section 4.4 below,
that any such Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. Such determination
shall be conclusive and binding on the Trustee and the Certificateholders.
(b) No more frequently than once per calendar month, the Special Servicer
may require the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall be obligated,
subject to the second following paragraph, to reimburse the Special Servicer for
any Servicing Advances made by but not previously reimbursed to the Special
Servicer, and to pay the Special Servicer interest thereon at the Advance Rate
from the date made to, but not including, the date of reimbursement. Such
-72-
reimbursement and any accompanying payment of interest shall be made within ten
(10) days of the request therefor by wire transfer of immediately available
funds to an account designated by the Special Servicer. Upon the Master
Servicer's reimbursement to the Special Servicer of any Servicing Advance and
payment to the Special Servicer of interest thereon, all in accordance with this
Section 4.2(b), the Master Servicer shall for all purposes of this Agreement be
deemed to have made such Servicing Advance at the same time as the Special
Servicer originally made such Advance, and accordingly, the Master Servicer
shall be entitled to reimbursement for such Advance, together with interest
thereon, at the same time, in the same manner and to the same extent as the
Master Servicer would otherwise have been entitled if it had actually made such
Servicing Advance.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if
the Special Servicer is required under this Agreement to make any Servicing
Advance but does not desire to do so, the Special Servicer may, in its sole
discretion, request that the Master Servicer make such Advance, such request to
be made in writing and in a timely manner that does not materially and adversely
affect the interests of any Certificateholder and to be accompanied by such
additional information regarding the circumstances surrounding such Advance as
the Master Servicer may reasonably request. Subject to the following paragraph,
the Master Servicer shall have the obligation to make any such Servicing Advance
that it is requested by the Special Servicer to make within ten (10) days of the
Master Servicer's receipt of such request. The Special Servicer shall be
relieved of any obligations with respect to an Advance that it requests the
Master Servicer to make (regardless of whether or not the Master Servicer shall
make such Advance). The Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for
any Servicing Advance made by it at the direction of the Special Servicer,
together with Advance Interest thereon, at the same time, in the same manner and
to the same extent as the Master Servicer is entitled with respect to any other
Servicing Advance made thereby.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.2(b), the Master
Servicer shall not be required to make at the Special Servicer's direction, or
to reimburse the Special Servicer for, any Servicing Advance if the Master
Servicer determines (in its good faith and reasonable judgment) that the
Servicing Advance which the Special Servicer is directing the Master Servicer to
make or to reimburse to the Special Servicer hereunder, although not
characterized by the Special Servicer as a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, is
or would be, if made, a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The Master Servicer
shall notify the Special Servicer in writing of such determination. Such notice
shall not obligate the Special Servicer to make any such proposed Servicing
Advance. The Special Servicer shall promptly provide the Master Servicer with
any information that comes into its possession that constitutes evidence that
any future Advances made with respect to any Mortgage Loan or REO Property would
be Nonrecoverable Advances.
Section 4.3 Advances by Trustee and Fiscal Agent.
(a) To the extent that the Master Servicer fails to make a P&I Advance by
11:00 a.m. on the Business Day following the related P&I Advance Date (other
than a P&I Advance that the Master Servicer determines is a Nonrecoverable
Advance), the Trustee shall make such P&I Advance unless the Trustee determines
that such P&I Advance, if made, would
-73-
be a Nonrecoverable Advance. To the extent that the Trustee is required
hereunder to make P&I Advances, it shall deposit the amount thereof in the
Distribution Account (or, to the extent made to cover unpaid Servicing Fees, in
the Collection Account) on the relevant Distribution Date.
(b) To the extent that the Trustee fails to make a P&I Advance required to
be made by the Trustee hereunder on any Distribution Date (other than a P&I
Advance that the Trustee determines is a Nonrecoverable Advance), the Fiscal
Agent will advance such P&I Advance unless the Fiscal Agent determines that any
such P&I Advance, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. To the extent that
the Fiscal Agent is required hereunder to make P&I Advances, it shall deposit
the amount thereof in the Distribution Account (or, to the extent made to cover
unpaid Servicing Fees, in the Collection Account) on such Distribution Date.
(c) To the extent that the Master Servicer fails to make a Servicing
Advance by the date such Servicing Advance is required to be made (other than a
Servicing Advance that the Master Servicer determines is a Nonrecoverable
Advance), and a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives notice thereof the
Trustee shall make such Servicing Advance promptly, but in any event, not later
than five Business Days after notice thereof, unless the Trustee determines that
such Servicing Advance, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable Advance.
(d) To the extent that the Trustee fails to make a Servicing Advance
required to be made by the Trustee hereunder by the later of (i) the date such
Servicing Advance is required to be made and (ii) five Business Days after the
date the Trustee knows or should know, pursuant to subsection (c) above, that
such Servicing Advance has not been made by the Master Servicer (other than a
Servicing Advance that the Trustee determines is a Nonrecoverable Advance), the
Fiscal Agent will advance such Servicing Advance, unless the Fiscal Agent
determines that such Servicing Advance, if made, would be a Nonrecoverable
Advance.
The initial Trustee's failure to make any Advance required to be made by it
hereunder shall not constitute a default by the initial Trustee hereunder if the
initial Fiscal Agent makes such Advance.
Section 4.4 Evidence of Nonrecoverability. Notwithstanding anything herein
to the contrary, no Advance shall be required to be made hereunder if such
Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance. In addition,
Nonrecoverable Advances shall be reimbursable pursuant to Section 5.2 out of
general collections on the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties on deposit in the
Collection Account. The determination by the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer or, if applicable, the Trustee or the Fiscal Agent, that it has made a
Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed Advance, if made, would constitute a
Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be evidenced by an Officer's Certificate delivered
promptly (and, in any event, in the case of a proposed P&I Advance to be made by
the Master Servicer, no less than one Business Day prior to the related P&I
Advance Date) to the Trustee (or, if applicable, retained thereby) and the
Depositor, setting forth the basis for such determination, together with (if
such determination is prior to the liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan or
REO Property) a copy of an Appraisal or internal evaluation of the related
Mortgaged Property or REO Property, as the case may be, which shall have been
performed within the twelve months preceding such determination, and further
accompanied by any other information that the Master Servicer or the
-74-
Special Servicer may have obtained and that supports such determination. If such
an Appraisal or internal evaluation shall not have been required and performed
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as the case may be, may, subject to its reasonable and good faith
determination that such Appraisal will demonstrate the nonrecoverability of the
related Advance, obtain an Appraisal for such purpose at the expense of the
Trust payable out of the Collection Account. The Trustee and the Fiscal Agent
shall each be entitled to rely on any determination of nonrecoverability that
may have been made by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer with respect
to a particular Advance, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to rely on
any determination of nonrecoverability that may have been made by the Special
Servicer with respect to a particular Advance.
Section 4.5 Advance Interest. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer,
the Trustee and the Fiscal Agent shall each be entitled to receive interest at
the Advance Rate in effect from time to time, accrued on the amount of each
Advance made thereby (out of its own funds) for so long as such Advance is
outstanding (or, if any P&I Advance is required to be made in respect of a
delinquent Monthly Payment on any Mortgage Loan prior to the end of the grace
period for such Monthly Payment, for so long as such P&I Advance is outstanding
following the end of such grace period), payable: first, out of Penalty Charges
received on the Mortgage Loan (including, without limitation, an REO Mortgage
Loan as to which such P&I Advance was made); and, then, once such Advance has
been reimbursed, out of general collections on the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties.
Section 4.6 Fiscal Agent Termination Event. "Fiscal Agent Termination
Event," wherever used herein, means any one of the following events:
(i) Any failure by the Fiscal Agent to remit to the Trustee when due
any required Advances; or
(ii) A decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority

present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law
for the appointment of a conservator, receiver, liquidator, trustee or
similar official 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 Fiscal Agent and such decree or order shall have remained in force
undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days; or
(iii) The Fiscal Agent shall consent to the appointment of a
conservator, receiver, liquidator, trustee or similar official in any
bankruptcy, insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and
liabilities or similar proceedings or relating to the Fiscal Agent or of or
relating to all or substantially all of its property; or
(iv) The Fiscal Agent shall admit in writing its inability to pay its
debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of
any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization statute, make an
assignment for the benefit of its creditors, voluntarily suspend payment of
its obligations, or take any corporate action
-75-
in furtherance of the foregoing; or
(v) Either Rating Agency shall indicate its intent to reduce, qualify
or withdraw the outstanding rating of any Class of Certificates because the
prospective financial condition or capacity to make Advances of the Fiscal
Agent is insufficient to maintain such rating; or
(vi) The long-term unsecured debt of the Fiscal Agent is rated below
"AA" or "Aa2", as applicable, by either Rating Agency.
Section 4.7 Procedure Upon Termination Event.
(a) On the date specified in a written notice of termination given to the
Fiscal Agent pursuant to Section 7.6(c), all authority, power and rights of the
Fiscal Agent under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or
otherwise, shall terminate and a successor Fiscal Agent shall be appointed by
the Trustee, with the consent of the Depositor; provided that in no event shall
the termination of the Fiscal Agent be effective until Rating Agency
Confirmation shall have been obtained with respect to a successor fiscal agent.
The Fiscal Agent agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the
termination of the Fiscal Agent's responsibilities and rights hereunder as
Fiscal Agent.
(b) Notwithstanding the termination of its activities as Fiscal Agent, the
terminated Fiscal Agent shall continue to be entitled to reimbursement of its
Advances (with Advance Interest thereon) to the extent provided in Section 5.2
but only to the extent such reimbursement relates to the period up to and
including the date on which the Fiscal Agent's termination is effective. The
Fiscal Agent shall be reimbursed for all amounts owed to it hereunder on or
prior to the effective date of its termination from amounts on deposit in the
Collection Account.
Section 4.8 Merger or Consolidation of Fiscal Agent. Any Person into which
the Fiscal Agent may be merged or consolidated, or any Person resulting from any
merger, conversion, other change in form or consolidation to which the Fiscal
Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Fiscal
Agent, shall be the successor of the Fiscal Agent 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 that
(i) the successor to the Fiscal Agent or resulting Person shall have a net worth
of not less than $100,000,000, (ii) such successor or resulting Person shall be
satisfactory to the Trustee, (iii) such successor or resulting Person shall

performed or observed by the Fiscal Agent under this Agreement from and after
the date of such agreement, (iv) the Rating Agencies shall be given prior
written notice of the identity of the proposed successor or resulting Person and
the Rating Agencies shall have provided Rating Agency Confirmation, and (v) the
Fiscal Agent shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an
Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the Trustee (which opinion shall be at the
expense of the Fiscal Agent) stating that all conditions precedent to such
action under this Section 4.8 have been completed and such action
-76-
is permitted by and complies with the terms of this Section 4.8.
Section 4.9 Limitation on Liability of the Fiscal Agent and Others. Neither
the Fiscal Agent nor any of the directors, officers, employees, agents or
Controlling Persons of the Fiscal Agent shall be under any liability to the
Certificateholders, the Depositor, or the Trustee for any action taken or for
refraining from the taking of any action in good faith, using reasonable
business judgment, pursuant to this Agreement; provided that this provision
shall not protect the Fiscal Agent or any such person against any liability
which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
negligence in its performance of duties under this Agreement. The Fiscal Agent
and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Fiscal Agent may rely in
good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and
submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Fiscal
Agent shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any
legal action which is not incidental to its obligations under this Agreement.
The provisions of this Section 4.9 shall survive the resignation or removal of
the Fiscal Agent and the termination of this Agreement.
Section 4.10 Indemnification of Fiscal Agent. The Fiscal Agent and each of
its directors, officers, employees and agents shall be indemnified and held
harmless by the Trust out of the Collection Account against any and all claims,
losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments
and any other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses incurred in connection with
any legal action relating to this Agreement, other than any loss, liability or
expense incurred by reason of a breach on the part of the Fiscal Agent of any of
its representations, warranties or covenants contained herein or the Fiscal
Agent's willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of
duties hereunder. The Fiscal Agent shall immediately notify the Depositor and
the Trustee if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Section
4.10 entitling the Fiscal Agent, its directors, officers, employees or agents to
indemnification hereunder, whereupon the Depositor shall assume the defense of
any such claim (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Fiscal Agent) and
pay out of the Collection Account all expenses in connection therewith,
including reasonable counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy out
of the Collection Account any judgment or decree which may be entered against it
or them in respect of such claim. Any failure to so notify the Depositor shall
not affect any rights the Fiscal Agent, its directors, officers, employees or
agents may have to indemnification under this Section 4.10, unless the
Depositor's defense of such claim is materially prejudiced thereby. The
indemnification provided herein shall survive the resignation or removal of the
Fiscal Agent and the termination of this Agreement.

in accordance with the Servicing Standard, applicable law and the terms of the
related Mortgage Loans.

ARTICLE VI
DISTRIBUTIONS
Section 6.1 Distributions Generally.
(a) All distributions made with respect to each Class on each Distribution
Date shall be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates in such
Class based on their respective Percentage Interests. Except as otherwise
provided below, all such distributions with respect to each Class on each
Distribution Date shall be made to the Certificateholders of the respective
Class of record at the close of business on the related Record Date and shall be
made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of any such
Certificateholder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities
therefor, if such Certificateholder shall have provided the Trustee with wiring
instructions on or before the related Record Date (which wiring instructions may
be in the form of a standing order applicable to all subsequent Distribution
Dates) or otherwise by check mailed to the address of such Certificateholder as
it appears in the Certificate Register. The final distribution on each
Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of
any Realized Loss or Expense Loss previously allocated to such Certificate) will
be made in like manner, but only upon presentation and surrender of such
Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar or such other location
specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution. Any
distribution that is to be made with respect to a Certificate in reimbursement
of a Realized Loss or Expense Loss previously allocated thereto, which
reimbursement is to occur after the date on which such Certificate is
surrendered as contemplated by the preceding sentence, will be made by check
mailed to the address of the Certificateholder that surrendered such Certificate
at such address as last appeared in the Certificate Registrar or to any other
address of which the Trustee was subsequently notified in writing.
(b) Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be
paid to the Depository, as Holder thereof, and the Depository shall be
responsible for crediting the amount of such distribution to the accounts of its
Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each
Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to the
Certificate Owners that it represents and to each Indirect Participant for which
it acts as agent. Each Participant and Indirect Participant shall be responsible
for disbursing funds to the Certificate Owners that it represents. None of the
Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer shall have any responsibility therefor except as otherwise
provided by this Agreement or applicable law.
-87-
(c) The rights of the Certificateholders to receive distributions from the
proceeds of the Trust Fund in respect of their Certificates, and all rights and
interests of the Certificateholders in and to such distributions, shall be as
set forth in this Agreement. Neither the Holders of any Class of Certificates
nor any party hereto shall in any way be responsible or liable to the Holders of
any other Class of Certificates in respect of amounts properly previously
distributed on the Certificates. Distributions in reimbursement of Realized
Losses and Expense Losses previously allocated to a Class of Certificates shall
not constitute distributions of principal and shall not result in a reduction of
the related Class Principal Balance.

(ii), (v), (viii), (xi), (xiv), (xvii), (xx) and (xxiii) above with respect to
any Class of Subordinate Certificates, will be so made to the Holders thereof,
up to an amount equal to the entire then outstanding Class Principal Balance of
such Class of Certificates, and without regard to the Aggregate Principal
Distribution Amount for such date. References to "remaining Aggregate Principal
Distribution Amount" in any of clauses (ii), (v), (viii), (xi), (xiv), (xvii),
(xx) and (xxiii) above, in connection with the payments of principal to be made
to the Holders of any Class of Subordinate Certificates, shall be to the
Aggregate Principal Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date, net of any
payments of principal made in respect thereof to the Holders of each Class of
Principal Balance Certificates that have a higher Payment Priority.
(b) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall withdraw any amounts then
on deposit in the Distribution Account that represent Prepayment Premiums
collected in respect of Group 1 Loans during or prior to the related Collection
Period and shall distribute such amounts, in each case, subject to available
funds, as additional interest, as follows: The Holders of the respective Classes
of Principal Balance Certificates then entitled to distributions of principal
from the Principal Distribution Amount in respect of Loan Group 1 for such
Distribution Date (other than, if applicable, the Class A-2 Certificates), will
be entitled to an aggregate amount (allocable among such Classes, if more than
one, as described below) equal to the product of (i) the amount of the subject
Prepayment Premium, multiplied by (ii) the lesser of (A) 25% and (B) a fraction,
expressed as a percentage, the numerator of which is equal to the excess, if
any, of the then current Pass-Through Rate applicable to the most senior of such
Classes of Certificates then outstanding (or, in the case of two or more Classes
of Class A Certificates, the one with the earliest payment priority), over the
relevant Discount Rate (as defined below), and the denominator of which is equal
to the excess, if any, of the Mortgage Rate for the prepaid Group
-98-
1 Loan, over the relevant Discount Rate. If there is more than one Class of
Principal Balance Certificates (other than the Class A-2 Certificates) entitled
to distributions of principal from the Principal Distribution Amount for Loan
Group 1 for such Distribution Date, the aggregate amount described in the
preceding sentence shall be allocated among such Classes on a pro rata basis in
accordance with the relative sizes of such distributions of principal. Any
portion of such Prepayment Premium that is not so distributed to the Holders of
such Principal Balance Certificates will be distributed to the Holders of the
Class IO-1 Certificates.
On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall withdraw any amounts then on
deposit in the Distribution Account that represent Prepayment Premiums collected
in respect of Group 2 Loans during or prior to the related Collection Period and
shall distribute such amounts, as additional interest, to the Holders of the
Class IO-2 Certificates.
For purposes of the foregoing, the "Discount Rate" is the rate which, when
compounded monthly, is equivalent to the Treasury Rate when compounded
semi-annually. The "Treasury Rate" is the yield calculated by the linear
interpolation of the yields, as reported in Federal Reserve Statistical Release
H.15--Selected Interest Rates under the heading "U.S. government
securities/Treasury constant maturities" for the week ending prior to the date
of the relevant principal prepayment, of U.S. Treasury constant maturities with
a maturity date (one longer and one shorter) most nearly approximating the
maturity date of the Mortgage Loan prepaid. If Release H.15 is no longer
published, the Trustee shall select a comparable publication to determine the
Treasury Rate.
(c) All of the foregoing distributions to be made from the Distribution
Account on any Distribution Date with respect to the REMIC III Certificates
shall be deemed made from the payments deemed made to REMIC III in respect of
the REMIC II Regular Interests on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section
6.3.
Section 6.5 Allocation of Realized Losses and Expense Losses.
(a) On each Distribution Date, following the deemed distributions to be
made in respect of the REMIC I Regular Interests pursuant to Section 6.2, the
Uncertificated Principal Balance of each REMIC I Regular Interest (after taking
account of such deemed distributions) shall be reduced to equal the Stated
Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan (including without limitation an
REO Mortgage Loan or, if applicable, a Replacement Mortgage Loan) that will be
outstanding immediately following such Distribution Date. Such reductions shall
be deemed to be an allocation of Realized Losses and Expense Losses.
(b) On each Distribution Date, following the payments deemed to be made to
REMIC III in respect of the REMIC II Regular Interests on such date pursuant to
Section 6.3, the Trustee shall determine: (i) the amount, if any, by which (A)
the then Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest LG1,
exceeds (B) an amount equal to 99.9% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance
of Loan Group 1 that will be outstanding immediately following such Distribution
Date; and (ii) the amount, if any, by which (A) the then Uncertificated
Principal Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest LG2, exceeds (B) an amount equal
to 99.9% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of Loan Group 2 that will be
outstanding immediately
-99-
following such Distribution Date. If any such excess exists with respect to
either such REMIC II Regular Interest, then the Uncertificated Principal Balance
of such REMIC II Regular Interest shall be reduced until such excess no longer
exists. All such reductions in the Uncertificated Principal Balances of such
REMIC II Regular Interests shall be deemed to be allocations of Realized Losses
and Expense Losses.
On each Distribution Date, following the payments deemed to be made to
REMIC III in respect of the REMIC II Regular Interests on such date pursuant to
Section 6.3, the Trustee shall also determine the amount, if any, by which (i)
the then aggregate Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC II Regular
Xxxxxxxxx X-0X, X-0X, X-0X, X-0, B, C, D, E, F, G, H and J, exceeds (ii) an
amount equal to 0.1% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage
Pool that will be outstanding immediately following such Distribution Date. If
such excess does exist, then the respective Uncertificated Principal Balances of
such REMIC II Regular Interests (other than REMIC II Regular Interests X-0X,
X-0X, X-0X xxx X-0) xxxxx xx reduced sequentially, in reverse alphabetical order
of letter designation, in each case, until the first to occur of such excess
being reduced to zero or the Uncertificated Principal Balance of the particular
REMIC I Regular Interest being reduced to zero. If, after the foregoing
reductions, the amount described in clause (i) of the second preceding sentence
still exceeds the amount described in clause (ii) of the second preceding
sentence, then the respective Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC II
Regular Interests X-0X, X-0X, X-0X xxx X-0 xxxxx xx reduced, pro rata in
accordance with the relative sizes of the then outstanding Uncertificated
Principal Balances of such REMIC II Regular Interests, until the first to occur
of such excess being reduced to zero or each such Uncertificated Principal
Balance being reduced to zero. Such reductions in the Uncertificated Principal
Balances of such REMIC II Regular Interests shall be deemed to be allocations of
Realized Losses and Expense Losses.
(c) On each Distribution Date, following the distributions to be made to
the Certificateholders on such date pursuant to Section 6.4, the Trustee shall
determine the amount, if any, by which (i) the then aggregate Certificate
Principal Balance of the Principal Balance Certificates, exceeds (ii) the
aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool that will be outstanding
immediately following such Distribution Date. If such excess does exist, then
the Class Principal Balances of the Class J, Class H, Class G, Class F, Class E,
Class D, Class C and Class B Certificates shall be reduced sequentially, in that
order, in each case, until the first to occur of such excess being reduced to
zero or the related Class Principal Balance being reduced to zero. If, after the
foregoing reductions, the amount described in clause (i) of the second preceding
sentence still exceeds the amount described in clause (ii) of the second
preceding sentence, then the respective Class Principal Balances of the Class
A-1A, Class A-1B, Class A-1C and Class A-2 Certificates shall be reduced, pro
rata in accordance with the relative sizes of the then outstanding Class
Principal Balances of such Classes of Certificates, until the first to occur of
such excess being reduced to zero or each such Class Principal Balance being
reduced to zero. Such reductions in the Class Principal Balances of the
respective Classes of Principal Certificates shall be deemed to be allocations
of Realized Losses and Expense Losses.

Section 6.6 Appraisal Reductions.
(a) Following the occurrence of an Appraisal Event in respect of any
Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall promptly obtain (A) an Appraisal of
the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property, as applicable, if the Stated
Principal Balance of such Required Appraisal Loan exceeds $1,000,000 or (B) at
the option of the Special Servicer, if the Stated Principal Balance of such
Required Appraisal Loan is less than or equal to $1,000,000, either an internal
valuation prepared by the Special Servicer or an Appraisal; provided that if the
Special Servicer had completed or obtained an Appraisal or internal valuation
within the immediately preceding 12 months, the Special Servicer may rely on
such Appraisal or internal valuation and shall have no duty to prepare a new
Appraisal or internal valuation, unless such reliance would not be in accordance
with the Servicing Standard. Such Appraisal or internal valuation shall be
conducted in accordance with USPAP and shall be updated at least annually to the
extent such Mortgage Loan remains a Required Appraisal Loan. The cost of any
such Appraisal, if not performed by the Special Servicer, shall be an expense of
the Trust and may be paid from REO Income, treated as an Additional Trust
Expense or advanced by the Special Servicer (or, at the direction of the Special
Servicer, by the Master Servicer) in which event it shall be treated as a
Servicing Advance, subject to Section 4.4 hereof. The Master Servicer, based on
the Appraisal or internal valuation provided to it by the Special Servicer,
shall calculate any Appraisal Reduction. The Master Servicer shall calculate or
recalculate the Appraisal Reduction for any Mortgage Loan based on updated
Appraisals or internal valuations provided to it from time to time by the
Special Servicer.
Section 6.7 Compliance with Withholding Requirements. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Trustee shall comply with
all federal withholding requirements with respect to payments to
Certificateholders of interest, original issue discount, or other amounts that
the Trustee reasonably believes are applicable under the Code. The consent of
Certificateholders shall not be required for any such withholding. In the event
the Trustee withholds any amount from payments made to any Certificateholder
pursuant to federal withholding requirements, the Trustee shall indicate to such
Certificateholder the amount withheld.

with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee and the Fiscal
Agent or such agent.
Section 7.5 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee and Fiscal Agent. The
Trustee hereunder shall at all times be (i) an institution insured by the FDIC,
(ii) a corporation, authorized to exercise corporate trust powers, having a
combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to
supervision or examination by federal or state authority, and (iii) an
institution whose long-term senior unsecured debt is, for so long as a Fiscal
Agent is acting hereunder, rated not less than "BBB" by DCR (if rated by DCR or,
if not rated by DCR, then an equivalent rating from another nationally
recognized statistical rating organization other than Xxxxx'x) and, in any
event, "Baa2" by Xxxxx'x; provided that either the Trustee or the Fiscal Agent
shall at all times be an institution whose long-term senior unsecured debt is
rated not less than "AA" by DCR (if rated by DCR or, if not rated by DCR, then
an equivalent rating from another nationally recognized statistical rating
organization other than Xxxxx'x) and, in any event, "Aa2" by Xxxxx'x or
otherwise acceptable to the Rating Agencies. If such corporation, national bank
or national banking association publishes reports of condition at least
annually, pursuant to
-105-
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, national bank or national banking 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 or Fiscal Agent shall
cease to be eligible in accordance with provisions of this Section, the Trustee
or Fiscal Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect
specified in Section 7.6.
Section 7.6 Resignation and Removal of Trustee or Fiscal Agent.
(a) The Trustee or the Fiscal Agent may at any time resign and be
discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to
the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Rating Agencies; provided that such
resignation shall not be effective until its successor shall have accepted the
appointment and Rating Agency Confirmation shall have been obtained with respect
to such appointment. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor
will promptly appoint a successor trustee or fiscal agent, as the case may be,
except in the case of the initial Trustee or Fiscal Agent, in which case both
shall be so replaced concurrently, by written instrument, one copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee or the Fiscal Agent, one
copy to the successor trustee and one copy to each of the Master Servicer and
the Rating Agencies. If no successor trustee or fiscal agent shall have been so
appointed and shall have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of
such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee or the Fiscal Agent may
petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor
trustee or fiscal agent.
(b) If at any time (i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of Section 7.5 and shall fail to resign after written
request therefor by the Depositor, (ii) the Trustee shall become incapable of
acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the
Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take
charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose
of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, (iii) a tax is imposed or
threatened with respect to the Trust or any REMIC Pool by any state in which the
Trustee or the Trust held by the Trustee is located; provided, however, that, if
the Trustee agrees to indemnify the Trust for such taxes, it shall not be
removed pursuant to this clause (iii), or (iv) the continuation of the Trustee
as such would result in a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the rating
by the Rating Agencies of any Class of Certificates with a rating as evidenced
in writing by the Rating Agencies, then the Depositor may remove such Trustee
and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, one copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed, one copy to the
successor trustee and one copy to each of the Master Servicer and the Rating
Agencies. In the case of removal under clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above,
the Trustee shall bear all such costs of transfer. Such succession shall take
effect after a successor trustee has been appointed. In the case of the removal
of the initial Trustee, the Depositor shall also remove the Fiscal Agent. In
this case, the procedures and liability for costs of such removal shall be the
same as they are stated in subsection (c) with respect to the Fiscal Agent.
(c) If at any time (i) the Fiscal Agent shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of Section 7.5 and shall fail to resign after
written request therefor by the Depositor, or (ii) a Termination Event has
occurred, then the Depositor shall send a written notice
-106-
of termination to the Fiscal Agent (which notice shall specify the reason for
such termination) and remove such Fiscal Agent and appoint a successor Fiscal
Agent by written instrument, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to
the Fiscal Agent so removed, one copy to the successor Fiscal Agent, and one
copy to each of the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Rating Agencies. In all
such cases, the Fiscal Agent shall bear all costs of transfer to a successor
Fiscal Agent, such succession only to take effect after a successor Fiscal Agent
has been appointed. In the case of the initial Fiscal Agent, the Depositor may,
but is not required to, also remove the Trustee. In this case, the procedures
and liability for costs of such removal shall be the same as they are stated in
subsection (b) with respect to the Trustee.
(d) The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting
Rights may without cause upon 30 days' written notice to the Trustee or the
Fiscal Agent and to the Depositor remove the Trustee or the Fiscal Agent by such
written instrument, signed by such Holders or their attorney-in-fact duly
authorized, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Depositor and
one copy to the Trustee or the Fiscal Agent so removed; the Depositor shall
thereupon use its best efforts to appoint a successor Trustee or the Fiscal
Agent in accordance with this Section. The Certificateholders effecting such
transfer shall be responsible for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs of
transferring the Mortgage Files to the successor trustee.
(e) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Fiscal Agent and
appointment of a successor trustee or fiscal agent pursuant to any of the
provisions of this Section shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment
by the successor trustee and fiscal agent as provided in Section 7.7. Upon any
succession of the Trustee or the Fiscal Agent under this Agreement, the
predecessor Trustee or the Fiscal Agent shall be entitled to the payment of
compensation and reimbursement agreed to under this Agreement for services
rendered and expenses incurred (including without limitation unreimbursed
Advances made thereby, with any related unpaid Advance Interest accrued on such
Advances) at such times and from such sources as if the predecessor Trustee or
Fiscal Agent had not resigned or been removed. The Trustee and the Fiscal Agent
shall not be liable for any action or omission of any successor Trustee or
Fiscal Agent.
Section 7.7 Successor Trustee or Fiscal Agent.
(a) Any successor Trustee or Fiscal Agent appointed as provided in Section
7.6 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor and to its
predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and
thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee or Fiscal Agent
shall become effective and such successor Trustee or Fiscal Agent, without any
further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights,
powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as
if originally named as Trustee or Fiscal Agent herein. The predecessor Trustee
shall deliver to the successor Trustee all Mortgage Files and documents and
statements related to the Mortgage Files held by it hereunder, and shall duly
assign, transfer, deliver and pay over to the successor Trustee the entire
Trust, together with all instruments of transfer and assignment or other
documents properly executed necessary to effect such transfer and such records
or copies thereof maintained by the predecessor Trustee or Fiscal Agent in the
administration hereof as may be reasonably requested by the successor Trustee or
Fiscal Agent and shall thereupon be discharged from all duties and
-107-
responsibilities under this Agreement. In addition, the Depositor and the
predecessor Trustee or the Fiscal Agent shall execute and deliver such other
instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required to more fully
and certainly vest and confirm in the successor Trustee or the successor Fiscal
Agent all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. Anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the combined fees payable to a
successor Trustee and successor Fiscal Agent exceed the Trustee Fee.
(b) No successor Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this
Section unless at the time of such appointment such successor Trustee shall be
eligible under the provisions of Section 7.5.
(c) Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee or the Fiscal
Agent as provided in this Section, the successor Trustee or the Fiscal Agent
shall mail notice of the succession of such Trustee or Fiscal Agent hereunder to
all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as shown in the Certificate
Register and to the Rating Agencies (evidence of such mailing to be provided to
the Depositor and the Master Servicer). The expenses of such mailing shall be
borne by the successor Trustee or Fiscal Agent.
Section 7.8 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee. Any Person into which the
Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any
Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such
Trustee shall be a party, or any Persons succeeding to the business of such
Trustee or Fiscal Agent, shall be the successor of such Trustee or Fiscal Agent
hereunder, provided that such Person shall be eligible under the provisions of
Section 7.5, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on
the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.
Section 7.9 Appointment of Co-Trustee, Separate Trustee or Custodian.
(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, the Trustee,
the Depositor or, in the case of the Trust, the Certificateholders entitled to
more than 50% of the Voting Rights shall each have the power from time to time

Trustee or as separate trustees, or as custodians, 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 or Special Servicer that such separate
trustee or co-trustee is necessary or advisable) under the laws of any state in
which a property securing a Mortgage Loan is located or for the purpose of
otherwise conforming to any legal requirement, restriction or condition in any
state in which a property securing a Mortgage Loan is located or in any state in
which any portion of the Trust is located. The separate trustees, co-trustees,
or custodians so appointed shall be trustees or custodians for the benefit of
all the Certificateholders, shall have such powers, rights and remedies as shall
be specified in the instrument of appointment and shall be deemed to have
accepted the provision of this Agreement; provided that no such appointment
shall, or shall be deemed to, constitute the appointee an agent of the Trustee;
provided, further that the Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of any
co-trustee or separate trustee not appointed by it.
-108-
(b) Every separate trustee, co-trustee, and custodian shall, to the extent
permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and
conditions:

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, co-trustee, or
custodian 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 or any portion thereof in any
such jurisdiction, shall be exercised and performed by such separate
trustee, co-trustee, or custodian;
(iii) no trustee or custodian hereunder shall be personally liable by
reason of any act or omission of any other trustee or custodian hereunder;
and
(iv) the Trustee or, in the case of the Trust, the Certificateholders
entitled to more than 50% of the Voting Rights outstanding may at any time
accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee, co-trustee or
custodian, so appointed by it or them, if such resignation or removal does
not violate the other terms of this Agreement.
(c) 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 VII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its
acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property
specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or
separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this
Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to
the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the
Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee.
(d) 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, co-trustee or custodian 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.
(e) No separate trustee, co-trustee or custodian hereunder shall be
required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under section
7.5 hereof and no notice to Certificateholders of the appointment of any
separate trustee, co-trustee or custodian hereunder

shall be required.

be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee in executing and authenticating
Certificates. Wherever reference is made in this Agreement to the execution and
authentication of Certificates by the Trustee or the Trustee's certificate of
authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include execution and
authentication on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a
certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent must be acceptable to the
Depositor and must be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws

and place of business in the Borough of Manhattan, the City and State of New
York or in the State of Illinois, having a combined capital and surplus of at

days' advance written notice of resignation to the Trustee and the Depositor.
The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by
giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and the
Depositor. Upon receiving a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or
in case at any time any Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of Section 7.10(a), the Trustee may appoint a
successor Authenticating Agent, shall give written notice of such appointment to
the Depositor and shall mail notice of such appointment to all Holders of
Certificates. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its
appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights,
-110-
powers, duties and responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like
effect as if originally named as Authenticating Agent. No such Authenticating
Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of Section

action taken by it as such at the direction of the Trustee.

in connection with any legal action not expressly required hereby to be borne by
the Trustee and incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on their part,

Depositor and the Holders of the Certificates written notice thereof
promptly after the Trustee shall have knowledge thereof; provided, however
that failure to give such notice to the Depositor and the Holders of
Certificates shall not affect the Trustee's rights to indemnification
herein unless the Depositor's defense of such claim is materially
prejudiced thereby;
(ii) while maintaining control over its own defense, the Trustee shall
cooperate and consult fully with the Depositor in preparing such defense;
and
(iii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.11,
the Trust shall not be liable for settlement of any such claim by the
Trustee entered into without the prior consent of the Depositor, which

its duties as Trustee and Fiscal Agent hereunder, and except any such expense,
disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith or which
is the responsibility of the Holders of the Certificates hereunder. The
provisions of this Section 7.12 shall survive any termination of this Agreement
and the resignation or removal of the Trustee and Fiscal Agent.
Section 7.13 Collection of Moneys. Except as otherwise expressly provided
in this Agreement, the Trustee may demand payment or delivery of, and shall
receive and collect, all money and other property payable to or receivable by
the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement. The Trustee shall hold all such money

ARTICLE VIII
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 8.1 Servicing Standard; General Powers and Duties.
(a) Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall service and
administer the Mortgage Loans and other assets of the Trust that it is obligated
to service and administer pursuant to this Agreement on behalf of the Trustee
and in the best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders (as
determined by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be,
in its good faith and reasonable judgment), in accordance with applicable law,
-114-
the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the respective Mortgage Loans and,
to the extent consistent with the foregoing, further as follows: (i) with the
same care, skill and diligence as is normal and usual in its general mortgage
servicing and REO property management activities on behalf of third parties or
on behalf of itself, whichever is higher, with respect to mortgage loans and REO
properties that are comparable to those for which it is responsible hereunder;
(ii) with a view to the timely collection of all scheduled payments of principal
and interest under the Mortgage Loans or, if a Mortgage Loan comes into and
continues in default and if, in the good faith and reasonable judgment of the
Special Servicer, no satisfactory arrangements can be made for the collection of
the delinquent payments, the maximization of the recovery on such Mortgage Loan
to the Certificateholders (as a collective whole) on a present value basis (the
relevant discounting of anticipated collections that will be distributable to
Certificateholders to be performed at the related Net Mortgage Rate); and (iii)
without regard to (A) any relationship that the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as the case may be, or any Affiliate thereof may have with the related
Mortgagor, (B) the ownership of any Certificate by the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, or by any Affiliate thereof, (C) the
Master Servicer's obligation to make Advances, (D) the Special Servicer's
obligation to make (or to direct the Master Servicer to make) Servicing Advances
and (E) the right of the Master Servicer (or any Affiliate thereof) or the
Special Servicer (or any Affiliate thereof), as the case may be, to receive
reimbursement of costs, or the sufficiency of any compensation payable to it,
hereunder or with respect to any particular transaction (the conditions set
forth in the immediately foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the "Servicing
Standard"). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Master
Servicer and the Special Servicer, in its own name, in connection with its
servicing and administrative duties hereunder is hereby authorized and empowered
by the Trustee to exercise efforts consistent with the foregoing standard and to
execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee or any
of them, any and all financing statements, continuation statements and other
documents or instruments necessary to maintain the lien created by any Mortgage
or other security document in the related Mortgage File on the related Mortgaged
Property and related collateral; subject to Section 8.18, any and all
modifications, waivers, amendments or consents to or with respect to any
documents contained in the related Mortgage File; and any and all instruments of
satisfaction or cancellation, or of full release or discharge, and all other
comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged
Properties. Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer is also
authorized to approve a request by a Mortgagor under a Mortgage Loan that it is
obligated to service and administer pursuant to this Agreement, for an easement,
consent to alteration or demolition, and for other similar matters, provided
that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be,
determines, exercising its good faith business judgment in the same manner as it
would if it were the owner of the related Mortgage Loan, that such approval will
not affect the security for, or the timely and full collectability of, the
related Mortgage Loan. Subject to Section 8.8, the Trustee shall furnish, or
cause to be furnished, to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer any
powers of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to carry out its
servicing and administrative duties hereunder; provided, however, that the
Trustee shall not be held liable for any negligence with respect to, or misuse
of, any such power of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer,
as the case may be.
(b) Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein with respect to specific
duties,
-115-
the Master Servicer shall be responsible for the servicing and administration of
all the Mortgage Loans other than Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO
Mortgage Loans, and the Special Servicer shall be responsible for the servicing
and administration of Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.
Subject to Section 8.1(a), the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall
each have full power and authority, acting alone or, subject to Section 8.4,
through Sub-Servicers, to do or cause to be done any and all things in
connection with such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or
desirable.
(c) Upon determining that a Servicing Transfer Event has occurred with
respect to any Mortgage Loan and if the Master Servicer is not also the Special
Servicer, the Master Servicer shall promptly give notice thereof, and deliver
the related Servicing File, to the Special Servicer and shall use reasonable
efforts to provide the Special Servicer with all information, documents (or
copies thereof) and records (including records stored electronically on computer
tapes, magnetic discs and the like) relating to the Mortgage Loan and reasonably
requested by the Special Servicer to enable it to assume its functions hereunder
with respect thereto without acting through a Sub-Servicer. The Master Servicer
shall use reasonable efforts to comply with the preceding sentence within five
Business Days of the occurrence of each related Servicing Transfer Event. The
Special Servicer may, as to any delinquent Mortgage Loan, prior to the
occurrence of a Servicing Transfer Event with respect thereto, upon reasonable
request, obtain the foregoing documents and information.
Upon determining that a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan has become a
Corrected Mortgage Loan and if the Master Servicer is not also the Special
Servicer, the Special Servicer shall promptly give notice thereof, and return
the related Servicing File, to the Master Servicer and upon giving such notice,
and returning such Servicing File, to the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer's obligation to service such Mortgage Loan, and the Special Servicer's
right to receive the Special Servicing Fee with respect to such Mortgage Loan,
shall terminate, and the obligations of the Master Servicer to service and
administer such Mortgage Loan in accordance with this Agreement shall resume.
Notwithstanding other provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, the
Master Servicer shall remain responsible for the billing and collection,
accounting, data collection, reporting and other basic Master Servicer
administrative functions with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans,
provided that the Special Servicer shall establish procedures for the Master
Servicer as to the application of receipts and tendered payments and shall have
the exclusive responsibility for and authority over all contacts with and
notices to Mortgagors and similar matters relating to each Specially Serviced
Mortgage Loan and the related Mortgaged Property.
(d) The Master Servicer and Special Servicer will each be required to
service and administer each of the respective groups of Cross-Collateralized
Mortgage Loans as a single Mortgage Loan as and when it deems necessary and
appropriate, consistent with the Servicing Standard. If any Cross-Collateralized
Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, then each other
Mortgage Loan with which it is cross-collateralized shall also become a
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan. Similarly, no Cross-Collateralized Mortgage
Loan may subsequently become a Corrected Mortgage Loan, unless and until all
Servicing Transfer Events
-116-
in respect of each other Mortgage Loan with which it is cross-collateralized,
are remediated or otherwise addressed as contemplated above.
(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the
event that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are the same Person, all
notices, certificates, information and consents required to be given by the
Master Servicer to the Special Servicer or vice versa shall be deemed to be
given without the necessity of any action on such Person's part.
(f) The relationship of each of the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer to the Trustee and, unless the same Person acts in both capacities, to
each other under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an
independent contractor and not of a joint venturer, partner or agent.
Section 8.2 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments.
(a) The Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer with respect to the
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) shall make reasonable efforts to collect all
payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and
shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement,
follow such collection procedures as it would follow were it the owner of such
Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be
construed as an express or implied guarantee by the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer of the collectability of the Mortgage Loans. Consistent with
the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion waive any Penalty
Charge in connection with any delinquent payment on a Mortgage Loan (other than
a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan) and the Special Servicer may in its
discretion waive any Penalty Charge in connection with any delinquent payment on
a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan.
(b) With respect to each Mortgage Loan, if required by the terms of the
related Mortgage, any Lock-Box Agreement or similar agreement, the Master
Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts ("Lock-Box Accounts")
to be held outside the Trust and maintained by the Master Servicer in accordance
with the terms of the related Mortgage, any Lock-Box Agreement or similar
agreement. Subject to the terms of the related Mortgage, any Lock-Box Agreement
or similar agreement, Lock-Box Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts. The Master
Servicer shall apply the funds deposited in such accounts in accordance with the
terms of the related Mortgage, any Lock-Box Agreement and/or any similar
agreement and in accordance with the Servicing Standard.
Section 8.3 Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Servicing
Accounts and Reserve Accounts.
(a) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts
(the "Servicing Accounts"), into which all Escrow Payments shall be deposited
and retained. Subject to the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage,
Servicing Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts. Withdrawals of amounts so
collected in respect of any Mortgage Loan (and interest earned thereon) from a
Servicing Account may be made only to: (i) effect payment of real estate taxes,
assessments, insurance premiums, ground rents (if applicable) and comparable
items in
-117-
respect of the related Mortgaged Property; (ii) reimburse the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Fiscal Agent, as applicable, for any
unreimbursed Servicing Advances made thereby to cover any of the items described
in the immediately preceding clause (i); (iii) refund to the related Mortgagor
any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest, if required and
as described below, to the related Mortgagor on balances in the Servicing
Account (or, if and to the extent not payable to the related Mortgagor, to pay
such interest to the Master Servicer or Special Servicer, as applicable); or (v)
clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of this Agreement
in accordance with Section 10.1. As part of its servicing duties, the Master
Servicer shall pay or cause to be paid to the Mortgagors interest on funds in
Servicing Accounts maintained thereby, to the extent required by law or the
terms of the related Mortgage Loan.
(b) Each of the Master Servicer (with respect to Mortgage Loans other than
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) and the Special Servicer (with respect to the
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) shall (i) maintain accurate records with
respect to each related Mortgaged Property reflecting the status of real estate
taxes, assessments and other similar items that are or may become a lien thereon
and the status of insurance premiums and any ground rents payable in respect
thereof, and (ii) use reasonable efforts to obtain, from time to time, all bills
for the payment of such items (including renewal premiums); and the Master
Servicer shall effect payment thereof (in the case of Specially Serviced
Mortgage Loans, at the direction of the Special Servicer) prior to the
applicable penalty or termination date, employing for such purpose Escrow
Payments as allowed under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan. To the extent
that a Mortgage Loan does not require a Mortgagor to escrow for the payment of
real estate taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, ground rents (if applicable)
and similar items, the Master Servicer (or the Special Servicer with respect to
the Specially Serviced Mortgaged Loans) shall use efforts consistent with the
Servicing Standard to cause the related Mortgagor to comply with the
requirements of the related Mortgage for payments in respect of such items at
the time they first become due.
(c) In accordance with the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer (at the
direction of the Special Servicer in the case of Specially Serviced Mortgage
Loans) shall, subject to Section 4.4, advance with respect to each related
Mortgaged Property all such funds as are necessary for the purpose of effecting
the payment of (i) real estate taxes, assessments and other similar items that
are or may become a lien thereon, (ii) ground rents (if applicable), and (iii)
premiums on Insurance Policies, in each instance if and to the extent that
Escrow Payments, if any, collected from the related Mortgagor are insufficient
to pay such item when due and the related Mortgagor has failed to pay such item
on a timely basis. All such advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance
from related collections from the Mortgagors, and further as provided in Section
5.2. No costs incurred by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in
effecting the payment of real estate taxes, assessments, ground rents (if
applicable) and other similar items on or in respect of the Mortgaged Properties
shall, for purposes hereof, including, without limitation, calculating monthly
distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balances
of the related Mortgage Loans, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage
Loans so permit.
(d) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain, as applicable, one or
more
-118-
accounts (the "Reserve Accounts"), into which all Reserve Funds, if any, shall
be deposited and retained. Withdrawals of amounts so deposited may be made to
pay for, or to reimburse the related Mortgagor in connection with, the related
repairs, environmental remediation, replacements, capital improvements and/or
similar items at the related Mortgaged Property if such repairs, environmental
remediation, replacements, capital improvements and/or similar items have been
completed, and such withdrawals are made, in accordance with the Servicing
Standard and the terms of the related Mortgage Note, Mortgage and any agreement
with the related Mortgagor governing such Reserve Funds. Subject to the terms of
the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage, all Reserve Accounts shall be Eligible
Accounts.
Section 8.4 Sub-Servicing Agreements.
(a) The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may each enter into
Sub-Servicing Agreements for the servicing and administration of all or a part
of the Mortgage Loans for which it is responsible hereunder, provided that, in
each case, the Sub-Servicing Agreement: (i) is not inconsistent with this
Agreement and shall provide that the Sub-Servicer will maintain errors and
omissions insurance and fidelity bond coverage as required of the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer (whichever retained it) under Section 8.5
hereof; (ii) provides that if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as
the case may be, shall for any reason no longer be the Master Servicer or
Special Servicer, as applicable, hereunder (including, without limitation, by
reason of an Event of Default and its termination hereunder), the Trustee or its
designee may either thereupon assume all of the rights and, except to the extent
they arose prior to the date of assumption, obligations of the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, under such agreement or,
alternatively, may terminate such agreement without payment of any termination
fee or penalty out of the Trust; (iii) in the case of a Sub-Servicing Agreement
entered into by the Master Servicer, expressly or effectively provides that (if
the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are not the same Person) such
agreement shall terminate with respect to any Mortgage Loan serviced thereunder
at the time such Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan
(provided that such agreement may provide that such Mortgage Loan may again be
serviced thereunder if it becomes a Corrected Mortgage Loan); and (iv) in the
case of a Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into by the Special Servicer, relates
only to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans or REO Properties and expressly or
effectively provides that (if the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are
not the same Person) such agreement shall terminate with respect to any such
Mortgage Loan that becomes a Corrected Mortgage Loan. References in this
Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as the case may be, include actions taken or to be taken by a
Sub-Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the
case may be; and, in connection therewith, all amounts advanced by any
Sub-Servicer to satisfy the obligations of the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder to make Servicing Advances and P&I
Advances shall be deemed to have been advanced by the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, out of its own funds. For purposes of this
Agreement, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall be deemed to
have received any payment when the Sub-Servicer receives such payment. Annually,
in connection with the delivery of the Officer's Certificate contemplated in
Section 8.12, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall identify
to the other, the Trustee and the Depositor any Sub-Servicers then retained
thereby.
-119-
(b) Each Sub-Servicer shall be authorized to transact business in the state
or states in which the Mortgaged Properties securing the Mortgage Loans it is to
service are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law.
(c) As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Master Servicer and
the Special Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders,
shall (at no expense to the Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Trust Fund)
monitor the performance and enforce the obligations of each Sub-Servicer
retained by it under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement. Such enforcement,
including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of
Sub-Servicing Agreements in accordance with their respective terms and the
pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to
such an extent and at such time as the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer,
as the case may be, would require were it the owner of the Mortgage Loans.
Subject to the terms of the applicable Sub-Servicing Agreement, the Master
Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall have the right to remove a
Sub-Servicer retained by it at any time it considers such removal to be in the
best interests of Certificateholders.
(d) In the event the Trustee or its designee assumes the rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under any
Sub-Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the
case may be, at its expense shall, upon request of the Trustee, deliver to the
assuming party all documents and records relating to such Sub-Servicing
Agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced thereunder and an
accounting of amounts collected and held on behalf of it thereunder, and
otherwise use reasonable efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of
the Sub-Servicing Agreement to the assuming party.
(e) Notwithstanding any Sub-Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer and
the Special Servicer each shall remain obligated and liable to the Trustee and
the Certificateholders for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage
Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement to the same extent and
under the same terms and conditions as if it alone were servicing and
administering the Mortgage Loans for which it is responsible.
Section 8.5 Maintenance of Insurance Policies; Errors and Omissions and
Fidelity Coverage.
(a) Each of the Master Servicer (in the case of Mortgage Loans other than
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) and the Special Servicer (in the case of
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans) shall use reasonable efforts to cause each
Mortgagor to maintain in respect of the related Mortgaged Property all insurance
coverage (other than earthquake insurance) as is required under the related
Mortgage; provided that if any Mortgage permits the holder thereof to dictate to
the Mortgagor the insurance coverage to be maintained on such Mortgaged
Property, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as appropriate, shall
impose such insurance requirements as are consistent with the Servicing
Standard. If a Mortgagor fails to maintain such insurance, the Master Servicer
(at the direction of the Special Servicer in the case of a Specially Serviced
Mortgage Loan) shall (to the extent available at commercially reasonable rates)
obtain such insurance (which may be through a master or single interest policy),
and the cost (including any deductible relating to such insurance) of such
insurance (or in the case of a master or single interest policy, the incremental
cost (including any deductible relating to such insurance) of such
-120-
insurance relating to the specific Mortgaged Property), shall be a Servicing
Advance recoverable by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 5.2. If at any
time a Mortgaged Property is located in an area identified in the Flood Hazard
Boundary Map or Flood Insurance Rate Map issued by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency as having special flood hazards or it becomes located in such
area by virtue of remapping conducted by such agency (and flood insurance has
been made available), the Master Servicer (or, in the case of a Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer) shall, if and to the extent that
the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor or permits the Mortgagee to require the
Mortgagor to do so, use efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to cause
the related Mortgagor to maintain a flood insurance policy meeting the
requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration
in an amount representing coverage of not less than the least of (i) the unpaid
principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the full insurable value of
such Mortgaged Property, (iii) the maximum amount of insurance coverage
available under the National Flood Insurance Act or 1968, the Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973 or the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994, as
amended, and (iv) 100% of the replacement cost of the improvements on such
Mortgaged Property. If (i) the Mortgagor is required by the terms of the
Mortgage Loan to maintain such insurance (or becomes obligated by virtue of the
related Mortgaged Property becoming located in such area by virtue of such
remapping) or (ii) the terms of the Mortgage Loan permit the mortgagee to
require the Mortgagor to obtain such insurance, the Master Servicer (or, in the
case of a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer) shall promptly
notify the Mortgagor of its obligation to obtain such insurance. If the
Mortgagor fails to obtain such flood insurance within 120 days of such
notification, the Master Servicer (at the direction of the Special Servicer in
the case of a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan) shall obtain such insurance (to
the extent available at commercially reasonable rates), and the cost of such
insurance shall be a Servicing Advance recoverable by the Master Servicer
pursuant to Section 5.2. The Special Servicer shall also cause to be maintained
for each REO Property no less insurance coverage than was previously required of
the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage. All such insurance policies shall
contain a "standard" mortgagee clause or shall identify the Trustee as the named
insured, as applicable, with any loss payable to the Master Servicer (in the
case of Mortgaged Properties) or the Special Servicer (in the case of REO
Properties) on behalf of the Trustee. Any amounts collected by the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to
be applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or REO
Property or amounts to be released to the related Mortgagor, in each case in
accordance with applicable law, the terms of the related Mortgage Loan documents
and the Servicing Standard) shall be deposited in the Collection Account,
subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 5.2. Any cost incurred by the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not,
for purposes hereof, including, without limitation, calculating monthly
distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the outstanding principal
balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such
Mortgage Loan so permit.
(b) If the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall obtain and
maintain a blanket policy insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgaged
Properties and/or REO Properties for which it is responsible to cause the
maintenance of insurance hereunder, then, to the extent such policy provides
protection equivalent to the individual policies otherwise required, the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall conclusively be
deemed to have satisfied its obligation to cause hazard insurance to be
maintained on such Mortgaged
-121-
Properties and/or REO Properties. Such policy may contain a deductible clause
(not in excess of a customary amount), in which case the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as appropriate, shall, if there shall not have been maintained
on a Mortgaged Property or an REO Property a hazard insurance policy complying
with the requirements of Section 8.5(a), and there shall have been one or more
losses which would have been covered by such individual policy, promptly deposit
into the Collection Account from its own funds the amount of such loss or losses
that would have been covered under the individual policy but are not covered
under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause. The Master Servicer
and the Special Servicer each agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of
itself, the Trustee and Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy
maintained by it in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such
policy.
(c) Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall obtain and
maintain at its own expense and keep in full force and effect throughout the
term of this Agreement a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions
insurance policy covering its officers and employees and other persons acting on
behalf of it in connection with its activities under this Agreement. The amount
of coverage shall be at least equal to the coverage that would be required by
FNMA or FHLMC, whichever is greater, with respect to the Master Servicer or
Special Servicer, as the case may be, if the Master Servicer or Special
Servicer, as the case may be, were servicing and administering the Mortgage
Loans and/or REO Properties for which it is responsible hereunder for FNMA or
FHLMC. Coverage of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer under a policy or
bond obtained by an Affiliate of such Person and providing the coverage required
by this Section 8.5(c) shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 8.5(c).
(d) All insurance coverage required to be maintained by the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer under this Section 8.5 shall be obtained from Qualified
Insurers (A) whose claims-paying ability is rated at least investment grade (or,
in the case of a blanket hazard policy obtained in accordance with Section
8.5(b), rated in one of the three highest ratings categories) by each Rating
Agency or, if such claims- paying ability is not rated by DCR, by each of
Xxxxx'x and one other nationally recognized statistical rating organization or
(B) who are (as evidenced by the receipt of Rating Agency Confirmation)
otherwise acceptable to each Rating Agency.
Section 8.6 Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements;
Subordinate Financing.
(a) If any Mortgage Loan which contains a provision in the nature of a
"due-on-sale" clause, which by its terms:
(i) provides that such Mortgage Loan shall (or may at the mortgagee's
option) become due and payable upon the sale or other transfer of an
interest in the related Mortgaged Property; or
(ii) provides that such Mortgage Loan may not be assumed without the
consent of the mortgagee in connection with any such sale or other
transfer,
then, for so long as such Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust Fund, the
Master Servicer or, in the case of a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, the
Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee
-122-
as the mortgagee of record, shall exercise (or, subject to Section 8.18(a)(ii),
waive its right to exercise) any right it may have with respect to such Mortgage
Loan (x) to accelerate the payments thereon, or (y) to withhold its consent to
any such sale or other transfer, in a manner consistent with the Servicing
Standard. In the event that the Master Servicer or Special Servicer intends or
is required, in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Mortgage Loan
documents or applicable law, to permit the transfer of any Mortgaged Property,
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, if consistent
with the Servicing Standard, may enter into a substitution of liability
agreement, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor and any original guarantors
are released from liability, and the transferee and any new guarantors are
substituted therefor and become liable under the Mortgage Note and any related
guaranties and, in connection therewith, may require from the related Mortgagor
a reasonable and customary fee for the additional services performed by it,
together with reimbursement for any related costs and expenses incurred by it
(but only to the extent that charging such fee will not be a significant
modification of the Mortgage Loan for purposes of the REMIC Provisions or result
in an Adverse REMIC Event in respect of any REMIC Pool). The Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall promptly notify the Trustee of
any such agreement and forward the original thereof to the Trustee for inclusion
in the related Mortgage File.
(b) If any Mortgage Loan which contains a provision in the nature of a
"due-on-encumbrance" clause, which by its terms:
(i) provides that such Mortgage Loan shall (or may at the mortgagee's
option) become due and payable upon the creation of any additional lien or
other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property; or
(ii) requires the consent of the mortgagee to the creation of any such
additional lien or other encumbrance on the related Mortgaged Property,
then, for so long as such Mortgage Loan is included in the Trust Fund, the
Master Servicer or, in the case of a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, the
Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee as the mortgagee of record, shall
exercise (or, subject to Section 8.18(a)(ii), waive its right to exercise) any
right it may have with respect to such Mortgage Loan (x) to accelerate the
payments thereon, or (y) to withhold its consent to the creation of any such
additional lien or other encumbrance, in a manner consistent with the Servicing
Standard.
(c) Nothing in this Section 8.6 shall constitute a waiver of the Trustee's
right, as the mortgagee of record, to receive notice of any assumption of a
Mortgage Loan, any sale or other transfer of the related Mortgaged Property or
the creation of any additional lien or other encumbrance with respect to such
Mortgaged Property.
(d) Except as otherwise permitted by Section 8.18, neither the Master
Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall agree to modify, waive or amend any term
of any Mortgage Loan in connection with the taking of, or the failure to take,
any action pursuant to this Section 8.6.
-123-
Section 8.7 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
(a) The Master Servicer shall notify the Special Servicer of the occurrence
of a Servicing Transfer Event in respect of any Mortgage Loan; and, subject to
Section 8.18, the Special Servicer shall monitor such Mortgage Loan, evaluate
whether the causes of any default thereunder can be corrected over a reasonable
period without significant impairment of the value of the related Mortgaged
Property, initiate corrective action in cooperation with the Mortgagor if, in
the Special Servicer's reasonable and good faith judgment, cure is likely, and
take such other actions as are consistent with the Servicing Standard. If, in
the Special Servicer's reasonable and good faith judgment, such corrective
action has been unsuccessful, no satisfactory arrangement can be made for
collection of delinquent payments and no other alternative consistent with the
Servicing Standard can be negotiated, and the defaulted Mortgage Loan has not
been released from the Trust Fund pursuant to any provision hereof, then the
Special Servicer shall, subject to subsections (b) through (d) of this Section
8.7, exercise reasonable efforts, consistent with the Servicing Standard, to
foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert (which may include an REO
Acquisition) the ownership of property securing such Mortgage Loan. The
foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which a Mortgaged
Property shall have suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Master Servicer
and the Special Servicer shall each have the right but not the obligation to
expend its own funds toward the restoration of such property if it shall
determine in its reasonable discretion (i) that such restoration will increase
the net proceeds of liquidation of such Mortgaged Property to Certificateholders
after reimbursement to itself for such expenses, and (ii) that such expenses
will be recoverable as Servicing Advances by the Master Servicer or Special
Servicer, as the case may be, out of the proceeds of liquidation of such
Mortgaged Property, as contemplated in Section 5.2. The Special Servicer (or, at
the direction of the Special Servicer, the Master Servicer) shall be responsible
for all other costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings, subject
to its being entitled to reimbursement therefor as a Servicing Advance as
provided in Section 4.2 or Section 5.2, and further subject to its being
entitled to pay out of the related Liquidation Proceeds any Liquidation Expenses
incurred in respect of any Mortgage Loan, which Liquidation Expenses were
outstanding at the time such proceeds are received. When applicable state law
permits the Special Servicer to select between judicial and non-judicial
foreclosure in respect of any Mortgaged Property, the Special Servicer shall
make such selection in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard. Nothing
contained in this Section 8.7 shall be construed so as to require the Special
Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, to make a bid on any Mortgaged Property
at a foreclosure sale or similar proceeding that is in excess of the fair market
value of such property, as determined by the Special Servicer in its sole
judgment taking into account the factors described in Section 8.31(f) and the
results of any Appraisal obtained pursuant to this Agreement, all such bids to
be made in a manner consistent with the Servicing Standard. If and when the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer deems it necessary and prudent for
purposes of establishing the fair market value of any Mortgaged Property
securing a defaulted Mortgage Loan, whether for purposes of bidding at
foreclosure or otherwise, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the
case may be, is authorized to have an Appraisal performed with respect to such
property (the cost of which Appraisal shall be covered by, and be reimbursable
as, a Servicing Advance).
(b) The Special Servicer shall not acquire any personal property pursuant
to this Section 3.09 (with the exception of cash or cash equivalents pledged as
collateral for a Mortgage
-124-
Loan) unless either:
(i) such personal property is incident to real property (within the
meaning of Section 856(e)(1) of the Code) so acquired by the Special
Servicer; or
(ii) the Special Servicer shall have obtained an Opinion of Counsel
(the cost of which may be withdrawn from the Collection Account pursuant to
Section 5.2) to the effect that the holding of such personal property by
the Trust Fund will not cause the imposition of a tax on the Trust Fund
under the REMIC Provisions or cause any of REMIC I, REMIC II or REMIC III
to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is
outstanding.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.7, neither
the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall, on behalf of the Trustee,
initiate foreclosure proceedings, obtain title to a Mortgaged Property in lieu
of foreclosure or otherwise, have a receiver of rents appointed with respect to
any Mortgaged Property, or take any other action with respect to any Mortgaged
Property, if, as a result of any such action, the Trustee, on behalf of the
Certificateholders, would be considered to hold title to, to be a
"mortgagee-in-possession" of, or to be an "owner" or "operator" of such
Mortgaged Property within the meaning of CERCLA or any comparable law, unless
(as evidenced by an Officer's Certificate to such effect delivered to the
Trustee) the Special Servicer has previously received an Environmental
Assessment in respect of such Mortgaged Property prepared by a Person who
regularly conducts Environmental Assessments and the Special Servicer, based
solely (as to environmental matters and related costs) on the information set
forth in such Environmental Assessment, determines that:
(i) the Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable
Environmental Laws or, if not, that acquiring such Mortgaged Property and
taking such actions as are necessary to bring the Mortgaged Property in
compliance therewith is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery to
Certificateholders on a present value basis than not acquiring such
Mortgaged Property and not taking such actions; and
(ii) there are no circumstances or conditions present at the Mortgaged
Property relating to the use, management or disposal of Hazardous Materials
for which investigations, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or
remediation could be required under any applicable environmental laws and
regulations or, if such circumstances or conditions are present for which
any such action could be required, that acquiring such Mortgaged Property
and taking such actions with respect to such Mortgaged Property is
reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery to Certificateholders on a
present value basis than not acquiring such Mortgaged Property and not
taking such actions.
The cost of any such Environmental Assessment, as well as the cost of any
remedial, corrective or other further action contemplated by clause (i) and/or
clause (ii) of the preceding paragraph, may be withdrawn from the Collection
Account by the Master Servicer as an expense of the Trust pursuant to Section
5.2; and if any such Environmental Assessment so warrants, the Special Servicer
shall, at the expense of the Trust payable out of the Collection Account
pursuant to Section 5.2, perform such additional environmental testing as is
consistent with the Servicing
-125-
Standard to determine whether the conditions described in clauses (i) and (ii)
of the preceding paragraph have been satisfied.
(d) If the environmental testing contemplated by subsection (c) above
establishes that either of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of
the first sentence thereof has not been satisfied with respect to any Mortgaged
Property securing a defaulted Mortgage Loan, then the Special Servicer shall
take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust
Fund (other than proceeding to acquire title to the Mortgaged Property) and is
hereby authorized at such time as it deems appropriate to release all or a
portion of such Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage.
(e) The Special Servicer shall provide monthly to the Master Servicer, who
shall, in turn, promptly deliver copies thereof to the Trustee, written reports
regarding any actions taken by the Special Servicer with respect to any
Mortgaged Property securing a defaulted Mortgage Loan as to which the
environmental testing contemplated in subsection (c) above has revealed that
either of the conditions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of the first sentence
thereof has not been satisfied, in each case until the earliest to occur of
satisfaction of both such conditions, removal of the related Mortgage Loan from
the Trust Fund and release of the lien of the related Mortgage on such Mortgaged
Property. Within 5 days of its receipt thereof, the Trustee shall deliver a copy
of each such report to the Depositor and each Rating Agency.
(f) The Special Servicer shall report to the Internal Revenue Service and
the related Mortgagor, in the manner required by applicable law, the information
required to be reported regarding any Mortgaged Property which is abandoned or
foreclosed. The Special Servicer shall deliver a copy of any such report to the
Trustee.
(g) The Special Servicer shall have the right to determine, in accordance
with the Servicing Standard, the advisability of the maintenance of an action to
obtain a deficiency judgment if the state in which the Mortgaged Property is
located and the terms of the Mortgage Loan permit such an action.
(h) The Special Servicer shall maintain accurate records, prepared by a
Servicing Officer, of each Final Recovery Determination in respect of a
defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property and the basis thereof. Each Final
Recovery Determination shall be evidenced by an Officer's Certificate delivered
to the Trustee and the Master Servicer no later than the 10th Business Day
following such Final Recovery Determination.
Section 8.8 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.
(a) Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer of a notification that payment in full
shall be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, will immediately notify the Trustee
and request delivery of the related Mortgage File. Any such notice and request
shall be in the form of a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer and
shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be
received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in
the Collection Account
-126-
pursuant to Section 5.1 have been or will be so deposited. Within four Business
Days (or within such shorter period as release can reasonably be accomplished if
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer notifies the Trustee of an exigency)
of receipt of such notice and request, the Trustee shall release, or cause any
related Custodian to release, the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer, whichever requested it. No expenses incurred in
connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be
chargeable to the Collection Account.
(b) From time to time as is appropriate for servicing or foreclosure of any
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may deliver to the
Trustee a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer thereof. Upon
receipt of the foregoing, the Trustee shall deliver or cause the related
Custodian to deliver, the Mortgage File or any document therein to the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be. Upon return of such
Mortgage File or such document to the Trustee or the related Custodian, or the
delivery to the Trustee of a certificate of a Servicing Officer 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 Collection Account pursuant to Section 5.1 have been or will be so
deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Property, the Request
for Release shall be released by the Trustee to the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as applicable.
(c) Within three Business Days (or within such shorter period as delivery
can reasonably be accomplished if the Special Servicer notifies the Trustee of
an exigency) of receipt thereof, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the
Special Servicer any 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. The Special Servicer shall
be responsible for the preparation of all such documents and pleadings. When
submitted to the Trustee for signature, such documents or pleadings shall be
accompanied by a certificate of a Servicing Officer requesting that such
pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee and certifying 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 related Mortgage, except for the termination of such a lien upon
completion of the foreclosure or trustee's sale.
Section 8.9 Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of Master Servicer
or Special Servicer to be Held for the Trustee for the Benefit of the
Certificateholders. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the
Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each transmit to the Trustee, to
the extent required by this Agreement, all documents and instruments coming into
the possession of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may
be, from time to time and shall account fully to the Trustee for any funds
received or otherwise collected thereby, including Liquidation Proceeds,
Condemnation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage Loan or
REO Property. All Mortgage Loan documents and funds collected or held by, or
under the control of, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer in respect of
any Mortgage Loans and/or REO Properties, whether from the collection of
principal and interest payments or from Liquidation Proceeds, Condemnation
-127-
Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds or otherwise, including any funds on deposit in
the Collection Account, shall be held by the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as the case may be, for and on behalf of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of
the Trustee, subject to the applicable provisions of this Agreement. The Master
Servicer and the Special Servicer each agrees that it shall not create, incur or
subject any Mortgage Loan documents or any funds that are deposited in the
Collection Account or any Lock-Box Account, Reserve Account or Servicing
Account, or any funds that otherwise are or may become due or payable to the
Trustee, to any claim, lien, security interest, judgment, levy, writ of
attachment or other encumbrance, or assert by legal action or otherwise any
claim or right of setoff against any Mortgage Loan documents or any funds
collected on, or in connection with, a Mortgage Loan or REO Property, except,
however, that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall be
entitled to receive from any such funds any amounts that are properly due and
payable to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be,
under this Agreement.
Section 8.10 Servicing Compensation.
(a) As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Master Servicer shall
be entitled to receive the Master Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage
Loan, including without limitation each Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and
each REO Mortgage Loan. As to each Mortgage Loan, including without limitation
each Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and each REO Mortgage Loan, the Master
Servicing Fee shall accrue on the related Scheduled Principal Balance of such
Mortgage Loan outstanding from time to time at the applicable Master Servicing
Fee Rate and shall be computed for the same period respecting which any related
interest payment due or deemed due on such Mortgage Loan is computed. The Master
Servicing Fee with respect to any Mortgage Loan or REO Loan shall cease to
accrue if a Liquidation Event occurs in respect thereof. The Master Servicing
Fee shall be payable monthly, on a loan-by-loan basis, from payments of interest
on each Mortgage Loan, REO Income allocable as interest on each REO Mortgage
Loan and the interest portion of P&I Advances on each Mortgage Loan, including
without limitation each REO Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer shall be entitled
to recover unpaid Master Servicing Fees in respect of any Mortgage Loan,
including without limitation each REO Mortgage Loan, out of that portion of
related Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds,
Repurchase Proceeds or payments of Substitution Shortfall Amounts allocable as
recoveries of interest, to the extent permitted by Section 5.2. The Master
Servicer's right to receive the Master Servicing Fee may not be transferred in
whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Master
Servicer's responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement.
The Master Servicer shall be entitled to additional master servicing
compensation ("Additional Master Servicing Compensation") in the form of:
(i) any modification fees, assumption fees, ancillary fees not
otherwise addressed herein and, to the extent not otherwise applied to pay
Advance Interest as provided herein, Penalty Charges collected on Mortgage
Loans other than Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Mortgage Loans;
-128-
(ii) any Prepayment Interest Excesses collected on the Mortgage Loans,
including without limitation Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO
Mortgage Loans, but only to the extent that the aggregate of all such
Prepayment Interest Excesses collected during each Collection Period
exceeds the Prepayment Interest Shortfalls incurred during such Collection
Period;
(iii) any Balloon Payment Interest Excesses collected on the Mortgage
Loans, including without limitation Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and
REO Mortgage Loans, but only to the extent that the aggregate of all such
Balloon Payment Interest Excesses collected during each Collection Period
exceeds the Balloon Payment Interest Shortfalls incurred during such
Collection Period;
(iv) any interest and other income earned on the investment of funds
in the Collection Account, but only to the extent not applied to offset
losses on other investments of funds in the Collection Account; and
(v) any interest and other income earned on the investment of funds in
the Servicing Accounts maintained by the Master Servicer, but only to the
extent not required to be paid to Mortgagors under applicable law or the
terms of the respective Mortgage Loan documents.
(b) As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Special Servicer
shall be entitled to receive the Special Servicing Fee with respect to each
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and each REO Mortgage Loan. As to each
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and each REO Mortgage Loan, the Special
Servicing Fee shall accrue on the related Scheduled Principal Balance of such
Mortgage Loan outstanding from time to time at the Special Servicing Fee Rate
and shall be computed for the same period respecting which any related interest
payment due on such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or deemed to be due on such
REO Mortgage Loan is computed. The Special Servicing Fee with respect to each
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and each REO Mortgage Loan shall cease to
accrue if a Liquidation Event occurs in respect thereof. As to each Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loan and each REO Loan, earned but unpaid Special Servicing
Fees shall be payable monthly out of the same sources and at the same time (but
separate from) Master Servicing Fees payable to the Master Servicer in respect
of such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or REO Mortgage Loan.
As further compensation for its activities hereunder, the Special Servicer
shall be entitled to receive the Workout Fee with respect to each Corrected
Mortgage Loan. As to each Corrected Mortgage Loan, the Workout Fee shall be
payable from, and shall be calculated by application of the Workout Fee Rate to,
each collection of interest and principal received on such Mortgage Loan for so
long as it remains a Corrected Mortgage Loan. The Workout Fee with respect to
any Corrected Mortgage Loan will cease to be payable if a Servicing Transfer
Event occurs with respect thereto or if the related Mortgaged Property becomes
an REO Property; provided that a new Workout Fee will become payable if and when
such Mortgage Loan again becomes a Corrected Mortgage Loan. If the Special
Servicer is terminated other than for cause or resigns in accordance with
Section 8.23, it shall retain the right to receive any and all Workout Fees
payable in respect of Mortgage Loans that became Corrected Mortgage Loans during
the
-129-
period that it acted as Special Servicer and were still such at the time of such
termination or resignation (and the successor Special Servicer shall not be
entitled to any portion of such Workout Fees), in each case until the Workout
Fee for any such loan ceases to be payable in accordance with the preceding
sentence.
As further compensation for its activities hereunder, the Special Servicer
shall also be entitled to receive a Liquidation Fee with respect to each
Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or REO Property as to which it receives any
full or discounted payoff or any Liquidation Proceeds (other than in connection
with the purchase of any such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or REO Property
by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Majority Certificateholder
of the Controlling Class pursuant to Section 8.31(a) or by any Person entitled
to effect an optional termination of the Trust pursuant to Section 10.01). As to
each such Specially Serviced Loan or REO Property, the Liquidation Fee shall be
payable from, and shall be calculated by application of the Liquidation Fee Rate
to, such full or discounted payoff and/or such Liquidation Proceeds. The
Liquidation Fee with respect to any such Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan will
not be payable if such Mortgage Loan becomes a Corrected Mortgage Loan.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Liquidation Fee will be
payable from, or based upon the receipt of, Liquidation Proceeds collected as a
result of any purchase of a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan or REO Property
described in the parenthetical to the first sentence of this paragraph;
provided, however, that if any such Liquidation Proceeds are received with
respect to any Corrected Mortgage Loan, and the Special Servicer is properly
entitled to a Workout Fee therefrom, such Workout Fee will be payable based on
and from the portion of such Liquidation Proceeds that constitute principal
and/or interest.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Liquidation Fee and a
Workout Fee relating to the same Mortgage Loan shall not be paid from the same
proceeds on or with respect to such Mortgage Loan.
As further compensation for its activities hereunder, the Special Servicer
will also be entitled to receive the Special Servicer Standby Fee. The Special
Servicer Standby Fee will accrue with respect to each Mortgage Loan (including
without limitation each Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan and each REO Mortgage
Loan), at the Special Servicer Standby Fee Rate on the basis of the same
principal amount and for the same period respecting which any related interest
payment due or deemed due on such Mortgage Loan is computed, and will be payable
by the Master Servicer out of its Master Servicing Fee with respect to such
Mortgage Loan for each Collection Period.
The Special Servicer shall be entitled to additional special servicing
compensation ("Additional Special Servicing Compensation") in the form of any
modification fees, assumption fees, ancillary fees not otherwise addressed
herein and, to the extent not otherwise applied to pay Advance Interest as
provided herein, Penalty Charges collected on Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans
and REO Mortgage Loans.
(c) The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each be required to
pay out of its own funds all overhead and general and administrative expenses
incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including,
without limitation, payment of any
-130-
amount due and owing to any Sub-Servicers retained by it and the premiums for
any blanket policy obtained by it insuring against hazard losses pursuant to
Section 8.5(b)), if and to the extent such expenses are not payable directly out
of the Collection Account, and neither the Master Servicer nor the Special
Servicer, as the case may be, shall be entitled to reimbursement except as
expressly provided in this Agreement.

(a) The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, no later than the

Depositor must file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Report on Form
10-K in respect of the Trust pursuant to the requirements of the Exchange Act,

Servicer, as the case may be, under this Agreement has been made under such
officer's supervision and (b) to the best of such officer's knowledge, based on
such review, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be,
has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement in all material respects
throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any
such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and the
nature and status thereof. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall

Depositor must file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Report on Form
10-K in respect of the Trust pursuant to the requirements of the Exchange Act,
on or before March 15 of such year), the Master Servicer at its expense shall
cause a firm of Accountants to furnish a statement to the Depositors, the
Operating Adviser and the Trustee to the effect that (i) it has obtained a
letter of representation

includes an assertion that the Master Servicer has complied with certain minimum
mortgage loan servicing standards (to the extent applicable to commercial and
multifamily mortgage loans), identified in the Uniform Single Attestation
Program for Mortgage Bankers established by the Mortgage Bankers Association of
America, with respect to the servicing of commercial and multifamily mortgage
loans during the most recently completed calendar year and (ii) on the basis of
an examination conducted by such firm in accordance with standards established
by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, such representation
is fairly stated in all material respects, subject to such exceptions and other
qualifications that may be appropriate. In rendering its report such firm may
rely, as to matters relating to the direct servicing of commercial and
multifamily mortgage loans by Sub-Servicers, upon comparable reports of firms of
independent certified public accountants rendered on the basis of examinations
conducted in accordance with the same standards (rendered within one year of
such report) with respect to those Sub-Servicers.
The Special Servicer will deliver to the Depositor, the Operating Adviser,
the Trustee and the Master Servicer an annual accountants' report only if, and
in such form as may be, requested by the Rating Agencies.
The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, to the extent applicable,
shall each, with 90 days' prior notice, use reasonable efforts to cause the
applicable Accountants to cooperate with the Depositor in conforming any reports

mutually acceptable to the Master Servicer and the Trustee and will be updated
within a reasonable period after the requisite underlying information is

(b) Not later than the Report Date occurring in June of each year,
beginning in June 1998, the Master Servicer shall, to the extent such

Trustee a report (the "Annual Report") for each Mortgage Loan, based on the most
recently available year-end financial statements and most recently available
rent rolls of each applicable Mortgagor (to the extent provided to the Master
Servicer by or on behalf of each Mortgagor, or, in the case of Specially
Serviced Mortgaged Loans and REO Mortgage Loans, as provided to or obtained by
the Special Servicer and

copies) of any and all of the foregoing items shall be made available by the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, upon request;
provided, however, that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each
be permitted to require payment by the requesting party (other than the
Depositor, the Trustee, the Underwriter or either Rating Agency) of a sum
sufficient to cover the reasonable expenses actually incurred by the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, of providing access or
copies (including electronic or digital copies) of any such information
requested in accordance with the preceding sentence.
(b) Nothing herein shall be deemed to require the Master Servicer or
Special Servicer to confirm, represent or warrant the accuracy of (or to be
liable or responsible for) any other Person's information or report, included in
any communication from the other (unless the Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer are the same Person) or from a Mortgagor. Neither the Master Servicer

Account from time to time) shall hold harmless and indemnify the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Fiscal Agent, as the case may
be, from any loss or expense (including attorney fees) relating to or arising
from such claims.
(c) The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each produce the
reports required of it under this Agreement; provided, however, that neither the
Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to produce any ad hoc

-133-
to the Mortgage Loans. In the event the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer
elects to provide such reports, it may require the Person requesting such report
to pay a reasonable fee to cover the costs of the preparation thereof. Requests
for any such report shall be made, and any such report shall be disseminated,
through the Trustee.
(d) In connection with providing access to or copies of the items described
in the subsections (a), (b) and/or (c) of this Section 8.15 or in Section 8.16,
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Trustee may each require: (a)
in the case of Certificate Owners, a written confirmation executed by the
requesting Person, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer, the
Special Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, generally to the effect

Special Servicer, as the case may be, designated by it.
(f) The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each cooperate in
providing the Rating Agencies with such other pertinent information relating to
the Mortgage Loans as is or should be in their respective possession as the
Rating Agencies may reasonably request.
Section 8.16 Rule 144A Information. For so long as any of the
Non-Registered Certificates are "restricted securities" within the meaning of
Rule 144A under the Securities Act, the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer
agrees to provide to the Trustee, which in turn shall provide to any Holder,
Certificate Owner or Prospective Investor of such Certificates, upon the request
of such Holder, Certificate Owner or Prospective Investor subject to the other
provisions of this Section 8.16 and the provisions of subsections (b), (c) and
(d) of Section 8.15, any information prepared by or otherwise in the possession
or under the control of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case
may be, that has not already been delivered to the Trustee and that is required
to be provided to such Holder, Certificate Owner or Prospective Investor to
satisfy the condition set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act,
including, without limitation, copies of the reports and information described

Any recipient of information provided pursuant to this Section 8.16 shall
agree that such information shall not be disclosed or used for any purpose other

-134-
investment in the Non-Registered Certificates. Unless the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer chooses to deliver the information directly, the Trustee shall
be responsible for the physical delivery of the information requested pursuant
to this Section 8.16. As a condition to the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer making any report or information available upon request to any Person
other than another parties hereto, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer,
as the case may be, may require that the recipient of such information
acknowledge that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may
be, may contemporaneously provide such information to the Depositor, the
Trustee, the Underwriter and/or the Certificateholders and Certificate Owners.
The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer will each be permitted to require
payment of a sum by the requesting party (other than the Rating Agencies, the
Depositor, the Trustee or the Underwriter) sufficient to cover the reasonable
costs and expenses of making such information available.
Section 8.17 Inspections; Collection of Financial Statements.
(a) The Master Servicer shall perform (or cause to be performed) a physical
inspection of each Mortgaged Property (other than Mortgaged Properties
constituting REO Properties or collateral for Specially Serviced Mortgaged
Loans) at such times and in such manner as are consistent with the Servicing
Standard, but in any event at least once every two years (or, if the related
Mortgage Loan has a current balance of more than the lesser of $2,000,000 and 3%
of the then aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool, at least
once every year). The Master Servicer shall promptly prepare (or cause to be
prepared) a written report of each such inspection detailing the condition of
the Mortgaged Property and specifying the existence of (i) any vacancy in the
Mortgaged Property evident from such inspection that the Master Servicer deems
material, (ii) any sale, transfer or abandonment of the Mortgaged Property
evident from such inspection, (iii) any adverse change in the condition or value
of the Mortgaged Property evident from such inspection that the Master Servicer
deems material, or (iv) any waste committed on the Mortgaged Property evident
from such inspection. The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee a copy of
each such written report within 30 days of the related inspection; and, within 5
days of its receipt of each such written report, the Trustee shall forward a
copy to the Depositor and the Rating Agencies.
(b) The Special Servicer shall perform (or cause to be performed) a
physical inspection of each REO Property and each Mortgaged Property
constituting collateral for a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan at such times and

at least once per calendar year. If any Mortgage Loan becomes a Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loan, then as soon as practicable (and in any event within 90
days thereafter) the Special Servicer shall perform (or cause to be performed) a
physical inspection of each Mortgaged Property constituting collateral for such
Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicer shall promptly prepare (or cause to be
prepared) a written report of each such inspection detailing the condition of
the Mortgaged Property and specifying the existence of (i) any vacancy in the
Mortgaged Property evident from such inspection that the Special Servicer deems
material, (ii) any sale, transfer or abandonment of the Mortgaged Property
evident from such inspection, (iii) any adverse change in the condition or value
of the Mortgaged Property evident from such inspection that the Special Servicer
deems material, or (iv) any waste committed on the Mortgaged Property evident
from such inspection. The Special Servicer shall deliver to
-135-
the Master Servicer, who shall thereupon promptly deliver to the Trustee, a copy
of each such written report within 60 days of the related inspection; and,
within 5 days of its receipt of each such written report, the Trustee shall
forward a copy to the Depositor and the Rating Agencies.
(c) The Master Servicer (or, in the case of Specially Serviced Mortgage
Loans, the Special Servicer) shall make reasonable efforts to collect promptly
from each Mortgagor quarterly and annual operating statements and rent rolls of
the related Mortgaged Property, and financial statements of such Mortgagor, if
delivery of such items is required pursuant to the terms of the related
Mortgage. In addition, the Special Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to
obtain quarterly and annual operating statements and rent rolls with respect to
each REO Property. The Master Servicer and Special Servicer shall each deliver
copies of the collected items to the other such party and to the Trustee, in
each case within 20 days of its receipt thereof; and, within 5 days of its
receipt of any such item, the Trustee shall forward a copy to the Depositor and
the Rating Agencies.
Section 8.18 Modifications, Waivers, Amendments and Consents.
(a) The Special Servicer and the Master Servicer each may agree to any
modification, waiver or amendment of any term of, forgive interest on and
principal of, capitalize interest on, permit the release, addition or
substitution of collateral securing, and/or permit the release of the Mortgagor
on or any guarantor of any Mortgage Loan it is required to service and
administer hereunder, without the consent of the Trustee or, except as
contemplated by clause (i) and clause (iii) below, any Certificateholder,
subject, however, to each of the following limitations, conditions and
restrictions:
(i) other than as provided in Sections 8.2 and 8.6, the Master
Servicer (in such capacity) shall not in any event agree to any
modification, waiver or amendment of any term of, or take any of the other
acts referenced in this Section 8.18(a) with respect to, any Mortgage Loan
that would affect the amount or timing of any related payment of principal,
interest or other amount payable thereunder or, in the Master Servicer's
good faith and reasonable judgment, materially impair the security for such
Mortgage Loan or reduce the likelihood of timely payment of amounts due
thereon; and, other than as provided in Sections 8.2 and 8.6, the Special
Servicer (in such capacity) shall not agree to any modification, waiver or
amendment of any term of, or take any of the other acts referenced in this
Section 8.18(a) with respect to, a Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan that
would have any such effect, unless (A) a material default on such Mortgage
Loan has occurred or, in the Special Servicer's reasonable and good faith
judgment, a default in respect of payment on such Mortgage Loan is
reasonably foreseeable, and such modification, waiver, amendment or other
action is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery to
Certificateholders on a present value basis, than would liquidation, and
(B) if such modification, waiver or amendment accomplishes any of the
following, the Special Servicer has obtained the written consent of the
Holders of Certificates entitled to more than 50% of the Voting Rights
allocated to the most senior Class of Principal Balance Certificates then
outstanding (the Class A Certificates to be treated as a single Class for
this purpose) that has a Class Principal Balance at least equal to 25% of
its original Class Principal Balance: (1) extends the maturity date of such
Mortgage Loan beyond the third
-136-
anniversary of its Stated Maturity Date, to a date later than three years
prior to the Final Rated Distribution Date or, in the case of any Mortgage
Loan secured by a Mortgage on the Mortgagor's leasehold estate, beyond the
date that is ten years prior to the expiration of such leasehold, (2)
reduces the Mortgage Rate of any Fixed Rate Mortgage Loan below the lesser
of 5% per annum and the then current rate on one-year Treasury securities,
or (3) permits the deferral of interest without the accrual of interest at
the related Mortgage Rate on the amount so deferred;
(ii) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall make
or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of, or take any
of the other acts referenced in this Section 8.18(a) with respect to, any
Mortgage Loan that would (A) cause REMIC I, REMIC II or REMIC III to fail
to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or result in the imposition of any tax
on "prohibited transactions" or "contributions" after the Startup Day of
any such REMIC Pool under the REMIC Provisions, (B) cause any Mortgage Loan
to cease to be a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning of Section
860G(a)(3) of the Code or (C) give rise to an Adverse REMIC Event in
respect of any REMIC Pool (neither the Master Servicer nor the Special
Servicer shall be liable for judgments as regards decisions made under this
subsection which were made in good faith and, unless it would constitute
bad faith or negligence to do so, each of the Master Servicer and the
Special Servicer may rely on opinions of counsel (at the expense of the
Mortgagor or, if not available, at the expense of the Trust) in making such
decisions);
(iii) the Special Servicer shall not agree to extend the maturity date
of any Mortgage Loan to a date later than two years prior to the Final
Rated Distribution Date without the consent of all the Certificateholders;
(iv) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall permit
any Mortgagor to add or substitute any collateral for an outstanding
Mortgage Loan, which collateral constitutes real property, unless the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall have
first determined, in its reasonable and good faith judgment, based upon an
Environmental Assessment (and such additional environmental testing as the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, deems
necessary and appropriate) prepared by an Independent Person who regularly
conducts Environmental Assessments (and such additional environmental
testing), at the expense of the Mortgagor, that such additional or
substitute collateral is in compliance with applicable Environmental Laws
and that there are no circumstances or conditions present with respect to
such new collateral relating to the use, management or disposal of any
Hazardous Materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring,
containment, clean-up or remediation would be required under any then
applicable environmental laws and/or regulations; and
(v) neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall release
or substitute any collateral securing an outstanding Mortgage Loan except
as provided in Section 8.7(d) and except in the case of a release where (A)
the use of the collateral to be released will not, in the Master Servicer's
or Special Servicer's, as the case may be, good faith and reasonable
judgment, materially and adversely affect the net cash flow being generated
by or the use of the related Mortgaged Property, (B) there is a
corresponding
-137-
principal paydown of such Mortgage Loan in an amount at least equal to, or
a delivery of substitute collateral with an appraised value at least equal
to, the appraised value of the collateral to be released, (C) the remaining
Mortgaged Property and any substitute collateral is, in the Master
Servicer's or Special Servicer's, as the case may be, good faith and
reasonable judgment, adequate security for the remaining Mortgage Loan and
(D) such release and/or substitution would not result in the downgrade,
qualification or withdrawal of the rating then assigned by any Rating
Agency to any Class of Certificates (as confirmed in writing by each Rating
Agency);
provided that (x) the limitations, conditions and restrictions set forth in
clauses (i) through (v) above shall not apply to any modification of any term of
any Mortgage Loan or any of the other acts referenced in this Section 8.18(a)
that is required under the terms of such Mortgage Loan in effect on the Closing
Date, and (y) notwithstanding clauses (i) through (v) above, neither the Master
Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be required to oppose the confirmation
of a plan in any bankruptcy or similar proceeding involving a Mortgagor if in
their reasonable and good faith judgment such opposition would not ultimately
prevent the confirmation of such plan or one substantially similar.
(b) The Special Servicer shall have no liability to the Trust Fund, the
Certificateholders or any other Person if its analysis and determination that
the modification, waiver, amendment or other action contemplated by Section
8.18(a) is reasonably likely to produce a greater recovery to Certificateholders
on a present value basis than would liquidation, should prove to be wrong or
incorrect, so long as the analysis and determination were made on a reasonable
basis in good faith by the Special Servicer and the Special Servicer was not
negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts.
(c) Any payment of interest, which is deferred pursuant to any
modification, waiver or amendment permitted hereunder, shall not, for purposes
hereof, including, without limitation, calculating monthly distributions to
Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related
Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan or such
modification, waiver or amendment so permit.
(d) The Master Servicer and, with respect to a Specially Serviced Mortgaged
Loan, the Special Servicer each may, as a condition to its granting any request
by a Mortgagor for consent, modification, waiver or indulgence or any other
matter or thing, the granting of which is within the Master Servicer's or the
Special Servicer's discretion pursuant to the terms of the instruments
evidencing or securing the related Mortgage Loan and is permitted by the terms
of this Agreement, require that such Mortgagor pay to it, as additional
servicing compensation, a reasonable or customary fee (not to exceed 1.0% of the
unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan) for the additional
services performed in connection with such request, together with any related
costs and expenses incurred by it.
(e) All modifications, waivers (except for waivers of Penalty Charges) and
amendments of the Mortgage Loans entered into pursuant to this Section 8.18
shall be in writing.
(f) Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall notify the
Trustee
-138-
and such other party, in writing, of any modification, waiver or amendment of
any term of any Mortgage Loan and the date thereof, and shall deliver to the
Trustee or the related Custodian for deposit in the related Mortgage File, an
original counterpart of the agreement relating to such modification, waiver or
amendment, promptly (and in any event within 10 Business Days) following the
execution thereof.
Section 8.19 Title to REO Property.
(a) If title to any REO Property is acquired, the deed or certificate of
sale shall be issued in the name of the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders. The Special Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, shall in
accordance with Section 8.31 attempt to sell any REO Property for cash within
two years after the Trust Fund acquires ownership of such REO Property for
purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code, unless the Special Servicer either
(i) applies for, more than 60 days prior to the expiration of such two-year
period, and is subsequently granted an extension of time (an "REO Extension") by
the Internal Revenue Service to sell such REO Property, or (ii) obtains for the
Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Special
Servicer, to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such REO Property
subsequent to the second anniversary of such acquisition will not result in the
imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of REMIC I, REMIC II or REMIC
III as defined in Section 860F of the Code or cause REMIC I, REMIC II or REMIC
III to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are
outstanding. If the Special Servicer is granted the REO Extension contemplated
by clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence or obtains the Opinion of
Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, the
Special Servicer shall attempt to sell such REO Property within such period
longer than two years as is permitted by such REO Extension or is contemplated
by such Opinion of Counsel, as the case may be. Any expense incurred by the
Special Servicer in connection with its being granted the REO Extension
contemplated by clause (i) of the second preceding sentence or its obtaining the
Opinion of Counsel contemplated by clause (ii) of the second preceding sentence,
shall be an expense of the Trust Fund payable out of the Collection Account
pursuant to Section 5.2.
(b) The Special Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, in the
Collection Account, or shall deliver to the Master Servicer (which shall deposit
such amounts into the Collection Account), upon receipt, all REO Income (net of
the fees of any property manager and net of any expenses payable therefrom),
Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds received in
respect of an REO Property, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 5.2.
Section 8.20 Management of REO Property.
(a) Prior to the acquisition of title to any Mortgaged Property securing a
defaulted Mortgage Loan, the Special Servicer shall review the operation of such
Mortgaged Property and determine the nature of the income that would be derived
from such property if it were acquired by the Trust. If the Special Servicer
determines from such review, in its good faith and reasonable judgment, that:
(i) None of the income from Directly Operating such Mortgaged
-139-
Property would be subject to tax as "net income from foreclosure property"
within the meaning of the REMIC Provisions or would be subject to the tax
imposed on "prohibited transactions" under Section 860F of the Code (either
such tax referred to herein as an "REO Tax"), then such Mortgaged Property
may be Directly Operated by the Special Servicer as REO Property;
(ii) Directly Operating such Mortgaged Property as an REO Property
could result in income from such Mortgaged Property that would be subject
to an REO Tax, but that a lease of such Mortgaged Property to another party
to operate such Mortgaged Property, or the performance of some services by
an Independent Contractor with respect to such Mortgaged Property, or
another method of operating such Mortgaged Property would not result in
income subject to an REO Tax, then the Special Servicer may (provided that,
in the good faith and reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer, it is
commercially feasible) acquire such Mortgaged Property as REO Property and
so lease or operate such REO Property; or
(iii) Directly Operating such Mortgaged Property as REO Property could
result in income subject to an REO Tax and, in the good faith and
reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer, that no commercially feasible
means exists to operate such Mortgaged Property as REO Property without the
Trust incurring or possibly incurring an REO Tax on income from such
Mortgaged Property, then the Special Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee,
in writing, a proposed plan (the "Proposed Plan") to manage such Mortgaged
Property as REO Property. Such plan shall include potential sources of
income, and to the extent commercially feasible, estimates of the amount of
income from each such source. Within a reasonable period of time after
receipt of such plan, the Trustee shall consult with the Special Servicer
and shall advise the Special Servicer of the Trust's federal income tax
reporting position with respect to the various sources of income that the
Trust would derive under the Proposed Plan. In addition, the Trustee shall
(to the maximum extent possible) advise the Special Servicer of the
estimated amount of taxes that the Trust would be required to pay with
respect to each such source of income. After receiving the information
described in the two preceding sentences from the Trustee, the Special
Servicer shall either (A) implement the Proposed Plan (after acquiring the
respective Mortgaged Property as REO Property) or (B) manage and operate
such REO Property in a manner that would not result in the imposition of an
REO Tax on the income derived from such REO Property.
The Special Servicer's decision as to how each REO Property shall be
managed and operated shall in any event be based on the good faith and
reasonable judgment of the Special Servicer as to which means would (to the
extent commercially feasible) maximize the net after-tax REO Income received by
the Trust with respect to such REO Property without materially and adversely
affecting the Special Servicer's ability to sell such REO Property in accordance
with this Agreement and, to the extent consistent with the foregoing, in
accordance with the same manner that the Special Servicer would operate and
manage such REO Property if it were owned by the Special Servicer. Both the
Special Servicer and the Trustee may consult with counsel knowledgeable in such
matters at the expense of the Trust Fund in connection with determinations
required under this Section 8.20(a). Neither the Special Servicer nor the
Trustee shall be liable
-140-
to the Certificateholders, the Trust, the other parties hereto or each other for
errors in judgment made in good faith in the reasonable exercise of their
discretion while performing their respective responsibilities under this Section
8.20(a) or, to the extent it relates to federal income tax consequences for the
Trust, Section 8.20(b) below. Nothing in this Section 8.20(a) is intended to
prevent the sale of a Defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property pursuant to the
terms and subject to the conditions of Section 8.31.
(b) If title to any REO Property is acquired, the Special Servicer shall
manage, conserve, protect and operate such REO Property for the benefit of the
Certificateholders solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in
a manner that does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as
"foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or,
except as permitted by Section 8.20(a), result in the receipt by the Trust of
any "income from non-permitted assets" within the meaning of Section
860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code or any "net income from foreclosure property" which is
subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions. Subject to the foregoing,
however, the Special Servicer shall have full power and authority to do any and
all things in connection therewith as are in the best interests of and for the
benefit of the Certificateholders (as determined by the Special Servicer in its
good faith and reasonable judgment) and, consistent therewith, shall direct the
Master Servicer to withdraw from the Collection Account, to the extent of
amounts on deposit therein with respect to each REO Property, and deliver to the
Special Servicer (for appropriate application), funds necessary for the proper
operation, management and maintenance of such REO Property, including, without
limitation:
(i) all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such REO
Property;
(ii) all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of such REO
Property that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon;
(iii) any ground rents in respect of such REO Property; and
(iv) all costs and expenses necessary to maintain such REO Property.
To the extent that amounts on deposit in the Collection Account in respect of
any REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) -
(iv) above with respect to such REO Property, the Master Servicer (at the
direction of the Special Servicer) shall advance from its own funds such amount
as is necessary for such purposes unless (as evidenced by an Officer's
Certificate delivered to the Trustee) the Special Servicer would not make such
advances if the Special Servicer owned such REO Property or if such advances
would, if made, constitute Nonrecoverable Advances; provided, however, that the
Master Servicer (at the direction of the Special Servicer) shall make any such
Servicing Advance if it is a necessary fee or expense incurred in connection
with the defense or prosecution of legal proceedings and such advance will be
deemed to constitute a recoverable Servicing Advance.
(c) The Special Servicer may contract with any Independent Contractor for
the operation and management of any REO Property, provided that:
-141-
(i) the terms and conditions of any such contract may not be
inconsistent herewith and shall reflect an agreement reached at arm's
length;
(ii) the fees of such Independent Contractor (which shall be an
expense of the Trust, payable out of related REO Income) shall be
reasonable and customary in light of the nature and locality of the REO
Property;
(iii) any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to
require, that the Independent Contractor (A) pay all costs and expenses
incurred in connection with the operation and management of such REO
Property, including, without limitation, those listed in subsection (b) of
this Section 8.20 and (B) remit all related REO Income collected (net of
its fees and such costs and expenses) to the Special Servicer upon receipt;
(iv) none of the provisions of this Section 8.20(c) relating to any
such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent Contractor
shall be deemed to relieve the Special Servicer of any of its duties and
obligations hereunder with respect to the operation and management of any
such REO Property; and
(v) the Special Servicer shall be obligated with respect thereto to
the same extent as if it alone were performing all duties and obligations
in connection with the operation and management of such REO Property.
The Special Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any
Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and
obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Special Servicer by such
Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit
or modify such indemnification.
Section 8.21 Additional Obligations of the Master Servicer.
(a) In connection with each Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loan (including
without limitation any such Mortgage Loan that is an REO Mortgage Loan), the
Master Servicer shall calculate adjustments in the Mortgage Rate and the Monthly
Payment and, except in the case of an REO Mortgage Loan, shall notify the
Mortgagor of such adjustments, all in accordance with the Mortgage Note and
applicable law. In the event the Index for any such Adjustable Rate Mortgage
Loan is not published or is otherwise unavailable, the Master Servicer shall
select a comparable alternative index with respect to such Mortgage Loan over
which it has no direct control, which is readily verifiable and which is
acceptable under the terms of the related Mortgage Note.
(b) The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each deliver to the
other and to the Trustee (for inclusion in the Mortgage File) copies of all
Appraisals, environmental reports and engineering reports (or, in each case,
updates thereof) obtained with respect to any Mortgaged Property or REO
Property.
(c) The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the
Distribution Account on each P&I Advance Date, without any right of
reimbursement therefor,
-142-
an amount equal to the excess, if any, of all Balloon Payment Interest
Shortfalls over all Balloon Payment Interest Excesses, in each case resulting
from Balloon Payments received in respect of the Mortgage Pool during the most
recently ended Collection Period.
(d) The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the
Distribution Account on each P&I Advance Date, without any right of
reimbursement therefor, an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the excess, if any,
of all Prepayment Interest Shortfalls over all Prepayment Interest Excesses, in
each case resulting from Principal Prepayments received in respect of the
Mortgage Pool during the most recently ended Collection Period, and (ii) that
portion of the aggregate Master Servicing Fees received by the Master Servicer
during such Collection Period calculated in respect of all the Mortgage Loans
(including without limitation REO Mortgage Loans) at a rate of 0.05% per annum.
(e) With respect to each Callable Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall
take all actions required under the related Call Option and applicable law
(including without limitation the giving of all notices in the appropriate
format(s)) to make such Mortgage Loan due and owing in its entirety as of the
Call Date.
Section 8.22 Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Master
Servicer and the Special Servicer.
(a) GMACCM, in its capacity as both Master Servicer and Special Servicer
hereunder, hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee, for its own benefit
and the benefit of the Certificateholders, and to the Depositor, as of the
Closing Date, that:
(i) GMACCM is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing as
a corporation under the laws of the State of California, and shall be and
thereafter remain, in compliance with the laws of each State in which any

comply would not materially adversely affect the GMACCM's ability to
perform its obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement;
(ii) GMACCM has the full power and authority to execute, deliver,
perform, and to enter into and consummate all transactions and obligations
contemplated by, this Agreement. GMACCM has duly and validly authorized the

parties hereto, evidences the valid and binding obligation of GMACCM
enforceable against GMACCM in accordance with its terms subject, as to
enforcement of remedies, (A) to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization,
insolvency, moratorium, receivership and other similar laws affecting
creditors' rights generally as from time to time in effect, (B) to general
principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (C) public policy
considerations underlying the securities laws to the extent that such
considerations limit the enforceability of the provisions of the Agreement
that purport to provide for indemnification for securities law violations;
-143-
(iii) the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the fulfillment of or
compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement on the part of
GMACCM will not (A) result in a breach of any term or provision of its
charter or by-laws or (B) conflict with, result in a breach, violation or
acceleration of, or result in a default under, the terms of any other
material agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it may
be bound, or any law, governmental rule, regulation, or judgment, decree or
order applicable to it of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency
or governmental body having jurisdiction over it, which would materially
and adversely affect its ability to perform its obligations under this
Agreement;
(iv) no litigation is pending or, to GMACCM's knowledge, threatened
against it, the outcome of which could reasonably be expected to materially

enforceability against, GMACCM of this Agreement or its ability to service
the Mortgage Loans or to perform any of its other obligations hereunder in
accordance with the terms hereof;

the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, other than any
such consents, approvals, authorizations, qualifications, registrations,
filings or notices as have been obtained or made or where the lack of such
consent, approval, authorization, qualification, registration, filing or
notice would not have a material adverse effect on the performance of
GMACCM under this Agreement; and
(vi) the performance of the services by the Master Servicer
contemplated by this Agreement are in the ordinary course of business of
the Master Servicer.
(b) It is understood that the representations and warranties set forth in
this Section 8.22 shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.
(c) Upon discovery by any of the parties hereto of a breach of any of the
foregoing representations and warranties which materially and adversely affects
the interests of the Certificateholders or any party hereto, the party
discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to each of the other
parties hereto.
(d) Any successor Master Servicer or Special Servicer shall be deemed to
have made, as of the date of its succession, each of the representations set
forth in Section 8.22(a), subject to such appropriate modifications to the
representation and warranty set forth in Section 8.22(a)(i) to accurately
reflect such successor's jurisdiction of organization and whether it is a
corporation, partnership, bank, association or other type of organization. In
any such case, the term "GMACCM" shall be deemed to mean Master Servicer or
Special Servicer, as appropriate.
-144-
Section 8.23 Merger or Consolidation. Any Person into which the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any Person
resulting from any merger, conversion, other change in form or consolidation to
which the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall be a party, or any
Person succeeding to the business of the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, shall be the successor of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer,
as the case may be, hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or
any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided, however,
that each Rating Agency provides the Trustee with written acknowledgment that
none of its ratings of the Certificates in effect immediately prior to such
merger, consolidation, or succession will be qualified, reduced or withdrawn as
a result of such merger, consolidation or succession.
Section 8.24 Resignation of Master Servicer or Special Servicer.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.24(b) hereof, neither the
Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall resign from the obligations and
duties hereby imposed on it, unless there is a 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
(the other activities so causing such conflict being of a type and nature
carried on by it at the date of this Agreement). Any such determination
permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall
be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Trustee.
No such resignation shall become effective until a successor servicer designated
by the Trustee, with the consent of the Depositor, shall have assumed the Master
Servicer's or Special Servicer's, as the case may be, responsibilities and
obligations under this Agreement and Rating Agency Confirmation shall have been
obtained. Notice of such resignation shall be given promptly by the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to the Trustee.
(b) The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer may each resign from the
obligations and duties imposed on it, upon 30 days notice to the Trustee,
provided that (i) a successor servicer (x) is available, (y) has assets of at
least $15,000,000 and (z) is willing to assume the obligations,
responsibilities, and covenants to be performed hereunder by the resigning party
Master Servicer on substantially the same terms and conditions, and for not more
than equivalent compensation, to that herein provided; (ii) the resigning party
bears all costs associated with its resignation and the transfer of servicing;
and (iii) Rating Agency Confirmation is obtained with respect to such servicing
transfer, as evidenced by a letter delivered to the Trustee by each Rating
Agency.
Section 8.25 Assignment or Delegation of Duties by Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each have
the right without the prior written consent of the Trustee to assign and
delegate all of its duties hereunder; provided, however, that (i) the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, gives the Depositor and
the Trustee notice of such assignment and delegation; (ii) such purchaser or
transferee accepting such assignment and delegation executes and delivers to the
Depositor and the Trustee an agreement accepting such assignment, which contains
an assumption by such Person of the rights, powers, duties, responsibilities,
obligations and liabilities of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as
the case may be, with like effect as if originally named as a
-145-
party to this Agreement; (iii) the purchaser or transferee has assets in excess
of $15,000,000; (iv) each Rating Agency provides written acknowledgment that
none of its ratings of the Certificates in effect immediately prior to such
assignment and delegation will be qualified, withdrawn or downgraded as a result
of such assignment and delegation; and (v) the Depositor consents to such
assignment and delegation, such consent not be unreasonably withheld. In the
case of any such assignment and delegation in accordance with the requirements
of this Section, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may
be, shall be released from its obligations under this Agreement, except that the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, shall remain liable
for all liabilities and obligations incurred by it as the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder prior to the satisfaction of the
conditions to such assignment set forth in the preceding sentence.
Notwithstanding the above, each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer
may each appoint Sub-Servicers in accordance with Section 8.4 hereof and,
provided that the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer remains fully liable
for their actions, agents or independent contractors appointed or retained to
perform select duties thereof.
Section 8.26 Limitation on Liability of Master Servicer, Special Servicer
and Others.
(a) None of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any of their
respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be under any liability
to the holders of the Certificates, the Trust or any other party hereto for any
action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith using
reasonable business judgment pursuant to this Agreement; provided that this
provision shall not protect the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any
such Person against any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant
contained herein or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of
willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in its performance of duties under
this Agreement or by reason of negligent disregard of obligations and duties
hereunder. The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and any director, officer,
employee or agent of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer may rely in
good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and
submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. Neither the
Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear
in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its duties
under this Agreement; provided that the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer
each may in its sole discretion undertake any such action which it may
reasonably deem necessary or desirable in order to protect the interests of the
Certificateholders and the Trustee in the Mortgage Loans for which it is
responsible hereunder or otherwise under this Agreement and shall undertake any
such action if instructed to do so by the Trustee. In such event, all legal
expenses and costs of such action shall be expenses and costs of the Trust, and
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, shall be entitled to
be reimbursed therefor as Servicing Advances as provided by Section 5.2.
(b) In addition, neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall
have any liability with respect to, and each shall be entitled to conclusively
rely as to the truth of the statements made and the correctness of the opinions
expressed therein on, any certificates or opinions furnished to the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, and conforming to the
requirements of this Agreement. Subject to the Servicing Standard, the Master
-146-
and the Special Servicer each shall have the right to rely on information
provided to it by the other and by the Mortgagors, and will have no duty to
investigate or verify the accuracy thereof.
(c) Neither the Master Servicer nor the Special Servicer shall be obligated
to incur any liabilities, costs, charges, fees or other expenses which relate to
or arise from any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by the
Depositor, the Fiscal Agent or Trustee in this Agreement.
Section 8.27 Indemnification; Third-Party Claims.
(a) The Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and each of their respective
directors, officers, employees and agents shall be indemnified by the Trust and
held harmless against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, liabilities, fees
and expenses incurred in connection with any legal action brought against the
Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or any such other Person relating to this
Agreement, the Certificates or any asset of the Trust Fund, other than any loss,
liability or expense: (i) specifically required to be borne by such Person
pursuant to the terms hereof; (ii) which constitutes a Servicing Advance (and is
otherwise specifically reimbursable hereunder); or (iii) which was incurred in
connection with claims against such party resulting from (A) any breach of a
representation, warranty or covenant made herein by such party, (B) willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of obligations or duties
hereunder by such party, or from negligent disregard of such obligations or
duties, or (C) any violation by such party of any state or federal securities
law. Each of the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall promptly notify
the Trustee if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement,
the Certificates or any asset of the Trust Fund entitling the Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to indemnification hereunder,
whereupon the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall assume the defense of any
such claim (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as applicable) and pay out of the Collection Account all
expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, and promptly pay,
discharge and satisfy out of the Collection Account any judgment or decree which
may be entered against it or them in respect of such claim. Any failure to so
notify the Trustee shall not affect any rights the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer may have to indemnification under this Agreement or otherwise,
unless the Trust's defense of such claim is prejudiced thereby and the Trustee
delivers a certification explaining the prejudice. The Trustee or the Master
Servicer shall promptly make from the Collection Account any payments certified
by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer to the Trustee as required to be
made to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be,
pursuant to this Section 8.27(a). The indemnification provided herein shall
survive the resignation or termination of the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer.
(b) The Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trust, the Trustee, the
Fiscal Agent, the Special Servicer (if different than the Master Servicer), the
Depositor, and any director, officer, employee or agent thereof, and hold them
harmless against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees
and expenses that any of them may sustain arising from or as a result of the
willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of any of the
Master Servicer's duties hereunder or by reason of negligent disregard of the
Master Servicer's obligations and duties
-147-
hereunder (including a breach of such obligations a substantial motive of which
is to obtain an economic advantage from being released from such obligations),
and if in any such situation the Master Servicer is replaced, the parties hereto
agree that the amount of such claims, losses, penalties, fines, legal fees and
related costs, judgments, and other costs, liabilities, fees and expenses shall
at least equal the incremental costs, if any, of retaining a successor master
servicer. Each of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Special Servicer (if different
than the Master Servicer), and the Fiscal Agent shall immediately notify the
Master Servicer if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this
Agreement, the Certificates or any asset of the Trust Fund entitling the Trust,
the Trustee, the Depositor, the Special Servicer or the Fiscal Agent, as the
case may be, to indemnification hereunder, whereupon the Master Servicer shall
assume the defense of any such claim (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to
the Trustee, the Depositor, the Special Servicer, or the Fiscal Agent, as
applicable) and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel
fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may
be entered against it or them in respect of such claim. Any failure to so notify
the Master Servicer shall not affect any rights the Trust, the Trustee, the
Depositor, the Special Servicer, or the Fiscal Agent may have to indemnification
under this Agreement or otherwise, unless the Master Servicer's defense of such
claim is materially prejudiced thereby and the Master Servicer delivers a
certification explaining the prejudice. The indemnification provided herein
shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or
termination of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the
Fiscal Agent.
(c) The Special Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trust, the Trustee, the
Fiscal Agent, the Master Servicer (if different than the Special Servicer), the
Depositor, and any director, officer, employee or agent thereof, and hold them
harmless against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liabilities, fees
and expenses that any of them may sustain arising from or as a result of the
willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of any of the
Special Servicer's duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of the
Special Servicer's obligations and duties hereunder by the Special Servicer.
Each of the Trustee, the Fiscal Agent, the Master Servicer (if different than
the Special Servicer) and the Depositor shall immediately notify the Special
Servicer if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement, the
Certificates or any asset of the Trust Fund entitling the Trust or the Trustee,
the Fiscal Agent, the Master Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, to
indemnification hereunder, whereupon the Special Servicer shall assume the
defense of any such claim (with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee,
the Fiscal Agent, the Master Servicer or the Depositor, as applicable) and pay
all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, and promptly pay,
discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or
them in respect of such claim. Any failure to so notify the Special Servicer
shall not affect any rights the Trust or the Trustee, the Fiscal Agent, the
Master Servicer or the Depositor may have to indemnification under this
Agreement or otherwise, unless the Special Servicer's defense of such claim is
materially prejudiced thereby. The indemnification provided herein shall survive
the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or termination of the
Special Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Fiscal Agent.
-148-
Section 8.28 Tax Reporting. From and after the Closing Date, the Special
Servicer shall comply with the Mortgagor tax reporting requirements imposed by
Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the Code with respect to any Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loan. The Special Servicer shall provide to the Master
Servicer copies of any such reports. The Master Servicer shall forward such
reports to the Trustee.
Section 8.29 Certain Special Servicer Reports.
(a) The Special Servicer, in the case of any Specially Serviced Mortgage
Loans, shall promptly (and at least on a monthly basis) prepare and deliver the
Specially Serviced Asset Report to the Master Servicer no later than one
Business Day after the first Determination Date occurring no earlier than thirty
days after (A) a Servicing Transfer Event, (B) the completion of a modification
which causes a Mortgage Loan to be a Corrected Mortgage Loan or (C) a Final
Recovery Determination, or at any time the Special Servicer determines, in its
sole discretion exercised in good faith, that a material change has occurred
relating to the Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans covered by the previous
Specially Serviced Asset Report. The Specially Serviced Asset Report shall
contain a narrative description for each Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan of the
current status of such Mortgage Loan including the status of any workout or
foreclosure, the change in such status since the prior Specially Serviced Asset
Report, and other information described in Exhibit F-3.
(b) The Special Servicer shall maintain accurate records, prepared by a
Servicing Officer, of each Final Recovery Determination with respect to any
Mortgage Loan or REO Property and the basis thereof. Each Final Recovery
Determination shall be evidenced by an Officer's Certificate delivered to the
Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Operating Adviser no later than the tenth
Business Day following such Final Recovery Determination.
(c) The Special Servicer, for each Specially Serviced Mortgage Loan, shall
provide to the Master Servicer no later than one Business Day after the
Determination Date in each month, a Special Servicer Monthly Report
substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or in such electronic format as is
mutually acceptable to the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer. The Master
Servicer may use such reports or information contained therein to prepare its
reports and may, at its option, forward such Special Servicer Monthly Reports
directly to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Operating Adviser and the Rating
Agencies.
(d) The Special Servicer shall provide to the Master Servicer, upon written
request, any information in its possession with respect to the Specially
Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties which the Master Servicer shall
require in order for the Master Servicer to comply with its obligations under
this Agreement; provided that, in connection therewith, the Special Servicer
shall not be required to take any action or provide any information that the
Special Servicer determines will result in any material cost or expense for
which it is not entitled to reimbursement hereunder or will result in any
material liability for which it is not indemnified
-149-
hereunder. The Master Servicer will provide the Special Servicer, at the request
of the Special Servicer, with any information in its possession with respect to
the Mortgage Loans which the Special Servicer shall require in order for the
Special Servicer to comply with its obligations under this Agreement.
(e) The Special Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer, the
Depositor, the Trustee and the Operating Adviser all such other information with
respect to the Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties at such
times and to such extent as the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee or
the Operating Adviser, as the case may be, may reasonably request; provided,
however, that the Special Servicer shall not be required to produce any ad hoc
non-standard written reports with respect to such Mortgage Loans except if any
Person (other than the Trustee) requesting such report pays a reasonable fee to
be determined by the Special Servicer.
Section 8.30 Qualification to Service. The Master Servicer and the Special
Servicer shall each keep in full force and effect such qualifications to do
business and any necessary licenses as are necessary to perform its duties under
this Agreement.
Section 8.31 Sale of Defaulted Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.
(a) If any Mortgage Loan becomes a Defaulted Mortgage Loan the Special
Servicer shall promptly so notify in writing the Trustee and the Master
Servicer, and the Trustee shall, within 10 days after receipt of such notice,
notify the Majority Certificateholder, if any, in respect of the Controlling
Class. The Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling Class may at its option
purchase from the Trust, at a price equal to the applicable Purchase Price, any
Defaulted Mortgage Loan (other than any such Defaulted Mortgage Loan that the
Special Servicer determines, in its reasonable and good faith judgment, is in
default to avoid a prepayment restriction). The Purchase Price for any such
Defaulted Mortgage Loan purchased by the Majority Certificateholder of the
Controlling Class shall be deposited into the Collection Account, and the
Trustee, upon receipt of an Officer's Certificate from the Master Servicer to
the effect that such deposit has been made, shall release or cause to be
released to the Certificateholder effecting such purchase the related Mortgage
File, and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment,
in each case without recourse, as shall be provided to it and are reasonably
necessary to vest in the Certificateholder effecting such purchase ownership of
such Mortgage Loan. In connection with any such purchase, the Special Servicer
shall deliver the related Servicing File to the Certificateholder effecting such
purchase.
If the Majority Certificateholder of the Controlling Class has not
purchased any such Defaulted Mortgage Loan within 30 days of its having received
notice in respect thereof pursuant to the preceding paragraph, then the Trustee
shall within 5 days of the end of such 30- day period send notice to the Master
Servicer and the Special Servicer that such Majority Certificateholder has not
purchased such Mortgage Loan, and either the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer may at its option, within 30 days after receipt of such notice,
purchase such Defaulted Mortgage Loan (other than any such Defaulted Mortgage
Loan that the Special Servicer determines, in its reasonable and good faith
judgment, is in default to avoid a prepayment restriction) from the Trust, at a
price equal to the Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for any such Defaulted
Mortgage Loan purchased by the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall be
-150-
deposited into the Collection Account, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an
Officer's Certificate from the Master Servicer to the effect that such deposit
has been made, shall release or cause to be released to the Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer, as applicable, the related Mortgage File, and shall
execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case
without recourse, as shall be provided to it and are reasonably necessary to
vest in the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as applicable, the
ownership of such Mortgage Loan. In connection with any such purchase by the
Master Servicer, the Special Servicer shall deliver the related Servicing File
to the Master Servicer.
(b) The Special Servicer may offer to sell any Defaulted Mortgage Loan not
otherwise purchased pursuant to Section 8.31(a) above, if and when the Special
Servicer determines, consistent with the Servicing Standard, that such a sale
would be in the best economic interests of the Trust. Such offer shall be made
in a commercially reasonable manner (which, for purposes hereof, includes an
offer to sell without representation or warranty other than customary warranties
of title and condition, if liability for breach thereof is limited to recourse
against the Trust) for a period of not less than 30 or greater than 90 days.
Subject to Section 8.31(i), the Special Servicer shall accept the highest cash
bid received from any Person that constitutes a fair price for such Mortgage
Loan. In the absence of any bid determined as provided below to be fair, the
Special Servicer shall proceed with respect to such Defaulted Mortgage Loan in
accordance with Section 8.7.
(c) The Special Servicer shall use its reasonable efforts to solicit offers
for each REO Property in such manner as will be reasonably likely to realize a
fair price within the time period provided for by Section 8.19(a). Subject to
Section 8.31(i), the Special Servicer shall accept the first (and, if multiple
bids are received contemporaneously, highest) cash bid received from any Person
that constitutes a fair price for such REO Property. If the Special Servicer
reasonably believes that it will be unable to realize a fair price for any REO
Property within the time constraints imposed by Section 8.19(a), the Special
Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property upon such terms and conditions as
the Special Servicer shall deem necessary and desirable to maximize the recovery
thereon under the circumstances and in connection therewith, shall accept the
highest outstanding cash bid, regardless of from whom received; provided that
neither the Special Servicer nor any Affiliate thereof may purchase such REO
Property for less than a fair price determined in accordance with Section
8.31(f).
(d) The Special Servicer shall give the Trustee, the Operating Adviser and
the Master Servicer not less than five Business Days' prior written notice of
its intention to sell any Defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property pursuant to
this Section 8.31. No Interested Person shall be obligated to submit a bid to
purchase any such Mortgage Loan or REO Property, and notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein, neither the Trustee, in its individual capacity, nor any of
its Affiliates may bid for or purchase any Defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO
Property pursuant hereto. Whether any bid for any Defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO
Property constitutes a fair price shall be determined by the Special Servicer,
if the highest bidder is other than an Interested Person, and by the Trustee, if
the highest bidder is an Interested Person; provided, however, that no bid from
an Interested Person for less than the applicable Purchase Price shall
constitute a fair price unless (i) it is the highest bid received and (ii) at
least two other bids are received from Independent third parties.
-151-
(e) The proceeds of any sale of a Defaulted Mortgage Loan or an REO
Property (after deduction of the expenses of such sale incurred in connection
therewith) shall be deposited within one Business Day in the Collection Account.
(f) In determining whether any bid received from an Interested Person,
including without limitation the Special Servicer or any Affiliate thereof,
represents a fair price for any Defaulted Mortgage Loan or any REO Property, the
Trustee shall be supplied with and shall rely on the most recent Appraisal or
updated Appraisal conducted in accordance with this Agreement within the
preceding 12-month period or, in the absence of any such Appraisal, on a
narrative appraisal prepared by a Qualified Appraiser, retained by the Special
Servicer. Such appraiser shall be selected by the Special Servicer if the
Special Servicer is not making an offer with respect to a Defaulted Mortgage
Loan or REO Property and shall be selected by the Master Servicer (or, if the
Master Servicer and the Special Servicer are the same Person or are Affiliates,
by the Trustee) if the Special Servicer is making such an offer. The cost of any
such narrative appraisal shall be covered by, and shall be reimbursable as, a
Servicing Advance. In determining whether any offer from a Person other than an
Interested Person constitutes a fair price for any such Mortgage Loan or REO
Property, the Special Servicer shall take into account (in addition to the
results of any Appraisal, updated Appraisal or narrative Appraisal that it may
have obtained pursuant to this Agreement within the prior 12 months), and in
determining whether any offer from an Interested Person constitutes a fair price
for any such Mortgage Loan or REO Property, any appraiser shall be instructed to
take into account, as applicable, among other factors, the period and amount of
any delinquency on the affected Defaulted Mortgage Loan, the occupancy level and
physical condition of the Mortgaged Property or REO Property, the state of the
local economy and the obligation to dispose of any REO Property within the time
period specified in Section 8.19(a). The Purchase Price for any Defaulted
Mortgage Loan or REO Property shall in all cases be deemed a fair price.
(g) Subject to the REMIC Provisions, the Special Servicer shall act on
behalf of the Trust in negotiating and taking any other action necessary or
appropriate in connection with the sale of any Defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO
Property, including the collection of all amounts payable in connection
therewith. Any sale of a Defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property shall be
without recourse to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Special Servicer, the Master
Servicer, or the Trust (except such recourse imposed by those representations
and warranties typically given in such transactions, any prorations applied
thereto and any customary closing matters). None of the Special Servicer, the
Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Fiscal Agent or the Trustee shall have any
liability to the Trust or any Certificateholder with respect to the price at
which a Defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property is sold if the sale is
consummated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(h) Any sale of a Defaulted Mortgage Loan or any REO Property shall be for
cash only.
(i) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 8.31,
the Special Servicer shall not be obligated to accept the highest cash offer if
the Special Servicer determines, in its reasonable and good faith judgment, that
rejection of such offer would be in the best interests of the
Certificateholders, and the Special Servicer may accept a lower cash offer
-152-
(from any Person other than an Interested Person bidding lower than the
applicable Purchase Price) if it determines, in its reasonable and good faith
judgment, that acceptance of such offer would be in the best interests of the
Certificateholders (for example, if the prospective buyer making the lower offer
is more likely to perform its obligations or the terms, other than the amount of
the purchase price, offered by the prospective buyer making the lower offer are
more favorable).
Section 8.32 Operating Adviser; Elections.
(a) In accordance with Section 8.32(c), the Holders of Certificates
representing more than 50% of the Class Principal Balance of the then
Controlling Class shall be entitled to elect an operating adviser (the
"Operating Adviser") with the powers set forth in Section 8.33. An election of
an Operating Adviser may also be held upon the resignation or removal of any
Person acting as Operating Adviser. The initial election of an Operating Adviser
may be held at any time on or after the Closing Date.
(b) At the request of the Holders of Certificates representing at least 50%
of the Class Principal Balance of the then Controlling Class, the Trustee shall
call a meeting of the Holders of the Controlling Class for purpose of electing
an Operating Adviser. Notice of the meeting shall be mailed or delivered by the
Trustee to each Holder of Certificates of the Controlling Class not less than 10
nor more than 60 days prior to the meeting. The notice shall state the place and
the time of the meeting, which may be held by telephone. Holders of Certificates
representing a majority of the Class Principal Balance of the then Controlling
Class, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for
the nomination of an Operating Adviser. At the meeting, each Holder shall be
entitled to nominate one Person to act as Operating Adviser. The Trustee shall
cause the election of the Operating Adviser to be held as soon thereafter as is
reasonably practicable.
(c) Each Holder of Certificates of the Controlling Class shall be entitled
to vote in each election of the Operating Adviser. The voting in each election
of the Operating Adviser shall be in writing mailed, telecopied, delivered or
sent by courier and actually received by the Trustee on or prior to the date of
such election. Immediately upon receipt by the Trustee of votes (which have not
been rescinded) from the Holders of Certificates representing more than 50% of
the Class Principal Balance of the then Controlling Class which are cast for a
single Person, such Person shall be, upon such Person's acceptance, the
Operating Adviser. The Trustee shall act as judge of each election and, absent
manifest error, the determination of the results of any election by the Trustee
shall be conclusive. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 8.32,
the Trustee may make such reasonable regulations as it may deem advisable for
any election.
(d) The Operating Adviser may be removed at any time by the written vote,
copies of which must be delivered to the Trustee, of the Holders of the
Certificates representing more than 50% of the Class Principal Balance of the
then Controlling Class.
(e) For purposes of electing or removing an Operating Adviser, Certificates
of the Controlling Class held by the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer or by any Affiliate of any of them shall be taken into account
with the same force and effect as if any other
-153-
Person held such Certificates.
Section 8.33 Duties of Operating Adviser.
(a) If an Operating Adviser has been elected and is currently acting in
such capacity, then, prior to the Special Servicer's taking any of the following
actions, the Special Servicer shall notify such Operating Adviser of its
intention to take such action:
(i) any foreclosure upon or comparable conversion (which may include
acquisition of an REO Property) of the ownership of properties securing
such of the Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in
default;
(ii) any modification of a Money Term of a Mortgage Loan (other than a
modification consisting of the extension of the original Maturity Date of
such Mortgage Loan for two years or less);
(iii) any sale of a Defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property pursuant
to Section 8.31;
(iv) any determination to bring a Mortgaged Property or an REO
Property into compliance with Environmental Laws; and
(v) any acceptance of substitute or additional collateral for a
Mortgage Loan.
(b) The Operating Adviser, if any, may direct the Trustee to remove the
Special Servicer at any time effective upon the appointment and written
acceptance of such appointment by a successor to the Special Servicer appointed
by the Operating Adviser; provided that, prior to the effectiveness of any such
appointment the Operating Adviser and the Trustee shall have received: (i)
Rating Agency Confirmation from each of DCR and Moody's; and (ii) an Opinion of
Counsel (which shall not be an expense of the Trustee or Trust) to the effect
that the designation of such successor to serve as Special Servicer is in
compliance with this Section 8.33(b) and all other applicable provisions of this
Agreement, that upon the execution and delivery of the written acceptance
referred to above, the designated successor shall be bound by the terms of this
Agreement and that this Agreement shall be enforceable against the designated
successor in accordance with its terms. The existing Special Servicer shall be
deemed to have resigned simultaneously with such designated successor's becoming
the Special Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that (i) the resigning
Special Servicer shall continue to be entitled to receive all amounts accrued or
owing to it under this Agreement on or prior to the effective date of such
resignation, whether in respect of Servicing Advances or otherwise, and (ii) it
and its directors, officers, employees and agents shall continue to be entitled
to the benefits of Sections 8.26 and 8.27, notwithstanding any such resignation.
Such resigning Special Servicer shall cooperate with the Trustee and the
replacement Special Servicer in effecting the termination of the resigning
Special Servicer's responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without
limitation, the transfer within two Business Days to the replacement Special
Servicer for administration by it of all cash amounts that shall at the time be
or should have been deposited in the Collection Account or
-154-
delivered by the Special Servicer to the Master Servicer or that are thereafter
received with respect to Specially Serviced Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.
Section 8.34 Exchange Act Reporting. The Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Trustee and the Fiscal Agent shall reasonably cooperate with the
Depositor in connection with the Depositor's satisfying the reporting
requirements in respect of the Trust under the Exchange Act. The Depositor shall
seek from the Securities and Exchange Commission a no-action letter or other
exemptive relief relating to reduced reporting requirements in respect of the
Trust under the Exchange Act and shall, in accordance with and to the extent
permitted by applicable law, file a Form 15 relating to the automatic
termination of reporting in respect of the Trust under the Exchange Act.

reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its
creditors, voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations, or take any
corporate action in furtherance of the foregoing; or
(ix) the Trustee shall have received written notice from either Rating
Agency that the continuation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer
in such capacity would result in the downgrade, qualification or withdrawal
of any rating then assigned by such Rating Agency to any Class of
Certificates.
(b) If any Event of Default with respect to the Master Servicer or the
Special
-156-
Servicer (in either case for purposes of this Section 7.01(b), the "Defaulting
Party") shall occur and be continuing, then, and in each and every such case, so
long as such Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Depositor or the
Trustee may terminate, and at the written direction of the Holders of
Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights, the Trustee shall
terminate, by notice in writing to the Defaulting Party, with a copy of such
notice to the Depositor (if the termination is effected by the Trustee) or to
the Trustee (if the termination is effected by the Depositor), all of the rights
and obligations of the Defaulting Party under this Agreement and in and to the
Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof (other than any rights of the Defaulting
Party as Certificateholder). From and after the receipt by the Defaulting Party
of such written notice, all authority and power of the Defaulting Party under
this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (other than as a Holder
of any Certificate) or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be
vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under this Section, and, without
limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and
deliver, on behalf of and at the expense of the Defaulting Party, 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 and the Special Servicer each agrees that if it
is terminated pursuant to this Section 9.1(b), it shall promptly (and in any
event no later than ten Business Days subsequent to its receipt of the notice of
termination) provide the Trustee with all documents and records requested by the
Trustee to enable it or a successor servicer to assume the Master Servicer's or
Special Servicer's, as the case may be, functions hereunder, and shall cooperate
with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer's or
Special Servicer's, as the case may be, responsibilities and rights hereunder,
including, without limitation, the transfer within two Business Days to the
Trustee or a successor servicer for administration by it of all cash amounts
which shall at the time be or should have been credited by the Master Servicer
or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, to the Collection Account, the
Distribution Account or any Servicing Account or thereafter be received with
respect to the Mortgage Loans or any REO Property (provided, however, that the
Master Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall continue to be entitled to
receive all amounts accrued or owing to it under this Agreement on or prior to
the date of such termination, whether in respect of Advances made by it or
otherwise, and it and its directors, officers, employees and agents shall
continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 8.26 and 8.27
notwithstanding any such termination).
Section 9.2 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
On and after the time the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer receives
a notice of termination pursuant to Section 9.1, the Trustee shall be the
successor in all respects to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the
case may be, in its capacity as such under this Agreement and the transactions
set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the
responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter
placed on the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, by
the terms and provisions hereof, including, without limitation, the Master
Servicer's obligation to make P&I Advances; provided that any failure to perform
such duties or responsibilities caused by the Master Servicer's or the Special
Servicer's failure to provide information or monies required by Section 9.1
shall not be considered a default by the Trustee hereunder. The Trustee shall
not be liable for any of the
-157-
representations and warranties of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer
nor shall the Trustee be required to purchase any Mortgage Loan hereunder. As
compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to the applicable Servicing
Fees and all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans which the Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer would have been entitled to charge to the Collection
Account if the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer had continued to act
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 if the Holders of Certificates
entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights so request in writing to the
Trustee or if it is not appropriately rated as a master servicer or special
servicer, as the case may be, by each Rating Agency, promptly appoint a mortgage
loan servicing institution that has a net worth of not less than $15,000,000 and
is otherwise acceptable to each Rating Agency (as evidenced by written
confirmation therefrom to the effect that the appointment of such institution
would not result in the downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of any of its
ratings then assigned to the Certificates), as the successor to the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder in the
assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder. No
appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as
the case may be, hereunder shall be effective until the assumption by the
successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, of
all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder. Pending appointment of a
successor to the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be,
hereunder, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided and
shall be entitled to such compensation as would otherwise have been payable to
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be. In connection
with any such appointment and assumption described herein, the Trustee may make
such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on
Mortgage Loans or otherwise as it and such successor shall agree; provided,
however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the
resigning or terminated party hereunder. The Depositor, the Trustee and such
successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be
necessary to effectuate any such succession.
Section 9.3 Notification to Certificateholders.
(a) Upon any resignation of the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer
pursuant to Section 8.24, any termination of the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer pursuant to Section 9.1 or any appointment of a successor to the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 9.2, the Trustee shall give
prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective
addresses appearing in the Certificate Register.
(b) Not later than the later of (i) 60 days after the occurrence of any
event which constitutes or, with notice or lapse of time or both, would
constitute an Event of Default and (ii) five days after the Trustee discovers or
is notified of the occurrence of such an event, the Trustee shall transmit by
mail to the Depositor and all Certificateholders notice of such occurrence,
unless such default shall have been cured.
-158-
Section 9.4 Waiver of Events of Default.
The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 662/3% of the Voting
Rights allocated to the respective Classes of Certificates affected by any Event
of Default hereunder may waive such Event of Default; provided, however, that an
Event of Default under clause (i) or (ii) of Section 9.1 may be waived only by
all of the Certificateholders. Upon any such waiver of an Event of Default, such
Event of Default shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied
for every purpose hereunder; provided, however, that the Trustee shall be
entitled to reimbursement pursuant to Section 7.12 for any costs and expenses
incurred as a result of such Event of Default. No such waiver shall extend to
any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon
except to the extent expressly so waived. Notwithstanding any other provisions
of this Agreement, for purposes of waiving any Event of Default pursuant to this
Section 9.4, Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or any
Affiliate of the Depositor shall be entitled to the same Voting Rights with
respect to the matters described above as they would if any other Person held
such Certificates.
ARTICLE X
PURCHASE AND
TERMINATION OF THE TRUST
Section 10.1 Termination of Trust.
(a) The Trust and the respective obligations and responsibilities of the
Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Fiscal
Agent hereunder (other than the obligation of the Trustee to make payments to
Certificateholders on the final Distribution Date pursuant to Section 6.4 or
otherwise as set forth in Section 10.2 and other than the obligations in the
nature of information or tax reporting or tax-related administrative or judicial
contests or proceedings) shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the later of (A)
the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan held by the
Trust and (B) the disposition of the last REO Property held by the Trust and
(ii) the sale of all Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties held by the Trust in
accordance with Section 10.1(b); provided 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.
(b) As soon as reasonably practical, the Trustee shall give the Depositor,
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Class R-I Certificateholders
notice of the date when the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the
Principal Balances Certificates, after giving effect to distributions of
principal made on the next Distribution Date, will be less than or equal to 3%
of the Initial Pool Balance. The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer and the Holders of Class R-I Certificates representing a majority
Percentage Interest in such Class shall thereafter be entitled, in that order of
priority, to purchase, in whole only, the Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties
then remaining in the Trust Fund. If any such party desires to exercise such
option, it will notify the Trustee who will notify any other such party with a
prior right to
-159-
exercise such option. If any such party that has been so provided notice by the
Trustee notifies the Trustee within ten Business Days after receiving notice of
the proposed purchase that it wishes to purchase the assets of the Trust, then
such party (or, in the event that more than one of such parties notifies the
Trustee that it wishes to purchase the assets of the Trust, the party with the
first right to purchase the assets of the Trust) may purchase the assets of the
Trust in accordance with this Agreement. The "Termination Price" shall equal (i)
the aggregate Purchase Price of all the remaining Mortgage Loans (other than REO
Mortgage Loans and Mortgage Loans as to which a Final Recovery Determination has
been made) held by the Trust, plus (ii) the appraised value of each remaining
REO Property, if any, held by the Trust (such appraisal to be conducted by an
Independent MAI-designated appraiser selected by the Master Servicer and
approved by the Trustee), minus (iii) solely in the case where the Master
Servicer is effecting such purchase, the aggregate amount of unreimbursed
Advances made by the Master Servicer, together with any Advance Interest accrued
and payable to the Master Servicer in respect of such Advances and any unpaid
Master Servicing Fees remaining outstanding (which items shall be deemed to have
been paid or reimbursed to the Master Servicer in connection with such
purchase).
In the event that the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer
or the Holders of Class R-I Certificates representing a majority Percentage
Interest in such Class purchase all of the remaining Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties held by the Trust in accordance with the preceding paragraph, the
party effecting such purchase (the "Final Purchaser") shall deposit in the
Collection Account not later than the Determination Date relating to the
Distribution Date on which the final distribution on the Certificates is to
occur, an amount in immediately available funds equal to the Termination Price.
Upon confirmation that such deposit has been made, the Trustee shall release or
cause to be released to the Final Purchaser or its designee the Mortgage Files
for the remaining Mortgage Loans and shall execute all assignments, endorsements
and other instruments furnished to it by the Final Purchaser as shall be
necessary to effectuate transfer of the remaining Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties held by the Trust, in each case without representation or warranty by
the Trustee. All Servicing Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties shall be delivered to the Final Purchaser or its designee.
(c) As a condition to the purchase of the assets of the Trust pursuant to
Section 10.1(b), the Final Purchaser must deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel, which shall be at the expense of the Final Purchaser, stating that such
termination will be a "qualified liquidation" under section 860F(a)(4) of the
Code. Such purchase shall be made in accordance with Section 10.3.
Section 10.2 Procedure Upon Termination of Trust.
(a) Notice of any termination pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.1,
specifying the Distribution Date upon which the final distribution shall be
made, shall be given promptly by the Trustee to each Rating Agency and each
Certificateholder by first class mail no later than ten days prior to the date
of such termination. Such notice shall specify (A) the Distribution Date upon
which final distribution on the Certificates will be made and (B) that the
Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable,
distribution being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates
at the office or agency of the Trustee therein specified. The Trustee shall give
such notice to the Depositor and the Certificate
-160-
Registrar at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders. Upon any such
termination, the Trustee shall terminate, or request the Master Servicer to
terminate, the Collection Account and the Distribution Account and any other
account or fund maintained with respect to the Certificates, subject to the
Trustee's obligation hereunder to hold all amounts payable to the nontendering
Certificateholders in trust without interest pending such payment.
(b) On the final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute to each
Certificateholder that presents and surrenders its Certificates all amounts
payable on such Certificates on such final Distribution Date in accordance with
Section 6.4.
(c) In the event that all of the Holders do not surrender their
Certificates for cancellation within three months after the time specified in
the above-mentioned written notice, the Trustee shall give a second written
notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for
cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within
one year after the second notice any Certificates shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take appropriate steps to contact
the nontendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates,
and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the amounts distributable to such
Holders. If within two years after the second notice any such Certificates shall
not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall, subject to
applicable state law relating to escheatment, hold all amounts distributable to
such Holders for the benefit of such Holders. No interest shall accrue on any
amount held by the Trustee and not distributed to a Certificateholder due to
such Certificateholder's failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for payment of
the final distribution thereon in accordance with this Section. Any money held
by the Trustee pending distribution under this Section 10.2 after 90 days after
the adoption of a plan of complete liquidation shall be deemed for tax purposes
to have been distributed from the REMICs and shall be beneficially owned by the
related Holder.
Section 10.3 Additional Trust Termination Requirements.
(a) In the event of a purchase of all the remaining Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties held by the Trust in accordance with Section 10.1, the Trust and each
REMIC Pool shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional
requirements, unless the Final Purchaser delivers to the Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel (at the expense of the Final Purchaser) addressed to the Depositor and
the Trustee to the effect that the failure of the Trust to comply with the
requirements of this Section 10.3 will not (i) result in the imposition of taxes
on "prohibited transactions" of any REMIC Pool under the REMIC Provisions or
(ii) cause any REMIC Pool to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any
Certificates are outstanding:
(i) the Trustee shall specify the first day in the 90-day liquidation
period in a statement attached to the final Tax Return for each REMIC Pool
pursuant to Treasury regulation 1.860F-1 and shall adopt a plan of complete
liquidation prepared by the Final Purchaser and meeting the requirements
for a qualified liquidation under Section 860F of the Code of any
regulations thereunder;
(ii) during such 90-day liquidation period and at or prior to the time
of making of the final payment on the Certificates, the Trustee shall sell
all of the remaining
-161-
Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties held by the Trust to the Final
Purchaser for cash in an amount equal to the Termination Price; and
(iii) immediately following the making of the final payment on the
Certificates, the Trustee shall distribute or credit, or cause to be
distributed or credited, to the Holders of the related Class of Residual
Certificates all cash on hand in each REMIC Pool (other than cash retained
to meet claims), and REMIC I, REMIC II and REMIC III shall terminate at
that time.
(b) By their acceptance of Certificates, the Holders thereof hereby agree
to authorize the Trustee to adopt a plan of complete liquidation of REMIC I,
REMIC II and REMIC III, which authorization shall be binding upon all successor
Certificateholders.
ARTICLE XI
RIGHTS OF CERTIFICATEHOLDERS
Section 11.1 Limitation on Rights of Holders.
(a) The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate to
terminate this Agreement or the Trust, nor entitle such Certificateholder's
legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or take any action or
proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the Trust, nor
otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto
or any of them.
(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no Certificateholder,
solely by virtue of its status as a Certificateholder, shall have any right to
vote or in any manner otherwise control the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer or the operation and management of the Trust, or the obligations of the
parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth, or contained in the terms
of the Certificates, be construed so as to constitute the Certificateholders
from time to time as partners or members of an association, nor shall any
Certificateholder be under any liability to any third person by reason of any
action taken by the parties to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof.
(c) No Certificateholder, solely by virtue of its status as
Certificateholder, shall have any right by virtue or by availing of any
provision of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in
equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement unless the
Holders of Certificates entitled to not less than 25% of the Voting Rights shall
have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or
proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the
Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the cost, expenses
and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for sixty
days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall
have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding and
no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given the Trustee
during such sixty-day period by such Certificateholders; it being understood and
intended, and being expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with
-162-
every other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of
Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue or by
availing of any provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the
rights of the Holders of any other of such Certificates, or to obtain or seek to
obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any
right under this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the
benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement of the
provisions of this Section, each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee
shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.
Section 11.2 Access to List of Holders.
(a) If the Trustee is not acting as Certificate Registrar, the Certificate
Registrar will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee, within fifteen
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 the Depositor, the Operating Adviser, the Special Servicer, the
Master Servicer or three or more Holders (hereinafter referred to as
"applicants," with a single Person which (together with its Affiliates) is the
Holder of more than one Class of Certificates being viewed as a single
"applicant" for these purposes) apply in writing to the Trustee, and such
application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other Holders
with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and
is accompanied by a copy of the communication which such applicants propose to
transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of
such application, send, at such Person's expense, the written communication
proffered by the applicants to all Certificateholders at their addresses as they
appear in the Certificate Register. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and the
Special Servicer may each obtain, upon request, from the Trustee and the
Certificate Registrar a copy of the Certificate Register.
(c) Every Holder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agrees with the
Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee that neither the Depositor,
the Certificate Registrar nor the Trustee shall be held accountable by reason of
the disclosure of any such information as to the names and addresses of the
Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from which such
information was derived.
Section 11.3 Acts of Holders of Certificates.
(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other action provided by this Agreement to be given or taken by Holders may
be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar
tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing;
and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become
effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and,
where it is hereby expressly required, to the Depositor. Such instrument or
instruments (as the action embodies therein and evidenced thereby) are herein
sometimes referred to as an "Act" of the Holders signing such instrument or
instruments. Proof of execution of any
-163-
such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agents shall be sufficient
for any purpose of this Agreement and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the
Depositor, if made in the manner provided in this Section. The Trustee agrees to
promptly notify the Depositor of any such instrument or instruments received by
it, and to promptly forward copies of the same.
(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument
or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by
the certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take
acknowledgments or deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument
or writing acknowledged to such notary public or other officer the execution
thereof. Whenever such execution is by an officer of a corporation or a member
of a partnership on behalf of such corporation or partnership, such certificate
or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of such officer's or
member's authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or
writing, or the authority of the individual executing the same, may also be
proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient.
(c) The ownership of Certificates (notwithstanding any notation of
ownership or other writing thereon made by anyone other than the Trustee) shall
be proved by the Certificate Register, and neither the Trustee nor the Depositor
shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other action by the Holder of any Certificate shall bind every future Holder
of the same Certificate and the Holder of every Certificate issued upon the
registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, in
respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the
Depositor in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made
upon such Certificate.
ARTICLE XII
REMIC ADMINISTRATION
The provisions of this Article XII shall apply to each REMIC Pool.
Section 12.1 REMIC Administration.
(a) An election will be made by the Trustee to treat the segregated pool of
assets consisting of the Mortgage Loans, such amounts as shall from time to time
be held in the Collection Account and the Distribution Account, the Insurance
Policies and any REO Properties as a REMIC under the Code. Such election will be
made on Form 1066 or other appropriate federal tax or information return or any
appropriate state return for the taxable year ending on the last day of the
calendar year in which the REMIC I Interests are issued. For purposes of such
election, the REMIC I Regular Interests shall each be designated as a separate
class of "regular interests" in REMIC I and the Class R-I Certificates shall be
designated as the sole class of "residual interests" in REMIC I.
An election will be made by the Trustee to treat the segregated pool of
assets
-164-
consisting of the REMIC I Regular Interests as a REMIC under the Code. Such
election will be made on Form 1066 or other appropriate federal tax or
information return or any appropriate state return for the taxable year ending
on the last day of the calendar year in which the REMIC II Interests are issued.
For the purposes of such election, the REMIC II Regular Interests shall be
designated as the "regular interests" in REMIC II and the Class R-II
Certificates shall be designated as the sole class of "residual interests" in
REMIC II.
An election will be made by the Trustee to treat the segregated pool of
assets consisting of the REMIC II Regular Interests as a REMIC under the Code.
Such election will be made on Form 1066 or other appropriate federal tax or
information return or any appropriate state return for the taxable year ending
on the last day of the calendar year in which the REMIC III Certificates are
issued. For purposes of such election, the Class A-1A, Class A-1B, Class A-1C,
Class A-2, Class IO-1, Class IO-2, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F,
Class G, Class H and Class J Certificates shall be designated as the "regular
interests" in REMIC III and the Class R-III Certificates shall be designated as
the sole class of "residual interests" in REMIC III.
The Trustee shall not permit the creation of any "interests" (within the
meaning of Section 860G of the Code) in any of the REMIC Pools other than the
REMIC I Regular Interests, the REMIC II Regular Interests and the interests
evidenced by the Certificates.
(b) The Closing Date is hereby designated as the "Startup Day" of each
REMIC Pool within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.
(c) The Trustee shall pay all routine tax related expenses (not including
any taxes, however denominated, including any additions to tax, penalties and
interest) of each REMIC Pool, excluding any professional fees or extraordinary
expenses related to audits or any administrative or judicial proceedings with
respect to each REMIC Pool that involve the Internal Revenue Service or state
tax authorities.
(d) The Trustee shall cause to be prepared, signed, and timely filed with
the Internal Revenue Service, on behalf of each REMIC Pool, an application for a
taxpayer identification number for such REMIC Pool on Internal Revenue Service
Form SS-4. The Trustee, upon receipt from the Internal Revenue Service of the
Notice of Taxpayer Identification Number Assigned, shall promptly forward a copy
of such notice to the Depositor and the Master Servicer. The Trustee shall
prepare and file Form 8811 on behalf of each REMIC Pool and shall designate an
appropriate Person to respond to inquiries by or on behalf of Certificateholders
for original issue discount and related information in accordance with
applicable provisions of the Code.
(e) The Trustee shall prepare, execute and file all of each REMIC Pool's
federal and state income or franchise tax and information returns as such REMIC
Pool's direct representative; the expenses of preparing and filing such returns
shall be borne by the Trustee. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and the
Special Servicer shall each provide on a timely basis to the Trustee or its
designee such information with respect to the Trust or any REMIC Pool as is in
the Depositor's, the Master Servicer's or the Special Servicer's, as the case
may be, possession, which the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Special
Servicer, as the case may be,
-165-
has received or prepared by virtue of its acting in such capacity hereunder and
which is reasonably requested by the Trustee to enable it to perform its
obligations under this subsection, and the Trustee shall be entitled to
conclusively rely on such information in the performance of its obligations
hereunder. The Depositor shall indemnify the Trust, the Trustee and the Fiscal
Agent for any liability or assessment against either of them or any cost or
expense (including attorneys' fees) incurred by either of them resulting from
any error resulting from bad faith, negligence, or willful malfeasance of the
Depositor in providing any information for which the Depositor is responsible
for preparing. The Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each indemnify
the Trust, the Trustee, the Fiscal Agent and the Depositor for any liability or
assessment against the Trust, the Trustee or the Depositor, as the case may be,
and any expenses incurred in connection with such liability or assessment
(including attorney's fees) resulting from any error in any of such tax or
information returns resulting from errors in the information provided by the
Master Servicer or the Special Servicer, as the case may be, caused by the
negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Master Servicer or the
Special Servicer, as the case may be. The Trustee shall be liable to the Trust,
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Depositor for any expense
incurred by the Trust, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the
Depositor resulting from any error in any of such tax or information returns
resulting from errors in the preparation of such returns caused by the
negligence, wilful misconduct or bad faith of the Trustee. Each indemnified
party shall immediately notify the indemnifying party or parties of the
existence of a claim for indemnification under this Section 12.1(e), and provide
the indemnifying party or parties, at the expense of such indemnifying party or
parties, an opportunity to contest the tax or assessment or expense giving rise
to such claim, provided that the failure to give such notification rights shall
not affect the indemnification rights in favor of the Trust under this Section
12.1(e). Any such indemnification shall survive the resignation or termination
of the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Fiscal Agent
or the termination of this Agreement.
(f) The Trustee shall perform on behalf of each REMIC Pool all reporting
and other tax compliance duties that are the responsibility of such REMIC Pool
under the Code, REMIC Provisions, or other compliance guidance issued by the
Internal Revenue Service or any state or local taxing authority. Among its other
duties, the Trustee shall provide (i) to the Internal Revenue Service or other
Persons (including, but not limited to, any Person that transferred a Residual
Certificate to a Disqualified Organization or to an agent that has acquired a
Residual Certificate on behalf of a Disqualified Organization) such information
as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the transfer of a
Residual Certificate to any Disqualified Organization and (ii) to the
Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code or
REMIC Provisions.
(g) The Trustee shall forward to the Depositor copies of quarterly and
annual REMIC tax returns and Form 1099 information returns and such other
information within the control of the Trustee as the Depositor may reasonably
request in writing. Moreover, the Trustee shall forward to Certificateholders
such forms and furnish such information within its control as are required by
the Code to be furnished to them, shall prepare and file with the appropriate
state authorities as may to the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee be required by applicable law and shall prepare and disseminate to
Certificateholders Forms 1099 (or otherwise furnish information within the
control of the Trustee) to the extent required by applicable law. The Trustee
will make available to any Certificateholder any tax related information
required to
-166-
be made available to such Certificateholder pursuant to the Code and any
Treasury Regulations thereunder.
(h) The Holder of Certificates representing the greatest Percentage
Interest in each Class of Residual Certificates shall be the Tax Matters Person
for the related REMIC Pool. The duties of the Tax Matters Person for each of the
REMIC Pools are hereby delegated to the Trustee, and each Residual
Certificateholder, by acceptance of its Residual Certificate, agrees, on behalf
of itself and all successor holders of such Residual Certificate, to such
delegation to the Trustee as their agent and attorney in fact. If the Code or
applicable Treasury regulations prohibits the Trustee from signing any
applicable Internal Revenue Service, court or other administrative documents or
from otherwise acting as Tax Matters Person (as an agent or otherwise), the
Trustee shall do or cause to be done whatever is necessary for the signing of
such documents and the taking of any other such act, and the Residual
Certificateholders shall reasonably cooperate with the Trustee in connection
therewith. The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur any other financial liability in the performance of its duties
hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers (except to the
extent of the ordinary expenses of performing its duties under, or as otherwise
expressly provided in, this Agreement), if it shall have reasonable grounds for
believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk
or liability is not reasonably assured to it.
(i) The Trustee, the Holders of the Residual Certificates, the Master
Servicer and the Special Servicer shall each exercise reasonable care, to the
extent within its control, and with respect to each of the Trustee, the Master
Servicer and the Special Servicer, within the scope of its express duties, and
shall each act in accordance with this Agreement and the REMIC Provisions in
order to create and maintain the status of each REMIC Pool as a REMIC or, as
appropriate, adopt a plan of complete liquidation.
(j) The Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Fiscal
Agent and the Holders of Residual Certificates shall not take any action or fail
to take any action or cause any REMIC Pool to take any action or fail to take
any action if any of such Persons knows or could, upon the exercise of
reasonable diligence, know, that, under the REMIC Provisions, such action or
failure to act, as the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of any REMIC
Pool as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon any REMIC Pool
(including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in
Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code), unless the Trustee has received an Opinion of
Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action) to the effect
that the contemplated action will not endanger such status or result in the
imposition of such a tax. Any action required under this section which would
result in an unusual or unexpected expense shall be undertaken at the expense of
the party seeking the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the
Fiscal Agent or the Holders of the Residual Certificates to undertake such
action.
(k) In the event that any tax is imposed on REMIC I, REMIC II or REMIC III,
including, without limitation, "prohibited transactions" taxes as defined in
Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, any tax on "net income from foreclosure
property" as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, any taxes on contributions
to REMIC I, REMIC II or REMIC III after the Startup Day pursuant to Section
860G(d) of the Code, and any other tax imposed by the Code or any
-167-
applicable provisions of state or local tax laws (other than any tax permitted
to be incurred by the Special Servicer pursuant to Section 8.20(a)), such tax,
together with all incidental costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
penalties and reasonable attorneys' fees), shall be charged to and paid by: (i)
the Trustee, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach of any of its
obligations under this Article XII; (ii) the Special Servicer, if such tax
arises out of or results from a breach by the Special Servicer of any of its
obligations under Article VIII or this Article XII; (iii) the Master Servicer,
if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Master Servicer of any
of its obligations under Article VIII or this Article XII; or (iv) the Trust in
all other instances. Any tax permitted to be incurred by the Special Servicer
pursuant to Section 8.20(a) shall be charged to and paid by the Master Servicer
(at the direction of the Trust) from the net income generated on the related REO
Property. Any such amounts payable by the Trust in respect of taxes shall be
paid by the Master Servicer (at the direction of the Trustee) out of amounts on
deposit in the Collection Account.
(l) The Trustee shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and
records with respect to each REMIC Pool on a calendar year and on an accrual
basis. The books and records must be sufficient concerning the nature and amount
of each REMIC Pool's investments to show that such REMIC Pool has complied with
the REMIC Provisions.
(m) None of the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall
enter into any arrangement by which any REMIC Pool will receive a fee or other
compensation for services (other than under the circumstances described in, and
subject to the conditions of, Section 8.20(a)).
(n) In order to enable the Trustee to perform its duties as set forth
herein, the Depositor shall provide, or cause to be provided, to the Trustee
within ten (10) days after the Closing Date all information or data that the
Trustee reasonably determines to be relevant for tax purposes on the valuations
and offering prices of the Certificates, including, without limitation, the
yield, prepayment assumption, issue prices and projected cash flows of the
Senior Certificates, Subordinate Certificates and Residual Certificates, as
applicable, and the projected cash flows of the Mortgage Loans. Thereafter, the
Depositor shall provide to the Trustee or its designee, promptly upon request
therefor, any such additional information or data within the Depositor's
possession or knowledge that the Trustee may, from time to time, reasonably
request in order to enable the Trustee to perform its duties as set forth
herein. The Trustee is hereby directed to use any and all such information or
data provided by the Depositor in the preparation of all federal and state
income or franchise tax and information returns and reports for each REMIC Pool
to Certificateholders as required herein. The Depositor hereby indemnifies the
Trustee, the Fiscal Agent and each REMIC Pool for any losses, liabilities,
damages, claims, expenses (including attorneys' fees) or assessments against the
Trustee, the Fiscal Agent and each REMIC Pool arising from any errors or
miscalculations of the Trustee pursuant to this Section that result from any
failure of the Depositor to provide, or to cause to be provided, accurate
information or data to the Trustee (but not resulting from the methodology
employed by the Trustee) on a timely basis and such indemnification shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the termination or resignation of
the Trustee or Fiscal Agent; provided, however, that to the extent that any
Certificates have been transferred to a Seller under circumstances in which the
fair market value of such Certificates is their issue price, the Depositor may
exclusively rely on the accuracy of a
-168-
determination of such fair market value by such Seller in supplying information
to the Trustee pursuant to this Section 12.1(n).
The Trustee agrees that all such information or data so obtained by it is
to be regarded as confidential information and agrees that it shall use its best
reasonable efforts to retain in confidence, and shall ensure that its officers,
employees and representatives retain in confidence, and shall not disclose,
without the prior written consent of the Depositor, any or all of such
information or data, or make any use whatsoever (other than for the purposes
contemplated by this Agreement) of any such information or data without the
prior written consent of the Depositor, unless such information is generally
available to the public (other than as a result of a breach of this Section
12.1(n)) or is required by law or applicable regulations to be disclosed or is
disclosed (i) to independent auditors and accountants, counsel and other
professional advisers of the Trustee and its parent, or (ii) in connection with
enforcing its rights and obligations under this Agreement.
(o) At all times as may be required by the Code, the Trustee, the Master
Servicer and the Special Servicer each shall, to the extent within its control
and the scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein, maintain
substantially all of the assets of each REMIC Pool as "qualified mortgages" as
defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and "permitted investments" as defined
in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.
Section 12.2 Prohibited Transactions and Activities. None of the Trustee,
the Master Servicer or the Special Servicer shall, to the extent within its
control, permit the sale, disposition or substitution of any of the Mortgage
Loans (except in a disposition pursuant to (i) the foreclosure, default or
imminent default of a Mortgage Loan, (ii) the bankruptcy or insolvency of any
REMIC Pool, (iii) the termination of any REMIC Pool in a "qualified liquidation"
as defined in Section 860F(a)(4) of the Code, or (iv) a repurchase or
substitution by any Seller, any Additional Warranting Party or the Xxxxx
Guarantor as contemplated by Article II hereof), nor acquire any assets for the
Trust, except as provided in Article II hereof, nor sell or dispose of any
investments in the Collection Account or Distribution Account for gain, nor
accept any contributions to any REMIC Pool (other than a cash contribution
during the 3-month period beginning on the Startup Day), unless it has received
an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the Person requesting such action) to
the effect that such sale, disposition, acquisition, substitution, or acceptance
will not (a) affect adversely the status of any REMIC Pool as a REMIC or of the
REMIC I Regular Interests, the REMIC II Regular Interests or the REMIC III
Regular Certificates, as the case may be, as the regular interests therein, (b)
affect the distribution of interest or principal on the Certificates, (c) result
in the encumbrance of the assets transferred or assigned to any REMIC Pool
(except pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement) or (d) cause any REMIC
Pool to be subject to a tax on "prohibited transactions" or "prohibited
contributions" or other tax pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.
Section 12.3 Liability with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of REMIC
Status. In the event that any REMIC Pool fails to qualify as a REMIC, loses its
status as a REMIC, or incurs state or local taxes, or tax as a result of a
prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution subject to taxation under the
REMIC Provisions due to the negligent performance by the Trustee of its duties
and obligations set forth herein, the Trustee shall be liable to the REMIC
-169-
Pools and the Holders of the Residual Certificates for any and all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses ("Losses") resulting from such
negligence and relating to the Residual Certificates; provided, however, that
the Trustee shall not be liable pursuant to this Section 12.3 to the extent that
any such Losses are attributable to the action or inaction of the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Depositor or the Holders of such Residual
Certificates or to the extent that any such Losses result from any actions or
failure to act based upon reliance on an Opinion of Counsel or from
misinformation provided by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the
Depositor or such Holders of the Residual Certificates on which the Trustee has
relied. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights and
remedies of the Trust or the Certificateholders under any other provision of
this Agreement or now or hereafter otherwise existing at law or in equity. The
Trustee shall be entitled to intervene in any litigation in connection with the
foregoing and to maintain control over its defense.

Section 13.12 Intention of Parties.
(a) It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of
the Mortgage Loans and related property to the Trustee, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, by the Depositor as provided in Section 2.1 be, and be
construed as, an absolute sale of the Mortgage Loans and related property. It
is, further, not the intention of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a
pledge of the Mortgage Loans and related property by the Depositor to the
Trustee to secure a debt or other obligation of the Depositor. However, in the
event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, such conveyance is held
not to be an absolute sale of the Mortgage Loans or any related property, or the
Mortgage Loans or any related property is for any other reason held to be the
property of the Depositor, then:
(i) This Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement.
(ii) The conveyance provided for in Section 2.1 shall be deemed to be
a grant by the Depositor to the Trustee, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, of a security interest in all of the Depositor's right,
title, and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to:
(A) All accounts, contract rights, general intangibles, chattel
paper, instruments, documents, money, deposit accounts, certificates
of deposit, goods, letters of credit, advices of credit and
uncertificated securities consisting of, arising from or relating to
any of the property described in clauses (1)-(4) below: (1) the
Mortgage Loans (including, without limitation, the Mortgage Notes, the
related Mortgages, the related security agreements, and the related
title, hazard and other insurance policies) identified on the Mortgage
Loan Schedule, including all
-174-
Replacement Mortgage Loans, together with all payments and other
collections with respect thereto after the Cut-off Date (other than
Monthly Payments of principal and interest due on or before the
Cut-off Date) the related Mortgage Files; (2) the Distribution Account
and the Collection Account, including, without limitation, all funds
and investments therein and all income from the investment of funds
therein (including any accrued discount realized on liquidation of any
investment purchased at a discount); (3) the REMIC I Regular Interests
and the REMIC II Regular Interests; and (4) the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreements;
(B) All accounts, contract rights, general intangibles, chattel
paper, instruments, documents, money, deposit accounts, certificates
of deposit, goods, letters of credit, advices of credit,
uncertificated securities, and other rights arising from or by virtue
of the disposition of, or collections with respect to, or insurance
proceeds payable with respect to, or claims against other Persons with
respect to, all or any part of the collateral described in clause (A)
above (including any accrued discount realized on liquidation of any
investment purchased at a discount); and
(C) All cash and non-cash proceeds of the collateral described in
clauses (A) and (B) above.
(iii) The possession by the Trustee of the Mortgage Notes, the
Mortgages and such other goods, letters of credit, advices of credit,
instruments, money, documents, chattel paper or certificated securities
shall be deemed to be "possession by the secured party," or possession by a
purchaser or a person designated by him or her, for purposes of perfecting
the security interest pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code (including,
without limitation, Sections 9-305, 8-313 or 8-321 thereof) as in force in
each relevant jurisdiction.
(iv) Notifications to Persons holding such property, and
acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from Persons holding such
property, shall be deemed to be notifications to, or acknowledgments,
receipts or confirmations from, financial intermediaries, bailees or agents
(as applicable) of the Trustee for the purpose of perfecting such security
interest under applicable law.
(b) The Depositor and, at the Depositor's direction, the Master Servicer
and the Trustee, shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such
reasonable actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were
deemed to create a security interest in the property described above, such
security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first
priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term
of the Agreement. The Master Servicer shall file, at the direction of the
Depositor, all filings necessary to maintain the effectiveness of any original
filings necessary under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any relevant
jurisdiction to perfect the Trustee's security interest in such property,
including, without limitation, continuation statements. In connection herewith,
the Trustee shall have all of the rights and remedies of a secured party and
creditor under the
-175-
Uniform Commercial Code as in force in the relevant jurisdiction.
(c) The Depositor shall not take any action inconsistent with the Trust's
ownership of the Mortgage Loans.
Section 13.13 Recordation of Agreement. This Agreement is subject to
recordation in all appropriate public offices for real property records in all
the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or all of the
properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and in any other appropriate
public recording office or elsewhere. Such recordation, if any, shall be
effected by the Master Servicer at the expense of the Trust payable out of the
Collection Account, but only upon direction of the Trustee accompanied by an
Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall be payable out of the Collection
Account) to the effect that such recordation materially and beneficially affects
the interests of the Certificateholders of the Trust.

Certificate Principal Balance hereof is binding on such Holder and all future
Holders of this Certificate and any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof

specified on the face hereof. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the

Agent thereunder and the rights of the Certificateholders thereunder, at any
time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee
and the Fiscal Agent with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to
at least 51% of the Voting Rights allocated to the affected Classes. 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 herefor or in lieu
hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.
A-1-4
The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain circumstances,
including any amendment necessary to maintain the status of REMIC I, REMIC II or
REMIC III as a REMIC, without the consent of the Holders of any of the
Certificates.

Certificate Registrar, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be

The registered Holder hereof, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that it will
look solely to the Trust Fund (to the extent of its rights therein) for
distributions hereunder.
This Certificate shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of
the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed in said
State, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the Holder hereof shall be

surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the Certificate Registrar
appointed as provided in the Agreement or such other location as may be

Any distribution to the Holder of this Certificate in reduction of the
Certificate Principal Balance hereof is binding on such Holder and all future
Holders of this Certificate and any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof
or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such

to the designated transferee or transferees.
No service charge will be imposed for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Class A-1C Certificates, but the Trustee or the Certificate
Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or
exchange of Class A-1C Certificates.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as this Certificate is
registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name as is requested by an

the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the

the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for
all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Trustee, the Fiscal Agent, the Certificate Registrar or any such
agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
The Trust Fund and the obligations created by the Agreement shall terminate
upon distribution (or provision for distribution) to the Certificateholders of

Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Holders of Class R-I
Certificates representing a majority Percentage Interest in such Class, at a
price determined as provided in the Agreement, of all Mortgage Loans and any REO
Properties remaining in the Trust Fund. The Agreement permits, but does not
require, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, or such Holders to purchase from
the Trust Fund all Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties remaining therein at
such time as the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool is less
than 3% of the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool
specified on the face hereof. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof, and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Fiscal
Agent thereunder and the rights of the Certificateholders thereunder, at any
time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee
and the Fiscal Agent with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to
at least 51% of the Voting Rights allocated to the affected Classes. 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 herefor or in lieu
hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.
A-3-4
The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain circumstances,
including any amendment necessary to maintain the status of REMIC I, REMIC II or
REMIC III as a REMIC, without the consent of the Holders of any of the
Certificates.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Certificate Registrar, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be
entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.
The registered Holder hereof, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that it will
look solely to the Trust Fund (to the extent of its rights therein) for
distributions hereunder.
This Certificate shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of
the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed in said
State, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the Holder hereof shall be
determined in accordance with such laws.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trustee has caused this Certificate to be duly

(unless it shall have acquired such Certificate or interest therein from the
Depositor or an Affiliate thereof or unless it shall have delivered to the
Certificate Registrar the certification of facts and Opinion of Counsel referred
to in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence) shall be required to deliver to the
Certificate Registrar (or, in the case of an interest in a Book-Entry
Certificate, to the Certificate Owner that is transferring such interest) a

Agent thereunder and the rights of the Certificateholders thereunder, at any
time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee

Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu
hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.

The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain circumstances,
including any amendment necessary to maintain the status of REMIC I, REMIC II or
REMIC III as a REMIC, without the consent of the Holders of any of the
Certificates.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Certificate Registrar, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be

distributions hereunder.
This Certificate shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of

Agent thereunder and the rights of the Certificateholders thereunder, at any

including any amendment necessary to maintain the status of REMIC I, REMIC II or
REMIC III as a REMIC, without the consent of the Holders of any of the

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Certificate Registrar, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be
entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.
The registered Holder hereof, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that it will
look solely to the Trust Fund (to the extent of its rights therein) for

made without registration under the Securities Act (other than in connection
with the initial issuance of the Certificates or a transfer of such Class F
Certificate by the Depositor or any of its Affiliates), then the Certificate
Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless it receives (and upon
receipt, may conclusively rely upon) either: (i) a certificate from the
Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer substantially in the form
attached to the Agreement as Exhibit D-1 and a certificate from such
Certificateholder's prospective transferee substantially in the form attached to
the Agreement either as Exhibit D-2A or as Exhibit D-2B; or (ii) an Opinion of

the facts surrounding such transfer on which such Opinion of Counsel is based.

its Affiliates), then the Certificate Owner desiring to effect such transfer
shall be required to obtain either (i) a certificate from such Certificate
Owner's prospective Transferee substantially in the form attached to the
Agreement as Exhibit D-3A or as Exhibit D-3B, or (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the

is obligated to register or qualify any Class F Certificates under the
Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise

or interest therein without registration or qualification. Any Certificateholder
or Certificate Owner desiring to effect a transfer of Class F Certificates or
interests therein shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify, the Depositor, the
Underwriter, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the
Certificate Registrar against any liability that may result if the transfer is

Certificate or interest therein is exempt from the prohibited transaction
provisions of Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code under Section I

Transferee provides the Certificate Registrar with a certification of facts and
an Opinion of Counsel which establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee that
such transfer will not result in a violation of Section 406 of ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code or result in the imposition of an excise tax under Section 4975
of the Code or subject the Depositor, the Trustee, the Fiscal Agent, the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer to any obligation in addition to those
undertaken in the Agreement. Each Person who acquires any Class F Certificate or
interest therein (unless it shall have acquired such Certificate or interest
therein from the Depositor or an Affiliate thereof or unless it shall have
delivered to the Certificate Registrar the certification of facts and Opinion of
Counsel referred to in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence) shall be required
to deliver to the Certificate Registrar (or, in the case of an interest in a
Book-Entry Certificate, to the Certificate Owner that is transferring such

the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for
all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special

agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
The Trust Fund and the obligations created by the Agreement shall terminate
upon distribution (or provision for distribution) to the Certificateholders of
all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and required to be distributed
to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment
or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage

all Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties remaining therein at such time as the
aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool is less than 3% of the
aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool specified on the

disposition is exempt from the registration and/or qualification requirements of
the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or is otherwise
made in accordance with the Securities Act and such state securities laws. If a
transfer of any Class H Certificate held as a Definitive Certificate is to be
made without registration under the Securities Act (other than in connection
with the initial issuance of the Certificates or a transfer of such Class H
Certificate by the Depositor or any of its Affiliates), then the Certificate
Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless it receives (and upon

the facts surrounding such transfer on which such Opinion of Counsel is based.

Book-Entry Certificate is to be made without registration under the Securities

its Affiliates), then the Certificate Owner desiring to effect such transfer
shall be required to obtain either (i) a certificate from such Certificate
Owner's prospective Transferee substantially in the form attached to the
Agreement as Exhibit D-3A or as Exhibit D-3B, or (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the
Securities Act. None of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar

or Certificate Owner desiring to effect a transfer of Class H Certificates or
interests therein shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify, the Depositor, the
Underwriter, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the
Certificate Registrar against any liability that may result if the transfer is
not exempt from such registration or qualification or is not made in accordance
with such federal and state laws.

general accounts, that is subject to ERISA or the Code (each, a "Plan"), or (B)

interest therein on behalf of, as named fiduciary of, as trustee of, or with
assets of a Plan, unless: (i) in the case of a Certificate that
A-11-5
constitutes a Book-Entry Certificate, the purchase and holding of such
Certificate or interest therein is exempt from the prohibited transaction
provisions of Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code under Section I
and III of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60; or (ii) in the case of
a Class H Certificate that is held as a Definitive Certificate, the prospective
Transferee provides the Certificate Registrar with a certification of facts and
an Opinion of Counsel which establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee that
such transfer will not result in a violation of Section 406 of ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code or result in the imposition of an excise tax under Section 4975
of the Code or subject the Depositor, the Trustee, the Fiscal Agent, the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer to any obligation in addition to those
undertaken in the Agreement. Each Person who acquires any Class H Certificate or
interest therein (unless it shall have acquired such Certificate or interest
therein from the Depositor or an Affiliate thereof or unless it shall have
delivered to the Certificate Registrar the certification of facts and Opinion of
Counsel referred to in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence) shall be required
to deliver to the Certificate Registrar (or, in the case of an interest in a
Book-Entry Certificate, to the Certificate Owner that is transferring such
interest) a certification to the effect that: (i) it is neither a Plan nor any
Person who is directly or indirectly purchasing such Class H Certificate or
interest therein on behalf of, as named fiduciary of, as trustee of, or with
assets of a Plan; or (ii) the purchase and holding of such Certificate or
interest therein by such person is exempt from the prohibited transaction
provisions of Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code under Section I
and II of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60.
No service charge will be imposed for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Class H Certificates, but the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar
may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Class
H Certificates.

the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the
Fiscal Agent, the Certificate Registrar and any agents of any of them may treat
the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for
all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Fiscal Agent,
the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any such agent
shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
The Trust Fund and the obligations created by the Agreement shall terminate
upon distribution (or provision for distribution) to the Certificateholders of
all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and required to be distributed
to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment
or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage
Loan or REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and (ii) the purchase by the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Holders of Class R-I
Certificates
A-11-6

remaining in the Trust Fund. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, or such Holders to purchase from the Trust Fund
all Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties remaining therein at such time as the
aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool is less than 3% of the
aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool specified on the
face hereof. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof, and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Fiscal
Agent thereunder and the rights of the Certificateholders thereunder, at any
time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee
and the Fiscal Agent with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to
at least 51% of the Voting Rights allocated to the affected Classes. 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 herefor or in lieu
hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.
The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain circumstances,
including any amendment necessary to maintain the status of REMIC I, REMIC II or
REMIC III as a REMIC, without the consent of the Holders of any of the
Certificates.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Certificate Registrar, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be
entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.
The registered Holder hereof, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that it will

Date for such distribution (which wiring instructions may be in the form of a
standing order applicable to all subsequent distributions as well) or otherwise
by check mailed to the address of such Certificateholder appearing in the
Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this
Certificate (determined without regard to any possible future reimbursement of
any Realized Loss or Expense Loss previously allocated to this Certificate) will
be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and
only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the offices of the
Certificate Registrar appointed as provided in the Agreement or such other
location as may be specified in such notice. Also notwithstanding the foregoing,
any distribution that may be made with respect to this Certificate in
reimbursement of any Realized Loss or Expense Loss previously allocated to this

Certificate is surrendered as contemplated by the preceding sentence, will be
made by check mailed to the address of the Holder that surrenders this
Certificate as such address last appeared in the Certificate Register or to any
such other address of which the Trustee is subsequently notified in writing.
Any distribution to the Holder of this Certificate in reduction of the
Certificate Principal Balance hereof is binding on such Holder and all future
Holders of this Certificate and any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof
or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such
distribution is made upon this Certificate.

recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth
herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the
Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time
for purposes other than, and, in certain cases, prior to, distributions to
Certificateholders, such purposes including the reimbursement of advances made,
or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the payment
of interest on such advances and expenses.
The Class J Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only,

thereupon one or more new Class J Certificates in authorized denominations
evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.
No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Class J Certificate
or interest therein shall be made unless that transfer, sale, pledge or other
disposition is exempt from the registration and/or qualification requirements of
the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or is otherwise
made in accordance with the Securities Act and such state securities laws. If a
transfer of any Class J Certificate held as a Definitive Certificate is to be
made without registration under the Securities Act (other than in connection
with the initial issuance of the Certificates or a transfer of such Class J
Certificate by the Depositor or any of its Affiliates), then the Certificate
Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless it receives (and upon
receipt, may conclusively rely upon) either: (i) a certificate from the
Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer substantially in the form
attached to the Agreement as Exhibit D-1 and a certificate from such
Certificateholder's prospective transferee substantially in the form attached to
the Agreement either as Exhibit D-2A or as Exhibit D-2B; or (ii) an Opinion of
Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee to the effect that such transfer may be made
without registration under the Securities Act (which Opinion of Counsel shall
not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar in their
respective capacities as such), together with the written certification(s) as to
the facts surrounding such transfer on which such Opinion of Counsel is based.
If a transfer of any interest in a Class J Certificate that constitutes a
Book-Entry Certificate is to be made without registration under the Securities
Act (other than in connection with the initial issuance of the Certificates or a
transfer of any interest in such Class J Certificate by the Depositor or any of
its Affiliates), then the Certificate Owner desiring to effect such transfer
shall be required to obtain either (i) a certificate from such Certificate
Owner's prospective Transferee substantially in the form attached to the
Agreement as Exhibit D-3A or as Exhibit D-3B, or (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the
Securities Act. None of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar
is obligated to register or qualify any Class J Certificates under the
Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise
required under this Agreement to permit the transfer of any Class J Certificate
or interest therein without registration or qualification. Any Certificateholder
or Certificate Owner desiring to effect a transfer of Class J Certificates or
interests therein shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify, the Depositor, the
Underwriter, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the
Certificate Registrar against any liability that may result if the transfer is
not exempt from such registration or qualification or is not made in accordance
with such federal and state laws.
No transfer of a Class J Certificate or any interest therein shall be made
(A) to any employee benefit plan or other retirement arrangement, including
individual retirement accounts and annuities, Xxxxx plans and collective

general accounts, that is subject to ERISA or the Code (each, a "Plan"), or (B)
to any Person who is directly or indirectly purchasing such Certificate or
interest therein on behalf of, as named fiduciary of, as trustee of, or with
assets of a Plan, unless: (i) in the case of a Certificate that
A-12-5
constitutes a Book-Entry Certificate, the purchase and holding of such
Certificate or interest therein is exempt from the prohibited transaction
provisions of Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code under Section I
and III of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60; or (ii) in the case of
a Class J Certificate that is held as a Definitive Certificate, the prospective
Transferee provides the Certificate Registrar with a certification of facts and
an Opinion of Counsel which establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee that
such transfer will not result in a violation of Section 406 of ERISA or Section
4975 of the Code or result in the imposition of an excise tax under Section 4975
of the Code or subject the Depositor, the Trustee, the Fiscal Agent, the Master
Servicer or the Special Servicer to any obligation in addition to those
undertaken in the Agreement. Each Person who acquires any Class J Certificate or
interest therein (unless it shall have acquired such Certificate or interest
therein from the Depositor or an Affiliate thereof or unless it shall have
delivered to the Certificate Registrar the certification of facts and Opinion of
Counsel referred to in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence) shall be required
to deliver to the Certificate Registrar (or, in the case of an interest in a
Book-Entry Certificate, to the Certificate Owner that is transferring such
interest) a certification to the effect that: (i) it is neither a Plan nor any
Person who is directly or indirectly purchasing such Class J Certificate or
interest therein on behalf of, as named fiduciary of, as trustee of, or with
assets of a Plan; or (ii) the purchase and holding of such Certificate or
interest therein by such person is exempt from the prohibited transaction
provisions of Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code under Section I
and II of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60.
No service charge will be imposed for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Class J Certificates, but the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar
may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Class
J Certificates.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as this Certificate is
registered in the name of Cede & Co. or in such other name as is requested by an
authorized representative of DTC, transfers of interests in this Certificate
shall be made through the book-entry facilities of DTC.
Prior to due presentment of this Certificate for registration of transfer,
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the
Fiscal Agent, the Certificate Registrar and any agents of any of them may treat
the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for
all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Trustee, the Fiscal Agent, the Certificate Registrar or any such
agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
The Trust Fund and the obligations created by the Agreement shall terminate
upon distribution (or provision for distribution) to the Certificateholders of
all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and required to be distributed
to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment
or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage
Loan or REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund, and (ii) the purchase by the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Holders of Class R-I
Certificates
A-12-6
representing a majority Percentage Interest in such Class, at a price determined
as provided in the Agreement, of all Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties
remaining in the Trust Fund. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, or such Holders to purchase from the Trust Fund
all Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties remaining therein at such time as the
aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool is less than 3% of the
aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool specified on the
face hereof. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates.
The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof, and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the Fiscal
Agent thereunder and the rights of the Certificateholders thereunder, at any
time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee
and the Fiscal Agent with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to
at least 51% of the Voting Rights allocated to the affected Classes. 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 herefor or in lieu
hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.
The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain circumstances,
including any amendment necessary to maintain the status of REMIC I, REMIC II or
REMIC III as a REMIC, without the consent of the Holders of any of the
Certificates.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Certificate Registrar, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be
entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.
The registered Holder hereof, by its acceptance hereof, agrees that it will
look solely to the Trust Fund (to the extent of its rights therein) for
distributions hereunder.
This Certificate shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of
the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed in said
State, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the Holder hereof shall be
determined in accordance with such laws.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trustee has caused this Certificate to be duly

registration or qualification. Any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner
desiring to effect a transfer of Class R-I Certificates or interests therein
shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify, the Depositor, the Underwriter, the
Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar

Counsel which establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee that such transfer
will not result in a violation of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the
Code or result in the imposition of an excise tax under Section 4975 of the Code
or subject the Depositor, the Trustee, the Fiscal Agent, the Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in the
Agreement. Each Person who acquires any Class R-I Certificate or interest
therein (unless it shall have acquired such Certificate or interest therein from
the Depositor or an Affiliate thereof or unless it shall have delivered to the
Certificate Registrar the certification of facts and Opinion of Counsel referred
to in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence) shall be required to deliver to the
Certificate Registrar a certification to the effect that: (i) it is neither a
Plan nor any Person who is directly or indirectly purchasing such Class R-I
Certificate or interest therein on behalf of, as named fiduciary of, as trustee
of, or with assets of a Plan; or (ii) the purchase and holding of such

A-13-4
Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in this
Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership
Interest to have agreed to be bound by the provisions of Section 3.3(e) of the
Agreement and, if any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of this
Certificate in violation of the provisions of such Section 3.3(e), to have
irrevocably authorized the Trustee under clause (ii)(A) of such Section 3.3(e)
to deliver payments to a Person other than such Person and to have irrevocably
authorized the Trustee under clause (ii)(B) of such Section 3.3(e) to negotiate
the terms of any mandatory sale and to execute all instruments of Transfer and
to do all other things necessary in connection with any such sale. Each Person
holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in this Certificate must be a
Permitted Transferee and a United States Person and shall promptly notify the
Trustee of any change or impending change in its status as a Permitted
Transferee or United States Person. In connection with any proposed Transfer of
any Ownership Interest in this Certificate, the Trustee shall require delivery
to it, and shall not register the Transfer of this Certificate until its receipt
of, an affidavit and agreement substantially in the form attached as Exhibit
E-1A to the Agreement (a "Transfer Affidavit and Agreement") from the proposed
Transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, representing and
warranting, among other things, that such Transferee is a Permitted Transferee
and a United States Person, that it is not acquiring its Ownership Interest in
this Certificate as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person that is not a
Permitted Transferee or is not a United States Person, that for so long as it
retains its Ownership Interest in this Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a
Permitted Transferee and a United States Person, and that it has reviewed the
provisions of Section 3.3(e) of the Agreement and agrees to be bound by them.
Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement by a proposed
Transferee, if the Trustee has actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is
not a Permitted Transferee or is not a United States Person, the Trustee shall
not register the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in this Certificate to such
proposed Transferee.
Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in this Certificate
shall agree (x) to require a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement from any
prospective Transferee to whom such Person attempts to transfer its Ownership
Interest herein and (y) not to transfer its Ownership Interest unless it
provides to the Trustee a certificate substantially in the form attached as
Exhibit E-1B to the Agreement stating that, among other things, it has no actual
knowledge that such prospective Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee or is
not a United States Person. Each Person holding or acquiring an Ownership
Interest in this Certificate, by purchasing such Ownership Interest herein,
agrees to give the Trustee written notice that it is a "pass-through interest
holder" within the meaning of temporary Treasury regulation Section
1.67-3T(a)(2)(i)(A) immediately upon acquiring such Ownership Interest, if it
is, or is holding such Ownership Interest on behalf of, a "pass-through interest
holder".
The provisions of Section 3.3(e) of the Agreement may be modified, added to
or eliminated, provided that there shall have been delivered to the Trustee the
following: (a) written notification from each Rating Agency to the effect that
the modification of, addition to or elimination of such provisions will not
cause such Rating Agency to withdraw, qualify or downgrade its then-current
rating of any Class of Certificates; and (b) an Opinion of Counsel, in form and
substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Depositor, to the effect that such
A-13-5
modification of, addition to or elimination of such provisions will not cause
any of REMIC I, REMIC II or REMIC III to (x) cease to qualify as a REMIC or (y)
be subject to an entity-level tax caused by the Transfer of any Class R-I
Certificate to a Person which is not a Permitted Transferee, or cause a Person
other than the prospective Transferee to be subject to a REMIC-related tax
caused by the Transfer of a Class R-I Certificate to a Person which is not a
Permitted Transferee.
A "Permitted Transferee" is any Transferee other than (i) the United
States, any State or political subdivision thereof, any possession of the United
States, or any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other than an
instrumentality which is a corporation if all of its activities are subject to
tax and, except for FHLMC, a majority of its board of directors is not selected
by such governmental unit), (ii) a foreign government, any international
organization, or any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing, (iii)
any organization (other than certain farmers' cooperatives described in Section
521 of the Code) which is exempt from the tax imposed by Chapter 1 of the Code
(including the tax imposed by Section 511 of the Code on unrelated business
taxable income), (iv) rural electric and telephone cooperatives described in
Section 1381(a)(2)(C) of the Code and (v) any other Person so designated by the
Trustee based upon an Opinion of Counsel that the holding of an Ownership
Interest in a Class R-I Certificate by such Person may cause the Trust Fund or
any Person having an Ownership Interest in any Class of Certificates (other than
such Person) to incur a liability for any federal tax imposed under the Code
that would not otherwise be imposed but for the Transfer of an Ownership
Interest in a Class R-I Certificate to such Person. The terms "United States",
"State" and "international organization" shall have the meanings set forth in
Section 7701 of the Code or successor provisions.
A "United States Person" is a citizen or resident of the United States, a
corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized in, or under the
laws of, the United States or any political subdivision thereof, or an estate or
trust whose income from sources without the United States is includable in gross
income for United States federal income tax purposes regardless of its
connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States.
No service charge will be imposed for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Class R-I Certificates, but the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar
may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Class
R-I Certificates.
Prior to due presentment of this Certificate for registration of transfer,
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee, the
Certificate Registrar and any agents of any of them may treat the Person in
whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes,
and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the
Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any such agent shall be affected by notice
to the contrary.
The Trust Fund and the obligations created by the Agreement shall terminate
upon distribution (or provision for distribution) to the Certificateholders of
all amounts held by or on
A-13-6
behalf of the Trustee and required to be distributed to them pursuant to the
Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation
(or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan or REO Property
remaining in the Trust Fund, and (ii) the purchase by the Depositor, the Master
Servicer, the Special Servicer or the Holders of Class R-I Certificates
representing a majority Percentage Interest in such Class at a price determined
as provided in the Agreement of all Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties
remaining in the Trust Fund. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, or such Holders to purchase from the Trust Fund
all Mortgage Loans and any REO Properties remaining therein at such time as the
aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool is less than 3% of the
aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Pool specified on the
face hereof. The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates.

conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate
by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the

recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth
herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the

The Class R-II Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only
without coupons in minimum denominations representing Percentage Interests

Class R-II Certificates in authorized denominations evidencing the same
aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
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
offices of the Certificate Registrar, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in the form satisfactory to the Certificate

No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Class R-II
Certificate or interest therein shall be made unless that transfer, sale, pledge
or other disposition is exempt from the registration and/or qualification
requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or
is otherwise made in accordance with the Securities Act and such state
securities laws. If a transfer of any Class R-II Certificate held as a
Definitive Certificate is to be made without registration under the Securities
Act (other than in connection with the initial issuance of the Certificates or a
transfer of such Class R-II Certificate by the Depositor or any of its
Affiliates), then the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register such
transfer unless it receives (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon)
either: (i) a certificate from the Certificateholder
A-14-3
desiring to effect such transfer substantially in the form attached to the
Agreement as Exhibit D-1 and a certificate from such Certificateholder's
prospective transferee substantially in the form attached to the Agreement
either as Exhibit D-2A or as Exhibit D-2B; or (ii) an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to the Trustee to the effect that such transfer may be made without
registration under the Securities Act (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an
expense of the Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Special
Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar in their respective
capacities as such), together with the written certification(s) as to the facts
surrounding such transfer on which such Opinion of Counsel is based. None of the
Depositor, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar is obligated to register or
qualify any Class R-II Certificates under the Securities Act or any other
securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under this Agreement
to permit the transfer of any Class R-II Certificate or interest therein without
registration or qualification. Any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner
desiring to effect a transfer of Class R-II Certificates or interests therein
shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify, the Depositor, the Underwriter, the
Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer and the Certificate Registrar
against any liability that may result if the transfer is not exempt from such
registration or qualification or is not made in accordance with such federal and
state laws.
No transfer of a Class R-II Certificate or any interest therein shall be
made (A) to any employee benefit plan or other retirement arrangement, including

arrangements are invested, including, without limitation, insurance company
general accounts, that is subject to ERISA or the Code (each, a "Plan"), or (B)

interest therein on behalf of, as named fiduciary of, as trustee of, or with
assets of a Plan, unless: (i) the purchase and holding of such Certificate or
interest therein is exempt from the prohibited transaction provisions of Section
406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code under Section I and III of Prohibited
Transaction Class Exemption 95-60; or (ii) the prospective Transferee provides
the Certificate Registrar with a certification of facts and an Opinion of
Counsel which establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee that such transfer
will not result in a violation of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the
Code or result in the imposition of an excise tax under Section 4975 of the Code
or subject the Depositor, the Trustee, the Fiscal Agent, the Master Servicer or
the Special Servicer to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in the
Agreement. Each Person who acquires any Class R-II Certificate or interest
therein (unless it shall have acquired such Certificate or interest therein from
the Depositor or an Affiliate thereof or unless it shall have delivered to the
Certificate Registrar the certification of facts and Opinion of Counsel referred
to in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence) shall be required to deliver to the
Certificate Registrar a certification to the effect that: (i) it is neither a
Plan nor any Person who is directly or indirectly purchasing such Class R-II
Certificate or interest therein on behalf of, as named fiduciary of, as trustee
of, or with assets of a Plan; or (ii) the purchase and holding of such
Certificate or interest therein by such person is exempt from the prohibited
