Section

of Servicing Files.
The
Subservicer shall maintain a Servicing File consisting of all documents
necessary to service the Mortgage Loans. The possession of each Servicing
File
by the Subservicer is for the sole purpose of servicing the related Mortgage
Loan, and such retention and possession by the Subservicer is in a custodial
capacity only. The Subservicer acknowledges that the ownership of each
Mortgage
Loan is vested in the Company. All rights arising out of the Mortgage
Loans
including all funds received on or in connection with the Mortgage Loans
and all
records or documents with respect to the Mortgage Loans prepared by or
which
come into the possession of the Subservicer shall be received and held
by the
Subservicer for the sole purpose of servicing the Mortgage Loans and
such
retention and possession by the Subservicer is in a custodial capacity
only in
trust for the exclusive benefit of the Company as the Company of the
related
Mortgage Loans. Any portion of the related Servicing Files retained by
the
Subservicer shall be appropriately identified in the Subservicer’s computer
system to reflect clearly the ownership of the related Mortgage Loans
by the
Company. The Subservicer shall release its custody of the contents of
the
related Servicing Files only in accordance with written instructions
of the
Company, except when such release is required as incidental to the Subservicer’s
servicing of the Mortgage Loans, such written instructions shall not
be
required.
Section

The

with
Accepted Servicing Practices, reasonable evidence of compliance with
all
federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations, as applicable,

provisions of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended,
to the
Mortgaged Property, documentation evidencing insurance coverage and eligibility
of any condominium project for approval by Xxxxxx Xxx and periodic inspection
reports as required by Section 4.13. To the extent that original documents
are
not required for purposes of realization of Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance
Proceeds, documents maintained by the Subservicer may be in the form
of
microfilm or microfiche or such other reliable means of recreating original
documents, including optical imagery techniques so long as the Subservicer
complies in all material respects with the requirements of the Xxxxxx

Section

of Mortgage Loans.
No
transfer of a Mortgage Loan may be made unless such transfer is in compliance
with the terms hereof. For the purposes of this Agreement, the Subservicer
shall
be under no obligation to deal with any Person with respect to this Agreement
or
any Mortgage Loan unless a notice of the transfer of such Mortgage Loan
has been
delivered to the Subservicer in accordance with this Section 2.04 and
the
requirements for such transfer set forth in Sections 10.02 and 11.10
have been
satisfied, as the case may be. Upon receipt of notice of the permitted
transfer,
the Subservicer shall xxxx its books and records to reflect such assignee’s
ownership of the related Mortgage Loans, and the previous owner shall
be deemed
released from its obligations hereunder with respect to such Mortgage
Loans from
and after the date of such sale or transfer without the necessity of
any action
on the part of the Subservicer (except that Articles III and VIII and
Sections
11.03 and 11.04 shall survive such transfer).
Section
2.05 Delivery
of Mortgage Loan Documents.
The

documents evidencing an assumption, modification, consolidation or extension
of
any Mortgage Loan entered into in accordance with Section 4.01 or 6.01
promptly
after their execution; provided, however, that the Subservicer shall
provide the
Custodian on behalf of the Company with a certified true copy of any
such
document submitted for recordation promptly after its execution, and
shall
provide the original of any document submitted for recordation or a copy
of such
document certified by the appropriate public recording office to be a
true and
complete copy of the original promptly after receipt thereof, but in
no event
later than 240 days after its execution, provided, however, that if delivery
is
not completed within 240 days solely due to delays in making such delivery
by
reason of the fact that such documents shall not have been returned by
the
appropriate recording office, the Subservicer shall continue to use its
reasonable best efforts to obtain such documents and effect delivery
as soon as
possible after its receipt thereof.
From
time
to time the Subservicer may have a need for Mortgage Loan Documents to
be
released by the Custodian. If the Subservicer shall require any of the
Mortgage
Loan Documents, the Subservicer shall notify the Custodian in writing
of such
request in the form of request for release attached hereto as Exhibit
I. During
the time that any such documentation is held by the Subservicer, such
possession
is in trust for the benefit of the Company, and the Subservicer shall
return
such documentation to the Custodian upon the request of the Company or
when the
Subservicer’s need therefore no longer exists.

ARTICLE
IV
ADMINISTRATION
AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section
4.01 Subservicer
to Act as Subservicer.
The
Subservicer, as independent contract servicer, shall service and administer
the
Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and with Accepted Servicing
Practices, 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 Subservicer may deem necessary or desirable
and
consistent with the terms of this Agreement and with Accepted Servicing
Practices. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement (and to the
extent
consistent with the terms of this Agreement and Accepted Servicing Practices),
the Subservicer shall service the Mortgage Loans in compliance with the
servicing provisions of the Xxxxxx Xxx Guide, including provisions regarding
the
liquidation of Mortgage Loans, the collection of Mortgage Loan payments,
the
payment of taxes, insurance and other charges, the maintenance of title
insurance, hazard insurance, flood insurance, Primary Mortgage Insurance
Policies, a Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions insurance, all such
coverage
to be maintained with a Qualified Insurer, inspections, the restoration
of
Mortgaged Property, all such coverage to be maintained insurance claims,
management 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 Company and the Subservicer. The Company shall, at the request of
Subservicer, deliver powers-of-attorney to the Subservicer sufficient
to allow
the Subservicer as servicer to execute all documentation requiring execution
on
behalf of the Company with respect to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans,
including satisfactions, partial releases, modifications and foreclosure
documentation or, in the alternative, shall as promptly as reasonably
feasible,
execute and return such documentation to the Subservicer.
Consistent
with the terms of this Agreement, the Subservicer 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 Subservicer’s reasonable
and prudent determination such waiver, modification, postponement or
indulgence
is not materially adverse to the Company; provided, however, that unless
the
Subservicer has obtained the prior written consent of the Company, the
Subservicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage
Loan
that would change the Mortgage Interest Rate, forgive the payment of
principal
or interest, reduce or increase the outstanding principal balance (except
for
actual payments of principal) or change the final maturity date on such
Mortgage
Loan. In the event of any such modification which has been agreed to
in writing
by the Company and which permits the deferral of interest or principal
payments
on any Mortgage Loan, the Subservicer shall, on the Business Day immediately
preceding the related Remittance Date in any month in which any such
principal
or interest payment has been deferred, deposit in the Protected Account
from its
own funds, in accordance with Section 4.04 and Section 5.03, the difference
between (a) such month’s principal and one month’s interest at the related
Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate on the unpaid principal balance of such
Mortgage
Loan and (b) the amount paid by the Mortgagor. The Subservicer 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
Subservicer 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 Subservicer 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 Company and, if required, by the Primary
Mortgage
Insurance Policy insurer.
17
Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if a REMIC election is made
and the
Mortgage Loans and REO Properties are the sole property of such REMIC,
the
Subservicer shall not (unless the related Mortgagor is in default with
respect
to the Mortgage Loan or such default is, in the judgment of the Subservicer,
reasonably foreseeable) make or permit any modification, waiver or amendment
of
any term of any Mortgage Loan that would both (i) effect an exchange
or
reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under Section 1001 of the Code (or Treasury
regulations promulgated thereunder) and (ii) cause the related REMIC
to fail to
qualify as a REMIC under the Code or the imposition of any tax on “prohibited
transactions” or “contributions” after the “startup date” of such REMIC under
the REMIC Provisions.
The
Subservicer shall perform all of its servicing responsibilities hereunder
or may
cause a Reg AB Subservicer or Reg AB Subcontractor to perform any such
servicing
responsibilities on its behalf, but the use by the Subservicer of a Reg
AB
Subservicer or Reg AB Subcontractor shall not release the Subservicer
from any
of its obligations hereunder and the Subservicer shall remain responsible
hereunder for all acts and omissions of each Reg AB Subservicer or Reg
AB
Subcontractor as fully as if such acts and omissions were those of the
Subservicer. Any such Reg AB Subservicer or Reg AB Subcontractor must
be a
Xxxxxx Xxx approved seller/servicer or a Xxxxxxx Mac approved seller/servicer
in
good standing and no event shall have occurred, including but not limited
to, a
change in insurance coverage, which would make it unable to comply with
the
eligibility requirements for seller/servicers imposed by Xxxxxx Xxx or
Xxxxxxx
Mac, or which would require notification to Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac.
The
Subservicer shall pay all fees and expenses of each Reg AB Subservicer
or Reg AB
Subcontractor from its own funds, and a Reg AB Subservicer’s or Reg AB
Subcontractor’s fee shall not exceed the Servicing Fee.
At
the
cost and expense of the Subservicer, without any right of reimbursement
from the
Protected Account, the Subservicer shall be entitled to terminate the
rights and
responsibilities of a Reg AB Subservicer or Reg AB Subcontractor and
arrange for
any servicing responsibilities to be performed by a successor Reg AB
Subservicer
or Reg AB Subcontractor meeting the requirements in the preceding paragraph;
provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prevent
or
prohibit the Subservicer, at the Subservicer’s option, from electing to service
the related Mortgage Loans itself. In the event that the Subservicer’s
responsibilities and duties under this Agreement are terminated pursuant
to
Section 8.04, 9.01 or 10.01, and if requested to do so by the Company,
the
Subservicer shall at its own cost and expense terminate the rights and
responsibilities of each Reg AB Subservicer or Reg AB Subcontractor effective
as
of the date of termination of the Subservicer. The Subservicer shall
pay all
fees, expenses or penalties necessary in order to terminate the rights
and
responsibilities of each Reg AB Subservicer or Reg AB Subcontractor from
the
Subservicer’s own funds without reimbursement from the Company.
18
Notwithstanding
any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements
between the Subservicer and a Reg AB Subservicer or Reg AB Subcontractor
or any
reference herein to actions taken through a Reg AB Subservicer or Reg
AB
Subcontractor or otherwise, the Subservicer shall not be relieved of
its
obligations to the Company 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 Subservicer shall be entitled to enter into an
agreement
with a Reg AB Subservicer or Reg AB Subcontractor for indemnification
of the
Subservicer by the Reg AB Subservicer or Reg AB Subcontractor and nothing
contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such
indemnification.
Any
subservicing agreement and any other transactions or services relating
to the
Mortgage Loans involving a Reg AB Subservicer or Reg AB Subcontractor
shall be
deemed to be between such Reg AB Subservicer or Reg AB Subcontractor
and
Subservicer alone, and the Company shall have no obligations, duties
or
liabilities with respect to such Subservicer including no obligation,
duty or
liability of Company to pay such Reg AB Subservicer’s or Reg AB Subcontractor’s
fees and expenses. For purposes of distributions and advances by the
Subservicer
pursuant to this Agreement, the Subservicer shall be deemed to have received
a
payment on a Mortgage Loan when a Reg AB Subservicer or Reg AB Subcontractor
has
received such payment.
Section
4.02 Collection
of Mortgage Loan Payments.
Continuously
from the date hereof until the date each Mortgage Loan ceases to be subject
to
this Agreement, the Subservicer shall proceed with reasonable diligence
and in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, to collect all payments
due under
each Mortgage Loan when the same shall become due and payable. Further,
the
Subservicer shall take reasonable care in ascertaining and estimating
annual
ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, fire and hazard insurance
premiums, mortgage insurance premiums, and all other charges that, as
provided
in the Mortgage Loan Documents, will become due and payable to the end
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.
19
The
Subservicer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent
with
Accepted Servicing Practices, to either (i) foreclose upon, repossess 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 or (ii) as an alternative to foreclosure, sell
such
defaulted Mortgage Loans at fair market value to third-parties, if the
Subservicer reasonably believes that such sale would maximize proceeds
to the
Company (on a present value basis) with respect to those Mortgage Loans.
Foreclosure or comparable proceedings shall be initiated within ninety
(90) days
of default for Mortgaged Properties for which no satisfactory arrangements
can
be made for collection of delinquent payments, subject to state and federal
law
and regulation. The Subservicer shall use its reasonable efforts to realize
upon
defaulted Mortgage Loans in such manner as will maximize the receipt
of
principal and interest by the Company, taking into account, among other
things,
the timing of foreclosure proceedings. The Subservicer shall notify the
Company
of its intent to commence foreclosure proceedings with respect to any
Mortgage
Loan. The foregoing is subject to the provisions that, in any case in
which any
Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage, the Subservicer 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 Company after
reimbursement to itself for such expenses, and (ii) that such expenses
will be
recoverable by the Subservicer through Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation
Proceeds from the related Mortgaged Property, as contemplated in Section
4.05.
The Subservicer shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred
by it
in any such proceedings or functions as Servicing Advances; provided,
however,
that it shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor as provided in Section
4.05.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in connection
with a
foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, in the event
the
Subservicer has reasonable cause to believe that a Mortgaged Property
is
contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, or if the Company
otherwise requests an environmental inspection or review of such Mortgaged
Property, such an inspection or review is to be conducted by a qualified
inspector. Upon completion of the inspection, the Subservicer shall promptly
provide the Company with a written report of the environmental inspection.
After
reviewing the environmental inspection report, the Company shall direct
the
Subservicer as to how the Subservicer shall proceed with respect to the
Mortgaged Property, and the Subservicer shall follow the Company’s directions
with respect thereto.
Section
4.04 Establishment
of Protected Accounts; Deposits in Protected Accounts.
The
Subservicer 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 Protected Accounts.
Any
funds in a Protected Account may be invested, but only in Permitted Investments
for the benefit of the Company (with any income earned thereon for the
benefit
of the Subservicer). Funds deposited in the Protected Account may be
drawn on by
the Subservicer only in accordance with Section 4.05. The creation of
any
Protected Account shall be evidenced by an account certification in the
form
shown in Exhibit B hereto. The original of such account certification
shall be
furnished to the Company upon reasonable request. The Subservicer acknowledges
and agrees that the Subservicer shall bear any losses incurred with respect
to
Permitted Investments. The amount of any such losses shall be immediately
deposited by the Subservicer in the Protected Account, out of the Subservicer’s
own funds, with no right to reimbursement therefor.
The
Subservicer shall deposit in the Protected Account within two (2) Business
Days
of Subservicer's receipt, and retain therein, the following
collections:
20
(i) all
payments on account of principal, including Principal Prepayments on
the
Mortgage Loans and all Prepayment Charges;
(ii) all
payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans adjusted to the
related
Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate;
(iii) all
Liquidation Proceeds;
(iv) any
net
amounts received by the Subservicer 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 Accepted Servicing Practices,
the
Mortgage Loan Documents or applicable law or otherwise held in a suspense
account by Subservicer;
(vi) all
Condemnation Proceeds affecting any Mortgaged Property 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 Accepted
Servicing Practices, the Mortgage Loan Documents or applicable law;
(vii) any
Monthly Advances as provided in Section 5.03;
(viii) any
amounts required to be deposited in the Protected Account pursuant to
Sections
4.01, 4.14, 6.01 and 6.02; and
(ix) with
respect to each Full Principal Prepayment or Partial Principal Prepayment,
any
Prepayment Interest Shortfall, to the extent of the Subservicer’s aggregate
Servicing Fee received with respect to the related Due Period.
The
foregoing requirements for deposit in the Protected 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
Subservicer in the Protected Account.
Section
4.05 Permitted
Withdrawals From the Protected Account.
The
Subservicer may, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Protected
Account
for the following purposes:
(i) to
make
payments to the Company in the amounts and in the manner provided for
in Section
5.01;
(ii) to
reimburse itself for Monthly Advances, the Subservicer’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 Fees) of principal and/or interest respecting which any such
Monthly
Advance was made;
21
(iii) to
reimburse itself for unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances,
the
Subservicer’s right to reimburse itself pursuant to this subclause (iii) with
respect to any Mortgage Loan being limited to Liquidation Proceeds, Condemnation
Proceeds, and Insurance Proceeds and REO Disposition Proceeds related
to such
Mortgage Loan;
(iv) to
pay to
itself as servicing compensation (a) any interest earned on funds in
the
Protected Account (all such interest to be withdrawn monthly not later
than each
Remittance Date) and (b) any Servicing Fee to which the Subservicer is
entitled
in accordance with the terms hereof to the extent such Servicing Fee
has not
been paid to or retained by the Subservicer;
(v) to
reimburse itself for any Nonrecoverable Advances;
(vi) to
transfer funds to another Qualified Depository in accordance with Section
4.09
hereof;
(vii) to
remove
funds deposited in the Protected Account in error by the Subservicer;
(viii) to
reimburse itself as provided in Section 8.01 and Section 8.03 hereof;
and
(ix) to

and terminate the Protected Account upon the termination of this
Agreement.
Section
4.06 Establishment
of Escrow Accounts; Deposits in Escrow Accounts.
The
Subservicer 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. Any funds deposited in an Escrow Account may be
invested
in Permitted Investments. Funds deposited in an Escrow Account may be
drawn on
by the Subservicer in accordance with Section 4.07. The creation of any
Escrow
Account shall be evidenced by an account certification in the form shown
in
Exhibit C. The original of such account certification shall be furnished
to the
Company upon request. The Subservicer acknowledges and agrees that the
Subservicer shall bear any losses incurred with respect to Permitted
Investments. The amount of any such losses shall be immediately deposited
by the
Subservicer in the Escrow Account out of the Subservicer’s own funds, with no
right to reimbursement therefor.
The
Subservicer shall deposit in the Escrow Account or Accounts within two
(2)
Business Days of Subservicer's receipt, and retain therein:
22
(i) all
Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage Loans, for the purpose
of
effecting timely payment of any items as are required under the terms
of this
Agreement; and
(ii) all
Insurance Proceeds which are to be applied to the restoration or repair
of any
Mortgaged Property (unless otherwise held in a suspense account).
The
Subservicer shall make withdrawals from an Escrow Account only to effect
such
payments as are required under this Agreement, and for such other purposes
as
shall be as set forth in and in accordance with Section 4.07. Except
as provided
in Section 4.07, the Subservicer shall be entitled to retain any interest
paid
on funds deposited in an Escrow Account by the Qualified
Depository.
Section
4.07 Permitted
Withdrawals From Escrow Account.
Withdrawals
from the Escrow Account may be made by the Subservicer only:

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

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;
(iii) to
refund
to the Mortgagor any funds as may be determined to be overages;
(iv) for
transfer to the Protected Account in connection with an acquisition of
REO
Property;

(vi) to
pay to
the Subservicer, or to the Mortgagor to the extent required by law, any

with
Section 4.06;
(viii) to
remove
funds placed in an Escrow Account in error by the Subservicer; and

and terminate the Escrow Account on the termination of this Agreement.
23
As
part
of its servicing duties, the Subservicer shall pay to the Mortgagors
interest on
funds in an 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.
Section
4.08 Payment
of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges, Maintenance of Primary Mortgage
Insurance
Policies, Collections Thereunder.
With
respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Subservicer 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 Policy 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 Subservicer 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 Subservicer shall
determine that any such payments are made by the Mortgagor when due.
The
Subservicer 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 Servicing Advances from its own funds
to effect
such payments to the extent necessary.
The
Subservicer shall 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 ratio of the current outstanding principal balance of the related
Mortgage
Loan to the appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property, based
on the most
recent appraisal of the Mortgaged Property performed by a Qualified Appraiser,
such appraisal to be included in the Servicing File, is reduced to an
amount for
which Xxxxxx Xxx no longer requires such insurance to be maintained.
The
Subservicer shall not cancel or refuse to renew any Primary Mortgage
Insurance
Policy 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
Subservicer
shall not take any action which would result in noncoverage under any
applicable
Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions
of the
Subservicer 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 Subservicer 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 Subservicer shall obtain a replacement
Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy as provided above.
24
In
connection with its activities as servicer, the Subservicer agrees to
prepare
and present, on behalf of itself and the Company, claims to the insurer
under
any Primary 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 Subservicer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance
Policy shall be deposited in the Protected Account, subject to withdrawal
pursuant to Section 4.05.
Section
4.09 Transfer
of Accounts.
The
Subservicer may transfer the Protected Account or the Escrow Account
to a
different Qualified Depository from time to time. The Subservicer shall
notify
the Company of any such transfer.
Section
4.10 Maintenance
of Hazard Insurance.
The
Subservicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan fire
and hazard
insurance with extended coverage as is 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 and (ii)
the
outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan. If the Mortgaged
Property is
in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency as being a special flood hazard area that has
federally-mandated flood insurance requirements, the Subservicer will
cause to
be maintained a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the
current
guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration with a generally acceptable
insurance carrier, 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 and (iii)
the
maximum amount of insurance which is available under the Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973, as amended. The Subservicer 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, liability insurance 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
Subservicer 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 the
Subservicer’s normal servicing procedures, shall be deposited in the Protected
Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.05, unless otherwise
held
in a suspense account by the Subservicer. It is understood and agreed
that no
other additional insurance need be required by the Subservicer or the
Mortgagor
or maintained on property acquired in respect of the Mortgage Loans,
other than
as provided in 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 Subservicer and its successors
and/or
assigns and shall provide for at least thirty days prior written notice
of any
cancellation, reduction in the amount or material change in coverage
to the
Subservicer. The Subservicer shall not interfere with the Mortgagor’s freedom of
choice in selecting either his insurance carrier or agent; provided,
however,
that the Subservicer shall not accept any such insurance policies from
insurance
companies unless such companies currently reflect a General Policy Rating
in
Best’s Key Rating Guide currently acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxx and are licensed
to
do business in the state wherein the property subject to the policy is
located.
All insurance policies maintained pursuant to this Section 4.10 shall
be
maintained with a Qualified Insurer.
25
Section
4.11 Blanket
Hazard Insurance.
In
the
event that the Subservicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy
with a
Qualified Insurer insuring against fire and hazards of extended coverage
on all
of the Mortgage Loans, then, to the extent such policy names the Company
as loss
payee and provides coverage in an amount equal to the amount required
under
Section 4.10, and otherwise complies with the requirements of Section
4.10, the
Subservicer shall be deemed conclusively to have satisfied its obligations
under
Section 4.10, it being understood and agreed that such blanket policy
may
contain a deductible clause, in which case the Subservicer shall, in
the event
that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged 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 Protected Account the
difference, if any, between the amount that would have been payable under
a
policy complying with Section 4.10 and the amount paid under such blanket
policy. Upon the request of the Company, the Subservicer shall cause
to be
delivered to the Company a certified true copy of such policy and a statement
from the insurer thereunder that such policy shall in no event be terminated
or
materially modified without 30 days prior written notice to the
Company.
Section
4.12 Fidelity
Bond, Errors and Omissions Insurance.
The
Subservicer shall maintain, at its own expense, with a Qualified Insurer,
a
blanket Fidelity Bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, with
broad
coverage with responsible companies that meet the requirements of Xxxxxx
Mae on
all officers, employees and other persons acting in any capacity with
regard to
the Mortgage Loans and who handle funds, money, documents and papers
relating to
the Mortgage Loans. The Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions insurance
shall
be in the form of the Mortgage Banker’s Blanket Bond and shall protect and
insure the Subservicer against losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement,
fraud, errors and omissions and negligent acts of such persons. Such
Fidelity
Bond and errors and omissions insurance shall also protect and insure
the
Subservicer 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 and errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve
the
Subservicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement.
The
minimum coverage under any such Fidelity Bond and insurance policy shall
be at
least equal to the corresponding amounts acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxx in
the Xxxxxx
Mae Guide or by Xxxxxxx Mac in the Xxxxxxx Mac Guide. The Subservicer
shall,
upon request of Company, deliver to the Company 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 days prior written notice
to
the Company. The Subservicer shall notify the Company within five Business
Days
of receipt of notice that such Fidelity Bond or insurance policy will
be, or has
been, materially modified or terminated. The Company and its 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.
26
Section
4.13 Title,
Management and Disposition of REO Property.
In
the
event that title to any 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 Company or its designee. Any such Person or Persons holding
such
title other than the Company shall acknowledge in writing that such title
is
being held as nominee for the benefit of the Company.
The
Subservicer shall assume the responsibility for marketing each REO Property
in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. Thereafter, the Subservicer
shall
continue to provide certain administrative services to the Company relating
to
such REO Property as set forth in this Section 4.13. The REO Property
must be
sold within three years following the end of the calendar year of the
date of
acquisition if a REMIC election has been made with respect to the arrangement
under which the Mortgage Loans and REO Property are held, unless (i)
the Company
shall have been supplied with an Opinion of Counsel (at the Company’s expense)
to the effect that the holding by the related trust of such Mortgaged
Property
subsequent to such three-year period (and specifying the period beyond
such
three-year period for which the Mortgaged Property may be held) will
not result
in the imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” of the related trust as
defined in Section 860F of the Code, or cause the related REMIC to fail
to
qualify as a REMIC, in which case the related trust may continue to hold
such
Mortgaged Property (subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion
of
Counsel), or (ii) the Company or the Subservicer shall have applied for,
prior
to the expiration of such three-year period, an extension of such three-year
period in the manner contemplated by Section 856(e)(3) of the Code, in
which
case the three-year period shall be extended by the applicable period.
If a
period longer than three years is permitted under the foregoing sentence
and is
necessary to sell any REO Property, the Subservicer shall report monthly
to the
Company as to progress being made in selling such REO Property.
Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, if a REMIC election has been made,
no
Mortgaged Property held by a REMIC shall be rented (or allowed to continue
to be
rented) or otherwise used for the production of income by or on behalf
of the
related trust or sold in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that
would (i)
cause such Mortgaged Property to fail to qualify at any time as “foreclosure
property” within a meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code, (ii) subject the
related trust to the imposition of any federal or state income taxes
on “net
income from foreclosure property” with respect to such Mortgaged Property within
the meaning of Section 860G(c) of the Code, or (iii) cause the sale of
such
Mortgaged Property to result in the receipt by the related trust or any
income
from non-permitted assets as described in Section 860F(a) (2)(B) of the
Code,
unless the Subservicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the
related
trust with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.
27
The
Subservicer shall, either itself or through an agent selected by the
Subservicer, and in accordance with the Xxxxxx Xxx Guide and Accepted
Servicing
Practices, manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property. Each
REO
Disposition shall be carried out by the Subservicer at such price and
upon such
terms and conditions as the Subservicer deems to be in the best interest
of the
Company and as are approved in writing by the Company. The REO Disposition
Proceeds from the sale of the REO Property shall be promptly deposited
in the
Protected Account. As soon as practical thereafter, the expenses of such
sale
shall be paid and the Subservicer shall reimburse itself for any related
Servicing Advances, or Monthly Advances made pursuant to Section
5.03.
The
Subservicer 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 may be required by
the
circumstances. The Subservicer shall make or cause the inspector to make
a
written report of each such inspection. Such reports shall be retained
in the
Servicing File and copies thereof shall be forwarded by the Subservicer
to the
Company.
Section
4.14 Notification
of Adjustments.
With
respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Subservicer shall adjust the Mortgage
Interest Rate on the related Adjustment Date in compliance with requirements
of
applicable law and the related electronic data received on the Mortgage
and
Mortgage Note. The Subservicer shall execute and deliver any and all
necessary
notices required under applicable law and the terms of the related electronic
data received on the Mortgage Note and Mortgage regarding the Mortgage
Interest
Rate adjustments. The Subservicer shall promptly, upon written request
by the
Company, deliver to the Company the information contained in 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
Subservicer or the receipt of notice from the Company that the Subservicer
has
failed to adjust a Mortgage Interest Rate in accordance with the terms
of the
related Mortgage Note and Mortgage, the Subservicer shall immediately
deposit in
the Protected Account from its own funds the amount of any interest loss
or
deferral caused to the Company thereby.
Section
4.15 Compliance
with Applicable Laws.
All
requirements of any federal, state or local law applicable to the servicing
of
the Mortgage Loans will be complied with by the Subservicer in all material
respects.
Section
4.16 Waiver
of Prepayment Charges.
The
Subservicer shall not waive any Prepayment Charge unless: (i) such Prepayment
Charge is unenforceable in accordance with applicable law or the collection
of
such related Prepayment Charge would otherwise violate applicable law,
(ii) such
waiver is standard and customary in servicing similar mortgage loans
to the
Mortgage Loans (including any waiver of a Prepayment Charge in connection
with a
refinancing of a Mortgage Loan related to a default or a reasonably foreseeable
default), or (iii) such waiver, in the reasonable judgment of the Subservicer,
would maximize recovery of total proceeds from the Mortgage Loan, taking
into
account the value of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage
Loan and
provided that the Company has consented to any such waiver made pursuant
to
clauses (ii) and (iii) above. In no event will the Subservicer waive
a
Prepayment Charge in connection with a refinancing of a Mortgage Loan
that is
not related to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default. If a Prepayment
Charge is waived, but does not meet the standards described above, then
the
Subservicer is required to pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge
from
its own funds without any right of reimbursement by remitting such amount
to the
Company by the Remittance Date.

6.01 Monthly
Advances by the Subservicer.
On
the
Business Day immediately preceding each Remittance Date, the Subservicer
shall
deposit in the Protected Account from its own funds or from amounts held
for
future distribution an amount equal to all Monthly Payments (with interest
adjusted to the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate) which were due on the
Mortgage
Loans during the applicable Due Period and which were delinquent at the
close of
business on the immediately preceding Determination Date or which were
deferred
pursuant to Section 4.01. Any amounts held for future distribution and
so used
shall be replaced by the Subservicer by deposit in the Protected Account
on or
before any future Remittance Date if funds in the Protected Account on
such
Remittance Date shall be less than payments to the Company required to
be made
on such Remittance Date. The Subservicer's obligation to make such Monthly
Advances as to any Mortgage Loan will continue through the last Monthly
Payment
due prior to the payment in full of the Mortgage Loan, or through the
last
Remittance Date prior to the Remittance Date for the distribution of
all
Liquidation Proceeds and other payments or recoveries (including REO
Disposition
Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds) with respect
to the
Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such obligation shall cease if
the
Subservicer determines, in its sole reasonable opinion, that advances
with
respect to such Mortgage Loan are, or would constitute, a Nonrecoverable
Advance.
Section

Reports.
Upon
the
foreclosure sale of any Mortgaged Property or the acquisition thereof
by the
Company pursuant to a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure, the Subservicer shall

and Company) with respect to such Mortgaged Property and all supporting
documentation reasonably required by the Master Servicer. The Servicer
shall
also provide reports on the status of REO Property containing such information
as Company may reasonably require.

GENERAL
SERVICING PROCEDURES
Section
7.01 Assumption
Agreements.
The
Subservicer shall, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or
prospective conveyance by any Mortgagor of a 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
Subservicer 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 Subservicer reasonably believes it is
unable
under applicable law to enforce such “due-on-sale” clause, the Subservicer, with
the approval of the Company, 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. If an assumption is allowed pursuant to this Section
6.01, the
Subservicer, with the prior consent of 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.
In
connection with any such assumption or substitution of liability, the
Subservicer shall follow the underwriting practices and procedures of
the Xxxxxx
Xxx Guide. With respect to an assumption or substitution of liability,
the
Mortgage Interest Rate borne by the related Mortgage Note and the amount
of the
Monthly Payment may not be changed. The Subservicer shall notify the
Company
that any such substitution of liability or assumption agreement has been
completed by forwarding to the Company the original of any such substitution
of
liability or assumption agreement, which document shall be added to the
related
Mortgage Loan Documents and shall, for all purposes, be considered a
part of
such related mortgage file to the same extent as all other documents
and
instruments constituting a part thereof. All fees collected by the Subservicer
for entering into an assumption or substitution of liability agreement
shall
belong to the Subservicer.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing paragraphs of this section or any other provision of this
Agreement, the Subservicer 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 Subservicer
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.
32
Section
7.02 Satisfaction
of Mortgages and Release of Mortgage Loan Documents.
Upon
the
payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, the Subservicer will immediately
notify
the Custodian with a certification and request for release by a Servicing
Officer in the form of Exhibit I attached hereto, which certification
shall
include a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection
with
such payment which are required to be deposited in the Protected Account
pursuant to Section 4.04 have been so deposited, and a request for delivery
to
the Subservicer of the Mortgage Loan Documents held by the Custodian.
Upon
receipt of such certification and request by the Custodian, the Company
shall
promptly release or cause the Custodian to promptly release the related
Mortgage
Loan Documents to the Subservicer and the Subservicer shall prepare and
deliver
for execution by the Company or at the Company’s option execute under the
authority of a power of attorney delivered to the Subservicer by the
Company any
satisfaction or release. No expense incurred in connection with any instrument
of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Protected
Account.
In
the
event the Subservicer 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 Company may have under the mortgage
instruments, the Subservicer, upon written demand, shall remit to the
Company
within two Business Days the shortfall required to make payment in full
on the
outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan by deposit
thereof in
the Protected Account. The Subservicer shall maintain the Fidelity Bond
and
errors and omissions insurance insuring the Subservicer against any loss
it may
sustain with respect to any Mortgage Loan not satisfied in accordance
with the
procedures set forth herein.
Section
7.03 Servicing
Compensation.
As
compensation for its services hereunder, the Subservicer shall be entitled
to
withdraw from the Protected Account or to retain from interest payments
on the
Mortgage Loans the amounts provided for as the Subservicer’s Servicing Fee.
Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, as
provided in
Section 6.01, late payment charges and other ancillary fees (excluding
Prepayment Charges) shall be retained by the Subservicer to the extent
not
required to be deposited in the Protected Account. The Subservicer 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.
Section
7.04 Report
on Compliance and Attestation.
(a) On
or
before March 15th
of each
calendar year, commencing in 2007, the Subservicer shall:

and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer, the Depositor
and the
Company) regarding the Subservicer’s assessment of compliance with the Servicing
Criteria during the immediately preceding calendar year, as required
under Rules
13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the
“Exchange Act”) and Item 1122 of Regulation AB. Such report shall be addressed
to the Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Company and signed by an
authorized officer of the Subservicer, and shall address each of the
applicable
Servicing Criteria specified on a certification substantially in the
form of
Exhibit J hereto delivered to the Master Servicer, the Depositor and
the Company
concurrently with the execution of this Agreement;
33
(ii) deliver
to the Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Company a report of a registered
public accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer,
the
Depositor and the Company that attests to, and reports on, the assessment
of
compliance made by the Subservicer and delivered pursuant to the preceding
paragraph. Such attestation shall be in accordance with Rules 1-02(a)(3)
and
2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the
“Securities Act”) and the Exchange Act;
(iii) cause
each Reg AB Subservicer, and each Reg AB Subcontractor determined by
the
Subservicer pursuant to Section 9.04(c) to be “participating in the servicing
function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, to deliver to the
Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Company an assessment of compliance
and
accountants’ attestation as and when provided in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this
Section; and
(iv) deliver
to the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Company and any other Person
that
will be responsible for signing the certification (a “Sarbanes Certification”)
required by Rules 13a-14(d) and 15d-14(d) under the Exchange Act (pursuant
to
Section 302 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002 (“Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx”)) on behalf of
the trust fund with respect to the transaction relating to this Agreement
a
certification signed by the appropriate officer of the Subservicer in
the form
attached hereto as Exhibit L.
The
Subservicer acknowledges that the parties identified in clause (a)(iv)
above may
rely on the certification provided by the Subservicer pursuant to such
clause in
signing a Sarbanes Certification and filing such with the Commission.
None of
the Master Servicer, the Depositor or the Company will request delivery
of a
certification under clause (a)(iv) above unless a Depositor is required
under
the Exchange Act to file an annual report on Form 10-K with respect to
the trust
fund.
(b) Each
assessment of compliance provided by a Reg AB Subservicer pursuant to
Section
7.04(a)(i) shall address each of the Servicing Criteria specified on
a
certification substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto delivered
to the
Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Company concurrently with the
execution
of this Agreement or, in the case of a Reg AB Subservicer subsequently
appointed
as such, on or prior to the date of such appointment. An assessment of
compliance provided by a Reg AB Subcontractor pursuant to Section 7.04(a)(iii)
need not address any elements of the Servicing Criteria other than those
specified by the Subservicer pursuant to Section 9.04.
34
Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Subservicer shall be
under no
obligation to provide any information that either the Company or Depositor
deem
required under Regulation AB if (i) the Subservicer does not believe
that such
information is required under Regulation AB and (ii) the Subservicer
is not
providing such information for securitizations on its own Shelf Registration
on
Form S-3 (or any Shelf Registration on Form S-3 of any of its Affiliates
relating to the same asset type) unless either the Company or Depositor
pays all
reasonable incremental costs incurred by the Subservicer in connection
with the
preparation and delivery of such information. The Subservicer shall deliver
any
such information within 15 days of such written request, if such information
is
quantitative information set forth on, or which may be derived from,
information
in the Subservicer's databases, or otherwise within a commercially reasonable
time taking into account the time required to implement the necessary
systems
and procedures to produce such information.
(c) The
Subservicer shall provide to the Company, the Master Servicer and the
Depositor,
evidence of the authorization of the person signing any certification
or
statement, copies or other evidence of Fidelity Bond Insurance and Errors
and
Omission Insurance policy, financial information and reports, and such
other
information related to the Subservicer or such Subservicer’s performance
hereunder as may be reasonably requested by the Company, the Master Servicer
or
the Depositor.
Section
7.05 Subservicer

to
the Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Company and signed by an authorized
Servicing Officer, to the effect that (i) a review of the Subservicer’s
activities during the immediately preceding calendar year (or applicable
portion
thereof) and of its performance under this Agreement during such period
has been
made under such Servicing Officer’s supervision, and (ii) to the best of such
Servicing Officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Subservicer has
fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement in all material
respects
throughout such calendar year (or applicable portion thereof) or, if
there has
been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect,
specifically identifying each such failure known to such officer and
the nature
and the status thereof.
Section
7.06 Company’s
Right to Examine Subservicer Records.
The
Company and the Master Servicer shall have the right to examine and audit,
at
its expense, upon reasonable notice to the Subservicer, during business
hours or
at such other times as might be reasonable under applicable circumstances,
any
and all of the books, records, documentation or other information of
the
Subservicer, or held by another for the Subservicer or on its behalf
or
otherwise, which relate to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans by
Subservicer.
The
Subservicer shall provide to the Company and the Master Servicer and
any
supervisory agents or examiners representing a state or federal governmental
agency having jurisdiction over the Company access to any documentation
regarding the Mortgage Loans in the possession of the Subservicer which
may be
required by any applicable regulations. Such access shall be afforded
upon
reasonable request, during normal business hours and at the offices of
the
Subservicer, and in accordance with the applicable federal or state government
regulations.
35
Company
shall reimburse the Subservicer for any actual, out-of-pocket expenses
reasonably incurred by the Subservicer as a result of its obligations
under this
Section 6.06. The Subservicer shall submit an invoice to the Company
detailing
such expenses.
Section
7.07 Compliance
with REMIC Provisions.
If
a
REMIC election has been made with respect to the arrangement under which
the
Mortgage Loans and REO Property are held, the Subservicer shall not take
any
action, cause the REMIC to take any action or fail to take (or fail to
cause to
be taken) any action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not
taken, as
the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of the REMIC as a REMIC
or (ii)
result in the imposition of a tax upon the REMIC (including but not limited
to
the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the
Code and the tax on “contribution” to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of
the Code unless the Subservicer has received an Opinion of Counsel (at
the
expense of the party seeking to take such actions) to the effect that
the
contemplated action will not endanger such REMIC status or result in
the
imposition of any such tax.
Section
7.08 Non-solicitation.
The
Subservicer shall not conduct any solicitation specifically targeted
to the
Mortgagors for the purpose of inducing or encouraging the early prepayment
or
refinancing of the related Mortgage Loans. It is understood and agreed
that
promotions undertaken by the Subservicer or any agent or affiliate of
the
Subservicer which are directed to the general public at large, including
mass
mailings based on commercially acquired mailing lists, newspaper, internet,
radio and television advertisements, shall not constitute solicitation
under
this Section 6.08.
Section
7.09 Reporting
Requirements of the Commission and Indemnification.
The
Subservicer, the Company, the Depositor and the Master Servicer acknowledge
and
agree that the purpose of Sections 3.01(i), 5.02(b) and (c), 7.04, 7.05
and 9.04
of this Agreement is to facilitate compliance by the Company, the Depositor
and
the Master Servicer with the provisions of Regulation AB and related
rules and
regulations of the Commission. None of the Master Servicer, the Depositor
or the
Company shall exercise its right to request delivery of information or
other
performance under these provisions other than in good faith, or for purposes
other than compliance with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the
rules
and regulations of the Commission thereunder (or the provision in a private
offering of disclosure comparable to that required under the Securities
Act).
The Subservicer acknowledges that interpretations of the requirements
of
Regulation AB may change over time, whether due to interpretive guidance
provided by the Commission or its staff, consensus among participants
in the
asset-backed securities markets, advice of counsel, or otherwise, and
agrees to
comply with requests made by the Master Servicer, the Depositor or the
Company
in good faith for delivery of information under these provisions on the
basis of
evolving interpretations of Regulation AB. In connection
with the
transaction relating to this Agreement,
the
Subservicer shall cooperate fully with the Master Servicer, the Depositor
and
the Company to deliver to the Master Servicer, the Depositor and the
Company
(including any of their respective assignees or designees), any and all
statements, reports, certifications, records and any other information
necessary
in the good faith determination of the Master Servicer, the Depositor
or the
Company to permit the Master Servicer or the Company to comply with the
provisions of Regulation AB, together with such disclosures relating
to the
Subservicer, any Reg AB Subservicer and the Mortgage Loans, or the servicing
of
the Mortgage Loans, reasonably believed by the Master Servicer, the Depositor
or
the Company to be necessary in order to effect such compliance.
36
The
Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Company (including any of their
respective assignees or designees) shall cooperate with the Subservicer
by
providing timely notice of requests for information under these provisions
and
by reasonably limiting such requests to information required, in the
Master
Servicer’s, the Depositor’s or the Company’s reasonable judgment, to comply with
Regulation AB.

Subservicer
as
subservicer, such provision shall be given effect.
37
(ii) Subject
to (f) below, any
failure by the Subservicer, any Reg AB Subservicer or any Reg AB Subcontractor
to
deliver any information, report, certification or accountants’ letter when and
as required under Section 7.04 or 7.05, including (except as provided
below) any
failure by the Subservicer
to
identify pursuant to Section 9.04(c) any Reg AB Subcontractor “participating in
the servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, which
continues unremedied for ten calendar days after the date on which such
information, report, certification or accountants’ letter was required to be
delivered shall constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Subservicer
under
this Agreement, and shall entitle the Company, in its sole discretion
to
terminate the rights and obligations of the Subservicer
as
subservicer under this Agreement without payment (notwithstanding anything
in
this Agreement to the contrary) of any compensation to the Subservicer;
provided
that to
the extent that any provision of this Agreement expressly provides for
the
survival of certain rights or obligations following termination of the
Subservicer
as
subservicer, such provision shall be given effect.
The
Company shall not be entitled to terminate the rights and obligations
of the
Subservicer
pursuant
to this subparagraph (b)(ii) if a failure of the Subservicer
to
identify a Reg AB Subcontractor “participating in the servicing function” within
the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB was attributable solely to
the role or
functions of such Reg AB Subcontractor with respect to mortgage loans
other than
the Mortgage Loans.
(iii) The
Subservicer
shall
promptly reimburse the Company (or any designee of the Company) for all
reasonable expenses incurred by the Company (or such designee), as such
are
incurred, in connection with the termination of the Subservicer
as
subservicer and the transfer of servicing of the Mortgage Loans to a
successor
subservicer. The provisions of this paragraph shall not limit whatever
rights
the Company may have under other provisions of this Agreement or otherwise,
whether in equity or at law, such as an action for damages, specific
performance
or injunctive relief.
(b)
The
Subservicer agrees to indemnify the Company, the Depositor, the Master
Servicer,
their successors and assigns, and any agent of the Company (each a “Company
Indemnified Person”) and hold each such Indemnified Person harmless from and
against any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and
expenses
that such Company Indemnified Person may sustain in any way related to
the
failure of the Subservicer to perform its duties and service the Mortgage
Loans
in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and for breach of any
representation, warranty or covenant of the Subservicer contained herein.
The
Subservicer shall immediately notify the Company or other Company Indemnified
Person if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement
or the
Mortgage Loans, assume (with the prior written consent of the Company
and such
other Indemnified Person) the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses
in
connection therewith, including counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge
and
satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or such
other
Company Indemnified Person in respect of such claim but failure to so
notify the
Company and such other Company Indemnified Person shall not limit its
obligations hereunder. The Subservicer agrees that it will not enter
into any
settlement of any such claim without the consent of the Company and such
other
Company Indemnified Person unless such settlement includes an unconditional
release of the Company and such other Company Indemnified Person from
all
liability that is the subject matter of such claim. The Subservicer shall
be
entitled to reimbursement of any such costs and expenses from funds in
the
Protected Account or from the Company, upon written notice, if funds
in the
Protected Account are insufficient for such purpose, unless such claim
relates
to a matter for which the Subservicer is required to indemnify the Company
Indemnified Person.
38
(c)
Failure to provide the Annual Statement of Compliance or Annual Certification
will be treated as a failure of the Subservicer to perform its duties
under the
Agreement and will be subject to the indemnification provisions of Section
9.01,
subject to the limitation expressed therein, of the Agreement. For any
indemnification from the Subservicer to any Master Servicer, the Subservicer
in
no event will be liable for punitive or consequential damages, regardless
of the
form of action, whether in contract, tort or otherwise.
(d)
The
Company shall indemnify the Subservicer, its affiliates, and their respective
officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns (each
a
“Subservicer Indemnified Person”) and hold each of such Subservicer Indemnified
Persons harmless from and against any and all claims, losses, damages,
penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments,
and any
other costs, fees and expenses that such Subservicer Indemnified Person
may
sustain in any way related to the failure of the Company to perform its
duties
in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and for breach of any
representation, warranty or covenant of the Company contained herein.
The
Company shall immediately notify the Subservicer or other Subservicer
Indemnified Party if a claim is made by a third party with respect to
this
Agreement or the Mortgage Loans, assume (with the prior written consent
of the
Subservicer and such other Subservicer Indemnified Person and with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Subservicer) the defense of any such claim
and
pay all reasonable expenses in connection therewith, including counsel
fees, and
promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may
be entered
against Subservicer or such other Subservicer Indemnified Person in respect
of
such claim but failure to so notify the Subservicer and such other Subservicer
Indemnified Person shall not limit its obligations hereunder. The Company
agrees
that it will not enter into any settlement of any such claim without
the consent
of the Subservicer and such other Subservicer Indemnified Person unless
such
settlement includes an unconditional release of the Subservicer and such
other
Subservicer Indemnified Person from all liability that is the subject
matter of
such claim.
39
(e)
In
addition to the indemnification set forth in Section 9.01(d) hereof,
the Company
shall indemnify and hold Subservicer and each Subservicer Indemnified
Person
harmless from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties,
fines,
forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs,
fees
and expenses resulting from or related to:
(1) any
failure of the Company, any Prior Servicer or the Originator to have
complied
with all Applicable Requirements with respect to the origination, purchase,
sale, securitization or servicing of the Mortgage Loans;
(2) the
Subservicer’s compliance with written instructions of the Company;
(3) any
outstanding Servicing Advance as to which Subservicer is not reimbursed
in
accordance with this Agreement;
(4) the
continuation and/or perpetuation by Subservicer of the past practices
of the
Company or any Prior Servicer that fail to comply with Applicable
Requirements;
(5) any
failure of Subservicer to comply with Applicable Requirements or the
requirements of this Agreement as a result of there being any incomplete,
inaccurate or missing Mortgage Loan Documents, Mortgage Files or Servicing
Files
as of the applicable Effective Date;
(6) any
litigation, arbitration or other proceeding before any governmental,
administrative or arbitral court or tribunal, or any government investigation
or
administrative enforcement action commenced against Subservicer after
the
applicable Effective Date as a result of Subservicer’s acting as, or status as,
servicer of the Mortgage Loans hereunder, to the extent that such proceeding
does not arise out of or result from Subservicer’s breach of any provision of
this Agreement;
(7) errors
in
the adjustment, after the applicable Effective Date but prior to the
completion
of an ARM Loan audit paid for by Company with respect to such ARM Loan,
of the
interest rate or payments on an ARM Loan to the extent arising out of
an
incorrect adjustment of such interest rate or payments prior to the applicable
Effective Date;
(8) Company’s
or a prior Servicer’s failure to comply with Subservicer’s transfer instructions
attached hereto as Exhibit H, or
(9) any
act
or omission or other event or circumstance to the extent occurring or
arising
prior to the applicable Effective Date and related to the origination,
purchase,
sale, securitization or servicing of the Mortgage Loans, including, without
limitation, any data integrity issue (and any related costs of correcting
such
issues).
(f)
The
provisions of this Section 9.01 shall survive termination of this
Agreement.
40
Section
9.02 Merger
or Consolidation of the Subservicer.
The
Subservicer shall keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises
as a
corporation under the laws of the state of its incorporation except as
permitted
herein, and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business
as a
foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which such qualification
is or shall
be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement
or any
of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its duties under this
Agreement.
Any
Person into which the Subservicer may be merged or consolidated, or any
corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to
which the
Subservicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business
of the
Subservicer whether or not related to loan servicing, shall be the successor
of
the Subservicer hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper
or any
further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein
to the
contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or surviving
Person shall be an institution (i) having a GAAP net worth of not less
than
$25,000,000, (ii) the deposits of which are insured by the FDIC, or which
is a
HUD-approved mortgagee whose primary business is in origination and servicing
of
first lien 1-4 family mortgage loans, and (iii) which is a Xxxxxx Xxx
or Xxxxxxx
Mac approved seller/servicer in good standing. Furthermore, in the event
the
Subservicer transfers or otherwise disposes of all or substantially all
of its
assets to an affiliate of the Subservicer, such affiliate shall satisfy
the
condition above, and shall also be fully liable to the Company for all
of the
Subservicer's obligations and liabilities hereunder.
Section
9.03 Limitation
on Liability of the Subservicer and Others.
Neither
the Subservicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents
of the
Subservicer shall be under any liability to the Company for any action
taken or
for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to
this
Agreement, or for errors in judgment made in good faith; provided, however,
that
this provision shall not protect the Subservicer or any such person against
any
breach of warranties or representations made herein, or failure to perform
its
obligations in compliance with any standard of care set forth in this
Agreement,
or any liability which would otherwise be imposed under this Agreement.
Notwithstanding Section 8.01(a), the Subservicer shall not be required
to
indemnify, or otherwise be liable to, the Company or those referenced
above for
any claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees
and
related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses which
the
Company is required to indemnify for pursuant to Sections 8.01(b) and
(c). The
Subservicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Subservicer
may
rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed
and
submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The
Subservicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute
or defend
any legal action which is not incidental to its duties to service the
Mortgage
Loans in accordance with this Agreement and which in its opinion may
involve it
in any expenses or liability; provided, however, that the Subservicer
may, with
the consent of the Company, undertake any such action which it may deem
necessary or desirable with respect to this Agreement and the rights
and duties
of the parties hereto. In such event, the reasonable legal expenses and
costs of
such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses,
costs and
liabilities for which the Company will be liable, and the Subservicer
shall be
entitled to reimbursement of such amounts from the Protected Account.
If funds
in the Protected Account are insufficient for such purpose, upon written
notice
to the Company, Company shall reimburse the Subservicer for such expenses,
costs
and liabilities.

Section
9.04 Subservicing
Agreements and Successor Subservicer.
(a) The
Subservicer shall not hire or otherwise utilize the services of any Reg
AB
Subservicer to fulfill any of the obligations of the Subservicer as subservicer
under this Agreement unless the Subservicer complies with the provisions
of
paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04 and the proposed Reg AB Subservicer
(i) is an
institution which is an approved Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac Seller/Servicer
as
indicated in writing and (ii) represents and warrants that it is in compliance
with the laws of each state as necessary to enable it to perform its
obligations
under such subservicing agreement. The Subservicer shall not hire or
otherwise
utilize the services of any Reg AB Subcontractor, and shall not permit
any Reg
AB Subservicer to hire or otherwise utilize the services of any Reg AB
Subcontractor, to fulfill any of the obligations of the Subservicer as
subservicer under this Agreement unless the Subservicer complies with
the
provisions of paragraph (c) of this Section 9.04.
(b) It
shall
not be necessary for the Subservicer to seek the consent of the Master
Servicer
and the Company to the utilization of any Reg AB Subservicer. For purposes
of
this Agreement, the Subservicer shall be deemed to have received payments
on
Mortgage Loans immediately upon receipt by any Reg AB Subservicer of
such
payments. Each subservicing agreement shall provide that a successor
Subservicer
shall have the option to terminate such agreement without payment of
any fees if
the predecessor Subservicer is terminated or resigns. The Subservicer
shall
cause any Reg AB Subservicer used by the Subservicer (or by any Reg AB
Subservicer) to comply with the provisions of this Section 9.04 and with
Sections 3.01(i), 5.02(b), 7.04(a), 7.04(b), 7.05 and 9.01 and Exhibit
J of this
Agreement to the same extent as if such Reg AB Subservicer were the Subservicer.
The Subservicer shall be responsible for obtaining from each Reg AB Subservicer
and delivering to the Master Servicer and the Company any subservicer
compliance
statement required to be delivered by such Reg AB Subservicer under Section
7.05, any reports on assessment of compliance and attestation required
to be
delivered by such Reg AB Subservicer under Section 7.04 and any certification
required to be delivered under 7.04 to the Person that will be responsible
for
signing the Sarbanes Certification under Section 7.04 as and when required
to be
delivered hereunder.
(c) It
shall
not be necessary for the Subservicer to seek the consent of the Master
Servicer
and the Company to the utilization of any Reg AB Subcontractor. The Subservicer
shall promptly upon request provide the Master Servicer and the Company
a
written description (in form and substance satisfactory to the Master
Servicer
and the Company) of the role and function of each Reg AB Subcontractor
utilized
by the Subservicer or any Reg AB Subservicer, specifying (A) the identity
of
each such Reg AB Subcontractor, (B) which (if any) of such Reg AB Subcontractors
are Participating Entities, and (C) which elements of the servicing criteria
set
forth under Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB will be addressed in assessments
of
compliance provided by each Reg AB Subcontractor identified pursuant
to clause
(B) of this paragraph.
42
As
a
condition to the utilization of any Reg AB Subcontractor determined to
be a
Participating Entity, the Subservicer shall cause any such Reg AB Subcontractor
used by the Subservicer (or by any Reg AB Subservicer) for the benefit
of the
Master Servicer and the Company to comply with the provisions of Sections
3.01(i), 5.02(b), 7.04(a), 7.04(b), 7.05 and 9.01 and Exhibit J of this
Agreement to the same extent as if such Reg AB Subcontractor were the
Subservicer. The Subservicer shall be responsible for obtaining from
each Reg AB
Subcontractor and delivering to Master Servicer and the Company any assessment
of compliance and attestation required to be delivered by such Reg AB
Subcontractor under Sections 7.04 and 7.05, in each case as and when
required to
be delivered.
Section
9.05 Subservicer
Not to Resign.
The
Subservicer shall not assign this Agreement or resign from the obligations
and
duties hereby imposed on it except by mutual consent of the Subservicer
and the
Company or upon the determination that its duties hereunder are no longer
permissible under applicable law and such incapacity cannot be cured
by the
Subservicer. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the
Subservicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect
delivered
to the Company which Opinion of Counsel shall be in form and substance
reasonably acceptable to the Company. No such resignation shall become
effective
until a successor shall have assumed the Subservicer’s responsibilities and
obligations hereunder in the manner provided in Section 11.01.
Section
9.06 No
Transfer of Servicing.
With
respect to the retention of the Subservicer to service the Mortgage Loans
hereunder, the Subservicer acknowledges that the Company has acted in
reliance
upon the Subservicer’s independent status, the adequacy of its servicing
facilities, plan, personnel, records and procedures, its integrity, reputation
and financial standing and the continuance thereof. Without in any way
limiting
the generality of this section, the Subservicer shall not either assign
this
Agreement or the servicing hereunder or delegate its rights or duties
hereunder
or any portion thereof, without the prior written approval of the
Company.

respect
any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Subservicer

unremedied for a period of sixty days (except that such number of days
shall be
fifteen in the case of a failure to pay any premium for any insurance
policy
required to be maintained under this Agreement and such failure shall
be deemed
to have a material adverse effect) after the date on which written notice
of
such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given
to the
Subservicer by the Company; or
(v) a
decree
or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction
for
the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency,
bankruptcy, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities
or
similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs,
shall
have been entered against the Subservicer and such decree or order shall
have
remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty days;
or
(vi) the
Subservicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver
or
liquidator in any insolvency, bankruptcy, readjustment of debt, marshaling
of
assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Subservicer
or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or
(vii) the
Subservicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally
as
they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable
insolvency,
bankruptcy or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit
of its
creditors, voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations or cease its
normal
business operations for two Business Days; or
(viii) the
Subservicer ceases to meet the qualifications of a Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx
Mac
servicer; or
(ix) the
Subservicer attempts, without the consent of the Company, to assign this
Agreement or the servicing responsibilities hereunder or to delegate
its duties
hereunder or any portion thereof except as otherwise permitted herein;
44
(x) the
Subservicer ceases to be 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 Subservicer’s ability to
perform its obligations hereunder;
(xi) failure
by the Subservicer to duly perform, within the required time period,
its
obligations under Section 6.04, Section 6.05 or Section 6.09 of this

which failure continues unremedied for a period of fifteen (15) days
after the
date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be
remedied,
shall have been given to the Subservicer by any party to this Agreement
or by
any master servicer responsible for master servicing the Mortgage Loans
pursuant
to a securitization of such Mortgage Loans;
(xii) the
Subservicer ceases to be licensed to service first lien residential mortgage
loans in any jurisdiction in which a Mortgaged Property is located and
such

or
(xiii) the
Subservicer fails to meet the eligibility criteria set forth in the second

In
each
and every such case, so long as an Event of Default shall not have been
remedied, the Company, by notice in writing to the Subservicer (except
in the
case of an Event of Default under clauses (v), (vi) or (vii) above, in
which
case, automatically and without notice) may, in addition to whatever
rights the
Company may have under Section 8.01 and at law or equity to damages,
including
injunctive relief and specific performance, terminate all the rights
and
obligations of the Subservicer under this Agreement and in and to the
Mortgage
Loans and the proceeds thereof without compensating the Subservicer for
the
same; provided that Subservicer shall be entitled to all outstanding
servicing
compensation and unreimbursed advances due pursuant to this Agreement.
The
rights and obligations of the Subservicer pursuant to subparagraphs (ii)
and
(iii) above shall not be terminated if a failure of the Subservicer to
identify
a Reg AB Subcontractor as a Participating Entity was attributable solely
to the
role or functions of such Reg AB Subcontractor with respect to mortgage
loans
other than the Mortgage Loans.
From
and
after the receipt by the Subservicer of such written notice (or, in the
case of
an Event of Default under clauses (iii), (iv) or (v) above, in which
case,
automatically and without notice), all authority and power of the Subservicer
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 Company, the Subservicer 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 Subservicer’s
sole expense. The Subservicer agrees to reasonably cooperate with the
Company
and such successor in effecting the termination of the Subservicer’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 Subservicer to the Protected Account
or
Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage
Loans.
45
If
an
Event of Default occurs, the Subservicer shall provide written notice
of such
Event of Default to the Master Servicer.
Section
10.02 Waiver
of Defaults.
The
Company may waive, only by written notice, any default by the Subservicer
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.
ARTICLE
XI
TERMINATION
Section
11.01 Termination.
The
respective obligations and responsibilities of the Subservicer shall
terminate
upon the earliest to occur of the following: (i) the later of the final
payment
or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last
Mortgage
Loan or the disposition of any REO Property and the remittance of all
funds due
hereunder; (ii) by 30 days’ written mutual consent of the Subservicer and
the Company or as provided in Section 10.02; and (iii) termination by
the
Company pursuant to Section 9.01. Simultaneously with any such termination
and
the transfer of servicing hereunder, the Subservicer shall be entitled
to be
reimbursed for any outstanding servicing compensation and Servicing Advances
and
Monthly Advances (net of any amounts owed by the Subservicer to the Company
hereunder). In no event shall the Subservicer be entitled to any termination
fee
or other compensation with respect to any termination of this Agreement
for
cause or the Subservicer’s rights hereunder, in whole or in part.
Section
11.02 Removal
of Mortgage Loans from Inclusion Under this Agreement Upon a Pass-Through
Transfer.
The
Company and the Subservicer agree that with respect to some or all of
the
Mortgage Loans, the Company, at its sole option, may effect Pass-Through
Transfers, retaining the Subservicer as the servicer thereof or subservicer
if a
master servicer is employed, or as applicable the “servicer”. The Company and
the Subservicer acknowledge and agree that, subsequent to the initial
securitization of any Mortgage Loans contemporaneous with the transfer
to
Subservicer of such Mortgage Loans under this Agreement, the Subservicer
is not
obligated hereunder to act as servicer or subservicer in any Reconstitution.
At
the election of the Company, from and after the Reconstitution Date,
the
Mortgage Loans transferred shall, insofar as the Subservicer and the
Company
have agreed that the Subservicer shall act as servicer or subservicer
in the
Reconstitution, remain covered by this Agreement or shall be subject
to a
pooling and servicing agreement or a subservicing agreement containing
customary
secondary market servicing provisions with respect to servicing
responsibilities, investor reporting, segregation and deposit of principal
and
interest payments, custody of Mortgage Loans, and other provisions that
conform
to secondary market standards for mortgage-backed securities backed by
mortgage
loans similar to the Mortgage Loans. In connection with any Reconstitution
in
which the Company and the Subservicer have agreed that the Subservicer
shall act
as the servicer or subservicer in the Reconstitution, the Company shall
deliver
any agreement (“Reconstitution Agreement”) or other document related to the
Pass-Through Transfer to the Subservicer at least ten (10) Business Days
prior
to such transfer; the Servicer’s refusal to cooperate with the Company based on
late delivery of such documents shall result in no liability to the
Subservicer.
46
The
Subservicer shall reasonably cooperate with the Company in connection
with each
Pass-Through Transfer in accordance with this Section 10.02; provided,
however,
that under no circumstances and in no event shall such cooperation include
any
act of the Subservicer or any event affecting the Subservicer which would
materially increase the Subservicer’s liabilities, obligations or costs beyond
those liabilities, obligations and costs contained in this Agreement.
In
connection therewith the Subservicer shall:
(a) make
all
representations and warranties with respect to the Subservicer itself
as of the
Reconstitution Date of the related Pass-Through Transfer that conform
in all
material respects to the representations and warranties in this
Agreement;
(b) negotiate
in good faith and execute any Reconstitution Agreement required by the
shelf
registrant to effectuate the foregoing provided that (i) such Reconstitution
Agreement contains servicing provisions substantially similar to those
herein or
are otherwise acceptable to the Subservicer in its sole discretion and
(ii) the
Subservicer’s refusal to execute any Reconstitution Agreement or related
documents may be based on any provision which materially (A) increases
the
liability or obligations of the Subservicer and/or (B) deprives the Subservicer
of the economic benefit intended to be conferred by this Agreement;
(c) provide
as applicable:
(i) any
and
all information and appropriate verification of information which may
be
reasonably available to the Subservicer, including the Subservicer's
applicable
foreclosure, delinquency experience and the Subservicer's underwriting
standards, whether through letters of its auditors and counsel or otherwise,
as
the Company shall reasonably request;
(ii) such
additional opinions of counsel, letters from auditors, and certificates
of
public officials or officers of the Subservicer as are reasonably believed
necessary by the Trustee, any Rating Agency, or the Company, as the case
may be,
in connection with such Pass-Through Transfers. The Company shall pay
all third
party costs associated with the preparation of such information. Under
this
Agreement, the Subservicer shall retain a servicing fee at a rate per
annum
equal to no less than the rate specified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule
for such
Mortgage Loan; and
47
(d) indemnify
the Company for any material misstatements contained in the information
provided
pursuant to (c) above.
The
Company hereby agrees to reimburse the Subservicer for reasonable expenses
incurred by the Subservicer that relate to reviewing and commenting on
the
Reconstitution Agreement for such Pass-Through Transfer. All Mortgage
Loans not
sold or transferred pursuant to a Pass-Through Transfer shall remain
subject to
this Agreement and shall continue to be serviced in accordance with the
terms of
this Agreement and with respect thereto this Agreement shall remain in
full
force and effect.
ARTICLE
XII
MISCELLANEOUS
PROVISIONS
Section
12.01 Successor
to the Subservicer.
Upon
termination of the Subservicer’s responsibilities and duties under this
Agreement pursuant to Sections 8.04, 9.01, or 10.01(iv) or (v), the Company
shall appoint a successor having the characteristics set forth in Section
8.02
and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities,
duties and liabilities of the Subservicer under this Agreement prior
to the
termination of the Subservicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under
this Agreement. Each Rating Agency for a related securitization shall
be given
prior written notice of the identity of the proposed successor and each
Rating
Agency’s rating of the related securities in effect immediately prior to such
appointment will not be downgraded, qualified or withdrawn as a result
of such
appointment, as evidenced by a letter to such effect delivered to the
Master
Servicer and the Trustee. In connection with such appointment and assumption,
the Company may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor
out of payments on Mortgage Loans as the Company and such successor shall
agree.
In the event that the Subservicer’s duties, responsibilities and liabilities
under this Agreement should be terminated pursuant to the aforementioned
sections, the Subservicer 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; provided, however, that a successor servicer shall be
in place
within 210 days of the date the Subservicer acquires knowledge of such
termination. Except as provided for in the preceding sentence, the resignation
or removal of the Subservicer 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 Subservicer of the representations
and
warranties made pursuant to Article III and the remedies available to
the
Company under Section 8.01, it being understood and agreed that the provisions
of such Article III and Section 8.01 shall be applicable to the Subservicer
notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of the Subservicer,
or the
termination of this Agreement.
Any
successor appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge and
deliver to
the Subservicer and to the Company an instrument accepting such appointment,
whereupon such successor shall become fully vested with all the rights,
powers,
duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Subservicer,
with
like effect as if originally named as a party to this Agreement. Any
termination
or resignation of the Subservicer or termination of this Agreement pursuant
to
Section 8.04, 9.01 or 10.01 shall not affect any claims that the Company
may
have against the Subservicer arising prior to any such termination or
resignation.
48
The
Subservicer shall promptly deliver to the successor the funds in the
Protected
Account and the Escrow Account and the Servicing Files and related documents
and
statements held by it hereunder and the Subservicer shall account for
all funds.
The Subservicer shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such
other
things 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 Subservicer.
Upon
a
successor’s acceptance of appointment as such, the Subservicer shall notify the
Company of such appointment.
Section
12.02 Amendment.
This
Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Subservicer and the
Company
with the prior written consent of the Master Servicer and the Depositor;
provided
that the
party requesting such amendment shall, at its own expense, provide the
Master
Servicer and the Depositor with an Opinion of Counsel that such amendment
will
not materially adversely affect the interest of the certificateholders
in the
Mortgage Loans. Any such amendment shall be deemed not to adversely affect
in
any material respect any the interest of the certificateholders in the
Mortgage
Loans if the Trustee receives written confirmation from each Rating Agency
that
such amendment will not cause such Rating Agency to reduce, qualify or
withdraw
the then current rating assigned to the certificates (and any Opinion
of Counsel
received by the the Master Servicer and the Depositor in connection with
any
such amendment may rely expressly on such confirmation as the basis
therefor);
provided, however,
this
Agreement may be amended by the Subservicer and the Company from time
to time
without the delivery of an Opinion of Counsel described above to the
extent
necessary, in the judgment of the Company and its counsel, to comply
with any
rules promulgated by the Commission and any interpretations thereof by
the staff
of the Commission.

reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in
evidence.
Section
12.09 Confidentiality
of Information.
51
The
Subservicer and the Company each agrees that any information and documents
that
are furnished for the purposes of performing under this Agreement or
that are
produced or are otherwise furnished to or come to the attention of either
party
are proprietary and shall be used only for the purposes of this Agreement.
This
information includes the terms of this Agreement, technical specifications
and
operating manuals, services and information concerning current, future,
or
proposed products and services and combinations of products and services;
product and services descriptions; financial information; information
related to
mergers or acquisitions; passwords and security procedures; computer
programs,
software, and software documentation; customer and/or prospective client
lists,
and all other information relating in any way to the customer and/or
prospective
client; printouts; records; policies, practices and procedures; and any
or all
other information, data or materials relating to the business, trade
secrets and
technology of either party, its customers, clients, employees, business
affairs,
affiliates, subsidiaries and the affiliates of its parent organization
(all of
the foregoing collectively referred to as “Confidential Information”). Neither
party shall, without the prior consent of the other party, advertise
or announce
that it is providing or has provided services to the other party, or
otherwise
use any trade name, trademark, service xxxx or other information which
identifies the other party or its affiliates in a party’s marketing and
publicity activities.
Each
party shall maintain the Confidential Information of the other in confidence
using the same care and discretion to avoid disclosure of Confidential
Information as it uses to protect its own confidential information that
it does
not want disclosed, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of
care;
provided, however, the Trustee and the Master Servicer may disclose on
a
confidential basis any Confidential Information to its agents, auditors
and
attorneys in connection with its performance of its responsibilities
hereunder
and under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Each party further agrees
to (a)
restrict disclosure of Confidential Information of the disclosing party
solely
to persons who need to know the Confidential Information to perform under
this
Agreement, (b) not to disclose any Confidential Information to any third
party
or copy Confidential Information without written approval of the disclosing
party, and (c) inform those third parties and other persons who receive
Confidential Information of its confidential nature and obtain their
agreement
to abide by the obligations set forth herein. Each party shall implement
all
policies and procedures to ensure compliance with all applicable provisions
of
the Privacy Requirements.
The
obligations imposed under this Agreement shall not apply to Confidential
Information that is (a) made public by the party whose Confidential Information
is disclosed, party, (b) generally available to the public other than
by a
breach of this Agreement by the receiving party, its employees or agents,
(c)
necessary to be disclosed or used by either party in litigation with
the other
party or (d) rightfully received from a third person having the legal
right to
disclose the Confidential Information free of any obligation of confidence,
nor
shall this Section 11.09 be deemed to prohibit any disclosure by a party
that is
necessary or appropriate in such party’s work with legal counsel, accountants,
auditors or as required by applicable law or regulation. In the event
that the
receiving party, or any of such party’s agents or employees, becomes legally
compelled (by deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena,
civil
or criminal investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any
Confidential Information of the disclosing party, such receiving party
shall
provide prompt prior notice to the disclosing party so that it may seek
a
protective order or other appropriate remedy. In the event that such
protective
order or other remedy is not obtained, or that the disclosing party waives
compliance with the provisions of this Section 11.09, the receiving party
will
furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which in the
judgment
of its counsel is legally required and will exercise reasonable efforts
to
obtain assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential
Information.
52
Each
party acknowledges and agrees that any breach or threatened breach of
any of the
provisions of this Section 12.09 by the other party will result in immediate
and
irreparable harm and that any remedies at law in such event will be inadequate.
The parties agree that such breaches, whether threatened or actual, will
give
the disclosing party the right to obtain injunctive relief to restrain
such
disclosure or use. This right shall, however, be in addition to and not
in lieu
of any other remedies at law or in equity.
Upon
termination of the Agreement, all copies of the Confidential Information
will
either be destroyed or returned to the disclosing party immediately upon
such
party’s request. Each party agrees that it will not retain any copy, summary
or
extract of the Confidential Information or any related work papers on
any
storage medium whatsoever. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, neither party shall in any event have any obligation hereunder
to
destroy Mortgage Loan Documents related thereto.
The
Subservicer and the Company each acknowledges that the provisions of
the federal
securities laws restrict any person who is in the possession of material,
non-public information regarding any company from purchasing or selling
securities of such company and from communicating such information to
any other
person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that
such
person is likely to purchase or sell such securities. The Subservicer
and the
Company each agrees to abide by such laws as they relate to the other’s
securities and Confidential Information.
Section
12.10 Assignment
by the Company.
No
transfer of a Mortgage Loan may be made unless such transfer is in compliance
with the terms hereof. The Company shall have the right, without the
consent of
the Subservicer but subject to the limits set forth in this Agreement
hereof, to
assign, in whole or in part, its interest under this Agreement with respect
to
some or all of the Mortgage Loans, and designate any person to exercise
any
rights of the Company hereunder and the assignee or designee shall accede
to the
rights and obligations hereunder of the Company with respect to such
Mortgage
Loans provided that (a) the Company and any such assignee or designee
execute an
assignment and assumption agreement reasonably acceptable to the Subservicer,
(b) such Person has a tangible net worth of $20 million or such Person
is
otherwise acceptable to the Subservicer, in its sole and absolute discretion,
(c) there shall not be more than three (3) owners of the Mortgage Loans
exclusive of the Mortgage Loans included in a Pass-Through Transfer,
and (d) the
Company provides the Subservicer with written notice of the transfer
thirty (30)
days prior to the effective date of such transfer. All references to
the Company
in this Agreement shall be deemed to include its assignees or
designees.
53
Section
12.11 No
Partnership.
Nothing
herein contained shall be deemed or construed to create a co-partnership
or
joint venture between the parties hereto and the services of the Subservicer
shall be rendered as an independent contractor and not as agent for
Company.
Section
12.12 Counterparts;
Successors and Assigns.
This
Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by the different
parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed,
shall
be deemed to be an original; such counterparts, together, shall constitute
one
and the same agreement. Subject to Section 8.05, this Agreement shall
inure to
the benefit of and be binding upon the Subservicer and the Company and
their
respective successors and assigns.
Section
12.13 Entire
Agreement.
Each
of
the Subservicer and the Company acknowledges that no representations,
agreements
or promises were made to it by the other party or any of its employees
other
than those representations, agreements or promises specifically contained
herein. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding between the
parties
hereto with respect to the matters set forth herein, and shall be binding
upon
all successors of both parties.
Section
12.14 Further
Agreements.
The
Subservicer and the Company each agrees to execute and deliver to the
other such
reasonable and appropriate additional documents, instruments or agreements
as
may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the purpose of this
Agreement.
Section
12.15 Third
Party Beneficiary.
Notwithstanding
any provision herein to the contrary, the parties to this Agreement agree
that
it is appropriate, in furtherance of the intent of such parties as set
forth
herein, that the Master Servicer and the Depositor receive the benefit
of the
provisions of this Agreement as intended third party beneficiaries of
this
Agreement to the extent of such provisions. The Subservicer shall have
the same
obligations to the Master Servicer and the Depositor as if they were
parties to
this Agreement, and the Master Servicer and the Depositor shall have
the same
rights and remedies to enforce the provisions of this Agreement as if
they were
parties to this Agreement. The Subservicer shall only take direction
from the
Master Servicer (if direction by the Master Servicer is required under
this
Agreement) unless otherwise directed by this Agreement. Notwithstanding
the
foregoing, all rights and obligations of the Master Servicer and the
Depositor
hereunder (other than the right to indemnification) shall terminate upon
the
termination of the trust fund.
54
IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, the Subservicer and the Company have caused their names
to be

shall
reimburse GMACM for the amount of such shortage within twenty (20)
days
after receipt of written demand from
GMACM.
|

If
you
are currently making your mortgage payment through government allotment or
have
established a third party relationship to automatically make payments on
your
behalf (other than automatic draft through your personal checking or savings
account), please ensure you take the necessary steps to advise them of your
new
loan number and change the payee to GMAC Mortgage Corporation.
You
should also be aware of the following information, which is set out in more
detail in section 6 of the real estate settlement procedures act (RESPA)
(12
U.S.C. 2605):
During
the 60-day period following the effective date of the transfer of the loan
servicing, a loan payment received by your old servicer before its due date
may
not be treated by the new loan servicer as late, and a late fee may not be
imposed on you.
Section
6
of RESPA (12 U.S.C. 2605) gives you certain consumer rights. If you send
a
“qualified written request” to your loan servicer concerning the servicing of
your loan, your servicer must provide you with a written acknowledgment within
20 business days of receipt of your request. A “qualified written request” is a
written correspondence, other than notice on a payment coupon or other payment
medium supplied by the servicer, which includes your name and account number,
and your reasons for the request.
Not
later
than 60 business days after receiving your request, your servicer must make
any
appropriate corrections to your account, and must provide you with a written
clarification regarding any dispute. During this 60-business day period,
your
servicer may not provide information to a consumer reporting agency concerning
any overdue payment related to such period or qualified written request.
However, this does not prevent the servicer from initiating foreclosure if
proper grounds exist under the mortgage documents.
A
business day is a day on which the offices of the business entity are open
to
the public for carrying on substantially all of its business functions.
Section
6
of RESPA also provides for damages and costs for individuals or classes of
individuals in circumstances where servicers are shown to have violated the
requirements of that section. You should seek legal advice if you believe
your
rights have been violated
Future
inquiries regarding the Servicing of your loan should be directed to GMAC
Mortgage. Their correspondence address and toll free telephone number are
