ARTICLE IV

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS

Section 4.01 Servicing.

The Servicer, as independent contract servicer, shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and with Applicable Requirements, and shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which the Servicer may deem necessary or desirable and consistent with the terms of this Agreement and with Applicable Requirements and exercise the same care that it customarily employs for its own account. Except as set forth in this Agreement, the Servicer shall service the Mortgage Loans in strict compliance with the servicing provisions of the Xxxxxx Xxx Guide, which include, but are not limited to, provisions regarding the liquidation of Mortgage Loans, the collection of Mortgage Loan payments, the payment of taxes, insurance and other charges, the maintenance of hazard insurance with a Qualified Insurer, the maintenance of mortgage impairment insurance, the maintenance of fidelity bond and errors and omissions insurance, inspections, the restoration of Mortgaged Property, the maintenance of Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies, insurance claims, the title, management and disposition of REO Property, permitted withdrawals with respect to REO Property, liquidation reports, and reports of foreclosures and abandonments of Mortgaged Property, the transfer of Mortgaged Property, the release of Mortgage Loan Documents, annual statements, and examination of records and facilities. In the event of any conflict, inconsistency or discrepancy between any of the servicing provisions of this Agreement and any of the servicing provisions of the Xxxxxx Mae Guide, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and be binding upon the Owner and the Servicer.

Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer may waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor if in the Servicer's reasonable and prudent determination such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the Owner, provided, however, that unless the Servicer has obtained the prior written consent of the Owner, the Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage Interest Rate, the Lifetime Rate Cap, the Initial Rate Cap, the Periodic Rate Cap or the Gross Margin, forgive the payment of principal or interest, or waive, in whole or in part, a Prepayment Penalty (except as permitted by Section 4.16), reduce or increase the outstanding principal balance (except for actual payments of principal) or change the final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan ; provided, further, that if the Mortgage Loan is held by a REMIC, unless such Mortgage Loan is in default or default with respect thereto is reasonably foreseeable, the Servicer shall not permit any modification of such Mortgage Loan that would constitute a significant modification within the meaning of the REMIC provisions of the Code. In the event of any such modification which has been agreed to in writing by the Owner and which permits the deferral of interest or principal payments on any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Remittance Date in any month in which any such principal or interest payment has been deferred, deposit in the Custodial Account from its own funds, in accordance with Section 4.04, the difference between (a) such month's principal and one month's interest at the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate on the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan and (b) the amount paid by the Mortgagor. The Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for such advances to the same extent as for all other advances pursuant to Section 4.05. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall continue, and is hereby authorized and empowered, to prepare, execute and deliver, all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release, discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Servicer may not enter into a forbearance agreement or similar arrangement with respect to any Mortgage Loan which runs more than 180 days after the first delinquent Due Date. Any such agreement shall be approved by any applicable holder of a Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if required.

In servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall employ Applicable Requirements, giving due consideration to the Owner's reliance on the Servicer. Unless a different time period is stated in this Agreement, Owner shall be deemed to have given consent in connection with a particular matter if Owner does not affirmatively grant or deny consent within five (5) Business Days from the date Owner receives a second written request for consent for such matter from Servicer as servicer.

The Mortgage Loans may be subserviced by the Subservicer on behalf of the Servicer, provided that the Subservicer is an entity that engages in the business of originating, acquiring or servicing loans, and in either case shall be authorized to transact business, and licensed to service mortgage loans, in the state or states where the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law to enable the Subservicer to perform its obligations hereunder and under the Subservicing Agreement, and in either case shall be a FHLMC or Xxxxxx Xxx approved mortgage servicer in good standing, and no event has occurred, including but not limited to a change in insurance coverage, which would make it unable to comply with the eligibility requirements for lenders imposed by Xxxxxx Mae or for Servicer/servicers imposed by FHLMC, or which would require notification to Xxxxxx Xxx or FHLMC. In addition, each Subservicer will obtain and preserve its qualifications to do business as a foreign corporation and its licenses to service mortgage loans, in each jurisdiction in which such qualifications and/or licenses are or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement, or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform or cause to be performed its duties under the related Subservicing Agreement. The Servicer may perform any of its servicing responsibilities hereunder or may cause the Subservicer to perform any such servicing responsibilities on its behalf, but the use by the Servicer of the Subservicer shall not release the Servicer from any of its obligations hereunder and the Servicer shall remain responsible hereunder for all acts and omissions of the Subservicer as fully as if such acts and omissions were those of the Servicer. The Servicer shall pay all fees and expenses of the Subservicer from its own funds, and the Subservicer's fee shall not exceed the Servicing Fee. Servicer shall notify Owner promptly in writing upon the appointment of any Subservicer.

At the cost and expense of the Servicer, without any right of reimbursement from the Custodial Account, the Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights and responsibilities of the Subservicer and arrange for any servicing responsibilities to be performed by a successor subservicer meeting the requirements in the preceding paragraph, provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prevent or prohibit the Servicer, at the Servicer's option, from electing to service the related Mortgage Loans itself. In the event that the Servicer's responsibilities and duties under this Agreement are terminated pursuant to Section 4.13, 8.04, 9.01, 10.01, 10.02 or 11.02 and if requested to do so by the Owner, the Servicer shall at its own cost and expense terminate the rights and responsibilities of the Subservicer effective as of the date of termination of the Servicer. The Servicer shall pay all fees, expenses or penalties necessary in order to terminate the rights and responsibilities of the Subservicer from the Servicer's own funds without reimbursement from the Owner.

Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and the Subservicer or any reference herein to actions taken through the Subservicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall not be relieved of its obligations to the Owner and shall be obligated to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if it alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with the Subservicer for indemnification of the Servicer by the Subservicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification. The Servicer will indemnify and hold Owner harmless from any loss, liability or expense arising out of its use of a Subservicer to perform any of its servicing duties, responsibilities and obligations hereunder.

Any Subservicing Agreement and any other transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving the Subservicer shall be deemed to be between the Subservicer and Servicer alone, and the Owner shall have no obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the Subservicer including no obligation, duty or liability of Owner to pay the Subservicer's fees and expenses. For purposes of distributions and advances by the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received a payment on a Mortgage Loan when the Subservicer has received such payment.

If a Mortgage Loan has been paid in full or repurchased pursuant to Section 11.03, the Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Owner, in its own name to cause the removal from the registration of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS System or to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Owner, any and all instruments of satisfaction or release and other comparable instruments with respect to such release or satisfaction of Mortgage, in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the Owner and its successors and assigns.

Section 4.02 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments.

Continuously from the date hereof until the date each Mortgage Loan ceases to be serviced subject to this Agreement, the Servicer will proceed diligently to collect all payments due under each Mortgage Loan when the same shall become due and payable and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement, Applicable Requirements, and the terms and provisions of related Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held for its own account. Further, the Servicer will take special care in ascertaining and estimating annual escrow payments, and all other charges that, as provided in the Mortgage, will become due and payable, so that the installments payable by the Mortgagors will be sufficient to pay such charges as and when they become due and payable.

Section 4.03 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.

The Servicer shall use its best efforts, consistent with the procedures that the Servicer would use in servicing loans for its own account, consistent with Applicable Requirements, any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies and the best interest of Owner, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 4.01. Foreclosure or comparable proceedings shall be initiated within one hundred twenty (120) days of default for Mortgaged Properties for which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments. The Servicer shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to realize upon defaulted Mortgage Loans in such manner as will maximize the receipt of principal and interest by the Owner, taking into account, among other things, the timing of foreclosure proceedings. The foregoing is subject to the provisions that, in any case in which Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such property unless it shall determine in its discretion (i) that such restoration will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan to the Owner after reimbursement to itself for such expenses, and (ii) that such expenses will be recoverable by the Servicer through Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds from the related Mortgaged Property, as contemplated in Section 4.05. Servicer shall obtain prior approval of Owner as to restoration expenses in excess of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000). The Servicer shall provide default’s legal activity status to the Owner on a monthly basis. The Servicer shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings or functions; provided, however, that it shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof from the related property, as contemplated in Section 4.05. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Owner has received actual notice of, or has actual knowledge of, the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance on the related Mortgaged Property, the Owner may instruct Servicer not to take title or possession of the Mortgaged Property or any other action reasonable under the circumstances. In the event that Servicer as servicer receives notice that the Mortgaged Property is contaminated by any toxic or hazardous substance, Servicer shall so notify Owner.

In the event that a Mortgage Loan becomes part of a REMIC, and becomes REO Property, such property shall be disposed of by Servicer, with the consent of Owner as required pursuant to this Agreement, prior to the close of the third calendar year after the year in which the REO Property is acquired, unless Servicer (i) obtains an extension from the Internal Revenue Service or (ii) provides to the trustee under such REMIC an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holding of such REO Property subsequent the expiration of such period, will not result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" as defined in Section 860F of the Code, or cause the transaction to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that certificates are outstanding, in which event the REO Property must be disposed of prior to the expiration of the period specified in such extension or such Opinion of Counsel. Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each such REO Property for the certificate holders solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such property to fail to qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(E) of the Code, or to receive any "net income from foreclosure property" which is subject to taxation under the REMIC provisions of the Code. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such property, the Servicer shall either itself or through an agent selected by Servicer, protect and conserve such property in the same manner and to such an extent as is customary in the locality where such property is located. Additionally, Servicer shall perform the tax withholding and reporting related to Sections 1445 and 6050J of the Code, if required by the REMIC.

The Owner shall have the right, but not the obligation, to terminate the servicing of any Mortgage Loan, without the payment of a termination fee, as more particularly described in Section 10.02, once such Mortgage Loan becomes ninety (90) days or more delinquent.

Section 4.04 Establishment of Custodial Accounts; Deposits in Custodial Accounts.

The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to each Mortgage Loan separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Custodial Accounts. The Custodial Account shall be an Eligible Account. Funds deposited in the Custodial Account may be drawn on in accordance with Section 4.05. The creation of any Custodial Account shall be evidenced by a letter agreement in the form shown in Exhibit B hereto. The original of such letter agreement shall be furnished to the Owner on the initial Transfer Date, and upon the request of any subsequent Owner.

The Servicer shall deposit in the Custodial Account on a daily basis, and retain therein the following payments and collections received or made by it subsequent to the related Cut-off Date, or received by it prior to the related Cut-off Date but allocable to a period subsequent thereto, other than in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the related Cut-off Date:

(iv)

any amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer in connection with any REO Property pursuant to Section 4.13;

(v)

all Insurance Proceeds including amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Sections 4.08, 4.10 and 4.11, other than proceeds to be held in the Escrow Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with Applicable Requirements;

(vi)

(xi)

any Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount.

(i)

any amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer in connection with any losses on Eligible Investments.

The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Custodial Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late payment charges and assumption fees, to the extent permitted by Section 6.01, need not be deposited by the Servicer in the Custodial Account. Any interest paid on funds deposited in the Custodial Account by the depository institution shall accrue to the benefit of the Servicer and the Servicer shall be entitled to retain and withdraw such interest from the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.05(iv). The Servicer may invest the funds in the Custodial Account in Eligible Investments, which shall mature not later than a date sufficient to make payment on the Remittance Date next following the date of such investment and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to maturity. All income and gains realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit of the Servicer as additional compensation and shall be subject to its withdrawal in accordance with Section 4.05(v). The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments (to the extent not offset by income from other such investments) shall be deposited in the Custodial Account by the Servicer out of its own funds, without reimbursement therefore.

Section 4.05 Permitted Withdrawals From the Custodial Account.

The Servicer may, from time to time, withdraw from the Custodial Account for the following purposes:

(i) to make payments to the Owner in the amounts and in the manner provided for in Section 5.01;

(ii) to reimburse itself for Monthly Advances, the Servicer's right to reimburse itself pursuant to this subclause (ii) being limited to amounts received on the related Mortgage Loan which represent late collections (net of the related Servicing Fee) of principal and/or interest respecting which any such advance was made, it being understood that, in the case of such reimbursement, the Servicer's right thereto shall be prior to the rights of the Owner;

(iii) to reimburse itself for unreimbursed Servicing Advances and any unpaid Servicing Fees, the Servicer's right to reimburse itself pursuant to this subclause (iii) with respect to any Mortgage Loan being limited to related proceeds from Liquidation Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Xxxxxx Mae Guide or as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, it being understood that for those Mortgage Loans in foreclosure, the Owner shall reimburse the Servicer for Servicing Advances and Servicing Fees through the completion of foreclosure and disposition of the REO Property; such reimbursement shall be monthly after completion of foreclosure or deed-in-lieu proceedings;

(iv) to reimburse itself for unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances, to the extent that such amounts are nonrecoverable by the Servicer pursuant to subclause (ii) or (iii) above by netting the unreimbursed Servicing Advances from the monthly remittance, on the determination period following the liquidation disposition;

(v) to pay to itself as part of its servicing compensation: (a) any interest earned on funds in the Custodial Account (all such interest to be withdrawn monthly not later than each Remittance Date), and (b) the Servicing Fee from that portion of any payment or recovery as to interest with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan and (c) all income and gain earned on the investment of funds deposited in the Custodial Account;

(vi) to pay to itself with respect to each Mortgage Loan that has been repurchased pursuant to Section 3.03 all amounts received thereon and not distributed as of the date on which the related repurchase price is determined,

(vii) to transfer funds to another Eligible Account in accordance with Section 4.09 hereof;

(viii) to remove funds inadvertently placed in the Custodial Account by the Servicer; and

(ix) to clear and terminate the Custodial Account upon the termination of this Agreement.

Section 4.06 Establishment of Escrow Accounts; Deposits in Escrow Accounts.

The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to each Mortgage Loan which constitute Escrow Payments separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Escrow Accounts. The Escrow Account shall be an Eligible Account. Funds deposited in the Escrow Account may be drawn on by the Servicer in accordance with Section 4.07. The creation of any Escrow Account shall be evidenced by a letter agreement in the form shown in Exhibit C. The original of such letter agreement shall be furnished to the Owner on the initial Transfer Date, and upon request to any subsequent Owner.

The Servicer shall deposit in the Escrow Account or Accounts on a daily basis, and retain therein:

(i) all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage Loans, for the purpose of effecting timely payment of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement;

(ii) all Insurance Proceeds which are to be applied to the restoration or repair of any Mortgaged Property; and

(iii) all Servicing Advances for Mortgagors whose Escrow Payments are insufficient to cover escrow disbursements.

The Servicer shall make withdrawals from the Escrow Account only to effect such payments as are required under this Agreement, and for such other purposes as shall be as set forth or in accordance with Section 4.07. The Servicer shall be entitled to retain any interest paid on funds deposited in the Escrow Account by the depository institution other than interest on escrowed funds required by law to be paid to the Mortgagor and, to the extent required by law, the Servicer shall pay interest on escrowed funds to the Mortgagor notwithstanding that the Escrow Account is non-interest bearing or that interest paid thereon is insufficient for such purposes without reimbursement.

Section 4.07 Permitted Withdrawals From Escrow Account.

Withdrawals from the Escrow Account may be made by Servicer only:

(i) to effect timely payments of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy premiums, if applicable, fire and hazard insurance premiums, condominium assessments and comparable items;

(ii) to reimburse Servicer for any Servicing Advance made by Servicer with respect to a related Mortgage Loan but only from amounts received on the related Mortgage Loan which represent late payments or collections of Escrow Payments thereunder;

(iv) for transfer to the Custodial Account in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;

As part of its servicing duties, the Servicer shall pay to the Mortgagors interest on funds in the Escrow Account, to the extent required by law, and to the extent that interest earned on funds in the Escrow Account is insufficient, shall pay such interest from its own funds, without any reimbursement therefor; and

(viii) to the extent permitted by this Agreement, to pay to the Mortgagors or other parties Insurance Proceeds deposited in accordance with Section 4.06.

Section 4.08 Payment of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges; Maintenance of Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies; Collections Hereunder.

With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall maintain accurate records reflecting the status of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates and other charges which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the status of primary mortgage insurance premiums and fire and hazard insurance coverage and shall obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such charges, including renewal premiums and shall effect payment thereof prior to the applicable penalty or termination date and at a time appropriate for securing maximum discounts allowable, employing for such purpose deposits of the Mortgagor in the Escrow Account which shall have been estimated and accumulated by the Servicer in amounts sufficient for such purposes, as allowed under the terms of the Mortgage or applicable law. To the extent that the Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall determine that any such payments are made by the Mortgagor at the time they first become due. The Servicer assumes full responsibility for the timely payment of all such bills and shall effect timely payments of all such bills irrespective of the Mortgagor's faithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make advances from its own funds to effect such payments.

The Servicer will maintain in full force and effect Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies issued by a Qualified Insurer with respect to each Mortgage Loan for which such coverage is herein required. Such coverage will be maintained until the loan-to-value ratio of the related Mortgage Loan is reduced to 80% or less in the case of a Mortgage Loan having a Loan-to-Value Ratio at origination in excess of 80%; provided, however, that for purposes hereof, the Loan-to-Value Ratio shall be determined in accordance with applicable law if such determination is different from the definition of Loan-to-Value Ratio provided in this Agreement. The Servicer will not cancel or refuse to renew any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy in effect on the related Transfer Date that is required to be kept in force under this Agreement unless a replacement Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy for such canceled or nonrenewed policy is obtained from and maintained with a Qualified Insurer. The Servicer shall not take any action which would result in non-coverage under any applicable Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Servicer would have been covered thereunder. In connection with any assumption or substitution agreement entered into or to be entered into pursuant to Section 6.01, the Servicer shall promptly notify the insurer under the related Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if any, of such assumption or substitution of liability in accordance with the terms of such policy and shall take all actions which may be required by such insurer as a condition to the continuation of coverage under the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy. If such Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy is terminated as a result of such assumption or substitution of liability, the Servicer shall obtain a replacement Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy as provided above.

In connection with its activities as servicer, the Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself and the Owner, claims to the insurer under any Private Mortgage Insurance Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy and, in this regard, to take such action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy respecting a defaulted Mortgage Loan. Pursuant to Section 4.04, any amounts collected by the Servicer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.05.

Section 4.09 Transfer of Accounts.

The Servicer may transfer the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account to a different Eligible Account from time to time. Such transfer shall be made only upon obtaining the prior written consent of the Owner, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

Section 4.10 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.

The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage as is acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxx and FHLMC and customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which is equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan or (ii) the greater of (a) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, and (b) an amount such that the proceeds thereof shall be sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor and/or the mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer. If required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, each Mortgage Loan shall be covered by a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration in effect with an insurance carrier acceptable to Xxxxxx Mae and/or FHLMC, in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of (i) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (ii) the maximum insurable value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan or (iii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended. If at any time during the term of the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer determines in accordance with applicable law and pursuant to the Xxxxxx Xxx Guide that a Mortgaged Property is located in a special flood hazard area and is not covered by flood insurance or is covered in an amount less than the amount required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, the Servicer shall notify the related Mortgagor that the Mortgagor must obtain such flood insurance coverage, and if said Mortgagor fails to obtain the required flood insurance coverage within forty-five (45) days after such notification, the Servicer shall immediately force place the required flood insurance on the Mortgagor’s behalf. The Servicer shall also maintain on each REO Property, fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property, and, to the extent required and available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, flood insurance in an amount as provided above. Any amounts collected by the Servicer under any such policies other than amounts to be deposited in the Escrow Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or REO Property, or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with Applicable Requirements, shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.05. It is understood and agreed that no other additional insurance need be required by the Servicer or the Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in respect of the Mortgage Loan, other than pursuant to this Agreement, the Xxxxxx Mae Guide or such applicable state or federal laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance. All such policies shall be endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses with loss payable to the Servicer and its successors and/or assigns and shall provide for at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of any cancellation, reduction in the amount or material change in coverage to the Servicer. The Servicer shall not interfere with the Mortgagor's freedom of choice in selecting either his insurance carrier or agent, provided, however, that the Servicer shall not accept any such insurance policies from insurance companies unless such companies are Qualified Insurers.

Section 4.11 Maintenance of Mortgage Impairment Insurance Policy.

In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy issued by an insurer acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxx and/or FHLMC insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans, then, to the extent such policy provides coverage in an amount equal to the amount required pursuant to Section 4.10 and otherwise complies with all other requirements of Section 4.10, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in Section 4.10, it being understood and agreed that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with Section 4.10, and there shall have been a loss which would have been covered by such policy, deposit in the Custodial Account the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause and Servicer shall not be entitled to reimbursement thereafter. In connection with its activities as servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of the Owner, claims under any such blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy. Upon request of the Owner, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to the Owner a certified true copy of such policy and shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain a statement from the insurer thereunder that such policy shall in no event be terminated or materially modified without thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the Owner.

Section 4.12 Fidelity Bond, Errors and Omissions Insurance.

The Servicer shall maintain, at its own expense, a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, with broad coverage with responsible companies on all officers, employees or other persons acting in any capacity with regard to the Mortgage Loans to handle funds, money, documents and papers relating to the Mortgage Loans. The Fidelity Bond shall be in the form of the Mortgage Banker's Blanket Bond and shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses, including those arising out of forgery, theft, embezzlement and fraud of such Persons. The errors and omissions insurance shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses arising out of errors and omissions and negligent acts of such Persons. Such errors and omissions insurance shall also protect and insure the Servicer against losses in connection with the failure to maintain any insurance policies required pursuant to this Agreement and the release or satisfaction of a Mortgage Loan without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured thereby. No provision of this Section 4.12 requiring the Fidelity Bond or errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. The minimum coverage under any such bond and insurance policy shall be at least equal to the amounts deemed acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxx or FHLMC. The Servicer shall deliver to the Owner a certificate from the surety and the insurer as to the existence of the Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions insurance policy and shall obtain a statement from the surety and the insurer that such Fidelity Bond or insurance policy shall in no event be terminated or materially modified without thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the Owner. The Servicer shall notify the Owner within five (5) Business Days of receipt of notice that such Fidelity Bond or insurance policy will be, or has been, materially modified or terminated. The Owner (or any party having the status of Owner hereunder) and any subsidiary thereof and their successors or assigns as their interests may appear must be named as loss payees on the Fidelity Bond and as additional insured on the errors and omissions policy. Upon request by Owner, Servicer shall provide Owner with an insurance certificate certifying coverage under this Section 4.12, and will provide an update to such certificate upon request, or upon renewal or material modification of coverage.

Section 4.13 Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.

In the event that title to the Mortgaged Property is acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of the Owner or its designee, or in the event the Owner or its designee is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under the "doing business" or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as shall be consistent with an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Servicer from an attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is located. Any Person or Persons holding such title other than the Owner shall acknowledge in writing that such title is being held as nominee for the benefit of the Owner.

The Servicer shall notify the Owner in accordance with the Xxxxxx Mae Guide of each acquisition of REO Property upon such acquisition, together with a copy of the drive by appraisal or brokers price opinion of the Mortgaged Property obtained in connection with such acquisition, and thereafter assume the responsibility for marketing such REO property in accordance with Applicable Requirements. Thereafter, the Servicer shall continue to provide certain administrative services to the Owner relating to such REO Property as set forth in this Section 4.13.

The fee for such administrative services shall be $1,500 to be paid upon liquidation of the REO Property. No Servicing Fee shall be assessed on any REO Property from and after the date on which it becomes an REO Property.

The Servicer shall, either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer, and in accordance with the Xxxxxx Xxx Guide manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property in the same manner that it manages, conserves, protects and operates other foreclosed property for its own account, and in the same manner that similar property in the same locality as the REO Property is managed. The Servicer shall cause each REO Property to be inspected promptly upon the acquisition of title thereto and shall cause each REO Property to be inspected at least monthly thereafter or more frequently as required by the circumstances. The Servicer shall make or cause to be made a written report of each such inspection. Such reports shall be retained in the Servicing File and copies thereof shall be forwarded by the Servicer to the Owner.

The Servicer shall use commercially reasonable best efforts to dispose of the REO Property as soon as possible and shall sell such REO Property in any event within two (2) years after title has been taken to such REO Property, unless the Servicer determines, and gives an appropriate notice to the Owner to such effect, that a longer period is necessary for the orderly liquidation of such REO Property. If a longer period than one (1) year is permitted under the foregoing sentence and is necessary to sell any REO Property, the Servicer shall report monthly to the Owner as to the progress being made in selling such REO Property. No REO Property shall be marketed for less than the Appraised Value, without the prior consent of Owner. No REO Property shall be sold for less than ninety-five percent (95%) of its Appraised Value, without the prior consent of Owner. If as of the date title to any REO Property was acquired by or on behalf of the Owner there were outstanding unreimbursed Servicing Advances with respect to the REO Property, the Servicer shall be entitled to immediate reimbursement from the Owner for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances. All requests for reimbursement of Servicing Advances shall be in accordance with the Xxxxxx Mae Guide. The disposition of REO Property shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price, and upon such terms and conditions, as the Servicer deems to be in the best interests of the Owner. Servicer shall provide monthly reports to Owner in reference to the status of the marketing of the REO Properties.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Owner may, at the Owner’s sole option, terminate the Servicer as servicer of any such REO Property without payment of any termination fee with respect thereto, provided that the Servicer shall on the date said termination takes effect be reimbursed by withdrawal from the Custodial Account for any unreimbursed advances of the Servicer’s funds made pursuant to Section 5.03 and any unreimbursed Servicing Advances in each case relating to the Mortgage Loan underlying such REO Property notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 4.05. In the event of any such termination, the provisions of Section 11.01 hereof shall apply to said termination and the transfer of servicing responsibilities with respect to such REO Property to the Owner or its designee.

Section 4.14 Notification of Maturity Date.

With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall execute and deliver to the Mortgagor any and all necessary notices required under applicable law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage regarding the maturity date if required under applicable law.

Section 4.15 Notification of Adjustments.

With respect to each ARM Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall adjust the Mortgage Interest Rate on the related Adjustment Date and shall adjust the Monthly Payment on the related Payment Adjustment Date in compliance with the requirements of applicable law and the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note. If, pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Note, another index is selected for determining the Mortgage Interest Rate because the original index is no longer available, the same index will be used with respect to each Mortgage Note which requires a new index to be selected, provided that such selection does not conflict with the terms of the related Mortgage Note. The Servicer shall execute and deliver any and all necessary notices required under applicable law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage regarding the Mortgage Interest Rate and the Monthly Payment adjustments. The Servicer shall promptly, upon written request therefor, deliver to the Owner such notifications and any additional applicable data regarding such adjustments and the methods used to calculate and implement such adjustments. Upon the discovery by the Servicer or the Owner that the Servicer has failed to adjust a Mortgage Interest Rate or a Monthly Payment pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage, the Servicer shall immediately deposit in the Custodial Account, from its own funds, the amount of any interest loss caused the Owner thereby without reimbursement therefor.

Section 4.16 Prepayment Penalties.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a Principal Prepayment, the Servicer may not waive any Prepayment Penalty or portion thereof required by the terms of the related Mortgage Note unless (i) the related Mortgage Loan is in default and such waiver would, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Penalty and the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) (A) the enforceability thereof is limited (1) by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership, or other similar law relating to creditor’s rights generally or (2) due to acceleration in connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment, or (B) the enforceability is otherwise limited or prohibited by applicable law, (iii) the enforceability would be considered “predatory” pursuant to written guidelines issued by any applicable federal, state or local authority having jurisdiction over such matters, (iv) the Servicer is unable to locate documentation sufficient to allow it to confirm the existence and amount of such Prepayment Penalty after using commercially reasonable efforts to locate such documentation, which efforts shall include seeking such documentation from the Owner and the Custodian and from its own records or files or (v) shall have received the prior written consent of the Owner. If the Servicer has waived all or a portion of a Prepayment Penalty relating to a Principal Prepayment, other than as provided above and except with respect to any Mortgage Loan which the Owner, its designee or the related Originator has not identified as requiring a Prepayment Penalty, the Servicer shall deliver to the Owner no later than the next succeeding Remittance Date the amount of such Prepayment Penalty (or such portion thereof as had been waived) for distribution in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and if the Servicer fails to deliver such amount the Owner may enforce such obligation. If the Servicer has waived all or a portion of a Prepayment Penalty for any reason, it shall notify the Owner and shall include such information in the monthly report which it provides the Owner. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event the Prepayment Penalty payable under the terms of the related Mortgage Note is less than the amount of the Prepayment Penalty set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule or other information provided to the Servicer, the Servicer shall not have any liability or obligation with respect to such difference.

This Section 4.16 shall be effective as of the date of this Agreement with respect to all Mortgage Loans subject to the Purchase Agreement after the date of this Agreement, or, with respect to all Mortgage Loans subject to the Purchase Agreement before the date of this Agreement, as of the date the Owner, its designee or the related Originator provides to the Servicer information identifying the Mortgage Loans which require Prepayment Penalties.

PAYMENTS TO THE OWNER

Section 5.01 Distributions.

On each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall distribute by wire transfer to the Owner (i) all amounts credited to the Custodial Account as of the close of business on the preceding Determination Date, net of charges against or withdrawals from the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.05, plus (ii) all Monthly Advances, if any, which the Servicer is obligated to distribute pursuant to Section 5.03, plus (iii) any Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount, provided that the Servicer’s obligation as to payment of such amount shall be limited to the Servicing Fee earned during the month of the distribution less (iv) any amounts attributable to Monthly Payments collected but due on a Due Date or Dates subsequent to the preceding Determination Date, which amounts shall be remitted on the Remittance Date next succeeding the Due Period for such amounts, and any Principal Prepayments received during the month of such Remittance Date, which amounts shall be remitted on the next succeeding Remittance Date. It is understood that, by operation of Section 4.04, the remittance on the first Remittance Date is to include principal collected after the related Cut-off Date through the preceding Determination Date plus interest, at the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate collected through such Determination Date exclusive of any portion thereof allocable to the period prior to the Cut-off Date, with the adjustments specified in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above.

With respect to any remittance received by the Owner after the Business Day on which such payment was due, the Servicer shall pay to the Owner interest on any such late payment at an annual rate equal to the Prime Rate, adjusted as of the date of each change, plus one (1) percentage point, but in no event greater than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Such interest shall be deposited in the Custodial Account by the Servicer on the date such late payment is made and shall cover the period commencing with the day following the Business Day on which such payment was due and ending with the Business Day on which such payment is made, both inclusive. Such interest shall be remitted along with the distribution payable on the next succeeding Remittance Date.

The Servicer shall furnish to Owner an individual loan accounting report, as of the close of business on the last Business Day of each month, in the Servicer's assigned loan number order to document Mortgage Loan payment activity on an individual Mortgage Loan basis. With respect to each month, the corresponding individual loan accounting report shall be received by the Owner no later than the fifth (5^th) Business Day of the month of the corresponding Remittance Date on a disk or tape or other computer-readable format in such format as may be mutually agreed upon by both Owner and Servicer, and no later than the seventh (7^th) Business Day of the month of the corresponding Remittance Date in hard copy, which report, in hard copy, shall contain the following:

(v) the aggregate of any expenses and losses reimbursed to the Servicer as servicer during the prior distribution period pursuant to Section 4.05; and

The Servicer shall prepare and file any and all information statements or other filings required to be delivered to any governmental taxing authority or to Owner pursuant to any applicable law with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, the Servicer shall provide Owner with such information concerning the Mortgage Loans as is necessary for Owner to prepare its federal income tax return as Owner may reasonably request from time to time.

In addition, not more than sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar year, the Servicer shall furnish to each Person who was an Owner at any time during such calendar year an annual statement in accordance with the requirements of applicable federal income tax law as to the aggregate of remittances for the applicable portion of such year.

ARTICLE VI

GENERAL SERVICING PROCEDURES

Section 6.01 Assumption Agreements.

The Servicer will, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or prospective conveyance by any Mortgagor of the Mortgaged Property (whether by absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor remains or is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the Mortgage), exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under any "due-on-sale" clause to the extent permitted by law; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law or the terms of the Mortgage Note from doing so or if the exercise of such rights would impair or threaten to impair any recovery under the related Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if any. If the Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such "due-on-sale" clause, the Servicer, with the approval of the Owner (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), will enter into an assumption agreement with the person to whom the Mortgaged Property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted by applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. Where an assumption is allowed pursuant to this Section 6.01, the Servicer, with the prior consent of the Owner and the primary mortgage insurer, if any, is authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with the person to whom the Mortgaged Property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed pursuant to which the original mortgagor is released from liability and such Person is substituted as mortgagor and becomes liable under the related Mortgage Note. Any such substitution of liability agreement shall be in lieu of an assumption agreement. Owner shall be deemed to have consented to any assumption for which Owner was given notification and requested to consent, but for which neither a consent nor an objection was given by Owner within two (2) Business Days of such notification.

In connection with any such assumption or substitution of liability, the Servicer shall follow the underwriting practices and procedures of the Xxxxxx Mae Guide. With respect to an assumption or substitution of liability, the Mortgage Interest Rate borne by the related Mortgage Note, the Lifetime Rate Cap, the Initial Rate Cap, the Periodic Rate Cap, the Gross Margin and the amount of the Monthly Payment and the maturity date may not be changed. If the credit of the proposed transferee does not meet such underwriting criteria, the Servicer diligently shall, to the extent permitted by the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and by applicable law, accelerate the maturity of the Mortgage Loan. The Servicer shall notify the Owner that any such substitution of liability or assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Owner the original of any such substitution of liability or assumption agreement, which document shall be added to the related Servicing File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such Servicing File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof. All fees collected by the Servicer for entering into an assumption or substitution of liability agreement shall belong to the Servicer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraphs of this Section or any other provision of this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or any assumption which the Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever. For purposes of this Section 6.01, the term "assumption" is deemed to also include a sale of the Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability agreement.

Section 6.02 Satisfaction of Mortgages and Release of Servicing Files.

Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Servicer will immediately notify the Owner by a certification of a Servicing Officer, which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.04 have been or will be so deposited and shall request delivery to it of the Mortgage Loan Documents held by the Owner or its designee. The Owner shall no later than five (5) Business Days after receipt of such certification and request, release or cause to be released to the Servicer, the related Mortgage Loan Documents and, upon its receipt of such documents, the Servicer shall promptly prepare and deliver to the Owner and execute the requisite satisfaction or release. No later than three (3) Business Days following its receipt of such satisfaction or release, the Owner shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Servicer the release or satisfaction properly executed by the owner of record of the applicable Mortgage or its duly appointed attorney in fact. No expense incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Custodial Account.

In the event the Servicer satisfies or releases a Mortgage without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or should it otherwise prejudice any right the Owner may have under the mortgage instruments, the Servicer shall remit within two (2) Business Days to the Owner the then outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan by deposit thereof in the Custodial Account. The Servicer shall maintain the Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions insurance insuring the Servicer against any loss it may sustain with respect to any Mortgage Loan not satisfied in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.

From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of the Mortgage Loan, including for the purpose of collection under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, the Owner or its designee shall, upon request of the Servicer and delivery to the Owner or its designee of a servicing receipt signed by a Servicing Officer, release the portion of the Servicing File held by the Owner or its designee to the Servicer. Such servicing receipt shall obligate the Servicer to return the related Mortgage Loan Documents to the Owner or its designee when the need therefor by the Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Custodial Account or the Servicing 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 Servicer has delivered to the Owner a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which such Servicing File or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery. Upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer stating that such Mortgage Loan was liquidated, the servicing receipt shall be released by the Owner to the Servicer.

Section 6.03 Servicing Compensation.

As compensation for its services hereunder, the Servicer shall be entitled to withdraw from the Custodial Account (to the extent of interest payments collected on the Mortgage Loans) or to retain from interest payments on the Mortgage Loans the amounts provided for as the Servicer's Servicing Fee, subject to payment of compensating interest on Principal Prepayments as capped by the Servicing Fee pursuant to Section 5.01(iii). Additional servicing compensation in the form of income and other benefits derived from escrow and custodial accounts assumption fees, as provided in Section 6.01, late payment charges and other similar ancillary fees or otherwise shall be retained by the Servicer to the extent not required to be deposited in the Custodial Account. The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided for herein. Prepayment Penalties shall be the property of the Owner and may not be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation.

Section 6.04 Annual Statement as to Compliance.

(a) The Servicer will use its best efforts to deliver to the Owner, not later than the earlier of (a) March 15 of each calendar year (other than the calendar year during which the Transfer Date occurs) or (b) with respect to any calendar year during which the Depositor’s annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission, fifteen (15) calendar days before the date on which the Depositor’s annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission (or, in each case, if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), an Officers' Certificate stating, as to each signatory thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding calendar year and of performance under this Agreement has been made under such officers' supervision, and (ii) to the best of such officers' knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officers and the nature and status thereof. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Servicer to the Owner upon request.

(b) The Servicer will use its best efforts to deliver to the Owner, with respect to any Mortgage Loans that are subject to a Securitization or other securitization transaction, not later than the earlier of (a) March 15 of each calendar year (other than the calendar year during which the Transfer Date occurs) or (b) with respect to any calendar year during which the depositor’s annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the commission, fifteen (15) calendar days before the date on which the depositor’s annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission (or, in each case, if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), an officer of the Servicer shall execute and deliver an Officer’s Certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I to the person who provides certification required under the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 in connection with such a Securitization or other securitization transaction for the benefit of such person and its officers, directors and affiliates.

(c) The Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Master Servicer and the Sarbanes Certifying Party (any such person, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon a breach by the Servicer of its obligations under this Section 6.04, or the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Servicer in connection therewith. If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless any Indemnified Party, then the Servicer agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Indemnified Party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Party on the one hand and the Servicer in the other in connection with a breach of the Servicer’s obligations under this Section 6.04, or the Servicer’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith.

(d) It is acknowledged and agreed that each Master Servicer and the Sarbanes Certifying Party shall be an express third party beneficiary of the provisions of this Section 6.04, and shall be entitled independently to enforce the provisions of this Section 6.04 with respect to any obligations owed to such entity as if it were a direct party to this Agreement.

Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Servicer to the Owner.

The Servicer shall provide to the Owner and any supervisory agents or examiners representing a state or federal governmental agency having jurisdiction over the Owner, including but not limited to OTS, FDIC and other similar entities, access to any documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans in the possession of the Servicer which may be required by any applicable regulations. Such access shall be afforded without charge, upon reasonable request, during normal business hours and at the offices of the Servicer, and in accordance with the federal government, FDIC, OTS, or any other similar regulations.

Section 6.08

(i) any failure by the Servicer to remit to the Owner any payment required to be made under the terms of this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of two (2) Business Days after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Owner or the date upon which such non-payment is discovered by Servicer; or

(ii) failure on the part of the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days (except that such number of days shall be fifteen (15) in the case of a failure to pay any premium for any insurance policy required to be maintained under this Agreement) after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Owner; or

(viii) the Servicer ceases to be (a) licensed to service first lien residential mortgage loans in each jurisdiction in which a Mortgaged Property is located and such licensing is required, and (b) qualified to transact business in any jurisdiction where it is currently so qualified, but only to the extent such non-qualification materially and adversely affects the Servicer's ability to perform its obligations hereunder; or

then, and in each and every such case, so long as an Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Owner, by notice in writing to the Servicer may, in addition to whatever rights the Owner may have under Sections 3.02 and 8.01 and at law or equity or to damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance, terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof without compensating the Servicer for the same. On or after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the successor appointed pursuant to Section 11.01. Upon written request from the Owner, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver, any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor's possession all Servicing Files, and 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, at the Servicer's sole expense. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Owner and such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer's responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to such successor for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited by the Servicer to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans or any REO Property.

Section 9.02 Waiver of Defaults.

The Owner may waive only by written notice any default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been 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 in writing.

(i) to cooperate fully with the Owner and any prospective Owner with respect to all reasonable requests and reasonable due diligence procedures including participating in meetings with rating agencies, bond insurers and such other parties as the Owner shall designate and participating in meetings with prospective Owners of the Mortgage Loans or interests therein and providing information reasonably requested by such Owners;

(ii) to execute all agreements required to be executed by the Servicer in connection with such Whole Loan Transfer, Agency Transfer or Pass-Through Transfer provided that such agreements will not contain any greater obligations on the part of Servicer as are contained in this Agreement and Servicer is given an opportunity to review and reasonably negotiate in good faith the content of such documents;

(iii) to deliver to the Owner and to any Person designated by the Owner for inclusion in any prospectus or other offering material such publicly available information regarding the Servicer, its financial condition and its mortgage loan delinquency, foreclosure experience and any additional information reasonably requested by the Owner, and to indemnify the Owner and its affiliates for material misstatements contained in such information, and to deliver such statements and audit letters of reputable, certified public accountants pertaining to information provided by the Servicer as shall be reasonably requested by the Owner;

(iv) to deliver to the Owner, and to any Person designated by the Owner, such in-house opinions of counsel in a form reasonably acceptable to the Owner as are customarily delivered by servicers and reasonably determined by the Owner to be necessary in connection with Whole Loan Transfers, Agency Transfers or Pass-Through Transfers; and

(v) the third party costs incurred by Servicer in connection with compliance with this Section 11.01, including but not limited to the costs of opinions of outside special counsel that may be required for a Whole Loan Transfer, Agency Transfer or Pass-Through Transfer, shall be the responsibility of the Owner.

(c)

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, in connection with the effectiveness of final rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission related to asset-backed securities (Release Nos. 33-8518; 34-5095) (as such rules may be amended or modified from time to time, the “ABS Rules”), the Servicer shall cooperate with the Owner in providing such other statements and reports as mutually agreed to by the Servicer and the Owner and as are required by and in conformance with the ABS Rules.

Section 11.02 Transfer of Servicing Following Securitization.

Following a Securitization of Mortgage Loans, in the event the Owner or its designee (which may include the master servicer, trustee, insurer, guarantor or certificateholders) without cause causes the Servicer at any time under any Securitization agreement to transfer the servicing responsibilities and duties with respect to some or all of the Mortgage Loans serviced thereunder to the Owner or any designee of the Owner; the Owner shall provide the Servicer with 30 days prior written notice and shall pay to the Servicer as liquidated damages, the sum set forth in Section 10.02, provided further that such transfer shall, if required under the applicable Securitization agreement, be subject to the approval of the trustee, master servicer or Rating Agency with respect to Pass-Though Transfers or any relevant third party purchaser with respect to Whole Loan Transfers. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Owner in such transfer of servicing responsibilities and shall comply with the termination procedures set forth in Section 9.01 and 12.01 hereof.

Section 11.03 Owner’s Repurchase and Indemnification Obligations.

Upon receipt by the Servicer of notice from a trustee or other third party of a breach by the Owner of a representation or warranty contained in any Securitization agreement or Pass-Through Transfer agreement, or from a third party purchaser pursuant to a Whole Loan Transfer, the Servicer shall promptly notify the Owner of same and shall, at the direction of the Owner, use its best efforts to cure and correct any such breach and to satisfy the requests or concerns of the trustee or third party purchaser related to such deficiencies of the related Mortgage Loans transferred to the trustee or other such third party purchaser.

The Owner shall repurchase from the Servicer any Mortgage Loan transferred to a trustee pursuant to an Agency Transfer with respect to which the Servicer has been required by the trustee to repurchase due to a breach of a representation or warranty made by the Owner with respect to the Mortgage Loans, or the servicing thereof prior to the related Transfer Date to the trustee and not due to a breach of the Servicer’s obligations thereunder or pursuant to this Agreement. The repurchase price to be paid by the Owner to the Servicer shall equal that repurchase price paid by the Servicer to the trustee plus all reasonable costs and expenses borne by the Servicer in connection with the cure of said breach of a representation or warranty made by the Owner and in connection with the repurchase of such Mortgage Loan from the trustee, including, but not limited to, reasonable and necessary attorneys’ fees.

At the time of repurchase, the Custodian and the Servicer shall arrange for the reassignment of the repurchased Mortgage Loan to the Owner according to the Owner’s instructions and the delivery to the Custodian of any documents held by the trustee or other relevant third party purchaser with respect to the repurchased Mortgage Loan pursuant to the related Securitization agreement. If the repurchased Mortgage Loan is a MERS Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall cause MERS to designate on the MERS System the Owner as the beneficial holder with respect to such Mortgage Loan. In the event of a repurchase, the Servicer shall, simultaneously with such reassignment, amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the addition of the repurchased Mortgage Loan to this Agreement. In connection with any such addition, the Servicer and the Owner shall be deemed to have made as to such repurchased Mortgage Loan the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement except that all such representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall be deemed made as of the date of such repurchase.

ARTICLE XII

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Section 12.01 Successor to the Servicer.

Prior to termination of Servicer's responsibilities and duties under this Agreement pursuant to Sections 4.13, 8.04, 9.01, 10.01, 10.02 or 11.02, the Owner shall (i) succeed to and assume all of the Servicer's responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) appoint a successor having the characteristics set forth in Section 8.02 hereof and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement prior to the termination of Servicer's responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Owner may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as the Owner and such successor shall agree. In the event that the Servicer's duties, responsibilities and liabilities under this Agreement should be terminated pursuant to the aforementioned Sections, the Servicer shall discharge such duties and responsibilities during the period from the date it acquires knowledge of such termination until the effective date thereof with the same degree of diligence and prudence which it is obligated to exercise under this Agreement, and shall take no action whatsoever that might impair or prejudice the rights or financial condition of its successor. The resignation or removal of Servicer pursuant to the aforementioned Sections shall not become effective until a successor shall be appointed pursuant to this Section and shall in no event relieve the Servicer of the representations and warranties made pursuant to Sections 3.01 and 3.02 and the remedies available to the Owner thereunder and under Section 8.01, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of such Sections 3.01, 3.02 and 8.01 shall be applicable to the Servicer notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of the Servicer, or the termination of this Agreement.

Any successor appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Servicer and to the Owner an instrument accepting such appointment, whereupon such successor shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Servicer, with like effect as if originally named as a party to this Agreement. Any termination or resignation of the Servicer or this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.13, 8.04, 9.01, 10.01, 10.02, or 11.02 shall not affect any claims that the Owner may have against the Servicer arising prior to any such termination or resignation.

The Servicer shall promptly deliver to the successor the funds in the Custodial Account and the Escrow Account and the Servicing Files and related documents and statements held by it hereunder and the Servicer shall account for all funds. The Servicer shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things all as may reasonably be required to more fully and definitely vest and confirm in the successor all such rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Servicer. The successor shall make arrangements as it may deem appropriate to reimburse the Servicer for unrecovered Servicing Advances which the successor retains hereunder and which would otherwise have been recovered by the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement but for the appointment of the successor servicer.

Upon a successor's acceptance of appointment as such, the Servicer shall notify by mail the Owner of such appointment.

Section 12.04 Governing Law.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York except to the extent preempted by federal law, without giving effect to choice of law principles.

In addition, confidential information may be provided to a regulatory authority with supervisory power over Owner, provided such information is identified as confidential non-public information.

Until the date that the Owner is the owner of the Mortgage Loans, the Owner agrees that it will keep confidential any nonpublic personal information which it receives from Servicer in connection with the related Trade Confirmation and in connection with its due diligence of the Mortgage Loans, except as required to perform its obligations in accordance with this Agreement, the related Trade Confirmation or the related Acknowledgement Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that promotions undertaken by the Servicer or any affiliate of the Servicer which are directed to the general public at large, or segments thereof, provided that no segment shall consist primarily of the Mortgage Loans, including, without limitation, mass mailing based on commercially acquired mailing lists, newspaper, radio and television advertisements shall not constitute solicitation under this Section 12.16. This Section 12.16 shall not be deemed to preclude the Servicer or any of its affiliates from soliciting any Mortgagor for any other financial products or services. In addition, Servicer shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to prevent the sale of the name of any Mortgagor to any Person who is not an affiliate of Servicer and who Servicer knows will solicit the Mortgagor for refinance.

The Assignee warrants and represents to, and covenants with, the Assignor and the Servicer that:
