          On or prior to the Closing Date, the Seller acquired the Mortgage Loans from Xxxxxxxxx. On the Closing Date, the Seller will sell the Mortgage Loans and certain other property to the Trust and receive in consideration therefor Certificates evidencing the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust.

          The Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall make an election for the assets constituting REMIC I to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a REMIC. On the Startup Day, the REMIC I Regular Interests will be designated "regular interests" in such REMIC and the Class R-1 Certificate will be designated the "residual interest" in such REMIC.

          The Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall make an election for the assets constituting REMIC II to be treated for federal income tax purposes as a REMIC. On the Startup Day, the REMIC II Regular Certificates will be designated "regular interests" in such REMIC and the Class R-2 Certificate will be designated the "residual interest" in such REMIC.

          The Mortgage Loans will have an Outstanding Principal Balance as of the Cut-off Date, after deducting all Scheduled Principal due on or before the Cut-off Date, of $1,060,891,769.76. The initial principal amount of the Certificates will not exceed the sum of such Outstanding Principal Balance and the cash deposit made on the Closing Date pursuant to Section 2.01(a).

ARTICLE II

Conveyance of Mortgage Loans;
Original Issuance of Certificates

          Section 2.01 Conveyance of Mortgage Loans and Other Assets to the Trust. (a) The Seller concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, sells, transfers and assigns to the Trust without recourse all its right, title and interest in and to (i) the Mortgage Loans identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, including all interest and principal due with respect to the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-off Date, but excluding any payments of principal and interest due on or prior to the Cut-off Date (and excluding any Retained Interest on a Mortgage Loan); (ii) such assets relating to the Mortgage Loans as from time to time may be held by the Servicers in each Servicer Account, the Master Servicer in the Master Servicer Collection Account and the Trustee in the Distribution Account and the Yield Maintenance Account (but, in each case, excluding all investment earnings thereon), for the benefit of the Trust, (iii) any REO Property, (iv) the Required Insurance Policies and any amounts paid or payable by the insurer under any Insurance Policy (to the extent the mortgagee has a claim thereto), (v) the rights of the Seller in, but none of the obligations of the Seller with respect to, the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including but not limited to Seller's rights and obligations pursuant to each of the Servicing Agreements (noting that the Mortgage Loan Seller has also retained the right in the event of breach of the representations, warranties and covenants, if any, with respect to the related Mortgage Loans of the related Servicer under the related Servicing Agreement to enforce the provisions thereof and to seek all or any available remedies), (vi) its rights with respect to each of the Servicing Agreements, (vii) with respect to Additional Collateral Mortgage Loans (a) its rights as assignee under any security agreements, pledge agreements or guarantees relating to the Additional Collateral supporting any Additional Collateral Mortgage Loan, (b) its security interest in and to any Additional Collateral, and (c) its right to receive payments in respect of any Additional Collateral Mortgage Loan pursuant to the related Servicing Agreement, in each case, as previously conveyed to the Mortgage Loan Seller, and the Seller, (viii) its rights under the MLCC Limited Purpose Insurance Policy, and (ix) any proceeds of the foregoing. The Mortgage Loan Seller hereby consents to such transfer of the Seller's right, title and interest as set forth above.

          The foregoing sale, transfer, assignment, set-over, deposit and conveyance does not and is not intended to result in creation or assumption by the Trustee of any obligation of the Mortgage Loan Seller or the Seller or any other Person in connection with the Mortgage Loans or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto. The obligations of the Mortgage Loan Seller to substitute or repurchase, as applicable, a Mortgage Loan shall be the Trustee's, the Trust's and the Certificateholders' sole remedy for any breach thereof. At the request of the Trustee, the Seller shall take such actions as may be necessary to enforce the above right, title and interest on behalf of the Trustee and the Trust or shall execute such further documents as the Trustee may reasonably require in order to enable the Trustee to carry out such enforcement. The Mortgage Loan Seller hereby consents to such transfer of the Seller's right, title and interest as set forth above.

          In addition to the foregoing, the Seller shall deliver to the Trustee on the Closing Date, for deposit into the Distribution Account, the sum of $100.00, to be distributed in accordance with Section 6.01(a)(i)(A) hereof.

          For purposes of complying with the requirements of the Asset-Backed Securities Facilitation Act of the State of Delaware, 6 Del. C. § 2701A, et seq. (the "Securitization Act"), each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that:

           (i) any property, assets or rights purported to be transferred, in whole or in part, by the Seller pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to no longer be the property, assets or rights of the Seller;

           (ii) none of the Seller, its creditors or, in any insolvency proceeding with respect to the Seller or the Seller's property, a bankruptcy trustee, receiver, debtor, debtor in possession or similar person, to the extent the issue is governed by Delaware law, shall have any rights, legal or equitable, whatsoever to reacquire (except pursuant to a provision of this Agreement), reclaim, recover, repudiate, disaffirm, redeem or recharacterize as property of the Seller any property, assets or rights purported to be transferred, in whole or in part, by the Seller pursuant to this Agreement (including the Assignment);

           (iii) in the event of a bankruptcy, receivership or other insolvency proceeding with respect to the Seller or the Seller's property, to the extent the issue is governed by Delaware law, such property, assets and rights shall not be deemed to be part of the Seller's property, assets, rights or estate; and

           (iv) the transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall constitute a "securitization transaction" as such term is used in the Securitization Act.

          Although it is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that the conveyance of the Seller's right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and other assets in the Trust pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan, in the event that such conveyance is deemed to be a loan, it is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that the Seller shall be deemed to have granted to the Trustee a first priority perfected security interest in all of the Seller's right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans and other assets in the Trust, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

          (b) In connection with such transfer and assignment, the Mortgage Loan Seller, on behalf of the Seller does hereby deliver to, and deposit with, or cause to be delivered to and deposited with, the Trustee, and/or any Custodian acting on the Trustee's behalf, if applicable, the following documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan except, in the case of the 1998-1 Mortgage Loans, those documents and instruments listed on Exhibit K hereto (each a "Mortgage File") so transferred and assigned:

           (i) with respect to each Mortgage Loan, (a) the original Mortgage Note endorsed without recourse, in blank or in substantially the following form: pay to the order of Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee for Xxxxxxxxx Mortgage Securities Trust 2003-2, without recourse" (in each case, with all necessary intervening endorsements as applicable), or (b) with respect to 38 Mortgage Loans, Lost Note Affidavits in lieu thereof;

           (ii) the original of any guarantee, security agreement or pledge agreement relating to any Additional Collateral, if applicable, and executed in connection with the Mortgage Note, assigned to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust;

           (iii) with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Cooperative Loan), the original recorded Security Instrument with evidence of recording indicated thereon and the original recorded power of attorney, if the Security Instrument was executed pursuant to a power of attorney, with evidence of recording thereon or, if such Security Instrument or power of attorney has been submitted for recording but has not been returned from the applicable public recording office, has been lost or is not otherwise available, a copy of such Security Instrument or power of attorney, as the case may be, certified to be a true and complete copy of the original submitted for recording. If, in connection with any Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Loan Seller cannot deliver the Security Instrument with evidence of recording thereon on or prior to the Closing Date because of a delay caused by the public recording office where such Security Instrument has been delivered for recordation or because such Security Instrument has been lost, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee (or its Custodian) on behalf of the Trust, in the case of a delay due to recording, a true copy of such Security Instrument, pending delivery of the original thereof, together with an Officer's Certificate of the Mortgage Loan Seller certifying that the copy of such Security Instrument delivered to the Trustee (or its Custodian) is a true copy and that the original of such Security Instrument has been forwarded to the public recording office, or, in the case of a Security Instrument that has been lost, a copy thereof (certified as provided for under the laws of the appropriate jurisdiction) and a written Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the Trustee and the Seller that an original recorded Security Instrument is not required to enforce the Trustee's interest in the Mortgage Loan;

           (iv) the original of each assumption, modification or substitution agreement, if any, relating to the Mortgage Loans, or, as to any assumption, modification or substitution agreement which cannot be delivered on or prior to the Closing Date because of a delay caused by the public recording office where such assumption, modification or substitution agreement has been delivered for recordation, a photocopy of such assumption, modification or substitution agreement, pending delivery of the original thereof, together with an Officer's Certificate of the Mortgage Loan Seller certifying that the copy of such assumption, modification or substitution agreement delivered to the Trustee (or its custodian) on behalf of the Trust is a true copy and that the original of such agreement has been forwarded to the public recording office;

           (v) with respect to each Non-MERS Mortgage Loan (other than a Cooperative Loan), the original assignment of mortgage for each Mortgage Loan;

           (vi) if applicable, such original intervening assignments of the Security Instrument, notice of transfer or equivalent instrument (each, an "Intervening Assignment"), as may be necessary to show a complete chain of assignment from the originator, or, in the case of an Intervening Assignment that has been lost, a written Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the Trustee that such original Intervening Assignment is not required to enforce the Trustee's interest in the Mortgage Loans;

           (vii) the original Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if any, or certificate, if private mortgage guaranty insurance is required;

           (viii) with respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than a Cooperative Loan), the original mortgagee title insurance policy or attorney's opinion of title and abstract of title;

           (ix) the original of any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent executed in connection with the Security Instrument or as to any security agreement, chattel mortgage or their equivalent that cannot be delivered on or prior to the Closing Date because of a delay caused by the public recording office where such document has been delivered for recordation, a photocopy of such document, pending delivery of the original thereof, together with an Officer's Certificate of the Mortgage Loan Seller certifying that the copy of such security agreement, chattel mortgage or their equivalent delivered to the Trustee (or its custodian) on behalf of the Trust is a true copy and that the original of such document has been forwarded to the public recording office; and

           (x) with respect to any Cooperative Loan, the Cooperative Loan Documents.

          (c) (i) Assignments of each Security Instrument with respect to each Non-MERS Mortgage Loan (other than a Cooperative Loan) shall be recorded; provided, however, that such assignments need not be recorded if, in the Opinion of Counsel (which must be from Independent counsel and not at the expense of the Trust or the Trustee) acceptable to the Trustee, each Rating Agency and the Master Servicer, recording in such states is not required to protect the Trust's interest in the related Non-MERS Mortgage Loans; provided, however, notwithstanding the delivery of any Opinion of Counsel, each assignment of Security Instrument shall be submitted for recording by the Mortgage Loan Seller (or the Mortgage Loan Seller will cause the applicable Servicer to submit each such assignment for recording), at the cost and expense of the Mortgage Loan Seller, in the manner described above, at no expense to the Trust or Trustee, upon the earliest to occur of (1) reasonable direction by the Holders of Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than 51% of the Trust, (2) the occurrence of a bankruptcy or insolvency relating to the Mortgage Loan Seller or the Seller, or (3) with respect to any one assignment of Security Instrument, the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage. Subject to the preceding sentence, as soon as practicable after the Closing Date (but in no event more than 3 months thereafter except to the extent delays are caused by the applicable recording office), the Mortgage Loan Seller shall properly record (or the Mortgage Loan Seller will cause the applicable Servicer to properly record), at the expense of the Mortgage Loan Seller (with the cooperation of the Seller, the Trustee and the Master Servicer), in each public recording office where the related Mortgages are recorded, each assignment referred to in subsection (b)(v) above with respect to a Non-MERS Mortgage Loan.

           (ii) With respect to each Cooperative Loan, the Mortgage Loan Seller will take (or shall cause the applicable Servicer to take), at the expense of the Mortgage Loan Seller (with the cooperation of the Seller, the Trustee and the Master Servicer), such actions as are necessary under applicable law in order to perfect the interest of the Trust in the related Mortgaged Property.

           (iii) With respect to each MERS Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Loan Seller will take (or shall cause the applicable Servicer to take), at the expense of the Mortgage Loan Seller (with the cooperation of the Seller, the Trustee and the Master Servicer), such actions as are necessary to cause the Trust to be clearly identified as the owner of each such Mortgage Loan on the records of MERS for purposes of the system of recording transfers of beneficial ownership of mortgages maintained by MERS.

          (d) In addition, in instances where a title insurance policy is required to be delivered to the Trustee, or to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, under clause (b)(viii) above or, with respect to the 1998-1 Mortgage Loans, pursuant to Exhibit K, and is not so delivered, the Mortgage Loan Seller will provide a copy of such title insurance policy to the Trustee, or to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, as promptly as practicable after the execution and delivery hereof, but in any case within 180 days of the Closing Date.

          (e) For Mortgage Loans (if any) that have been prepaid in full after the Cut-off Date and prior to the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan Seller, in lieu of delivering the above documents, herewith delivers to the Trustee, or to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, an Officer's Certificate which shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection with such prepayment that are required to be deposited in the Distribution Account are to be remitted by the related Servicers in accordance with their respective Servicing Agreements. All original documents that are not delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee shall be held by the Master Servicer or the applicable Servicer in trust for the Trustee, for the benefit of the Trust and the Certificateholders.

          (f) With respect to each Mortgage Loan as to which a Lost Note Affidavit has been delivered in lieu of an original Mortgage Note, the Mortgage Loan Seller indemnifies the Trustee and the Trust and holds them harmless against any losses resulting from an inability to enforce the Mortgagor's obligations under such Mortgage Loan or to foreclose on the related Mortgaged Property, or any reduction in Liquidation Proceeds on foreclosure, or any other loss, in each case resulting from lack of possession of the original Mortgage Note.

           Section 2.02 Acceptance of Mortgage Loans and Other Trust Assets by Trustee.

          (a) The Trustee acknowledges the sale, transfer and assignment of the Mortgage Loans and other assets as provided in Section 2.01(a) to the Trust by the Seller and receipt of, subject to further review and the exceptions which may be noted pursuant to the procedures described below, and declares that it holds, the documents (or certified copies thereof) delivered to it pursuant to Section 2.01(b), and declares that it will continue to hold those documents and any amendments, replacements or supplements thereto and all other assets of the Trust delivered to it as Trustee in trust for the Trust (for the benefit of all present and future Holders of the Certificates). On the Closing Date, the Trustee (or Custodian on its behalf), with respect to the Mortgage Loans, shall acknowledge with respect to each Mortgage Loan by an Initial Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit C-1 hereto receipt of the Mortgage File, but without review of such Mortgage File, except to the extent necessary to confirm that such Mortgage File contains the related Mortgage Note or Lost Note Affidavit. No later than 90 days after the Closing Date (or, with respect to any Substitute Mortgage Loan, within five Business Days after the receipt by the Trustee or Custodian thereof), the Trustee agrees, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to review, or cause to be reviewed by a Custodian on its behalf (under a Custodial Agreement), each Mortgage File delivered to it and to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Seller and the Master Servicer, an Interim Certification substantially in the form annexed as Exhibit C-2 hereto. In conducting such review, the Trustee (or Custodian) will ascertain whether all required documents have been executed and received, and based on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, whether those documents relate, determined on the basis of the Mortgagor name, original principal balance and loan number, to the Mortgage Loans it has received, as identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule. In performing any such review, the Trustee (or the Custodian, as its agent) may conclusively rely on the purported due execution and genuineness of any such document and on the purported genuineness of any signature thereon. If the Trustee (or the Custodian, as its agent) finds any document constituting part of the Mortgage File not to have been executed or received, or to be unrelated to the Mortgage Loans identified in Exhibit B or to appear to be defective on its face, the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, shall promptly notify the Mortgage Loan Seller (provided, however, that with respect to those documents described in subsection (b)(iv), (b)(vi), (b)(vii) and (b)(ix) of Section 2.01 (or, with respect to the 1998-1 Mortgage Loans, any such documents described in Exhibit K), the Trustee's obligations shall extend only to the documents actually delivered pursuant to such subsections). In accordance with the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall correct or cure any such defect within ninety (90) days from the date of notice from the Trustee (or the Custodian, as its agent) of the defect and if the Mortgage Loan Seller fails to correct or cure the defect within such period, and such defect materially and adversely affects the interests of the Trust or the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan, the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, shall enforce the Mortgage Loan Seller's obligation pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, within 90 days from the Trustee's or the Custodian's notification, to purchase such Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price; provided that, if such defect would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a "qualified mortgage" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure or repurchase must occur within 90 days from the date such breach was discovered. The foregoing repurchase obligation shall not apply in the event that the Mortgage Loan Seller cannot deliver such original or copy of any document submitted for recording to the appropriate recording office in the applicable jurisdiction because such document has not been returned by such office; provided that the Mortgage Loan Seller shall instead deliver a recording receipt of such recording office or, if such receipt is not available, an Officer's Certificate confirming that such documents have been accepted for recording, and delivery to the Trustee (or the Custodian, as its agent) shall be effected by the Mortgage Loan Seller within thirty days of its receipt of the original recorded document.

          (b) No later than 180 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee (or the Custodian, as its agent) will determine whether all documents required to be in the Mortgage Files were delivered to it and will execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered to the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Seller and the Master Servicer a Final Certification substantially in the form annexed as Exhibit C-3 hereto. In making such determination, the Trustee (or the Custodian, as its agent) will ascertain whether an original of each document required to be recorded has been returned from the recording office with evidence of recording thereon or a certified copy has been obtained from the recording office. If the Trustee (or the Custodian, as its agent) finds any document constituting part of the Mortgage File has not been received, or to be unrelated, determined on the basis of the Mortgagor name, original principal balance and loan number, to the Mortgage Loans identified in Exhibit B or to appear defective on its face, the Trustee (or the Custodian, as its agent) shall promptly notify the Mortgage Loan Seller (provided, however, that with respect to those documents described in subsection (b)(iv), (b)(vi), (b)(vii) and (b)(ix) of Section 2.01 (or, with respect to the 1998-1 Mortgage Loans, any such documents described in Exhibit K), the Trustee's obligations shall extend only to the documents actually delivered pursuant to such subsections). In accordance with the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall correct or cure any such defect or the Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such defect does not materially or adversely affect the interests of the Trust or the Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan within 90 days from the date of notice from the Trustee of the defect and if the Mortgage Loan Seller is unable to cure such defect within such period, and if such defect materially and adversely affects the interests of the Trust or the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall enforce the Mortgage Loan Seller's obligation under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to purchase such Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price. The foregoing repurchase obligation shall not apply in the event that the Mortgage Loan Seller cannot deliver such original or copy of any document submitted for recording to the appropriate recording office in the applicable jurisdiction because such document has not been returned by such office; provided that the Mortgage Loan Seller shall instead deliver a recording receipt of such recording office or, if such receipt is not available, an Officer's Certificate confirming that such documents have been accepted for recording, and delivery to the Trustee (or the Custodian, as its agent) shall be effected by the Mortgage Loan Seller within thirty days of its receipt of the original recorded document.

          (c) In the event that a Mortgage Loan is purchased by the Mortgage Loan Seller in accordance with Subsections 2.02(a) or (b) above or as a consequence of a breach of representation or warranty under Section 2.07 below, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall remit to the Trustee the Repurchase Price for deposit in the Distribution Account and the Mortgage Loan Seller shall provide to the Trustee written details concerning the components of the Repurchase Price. Upon deposit of the Repurchase Price in the Distribution Account, the Trustee shall notify the Seller and the Master Servicer, and the Trustee (or the Custodian, as its agent) (upon receipt of a Request for Release to be executed by the Mortgage Loan Seller in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto with respect to such Mortgage Loan), shall release to the Mortgage Loan Seller the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver all instruments of transfer or assignment, without recourse, furnished to it by the Mortgage Loan Seller as are necessary to vest in the Mortgage Loan Seller title to and rights under the Mortgage Loan. Such purchase shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the Repurchase Price in available funds is received by the Trustee. The Trustee shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule, which was previously delivered to it by the Seller in a form agreed to between the Seller and the Trustee, to reflect such repurchase and shall promptly notify each Rating Agency and the Master Servicer of such amendment. The obligation of the Mortgage Loan Seller to repurchase any Mortgage Loan as to which such a defect in a constituent document exists shall be the sole remedy respecting such defect available to the Trust, the Certificateholders, or to the Trustee on their behalf.

          Section 2.03 Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. If the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee discovers a breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement as incorporated by reference herein pursuant to Section 2.07, which breach materially and adversely affects the value of the interests of the Trust, the Certificateholders or the Trustee in the related Mortgage Loan, the party discovering the breach shall give prompt written notice of the breach to the other parties. The Mortgage Loan Seller, within 90 days of its discovery or receipt of notice that such breach has occurred (whichever occurs earlier), shall cure the breach in all material respects or, subject to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or Section 2.04 of this Agreement, as applicable, shall purchase the Mortgage Loan or any property acquired with respect thereto from the Trust; provided, however, that if there is a breach of any representation set forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or Section 2.04 of this Agreement, as applicable, and the Mortgage Loan or the related property acquired with respect thereto has been sold, then the Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay, in lieu of the Repurchase Price, any excess of the Repurchase Price over the Net Liquidation Proceeds received upon such sale. (If the Net Liquidation Proceeds exceed the Repurchase Price, any excess shall be paid to the Mortgage Loan Seller to the extent not required by law to be paid to the borrower.) Any such purchase by the Mortgage Loan Seller shall be made by providing an amount equal to the Repurchase Price to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account and written notification containing details of the components of such Repurchase Price. Upon receipt of notice from the Trustee of the deposit of the Repurchase Price in the Distribution Account, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall execute and deliver a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto with respect to such Mortgage Loan, and the Trustee shall release, or the Trustee shall cause the Custodian to release, to the Mortgage Loan Seller the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver all instruments of transfer or assignment furnished to it by the Mortgage Loan Seller, without recourse, as are necessary to vest in the Mortgage Loan Seller title to and rights under the Mortgage Loan or any property acquired with respect thereto. Such purchase shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the Repurchase Price in available funds is received by the Trustee. The Trustee shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect such repurchase and shall promptly notify the Master Servicer and each Rating Agency of such amendment. Enforcement of the obligation of the Mortgage Loan Seller to purchase (or substitute a Substitute Mortgage Loan for) any Mortgage Loan or any property acquired with respect thereto (or pay the Repurchase Price as set forth in the above proviso) as to which a breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to the Trust, the Certificateholders or the Trustee on their behalf.

          Section 2.04 Substitution of Mortgage Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in lieu of purchasing a Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or Sections 2.02 or 2.03 of this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan Seller may, no later than the date by which such purchase by the Mortgage Loan Seller would otherwise be required, tender to the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, a Substitute Mortgage Loan accompanied by a certificate of an authorized officer of the Mortgage Loan Seller that such Substitute Mortgage Loan conforms to the requirements set forth in the definition of "Substitute Mortgage Loan" in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement; provided, however, that substitution pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or Section 2.04 of this Agreement, as applicable, in lieu of purchase shall not be permitted after the termination of the two-year period beginning on the Startup Day; provided, further, that if the breach would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a "qualified mortgage" as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure or substitution must occur within 90 days from the date the breach was discovered. The Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, shall examine the Mortgage File for any Substitute Mortgage Loan in the manner set forth in Section 2.02(a) and the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, shall notify the Mortgage Loan Seller, in writing, within five Business Days after receipt, whether or not the documents relating to the Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfy the requirements of the fourth sentence of Subsection 2.02(a). Within two Business Days after such notification, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall provide to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account the amount, if any, by which the Outstanding Principal Balance as of the next preceding Due Date of the Mortgage Loan for which substitution is being made, after giving effect to Scheduled Principal due on such date, exceeds the Outstanding Principal Balance as of such date of the Substitute Mortgage Loan, after giving effect to Scheduled Principal due on such date (a "Substitution Adjustment Amount"), which amount shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement as if it were the payment by the Mortgage Loan Seller of the Repurchase Price for the purchase of a Mortgage Loan by the Mortgage Loan Seller. After such notification to the Mortgage Loan Seller and, if any such excess exists, upon receipt of such deposit, the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall accept such Substitute Mortgage Loan which shall thereafter be deemed to be a Mortgage Loan hereunder. In the event of such a substitution, accrued interest on the Substitute Mortgage Loan for the month in which the substitution occurs and any Principal Prepayments made thereon during such month shall be the property of the Trust, and accrued interest for such month on the Mortgage Loan being repurchased by the Mortgage Loan Seller and any Principal Prepayments made thereon during such month shall be the property of the Mortgage Loan Seller. The Scheduled Principal on a Substitute Mortgage Loan due on the Due Date in the month of substitution shall be the property of the Mortgage Loan Seller and the Scheduled Principal on the Mortgage Loan for which the substitution is made due on such Due Date shall be the property of the Trust. Upon acceptance of the Substitute Mortgage Loan (and delivery to the Trustee (or Custodian) of a Request for Release for such Mortgage Loan), the Trustee shall release to the Mortgage Loan Seller the related Mortgage File related to any Mortgage Loan released pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or Section 2.04 of this Agreement, as applicable, and shall execute and deliver all instruments of transfer or assignment, without recourse, in form as provided to it as are necessary to vest in the Mortgage Loan Seller title to and rights under any Mortgage Loan released pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or Section 2.04 of this Agreement, as applicable. The Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver the documents related to the Substitute Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or Subsections 2.01(b) and 2.02(b) of this Agreement, as applicable, with the date of acceptance of the Substitute Mortgage Loan deemed to be the Closing Date for purposes of the time periods set forth in those Subsections. The representations and warranties set forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall be deemed to have been made by the Mortgage Loan Seller with respect to each Substitute Mortgage Loan as of the date of acceptance of such Mortgage Loan by the Trustee on behalf of the Trust. The Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect such substitution and shall provide a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee and each Rating Agency.

          Section 2.05 Issuance of Certificates. The Trustee on behalf of the Trust acknowledges the assignment to it of the Mortgage Loans and the other assets comprising the Trust and, concurrently therewith, has signed, and countersigned and delivered to the Seller, in exchange therefor, Certificates in such authorized denominations representing such Fractional Undivided Interests as the Seller has requested. The Trustee agrees that it will hold the Mortgage Loans and such other assets as may from time to time be delivered to it segregated on the books of the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Trust and the Certificateholders.

          The Seller, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey in trust to the Trustee without recourse all the right, title and interest of the Seller in and to the REMIC I Regular Interests and the other assets of REMIC II for the benefit of the holders of the REMIC II Interests. The Trustee acknowledges receipt of the REMIC I Regular Interests (which are uncertificated) and the other assets of REMIC II and declares that it holds and will hold the same in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of the holders of the REMIC II Certificates.

           Section 2.06 Representations and Warranties Concerning the Seller. The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator as follows:

Administration and Servicing of Mortgage Loans

          Section 3.01 Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall supervise, monitor and oversee the obligation of the Servicers to service or sub-master service, as applicable, and administer their respective Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of the applicable Servicing Agreement and, where applicable, the Correspondent Sellers Guide and the Master Servicing Guide, and shall have full power and authority to do any and all things which it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such master servicing and administration. In performing its obligations hereunder, the Master Servicer shall act in a manner consistent with Accepted Master Servicing Practices and, where applicable, the Master Servicing Guide. Furthermore, the Master Servicer shall oversee and consult with each Servicer as necessary from time-to-time to carry out the Master Servicer's obligations hereunder, shall receive, review and evaluate all reports, information and other data provided to the Master Servicer by each Servicer and shall cause each Servicer to perform and observe the covenants, obligations and conditions to be performed or observed by such Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall independently and separately monitor each Servicer's servicing activities with respect to each related Mortgage Loan, reconcile the results of such monitoring with such information provided in the previous sentence on a monthly basis and coordinate corrective adjustments to the Servicers' and Master Servicer's records, and based on such reconciled and corrected information, prepare the statements specified in Section 6.04 and any other information and statements required hereunder. The Master Servicer shall reconcile the results of its Mortgage Loan monitoring with the actual remittances of the Servicers to the related Servicer Accounts pursuant to the applicable Servicing Agreements. The Master Servicer is hereby directed, solely in its capacity as master servicer and on behalf of the Trust, to enter into the Servicing Agreement specified on Exhibit H with the Sub-Master Servicer.

          The Trustee shall furnish the Servicers and the Master Servicer with any limited powers of attorney and other documents in form as provided to it necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicers and the Master Servicer to service and administer the related Mortgage Loans and REO Property, which limited powers of attorney shall provide that the Trustee will not be liable for the actions or omissions of the Servicers or Master Servicer in exercising such powers.

          The Trustee shall provide access to the records and documentation in possession of the Trustee (including in its capacity as Custodian hereunder) regarding the related Mortgage Loans and REO Property and the servicing thereof to the Certificateholders, the FDIC, and the supervisory agents and examiners of the FDIC, such access being afforded only upon reasonable prior written request and during normal business hours at the office of the Trustee; provided, however, that, unless otherwise required by law, the Trustee shall not be required to provide access to such records and documentation if the provision thereof would violate the legal right to privacy of any Mortgagor. The Trustee shall allow representatives of the above entities to photocopy any of the records and documentation and shall provide equipment for that purpose at a charge that covers the Trustee's actual costs.

          The Trustee shall execute and deliver to the related Servicer and the Master Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee's sale or other documents necessary or desirable to (i) the foreclosure or trustee's sale with respect to a Mortgaged Property; (ii) any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Security Instrument; (iii) obtain a deficiency judgment against the Mortgagor; or (iv) enforce any other rights or remedies provided by the Mortgage Note or Security Instrument or otherwise available at law or equity.

          Section 3.02 REMIC-Related Covenants. For as long as each REMIC shall exist, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall act in accordance herewith to assure continuing treatment of such REMIC as a REMIC, and the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall comply with any directions of the Seller, the related Servicer or the Master Servicer to assure such continuing treatment. In particular, the Trustee shall not (a) sell or permit the sale of all or any portion of the Mortgage Loans or of any investment of deposits in an Account unless such sale is as a result of a repurchase of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement or the Trustee has received a REMIC Opinion prepared at the expense of the Trust; and (b) other than with respect to a substitution pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or Section 2.04 of this Agreement, as applicable, accept any contribution to any REMIC after the Startup Day without receipt of a REMIC Opinion.

          Section 3.03 Monitoring of Servicers. (a) The Master Servicer shall be responsible for reporting to the Trustee (on behalf of the Trust) and the Seller the compliance by each Servicer with its duties under the related Servicing Agreement. In the review of each Servicer's activities, the Master Servicer may rely upon an officer's certificate of the Servicer with regard to such Servicer's compliance with the terms of its Servicing Agreement. In the event that the Master Servicer, in its judgment, determines that a Servicer should be terminated in accordance with its Servicing Agreement, or that a notice should be sent pursuant to such Servicing Agreement with respect to the occurrence of an event that, unless cured, would constitute grounds for such termination, the Master Servicer shall notify the Seller and the Trustee thereof and the Master Servicer shall issue such notice or take such other action as it deems appropriate.

          (b) The Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Trust and the Certificateholders, shall (acting as agent of the Trust when enforcing the Trust's rights under each Servicing Agreement) (i) enforce the obligations of each Servicer under the related Servicing Agreement and (ii) in the event that a Servicer fails to perform its obligations in accordance with the related Servicing Agreement, subject to the preceding paragraph, terminate the rights and obligations of such Servicer thereunder and act as servicer of the related Mortgage Loans or as successor sub-master servicer to the Sub-Master Servicer or cause the Trustee to enter in to a new Servicing Agreement with a successor Servicer selected by the Master Servicer; provided, however, it is understood and acknowledged by the parties hereto that there will be a period of transition (not to exceed 90 days) before the actual servicing functions can be fully transferred to such successor Servicer. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Servicing Agreements and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Master Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, provided that the Master Servicer shall not be required to prosecute or defend any legal action except to the extent that the Master Servicer shall have received reasonable indemnity for its costs and expenses in pursuing such action.

          (c) To the extent that the costs and expenses of the Master Servicer related to any termination of a Servicer, appointment of a successor Servicer or the transfer and assumption of servicing by the Master Servicer with respect to any Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, (i) all legal costs and expenses and all due diligence costs and expenses associated with an evaluation of the potential termination of the Servicer as a result of an event of default by such Servicer and (ii) all costs and expenses associated with the complete transfer of servicing, including all servicing files and all servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be required by the successor servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the successor servicer to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the related Servicing Agreement) are not fully and timely reimbursed by the terminated Servicer, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of such costs and expenses from the Master Servicer Collection Account.

          (d) The Master Servicer shall require each Servicer to comply with the remittance and certification requirements and other obligations set forth in the related Servicing Agreement.

          (e) If the Master Servicer acts as Servicer, it will not assume liability for the representations and warranties of the Servicer, if any, that it replaces.

          (f) With respect to Additional Collateral Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer shall have no duty or obligation to supervise, monitor or oversee the activities of any Servicer under its Servicing Agreement with respect to Additional Collateral, except (a) with respect to any instances where a Servicer, in the course of fulfilling its obligations under the related Servicing Agreement seeks directions, instructions, consents or waivers from the Master Servicer with respect to any item of Additional Collateral, or (b) upon the occurrence of the following events (i) in the case of a final liquidation of any Mortgaged Property secured by Additional Collateral, the Master Servicer shall enforce the obligation of the Servicer under the related Servicing Agreement to liquidate such Additional Collateral as required by such Servicing Agreement, and (ii) if the Master Servicer assumes the obligations of such Servicer as successor Servicer under the related Servicing Agreement pursuant to this Section 3.03, as successor Servicer, it shall be bound to service and administer the Additional Collateral in accordance with the provisions of such Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall have no duty or obligation to supervise, monitor or oversee the activities of any Primary Servicer under its Servicing Agreement for which the Sub-Master Servicer is the master servicer.

          Section 3.04 Fidelity Bond. The Master Servicer, at its expense, shall maintain in effect a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, affording coverage with respect to all directors, officers, employees and other Persons acting on such Master Servicer's behalf, and covering errors and omissions in the performance of the Master Servicer's obligations hereunder. The errors and omissions insurance policy and the fidelity bond shall be in such form and amount generally acceptable for entities serving as master servicers or trustees.

          Section 3.05 Power to Act; Procedures. The Master Servicer shall master service the Mortgage Loans and shall have full power and authority, subject to the REMIC Provisions and the provisions of Article X hereof, to do any and all things that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the master servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans, including but not limited to the power and authority (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Trust and the Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages, (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate, in its own name, on behalf the Trust, or in the name of the Trust, foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan, in each case, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not (and, consistent with its responsibilities under Section 3.03, shall not permit any Servicer to) knowingly or intentionally take any action, or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action reasonably within its control and the scope of duties more specifically set forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, would cause REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) unless the Master Servicer has received an Opinion of Counsel (but not at the expense of the Master Servicer) to the effect that the contemplated action will not cause REMIC I or REMIC II to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of a tax upon REMIC I or REMIC II, as the case may be. The Trustee shall furnish the Master Servicer, upon written request from a servicing officer, with any limited powers of attorney empowering the Master Servicer or any Servicer to execute and deliver instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and to foreclose upon or otherwise liquidate Mortgaged Property, and to appeal, prosecute or defend in any court action relating to the Mortgage Loans or the Mortgaged Property, in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such other documents, as the Master Servicer may request, to enable the Master Servicer to master service and administer the Mortgage Loans and carry out its duties hereunder, in each case in accordance with Accepted Master Servicing Practices (and the Trustee shall have no liability for misuse of any such powers of attorney by the Master Servicer or any Servicer). In instituting foreclosures or similar proceedings, the Master Servicer shall institute such proceedings either in its own name on behalf of the Trust or in the name of the Trust (or cause the related Servicer, pursuant to the related Servicing Agreement, to institute such proceedings either in the name of such Servicer on behalf of the Trust or in the name of the Trust), unless otherwise required by law or otherwise appropriate. If the Master Servicer or the Trustee has been advised that it is likely that the laws of the state in which action is to be taken prohibit such action if taken in the name of the Trust or the Trustee on its behalf or that the Trust or the Trustee, as applicable, would be adversely affected under the "doing business" or tax laws of such state if such action is taken in its name, the Master Servicer shall join with the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, in the appointment of a co-trustee pursuant to Section 9.11 hereof. In the performance of its duties hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be an independent contractor and shall not, except in those instances where it is taking action in the name of the Trustee, be deemed to be the agent of the Trustee.

          Section 3.06 Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements. To the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement and to the extent Mortgage Loans contain enforceable due-on-sale clauses, the Master Servicer shall cause the Servicers to enforce such clauses in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement. If applicable law prohibits the enforcement of a due-on-sale clause or such clause is otherwise not enforced in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement, and, as a consequence, a Mortgage Loan is assumed, the original Mortgagor may be released from liability in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement.

          Section 3.07 Release of Mortgage Files. (a) Upon becoming aware of the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by any Servicer of a notification that payment in full has been escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes for payment to Certificateholders on the next Distribution Date, the Master Servicer will cause the Servicer, if required under the applicable Servicing Agreement, to promptly furnish to the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, two copies of a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto signed by a servicing officer or in a mutually agreeable electronic format which will, in lieu of a signature on its face, originate from a servicing officer (which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection with such payment that are required to be deposited in the related Servicer Account maintained by the applicable Servicer pursuant to Section 4.01 or by the applicable Servicer pursuant to its Servicing Agreement have been or will be so deposited) and shall request that the Trustee (or the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee) deliver to the applicable Servicer the related Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Trustee (or the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee), shall promptly release the related Mortgage File to the applicable Servicer and the Trustee (and the Custodian, if applicable) shall have no further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File. Upon any such payment in full, each Servicer is authorized, to give, as agent for the Trustee, as the mortgagee under the Mortgage that secured the Mortgage Loan, an instrument of satisfaction (or assignment of mortgage without recourse) regarding the Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage, which instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall be delivered to the Person or Persons entitled thereto against receipt therefor of such payment, it being understood and agreed that no expenses incurred in connection with such instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall be chargeable to the related Servicer Account.

          (b) From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall execute such documents as shall be prepared and furnished to the Trustee by a Servicer or the Master Servicer (in form reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) and as are necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings. The Trustee (or the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee), shall, upon the request of a Servicer or the Master Servicer, and delivery to the Trustee (the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee), of two copies of a request for release signed by a servicing officer substantially in the form of Exhibit D (or in a mutually agreeable electronic format which will, in lieu of a signature on its face, originate from a servicing officer), release the related Mortgage File held in its possession or control to the Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable. Such trust receipt shall obligate the Servicer or the Master Servicer to return the Mortgage File to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) when the need therefor by the Servicer or the Master Servicer no longer exists unless the Mortgage Loan shall be liquidated, in which case, upon receipt of a certificate of a servicing officer similar to that hereinabove specified, the Mortgage File shall be released by the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee), to the Servicer or the Master Servicer.

           Section 3.08 Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of Master Servicer To Be Held for Trust.

          (a) The Master Servicer shall transmit and each Servicer (to the extent required by the related Servicing Agreement) shall transmit to the Trustee (or Custodian) such documents and instruments coming into the possession of the Master Servicer or such Servicer from time to time as are required by the terms hereof, or in the case of the Servicers, the applicable Servicing Agreement, to be delivered to the Trustee (or Custodian). Any funds received by the Master Servicer or by a Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loan or which otherwise are collected by the Master Servicer or by a Servicer as Net Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage Loan shall be held for the benefit of the Trust and the Certificateholders subject to the Master Servicer's right to retain or withdraw from the Master Servicer Collection Account the Master Servicing Fee, any additional compensation pursuant to Section 3.14 and any other amounts provided in this Agreement, and to the right of each Servicer to retain its Servicing Fee and any other amounts as provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall, and (to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement) shall cause each Servicer to, provide access to information and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee, its agents and accountants at any time upon reasonable request and during normal business hours, and to Certificateholders that are savings and loan associations, banks or insurance companies, the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC and the supervisory agents and examiners of such Office and Corporation or examiners of any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority if so required by applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision or other regulatory authority, such access to be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable request in writing and during normal business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer designated by it. In fulfilling such a request the Master Servicer shall not be responsible for determining the sufficiency of such information.

          (b) All Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the Master Servicer, in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether from the collection of principal and interest payments or from Net Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds, shall be held by the Master Servicer for and on behalf of the Trust and the Certificateholders and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Trust; provided, however, that the Master Servicer and each Servicer shall be entitled to setoff against, and deduct from, any such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to the Master Servicer or such Servicer under this Agreement or the applicable Servicing Agreement.

           Section 3.09 Standard Hazard Insurance and Flood Insurance Policies.

          (a) For each Mortgage Loan (other than a Cooperative Loan), the Master Servicer shall enforce any obligation of the Servicers under the related Servicing Agreements to maintain or cause to be maintained standard fire and casualty insurance and, where applicable, flood insurance, all in accordance with the provisions of the related Servicing Agreements. It is understood and agreed that such insurance shall be with insurers meeting the eligibility requirements set forth in the applicable Servicing Agreement and that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or to be maintained on property acquired in respect of a defaulted loan, other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance.

          (b) Pursuant to Section 4.01 and 4.02, any amounts collected by the Servicers or the Master Servicer, or by any Servicer, under any insurance policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the related Mortgage or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement) shall be deposited into the Master Servicer Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.02 and 4.03. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer or any Servicer in maintaining any such insurance if the Mortgagor defaults in its obligation to do so shall be added to the amount owing under the Mortgage Loan where the terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit; provided, however, that the addition of any such cost shall not be taken into account for purposes of calculating the distributions to be made to Certificateholders and shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer or such Servicer pursuant to Section 4.02 and 4.03.

          Section 3.10 Presentment of Claims and Collection of Proceeds. The Master Servicer shall (to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement) cause the related Servicer to, prepare and present on behalf of the Trustee, the Trust and the Certificateholders all claims under the Insurance Policies and take such actions (including the negotiation, settlement, compromise or enforcement of the insured's claim) as shall be necessary to realize recovery under such policies. Any proceeds disbursed to the Master Servicer (or disbursed to a Servicer and remitted to the Master Servicer) in respect of such policies, bonds or contracts shall be promptly deposited in the Master Servicer Collection Account upon receipt, except that any amounts realized that are to be applied to the repair or restoration of the related Mortgaged Property as a condition precedent to the presentation of claims on the related Mortgage Loan to the insurer under any applicable Insurance Policy need not be so deposited (or remitted).

           Section 3.11 Maintenance of the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies.

          (a) The Master Servicer shall not take, or permit any Servicer (to the extent such action is prohibited under the applicable Servicing Agreement) to take, any action that would result in noncoverage under any applicable Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of such Master Servicer or Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. The Master Servicer shall use its best reasonable efforts to cause each Servicer (to the extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to keep in force and effect (to the extent that the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to maintain such insurance), primary mortgage insurance applicable to each Mortgage Loan (including any lender-paid Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable. The Master Servicer shall not, and shall not permit any Servicer (to the extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to, cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy that is in effect at the date of the initial issuance of the Mortgage Note and is required to be kept in force hereunder except in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable.

          (b) The Master Servicer agrees to cause each Servicer (to the extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to present, on behalf of the Trustee, the Trust and the Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies and, in this regard, to take such reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Pursuant to Section 4.01 and 4.02, any amounts collected by the Servicer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Master Servicer Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.03.

           Section 3.12 Trustee to Retain Possession of Certain Insurance Policies and Documents.

          The Trustee (or the Custodian, as directed by the Trustee), shall retain possession and custody of the originals (to the extent available) of any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies, or certificate of insurance if applicable, and any certificates of renewal as to the foregoing as may be issued from time to time as contemplated by this Agreement. Until all amounts distributable in respect of the Certificates have been distributed in full and the Master Servicer otherwise has fulfilled its obligations under this Agreement, the Trustee (or its Custodian, if any, as directed by the Trustee) shall also retain possession and custody of each Mortgage File in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee (or the Custodian, as directed by the Trustee), upon the execution or receipt thereof the originals of any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies, any certificates of renewal, and such other documents or instruments that constitute portions of the Mortgage File that come into the possession of the Master Servicer from time to time.

          Section 3.13 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall cause each Servicer (to the extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to foreclose upon, repossess or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of Mortgaged Properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments, all in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement.

          Section 3.14 Additional Compensation to the Master Servicer. Pursuant to Section 4.02(c), certain income and gain realized from any investment of funds in the Master Servicer Collection Account shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as additional compensation. Servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, if any, late payment charges, as collected, if any, or otherwise (but, unless otherwise specifically permitted in a Servicing Agreement, not including any Prepayment Penalty Amounts) shall be retained by the applicable Servicer, or the Master Servicer, and shall not be deposited in the related Servicer Account or Master Servicer Collection Account. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as provided in this Agreement. The amount of the aggregate compensation payable as set forth in this Section 3.14 plus the Master Servicing Fee due to the Master Servicer in respect of any Distribution Date shall be reduced in accordance with Section 6.07.

           Section 3.15 REO Property.

          (a) In the event the Trust (or the Trustee on its behalf) acquires ownership of any REO Property in respect of any related Mortgage Loan, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued to the Trust, or if required under applicable law, to the Trustee, or to its nominee, on behalf of the Trust. The Master Servicer shall, to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, cause the applicable Servicer to sell, any REO Property as expeditiously as possible (and in no event later than three years after acquisition) and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall cause the applicable Servicer to protect and conserve, such REO Property in the manner and to the extent required by the applicable Servicing Agreement, in accordance with the REMIC Provisions and in a manner that does not result in a tax on "net income from foreclosure property" or cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code.

          (b) The Master Servicer shall, to the extent required by the related Servicing Agreement, cause the applicable Servicer to deposit all funds collected and received in connection with the operation of any REO Property in the related Servicer Account.

          (c) The Master Servicer and the applicable Servicer, upon the final disposition of any REO Property, shall be entitled to reimbursement for any related unreimbursed Monthly Advances and other unreimbursed advances as well as any unpaid Servicing Fees from Liquidation Proceeds received in connection with the final disposition of such REO Property; provided, that any such unreimbursed Monthly Advances as well as any unpaid Servicing Fees may be reimbursed or paid, as the case may be, prior to final disposition, out of any net rental income or other net amounts derived from such REO Property.

This purchase option, if not exercised, shall not be thereafter reinstated unless the delinquency is cured and the Mortgage Loan thereafter again becomes 90 days or more delinquent or becomes an REO Property, in which case the option shall again become exercisable as of the first day of the related Calendar Quarter.

(b) (i) In addition, Xxxxxxxxx, in its capacity as the Mortgage Loan Seller, may, but is not required to, repurchase any Mortgage Loan as to which the Mortgagor has requested a Significant Modification and such Mortgagor has a satisfactory payment history under such Mortgage Loan and meets the credit standards of the Mortgage Loan Seller for the loan program selected (a "Significant Modification Loan"). A "Significant Modification" shall mean any modification to the interest rate of the greater of (a) 0.25% added or subtracted from the existing rate and (b) a change equal to the product of (1) 5% and (2) the annual existing interest rate thereon, which is not provided for in the related Mortgage Note. The purchase price for any such repurchase pursuant to this Section 3.21(b)(i) shall be the applicable Repurchase Price. In order to exercise its repurchase rights hereunder, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver to the Master Servicer and the Trustee a certificate identifying the Mortgage Loan to be repurchased and certifying that (i) such Mortgage Loan is a Significant Modification Loan, and (ii) that the Significant Modification Loan will be entered into on the date of such repurchase.

On the third Business Day prior to each Distribution Date, provided that it has received such list from Xxxxxxxxx, the Master Servicer shall prepare and provide to TMI a Converted Mortgage Loan Schedule and a Modified Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to such Due Period. No later than 1:00 PM Eastern Time on the second Business Day prior to each Distribution Date, TMI shall purchase each Converted Mortgage Loan and Modified Mortgage Loan, to the extent specified in a Converted Mortgage Loan Schedule or Modified Mortgage Loan Schedule delivered to it by the Master Servicer for such Distribution Date, at the applicable Repurchase Price for each such Converted Mortgage Loan or Modified Mortgage Loan, as applicable, and shall remit such Repurchase Price to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Master Servicer Collection Account.

          (c) If at any time Xxxxxxxxx or TMI, as applicable, remits to the Master Servicer a payment for deposit in the Master Servicer Collection Account covering the amount of the Repurchase Price for a Mortgage Loan of the type set forth in clauses (a) or (b) above, and Xxxxxxxxx or TMI, as applicable, provides to the Trustee a certification signed by a servicing or other responsible officer stating that the amount of such payment has been deposited in the Master Servicer Collection Account, then the Trustee shall execute the assignment of such Mortgage Loan at the request of Xxxxxxxxx or TMI, as applicable, without recourse to Xxxxxxxxx or TMI, as applicable, which shall succeed to all the Trust's and/or the Trustee's right, title and interest in and to such Mortgage Loan, and all security and documents relative thereto. Such assignment shall be an assignment outright and not for security. Xxxxxxxxx or TMI, as applicable, will thereupon own such Mortgage Loan, and all such security and documents, free of any further obligation to the Trust, the Trustee or the Certificateholders with respect thereto.

          Section 3.22 Instructions to the Trustee. In the event that the Trustee is required under a Servicing Agreement to give any waivers, consents or instructions to the related Servicer, if the Trustee reasonably believes that such actions (i) are not ministerial in nature, (ii) involve the waiver of any defaults by a Servicer, or (iii) pertain to the termination of a Servicer or the Servicing Agreement, the Trustee may seek written directions from the Holders of 51% of the Fractional Undivided Interests in the Class of Subordinate Certificates with the highest numerical designation then outstanding. In the absence of such instruction from the requisite applicable Certificateholders, the Trustee may seek such instruction from the Holders of 51% of the aggregate the Fractional Undivided Interests in all of the Certificates. If the Trustee does not receive any such requested instructions, the Trustee may refrain from giving any consent, waiver, instruction or direction to the related Servicer and shall not be liable for any losses or damages resulting from such failure to give such requested consents, waivers, instructions or directions.

Each Depository Participant shall only transfer interests in Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the Depository's normal procedures.

           (b) If (i)(A) the Seller advises the Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as Depository and (B) the Trustee or the Seller is unable to locate a qualified successor within 30 days or (ii) the Seller at its option advises the Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Depository, the Trustee shall request that the Depository notify all Certificate Owners of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of definitive, fully registered Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Trustee of the Certificates by the Depository, accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for registration, the Trustee shall issue the definitive Certificates. Neither the Seller nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected in relying on, such instructions.

           (c) The Trustee shall elect that each of REMIC I and REMIC II shall be treated as a REMIC under Section 860D of the Code. Any inconsistencies or ambiguities in this Agreement or in the administration of this Agreement shall be resolved in a manner that preserves the validity of such REMIC elections. The assets of REMIC I shall include the Mortgage Loans and all interest owing in respect of and principal due thereon, the Master Servicer Collection Account, the Distribution Account, any REO Property, and any proceeds of the foregoing. The REMIC I Regular Interests shall constitute the assets of REMIC II.

           REMIC I will be evidenced by (x) the Class I-a, Class I-m1, Class I-m2 and Class I-Q (the "REMIC I Regular Interests"), which are hereby designated as the "regular interests" in REMIC I and will be uncertificated and non-transferable and (y) the Class R-1 Certificate, which is hereby designated as the single "residual interest" in REMIC I (the REMIC I Regular Interests, together with the Class R-1 Certificate, the "REMIC I Certificates"). The REMIC I Regular Interests shall be recorded on the records of REMIC I as being issued to and held by the Trustee on behalf of REMIC II.

           Interest on the REMIC I Regular Interests that corresponds to interest on the Mortgage Loans that is allocable to payments of principal on the Certificates (the "Turbo Amount") will not be paid directly as principal to the REMIC I Regular Interests, but instead a portion of the interest otherwise payable with respect to the Class I-Q REMIC I Regular Interest which equals 0.01% of the Turbo Amount will be payable as a reduction of the principal balances of the Class I-a, Class I-m1, and Class I-m2 REMIC I Regular Interests in the same proportions that the Turbo Amount is allocated among the Class A, Class M-1 and Class M-2 Certificates, respectively, and will be accrued and added to principal on the Class I-Q REMIC I Regular Interest.

           Principal payments on the Mortgage Loans held by REMIC I shall be allocated 0.01% to the Class I-a, Class I-m1 and Class I-m2 REMIC I Regular Interests. The remaining 99.99% shall be allocated to Class I-Q REMIC I Regular Interest. The aggregate amount of principal allocated to Class I-a, Class I-m1 and Class I-m2 REMIC I Regular Interests shall be apportioned among such classes in the same proportions as principal is payable with respect to the Class A, Class M-1 and Class M-2 Certificates, respectively. Notwithstanding the above, principal payments on REMIC I Regular Interests that are attributable to an Excess Overcollateralization Amount shall be allocated to the Class I-Q REMIC I Regular Interests. Cash of $50 will be deposited into REMIC I and shall be paid out on the first Distribution Date to the Class R-1 Certificate.

           The REMIC I Certificates will have the following designations, initial principal balances, pass-through rates and allocations of interest:

                                                                     Pass-       Allocation       Corresponding

_______________

      (1)     The pass-through rate on this REMIC I Regular Interest shall at any time of determination equal the weighted average of the Net Mortgage Rates of the Mortgage Loans.

(2)      Except as provided in note (3) below, interest will be allocated among the REMIC I Regular Interests in the same proportion as interest is payable on the corresponding Classes of Certificates (other than the Class B-IO Certificate).

(3)      Any interest with respect to this REMIC I Regular Interest -- in excess of the product of (i) 10,000 times the weighted average coupon of the Class I-a, Class I-m1, Class I-m2 and Class I-Q REMIC I Regular Interests, where each of Class I-a, Class I-m1 and Class I-m2 REMIC I Regular Interests is first subject to a cap and floor equal to the lesser of (a) the Pass-Through Rates of the Class A, Class M-1 and Class M-2 Certificates, respectively, and (b) the weighted average of the Net Mortgage Rates of the Mortgage Loans, and the Class I-Q REMIC I Regular Interest is subject to a cap equal to 0%, and (ii) the principal balance of this REMIC I Regular Interest -- will be allocated to the Class B-IO Certificates. However, the Class B-IO Certificates shall be subordinated to the extent provided in Section 6.01.

(4)     On each Distribution Date, amounts, if any, remaining in REMIC I after payments of interest and principal, as designated above, will be distributed to the Class R-1 Certificate.

           (d) The Class A, Class M-1, Class M-2 and Class B-IO Certificates, are hereby designated as "regular interests" with respect to REMIC II (the "REMIC II Regular Interests") and the Class R-2 Certificate is hereby designated as the single "residual interest" with respect to REMIC II. On each Distribution Date, amounts, if any, remaining in REMIC II after payments of interest and principal as designated herein shall be distributed to the Class R-2 Certificate. The terms of the REMIC II Regular Interests are set out below. Cash of $50 will be deposited into REMIC II and shall be paid out on the first Distribution Date to the Class R-2 Certificate.

           The Classes of the Certificates shall have the following designations, initial principal or notional amounts and Pass-Through Rates:

                         Initial Principal
Designation              or Notional Amount              Pass-Through Rate

__________

           (1) The Class A Certificates will bear interest at a variable Pass-Through Rate equal to the Class A Pass-Through Rate.

           (2) The Class M-1 Certificates will bear interest at a variable Pass-Through Rate equal to the Class M-1 Pass-Through Rate.

           (3) The Class M-2 Certificates will bear interest at a variable Pass-Through Rate equal to the Class M-2 Pass-Through Rate.

           (4) The Class B-IO has a principal balance equal to the Initial Overcollateralization Amount and a notional balance initially equal to $1,060,891,769.76 and thereafter equal to the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the last day of the related Due Period.

           (5) Interest is as provided in Section 5.01(c) Note 3.

          Payments of Basis Risk Carry Forward Shortfall Amounts and payments of amounts under Yield Maintenance Agreements shall be deemed to be made to the holder of the Class B-IO Certificate, who will be the owner of such amounts for federal income tax purposes. The Class B-IO Certificateholder will be considered to pay such amounts to the Class A, Class M-1 and Class M-2 Certificates, in accordance with the priorities set forth in Sections 4.06 and 6.01, pursuant to a notional principal contract.

          In addition to the principal described above, the Class R-1 and Class R-2 Certificates shall each be entitled to all distributions from their respective REMICs, if any, that are not otherwise provided for herein.

           (e) Solely for purposes of Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the Treasury regulations, the Distribution Date immediately following the maturity date for the Mortgage Loan with the latest maturity date in the Trust as of the Start-up Day has been designated as the "latest possible maturity date" for the REMIC I Regular Interests and the Certificates.

           (f) With respect to each Distribution Date, each Class of Certificates (other than the Residual Certificates) shall accrue interest during the related Interest Accrual Period. With respect to each Distribution Date and each such Class of Certificates, interest shall be calculated, on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the related Interest Accrual Period, based upon the respective Pass-Through Rate set forth, or determined as provided, above and the Current Principal Amount of such Class applicable to such Distribution Date.

           (g) The Certificates shall be substantially in the forms set forth in Exhibits X-0, X-0, X-0 and A-4. On original issuance, the Trustee shall sign, countersign and shall deliver them at the direction of the Seller. Pending the preparation of definitive Certificates of any Class, the Trustee may sign and countersign temporary Certificates that are printed, lithographed or typewritten, in authorized denominations for Certificates of such Class, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Certificates in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers or authorized signatories executing such Certificates may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Certificates. If temporary Certificates are issued, the Seller will cause definitive Certificates to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Certificates, the temporary Certificates shall be exchangeable for definitive Certificates upon surrender of the temporary Certificates at the office of the Trustee, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Certificates, the Trustee shall sign and countersign and deliver in exchange therefor a like aggregate principal amount, in authorized denominations for such Class, of definitive Certificates of the same Class. Until so exchanged, such temporary Certificates shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits as definitive Certificates.

           (h) Each Class of Book-Entry Certificates will be registered as a single Certificate of such Class held by a nominee of the Depository or the DTC Custodian, and beneficial interests will be held by investors through the book-entry facilities of the Depository in minimum denominations of $25,000 and in each case increments of $1,000 in excess thereof, except that, in each case, one Certificate of each such Class may be issued in a different amount so that the sum of the denominations of all outstanding Certificates of such Class shall equal the Current Principal Amount of such Class on the Closing Date. On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall execute and countersign the Residual Certificates. The Private Certificates shall be issued in certificated, fully registered form in minimum denominations of $10,000,000 and increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof except that one Certificate may be issued in a different amount so that the sum of the denominations of all Class B-IO Certificates shall equal the Class B-IO Notional Amount on the Closing Date. Each Class of Residual Certificates shall be issued in certificated fully-registered form as a single Certificate in the denomination of $50. On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall execute and countersign in the case of (i) each Class of Offered Certificates, the Certificate in the entire Current Principal Amount of the respective Class, (ii) the Private Certificates, in permitted denominations that aggregate $1,060,891,769.76 and (iii) the Residual Certificates, each in the denomination of $50. The Certificates referred to in clause (i) shall be delivered by the Seller to the Depository or, pursuant to the Depository's instructions, shall be delivered by the Seller on behalf of the Depository to and deposited with the DTC Custodian. The Trustee shall sign the Certificates by facsimile or manual signature and countersign them by manual signature on behalf of the Trustee by one or more authorized signatories, each of whom shall be Responsible Officers of the Trustee or its agent. A Certificate bearing the manual and facsimile signatures of individuals who were the authorized signatories of the Trustee or its agent at the time of issuance shall bind the Trustee, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such positions prior to the delivery of such Certificate.

           (i) No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such Certificate the manually executed countersignature of the Trustee or its agent, and such countersignature upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly executed and delivered hereunder. All Certificates issued on the Closing Date shall be dated the Closing Date. All Certificates issued thereafter shall be dated the date of their countersignature.

           (j) The Closing Date is hereby designated as the "startup" day of each REMIC within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.

           (k) For federal income tax purposes, each REMIC shall have a tax year that is a calendar year and shall report income on an accrual basis.

           (l) The Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall cause each REMIC to timely elect to be treated as a REMIC under Section 860D of the Code. Any inconsistencies or ambiguities in this Agreement or in the administration of any Trust established hereby shall be resolved in a manner that preserves the validity of such elections.

           (m) The applicable Securities Legend shall be placed on the applicable Class or Classes of Certificates, whether upon original issuance or upon issuance of any other Certificate of any such Class in exchange therefor or upon transfer thereof.

           Section 5.02 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates. (a) The Trustee shall maintain at its Corporate Trust Office a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided.

           (b) Subject to Subsection 5.01(a) and, in the case of any Individual Certificate upon the satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at any office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose, the Trustee shall sign, countersign and shall deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, a new Certificate of a like Class and aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest, but bearing a different number.

           (c) By acceptance of an Individual Certificate, whether upon original issuance or subsequent transfer, each holder of such a Certificate acknowledges the restrictions on the transfer of such Certificate set forth in the Securities Legend and agrees that it will transfer such a Certificate only as provided herein. In addition to the provisions of Subsection 5.02(h), the following restrictions shall apply with respect to the transfer and registration of transfer of an Individual Certificate:

           (i) The Trustee shall register the transfer of an Individual Certificate if the requested transfer is being made to a transferee who has provided the Trustee with (x) a Rule 144A Certificate or (y) comparable evidence as to its QIB status and evidence as to its compliance with the applicable ERISA restrictions contained in the Securities Legend.

           (ii) The Trustee shall register the transfer of any Individual Certificate if (x) the transferor has advised the Trustee in writing that the Certificate is being transferred to an Institutional Accredited Investor; and (y) prior to the transfer the transferee furnishes to the Trustee an Investment Letter (and the Trustee shall be fully protected in so doing), provided that, if based upon an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the delivery of (x) and (y) above are not sufficient to confirm that the proposed transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable laws, the Trustee shall as a condition of the registration of any such transfer require the transferor to furnish such other certifications, legal opinions or other information prior to registering the transfer of an Individual Certificate as shall be set forth in such Opinion of Counsel.

           (iii) The Trustee shall register the transfer of any Individual Certificate without delivery of the documents required by sub-clauses (i) or (ii) above if such transfer is being made by Xxxxxxxxx or by any of its Affiliates, to Xxxxxxxxx or to another Affiliate of Xxxxxxxxx.

           (d) Reserved.

           (e) Reserved.

           (f) Reserved.

           (g) The applicable Securities Legend shall be placed on any Individual Certificate issued in exchange for or upon transfer of another Individual Certificate.

           (h) Subject to the restrictions on transfer and exchange set forth in this Section 5.02, the holder of any Individual Certificate may transfer or exchange the same in whole or in part (in an initial certificate balance equal to the minimum authorized denomination of $10,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof) by surrendering such Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office, or at the office of any transfer agent, together with an executed instrument of assignment and transfer satisfactory in form and substance to the Trustee in the case of transfer and a written request for exchange in the case of exchange. Following a proper request for transfer or exchange, the Trustee shall, within five Business Days of such request made at such Corporate Trust Office, sign, countersign and deliver at such Corporate Trust Office, to the transferee (in the case of transfer) or holder (in the case of exchange) or send by first class mail at the risk of the transferee (in the case of transfer) or holder (in the case of exchange) to such address as the transferee or holder, as applicable, may request, an Individual Certificate or Certificates, as the case may require, for a like aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest and in such authorized denomination or denominations as may be requested. The presentation for transfer or exchange of any Individual Certificate shall not be valid unless made at the Corporate Trust Office by the registered holder in person, or by a duly authorized attorney-in-fact.

           (i) At the option of the Certificateholders, Individual Certificates and Physical Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates of authorized denominations of a like Class and aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest, upon surrender of the Individual Certificates and Physical Certificates to be exchanged at any such office or agency; provided, however, that no Certificate may be exchanged for new Certificates unless the original Fractional Undivided Interest represented by each such new Certificate (i) is at least equal to the minimum authorized denomination or (ii) is acceptable to the Seller as indicated to the Trustee in writing. Whenever any such Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall sign and countersign and the Trustee shall deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

           (j) If the Trustee so requires, every Certificate presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, with a signature guarantee, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, duly executed by the holder thereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing.

           (k) No service charge shall be made for any transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

           (l) The Trustee shall cancel all Certificates surrendered for transfer or exchange but shall retain such Certificates in accordance with its standard retention policy or for such further time as is required by the record retention requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and thereafter may destroy such Certificates.

           Section 5.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. (a) If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee, or the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered to the Trustee such security or indemnity as it may require to save it harmless, and (iii) the Trustee has not received notice that such Certificate has been acquired by a third Person, the Trustee shall sign, countersign and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and Fractional Undivided Interest but in each case bearing a different number. The mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate shall thereupon be canceled of record by the Trustee and shall be of no further effect and evidence no rights.

           (b) Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 5.03, 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 duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 5.03 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

           Section 5.04 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Seller, the Trustee and any agent of the Seller or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 6.01 and for all other purposes whatsoever. Neither the Seller, the Trustee nor any agent of the Seller or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. No Certificate shall be deemed duly presented for a transfer effective on any Record Date unless the Certificate to be transferred is presented no later than the close of business on the third Business Day preceding such Record Date.

           Section 5.05 Transfer Restrictions on Residual Certificates. (a) Residual Certificates, or interests therein, may not be transferred without the prior express written consent of the Tax Matters Person and the Seller. As a prerequisite to such consent, the proposed transferee must provide the Tax Matters Person, the Seller and the Trustee with an affidavit that the proposed transferee is a Permitted Transferee (and, unless the Tax Matters Person and the Seller consent to the transfer to a person who is not a U.S. Person, an affidavit that it is a U.S. Person) as provided in Subsection 5.05(b).

           (b) No transfer, sale or other disposition of a Residual Certificate (including a beneficial interest therein) may be made unless, prior to the transfer, sale or other disposition of a Residual Certificate, the proposed transferee (including the initial purchasers thereof) delivers to the Tax Matters Person, the Trustee and the Seller an affidavit in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E stating, among other things, that as of the date of such transfer (i) such transferee is a Permitted Transferee and that (ii) such transferee is not acquiring such Residual Certificate for the account of any person who is not a Permitted Transferee. The Tax Matters Person shall not consent to a transfer of a Residual Certificate if it has actual knowledge that any statement made in the affidavit issued pursuant to the preceding sentence is not true. Notwithstanding any transfer, sale or other disposition of a Residual Certificate to any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee, such transfer, sale or other disposition shall be deemed to be of no legal force or effect whatsoever and such Person shall not be deemed to be a Holder of a Residual Certificate for any purpose hereunder, including, but not limited to, the receipt of distributions thereon. If any purported transfer shall be in violation of the provisions of this Subsection 5.05(b), then the prior Holder thereof shall, upon discovery that the transfer of such Residual Certificate was not in fact permitted by this Subsection 5.05(b), be restored to all rights as a Holder thereof retroactive to the date of the purported transfer. None of the Trustee, the Tax Matters Person or the Seller shall be under any liability to any Person for any registration or transfer of a Residual Certificate that is not permitted by this Subsection 5.05(b) or for making payments due on such Residual Certificate to the purported Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such purported Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the written affidavit referred to above was received with respect to such transfer, and the Tax Matters Person, the Trustee and the Seller, as applicable, had no knowledge that it was untrue. The prior Holder shall be entitled to recover from any purported Holder of a Residual Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted Transferee under this Subsection 5.05(b) at the time it became a Holder all payments made on such Residual Certificate. Each Holder of a Residual Certificate, by acceptance thereof, shall be deemed for all purposes to have consented to the provisions of this Subsection 5.05(b) and to any amendment of this Agreement deemed necessary (whether as a result of new legislation or otherwise) by counsel of the Tax Matters Person or the Seller to ensure that the Residual Certificates are not transferred to any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee and that any transfer of such Residual Certificates will not cause the imposition of a tax upon the Trust or cause any REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC.

           (c) Unless the Tax Matters Person shall have consented in writing (which consent may be withheld in the Tax Matters Person's sole discretion), the Residual Certificates (including a beneficial interest therein) may not be purchased by or transferred to any person who is not a United States Person.

           (d) By accepting a Residual Certificate, the purchaser thereof agrees to be a Tax Matters Person, and appoints the Securities Administrator to act as its agent with respect to all matters concerning the tax obligations of the Trust.

           Section 5.06 Restrictions on Transferability of Private Certificates. (a) No offer, sale, transfer or other disposition (including pledge) of any Private Certificate shall be made by any Holder thereof unless registered under the Securities Act, or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities or "Blue Sky" laws is available and the prospective transferee of such Certificate (other than a transfer by the Seller to Xxxxxxxxx or any of its Affiliates, or from Xxxxxxxxx or any of its Affiliates to another Affiliate of Xxxxxxxxx) signs and delivers to the Trustee an Investment Letter, if the transferee is an Institutional Accredited Investor, in the form set forth as Exhibit F-l hereto, or a Rule 144A Certificate, if the transferee is a QIB, in the form set forth as Exhibit F-2 hereto. In the case of a proposed transfer of a Private Certificate to a transferee other than a QIB, the Trustee may require an Opinion of Counsel that such transaction is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. The cost of such opinion shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Trust.

           (b) The Private Certificates shall each bear a Securities Legend.

           Section 5.07 ERISA Restrictions. (a) Subject to the provisions of subsection (b), no Residual Certificates or Private Certificates may be acquired directly or indirectly by, or on behalf of, an employee benefit plan or other retirement arrangement which is subject to Title I of ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code, unless (except in the case of a transfer by the Seller to Xxxxxxxxx or any of its Affiliates, or by Xxxxxxxxx or any of its Affiliates to another Affiliate of Xxxxxxxxx) in the case of the Class B-IO Certificates a certification is provided to the Trustee (upon which the Trustee is authorized to rely) to the effect that the proposed transfer and/or holding of such a Certificate and the servicing, management and operation of the Trust: (I) will not result in a prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code which is not covered under an individual or class prohibited transaction exemption including but not limited to Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Exemption ("PTE") 84-14 (Class Exemption for Plan Asset Transactions Determined by Independent Qualified Professional Asset Managers); PTE 91-38 (Class Exemption for Certain Transactions Involving Bank Collective Investment Funds); PTE 90-1 (Class Exemption for Certain Transactions Involving Insurance Company Pooled Separate Accounts), PTE 95-60 (Class Exemption for Certain Transactions Involving Insurance Company General Accounts), and PTCE 96-23 (Class Exemption for Plan Asset Transactions Determined by In-House Asset Managers and (II) will not subject the Seller, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee or any Servicer to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Agreement.

           Section 5.08 Rule 144A Information. For so long as any Certificates are outstanding and are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) of the Securities Act, (1) the Seller will provide or cause to be provided to any holder of such Certificates and any prospective purchaser thereof designated by such a holder, upon the request of such holder or prospective purchaser, the information required to be provided to such holder or prospective purchaser by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act; and (2) the Seller shall update such information from time to time in order to prevent such information from becoming false and misleading and will take such other actions as are necessary to ensure that the safe harbor exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under Rule 144A is and will be available for resales of such Certificates conducted in accordance with Rule 144A.

           Section 5.09 Optional Purchase of Certificates.

           (a) All but not less than all of the Class A, Class M-1, Class M-2, Class R-1 and Class R-2 Certificates (but not the Class B-IO Certificates) are subject to purchase by Xxxxxxxxx, at its option, on any Distribution Date on or after the Optional Securities Purchase Date from the then Certificateholders thereof; provided, however, that Xxxxxxxxx may appoint a designee to purchase one or both of the Residual Certificates.

          The foregoing notice shall be given by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of Xxxxxxxxx. Failure to give notice of such purchase, or any defect therein, to any Holder of any Certificate shall not impair or affect the validity of the purchase of any other Certificate.

           (d) The Certificates shall, following notice as required by Section 5.09(c), be purchased on the applicable Distribution Date by Xxxxxxxxx at the price specified in Section 5.09(a), and (unless Xxxxxxxxx shall default in the payment of such amount) no interest shall accrue on such amount for any period after the date to which accrued interest is calculated for purposes of calculating such amount.

           (e) Subsequent to the purchase of the Certificates following exercise of the Optional Securities Purchase Right, Xxxxxxxxx shall be the sole Holder of the Class A, Class M-1 and Class M-2 Certificates and it shall either be the sole Holder of the Class R-1 and Class R-2 Certificates or may designate a Person which meets the requirements of this Agreement to become the Holder thereof.

           (i) The Master Servicer fails to cause to be deposited in the Master Servicer Collection Account or the Distribution Account, as applicable, any amount so required to be deposited pursuant to this Agreement, and such failure continues unremedied for a period of three Business Days after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer; or

           (ii) The Master Servicer fails to observe or perform in any material respect any other material covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement to be performed by it, which covenants and agreements materially affect the rights of Certificateholders, and such failure continues unremedied for a period of 60 days (or, in the case of a breach of its obligation to provide a Master Servicer Certification pursuant to Section 3.18, 30 days) after the date on which written notice of such failure, properly requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee or to the Master Servicer and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than 25% of the Trust; or

           (iii) There is entered against the Master Servicer a decree or order by a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a conservator, receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order is unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days, or an involuntary case is commenced against the Master Servicer under any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute and the petition is not dismissed within 60 days after the commencement of the case; or

           (iv) The Master Servicer consents to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Master Servicer or substantially all of its property; or the Master Servicer admits in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, files a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspends payment of its obligations; or

           (v) The Master Servicer assigns or delegates its duties or rights under this Agreement in contravention of the provisions permitting such assignment or delegation under Sections 7.05.

          In each and every such case, so long as such Event of Default with respect to the Master Servicer shall not have been remedied, either the Trustee or the Holders of Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than 51% of the principal of the Trust, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer (and to the Trustee if given by such Certificateholders), with a copy to each Rating Agency, and with the consent of Xxxxxxxxx (not to be unreasonably withheld), may terminate all of the rights and obligations (but not the liabilities) of the Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and/or the REO Property serviced by the Master Servicer and the proceeds thereof. Upon the receipt by the Master Servicer of the written notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans, REO Property or under any other related agreements (but only to the extent that such other agreements relate to the Mortgage Loans or related REO Property) shall, subject to Section 8.02, automatically and without further action pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to this Section 8.01; and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Master Servicer as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The Master Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer's rights and obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Trustee of (i) the property and amounts which are then or should be part of the Trust or which thereafter become part of the Trust; and (ii) originals or copies of all documents of the Master Servicer reasonably requested by the Trustee to enable it to assume the Master Servicer's duties thereunder. In addition to any other amounts which are then, or, notwithstanding the termination of its activities under this Agreement, may become payable to the Master Servicer under this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive, out of any amount received on account of a Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, that portion of such payments which it would have received as reimbursement under this Agreement if notice of termination had not been given. The termination of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer shall not affect any obligations incurred by the Master Servicer prior to such termination.

           Section 8.02 Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor. (a) Upon the receipt by the Master Servicer of a notice of termination pursuant to Section 8.01 or an Opinion of Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 7.05 to the effect that the Master Servicer is legally unable to act or to delegate its duties to a Person which is legally able to act, the Trustee shall automatically become the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall thereafter be subject to all the responsibilities, duties, liabilities and limitations on liabilities relating thereto placed on the Master Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever with respect to any liability (other than Monthly Advances deemed recoverable and not previously made by the Master Servicer, which shall be made by the Trustee in its place and stead) incurred by the Master Servicer at or prior to the time of termination. As compensation therefor, but subject to Section 7.06, the Trustee shall be entitled to all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans which the Master Servicer would have been entitled to retain if the Master Servicer had continued to act hereunder, except for those amounts due the Master Servicer as reimbursement permitted under this Agreement for advances previously made or expenses previously incurred. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling so to act, or shall, if it is legally unable so to act, appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established housing and home finance institution which is a Xxxxxx Xxx- or Xxxxxxx Mac-approved servicer, and with respect to a successor to the Master Servicer only, having a net worth of not less than $10,000,000, as the successor to the Master Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided, that the Trustee shall obtain a letter from each Rating Agency that the ratings, if any, on each of the Certificates will not be lowered as a result of the selection of the successor to the Master Servicer and such successor Master Servicer shall be reasonably acceptable to Xxxxxxxxx in the event that Xxxxxxxxx does not choose to become the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 8.02(b). Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer hereunder, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on the Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that the provisions of Section 7.06 shall apply, no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Trustee under this Subsection 8.02(a), and that such successor shall undertake and assume the obligations of the Trustee to pay compensation to any third Person acting as an agent or independent contractor in the performance of master servicing responsibilities hereunder. The Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.

           (b) If the Trustee shall succeed to any duties of the Master Servicer respecting the Mortgage Loans as provided herein, it shall do so in a separate capacity and not in its capacity as Trustee and, accordingly, the provisions of Article IX shall be inapplicable to the Trustee in its duties as the successor to the Master Servicer in the servicing of the Mortgage Loans (although such provisions shall continue to apply to the Trustee in its capacity as Trustee); the provisions of Article VII, however, shall apply to it in its capacity as successor master servicer. In the event that the Trustee shall not succeed to the duties of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 7.06 hereof, Xxxxxxxxx shall have the right, but not the obligation, to be appointed successor master servicer hereunder.

           Section 8.03 Notification to Certificateholders. Upon any termination or appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate Register and to each Rating Agency.

           Section 8.04 Waiver of Defaults. The Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Certificateholders, within 60 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured, notice of each such Event of Default hereunder known to the Trustee. The Holders of Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than 51% of the Trust may, on behalf of all Certificateholders, waive any default by the Master Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and the consequences thereof, except a default in the making of or the causing to be made any required distribution on the Certificates. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall be deemed to cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been timely remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived. The Trustee shall give notice of any such waiver to each Rating Agency.

           Section 8.05 List of Certificateholders. Upon written request of three or more Certificateholders of record, for purposes of communicating with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Agreement, the Trustee will afford such Certificateholders access during business hours to the most recent list of Certificateholders held by the Trustee.

ARTICLE IX

Concerning the Trustee and the Securities Administrator

           Section 9.01 Duties of Trustee and Securities Administrator. (a) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default (of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge) and after the curing or waiver of all Events of Default which may have occurred, and the Securities Administrator each undertake to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement as duties of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator, respectively. If an Event of Default has occurred (of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge) and has not been cured or waived, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and subject to Section 8.02(b) use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs, unless the Trustee is acting as successor Master Servicer, in which case it shall use the same degree of care and skill as the Master Servicer hereunder.

           (b) Upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments which are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator, respectively, shall examine them to determine whether they are in the form required by this Agreement; provided, however, that neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be responsible for the accuracy or content of any resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument furnished by the Master Servicer, any Servicer or any other party pursuant to this Agreement; provided, further, that neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be responsible for the accuracy or verification of any calculation provided to it pursuant to this Agreement.

           (c) On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall make monthly distributions and the final distribution to the Certificateholders from funds in the Distribution Account as provided in Sections 6.01 and 10.01 herein based on the report of the Securities Administrator. The Securities Administrator shall file reports with the Securities Exchange Commission as specified in and in accordance with Section 3.18.

           (d) No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee or the Securities Administrator from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct; provided, however, that:

           (i) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default (of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge), and after the curing or waiver of all such Events of Default which may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable except for the performance of their respective duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee or the Securities Administrator and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement;

           (ii) Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable in its individual capacity or in any other capacity for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee or an officer of the Securities Administrator, respectively, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

           (iii) Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the directions of the Holders of Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than 25% of the Trust, if such action or non-action relates to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, or exercising any trust or other power conferred upon the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, under this Agreement;

           (iv) The Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee's Corporate Trust Office shall have actual knowledge thereof. In the absence of such notice, the Trustee may conclusively assume there is no such default or Event of Default;

           (v) The Trustee shall not in any way be liable by reason of any insufficiency in any Account held by or in the name of Trustee unless it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Trustee's gross negligence or willful misconduct was the primary cause of such insufficiency (except to the extent that the Trustee is obligor and has defaulted thereon);

           (vi) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Trustee or the Securities Administrator be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action; and

           (vii) Neither of the Securities Administrator nor the Trustee shall be responsible for the acts or omissions of the other, it being understood that this Agreement shall not be construed to render them partners, joint venturers or agents of one another.

          Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require the Trustee or the Securities Administrator to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of the Master Servicer under the Servicing Agreements, except during such time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Master Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

           (e) All funds received by the Trustee and required to be deposited in the Distribution Account pursuant to this Agreement will be promptly so deposited by the Trustee.

           (f) Except for those actions that the Trustee or the Securities Administrator is required to take hereunder, neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall have any obligation or liability to take any action or to refrain from taking any action hereunder in the absence of written direction as provided hereunder.

           (g) The Trustee shall remit to the applicable Servicer or the Master Servicer if the identity of the applicable Servicer cannot be ascertained, upon receipt, any complaint, claim, demand, notice or other document relating to a Mortgage Loan (i) which is delivered to the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, (ii) of which a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge, and (iii) which contains information sufficient to permit the Trustee to make a determination that the real property to which such document relates is Mortgaged Property. The Trustee shall not be liable for any damages or losses resulting from the failure to remit such documentation unless the foregoing conditions had been met.

           (h) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Trustee shall have no duty (a) to see to any recording, filing, or depositing of this Agreement or any agreement or assignment referred to herein or any financing statement evidencing a security interest, or to see to the maintenance of any such recording or filing or depositing or to any re-recording, re-filing or re-depositing of any thereof (except, as set forth in Section 3.20, with respect to the filing of continuation statements with respect to the UCC-1 financing statements filed on behalf of the Trust in office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, on or around the Closing Date, naming each of the Seller and the Mortgage Loan Seller as the respective "Debtor" and covering the property of the Trust as set forth in Section 2.01(a)), (b) to obtain any Insurance Policy with respect to a Mortgage Loan, (c) to see to the payment or discharge of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge or any lien or encumbrance of any kind owing with respect to, assessed or levied against, any part of the Trust (except to the extent that a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge of such owed amount and the Trustee reasonably could expect to be reimbursed by the Trust pursuant to Section 9.05 for all such expenditures), or (d) to confirm or verify the contents of any reports or certificates of the Master Servicer, any Servicer, or any other party delivered to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement believed by the Trustee to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

           Section 9.02 Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee and the Securities Administrator. Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01:

           (i) The Trustee and the Securities Administrator may request and rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting in reliance on any resolution, certificate of a Seller, Master Servicer or Servicer, Officer's Certificate, Opinion of Counsel, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties and the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall have no responsibility to ascertain or confirm the genuineness of any signature of any such party of parties;

Nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee's Corporate Trust Office has actual knowledge (which has not been cured or waived), subject to Section 8.02(b), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs;

           (iv) Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable in its individual capacity for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

           (v) Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by Holders of Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than 25% of the Trust and provided that the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, reasonably assured to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Agreement. The Trustee or the Securities Administrator may require indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, against such expense, cost or liability as a condition to taking any such action. The reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by the Certificateholders requesting the investigation;

           (vi) The Trustee and the Securities Administrator may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or through Affiliates, agents, custodians, accountants or attorneys.

           (vii) Should the Trustee or the Securities Administrator deem the nature of any action required on its part to be unclear, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, may require prior to such action that it be provided by the Seller with reasonable further instructions;

           (viii) The right of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator to perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty, and neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be accountable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of any such act;

           (ix) Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be required to give any bond or surety with respect to the execution of the trust created hereby or the powers granted hereunder, except as provided in Subsection 9.07; and

           Section 9.03 Trustee and Securities Administrator Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans. The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the signature and countersignature of the Trustee on the Certificates) shall be taken as the statements of the Seller or Xxxxxxxxx, and neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall have any responsibility for their correctness. Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator makes any representation as to the validity or sufficiency of the Certificates (other than the signature and countersignature of the Trustee on the Certificates) or of any Mortgage Loan except as expressly provided in Sections 2.02 and 2.04 hereof; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not relieve the Trustee of the obligation to review the Mortgage Files pursuant to Sections 2.02 and 2.04. The Trustee's signature and countersignature (or countersignature of its agent) on the Certificates shall be solely in its capacity as Trustee and shall not constitute the Certificates an obligation of the Trustee in any other capacity. Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be accountable for the use or application by the Seller of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.05, neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be responsible for the legality or validity of this Agreement or any document or instrument relating to this Agreement, the validity of the execution of this Agreement or of any supplement hereto or instrument of further assurance, or the validity, priority, perfection or sufficiency of the security for the Certificates issued hereunder or intended to be issued hereunder. Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall at any time have any responsibility or liability for or with respect to the legality, validity and enforceability of any Mortgage or any Mortgage Loan, or the perfection and priority of any Mortgage or the maintenance of any such perfection and priority, or for or with respect to the sufficiency of the Trust or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed to Certificateholders, under this Agreement. Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall have any responsibility for filing any financing or continuation statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien granted to it hereunder or to record this Agreement other than any continuation statements filed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.20.

           Section 9.04 Trustee, Custodian, Delaware Trustee, Master Servicer and Securities Administrator May Own Certificates. The Trustee, the Custodian, the Delaware Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator in their respective individual capacities, or in any capacity other than as Trustee, Custodian, Delaware Trustee, Master Servicer or Securities Administrator hereunder, may become the owner or pledgee of any Certificates with the same rights they would have if they were not Trustee, Custodian, Delaware Trustee, Master Servicer or Securities Administrator, as applicable, and may otherwise deal with the parties hereto.

           Section 9.05 Trustee's, Delaware Trustee's and Securities Administrator's Fees and Expenses. As compensation for its services hereunder, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive the Trustee Fee. The Delaware Trustee shall be compensated by the Trustee for its services hereunder. The Securities Administrator shall be compensated by the Master Servicer for its services hereunder. In addition, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and the Securities Administrator will be entitled to recover from the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 4.05(a) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances and the expenses of the Trustee (including for such purpose, any fees and expenses relating to its capacity as Custodian hereunder to the extent not paid by Xxxxxxxxx), the Delaware Trustee and the Securities Administrator, respectively, including without limitation, in connection with any Event of Default, any breach of this Agreement or any claim or legal action (including any pending or threatened claim or legal action) incurred or made by the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, in the administration of the trusts hereunder (including the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of its counsel) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or intentional misconduct or which is specifically designated herein as the responsibility of the Seller, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Master Servicer, the Certificateholders or the Trust hereunder. If funds in the Master Servicer Collection Account and/or the Distribution Account, as applicable, are insufficient therefor, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Custodian and the Securities Administrator shall recover such expenses from future collections on the Mortgage Loans or as otherwise agreed by the Certificateholders. Such compensation and reimbursement obligation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust.

           Section 9.06 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee, Securities Administrator and Delaware Trustee. The Trustee and any successor Trustee and the Securities Administrator and any successor Securities Administrator shall during the entire duration of this Agreement be a state bank or trust company or a national banking association organized and doing business under the laws of such state or the United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus and undivided profits of at least $40,000,000 or, in the case of a successor Trustee, $50,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and, in the case of the Trustee, rated "Baa2" or higher by each Rating Agency with respect to any outstanding long-term unsecured unsubordinated debt, and, in the case of a successor Trustee or successor Securities Administrator other than pursuant to Section 9.10, rated in one of the two highest long-term debt categories of, or otherwise acceptable to, each Rating Agency. If the Trustee publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 9.06 the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its total equity capital (combined capital and surplus) as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.06, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 9.08.

All such insurance shall be in amounts, with standard coverage and subject to deductibles, as are customary for insurance typically maintained by banks or their affiliates which act as custodians for investor-owned mortgage pools. A certificate of an officer of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator as to the Trustee's or the Securities Administrator's, respectively, compliance with this Section 9.07 shall be furnished to any Certificateholder upon reasonable written request.

           Section 9.08 Resignation and Removal of the Trustee and Securities Administrator. (a) The Trustee and the Securities Administrator may at any time resign and be discharged from the Trust hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Seller and the Master Servicer, with a copy to each Rating Agency.

If no successor Trustee or Securities Administrator shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee or Securities Administrator may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or Securities Administrator.

           (b) If at any time the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.06 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Seller or if at any time the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Seller shall promptly remove the Trustee, or shall be entitled to remove the Securities Administrator, as applicable, and appoint a successor Trustee or Securities Administrator, as applicable, by written instrument, in triplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to each of the Trustee or Securities Administrator, as applicable, so removed, the successor Trustee or Securities Administrator, as applicable.

           (d) No resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator and appointment of a successor Trustee or Securities Administrator pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 9.08 shall become effective except upon appointment of and acceptance of such appointment by the successor Trustee or Securities Administrator as provided in Section 9.09.

           (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that the Master Servicer resigns or is removed as Master Servicer hereunder, the Securities Administrator shall have the right to resign immediately as Securities Administrator by giving written notice to the Seller and the Trustee, with a copy to each Rating Agency.

           Section 9.09 Successor Trustee and Successor Securities Administrator. (a) Any successor Trustee or Securities Administrator appointed as provided in Section 9.08 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Seller and to its predecessor Trustee or Securities Administrator an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder. The resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee or Securities Administrator shall then become effective and such successor Trustee or Securities Administrator, 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 Securities Administrator herein. The predecessor Trustee or Securities Administrator shall after payment of its outstanding fees and expenses promptly deliver to the successor Trustee or Securities Administrator, as applicable, all assets and records of the Trust held by it hereunder, and the Seller and the predecessor Trustee or Securities Administrator, as applicable, shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Trustee or Securities Administrator, as applicable, all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

           (b) No successor Trustee or Securities Administrator shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 9.09 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee or Securities Administrator shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 9.06.

           (c) Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee or Securities Administrator as provided in this Section 9.09, the successor Trustee or Securities Administrator shall mail notice of the succession of such Trustee or Securities Administrator hereunder to all Certificateholders at their addresses as shown in the Certificate Register and to each Rating Agency. The Trust shall pay the cost of any mailing by the successor Trustee or Securities Administrator.

           Section 9.10 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee or Securities Administrator. Any person into which the Trustee or the Securities Administrator may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any state bank or trust company or national banking association resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, shall be a party, or any state bank or trust company or national banking association succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, shall be the successor of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, hereunder, provided such state bank or trust company or national banking association shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 9.06. Such succession shall be valid 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 9.11 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee. (a) Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, and in addition to the appointment of the Delaware Trustee pursuant to Section 1A.03 hereof, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust or property constituting the same may at the time be located, the Seller and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee and the Seller to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 9.11, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Seller and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable.

           (b) If the Seller shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a written request so to do, the Trustee shall have the power to make such appointment without the Seller.

           (c) No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor Trustee under Section 9.06 hereunder and no notice to Certificateholders of the appointment of co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under Section 9.08 hereof.

           (d) In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee pursuant to this Section 9.11, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee and required to be conferred on such co-trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Master Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction of the Trustee.

           (e) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article IX. 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.

           (f) To the extent not prohibited by law, any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, request the Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to do any lawful act under or with respect to this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor Trustee.

           (g) No trustee under this Agreement shall be liable personally or otherwise by reason of any act or omission of another trustee under this Agreement. The Seller and the Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

           Section 9.12 Federal Information Returns and Reports to Certificateholders; REMIC Administration. (a) For federal income tax purposes, the taxable year of each of REMIC I and REMIC II shall be a calendar year and the Securities Administrator shall maintain or cause the maintenance of the books of each such REMIC on the accrual method of accounting.

           (b) The Securities Administrator shall prepare and file or cause to be filed with the Internal Revenue Service, and the Trustee shall sign, Federal tax information returns or elections required to be made hereunder with respect to each of REMIC I and REMIC II, the Trust, if applicable, and the Certificates containing such information and at the times and in the manner as may be required by the Code or applicable Treasury regulations, and shall furnish to each Holder of Certificates at any time during the calendar year for which such returns or reports are made such statements or information at the times and in the manner as may be required thereby, including, without limitation, reports relating to interest, original issue discount and market discount or premium (using a constant prepayment assumption of 30% CPR). The Securities Administrator will apply for an Employee Identification Number from the IRS under Form SS-4 or any other acceptable method for all tax entities. In connection with the foregoing, the Securities Administrator shall timely prepare and file, and the Trustee shall sign, IRS Form 8811, which shall provide the name and address of the person who can be contacted to obtain information required to be reported to the holders of regular interests in each of REMIC I and REMIC II (the "REMIC Reporting Agent"). The Trustee shall make elections to treat each of REMIC I and REMIC II as a REMIC (which elections shall apply to the taxable period ending December 31, 2003 and each calendar year thereafter) in such manner as the Code or applicable Treasury regulations may prescribe, and as described by the Securities Administrator. The Trustee shall sign all tax information returns filed pursuant to this Section and any other returns as may be required by the Code. The Holder of the Class R-1 Certificate is hereby designated as the "Tax Matters Person" (within the meaning of Treas. Reg.ss.ss.1.860F-4(d)) for REMIC I, and the Holder of the Class R-2 Certificate is hereby designated as the "Tax Matters Person" for REMIC II. The Securities Administrator is hereby designated and appointed as the agent of each such Tax Matters Person. Any Holder of a Residual Certificate will by acceptance thereof appoint the Securities Administrator as agent and attorney-in-fact for the purpose of acting as Tax Matters Person for each of REMIC I and REMIC II during such time as the Securities Administrator does not own any such Residual Certificate. In the event that the Code or applicable Treasury regulations prohibit the Trustee from signing tax or information returns or other statements, or the Securities Administrator from acting as agent for the Tax Matters Person, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall take whatever action that in its sole good faith judgment is necessary for the proper filing of such information returns or for the provision of a tax matters person, including designation of the Holder of a Residual Certificate to sign such returns or act as tax matters person. Each Holder of a Residual Certificate shall be bound by this Section.

           (c) The Securities Administrator shall provide upon request and receipt of reasonable compensation, such information as required in Section 860D(a)(6)(B) of the Code to the Internal Revenue Service, to any Person purporting to transfer a Residual Certificate to a Person other than a transferee permitted by Section 5.05(b), and to any regulated investment company, real estate investment trust, common trust fund, partnership, trust, estate, organization described in Section 1381 of the Code, or nominee holding an interest in a pass-through entity described in Section 860E(e)(6) of the Code, any record holder of which is not a transferee permitted by Section 5.05(b) (or which is deemed by statute to be an entity with a disqualified member).

           (d) The Securities Administrator shall prepare and file or cause to be filed, and the Trustee shall sign, any state income tax returns required under Applicable State Law with respect to each of REMIC I and REMIC II or the Trust.

           (e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall comply with all federal withholding requirements respecting payments to Certificateholders of interest or original issue discount on the Mortgage Loans, that the Trustee or the Securities Administrator reasonably believes are applicable under the Code. The consent of Certificateholders shall not be required for such withholding. In the event the Trustee or the Securities Administrator withholds any amount from interest or original issue discount payments or advances thereof to any Certificateholder pursuant to federal withholding requirements, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall, together with its monthly report to such Certificateholders, indicate such amount withheld.

           (f) The Trustee and the Securities Administrator agree to indemnify the Trust and the Seller for any taxes and costs including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys fees imposed on or incurred by the Trust, the Seller or the Master Servicer, as a result of a breach of the Trustee's covenants and the Securities Administrator's covenants, respectively, set forth in this Section 9.12; provided, however, such liability and obligation to indemnify in this paragraph shall not be joint and several and neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable or be obligated to indemnify the Trust for the failure by the other to perform any duty under this Agreement or the breach by the other of any covenant in this Agreement.

           Section 10.01 Termination Upon Repurchase by Xxxxxxxxx or its Designee or Liquidation of the Mortgage Loans.

           (a) Subject to Section 10.02, the respective obligations and responsibilities of the Seller, Xxxxxxxxx, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator created hereby, other than the obligation of the Trustee to make payments to Certificateholders as hereinafter set forth shall terminate upon:

           (i) the repurchase by Xxxxxxxxx, in its capacity as the Servicer of a substantial portion of the Mortgage Loans, or the Seller (as the case may be pursuant to Section 10.01(c) below) of all Mortgage Loans and all related REO Property remaining in the Trust at a price equal to (I) the sum of (a) 100% of the Scheduled Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan (other than a Mortgage Loan related to REO Property) as of the date of repurchase, together with interest at the applicable Mortgage Rate accrued but unpaid to, but not including, the first day of the month of repurchase, (b) the appraised value of any related REO Property, together with interest at the applicable Mortgage Rate accrued on that balance but unpaid to, but not including, the first day of the month of repurchase, such appraisal to be calculated by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by Xxxxxxxxx or the Seller, as applicable, and the Trustee, at the expense of Xxxxxxxxx or the Seller, as applicable, (c) any unpaid Master Servicing Fee, Trustee Fee, Delaware Trustee Fee or Servicing Fee relating to such Mortgage Loans (to the extent that accrued interest paid by Xxxxxxxxx at the related Mortgage Rate for each such Mortgage Loan for the immediately preceding Due Period is less than interest thereon at the Aggregate Expense Rate for such Due Period) and (d) any Monthly Advances, advances and other amounts then due and owing to the Master Servicer, any Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee under this Agreement minus (II) any Servicing Fee, Monthly Advances or advances by Xxxxxxxxx, as Servicer relating to any such Mortgage Loans;

           (ii) the later of the making of the final payment or other liquidation, or any advance with respect thereto, of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust or the disposition of all property acquired with respect to any Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that in the event that an advance has been made, but not yet recovered, at the time of such termination, the Person having made such advance shall be entitled to receive, notwithstanding such termination, any payments received subsequent thereto with respect to which such advance was made; or

           (iii) the payment to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to this Agreement.

           (b) [Reserved];

           (c) (i) The right of Xxxxxxxxx to repurchase all the Mortgage Loans pursuant to Subsection 10.01(a)(i) above shall be exercisable only if the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of any such repurchase is less than 10% of the Cut-off Date Balance; and (ii) the right of the Seller to repurchase all the Mortgage Loans pursuant to Subsection 10.01(a)(i) above shall be exercisable only if the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, based upon an Opinion of Counsel (to be obtained at the expense of the Seller), has determined that the REMIC status of the REMIC I or REMIC II has been lost or that a substantial risk exists that such REMIC status will be lost for the then-current taxable year. At any time thereafter, in the case of (ii) above, the Securities Administrator, as agent of the Tax Matters Persons may elect to terminate either or both of REMIC I and/or REMIC II at any time, and upon such election the Seller shall repurchase all the Mortgage Loans.

           (d) The Trustee shall give notice of any termination to the Certificateholders, with a copy to the Master Servicer, the Delaware Trustee, the Custodian, the Seller, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Securities Administrator and each Rating Agency, upon which the Certificateholders shall surrender their Certificates to the Trustee for payment of the final distribution and cancellation. Such notice shall be given by letter, mailed not earlier than the 15th day and not later than the 25th day of the month next preceding the month of such final distribution, and shall specify (i) the Distribution Date upon which final payment of the Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Trustee therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Trustee therein specified.

           If the option of Xxxxxxxxx or the Seller, as applicable, to repurchase or cause the repurchase of all the Mortgage Loans under Subsection 10.01 (a)(i) above is exercised, Xxxxxxxxx or the Seller, as applicable, shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account, by the Business Day prior to the applicable Distribution Date, an amount equal to the repurchase price for the Mortgage Loans being purchased by it and all property acquired with respect to such Mortgage Loans remaining in REMIC I and REMIC II. Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates by the Certificateholders, the Trustee shall distribute to the Certificateholders an amount determined as follows: with respect to each Certificate (other than the Class B-IO Certificates and the Class R Certificates), the outstanding Current Principal Amount, plus with respect to each Certificate (other than the Class B-IO Certificates and the Class R Certificates), one month's interest thereon at the applicable Pass-Through Rate; with respect to the Class B-IO Certificates, an amount equal to the Class B-IO Distribution Amount; and with respect to the Class R-1 and Class R-2 Certificates, respectively, the amounts remaining in REMIC I and REMIC II.

           (e) Upon deposit of the required repurchase price and following such final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall release promptly to Xxxxxxxxx, or its designee, the Mortgage Files for the remaining applicable Mortgage Loans, and the Accounts with respect thereto shall terminate, subject to the Trustee's obligation to hold any amounts payable to Certificateholders in trust without interest pending final distributions pursuant to Subsection 10.01(g).

           (f) In the event that this Agreement is terminated by reason of the payment or liquidation of all Mortgage Loans or the disposition of all property acquired with respect to all Mortgage Loans under Subsection 10.01(a)(ii) above, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account all distributable amounts remaining in the Master Servicer Collection Account. Upon the presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Trustee shall distribute to the remaining Certificateholders, in accordance with their respective interests, all distributable amounts remaining in the Distribution Account. Upon deposit by the Master Servicer of such distributable amounts, and following such final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall release promptly to Xxxxxxxxx or the Seller, or its designee, as applicable, the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans, and the Master Servicer Collection Account and the Distribution Account shall terminate, subject to the Trustee's obligation to hold any amounts payable to the Certificateholders in trust without interest pending final distributions pursuant to Subsection 10.01(g).

           (g) If not all of the Certificateholders shall surrender their Certificates for cancellation within six 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 six months after the second notice, not all the Certificates shall have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take appropriate steps, or appoint any agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets which remain subject to this Agreement.

           (h) Upon the termination or liquidation of the REMICs, the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall file a certificate of cancellation with the Delaware Secretary of State in accordance with Section 3810(d) of the Delaware Statutory Trust Statute, and the Trust's existence shall be terminated.

           Section 10.02 Additional Termination Requirements. (a) If the option of Xxxxxxxxx or the Seller, as applicable, to repurchase all the Mortgage Loans under Subsection 10.01(a)(i) above is exercised, the Trust and each of REMIC I and REMIC II shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements, unless the Securities Administrator and the Trustee have been furnished with an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the Seller or Xxxxxxxxx, whichever is repurchasing the Mortgage Loans) to the effect that the failure of the Trust to comply with the requirements of this Section 10.02 will not (i) result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" as defined in Section 860F of the Code on each of REMIC I and REMIC II or (ii) cause any REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Regular Certificates are outstanding:

           (i) within 90 days prior to the final Distribution Date, the Seller or Xxxxxxxxx, whichever is purchasing the Mortgage Loans, shall prepare, and the Trustee and the Securities Administrator (as attorney-in-fact on behalf of the Holders of the Residual Certificates pursuant to Section 10.02(b)), shall adopt a plan of complete liquidation of REMIC I and REMIC II in the case of a termination under Subsection 10.01(a)(i), provided to it by the Seller or Xxxxxxxxx, as applicable, meeting the requirements of a "qualified liquidation" under Section 860F of the Code and any regulations thereunder, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Securities Administrator and the Trustee, at the expense of Xxxxxxxxx or the Seller, whichever is repurchasing the Mortgage Loans; and

           (ii) Xxxxxxxxx or the Seller, as applicable, shall notify the Securities Administrator and the Trustee in writing at the commencement of such 90-day liquidation period and, at or prior to the time of making the final payment on the Certificates, the Trustee shall sell or otherwise dispose of all of the remaining assets of the Trust in accordance with the terms hereof; and REMIC I and REMIC II shall terminate at such time.

           (b) By their acceptance of the Residual Certificates, the Holders thereof hereby (i) agree to adopt such a plan of complete liquidation of REMIC I and REMIC II upon the written request of the Seller or Xxxxxxxxx, as applicable, and to take such action in connection therewith as may be reasonably requested by the Seller or Xxxxxxxxx, as applicable, and (ii) appoint the Securities Administrator as their attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution, for purposes of adopting such a plan of complete liquidation. The Trustee shall adopt such plan of liquidation by filing the appropriate statement on the final tax return of each REMIC. Upon complete liquidation or final distribution of all of the assets of the Trust, the Trust and each of REMIC I and REMIC II shall terminate.

ARTICLE XI

Miscellaneous Provisions

           Section 11.01 Intent of Parties. The parties intend that each of REMIC I and REMIC II shall be treated as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes and that the provisions of this Agreement should be construed in furtherance of this intent.

The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.

           (e) Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices for real property records in all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or all of the Mortgaged Properties are situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere. The Seller shall effect such recordation, at the expense of the Trust upon the request in writing of a Certificateholder, but only if such direction is accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel (provided at the expense of the Certificateholder requesting recordation) to the effect that such recordation would materially and beneficially affect the interests of the Certificateholders or is required by law.

           Section 11.04 Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders. (a) The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not terminate this Agreement or the Trust, nor entitle such Certificateholder's legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or 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 expressly provided in this Agreement, no Certificateholders shall have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the operation and management of the Trust, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth, or contained in the terms of the Certificates, be construed so as to establish the Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members of an association; nor shall any Certificateholders 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 shall have any right by virtue of any provision of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon, under or with respect to this Agreement against the Seller, Xxxxxxxxx, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer or any successor to any such parties unless (i) such Certificateholder previously shall have given to the Trustee a written notice of a continuing default, as herein provided, (ii) the Holders of Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than 51% of the Trust shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs and expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and (iii) the Trustee, for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding.

           (d) No one or more Certificateholders shall have any right by virtue of any provision of this Agreement to affect the rights of any other Certificateholders or to obtain or seek to obtain priority or preference over any other such Certificateholder, or to enforce any right under this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section 11.04, each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

           Section 11.05 Acts of Certificateholders. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Agreement to be given or taken by Certificateholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Certificateholders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing. 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 expressly required, to the Seller. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Agreement and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Seller, if made in the manner provided in this Section 11.05.

           (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 a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his or her individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his or her 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 on such Certificates, except an endorsement in accordance with Section 5.02 made on a Certificate presented in accordance with Section 5.04) shall be proved by the Certificate Register, and neither the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Custodian, the Securities Administrator, the Seller, Xxxxxxxxx, the Master Servicer nor any successor to any such parties shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

           (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action of 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 or exchange thereof, if applicable, or in lieu thereof with respect to anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Custodian, the Securities Administrator, the Seller, Xxxxxxxxx, the Master Servicer or any successor to any such party in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Certificates.

           (e) In determining whether the Holders of the requisite percentage of Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, Certificates owned by the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Custodian, the Securities Administrator, the Seller, the Master Servicer or any Affiliate thereof shall be disregarded, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.02(b) and except that, in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Certificates which the Trustee knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded. Certificates which have been pledged in good faith to the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Custodian, the Securities Administrator, the Seller, the Master Servicer or any Affiliate thereof may be regarded as outstanding if the pledgor establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgor's right to act with respect to such Certificates and that the pledgor is not an Affiliate of the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Custodian, the Securities Administrator, the Seller, or the Master Servicer, as the case may be.

           Section 11.06 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE CERTIFICATES SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAWS RULES AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

XXXXXXXXX MORTGAGE SECURITIES TRUST 2003-2
MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE SERIES 2003-2

evidencing a fractional undivided interest in the distributions allocable to the Class A Certificates issued by Xxxxxxxxx Mortgage Securities Trust 2003-2, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”) consisting primarily of a pool of one- to four-family, first lien, hybrid and adjustable interest rate mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”).

           This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust, and does not represent an obligation of or interest in SAMI, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, Xxxxxxxxx, the Delaware Trustee or the Trustee (each as defined below) or any of their affiliates or any other person. Neither this Certificate nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental entity or by SAMI, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, Xxxxxxxxx, the Delaware Trustee or the Trustee or any of their affiliates or any other person.

           This certifies that ____________ is the registered owner of the Fractional Undivided Interest evidenced hereby in the beneficial ownership interest of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate in the Trust, which was created pursuant to the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of March 1, 2003 (the “Agreement”), among Structured Asset Mortgage Investments Inc. (“SAMI”), as seller (the “Seller”), Xxxxx Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”) and securities administrator (the “Securities Administrator”), Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Deutsche Bank Trust Company Delaware, as Delaware trustee (the “Delaware Trustee”) and Xxxxxxxxx Mortgage Home Loans, Inc. (“Xxxxxxxxx”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter. The Mortgage Loans were sold by Xxxxxxxxx to SAMI pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2003, and from SAMI to the Trust pursuant to the Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of its acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

           Interest on this Certificate will accrue for each Distribution Date during the preceding Interest Accrual Period in an amount equal to the product of (i) the actual number of days elapsed during such Interest Accrual Period divided by 360, (ii) the Class A Pass-Through Rate and (iii) the Current Principal Amount hereof immediately prior to such Distribution Date. The Trustee will distribute on the 25th day of each month, or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day (each, a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the first Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on, if this Certificate is a Book-Entry Certificate, the Business Day preceding such Distribution Date and otherwise, the last Business Day of the calendar month preceding the month of such Distribution Date, an amount equal to the product of the Fractional Undivided Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount (of interest and principal, if any) required to be distributed to the Holders of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate. The Assumed Final Distribution Date is the Distribution Date in the month immediately following the month of the latest scheduled maturity date of any Mortgage Loan and is not likely to be the date on which the Current Principal Amount of this Class of Certificates will be reduced to zero.

           Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Trustee by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register or, if such Person so requests by notifying the Trustee in writing as specified in the Agreement by wire transfer. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on 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 office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose and designated in such notice. Notwithstanding the forgoing, if this Certificate is a Book-Entry Certificate, subject to the immediately preceding sentence regarding final distributions on this Certificate, distributions shall be made to the Depository by wire transfer in immediately available funds. The initial Current Principal Amount of this Certificate is set forth above. The Current Principal Amount hereof will be reduced to the extent of distributions allocable to principal hereon.

           This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as set forth on the face hereof (the “Certificates”), issued in six Classes. The Certificates, in the aggregate, evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust formed pursuant to the Agreement.

           The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the Trust for payment hereunder and no other party to the Agreement is liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the Agreement.

           This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.

           The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof by the Seller, Xxxxxxxxx, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Delaware Trustee and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than 51% of the Trust (or, if such amendment affects only one or more classes, of such Class or 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 lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

           As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable with the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies maintained by the Trustee for such purposes, accompanied by an executed written instrument of assignment and transfer in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations representing a like aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest will be issued to the designated transferee.

           The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in the Classes and denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Certificate is exchangeable for one or more new Certificates evidencing the same Class and in the same aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

           No service charge will be made to the Certificateholders for any such registration of transfer, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. SAMI, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, Xxxxxxxxx, the Delaware Trustee and the Trustee and any successor 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 SAMI, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, Xxxxxxxxx, the Delaware Trustee or the Trustee or any such successor shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

           The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligations to make payments to Certificateholders with respect to the termination of the Agreement) shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the later of the (A) final payment or other liquidation (or Advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust and (B) disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and the remittance of all funds due under the Agreement, (ii) the optional repurchase by Xxxxxxxxx of all the Mortgage Loans and other assets of the Trust in accordance with the terms of the Agreement or (iii) the payment to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement. Such optional repurchase may be made only on or after the Distribution Date on which the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than the percentage of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance specified in the Agreement of the Mortgage Loans at March 1, 2003 (the “Cut-off Date”). The exercise of such right will effect the early retirement of the Certificates.

           Xxxxxxxxx has the right to effect early retirement of this Certificate by exercising its Optional Securities Purchase Right on any Distribution Date on or after the Distribution Date that the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the end of the immediately preceding Due Period is equal to or less than 20% of the Cut-Off Date Balance thereof, as set forth in Section 5.09 of the Agreement. The Holder of this Certificate shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to Current Interest, principal and any Interest Carry-Forward Amount allocable to this Certificate as specified in the Agreement. Following exercise of the Optional Securities Purchase Right by Xxxxxxxxx, this Certificate shall be deemed cancelled.

           Unless this Certificate has been countersigned by an authorized signatory of the Trustee by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement, or be valid for any purpose.

          IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trustee has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.

           The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligations to make payments to Certificateholders with respect to the termination of the Agreement) shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the later of the (A) final payment or other liquidation (or Advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust and (B) disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and the remittance of all funds due under the Agreement, (ii) the optional repurchase by Xxxxxxxxx of all the Mortgage Loans and other assets of the Trust in accordance with the terms of the Agreement or (iii) the payment to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement. Such optional repurchase may be made only on or after the Distribution Date on which the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than the percentage of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance specified in the Agreement of the Mortgage Loans at March 1, 2003 (the “Cut-off Date”). The exercise of such right will effect the early retirement of the Certificates.

           Xxxxxxxxx has the right to effect early retirement of this Certificate by exercising its Optional Securities Purchase Right on any Distribution Date on or after the Distribution Date that the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the end of the immediately preceding Due Period is equal to or less than 20% of the Cut-Off Date Balance thereof, as set forth in Section 5.09 of the Agreement. The Holder of this Certificate shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to Current Interest, principal and any Interest Carry-Forward Amount allocable to this Certificate as specified in the Agreement. Following exercise of the Optional Securities Purchase Right by Xxxxxxxxx, this Certificate shall be deemed cancelled.

           Unless this Certificate has been countersigned by an authorized signatory of the Trustee by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement, or be valid for any purpose.

           IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trustee has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.

MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATES SERIES 2003-2

evidencing a fractional undivided interest in the distributions allocable to the Class B-IO Certificates issued by Xxxxxxxxx Mortgage Securities Trust 2003-2, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”) consisting primarily of a pool of one- to four-family, first lien, hybrid and adjustable interest rate mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”).

           This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust, and does not represent an obligation of or interest in SAMI, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, Xxxxxxxxx, the Delaware Trustee or the Trustee (each as defined below) or any of their affiliates or any other person. Neither this Certificate nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental entity or by SAMI, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, Xxxxxxxxx, the Delaware Trustee or the Trustee or any of their affiliates or any other person.

           This certifies that __________ is the registered owner of the Fractional Undivided Interest evidenced hereby in the beneficial ownership interest of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate in the Trust, which was created pursuant to the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of March 1, 2003 (the “Agreement”), among Structured Asset Mortgage Investments Inc. (“SAMI”), as seller (the “Seller”), Xxxxx Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”) and securities administrator (the “Securities Administrator”), Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Deutsche Bank Trust Company Delaware, as Delaware trustee (the “Delaware Trustee”) and Xxxxxxxxx Mortgage Home Loans, Inc. (“Xxxxxxxxx”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter. The Mortgage Loans were sold by Xxxxxxxxx to SAMI pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2003, and from SAMI to the Trust pursuant to the Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of its acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

           This Class B-IO Certificate has both a principal balance and a notional balance and does not bear interest at a specified rate. The Trustee will distribute on the 25th day of each month, or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day (each, a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the first Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the last Business Day (or if such last day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the calendar month preceding the month of such Distribution Date, an amount equal to the product of the Fractional Undivided Interest evidenced by this Certificate. The Assumed Final Distribution Date is the Distribution Date in the month immediately following the month of the latest scheduled maturity date of any Mortgage Loan.

           No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless such transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act and such state securities laws. In the event that a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act and such laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities Act and such laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer and such Certificateholder’s prospective transferee shall provide to the Trustee a Rule 144A Certificate or an Investment Letter and/or such other documents as are required under, and such transfer shall otherwise be in compliance with, the Agreement. The Seller shall provide to any Holder of this Certificate and any prospective transferee designated by any such Holder, information required under Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act.

           Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Trustee by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register or, if such Person so requests by notifying the Trustee in writing as specified in the Agreement by wire transfer. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on 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 office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose and designated in such notice. Notwithstanding the forgoing, so long as this Certificate is a Book-Entry Certificate, subject to the immediately preceding sentence regarding final distributions on this Certificate, distributions shall be made to the Depository by wire transfer in immediately available funds. The principal and notional balance of this Certificate will be reduced as provided in the Agreement.

           This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as set forth on the face hereof (the “Certificates”), issued in six Classes. The Certificates, in the aggregate, evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust formed pursuant to the Agreement.

           The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the Trust for payment hereunder and no other party to the Agreement is liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the Agreement.

           This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.

           The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof by the Seller, Xxxxxxxxx, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Delaware Trustee and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than 51% of the Trust (or, if such amendment affects only one or more classes, of such Class or 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 lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

           As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable with the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies maintained by the Trustee for such purposes, accompanied by an executed written instrument of assignment and transfer in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations representing a like aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest will be issued to the designated transferee.

           The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in the Classes and denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Certificate is exchangeable for one or more new Certificates evidencing the same Class and in the same aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

           No service charge will be made to the Certificateholders for any such registration of transfer, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. SAMI, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, Xxxxxxxxx, the Delaware Trustee and the Trustee and any successor 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 SAMI, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, Xxxxxxxxx, the Delaware Trustee or the Trustee or any such successor shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

           The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligations to make payments to Certificateholders with respect to the termination of the Agreement) shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the later of the (A) final payment or other liquidation (or Advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust and (B) disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and the remittance of all funds due under the Agreement, (ii) the optional repurchase by Xxxxxxxxx of all the Mortgage Loans and other assets of the Trust in accordance with the terms of the Agreement or (iii) the payment to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement. Such optional repurchase may be made only on or after the Distribution Date on which the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than the percentage of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance specified in the Agreement of the Mortgage Loans at March 1, 2003 (the “Cut-off Date”). The exercise of such right will effect the early retirement of the Certificates.

           Unless this Certificate has been countersigned by an authorized signatory of the Trustee by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement, or be valid for any purpose.

           IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trustee has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.

MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE SERIES 2003-2

evidencing a fractional undivided interest in the distributions allocable to the Class [R-__] Certificates issued by Xxxxxxxxx Mortgage Securities Trust 2003-2, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”) consisting primarily of a pool of one- to four-family, first lien, hybrid and adjustable interest rate mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”).

           This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust, and does not represent an obligation of or interest in SAMI, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, Xxxxxxxxx, the Delaware Trustee or the Trustee (each as defined below) or any of their affiliates or any other person. Neither this Certificate nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental entity or by SAMI, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, Xxxxxxxxx, the Delaware Trustee or the Trustee or any of their affiliates or any other person.

           This certifies that _______________ is the registered owner of the Fractional Undivided Interest evidenced hereby in the beneficial ownership interest of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate in the Trust, which was created pursuant to the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of March 1, 2003 (the “Agreement”), among Structured Asset Mortgage Investments Inc. (“SAMI”), as seller (the “Seller”), Xxxxx Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”) and securities administrator (the “Securities Administrator”), Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”), Deutsche Bank Trust Company Delaware, as Delaware trustee (the “Delaware Trustee”) and Xxxxxxxxx Mortgage Home Loans, Inc. (“Xxxxxxxxx”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter. The Mortgage Loans were sold by Xxxxxxxxx to SAMI pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2003, and from SAMI to the Trust pursuant to the Agreement. To the extent not defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of its acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

           This Class R-___ Certificate will not bear interest. The Trustee will distribute on the 25th day of each month, or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day (each, a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the first Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the last Business Day (or if such last day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the calendar month preceding the month of such Distribution Date, an amount equal to the product of the Fractional Undivided Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount (of principal, if any) required to be distributed to the Holders of Certificates of the same Class as this Certificate. The Assumed Final Distribution Date is the Distribution Date in the month immediately following the month of the latest scheduled maturity date of any Mortgage Loan. The Residual Certificates are scheduled to receive a payment of their respective initial principal balances on the first Distribution Date.

           Distributions on this Certificate will be made by the Trustee by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register or, if such Person so requests by notifying the Trustee in writing as specified in the Agreement by wire transfer. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on 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 office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose and designated in such notice. The initial Current Principal Amount of this Certificate is set forth above. The Current Principal Amount hereof will be reduced to the extent of distributions allocable to principal hereon.

           Each Holder of this Certificate will be deemed to have agreed to be bound by the restrictions set forth in the Agreement to the effect that (i) each person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in this Certificate must be a United States Person and a Permitted Transferee, (ii) the transfer of any Ownership Interest in this Certificate will be conditioned upon the delivery to the Trustee of, among other things, an affidavit to the effect that it is a United States Person and Permitted Transferee, (iii) any attempted or purported transfer of any Ownership Interest in this Certificate in violation of such restrictions will be absolutely null and void and will vest no rights in the purported transferee, and (iv) if any person other than a United States Person and a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in this Certificate in violation of such restrictions, then the Seller will have the right, in its sole discretion and without notice to the Holder of this Certificate, to sell this Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Company, which purchaser may be the Seller, or any affiliate of the Seller, on such terms and conditions as the Seller may choose.

           This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as set forth on the face hereof (the “Certificates”), issued in six Classes. The Certificates, in the aggregate, evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust formed pursuant to the Agreement.

           The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the Trust for payment hereunder and no other party to the Agreement is liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the Agreement.

           This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced hereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.

           The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof by the Seller, Xxxxxxxxx, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Delaware Trustee and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing Fractional Undivided Interests aggregating not less than 51% of the Trust (or, if such amendment affects only one or more classes, of such Class or 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 lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

           As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable with the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies maintained by the Trustee for such purposes, accompanied by an executed written instrument of assignment and transfer in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations representing a like aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest will be issued to the designated transferee.

           The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in the Classes and denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Certificate is exchangeable for one or more new Certificates evidencing the same Class and in the same aggregate Fractional Undivided Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

           No service charge will be made to the Certificateholders for any such registration of transfer, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. SAMI, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, Xxxxxxxxx, the Delaware Trustee and the Trustee and any successor 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 SAMI, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, Xxxxxxxxx, the Delaware Trustee or the Trustee or any such successor shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

           The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust created thereby (other than the obligations to make payments to Certificateholders with respect to the termination of the Agreement) shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the later of the (A) final payment or other liquidation (or Advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust and (B) disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and the remittance of all funds due under the Agreement, (ii) the optional repurchase by Xxxxxxxxx of all the Mortgage Loans and other assets of the Trust in accordance with the terms of the Agreement or (iii) the payment to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement. Such optional repurchase may be made only on or after the Distribution Date on which the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans is less than the percentage of the aggregate Outstanding Principal Balance specified in the Agreement of the Mortgage Loans at March 1, 2003 (the “Cut-off Date”). The exercise of such right will effect the early retirement of the Certificates.

           Unless this Certificate has been countersigned by an authorized signatory of the Trustee by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement, or be valid for any purpose.

           IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trustee has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

           In connection with our purchase of Private Certificates, we confirm that:

(i) we understand that the Private Certificates are not being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") or any applicable state securities or "Blue Sky" laws, and are being sold to us in a transaction that is exempt from the registration requirements of such laws;

(ii) any information we desired concerning the Certificates, including the Private Certificates, Xxxxxxxxx Mortgage Securities Trust 2003-2 (the "Trust"), in which the Certificates represent the entire beneficial ownership interest or any other matter we deemed relevant to our decision to purchase the Private Certificates has been made available to us;

(iii) we are able to bear the economic risk of investment in the Private Certificates; we are an institutional "accredited investor" as defined in Section 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Act and a sophisticated institutional investor;

(iv) we are acquiring the Private Certificates for our own account, not as nominee for any other person, and not with a present view to any distribution or other disposition of the Private Certificates;

(v) we agree the Private Certificates must be held indefinitely by us (and may not be sold, pledged, hypothecated or in any way disposed of) unless subsequently registered under the Act and any applicable state securities or "Blue Sky" laws or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act and any applicable state securities or "Blue Sky" laws is available;

(vi) we agree that in the event that at some future time we wish to dispose of or exchange the Private Certificate (such disposition or exchange not being currently foreseen or contemplated), we will not transfer or exchange the Private Certificates unless:

(A) (1) the sale is to an Eligible Purchaser (as defined below), (2) if required by the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below) a letter to substantially the same effect as either this letter or, if the Eligible Purchaser is a Qualified Institutional Buyer as defined under Rule 144A of the Act, the Rule 144A and Related Matters Certificate in the form attached to the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement (as defined below) (or such other documentation as may be acceptable to the Trustee) is executed promptly by the purchaser and delivered to the addressees hereof and (3) all offers or solicitations in connection with the sale, whether directly or through any agent acting on our behalf, are limited only to Eligible Purchasers and are not made by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising whatsoever; and

(B) if the Private Certificates are not registered under the Act (as to which we acknowledge you have no obligation), the Private Certificates are sold in a transaction that does not require registration under the Act and any applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws and, if Deutsche Bank National Trust Company (the "Trustee") so requests, a satisfactory Opinion of Counsel is furnished to such effect, which Opinion of Counsel shall be an expense of the transferor or the transferee;

(vii) we agree to be bound by all of the terms (including those relating to restrictions on transfer) of the Trust, Pooling and Servicing, pursuant to which the Trust was formed; we have reviewed carefully and understand the terms of the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(viii) we either: (i) are not acquiring the Private Certificates directly or indirectly by, or on behalf of, an employee benefit plan or other retirement arrangement which is subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and/or section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or (ii) are providing a representation or an opinion of counsel to the effect that the proposed transfer and/or holding of a Private Certificate and the servicing, management and/or operation of the Trust and its assets: (I) will not result in any prohibited transaction which is not covered under an individual or class prohibited transaction exemption, including, but not limited to, Prohibited Transaction Exemption ("PTE") 84-14, XXX 00-00, XXX 00-0, XXX 00-00, XXX 00-00 or Section 401(c) of ERISA and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (II) will not give rise to any additional fiduciary duties on the part of the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, any Servicer or the Trustee.

(ix) We understand that the Class B-IO Certificate bears, and will continue to bear, a legend to substantially the following effect: "THIS CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

The Custodian shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine said documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that the same are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face.

           (c)  [If not previously delivered by the Trustee] Not later than 180 days after the Closing Date, the Custodian shall determine whether all the documents required to be in the Mortgage Files when delivered to it as provided in Section 2.02 of the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement and deliver to the Trustee, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Seller and the Master Servicer a Final Certification substantially in the form of Exhibit C-3 to the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

           (d)  [If applicable] In reviewing the Mortgage Files as provided herein and in the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Custodian shall make no representation as to and shall not be responsible to verify (i) the validity, legality, enforceability, due authorization, recordability, sufficiency or genuineness of any of the documents included in any Mortgage File or (ii) the collectibility, insurability, effectiveness or suitability of any of the documents in any Mortgage File.

           Upon receipt of written request from the Trustee, the Custodian shall as soon as practicable supply the Trustee with a list of all of the documents relating to the Mortgage Loans then contained in the Mortgage Files.

           Section 2.4.  Notification of Breaches of Representations and Warranties. Upon discovery by the Custodian of a breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company or the Mortgage Loan Seller as set forth in the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement with respect to a Mortgage Loan relating to a Mortgage File, the Custodian shall give prompt written notice to the Company, the Mortgage Loan Seller, the related Servicer and the Trustee.

           Section 2.5.  Custodian to Cooperate: Release of Mortgage Files. Upon receipt of written notice from the Trustee that the Mortgage Loan Seller has repurchased a Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and that the purchase price therefore has been deposited in the Master Servicer Collection Account or the Distribution Account, then the Custodian agrees to promptly release to the Mortgage Loan Seller the related Mortgage File.

           Upon the Custodian’s receipt of a request for release (a “Request for Release”) substantially in the form of Exhibit D to the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement signed by a Servicing Officer of the related Servicer stating that it has received payment in full of a Mortgage Loan or that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Custodian agrees promptly to release to the related Servicer the related Mortgage File. The Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver to the Custodian and the Custodian agrees to accept the Mortgage Note and other documents constituting the Mortgage File with respect to any Substitute Mortgage Loan.

           From time to time as is appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose, collection under any Primary Insurance Policy, the Master Servicer shall cause to the extent required in the related Servicing Agreement, the related Servicer to deliver to the Custodian a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer requesting that possession of all of a Mortgage File be released to the related Servicer and certifying as to the reason for such release and that such release will not invalidate any insurance coverage provided in respect of the Mortgage Loan under any of the Insurance Policies. Upon receipt of the foregoing, the Custodian shall deliver the Mortgage File to the related Servicer. As required by the related Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall cause the related Servicer to return each released Mortgage File or any document therein to the Custodian when the need therefor by the related Servicer no longer exists, unless (i) the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Master Servicer Collection Account or the Distribution Account or (ii) the Mortgage File or such document has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the related Servicer has delivered to the Custodian a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which such Mortgage File or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery.

           At any time that a Servicer is required to deliver to the Custodian a Request for Release, the Master Servicer shall cause the Servicer to deliver two copies of the Request for Release if delivered in hard copy or the Servicer may furnish such Request for Release electronically to the Custodian, in which event the Servicing Officer transmitting the same shall be deemed to have signed the Request for Release. In connection with any Request for Release of a Mortgage File because of a repurchase of a Mortgage Loan, such Request for Release shall be accompanied by an assignment of mortgage, without recourse, from the Trustee to the Mortgage Loan Seller and the related Mortgage Note shall be endorsed without recourse by the Trustee and be returned to the Mortgage Loan Seller. In connection with any Request for Release of a Mortgage File because of the payment in full of a Mortgage Loan, such Request for Release shall be accompanied by a certificate of satisfaction or other similar instrument to be executed by or on behalf of the Trustee and returned to the related Servicer.

           Section 2.6.  Assumption Agreements. In the event that any assumption agreement or substitution of liability agreement is entered into with respect to any Mortgage Loan subject to this Agreement in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer, to the extent provided in the related Servicing Agreement, shall cause the related Servicer to notify the Custodian that such assumption or substitution agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Custodian the original of such assumption or substitution agreement, which shall be added to the related Mortgage File and, for all purposes, shall be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting parts thereof.

ARTICLE III.
CONCERNING THE CUSTODIAN

           Section 3.1.  Custodian a Bailee and Agent of the Trustee. With respect to each Mortgage Note, Mortgage and other documents constituting each Mortgage File which are delivered to the Custodian, the Custodian is exclusively the bailee and agent of the Trustee and the Trust and has no instructions to hold any Mortgage Note or Mortgage for the benefit of any person other than the Trustee, the Trust and the Certificateholders and undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. Except upon compliance with the provisions of Section 2.5 of this Agreement, no Mortgage Note, Mortgage or Mortgage File shall be delivered by the Custodian to the Company, the Servicers or the Master Servicer or otherwise released from the possession of the Custodian.

           Section 3.2.  [Reserved.]

           Section 3.3.  Custodian May Own Certificates. The Custodian in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights it would have if it were not Custodian.

           Section 3.4.  Xxxxxxxxx to Pay Custodian’s Fees and Expenses. Xxxxxxxxx, in its capacity as Servicer of a substantial portion of the Mortgage Loans, and pursuant to a letter agreement between Xxxxxxxxx and the Custodian dated the date hereof, covenants and agrees to pay to the Custodian from time to time, and the Custodian shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Custodian, and Xxxxxxxxx will pay or reimburse the Custodian upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Custodian in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not regularly in its employ), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith or to the extent that such cost or expense is indemnified by the Trust pursuant to the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In the event that Xxxxxxxxx fails to pay the Custodian as provided in such letter agreement, the Custodian shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Trust as provided in Section 9.05 of the Trust, Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

           Section 3.5.  Custodian May Resign; Trustee May Remove Custodian. The Custodian may resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed upon it as such obligations and duties relate to its acting as Custodian of the Mortgage Loans. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Trustee shall either take custody of the Mortgage Files itself and give prompt notice thereof to the Company, the Master Servicer, Xxxxxxxxx and the Custodian, or promptly appoint a successor Custodian, reasonably acceptable to Xxxxxxxxx and the Master Servicer, by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Custodian and one copy to the successor Custodian. If the Trustee shall not have taken custody of the Mortgage Files and no successor Custodian shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Custodian may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Custodian.

           The Trustee may remove the Custodian at any time with the consent of the Master Servicer and Xxxxxxxxx. In such event, the Trustee shall appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a successor Custodian hereunder. Any successor Custodian shall be a depository institution subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority, shall be able to satisfy the other requirements contained in Section 3.7 and shall be unaffiliated with any Servicer, Xxxxxxxxx or the Company.

           Any resignation or removal of the Custodian and appointment of a successor Custodian pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 3.5 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Custodian. The Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Company, Xxxxxxxxx and the Master Servicer of the appointment of any successor Custodian. No successor Custodian shall be appointed by the Trustee without the prior written approval of Xxxxxxxxx and the Master Servicer.

           Section 3.6.  Merger or Consolidation of Custodian. Any Person into which the Custodian may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Custodian shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Custodian, shall be the successor of the Custodian hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

           Section 3.7.  Representations of the Custodian. The Custodian hereby represents that it is a depository institution subject to supervision or examination by a federal or state authority, has a combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000 and is qualified to do business in the jurisdictions in which it will hold any Mortgage File.

ARTICLE IV.
