This
TRUST AGREEMENT, dated as of August 1, 2006 (the “Agreement”), is by and among
STRUCTURED ASSET SECURITIES CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation, as depositor
(the “Depositor”), U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as trustee (the “Trustee”),
XXXXX FARGO BANK, N.A., a national banking association, as master servicer
(in
such capacity, the “Master Servicer”) and as securities administrator (in such
capacity, the “Securities Administrator”), and XXXXXXX FIXED INCOME SERVICES
INC. (formerly known as The Murrayhill Company), a Colorado corporation, as
credit risk manager (the “Credit Risk Manager”).
PRELIMINARY
STATEMENT
The
Depositor has acquired the Mortgage Loans from the Seller, and at the Closing
Date is the owner of the Mortgage Loans and the other property being conveyed
by
it to the Trustee hereunder for inclusion in the Trust Fund. On the Closing
Date, the Depositor will acquire the Certificates from the Trust Fund, as
consideration for its transfer to the Trust Fund of the Mortgage Loans and
the
other property constituting the Trust Fund. The Depositor has duly authorized
the execution and delivery of this Agreement to provide for the conveyance
to
the Trustee of the Mortgage Loans and the other property constituting the Trust
Fund. All covenants and agreements made by the Seller in the Mortgage Loan
Sale
Agreement and by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator and the Trustee herein with respect to the Mortgage Loans and
the
other property constituting the Trust Fund are for the benefit of the Holders
from time to time of the Certificates and, to the extent provided herein, any
NIMS Insurer, the Swap Counterparty and the Cap Counterparty. The Depositor,
the
Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Credit Risk
Manager are entering into this Agreement, and the Trustee is accepting the
Trust
Fund created hereby, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged.
As
provided herein, an election shall be made that the Trust Fund (exclusive of
(i)
the Swap Agreement, (ii) the Swap Account, (iii) the right to receive and the
obligation to pay Basis Risk Shortfalls and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfalls, (iv)
the Basis Risk Reserve Fund, (v) the Supplemental Interest Trust, (vi) the
Interest Rate Cap Agreement, (vii) the Interest Rate Cap Account, (viii) any
PPTL Premium, (ix) any FPD Premium and (x) the obligation to pay Class I
Shortfalls (collectively, the “Excluded Trust Assets”)) be treated for federal
income tax purposes as comprising four real estate mortgage investment conduits
under Section 860D of the Code (each a “REMIC” or, in the alternative “REMIC 1,”
“REMIC 2,” “REMIC 3,” and “REMIC 4” (REMIC 4 also being referred to as the
“Upper Tier REMIC”)). Any inconsistencies or ambiguities in this Agreement or in
the administration of this Agreement shall be resolved in a manner that
preserves the validity of such REMIC elections.
Each
Certificate, other than the Class R and Class LT-R Certificates, represents
ownership of a regular interest in the Upper Tier REMIC for purposes of the
REMIC Provisions. In addition, each Certificate, other than the Class R, Class
LT-R, Class X and Class P Certificates, represents (i) the right to receive
payments with respect to any Basis Risk Shortfalls and Unpaid Basis Risk
Shortfalls and (ii) the obligation to pay Class I Shortfalls. The Class LT-R
Certificate represents ownership of the sole Class of residual interest in
REMIC
1. The Class R Certificate represents ownership of the sole Class of residual
interest in each of REMIC 2, REMIC 3, and the Upper Tier REMIC for purposes
of
the REMIC Provisions.
The
Upper
Tier REMIC shall hold as its assets the uncertificated Lower Tier Interests
in
REMIC 3, other than the Class LT3-R interest, and each such Lower Tier Interest
is hereby designated as a regular interest in REMIC 3 for purposes of the REMIC
Provisions. REMIC 3 shall hold as its assets the uncertificated Lower Tier
Interests in REMIC 2, other than the Class LT2-R interest, and each such Lower
Tier Interest is hereby designated as a regular interest in REMIC 2. REMIC
2
shall hold as its assets the uncertificated Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1,
and
each such Lower Tier Interest is hereby designated as a regular interest in
REMIC 1. REMIC 1 shall hold as its assets the property of the Trust Fund other
than the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1, REMIC 2, and REMIC 3 and the Excluded
Trust Assets.
The
startup day for each REMIC created hereby for purposes of the REMIC Provisions
is the Closing Date. In addition, for purposes of the REMIC Provisions, the
latest possible maturity date for each regular interest in each REMIC created
hereby is the Latest Possible Maturity Date.
REMIC
1:
REMIC
1
shall issue one uncertificated interest in respect of each Mortgage Loan held
by
the Trust Fund on the Closing Date, each of which is hereby designated as a
regular interest in REMIC 1 (the “REMIC 1 Regular Interests”). REMIC 1 shall
also issue the Class LT-R Certificate, which shall represent the sole class
of
residual interest in REMIC 1. Each REMIC 1 Regular Interest shall have an
initial principal balance equal to the Scheduled Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loan to which it relates and shall bear interest at a per annum rate
equal to the Net Mortgage Rate of such Mortgage Loan. In the event a Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loan is substituted for such Mortgage Loan (the “Original
Mortgage Loan”), no amount of interest payable on such Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan shall be distributed on such REMIC 1 Regular Interest at a rate
in
excess of the Net Mortgage Rate of the Original Mortgage Loan.
On
each
Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall first pay or charge as
an
expense of REMIC 1 all expenses of the Trust Fund for such Distribution Date,
other than any expenses in respect of the Swap Agreement.
On
each
Distribution Date the Securities Administrator shall distribute the aggregate
Interest Remittance Amount (net of expenses described in the preceding
paragraph) with respect to each of the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1 based
on
the above-described interest rates.
On
each
Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall distribute the aggregate
Principal Remittance Amount among the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1 in
accordance with the amount of the Principal Remittance Amount attributable
to
the Mortgage Loan corresponding to each such Lower Tier Interest in REMIC 1.
All
losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated among the Lower Tier Interests
in REMIC 1 in the same manner that principal distributions are
allocated.
On
each
Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall distribute the Prepayment
Premiums collected during the preceding Prepayment Period, in the case of
Principal Prepayments in full, or during the related Collection Period, in
the
case of Principal Prepayments in part, to the Lower Tier Interest in REMIC
1
corresponding to the Mortgage Loan with respect to which such amounts were
received.

On
each
Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall distribute the aggregate
Interest Remittance Amount for the two Mortgage Pools (net of the expenses
paid
by REMIC 1) with respect to each of the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 2 based
on
the above-described interest rates.
On
each
Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall distribute the aggregate
Principal Remittance Amount with respect to the two Mortgage Pools with respect
to the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 2, first to the Class LT2-A Interest until
its principal balance is reduced to zero, and then sequentially, to the other
Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 2 in ascending order of their numerical class
designation, and, with respect to each pair of classes having the same numerical
designation, in equal amounts to each such class, until the principal balance
of
each such class is reduced to zero. All losses on the Mortgage Loans shall
be
allocated among the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 2 in the same manner that
principal distributions are allocated.
On
each
Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall distribute the Prepayment
Premiums collected during the preceding Prepayment Period to the Class LT2-F59
Lower Tier Interest.

___________________________

For
any Distribution Date (and the related Accrual Period) the interest
rate
for each of these Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 3 is a per annum
rate
equal to the weighted average of the interest rates on the Lower
Tier
Interests in REMIC 2 for such Distribution Date, provided,
however, that
for any Distribution Date on which the Class LT3-IO Interest is entitled
to a portion of the interest accruals on a Lower Tier Interest in
REMIC 2
having an “F” in its class designation, as described in footnote two
below, such weighted average shall be computed by first subjecting
the
rate on such Lower Tier Interest in REMIC 2 to a cap equal to Swap
LIBOR
for such Distribution Date.
|
|
(2)
|
The
Class LT3-IO is an interest only class that does not have a principal
balance. For only those Distribution Dates listed in the first column
in
the table below, the Class LT3-IO shall be entitled to interest accrued
on
the Lower Tier Interest in REMIC 2 listed in the second column in
the
table below at a per annum rate equal to the excess, if any, of (i)
the
interest rate for such Lower Tier Interest in REMIC 2 for such
Distribution Date over (ii) Swap LIBOR for such Distribution
Date.

appear on the Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m. (London time), or if the
Telerate Page 3750 is not available on such date, the Securities Administrator
will obtain such rate first
from
Reuters’ “page LIBOR 01,” or if such page is not available, then from
Bloomberg’s page “BBAM.” If any such rate is not published for such LIBOR
Determination Date, LIBOR for such date will be the most recently published
Interest Settlement Rate. In the event that the BBA no longer sets an Interest
Settlement Rate, the Securities Administrator will designate an alternative
index that has performed, or that the Securities Administrator expects to
perform, in a manner substantially similar to the BBA’s Interest Settlement
Rate. The Securities Administrator will select a particular index as the
alternative index only if it receives an Opinion of Counsel (a copy of which
shall be furnished to the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer), which opinion shall
be
an expense reimbursed from the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 4.02,
that the selection of such index will not cause any of the REMICs to lose their
classification as REMICs for federal income tax purposes.

agreed and understood by the Depositor and the Trustee (and the Seller has
so
represented and recognized in the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement) that it is
not
intended that any Mortgage Loan to be included in the Trust Fund be (i) a
“High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in the New Jersey Home Ownership Act effective
November 27, 2003, (ii) a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in the New Mexico
Home Loan Protection Act effective January 1, 2004, (iii) a “High-Cost Home
Mortgage Loan” as defined in the Massachusetts Predatory Home Loan Practices Act
effective November 7, 2004 or (iv) a “High Cost Home Loan” as defined in the
Indiana Home Loan Practices Act effective January 1, 2005.
62
The
foregoing sale, transfer, assignment, set-over, deposit and conveyance does
not
and is not intended to result in the creation or assumption by the Trustee
of
any obligation of the Depositor, the Seller or any other Person in connection
with the Mortgage Loans.
The
Depositor shall have the right to receive any and all loan-level information
regarding the characteristics and performance of the Mortgage Loans upon
request, and to publish, disseminate or otherwise utilize such information
in
its discretion, subject to applicable laws and regulations.
(b) In
connection with such transfer and assignment, the Depositor does hereby deliver
to, and deposit with, or cause to be delivered to and deposited with, the
Trustee, and/or the Custodian acting on the Trustee’s behalf, the following
documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan (each a “Mortgage
File”) so transferred and assigned:
(i) with
respect to each Mortgage Loan, the original Mortgage Note endorsed without

connection with any Mortgage Loan, the Depositor cannot deliver the Mortgage

Date because of a delay caused by the public recording office where such
Mortgage has been delivered for recordation or because such Mortgage or power
of
attorney has been lost, the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered
to
the Trustee (or the Custodian), in the case of a delay due to recording, a
true
copy of such Mortgage or power of attorney, pending delivery of the original
thereof, together with an Officer’s Certificate of the Depositor certifying that
the copy of such Mortgage or power of attorney delivered to the Trustee (or
the
Custodian) is a true copy and that the original of such Mortgage or power of
attorney has been forwarded to the public recording office, or, in the case
of a
Mortgage or power of attorney that has been lost, a copy thereof (certified
as
provided for under the laws of the appropriate jurisdiction) and a written
Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the Trustee and the Depositor that an original
recorded Mortgage or power of attorney is not required to enforce the Trustee’s
interest in the Mortgage Loan;
63
(iv) the
original of each assumption, modification or substitution agreement, if any,
relating to the Mortgage Loans, or, as to any assumption, modification or
substitution agreement which cannot be delivered on or prior to the Closing
Date
because of a delay caused by the public recording office where such assumption,
modification or substitution agreement has been delivered for recordation,
a
photocopy of such assumption, modification or substitution agreement, pending
delivery of the original thereof, together with an Officer’s Certificate of the
Depositor certifying that the copy of such assumption, modification or
substitution agreement delivered to the Trustee (or the Custodian) is a true
copy and that the original of such agreement has been forwarded to the public
recording office;
(v) with
respect to each Non-MERS Mortgage Loan other than a Cooperative Loan, an
original Assignment of Mortgage, in form and substance acceptable for recording.
The Mortgage shall be assigned either (A) in blank, without recourse or (B)
to
“U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee of the Structured Asset Securities
Corporation Mortgage Loan Trust, 2006-BC2,” without recourse;
(vi) if
applicable, such original intervening assignments of the Mortgage, notice of
transfer or equivalent instrument (each, an “Intervening Assignment”), as may be
necessary to show a complete chain of assignment from the originator, or, in
the
case of an Intervening Assignment that has been lost, a written Opinion of
Counsel acceptable to the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer that such original
Intervening Assignment is not required to enforce the Trustee’s interest in the
Mortgage Loan;
(vii) with
respect to any Mortgage Loan other than a Cooperative Loan, the original
mortgagee title insurance policy (or, in lieu thereof, a commitment to issue
such title insurance policy with an original or certified copy of such title
insurance policy to follow as soon after the Closing Date as reasonably
practicable) or attorney’s opinion of title and abstract of title;
(viii) the
original Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy or certificate or, an electronic
certification evidencing the existence of the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy
or certificate, if private mortgage guaranty insurance is required;
(ix) the
original of any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent instrument
executed in connection with the Mortgage or as to any security agreement,
chattel mortgage or their equivalent instrument that cannot be delivered on
or
prior to the Closing Date because of a delay caused by the public recording
office where such document has been delivered for recordation, a photocopy
of
such document, pending delivery of the original thereof, together with an
Officer’s Certificate of the Depositor certifying that the copy of such security
agreement, chattel mortgage or their equivalent instrument delivered to the
Trustee (or the Custodian) is a true copy and that the original of such document
has been forwarded to the public recording office;
(x) with
respect to any Cooperative Loan, the Cooperative Loan Documents;
and
64
(xi) with
respect to any manufactured housing contract, any related manufactured housing
sales contract, installment loan agreement or participation
interest.
The
parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the form of endorsement attached
hereto as Exhibit B-4 is intended to effect the transfer to the Trustee, for
the
benefit of the Certificateholders, of the Mortgage Notes and the
Mortgages.
(c) (i)
Assignments of Mortgage with respect to each Non-MERS Mortgage Loan other than
a
Cooperative Loan shall be recorded; provided, however, that such Assignments
need not be recorded if, on or prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor
delivers, at its own expense, an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee
(which must be Independent counsel) acceptable to the Trustee and the Rating
Agencies, to the effect that recording in such states is not required to protect
the Trustee’s interest in the related Non-MERS Mortgage Loans; provided,
further, that notwithstanding the delivery of any Opinion of Counsel, the Master
Servicer shall direct the applicable Servicer to submit each Assignment of
Mortgage for recording upon the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or
foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage. Subject to
the
preceding sentence, as soon as practicable after the Closing Date (but in no
event more than three months thereafter except to the extent delays are caused
by the applicable recording office), the Master Servicer, at the expense of
the
Depositor and with the cooperation of the applicable Servicer, shall direct
to
be properly recorded by each Servicer in each public recording office where
the
related Mortgages are recorded each Assignment of Mortgage referred to in
subsection (b)(v) above with respect to each Non-MERS Mortgage Loan.
(ii) With
respect to each MERS Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall direct the
applicable Servicer, at the expense of the Depositor, to take such actions
as
are necessary to cause the Trustee to be clearly identified as the owner of
each
such Mortgage Loan on the records of MERS for purposes of the system of
recording transfers of beneficial ownership of mortgages maintained by MERS.
With respect to each Cooperative Loan, the Master Servicer, at the expense
of
the Depositor and with the cooperation of the applicable Servicer, shall direct
such Servicer to take such actions as are necessary under applicable law in
order to perfect the interest of the Trustee in the related Mortgaged
Property.
(d) In
instances where a Title Insurance Policy is required to be delivered to the
Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee under clause (b)(vii) above
and is not so delivered, the Depositor will provide a copy of such Title
Insurance Policy to the Trustee, or to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee,
as promptly as practicable after the execution and delivery hereof, but in
any
case within 180 days of the Closing Date.
(e) For
Mortgage Loans (if any) that have been prepaid in full after the Cut-off Date
and prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor, in lieu of delivering the above
documents, herewith delivers to any NIMS Insurer and the Trustee, or to the
Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, an Officer’s Certificate which shall include
a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection with such
prepayment that are required to be deposited in the Certificate Account pursuant
to Section 4.01 have been so deposited. All original documents that are not
delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee shall be
held
by the Master Servicer or the applicable Servicer in trust for the benefit
of
the Trustee and the Certificateholders.

2.02.

Acceptance
of Trust Fund by Trustee: Review of Documentation for Trust
Fund.
|
(a) The
Trustee, by execution and delivery hereof, acknowledges receipt by it or by
the
Custodian on its behalf of the Mortgage Files pertaining to the Mortgage Loans
listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, subject to review thereof by the Trustee,
or by the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, under this Section 2.02. The
Trustee, or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, will execute and deliver
to
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer on the
Closing Date an Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit
B-1
(or in the form annexed to the Custodial Agreement as Exhibit B-1, as
applicable).
(b) Within
45
days after the Closing Date, the Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the
Trustee, will, for the benefit of Holders of the Certificates, review each
Mortgage File to ascertain that all required documents set forth in Section
2.01
have been received and appear on their face to contain the requisite signatures
by or on behalf of the respective parties thereto, and shall deliver to the
Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and any NIMS Insurer an Interim
Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit B-2 (or in the form annexed
to the Custodial Agreement as Exhibit B-2, as applicable) to the effect that,
as
to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any
Mortgage Loan prepaid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified
in
such certification as not covered by such certification), (i) all of the
applicable documents specified in Section 2.01(b) are in its possession and
(ii)
such documents have been reviewed by it and appear to relate to such Mortgage
Loan. The Trustee, or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, shall determine
whether such documents are executed and endorsed, but shall be under no duty
or
obligation to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments,
certificates or other papers to determine that the same are valid, binding,
legally effective, properly endorsed, genuine, enforceable or appropriate for
the represented purpose or that they have actually been recorded or are in
recordable form or that they are other than what they purport to be on their
face. Neither the Trustee nor the Custodian shall have any responsibility for
verifying the genuineness or the legal effectiveness of or authority for any
signatures of or on behalf of any party or endorser.
(c) If
in the
course of the review described in paragraph (b) above the Trustee or the
Custodian discovers any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage
File that is missing, does not appear regular on its face (i.e.,
is
mutilated, damaged, defaced, torn or otherwise physically altered) or appears
to
be unrelated to the Mortgage Loans identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule
(each, a “Material Defect”), the Trustee, or the Custodian on behalf of the
Trustee, discovering such Material Defect shall promptly identify the Mortgage
Loan to which such Material Defect relates in the Interim Certification
delivered to the Depositor and the Master Servicer. Within 90 days of its
receipt of such notice, the Transferor, or, if the Transferor does not do so,
the Depositor shall be required to cure such Material Defect (and, in such
event, the Depositor shall provide the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate
confirming that such cure has been effected). If the Transferor or the
Depositor, as applicable, does not so cure such Material Defect, the Transferor,
or, if the Transferor does not do so, the Depositor, shall, if a loss has been
incurred with respect to such Mortgage Loan that would, if such Mortgage Loan
were not purchased from the Trust Fund, constitute a Realized Loss, and such
loss is attributable to the failure of the Depositor to cure such Material
Defect, repurchase the related Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase
Price. A loss shall be deemed to be attributable to the failure of the Depositor
to cure a Material Defect if, as determined by the Depositor, upon mutual
agreement with the Trustee each acting in good faith, absent such Material
Defect, such loss would not have been incurred. Within the two-year period
following the Closing Date, the Depositor may, in lieu of repurchasing a
Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.02, substitute for such Mortgage Loan
a
Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan subject to the provisions of Section 2.05.
The failure of the Trustee or the Custodian to give the notice contemplated
herein within 45 days after the Closing Date shall not affect or relieve the
Depositor of its obligation to repurchase any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this
Section 2.02 or any other Section of this Agreement requiring the repurchase
of
Mortgage Loans from the Trust Fund.
66
(d) Within
180 days following the Closing Date, the Trustee, or the Custodian, shall
deliver to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and any NIMS Insurer
a Final Certification substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B-3 (or
in
the form annexed to the Custodial Agreement as Exhibit B-3, as applicable)
evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files in its possession or control,
with any exceptions noted thereto.
(e) Nothing
in this Agreement shall be construed to constitute an assumption by the Trust
Fund, the Trustee, the Custodian or the Certificateholders of any unsatisfied
duty, claim or other liability on any Mortgage Loan or to any
Mortgagor.
(f) Each
of
the parties hereto acknowledges that the Custodian shall perform the applicable
review of the Mortgage Loans and respective certifications thereof as provided
in this Section 2.02 and the Custodial Agreement. The Trustee is hereby
authorized and directed by the Depositor to appoint the Custodian and to execute
and deliver the Custodial Agreement and to execute and deliver Transaction
Addendum SASCO 2006-BC2 to the Master Consulting Agreement with the Credit
Risk
Manager.
(g) Upon
execution of this Agreement, the Depositor hereby delivers to the Trustee and
the Trustee acknowledges a receipt of the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement, each
Servicing Agreement and the Bulk PMI Policies. The Depositor hereby directs
the
Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee hereunder, to execute and deliver,
concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Bulk PMI
Policies and each Servicing Agreement to which the Trustee is a
party.

power
and authority to own its property, to carry on its business as presently
conducted, to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement,
and
to create the trust pursuant hereto;
(ii) the
execution and delivery by the Depositor of this Agreement have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Depositor;
neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation
of
the transactions herein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions hereof,
will conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under,
any
of the provisions of any law, governmental rule, regulation, judgment, decree
or
order binding on the Depositor or its properties or the certificate of
incorporation or bylaws of the Depositor;
67
(iii) the
execution, delivery and performance by the Depositor of this Agreement and
the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby do not require the consent
or approval of, the giving of notice to, the registration with, or the taking
of
any other action in respect of, any state, federal or other governmental
authority or agency, except such as has been obtained, given, effected or taken
prior to the date hereof;
(iv) this
Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Depositor and, assuming
due authorization, execution and delivery by the Trustee, the Master Servicer,
the Credit Risk Manager and the Securities Administrator, constitutes a valid
and binding obligation of the Depositor enforceable against it in accordance
with its terms except as such enforceability may be subject to (A) applicable
bankruptcy and insolvency laws and other similar laws affecting the enforcement
of the rights of creditors generally and (B) general principles of equity
regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity
or at law;
(v) there
are
no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Depositor,

respect to any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (B) with
respect to any other matter which in the judgment of the Depositor will be

Depositor materially and adversely affect it or its business, assets, operations
or condition, financial or otherwise, or adversely affect its ability to perform
its obligations under this Agreement; and
(vi) immediately
prior to the transfer and assignment of the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee,
the
Depositor was the sole owner of record and holder of each Mortgage Loan, and
the
Depositor had good and marketable title thereto, and had full right to transfer
and sell each Mortgage Loan to the Trustee free and clear, subject only to
(1)
liens of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable
and, if the related Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit, any lien for
common charges permitted by statute, (2) covenants, conditions and restrictions,
rights of way, easements and other matters of public record as of the date
of
recording of such Mortgage acceptable to mortgage lending institutions in the
area in which the related Mortgaged Property is located and specifically
referred to in the lender’s Title Insurance Policy or attorney’s opinion of
title and abstract of title delivered to the originator of such Mortgage Loan,
and (3) such other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which
do not, individually or in the aggregate, materially interfere with the benefits
of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage, of any encumbrance,
equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security
interest, and had full right and authority, subject to no interest or
participation of, or agreement with, any other party, to sell and assign each
Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement.
68
(b) The
representations and warranties of the Transferor with respect to the related
Mortgage Loans in the Transfer Agreement, which have been assigned to the
Trustee hereunder, were made as of the date specified in the Transfer Agreement
(or underlying agreement, if such Transfer Agreement is in the form of an
assignment of a prior agreement). To the extent that any fact, condition or
event with respect to a Mortgage Loan constitutes a breach of both (i) a
representation or warranty of the Transferor under the Transfer Agreement and
(ii) a representation or warranty of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Sale
Agreement, the only right or remedy of the Trustee, any Certificateholder or
any
NIMS Insurer hereunder shall be their rights to enforce the obligations of
the
Transferor under any applicable representation or warranty made by it. The
Trustee acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in the Mortgage Loan
Sale Agreement, the Seller shall not have any obligation or liability with
respect to any breach of a representation or warranty made by it with respect
to
the Mortgage Loans sold by it if the fact, condition or event constituting
such
breach also constitutes a breach of a representation or warranty made by the
Transferor in the Transfer Agreement, without regard to whether such Transferor
fulfills its contractual obligations in respect of such representation or
warranty. The Trustee further acknowledges that the Depositor shall have no
obligation or liability with respect to any breach of any representation or
warranty with respect to the Mortgage Loans (except as set forth in Section
2.03(a)(vi)) under any circumstances.

Section
2.04.
|
Discovery
of Breach.
|
It
is
understood and agreed that the representations and warranties (i) of the
Depositor set forth in Section 2.03, (ii) of the Seller set forth in the
Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement and assigned to the Depositor by the Seller under
the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement and to the Trustee by the Depositor hereunder
and (iii) of the Transferor and of each Servicer assigned by the Seller to
the
Depositor pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement and assigned to the
Trustee by the Depositor hereunder, shall each survive delivery of the Mortgage
Files and the Assignment of Mortgage of each Mortgage Loan to the Trustee and
shall continue throughout the term of this Agreement. Upon discovery by any
of
the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee
of a breach of any of such representations and warranties that adversely and
materially affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan, the party discovering
such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties. Within 90
days of the discovery of a breach of any representation or warranty given to
the
Trustee by the Depositor or given by the Transferor or the Seller and assigned
to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Transferor or the Seller, as applicable,
shall either (a) cure such breach in all material respects, (b) repurchase
such
Mortgage Loan or any property acquired in respect thereof from the Trustee
at
the Purchase Price (or in the case of a First Payment Default Mortgage Loan
or a
Delinquency Default Mortgage Loan, the PPTL Purchase Price (excluding any PPTL
Premium) or FPD Purchase Price (excluding any FPD Premium)) or (c) within the
two-year period following the Closing Date, substitute a Qualifying Substitute
Mortgage Loan for the affected Mortgage Loan. In the event of discovery of
a
breach of any representation and warranty of the Transferor assigned to the
Trustee, the Trustee shall enforce its rights under the Transfer Agreement
and
the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement for the benefit of Certificateholders and
any
NIMS Insurer. As provided in the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement, if the Transferor
substitutes a mortgage loan for a Deleted Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Transfer
Agreement and such substitute mortgage loan is not a Qualifying Substitute
Mortgage Loan, then pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement
the Seller will, in exchange for such substitute mortgage loan, (i) pay to
the
Trust Fund the applicable Purchase Price for the affected Mortgage Loan or
(ii) within two years of the Closing Date, substitute a Qualifying
Substitute Mortgage Loan.
69

Section
2.05.
|
Repurchase,
Purchase or Substitution of Mortgage
Loans.
|
(a) With
respect to any Mortgage Loan repurchased by the Depositor pursuant to this
Agreement, by the Seller pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement or by
the
Transferor pursuant to the Transfer Agreement, the principal portion of the
funds (including the FPD Purchase Price (excluding any FPD Premium) or PPTL
Purchase Price (excluding any PPTL Premium) in the case of a First Payment
Default Mortgage Loan or Delinquency Default Mortgage Loan) received by the
Trustee in respect of such repurchase of a Mortgage Loan will be considered
a
Principal Prepayment and the Purchase Price, PPTL Purchase Price (excluding
any
PPTL Premium) or FPD Purchase Price (excluding any FPD Premium), as applicable,
shall be deposited in the Certificate Account or a Custodial Account, as
applicable. The Trustee (i) upon receipt of the full amount of the Purchase
Price for a Deleted Mortgage Loan, (ii) upon receipt of a written certification
from the Master Servicer that it has received the full amount of the Purchase
Price for a Deleted Mortgage Loan and has deposited such amount in the
Certificate Account or (iii) upon receipt of notification from the Custodian
that it had received the Mortgage File for a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage
Loan
substituted for a Deleted Mortgage Loan (and any applicable Substitution
Amount), shall release or cause to be released and reassign to the Depositor,
the Seller or the Transferor, as applicable, the related Mortgage File for
the
Deleted Mortgage Loan and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer
or assignment, in each case without recourse, representation or warranty, as
shall be necessary to vest in such party or its designee or assignee title
to
any Deleted Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto, free and clear of all
security interests, liens and other encumbrances created by this Agreement,
which instruments shall be prepared by the related Servicer and the Trustee
shall have no further responsibility with respect to the Mortgage File relating
to such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Seller indemnifies and holds the Trust Fund,
the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Depositor,
and NIMS Insurer and each Certificateholder harmless against any and all taxes,
claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related
costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Trust Fund,
the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Depositor,
any NIMS Insurer and any Certificateholder may sustain in connection with any
actions of such Seller relating to a repurchase of a Mortgage Loan other than
in
compliance with the terms of this Section 2.05 and the Mortgage Loan Sale
Agreement, to the extent that any such action causes an Adverse REMIC
Event.
(b) With
respect to each Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan to be delivered to the
Trustee (or the Custodian) pursuant to the terms of this Article II in exchange
for a Deleted Mortgage Loan: (i) the Depositor, the Transferor or the Seller,
as
applicable, must deliver to the Trustee (or the Custodian) the Mortgage File
for
the Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan containing the documents set forth
in
Section 2.01(b) along with a written certification certifying as to the delivery
of such Mortgage File and containing granting language substantially comparable
to that set forth in the first paragraph of Section 2.01(a); and (ii) the
Depositor will be deemed to have made, with respect to such Qualifying
Substitute Mortgage Loan, each of the representations and warranties made by
it
with respect to the related Deleted Mortgage Loan. As soon as practicable after
the delivery of any Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan hereunder, the Master
Servicer, at the expense of the Depositor and at the direction and with the
cooperation of the applicable Servicer, shall (i) with respect to a
Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan that is a Non-MERS Mortgage Loan, cause
the
Assignment of Mortgage to be recorded by the applicable Servicer if required
pursuant to Section 2.01(c), or (ii) with respect to a Qualifying Substitute
Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage Loan, cause to be taken such actions
as
are necessary to cause the Trustee to be clearly identified as the owner of
each
such Mortgage Loan on the records of MERS if required pursuant to Section
2.01(c).
70
(c) Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the right to substitute Mortgage Loans
pursuant to this Article II shall be subject to the additional limitations
that
no substitution of a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan for a Deleted Mortgage
Loan shall be made unless the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer has received an
Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee (at the expense of the party seeking
to make the substitution) that, under current law, such substitution will not
cause an Adverse REMIC Event.
|
Section
2.06.
|
Grant
Clause.
|
(a) It
is
intended that the conveyance of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and
to property constituting the Trust Fund pursuant to this Agreement shall
constitute, and shall be construed as, a sale of such property and not a grant
of a security interest to secure a loan. However, if such conveyance is deemed
to be in respect of a loan, it is intended that: (1) the rights and obligations
of the parties shall be established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement;
(2)
the Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of
the
Certificates a first priority security interest to secure repayment of an
obligation in an amount equal to the aggregate Class Principal Amount of the
Certificates (or the aggregate principal balance of the Lower Tier REMIC 1
Uncertificated Regular Interests, if applicable) in all of the Depositor’s
right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired, the Trust Fund, the Supplemental Interest Trust and all proceeds
of
any and all property constituting the Trust Fund and the Supplemental Interest
Trust to secure payment of the Certificates or Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated
Regular Interests, as applicable (such security interest being, to the extent
of
the assets that constitute the Supplemental Interest Trust, pari
passu
with the
security interest as provided in clause (4) below); (3) this Agreement shall
constitute a security agreement under applicable law; and (4) the Swap
Counterparty shall be deemed, during the term of such agreement and while such
agreement is the property of the Trustee, to have a security interest in all
of
the assets that constitute the Supplemental Interest Trust, but only to the
extent of such Swap Counterparty’s right to payment under the Swap Agreement
(such security interest being pari
passu
with the
security interest as provided in clause (2) above). If such conveyance is deemed
to be in respect of a loan and the trust created by this Agreement terminates
prior to the satisfaction of the claims of any Person holding any Certificate
or
Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests, as applicable, the security
interest created hereby shall continue in full force and effect and the Trustee
shall be deemed to be the collateral agent for the benefit of such Person,
and
all proceeds shall be distributed as herein provided.
71
(b) The
Depositor shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such
reasonable actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were
deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans and the other
property described above, such security interest would be deemed to be a
perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and shall
be
maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement. The Depositor shall,
at its own expense, make all initial filings on or about the Closing Date and
shall forward a copy of such filing or filings to the Trustee. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Depositor shall prepare and forward for
filing, or shall cause to be forwarded for filing, at the expense of the
Depositor, all filings necessary to maintain the effectiveness of any original
filings necessary under the relevant UCC to perfect the Trustee’s security
interest in or lien on the Mortgage Loans, including without limitation (x)
continuation statements, and (y) such other statements as may be occasioned
by
(1) any change of name of the Seller, the Depositor or the Trustee, (2) any
change of location of the jurisdiction of organization of the Seller or the
Depositor, (3) any transfer of any interest of the Seller or the Depositor
in
any Mortgage Loan or (4) any change under the relevant UCC or other applicable
laws. Neither the Seller nor the Depositor shall organize under the law of
any
jurisdiction other than the State under which each is organized as of the
Closing Date (whether changing its jurisdiction of organization or organizing
under an additional jurisdiction) without giving 30 days prior written notice
of
such action to its immediate and intermediate transferee, including the Trustee.
Before effecting such change, the Seller or the Depositor proposing to change
its jurisdiction of organization shall prepare and file in the appropriate
filing office any financing statements or other statements necessary to continue
the perfection of the interests of its immediate and intermediate transferees,
including the Trustee, in the Mortgage Loans. In connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of the Seller and the
Depositor authorizes its immediate or intermediate transferee to file in any
filing office any initial financing statements, any amendments to financing
statements, any continuation statements, or any other statements or filings
described in this paragraph (b).

governed by Article 8 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code. The Book-Entry
Certificates will be evidenced by one or more certificates, beneficial ownership
of which will be held in the dollar denominations in Certificate Principal
Amount, or in the Percentage Interests, specified herein. Each Class of
Book-Entry Certificates will be issued in the minimum denominations in
Certificate Principal Amount specified in the Preliminary Statement hereto
and

(b) The

original issue, be authenticated by the Securities Administrator upon the order
of the Depositor upon receipt by the Trustee (or its Custodian) of the Mortgage
Files described in Section 2.01. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit
under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on
such
Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided
for herein, executed by an authorized officer of the Securities Administrator
or
the Authenticating Agent, if any, by manual signature, and such certification
upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that
such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All
Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication. At any time and
from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
Depositor may deliver Certificates executed by the Depositor to the Securities
Administrator or the Authenticating Agent for authentication and the Securities
Administrator or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver such
Certificates as in this Agreement provided and not otherwise.

for The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) and registered in the name of a nominee
of DTC, duly executed and authenticated by the Securities Administrator as

thereby with the Securities Administrator, as custodian for DTC and registered
in the name of a nominee of DTC, duly executed and authenticated by the
Securities Administrator as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal
amounts of the Regulation S Global Securities may from time to time be increased

3.02.

Registration.
|
The
Securities Administrator is hereby appointed, and hereby accepts its appointment
as, Certificate Registrar in respect of the Certificates (and, after a Section
7.01(c) Purchase Event, the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests)
and shall maintain books for the registration and for the transfer of
Certificates (and, after a Section 7.01(c) Purchase Event, the Lower Tier REMIC
1 Uncertificated Regular Interests) (the “Certificate Register”). The Securities
Administrator may appoint a bank or trust company to act as Certificate
Registrar. A registration book shall be maintained for the Certificates (and
Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests, as the case may be)
collectively. The Certificate Registrar may resign or be discharged or removed
and a new successor may be appointed in accordance with the procedures and
requirements set forth in Sections 6.06 and 6.07 hereof with respect to the
resignation, discharge or removal of the Securities Administrator and the
appointment of a successor Securities Administrator. The Certificate Registrar
may appoint, by a written instrument delivered to the Holders, any NIMS Insurer
and the Master Servicer, any bank or trust company to act as co-registrar under
such conditions as the Certificate Registrar may prescribe; provided,
however,
that the
Certificate Registrar shall not be relieved of any of its duties or
responsibilities hereunder by reason of such appointment.
73
Upon
the
occurrence of a Section 7.01(c) Purchase Event, the Master Servicer shall
provide the Securities Administrator with written notice of the identity of
any
transferee of the Master Servicer’s interest in the Lower Tier REMIC 1
Uncertificated Regular Interests, which notice shall contain a certification
that such transferee is a permitted LTURI-holder hereunder. The Lower Tier
REMIC
1 Uncertificated Regular Interests may only be transferred in whole and not
in
part to no more than one LTURI-holder at a time who is either (1) an affiliate
of the Master Servicer or (2) a trustee of a privately placed securitization.
The Securities Administrator and the Depositor shall treat the Person in whose
name the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests are registered
on
the books of the Certificate Registrar as the LTURI-holder for all purposes
hereunder.
|
Section
3.03.
|
Transfer
and Exchange of Certificates.
|
(a) A
Certificate (other than a Book-Entry Certificate which shall be subject to
Section 3.09 hereof) may be transferred by the Holder thereof only upon
presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate
Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by an assignment duly executed by such
Holder or his duly authorized attorney in such form as shall be satisfactory
to
the Certificate Registrar. Upon the transfer of any Certificate in accordance
with the preceding sentence, the Securities Administrator shall execute, and
the
Securities Administrator or any Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and
deliver to the transferee, one or more new Certificates of the same Class and
evidencing, in the aggregate, the same aggregate Certificate Principal Amount
or
Percentage Interest as the Certificate being transferred. No service charge
shall be made to a Certificateholder for any registration of transfer of
Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection with any registration of transfer of Certificates.
(b) A
Certificate may be exchanged by the Holder thereof for any number of new
Certificates of the same Class, in authorized denominations, representing in
the
aggregate the same Certificate Principal Amount or Percentage Interest as the
Certificate surrendered, upon surrender of the Certificate to be exchanged
at
the office of the Certificate Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer duly executed by such Holder or his duly
authorized attorney in such form as is satisfactory to the Certificate
Registrar. Certificates delivered upon any such exchange will evidence the
same
obligations, and will be entitled to the same rights and privileges, as the
Certificates surrendered. No service charge shall be made to a Certificateholder
for any exchange of Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may
be
imposed in connection with any exchange of Certificates. Whenever any
Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Securities Administrator
shall
execute, and the Securities Administrator or the Authenticating Agent shall
authenticate, date and deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder
making the exchange is entitled to receive.
74
(c) By
acceptance of a Restricted Certificate or a Regulation S Global Security,
whether upon original issuance or subsequent transfer, each Holder of such
a
Certificate acknowledges the restrictions on the transfer of such Certificate
set forth thereon and agrees that it will transfer such a Certificate only
as
provided herein. In addition, each Holder of a Regulation S Global Security
shall be deemed to have represented and warranted to the Securities
Administrator, the Certificate Registrar and any of their respective successors
that: (i) such Person is not a U.S. person within the meaning of Regulation
S
and was, at the time the buy order was originated, outside the United States
and
(ii) such Person understands that such Certificates have not been registered
under the Securities Act, and that (x) until the expiration of the 40-day
distribution compliance period (within the meaning of Regulation S), no offer,
sale, pledge or other transfer of such Certificates or any interest therein
shall be made in the United States or to or for the account or benefit of a
U.S.
person (each as defined in Regulation S), (y) if in the future it decides to
offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer such Certificates, such Certificates
may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only (A) to a person
which the seller reasonably believes is a “qualified institutional buyer” (a
“QIB”) as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act, that is purchasing such
Certificates for its own account or for the account of a qualified institutional
buyer to which notice is given that the transfer is being made in reliance
on
Rule 144A or (B) in an offshore transaction (as defined in Regulation S) in
compliance with the provisions of Regulation S, in each case in compliance
with
the requirements of this Agreement; and it will notify such transferee of the
transfer restrictions specified in this Section.
The
following restrictions shall apply with respect to the transfer and registration
of transfer of a Restricted Certificate to a transferee that takes delivery
in
the form of a Definitive Certificate:
(i) The
Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer of a Restricted Certificate
if
the requested transfer is (x) to the Depositor or the Placement Agent, an
affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) of the Depositor
or
the Placement Agent or (y) being made to a “qualified institutional buyer” (a
“QIB”) as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act by a transferor that has
provided the Securities Administrator with a certificate in the form of Exhibit
F hereto; and
(ii) The
Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer of a Restricted Certificate
if
the requested transfer is being made to an “accredited investor” under Rule
501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act, or to any Person all of
the
equity owners in which are such accredited investors, by a transferor who
furnishes to the Securities Administrator a letter of the transferee
substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto.
75
(d) (i)
No
transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate in the form of a Definitive
Certificate shall be made to any Person unless the Securities Administrator
has
received (A) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto (or
Exhibit D-1, in the case of a Residual Certificate) from such transferee or
(B)
an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Securities Administrator, to the
effect that the purchase and holding of such a Certificate will not constitute
or result in prohibited transactions under Title I of ERISA or Section 4975
of
the Code and will not subject the Trustee, the Master Servicer, any Servicer,
the Securities Administrator, any NIMS Insurer or the Depositor to any
obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Agreement; provided,
however,
that the
Securities Administrator will not require such certificate or opinion in the
event that, as a result of a change of law or otherwise, counsel satisfactory
to
the Securities Administrator, has rendered an opinion to the effect that the
purchase and holding of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate by a Plan or a Person
that is purchasing or holding such a Certificate with the assets of a Plan
will
not constitute or result in a prohibited transaction under Title I of ERISA
or
Section 4975 of the Code. Each Transferee of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate
that is a Book-Entry Certificate shall be deemed to have made the
representations set forth in Exhibit H. The preparation and delivery of the
certificate and opinions referred to above shall not be an expense of the Trust
Fund, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, any NIMS
Insurer or the Depositor.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no opinion or certificate shall be required for the initial
issuance of the ERISA-Restricted Certificates. The Securities Administrator
shall have no obligation to monitor transfers of Book-Entry Certificates that
are ERISA-Restricted Certificates and shall have no liability for transfers
of
such Certificates in violation of the transfer restrictions. The Securities
Administrator shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration
of
transfer of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is in fact not permitted
by
this Section 3.03(d) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to
the
Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under
the
provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was registered by the
Securities Administrator in accordance with the foregoing requirements. The
Securities Administrator shall be entitled, but not obligated, to recover from
any Holder of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that was in fact a Plan or a
Person acting on behalf of any such Plan any payments made on such
ERISA-Restricted Certificate at and after either such time. Any such payments
so
recovered by the Securities Administrator shall be paid and delivered by the
Securities Administrator to the last preceding Holder of such Certificate that
is not such a Plan or Person acting on behalf of a Plan.
(ii) No
transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate shall be made prior to the
termination of the Swap Agreement and the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, unless
the Securities Administrator shall have received a representation letter from
the transferee of such Certificate, substantially in the form set forth in
Exhibit H, to the effect that either (i) such transferee is neither a Plan
nor a
Person acting on behalf of any such Plan or using the assets of any such Plan
to
effect such transfer or (ii) the acquisition and holding of the ERISA-Restricted
Trust Certificate are eligible for exemptive relief under Prohibited Transaction
Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 84-14, XXXX 00-0, XXXX 00-00, XXXX 95-60 or PTCE 96-23.
Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, prior to the termination
of the Swap Agreement and the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, any purported
transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate on behalf of a Plan without
the delivery to the Securities Administrator of a representation letter as
described above shall be void and of no effect. If the ERISA-Restricted Trust
Certificate is a Book-Entry Certificate, prior to the termination of the Swap
Agreement and the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, the transferee will be deemed
to
have made a representation as provided in clause (i) or (ii) of this paragraph,
as applicable.
76
If
any
ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate, or any interest therein, is acquired or
held
in violation of the provisions of the preceding paragraph, the next preceding
permitted beneficial owner will be treated as the beneficial owner of that
Certificate, retroactive to the date of transfer to the purported beneficial
owner. Any purported beneficial owner whose acquisition or holding of an
ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate, or interest therein, was effected in
violation of the provisions of the preceding paragraph shall indemnify to the
extent permitted by law and hold harmless the Depositor, the Securities
Administrator, the Trustee, any NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer from and
against any and all liabilities, claims, costs or expenses incurred by such
parties as a result of such acquisition or holding.
To
the
extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not limited to, ERISA),
the Securities Administrator shall be under no liability to any Person for
any
registration of transfer of any ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate that is
in
fact not permitted by this Section 3.03(d)(ii) or for making any payments due
on
such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect
to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer
was registered by the Securities Administrator in accordance with the foregoing
requirements.
(e) As
a
condition of the registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate, the
Certificate Registrar may require the certified taxpayer identification number
of the owner of the Certificate and the payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any
tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith; provided,
however,
that the
Certificate Registrar shall have no obligation to require such payment or to
determine whether or not any such tax or charge may be applicable. No service
charge shall be made to the Certificateholder for any registration, transfer
or
exchange of a Certificate.
(f) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, no Residual Certificate may be owned,
pledged or transferred, directly or indirectly, by or to (i) a Disqualified
Organization or (ii) an individual, corporation or partnership or other person
unless such person is (A) not a Non-U.S. Person or (B) is a Non-U.S. Person
that
holds a Residual Certificate in connection with the conduct of a trade or
business within the United States and has furnished the transferor and the
Securities Administrator with an effective Internal Revenue Service W-8ECI
or
successor form at the time and in the manner required by the Code (any such
person who is not covered by clause (A) or (B) above is referred to herein
as a
“Non-permitted Foreign Holder”).
77
Prior
to
and as a condition of the registration of any transfer, sale or other
disposition of a Residual Certificate, the proposed transferee shall deliver
to
the Securities Administrator an affidavit in substantially the form attached
hereto as Exhibit D-1 representing and warranting, among other things, that
such
transferee is neither a Disqualified Organization, an agent or nominee acting
on
behalf of a Disqualified Organization, nor a Non-Permitted Foreign Holder (any
such transferee, a “Permitted Transferee”), and the proposed transferor shall
deliver to the Securities Administrator an affidavit in substantially the form
attached hereto as Exhibit D-2. In addition, the Securities Administrator may
(but shall have no obligation to) require, prior to and as a condition of any
such transfer, the delivery by the proposed transferee of an Opinion of Counsel,
addressed to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator,
any NIMS Insurer and the Trustee satisfactory in form and substance to the
Depositor, that such proposed transferee or, if the proposed transferee is
an
agent or nominee, the proposed beneficial owner, is not a Disqualified
Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or a Non-Permitted Foreign Holder.
Notwithstanding the registration in the Certificate Register of any transfer,
sale, or other disposition of a Residual Certificate to a Disqualified
Organization, an agent or nominee thereof, or Non-Permitted Foreign Holder,
such
registration shall be deemed to be of no legal force or effect whatsoever and
such Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-Permitted
Foreign Holder shall not be deemed to be a Certificateholder for any purpose
hereunder, including, but not limited to, the receipt of distributions on such
Residual Certificate. The Securities Administrator shall not be under any
liability to any person for any registration or transfer of a Residual
Certificate to a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof or
Non-permitted Foreign Holder or for the maturity of any payments due on such
Residual Certificate to the Holder thereof or for taking any other action with
respect to such Holder under the provisions of the Agreement, so long as the
transfer was effected in accordance with this Section 3.03(f), unless a
Responsible Officer of the Securities Administrator shall have actual knowledge
at the time of such transfer or the time of such payment or other action that
the transferee is a Disqualified Organization, or an agent or nominee thereof,
or Non-permitted Foreign Holder. The Securities Administrator shall be entitled,
but not obligated, to recover from any Holder of a Residual Certificate that
was
a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign
Holder at the time it became a Holder or any subsequent time it became a
Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign
Holder, all payments made on such Residual Certificate at and after either
such
times (and all costs and expenses, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees,
incurred in connection therewith). Any payment (not including any such costs
and
expenses) so recovered by the Securities Administrator shall be paid and
delivered to the last preceding Holder of such Residual
Certificate.
If
any
purported transferee shall become a registered Holder of a Residual Certificate
in violation of the provisions of this Section 3.03(f), then upon receipt of
written notice to the Securities Administrator that the registration of transfer
of such Residual Certificate was not in fact permitted by this Section 3.03(f),
the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored to all rights as
Holder thereof retroactive to the date of such registration of transfer of
such
Residual Certificate. The Securities Administrator shall be under no liability
to any Person for any registration of transfer of a Residual Certificate that
is
in fact not permitted by this Section 3.03(f), for making any payment due on
such Certificate to the registered Holder thereof or for taking any other action
with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long
as
the transfer was registered upon receipt of the affidavit described in the
preceding paragraph of this Section 3.03(f).
(g) Each
Holder or Certificate Owner of a Restricted Certificate, ERISA-Restricted
Certificate or Residual Certificate, or an interest therein, by such Holder’s or
Owner’s acceptance thereof, shall be deemed for all purposes to have consented
to the provisions of this section.
78
(h) Notwithstanding
any provision to the contrary herein, so long as a Global Security representing
any Class B1 or Class B2 Certificate remains outstanding and is held by or
on
behalf of DTC, transfers of a Global Security representing any such
Certificates, in whole or in part, shall only be made in accordance with Section
3.01 and this Section 3.03(h).
(A) Subject
to clauses (B) and (C) of this Section 3.03(h), transfers of a Global Security
representing any Class B1 or Class B2 Certificate shall be limited to transfers
of such Global Security, in whole or in part, to nominees of DTC or to a
successor of DTC or such successor’s nominee.
(B) Restricted
Global Security to Regulation S Global Security. If a holder of a beneficial
interest in a Restricted Global Security deposited with or on behalf of DTC
wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Restricted Global Security
for an interest in a Regulation S Global Security, or to transfer its interest
in such Restricted Global Security to a Person who wishes to take delivery
thereof in the form of an interest in a Regulation S Global Security, such
holder, provided such holder is not a U.S. person, may, subject to the rules
and
procedures of DTC, exchange or cause the exchange of such interest for an
equivalent beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security. Upon receipt
by the Securities Administrator, as Certificate Registrar, of (I) instructions
from DTC directing the Securities Administrator, as Certificate Registrar,
to be
credited a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Security in an amount
equal to the beneficial interest in such Restricted Global Security to be
exchanged but not less than the minimum denomination applicable to such holder’s
Certificates held through a Regulation S Global Security, (II) a written order
given in accordance with DTC’s procedures containing information regarding the
participant account of DTC and, in the case of a transfer pursuant to and in
accordance with Regulation S, the Euroclear or Clearstream account to be
credited with such increase and (III) a certificate in the form of Exhibit
M-1
hereto given by the holder of such beneficial interest stating that the exchange
or transfer of such interest has been made in compliance with the transfer
restrictions applicable to the Global Securities, including that the holder
is
not a U.S. person, and pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation S, the
Securities Administrator, as Certificate Registrar, shall reduce the principal
amount of the Restricted Global Security and increase the principal amount
of
the Regulation S Global Security by the aggregate principal amount of the
beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security to be exchanged, and
shall
instruct Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, concurrently with such
reduction, to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person
specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global
Security equal to the reduction in the principal amount of the Restricted Global
Security.
79
(C) Regulation
S Global Security to Restricted Global Security. If a holder of a beneficial
interest in a Regulation S Global Security deposited with or on behalf of DTC
wishes at any time to transfer its interest in such Regulation S Global Security
to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest
in a
Restricted Global Security, such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures
of DTC, exchange or cause the exchange of such interest for an equivalent
beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security. Upon receipt by the
Securities Administrator, as Certificate Registrar, of (I) instructions from
DTC
directing the Securities Administrator, as Certificate Registrar, to cause
to be
credited a beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security in an amount
equal to the beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Security to be
exchanged but not less than the minimum denomination applicable to such holder’s
Certificates held through a Restricted Global Security, to be exchanged, such
instructions to contain information regarding the participant account with
DTC
to be credited with such increase, and (II) a certificate in the form of Exhibit
M-2 hereto given by the holder of such beneficial interest and stating, among
other things, that the Person transferring such interest in such Regulation
S
Global Security reasonably believes that the Person acquiring such interest
in a
Restricted Global Security is a QIB, is obtaining such beneficial interest
in a
transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A under the Securities Act
and
in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any State of the United
States or any other jurisdiction, then the Securities Administrator, as
Certificate Registrar, will reduce the principal amount of the Regulation S
Global Security and increase the principal amount of the Restricted Global
Security by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial interest in the
Regulation S Global Security to be transferred and the Securities Administrator,
as Certificate Registrar, shall instruct DTC, concurrently with such reduction,
to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in
such
instructions a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security equal
to
the reduction in the principal amount of the Regulation S Global
Security.
(D) Other
Exchanges. In the event that a Global Security is exchanged for Certificates
in
definitive registered form without interest coupons, pursuant to Section 3.09(c)
hereof, such Certificates may be exchanged for one another only in accordance
with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions above
(including certification requirements intended to insure that such transfers
comply with Rule 144A, comply with Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) or are to
non-U.S. persons in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act,
as
the case may be), and as may be from time to time adopted by the Securities
Administrator.
(E) Restrictions
on U.S. Transfers. Transfers of interests in the Regulation S Global Security
to
U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S) shall be limited to transfers made
pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.03(l)(C).

Section
3.05.
|
Replacement
of Certificates.
|
If
(i)
any Certificate is mutilated and is surrendered to the Securities Administrator
or any Authenticating Agent or (ii) the Securities Administrator or any
Authenticating Agent receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction,
loss or theft of any Certificate, and there is delivered to the Securities
Administrator and the Authenticating Agent and any NIMS Insurer such security
or
indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in
the
absence of notice to the Securities Administrator and any Authenticating Agent
that such destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate has been acquired by a bona
fide
purchaser, the Securities Administrator shall execute and the Securities
Administrator or any Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in
exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen
Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and Certificate Principal Amount.
Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 3.05, the Securities
Administrator and Authenticating Agent may require the payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed
in
relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of
the
Securities Administrator or the Authenticating Agent) connected therewith.
Any
replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 3.05 shall constitute
complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the applicable Trust Fund,
as
if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate
shall be found at any time.

the preparation of definitive Certificates, upon the order of the Depositor,
the
Securities Administrator shall execute and shall authenticate and deliver
temporary Certificates that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed
or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the
tenor of the definitive Certificates in lieu of which they are issued and with
such variations as the authorized officers executing such Certificates may
determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Certificates.
(b) If
temporary Certificates are issued, the Depositor will cause definitive
Certificates to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation
of
definitive Certificates, the temporary Certificates shall be exchangeable for
definitive Certificates upon surrender of the temporary Certificates at the
office or agency of the Securities Administrator without charge to the Holder.
Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Certificates,
the
Securities Administrator shall execute and authenticate and deliver in exchange
therefor a like aggregate Certificate Principal Amount of definitive
Certificates of the same Class in the authorized denominations. Until so
exchanged, the temporary Certificates shall in all respects be entitled to
the
same benefits under this Agreement as definitive Certificates of the same
Class.

3.09(c):
(i) the
provisions of this Section 3.09 shall be in full force and effect;
(ii) the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Paying Agent,
the Registrar, any NIMS Insurer and the Trustee may deal with the Clearing
Agency for all purposes (including the making of distributions on the Book-Entry

the Clearing Agency shall be responsible for crediting the amount of such
distributions to the accounts of such Persons entitled thereto, in accordance
with the Clearing Agency’s normal procedures;
(iii) to
the
extent that the provisions of this Section 3.09 conflict with any other
provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 3.09 shall control;
and
(iv) the
rights of Certificate Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency
and the Clearing Agency Participants and shall be limited to those established
by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency

will make book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and
receive and transmit distributions of principal of and interest on the
Book-Entry Certificates to such Clearing Agency Participants.
(b) Whenever
notice or other communication to the Certificateholders is required under this
Agreement, unless and until Definitive Certificates shall have been issued
to
Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 3.09(c), the Securities Administrator
shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given
to
Holders of the Book-Entry Certificates to the Clearing Agency.
83
(c) If
(i)
(A) the Depositor advises the Securities Administrator in writing that the
Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its
responsibilities with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates, and (B) the
Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor or (ii) after the occurrence
of an Event of Default, Certificate Owners representing beneficial interests
aggregating not less than 50% of the Class Principal Amount of a Class of
Book-Entry Certificates identified as such to the Securities Administrator
by an
Officer’s Certificate from the Clearing Agency advise the Securities
Administrator and the Clearing Agency through the Clearing Agency Participants
in writing that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Clearing
Agency is no longer in the best interests of the Certificate Owners of a Class
of Book-Entry Certificates, the Securities Administrator shall notify any NIMS
Insurer and shall notify or cause the Certificate Registrar to notify the
Clearing Agency to effect notification to all Certificate Owners, through the
Clearing Agency, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability
of
Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon
surrender to the Securities Administrator of the Book-Entry Certificates by
the
Clearing Agency, accompanied by registration instructions from the Clearing
Agency for registration, the Securities Administrator shall issue the Definitive
Certificates. Neither the Depositor nor the Securities Administrator shall
be
liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively
rely
on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance
of Definitive Certificates all references herein to obligations imposed upon
or
to be performed by the Clearing Agency shall be deemed to be imposed upon and
performed by the Securities Administrator, to the extent applicable, with
respect to such Definitive Certificates and the Securities Administrator shall
recognize the holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders
hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Securities Administrator, upon
the
instruction of the Depositor, shall have the right to issue Definitive
Certificates on the Closing Date in connection with credit enhancement
programs.

Distributions
Generally.
|
(a) Subject
to Section 7.01 respecting the final distribution on the Certificates or Lower
Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests, on each Distribution Date the
Securities Administrator shall make distributions based on the Distribution
Date
Statement for such Distribution Date prepared by it pursuant to Section 4.03(a).
Such distributions shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available
funds
to an account specified in writing to the Securities Administrator at least
five
(5) Business Days prior to the first Distribution Date to such Certificateholder
and at the expense of such Certificateholder.
(b) The
final
distribution in respect of any Certificate shall be made only upon presentation
and surrender of such Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office of the
Securities Administrator; provided,
however,
that
the foregoing provisions shall not apply to any Class of Certificates as long
as
such Certificate remains a Book-Entry Certificate in which case all payments
made shall be made through the Clearing Agency and its Clearing Agency
Participants. Notwithstanding such final payment of principal of any of the
Certificates, each Residual Certificate will remain outstanding until the
termination of each REMIC and the payment in full of all other amounts due
with
respect to the Residual Certificates and at such time such final payment in
retirement of any Residual Certificate will be made only upon presentation
and
surrender of such Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office of the Securities
Administrator. If any payment required to be made on the Certificates or Lower
Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests is to be made on a day that is
not
a Business Day, then such payment will be made on the next succeeding Business
Day.
93
(c) All
distributions or allocations made with respect to Certificateholders within
each
Class on each Distribution Date shall be allocated among the outstanding
Certificates in such Class equally in proportion to their respective initial
Class Principal Amounts (or Percentage Interests).
(d) The
Securities Administrator shall make payments to Certificateholders and to the
Swap Counterparty and any other person pursuant to this Article V and make
deposits to the Supplemental Interest Trust based on the Distribution Date
Statement prepared by it in accordance with Section 4.03(a).

(d) The

Agreement.
(e) Funds
in
the Swap Account shall be invested in Eligible Investments. Any earnings on
such
amounts shall be distributed on each Distribution Date pursuant to Section
5.02(g) or Section 5.02(k), as applicable. The Class X Certificates shall
evidence ownership of the Swap Account for federal income tax purposes and
the
Holder thereof shall direct the Securities Administrator, in writing, as to
investment of amounts on deposit therein. LBH shall be liable for any losses
incurred on such investments. In the absence of written instructions from the
Class X Certificateholders as to investment of funds on deposit in the Swap
Account, such funds shall be invested in the Xxxxx Fargo Advantage Prime Money
Market Fund or comparable investment vehicle. Any amounts on deposit in the
Swap
Account in excess of the Swap Amount on any Distribution Date shall be held

distribution pursuant to Section 5.02(g) or Section 5.02(k), as applicable,
on
the following Distribution Date.

(f) Funds
in
the Interest Rate Cap Account shall be invested in Eligible Investments. Any
earnings on such amounts shall be distributed on each Distribution Date pursuant

shall evidence ownership of the Interest Rate Cap Account for federal income
tax
purposes and the Holder thereof shall direct the Securities Administrator,
in

Account shall be distributed pursuant to the priorities set forth in Section
5.02(h) or Section 5.02(l), as applicable.
(i) It
is the
intention of the parties hereto that, for federal and state income and state
and
local franchise tax purposes, the Supplemental Interest Trust be disregarded
as
an entity separate from the holder of the Class X Certificates unless and until
the date when either (a) there is more than one Class X Certificateholder or
(b)
any Class of Certificates in addition to the Class X Certificates is
recharacterized as an equity interest in the Supplemental Interest Trust for
federal income tax purposes. Neither the Securities Administrator nor the
Trustee shall be responsible for any entity level tax reporting for the
Supplemental Interest Trust.
(j) To
the
extent that the Supplemental Interest Trust is determined to be a separate
legal
entity from the Trustee, any obligation of the Trustee or the Securities
Administrator under the Swap Agreement or the Interest Rate Cap Agreement shall
be deemed to be an obligation of the Supplemental Interest Trust.

this Agreement;
(iv) No
provision of this Agreement shall require the Trustee or the Securities
Administrator to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial

the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be required to perform
services under this Agreement, or to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise

a
property securing a Mortgage Loan is located or for the purpose of otherwise
conforming to any legal requirement, restriction or condition in any state

(ii) all
other

are
to be performed the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform
such
act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations,
including the holding of title to the Trust Fund or any portion thereof in
any
such jurisdiction, shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee,
co-trustee, or custodian;
(iii) no
trustee or custodian hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any
act
or omission of any other trustee or custodian hereunder; and
(iv) the
Trustee or the Certificateholders evidencing more than 50% of the Aggregate

of
or remove any separate trustee, co-trustee or custodian, so appointed by it

or
custodian shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all
of
its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be
exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the
appointment of a new or successor trustee.
(e) No
separate trustee, co-trustee or custodian hereunder shall be required to meet

Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf
of
the Securities Administrator by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating

127
If
an
Event of Default described in clauses (i) through (xii) of this Section shall
occur, then, in each and every case, subject to applicable law, so long as
any
such Event of Default shall not have been remedied within any period of time
prescribed by this Section, the Trustee, by notice in writing to the Master
Servicer (with a copy to the Securities Administrator) may, and shall, if so
directed by Certificateholders evidencing more than 50% of the Class Principal
Amount of each Class of Certificates, terminate all of the rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder and in and to the Mortgage Loans
and the proceeds thereof. If an Event of Default described in clause (xii)
of
this Section shall occur, then, in each and every case, subject to applicable
law,
so long
as such Event of Default shall not have been remedied within the time period
prescribed by clause (xii) of this Section 6.14, the
Trustee, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer (with a copy to the
Securities Administrator), shall promptly terminate all of the rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder and in and to the Mortgage Loans
and the proceeds thereof. On or after the receipt by the Master Servicer of
such
written notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer, and only in
its
capacity as Master Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the
Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee;
provided,
however,
the
parties acknowledge that notwithstanding the preceding sentence there may be
a
transition period, not to exceed 90 days, in order to effect the transfer of
the
Master Servicing obligations to the Trustee. The Trustee is hereby authorized
and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the defaulting Master
Servicer as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other
instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or
appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to
complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and
related documents or otherwise. The defaulting Master Servicer agrees to
cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the defaulting Master
Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder as Master Servicer including,
without limitation, notifying Servicers of the assignment of the master
servicing function and providing the Trustee or its designee all documents
and
records in electronic or other form reasonably requested by it to enable the
Trustee or its designee to assume the defaulting Master Servicer’s functions
hereunder and the transfer to the Trustee for administration by it of all
amounts which shall at the time be or should have been deposited by the
defaulting Master Servicer in the Certificate Account and any other account
or
fund maintained with respect to the Certificates or thereafter received with
respect to the Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer being terminated (or the
Trust Fund, if the Master Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations
hereunder) as a result of an Event of Default shall bear all reasonable costs
and expenses of a master servicing transfer.
The
Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the Master Servicer (or by
the
Trust Fund, if the Master Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations
hereunder) for all costs associated with the transfer of master servicing from
the predecessor Master Servicer, including, without limitation, any costs or
expenses associated with the complete transfer of all master servicing data
and
the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be
required by the Trustee to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the master
servicing data or otherwise to enable the Trustee to master service the Mortgage
Loans properly and effectively. If the terminated Master Servicer does not
pay
such reimbursement within thirty (30) days of its receipt of an invoice
therefore, such reimbursement shall be an expense of the Trust and the Trustee
shall be entitled to withdraw such reimbursement from amounts on deposit in
the
Certificate Account pursuant to Section 4.02; provided
that the
terminated Master Servicer shall reimburse the Trust for any such expense
incurred by the Trust; and provided,
further,
that
the Trustee shall decide whether and to what extent it is in the best interest
of the Certificateholders to pursue any remedy against any party obligated
to
make such reimbursement.
128
Notwithstanding
the termination of its activities as Master Servicer, each terminated Master
Servicer shall continue to be entitled to reimbursement to the extent provided
in Section 4.02 to the extent such reimbursement relates to the period prior
to
such Master Servicer’s termination.
If
any
Event of Default shall occur, the Trustee, upon a Responsible Officer of the
Trustee becoming aware of the occurrence thereof, shall promptly notify the
Securities Administrator, any NIMS Insurer, the Swap Counterparty, the Cap
Counterparty, and each Rating Agency of the nature and extent of such Event
of
Default.
(b) On
and
after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of termination from the
Trustee pursuant to Section 6.14(a) or the Trustee receives the resignation
of
the Master Servicer evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section
9.28,
the Trustee, unless another master servicer shall have been appointed, shall
be
the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity as such
under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein
and
shall have all the rights and powers and be subject to all the responsibilities,
duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter placed on the
Master Servicer hereunder, including the obligation to make Advances;
provided,
however,
that
any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Master
Servicer’s or the Trustee’s failure to provide information required by this
Agreement shall not be considered a default by the Trustee hereunder. In
addition, the Trustee shall have no responsibility for any act or omission
of
the Master Servicer prior to the issuance of any notice of termination. The
Trustee shall have no liability relating to the representations and warranties
of the Master Servicer set forth in Section 9.14. In the Trustee’s capacity as
such successor, the Trustee shall have the same limitations on liability herein
granted to the Master Servicer. As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall
be
entitled to receive all compensation payable to the Master Servicer under this
Agreement, including the Master Servicing Fee.
(c) Notwithstanding
the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to continue to so act,
or
shall, if it is unable to so act, petition a court of competent jurisdiction
to
appoint, or appoint on its own behalf any established housing and home finance
institution servicer, master servicer, servicing or mortgage servicing
institution having a net worth of not less than $15,000,000 and meeting such
other standards for a successor master servicer as are set forth in this
Agreement, as the successor to such Master Servicer in the assumption of all
of
the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder.
Any entity designated by the Trustee as a successor master servicer may be
an
Affiliate of the Trustee; provided,
however,
that,
unless such Affiliate meets the net worth requirements and other standards
set
forth herein for a successor master servicer, the Trustee, in its individual
capacity shall agree, at the time of such designation, to be and remain liable
to the Trust Fund for such Affiliate’s actions and omissions in performing its
duties hereunder. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the
Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out
of
payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided,
however,
that no
such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted to the Master Servicer
hereunder. The Trustee and such successor shall take such actions, consistent
with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession
and
may make other arrangements with respect to the servicing to be conducted
hereunder which are not inconsistent herewith. The Master Servicer shall
cooperate with the Trustee and any successor master servicer in effecting the
termination of the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder
including, without limitation, notifying Mortgagors of the assignment of the
master servicing functions and providing the Trustee and successor master
servicer, as applicable, all documents and records in electronic or other form
reasonably requested by it to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s
functions hereunder and the transfer to the Trustee or such successor master
servicer, as applicable, all amounts which shall at the time be or should have
been deposited by the Master Servicer in the Certificate Account and any other
account or fund maintained with respect to the Certificates or the Lower Tier
REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests or thereafter be received with respect
to the Mortgage Loans. Neither the Trustee nor any other successor master
servicer shall be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason of any failure
to
make, or any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof
caused by (i) the failure of the Master Servicer to deliver, or any delay in
delivering, cash, documents or records to it, (ii) the failure of the Master
Servicer to cooperate as required by this Agreement, (iii) the failure of the
Master Servicer to deliver the Mortgage Loan data to the Securities
Administrator as required by this Agreement or (iv) restrictions imposed by
any
regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Master Servicer. Neither
the
Trustee nor any other successor master servicer shall be deemed to be in default
hereunder by reason of any failure to make, or any delay in making, any
distribution hereunder or any portion thereof caused by the failure of the
Securities Administrator to deliver, or any delay in delivering cash, documents
or records to it.

not have been remedied, the Trustee, in addition to the rights specified in
Section 6.14, shall have the right, in its own name and as trustee of an express
trust, to take all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by
statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect the interests, and
enforce the rights and remedies, of any NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders

other proceedings and the filings of proofs of claim and debt in connection
therewith). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy
provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and
each
and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and

result in a failure of the Securities Administrator to make any required payment
of principal of or interest on the Certificates may only be waived with the
consent of 100% of the affected Certificateholders and with the consent of
any
NIMS Insurer. 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.

The
Trustee shall also, within 45 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default
known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, give written notice thereof

and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee,
or
exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Agreement;
provided,
however,

limitation, (i) the conducting or defending of any administrative action or
litigation hereunder or in relation hereto and (ii) the terminating of the
Master Servicer or any successor master servicer from its rights and duties
as
master servicer hereunder) at the request, order or direction of any of the
Certificateholders or any NIMS Insurer, unless such Certificateholders or any

against the cost, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or
thereby; and, provided further, that, subject to the provisions of Section
8.01,
the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if
the
Trustee, in accordance with an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to any NIMS
Insurer, determines that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully
be taken or if the Trustee in good faith determines that the action or
proceeding so directed would involve it in personal liability for which it
is
not indemnified to its satisfaction or be unjustly prejudicial to the
non-assenting Certificateholders.

(a) The
respective obligations and responsibilities of the Trustee and the Master
Servicer created hereby (other than the obligation of the Trustee to make
payments to Certificateholders and the Swap Counterparty as set forth in Section
7.02, the obligation of the Master Servicer to make a final remittance to the
Securities Administrator pursuant to Section 4.01, and the obligations of the
Master Servicer to the Securities Administrator pursuant to Section 9.10 and
to
the Securities Administrator and the Trustee pursuant to Sections 9.14 and

shall terminate on the earliest of (i) the final payment or other liquidation
of
the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and the disposition of all
REO Property, (ii) the sale of the property held by the Trust Fund in accordance
with Section 7.01(b) and (iii) the Latest Possible Maturity Date (each, a “Trust
Fund Termination Event”); provided,

of
21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Xxxxxx X.
Xxxxxxx, the late Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James’s,
living on the date hereof. Upon the occurrence of a Trust Fund Termination
Event, each REMIC shall be terminated in a manner that shall qualify as a
“qualified liquidation” under the REMIC Provisions.
(b) On
any
Distribution Date occurring on or after the Initial Optional Termination Date,
the Master Servicer or LTURI-holder, as applicable, with the prior written
consent of any NIMS Insurer and the Seller, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, has the option to cause the Trust Fund to adopt a plan
of
complete liquidation pursuant to Section 7.03(a)(i) hereof to sell all of its
property. Upon exercise of such option, the property of the Trust Fund shall
be
sold to the Master Servicer at a price (the “Termination Price”) equal to the
sum of (i) 100% of the unpaid principal balance of each Mortgage Loan on the
day
of such purchase plus interest accrued thereon at the applicable Mortgage Rate
with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Due Date in the Collection Period
immediately preceding the related Distribution Date to the date of such
repurchase, (ii) the fair market value of any REO Property and any other
property held by any REMIC, such fair market value to be determined by an
independent appraiser or appraisers mutually agreed upon by the Master Servicer,
any NIMS Insurer and the Trustee (reduced, in the case of REO Property, by
(1)
reasonably anticipated disposition costs and (2) any amount by which the fair
market value as so reduced exceeds the outstanding principal balance of the
related Mortgage Loan plus interest accrued thereon at the applicable Net
Mortgage Rate to the date of such purchase), (iii) any unreimbursed Servicing
Advances and (iv) any Swap Termination Payment payable to the Swap Counterparty
as a result of a termination pursuant to this Section 7.01; provided,
however, if
there
are any NIM Securities outstanding, the Master Servicer may only exercise its
option after receiving the prior written consent of the holders of such NIM
Securities and, if such consent is given, the Termination Price shall also
include an amount equal to the sum of (1) any accrued interest on the NIM
Securities, (2) the unpaid principal balance of any such NIM Securities and
(3)
any other reimbursable expenses owed by the issuer of the NIM Securities (the
“NIM Redemption Amount”). The Master Servicer, each Servicer, the Trustee, the
Securities Administrator and the Custodian shall be reimbursed from the
Termination Price for any Mortgage Loan or related REO Property for any Advances
made or other amounts advanced with respect to the Mortgage Loans that are
reimbursable to any such entity under this Agreement, the applicable Servicing
Agreement or the Custodial Agreement, together with any accrued and unpaid
compensation and any other amounts due to the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator or the Trustee hereunder or the Servicers or the Custodian. If
the
Master Servicer fails to exercise its right to cause the Trust Fund to adopt
a
plan of complete liquidation as described above, then the NIMS Insurer may
cause
the Trust Fund to adopt a plan of complete liquidation as described above,
and
(i) the Master Servicer shall cause the Trust Fund to adopt a plan of complete
liquidation as described above, (ii) the NIMS Insurer shall remit the
Termination Price in immediately available funds to the Master Servicer at
least
three Business Days prior to the applicable Distribution Date and, upon receipt
of such funds from the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer shall promptly deposit
such funds in the Certificate Account and (iii) upon termination of the Trust
Fund, the Trustee will transfer the property of the Trust Fund to the NIMS
Insurer. The NIMS Insurer shall be obligated to reimburse the Master Servicer
for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with its
termination of the Trust Fund and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Master
Servicer for any losses, liabilities or expenses resulting from any claims
directly resulting from or relating to the NIMS Insurer’s termination of the
Trust Fund, except to the extent such losses, liabilities or expenses arise
out
of or result from the Master Servicer’s negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct.
140
(c) On
any
Distribution Date occurring on or after the Initial Optional Termination Date
and provided there are no NIM Securities outstanding, the Master Servicer,
with
the prior written consent of the Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, has the option to purchase all of the Lower Tier REMIC 1
Uncertificated Regular Interests. Upon exercise of such option, the Lower Tier
REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests shall be sold to the Master Servicer
at
a price (the “Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests Purchase
Price”) equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the unpaid principal balance of each
Mortgage Loan on the day of such purchase plus interest accrued thereon at
the
applicable Mortgage Rate with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Due Date
in
the Collection Period immediately preceding the related Distribution Date to
the
date of such repurchase and (ii) the fair market value of any REO Property
and
any other property held by any REMIC, such fair market value to be determined
by
an independent appraiser or appraisers mutually agreed upon by the Master
Servicer, any NIMS Insurer and the Trustee (reduced, in the case of REO
Property, by (1) reasonably anticipated disposition costs and (2) any amount
by
which the fair market value as so reduced exceeds the outstanding principal
balance of the related Mortgage Loan plus interest accrued thereon at the
applicable Net Mortgage Rate to the date of such purchase). If the Master
Servicer elects to exercise such option, each REMIC created pursuant to this
Agreement (other than REMIC 1) shall be terminated in such a manner so that
the
termination of each such REMIC shall qualify as a “qualified liquidation” under
the REMIC Provisions and the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests
and the Class LT-R Certificates will evidence the entire beneficial interest
in
the property of the Trust Fund. Following a purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC
1
Uncertificated Regular Interests pursuant to this subsection, the Trust Fund
(and REMIC 1) will remain outstanding and final payment on the Certificates
(other than the Class LT-R Certificates) will be made in accordance with
Sections 7.03(a)(iii) and 5.02. The Trust Fund will terminate upon the
occurrence of a Trust Fund Termination Event, in accordance with Section
7.01(a).

any Trust Fund Termination Event and notice of the purchase of the Lower Tier
REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests, specifying the Distribution Date
upon
which the final distribution to the Certificates (other than the Class LT-R
Certificates, in the case of a purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated
Regular Interests) shall be made, shall be given by the Securities Administrator
by first class mail to Certificateholders mailed promptly (and in no event
later
than five Business Days) (x) after the Securities Administrator has received
notice from the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer or the LTURI-holder, as
applicable, of its election to cause (1) the sale of all of the property of
the
Trust Fund pursuant to Section 7.01(b) or (2) the purchase of the Lower Tier
REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests pursuant to Section 7.01(c), or (y)
upon the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan or REO
Property in the Trust Fund. In the case of a Trust Fund Termination Event,
the
Securities Administrator shall also give notice to the Master Servicer, the
Swap
Counterparty, the Cap Counterparty and the Certificate Registrar at the time
notice is given to Holders.
In
the
case of a Trust Fund Termination Event, such notice shall specify (A) the
Distribution
Date
upon which final distribution on the Certificates or Lower Tier REMIC 1
Uncertificated Regular Interests of all amounts required to be distributed
to
Certificateholders pursuant to Section 5.02 will be made upon presentation
and
surrender of the Certificates at the Corporate Trust Office, and (B) that the
Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable,
distribution being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates
at the office or agency of the Securities Administrator therein specified.
Upon
any such Trust Fund Termination Event, the duties of the Certificate Registrar
with respect to the Certificates or Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular
Interests shall terminate and the Securities Administrator shall terminate
the
Certificate Account and any other account or fund maintained with respect to
the
Certificates or Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests, subject
to
the Securities Administrator’s obligation hereunder to hold all amounts payable
to Certificateholders in trust without interest pending such payment.
In
the
case of a purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests,
such notice shall specify (A) the Distribution Date upon which final
distribution on the Certificates (other than the Class LT-R Certificates) of
all
amounts required to be distributed to Certificateholders pursuant to Section
5.02 (other than any distributions to the Class LT-R Certificates in respect
of
REMIC 1) will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates (other
than the Class LT-R Certificates) at the Corporate Trust Office, and (B) that
the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not
applicable, distribution being made only upon presentation and surrender of
the
Certificates (other than the Class LT-R Certificates) at the office or agency
of
the Securities Administrator therein specified. Upon any such purchase of the
Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests, the duties of the
Certificate Registrar with respect to the Certificates other than the Class
LT-R
Certificate shall terminate but the Securities Administrator shall not terminate
the Certificate Account and any other account or fund maintained with respect
to
the Certificates, subject to the Securities Administrator’s obligation hereunder
to hold all amounts payable to Certificateholders in trust without interest
pending such payment. For all Distribution Dates following the Distribution
Date
on which the Master Servicer purchases the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated
Regular Interests, all amounts that would be distributed on the Certificates
(other than the Class LT-R Certificate and exclusive of amounts payable from
any
fund held outside of REMIC 1) absent such purchase shall be payable to the
LTURI-holder.
142
(b) In
the
event that all of the Holders do not surrender their Certificates for
cancellation within three months after the time specified in the above-mentioned
written notice, the Securities Administrator shall give a second written notice
to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for
cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within
one year after the second notice any Certificates shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation, the Securities Administrator may take appropriate
steps to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of such
Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the amounts
distributable to such Holders. If within two years after the second notice
any
Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Securities
Administrator shall, subject to applicable state law relating to escheatment,
hold all amounts distributable to such Holders for the benefit of such Holders.
No interest shall accrue on any amount held by the Securities Administrator
and
not distributed to a Certificateholder due to such Certificateholder’s failure
to surrender its Certificate(s) for payment of the final distribution thereon
in
accordance with this Section.
(c) Any
reasonable expenses incurred by the Securities Administrator in connection
with
any Trust Fund Termination Event or any purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC 1
Uncertificated Regular Interests shall be reimbursed from proceeds received
from
such termination or purchase.

REMIC Event:
(i) Within

(other than the Class LT-R Certificates, in the case of a purchase of the Lower
Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests, upon notification by the Master
Servicer, the Securities Administrator, any NIMS Insurer or an Affiliate of
the
Seller that it intends to exercise its option to cause the termination of the
Trust Fund or purchase the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests,
the Securities Administrator shall adopt a plan of complete liquidation on
behalf of each REMIC (other than REMIC 1, in the case of a purchase of the
Lower
Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests), meeting the requirements of
a
qualified liquidation under the REMIC Provisions;
143
(ii) Any
sale
of the assets of the Trust Fund or the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular
Interests pursuant to Section 7.02 shall be a sale for cash and shall occur
at
or after the time of adoption of such a plan of complete liquidation and prior
to the time of making of the final payment on the Certificates (other than
the
Class LT-R Certificates, in the case of a purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC
1
Uncertificated Regular Interests);
(iii) On
the
date specified for final payment of the Certificates (other than the Class
LT-R
Certificates, in the case of a purchase of the Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated
Regular Interests), the Securities Administrator shall make final distributions
of principal and interest on such Certificates and shall pay, in the case of
a
Trust Fund Termination Event, any Swap Termination Payment owed to the Swap
Counterparty on the related Swap Payment Date (to the extent not paid on
previous Swap Payment Dates) in accordance with Section 5.02. In the case of
a
Trust Fund Termination Event, and, after payment of, or provision for any
outstanding expenses, the Securities Administrator shall distribute or credit,
or cause to be distributed or credited, to the Holders of the Residual
Certificates all cash on hand after such final payment (other than cash retained
to meet claims), and the Trust Fund (and each REMIC) shall terminate at that
time; and
(iv) In
no
event may the final payment on the Certificates or the final distribution or
credit to the Holders of the Residual Certificates in respect of the residual
interest in any liquidated REMIC be made after the 89th day from the date on
which the plan of complete liquidation for such REMIC is adopted.
(b) By
its
acceptance of a Residual Certificate, each Holder thereof hereby agrees to
accept the plan of complete liquidation prepared by the Depositor and adopted
by
the Securities Administrator under this Section and to take such other action
in
connection therewith as may be reasonably requested by the Master Servicer
or
any Servicer.
(c) In
connection with the termination of the Trust Fund, or a Section 7.01(c) Purchase
Event, the Securities Administrator may request an Opinion of Counsel addressed
to the Securities Administrator (at the expense of the Depositor) to the effect
that all the requirements of a qualified liquidation under the REMIC Provisions
have been met.

price equal to the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan, plus
accrued interest thereon to the date of repurchase plus any unreimbursed
Advances, Servicing Advances or Servicing Fees allocable to such Distressed
Mortgage Loan. Any such repurchase shall be accomplished by the NIMS Insurer’s
remittance of the purchase price for the Distressed Mortgage Loan to the Master
Servicer for deposit into the Certificate Account. The NIMS Insurer shall not
use any procedure in selecting Distressed Mortgage Loans to be repurchased
which
would be materially adverse to Certificateholders.

to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof.
(b) No
Certificateholder, solely by virtue of its status as Certificateholder, shall
have any right by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Agreement
to
institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under

with respect to this Agreement, unless such Holder previously shall have given
to the Trustee a written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance
thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the Holders of Certificates
evidencing not less than 25% of the Class Principal Amount (or Percentage
Interest) of Certificates of each Class affected thereby shall, with the prior
written consent of any NIMS Insurer, have made written request upon the Trustee
to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee
hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as
it
may require against the cost, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein
or
thereby, and the Trustee, for sixty days after its receipt of such notice,
request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute
any
such action, suit or proceeding and no direction inconsistent with such written
request has been given the Trustee during such sixty-day period by such
Certificateholders or any NIMS Insurer; it being understood and intended, and

Certificateholder, any NIMS Insurer, the Securities Administrator and the
Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates shall have any right in
any
manner whatever by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Agreement
to
affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the Holders of any other of such
Certificates or the rights of any NIMS Insurer, or to obtain or seek to obtain
priority over or preference to any other such Holder or any NIMS Insurer, or
to
enforce any right under this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided
and
for the benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement
of
the provisions of this Section, each and every Certificateholder, the NIMS
Insurer and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either
at law or in equity.

Access
to List of Holders.

(a) If
the
Trustee is not acting as Certificate Registrar, the Certificate Registrar will
furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer, within
fifteen days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a request by the
Trustee or any NIMS Insurer in writing, a list, in such form as the Trustee
may
reasonably require, of the names and addresses of the Certificateholders of
each
Class as of the most recent Record Date.
(b) If
any
NIMS Insurer or three or more Holders or Certificate Owners (hereinafter
referred to as “Applicants”) apply in writing to the Trustee, and such
application states that the Applicants desire to communicate with other Holders
with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates
and
is accompanied by a copy of the communication which such Applicants propose
to
transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five Business Days after the receipt
of
such application, afford such Applicants reasonable access during the normal
business hours of the Trustee to the most recent list of Certificateholders
held
by the Trustee or shall, as an alternative, send, at the Applicants’ expense,
the written communication proffered by the Applicants to all Certificateholders
at their addresses as they appear in the Certificate Register.

Administrator, any NIMS Insurer, the Certificate Registrar nor the Trustee
shall

to
the names and addresses of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of

Acts
of Holders of Certificates.
|
(a) Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action provided by this Agreement to be given or taken by Holders or Certificate
Owner, if the Holder is a Clearing Agency, may be embodied in and evidenced
by
one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders
in
person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise
expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument
or
instruments are delivered to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator and,
where expressly required herein, to the Master Servicer. Such instrument or
instruments (as the action embodies therein and evidenced thereby) are herein
sometimes referred to as an “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or
instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing
appointing any such agents shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Agreement
and conclusive in favor of the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the
Master Servicer, if made in the manner provided in this Section. Each of the
Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Master Servicer shall promptly
notify the others of receipt of any such instrument by it, and shall promptly
forward a copy of such instrument to the others.
(b) The
fact
and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may
be
proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by the certificate
of
any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments
or
deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing
acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Whenever such execution is by an
officer of a corporation or a member of a partnership on behalf of such
corporation or partnership, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute
sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any
such instrument or writing, or the authority of the individual executing the
same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems
sufficient.

(c) The
ownership of Certificates or Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interests
(whether or not such Certificates or Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular
Interests shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or
other writing thereon made by anyone other than the Trustee) shall be proved
by
the Certificate Register, and none of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the
Securities Administrator, the NIMS Insurer, or the Depositor shall be affected
by any notice to the contrary.
(d) Any
request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
action by the Holder of any Certificate or Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated
Regular Interest shall bind every future Holder of the same Certificate or
Lower
Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interest and the Holder of every Certificate
or Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular Interest issued upon the
registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof,
in
respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or
the
Master Servicer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action
is
made upon such Certificate or Lower Tier REMIC 1 Uncertificated Regular
Interest.

coverage customarily maintained by master servicers of mortgage loans similar
to
the Mortgage Loans and the Master Servicer shall provide the Trustee and any

promptly report to the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer all cases of embezzlement
or

or
surety, shall be disclosed in such reports together with the amount of such
losses covered by insurance. If a bond or insurance claim report is filed with
any of such bonding companies or insurers, the Master Servicer shall promptly
furnish a copy of such report to the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer. Any amounts
relating to the Mortgage Loans collected by the Master Servicer under any such
bond or policy shall be promptly deposited into the Certificate Account. Any

Power
to Act; Procedures.

(a) The
Master Servicer shall master service the Mortgage Loans and shall have full
power and authority, subject to the REMIC Provisions and the provisions of
Article X hereof, and each Servicer shall have full power and authority (to
the
extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement) to do any and all things
that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the servicing and
administration of the Mortgage Loans, including but not limited to the power
and
authority (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and
the Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents,
(ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the
Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages, (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds
and Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion
of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan, in each
case, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the applicable
Servicing Agreement, as applicable; provided that the Master Servicer shall
not
take, or knowingly permit any Servicer to take, any action that is inconsistent
with or prejudices the interests of the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders
in
any Mortgage Loan or the rights and interests of the Depositor, the Trustee,
the
Certificateholders under this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall represent
and
protect the interests of the Trust Fund in the same manner as it protects its
own interests in mortgage loans in its own portfolio in any claim, proceeding
or
litigation regarding a Mortgage Loan and shall not make or knowingly permit
any
Servicer to make any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any
Mortgage Loan that would cause an Adverse REMIC Event. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer in its own name or in the
name
of a Servicer, and each Servicer, to the extent such authority is delegated
to
such Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement, is hereby authorized
and
empowered by the Trustee when the Master Servicer or such Servicer, as the
case
may be, believes it appropriate in its best judgment and in accordance with
Accepted Servicing Practices and the applicable Servicing Agreement, to execute
and deliver, on behalf of itself and the Certificateholders, the Trustee or
any
of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial
or full release or discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect
to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties. The Trustee
shall furnish to the Master Servicer, upon request, with any powers of attorney
empowering the Master Servicer or any Servicer to execute and deliver
instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release
or
discharge, and to foreclose upon or otherwise liquidate Mortgaged Property,
and
to appeal, prosecute or defend in any court action relating to the Mortgage
Loans or the Mortgaged Property, in accordance with the applicable Servicing
Agreement and this Agreement, and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such
other documents, as the Master Servicer may request, necessary or appropriate
to
enable the Master Servicer to master service the Mortgage Loans and carry out
its duties hereunder and to allow each Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans,
in each case in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices (and the Trustee
shall have no liability for misuse of any such powers of attorney by the Master
Servicer or any Servicer). If the Master Servicer or the Trustee has been
advised that it is likely that the laws of the state in which action is to
be
taken prohibit such action if taken in the name of the Trustee or that the
Trustee would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of
such state if such action is taken in its name, then upon request of the Trustee
the Master Servicer shall join with the Trustee in the appointment of a
co-trustee pursuant to Section 6.09 hereof. In no event shall the Master
Servicer, without the Trustee’s written consent: (i) initiate any action, suit
or proceeding solely under the Trustee’s name without indicating the Master
Servicer in its applicable, representative capacity, so long as the
jurisdictional and procedural rules will allow for this insertion to occur,
(ii)
initiate any action, suit or proceeding not directly relating to the servicing
of a Mortgage Loan (including but not limited to actions, suits or proceedings
against Certificateholders, or against the Depositor or the Transferor for
breaches of representations and warranties) solely under the Trustee’s name,
(iii) engage counsel to represent the Trustee in any action, suit or proceeding
not directly relating to the servicing of a Mortgage Loan (including but not
limited to actions, suits or proceedings against Certificateholders, or against
the Depositor or the Transferor for breaches of representations and warranties),
or (iv) prepare, execute or deliver any government filings, forms, permits,
registrations or other documents or take any action with the intent to cause,
and that actually causes, the Trustee to be registered to do business in any
state. The Master Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee for any and all costs,
liabilities and expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with the
negligent or willful misuse of such powers of attorney by the Master Servicer.
In the performance of its duties hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be an
independent contractor and shall not, except in those instances where it is
taking action in the name of the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Fund, be deemed
to be the agent of the Trustee.
149
(b) In
master
servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer shall employ
procedures and exercise the same care that it customarily employs and exercises
in master servicing and administering loans for its own account, giving due
consideration to Accepted Servicing Practices where such practices do not
conflict with this Agreement. Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer
may, and may permit any Servicer to, in its discretion (i) waive any late
payment charge (but not any Prepayment Premium, except as set forth below)
and
(ii) extend the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period
not
greater than 120 days; provided,
however,
that the
maturity of any Mortgage Loan shall not be extended past the date on which
the
final payment is due on the latest maturing Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-off
Date. In the event of any extension described in clause (ii) above, the Master
Servicer shall make or cause such Servicer (if required by the applicable
Servicing Agreement) to make Advances on the related Mortgage Loan in accordance
with the provisions of Section 5.04 on the basis of the amortization schedule
of
such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such extension.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Master Servicer
shall not make or knowingly permit any modification, waiver or amendment of
any
material term of any Mortgage Loan, unless: (1) such Mortgage Loan is in default
or default by the related Mortgagor is, in the reasonable judgment of the Master
Servicer or the related Servicer, reasonably foreseeable, (2) in the case of
a
waiver of a Prepayment Premium, (a) such Mortgage Loan is in default or default
by the related Mortgagor is, in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer
or the related Servicer, reasonably foreseeable and such waiver would maximize
recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment
Premium and the related Mortgage Loan or (b) if the prepayment is not the result
of a refinance by the Servicer or any of its affiliates and (i) such Mortgage
Loan is in default or default by the related Mortgagor is, in the reasonable
judgment of the Master Servicer or the related Servicer, reasonably foreseeable
and such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account
the value of such Prepayment Premium and the related Mortgage Loan or (ii)
the
collection of the Prepayment Premium would be in violation of applicable law
or
(iii) the collection of such Prepayment Premium would be considered “predatory”
pursuant to written guidance published or issued by any applicable federal,
state or local regulatory authority acting in its official capacity and having
jurisdiction over such matters and (3) the Master Servicer shall have provided
or caused to be provided to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel addressed to
the
Trustee (which opinion shall, if provided by the Master Servicer, be an expense
reimbursed from the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 4.02(v)) to the
effect that such modification, waiver or amendment would not result in an
Adverse REMIC Event; provided, in no event shall an Opinion of Counsel be
required for the waiver of a Prepayment Premium under clause (2)
above.

Enforcement
of Servicer’s and Master Servicer’s
Obligations.
|
(a) Each
Servicing Agreement requires the applicable Servicer, respectively, to service
the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions thereof. References in
this
Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer include actions
taken or to be taken by a Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer. Any fees
and other amounts payable to a Servicer shall be deducted from amounts remitted
to the Master Servicer by such Servicer (to the extent permitted by the
applicable Servicing Agreement) and shall not be an obligation of the Trust
Fund, the Trustee or the Master Servicer.
(b) The
Master Servicer shall not be required to (i) take any action with respect to
the
servicing of any Mortgage Loan that the related Servicer is not required to
take
under the related Servicing Agreement and (ii) cause a Servicer to take any
action or refrain from taking any action if the related Servicing Agreement
does
not require such Servicer to take such action or refrain from taking such
action; in both cases notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement that
requires the Master Servicer to take such action or cause such Servicer to
take
such action.
(c) The
Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee, any NIMS Insurer and the
Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Servicer under the
related Servicing Agreement, and shall, in the event that a Servicer fails
to
perform its obligations in accordance therewith, terminate the rights and
obligations of such Servicer thereunder and either act as servicer of the
related Mortgage Loans or cause the other parties hereto to enter into a
Servicing Agreement (and such parties hereby agree to execute and deliver any
such successor Servicing Agreement), with a successor Servicer. Such
enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims,
termination of Servicing Agreements and the pursuit of other appropriate
remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such
time as the Master Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require
were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall
pay
the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, and shall be reimbursed
therefor initially (i) from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement
only to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in
respect of the related Mortgage Loans, (ii) from a specific recovery of costs,
expenses or attorneys’ fees against the party against whom such enforcement is
directed, and then, (iii) to the extent that such amounts are insufficient
to
reimburse the Master Servicer for the costs of such enforcement, from the
Certificate Account.
(d) The
Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any certifications,
reports or other information provided by the Servicers under the terms of the
applicable Servicing Agreement, in its preparation of any certifications,
filings or reports, in accordance with the terms hereof or as may be required
by
applicable law or regulation.

Collection
of Taxes, Assessments and Similar
Items.
|
(a) To
the
extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer
shall
cause each Servicer to establish and maintain one or more custodial accounts
at
a depository institution (which may be a depository institution with which
the
Master Servicer or any Servicer establishes accounts in the ordinary course
of
its servicing activities), the accounts of which are insured to the maximum
extent permitted by the FDIC (each, an “Escrow Account”) and to deposit therein
any collections of amounts received with respect to amounts due for taxes,
assessments, water rates, standard hazard insurance policy premiums, Payaheads,
if applicable, or any comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors.
Withdrawals from any Escrow Account may be made (to the extent amounts have
been
escrowed for such purpose) only in accordance with the applicable Servicing
Agreement. Each Servicer shall be entitled to all investment income not required
to be paid to Mortgagors on any Escrow Account maintained by such Servicer.
The
Master Servicer shall make (or cause to be made) to the extent provided in
the
applicable Servicing Agreement advances to the extent necessary in order to
effect timely payment of taxes, water rates, assessments, standard hazard
insurance policy premiums or comparable items in connection with the related
Mortgage Loan (to the extent that the Mortgagor is required, but fails, to
pay
such items), provided that it or the applicable Servicer has determined that
the
funds so advanced are recoverable from escrow payments, reimbursement pursuant
to Section 4.02 or otherwise.
151
(b) Costs
incurred by the Master Servicer or by any Servicer in effecting the timely
payment of taxes and assessments on the properties subject to the Mortgage
Loans
may be added to the amount owing under the related Mortgage Note where the
terms
of the Mortgage Note so permit; provided,
however,
that the
addition of any such cost shall not be taken into account for purposes of
calculating the distributions to be made to Certificateholders. Such costs,
to
the extent that they are unanticipated, extraordinary costs, and not ordinary
or
routine costs shall be recoverable as a Servicing Advance by the Master Servicer
pursuant to Section 4.02.
|
Section
9.07.
|
Termination
of Servicing Agreements; Successor
Servicers.
|
(a) The
Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights and obligations of
any
Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms
and conditions of such Servicing Agreement and without any limitation by virtue
of this Agreement; provided,
however,
that in
the event of termination of any Servicing Agreement by the Master Servicer,
the
Master Servicer shall provide for the servicing of the Mortgage Loans by a
successor Servicer to be appointed as provided in the applicable Servicing
Agreement.
The
parties acknowledge that notwithstanding the preceding sentence, there may
be a
transition period, not to exceed 90 days, in order to effect the transfer of
servicing to a successor Servicer. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to
be
reimbursed from each Servicer (or by the Trust Fund, if the Servicer is unable
to fulfill its obligations hereunder) for all costs associated with the transfer
of servicing from the predecessor servicer, including without limitation, any
costs or expenses associated with the complete transfer of all servicing data
and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data, as may
be
required by the Master Servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in
the
servicing data or otherwise to enable the Master Servicer to service the
Mortgage Loans properly and effectively.
(b) If
the
Master Servicer acts as a successor Servicer, it will not assume liability
for
the representations and warranties of a Servicer, if any, that it replaces.
The
Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to have the successor Servicer
assume liability for the representations and warranties made by the terminated
Servicer in the related Servicing Agreement, and in the event of any such
assumption by the successor Servicer, the Trustee or the Master Servicer, as
applicable, may, in the exercise of its business judgment, release the
terminated Servicer from liability for such representations and
warranties.
152
(c) If
the
Master Servicer acts as a successor Servicer, it will have the same obligations
to make Advances as the Servicer under the related Servicing Agreement and
to
reimburse the successor Servicer for unreimbursed Advances if required by the
Servicing Agreement but will have no obligation to make an Advance if it
determines in its reasonable judgment that such Advance is non-recoverable.
To
the extent that the Master Servicer is unable to find a successor Servicer
that
is willing to service the Mortgage Loans for the Servicing Fee because of the
obligation of the Servicer to make Advances regardless of whether such Advance
is recoverable, the applicable Servicing Agreement may be amended to provide
that the successor Servicer shall have no obligation to make an Advance if
it
determines in its reasonable judgment that such Advance is non-recoverable
and
provides an Officer’s Certificate to such effect to the Master Servicer, the
Trustee and the NIMS Insurer.
|
Section
9.08.
|
Master
Servicer Liable for
Enforcement.
|
Notwithstanding
any Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and liable
to the Trustee, any NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement, to the extent of its obligations hereunder,
without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Servicing
Agreements. The Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
ensure that the Mortgage Loans are serviced in accordance with the provisions
of
this Agreement and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the
provisions of each Servicing Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders
and any NIMS Insurer. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any
agreement with any Servicer for indemnification of the Master Servicer and
nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such
indemnification. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Master Servicer
shall
have no liability for the acts or omissions of any Servicer in the performance
by such Servicer of its obligations under the related Servicing
Agreement.
|
Section
9.09.
|
No
Contractual Relationship Between Any Servicer and Trustee or
Depositor.
|
Any
Servicing Agreement that may be entered into and any other transactions or
services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving any Servicer in its capacity
as such and not as an originator shall be deemed to be between such Servicer,
the Seller and the Master Servicer, and the Trustee, any NIMS Insurer and the
Depositor shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no obligations,
duties or liabilities with respect to such Servicer except as set forth in
Section 9.10 hereof, but shall have rights thereunder as third party
beneficiaries. It is furthermore understood and agreed by the parties hereto
that the obligations of any Servicer are set forth in their entirety in such
Servicer’s related Servicing Agreement and such Servicer has no obligations
under and is not otherwise bound by the terms of this Agreement.
153
|
Section
9.10.
|
Assumption
of Servicing Agreement by Securities
Administrator.
|
(a) In
the
event the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Master Servicer
(including by reason of any Event of Default under this Agreement), the Trustee
shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of such Master Servicer
hereunder and under each Servicing Agreement entered into with respect to the
Mortgage Loans. The Trustee, its designee or any successor master servicer
appointed by the Trustee shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Master
Servicer’s interest herein and therein to the same extent as if such Servicing
Agreement had been assigned to the assuming party, except that the Master
Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations of the
Master Servicer under such Servicing Agreement accruing prior to its replacement
as Master Servicer, and shall be liable to the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer,
and
hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer
from and against all costs, damages, expenses and liabilities (including
reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Trustee or any NIMS Insurer as a
result of such liability or obligations of the Master Servicer and in connection
with the Trustee’s assumption (but not its performance, except to the extent
that costs or liability of the Trustee are created or increased as a result
of
negligent or wrongful acts or omissions of the Master Servicer prior to its
replacement as Master Servicer) of the Master Servicer’s obligations, duties or
responsibilities thereunder.
(b) The
Master Servicer that has been terminated shall, upon request of the Trustee
but
at the expense of such Master Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all
documents and records relating to each Servicing Agreement and the related
Mortgage Loans and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it and
otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer
of
each Servicing Agreement to the assuming party.
|
Section
9.11.
|
Due-on-Sale
Clauses; Assumption Agreements.
|
To
the
extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, to the extent Mortgage
Loans contain enforceable due-on-sale clauses, the Master Servicer shall cause
the related Servicer to enforce such clauses in accordance with the applicable
Servicing Agreement. If applicable law prohibits the enforcement of a
due-on-sale clause or such clause is otherwise not enforced in accordance with
the applicable Servicing Agreement, and, as a consequence, a Mortgage Loan
is
assumed, the original Mortgagor may be released from liability in accordance
with the applicable Servicing Agreement.
|
Section
9.12.
|
Release
of Mortgage Files.
|
(a) Upon
(i)
becoming aware of the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan or (ii) the receipt
by the Master Servicer of a notification that payment in full has been or will
be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer will,
or will cause the related Servicer to, promptly notify the Trustee (or the
Custodian) and the Securities Administrator by a certification (which
certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received
in connection with such payment that are required to be deposited in the
Certificate Account have been or will be so deposited) of a Servicing Officer
and shall request (on the form attached hereto as Exhibit C or on the form
attached to the related Custodial Agreement) the Trustee or the Custodian,
to
deliver to the applicable Servicer the related Mortgage File. Upon receipt
of
such certification and request, the Trustee or the Custodian (with the consent,
and at the direction of the Trustee), shall promptly release the related
Mortgage File to the applicable Servicer and the Trustee shall have no further
responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File. Upon any such payment in
full,
the Master Servicer is authorized, and each Servicer, to the extent such
authority is provided for under the applicable Servicing Agreement, is
authorized, to give, as agent for the Trustee, as the mortgagee under the
Mortgage that secured the Mortgage Loan, an instrument of satisfaction (or
assignment of mortgage without recourse) regarding the Mortgaged Property
subject to the Mortgage, which instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as
the
case may be, shall be delivered to the Person or Persons entitled thereto
against receipt therefor of such payment, it being understood and agreed that
no
expenses incurred in connection with such instrument of satisfaction or
assignment, as the case may be, shall be chargeable to the Certificate
Account.
154
(b) From
time
to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage
Loan
and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and the applicable Servicing
Agreement, the Trustee shall execute such documents as shall be prepared and
furnished to the Trustee by the Master Servicer, or by a Servicer (in form
reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) and as are necessary to the prosecution
of
any such proceedings. The Trustee or the Custodian, shall, upon request of
the
Master Servicer, or of a Servicer, and delivery to the Trustee or the Custodian,
of a request for release of documents and a receipt signed by a Servicing
Officer substantially in the form of Exhibit C, release the related Mortgage
File held in its possession or control to the Master Servicer (or the applicable
Servicer). Such receipt shall obligate the Master Servicer or Servicer to return
the Mortgage File to the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, when the
need
therefor by the Master Servicer or Servicer no longer exists unless the Mortgage
Loan shall be liquidated, in which case, upon receipt of a certificate of a
Servicing Officer similar to that hereinabove specified, the receipt shall
be
released by the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, to the Master Servicer
(or the applicable Servicer).

Section
9.13.
|
Documents,
Records and Funds in Possession of Master Servicer to be Held for
Trustee.
|
(a) The
Master Servicer shall transmit, or cause the applicable Servicer to transmit,
to
the Trustee such documents and instruments coming into the possession of the
Master Servicer or such Servicer from time to time as are required by the terms
hereof or of the applicable Servicing Agreement to be delivered to the Trustee
or the Custodian. Any funds received by the Master Servicer or by a Servicer
in
respect of any Mortgage Loan or which otherwise are collected by the Master
Servicer or a Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in respect
of any Mortgage Loan shall be held for the benefit of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders subject to the Master Servicer’s right to retain or withdraw
from the Certificate Account the Master Servicing Fee and other amounts provided
in this Agreement and to the right of each Servicer to retain its Servicing
Fee
and other amounts as provided in the related Servicing Agreement. The Master
Servicer shall, and shall (to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing
Agreement) cause each Servicer to, provide access to information and
documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee, any NIMS Insurer,
their respective agents and accountants at any time upon reasonable request
and
during normal business hours, and to Certificateholders that are savings and
loan associations, banks or insurance companies, the Office of Thrift
Supervision, the FDIC and the supervisory agents and examiners of such Office
and Corporation or examiners of any other federal or state banking or insurance
regulatory authority if so required by applicable regulations of the Office
of
Thrift Supervision or other regulatory authority, such access to be afforded
without charge but only upon reasonable request in writing and during normal
business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer designated by it. In
fulfilling such a request the Master Servicer shall not be responsible for
determining the sufficiency of such information.
155
(b) All
Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the
Master Servicer, or any Servicer, in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether
from
the collection of principal and interest payments or from Liquidation Proceeds
or Insurance Proceeds, shall be held by the Master Servicer, or by any Servicer,
for and on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders and shall be and
remain the sole and exclusive property of the Trustee; provided,
however,
that the
Master Servicer and each Servicer shall be entitled to setoff against, and
deduct from, any such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to
the
Master Servicer or such Servicer under this Agreement or the applicable
Servicing Agreement and shall be authorized to remit such funds to the
Securities Administrator in accordance with this Agreement.
(c) The
Master Servicer hereby acknowledges that concurrently with the execution of
this
Agreement, the Trustee shall own or, to the extent that a court of competent
jurisdiction shall deem the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller
to
the Depositor not to constitute a sale, the Trustee shall have a security
interest in the Mortgage Loans and in all Mortgage Files representing such
Mortgage Loans and in all funds and investment property now or hereafter held
by, or under the control of, a Servicer or the Master Servicer that are
collected by any Servicer or the Master Servicer in connection with the Mortgage
Loans, whether as scheduled installments of principal and interest or as full
or
partial prepayments of principal or interest or as Liquidation Proceeds or
Insurance Proceeds or otherwise, and in all proceeds of the foregoing and
proceeds of proceeds (but excluding any fee or other amounts to which a Servicer
is entitled under the applicable Servicing Agreement, or the Master Servicer
or
the Depositor is entitled to hereunder); and the Master Servicer agrees that
so
long as the Mortgage Loans are assigned to and held by the Trustee or the
Custodian, all documents or instruments constituting part of the Mortgage Files,
and such funds relating to the Mortgage Loans which come into the possession
or
custody of, or which are subject to the control of, the Master Servicer or
any
Servicer shall be held by the Master Servicer or such Servicer for and on behalf
of the Trustee as the Trustee’s agent and bailee for purposes of perfecting the
Trustee’s security interest therein as provided by the applicable Uniform
Commercial Code or other applicable laws.
(d) The
Master Servicer agrees that it shall not, and shall not authorize any Servicer
to, create, incur or subject any Mortgage Loans, or any funds that are deposited
in any Custodial Account, Escrow Account or the Certificate Account, or any
funds that otherwise are or may become due or payable to the Trustee, to any
claim, lien, security interest, judgment, levy, writ of attachment or other
encumbrance, nor assert by legal action or otherwise any claim or right of
setoff against any Mortgage Loan or any funds collected on, or in connection
with, a Mortgage Loan.

thereunder. The Master Servicer shall not, and shall not knowingly permit any
Servicer to, cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary Mortgage Insurance

REMIC
ADMINISTRATION

Section
10.01.
|
REMIC
Administration.
|
(a) REMIC
elections as set forth in the Preliminary Statement shall be made on Forms
1066
or other appropriate federal tax or information return for the taxable year
ending on the last day of the calendar year in which the Certificates are
issued. The regular interests and residual interest in each REMIC shall be
as
designated in the Preliminary Statement. For purposes of such designations,
the
interest rate of any regular interest that is computed by taking into account
the weighted average of the Net Mortgage Rates of the Mortgage Loans shall
be
reduced by the amount of any expense paid by the Trust to the extent that (i)
such expense was not taken into account in computing the Net Mortgage Rate
of
any Mortgage Loan, (ii) such expense does not constitute an “unanticipated
expense” of a REMIC within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section
1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii) and (iii) the amount of such expense was not taken into
account in computing the interest rate of a more junior Class of regular
interests.
(b) The
Closing Date is hereby designated as the “Startup Day” of each REMIC within the
meaning of section 860G(a)(9) of the Code. The latest possible maturity date
for
purposes of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-1(a)(4) will be the Latest Possible
Maturity Date.
(c) The
Securities Administrator shall represent the Trust Fund in any administrative
or
judicial proceeding relating to an examination or audit by any governmental
taxing authority with respect thereto. The Securities Administrator shall pay
any and all tax related expenses (not including taxes) of each REMIC, including
but not limited to any professional fees or expenses related to audits or any
administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to such REMIC that involve
the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities, but only to the extent
that (i) such expenses are ordinary or routine expenses, including expenses
of a
routine audit but not expenses of litigation (except as described in (ii));
or
(ii) such expenses or liabilities (including taxes and penalties) are
attributable to the negligence or willful misconduct of the Securities
Administrator in fulfilling its duties hereunder (including its duties as tax
return preparer). The Securities Administrator shall be entitled to
reimbursement of expenses to the extent provided in clause (i) above from the
Certificate Account, provided, however, the Securities Administrator shall
not
be entitled to reimbursement for expenses incurred in connection with the
preparation of tax returns and other reports as required by Section 6.20 and
this Section.
171
(d) The
Securities Administrator shall prepare, the Trustee shall sign and the
Securities Administrator shall file, all of each REMIC’s federal and appropriate
state tax and information returns as such REMIC’s direct representative. The
expenses of preparing and filing such returns shall be borne by the Securities
Administrator.
(e) The
Securities Administrator or its designee shall perform on behalf of each REMIC
all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the responsibility of
such REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions, or other compliance guidance
issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local taxing authority.
Among its other duties, if required by the Code, the REMIC Provisions, or other
such guidance, the Securities Administrator shall provide (i) to the Treasury
or
other governmental authority such information as is necessary for the
application of any tax relating to the transfer of a Residual Certificate to
any
disqualified person or organization pursuant to Treasury Regulation
1.860E-2(a)(5) and any person designated in Section 860E(e)(3) of the Code
and
(ii) to the Trustee such information as is necessary for the Trustee to provide
to the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the
Code or REMIC Provisions.
The
Securities Administrator shall be entitled to receive reasonable compensation
from the Trust for the performance of its duties under this subsection (e);
provided,
however,
that
such compensation shall not exceed $5,000 per year.
(f) The
Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Holders
of
Certificates shall take any action or cause any REMIC to take any action
necessary to create or maintain the status of any REMIC as a REMIC under the
REMIC Provisions and shall assist each other as necessary to create or maintain
such status. Neither the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master
Servicer nor the Holder of any Residual Certificate shall knowingly take any
action, cause any 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 result in an Adverse REMIC Event unless the Trustee,
the
Securities Administrator, any NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer have received
an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee (at the expense of the party
seeking to take such action) to the effect that the contemplated action will
not
result in an Adverse REMIC Event. In addition, prior to taking any action with
respect to any REMIC or the assets therein, or causing any REMIC to take any
action, which is not expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement,
any
Holder of a Residual Certificate will consult with the Trustee, the Securities
Administrator, the Master Servicer, any NIMS Insurer or their respective
designees, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an
Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to any REMIC, and no such Person
shall
take any such action or cause any REMIC to take any such action as to which
the
Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer or any NIMS Insurer
has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur.
172
(g) Each
Holder of a Residual Certificate shall pay when due any and all taxes imposed
on
the related REMIC by federal or state governmental authorities. To the extent
that such taxes are not paid by a Residual Certificateholder, the Trustee shall
pay any remaining REMIC taxes out of current or future amounts otherwise
distributable to the Holder of the Residual Certificate in any such REMIC or,
if
no such amounts are available, out of other amounts held in the Certificate
Account, and shall reduce amounts otherwise payable to holders of regular
interests in any such REMIC, as the case may be.
(h) The
Securities Administrator shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books
and records with respect to each REMIC on a calendar year and on an accrual
basis.
(i) No
additional contributions of assets shall be made to any REMIC, except as
expressly provided in this Agreement.
(j) Neither
the Securities Administrator nor the Master Servicer shall enter into any
arrangement by which any REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for
services.
(k) On
or
before October 15 of each calendar year beginning in 2006, the Securities
Administrator shall deliver to the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer an Officer’s
Certificate stating, without regard to any actions taken by any party other
than
the Securities Administrator, the Securities Administrator’s compliance with
provisions of this Section 10.01.
(l) The
Securities Administrator shall treat each of the Basis Risk Reserve Fund and
the
Supplemental Interest Trust as an outside reserve fund within the meaning of
Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h) that is owned by the Holders of the
Class X Certificates and that is not an asset of any REMIC and all amounts
deposited into the Basis Risk Reserve Fund or the Supplemental Interest Trust
shall be treated as amounts distributed to the Class X Certificateholders.
(m) For
federal income tax purposes, upon any sale of the property held by the Trust
Fund pursuant to Section 7.01(b), any NIM Redemption Amount paid by the Master
Servicer shall not be treated as a portion of the purchase price paid for such
property but shall instead be treated as an amount paid by the Master Servicer
to the Holder of the Class X Certificates in exchange for an interest in the
Class X Certificates immediately before the purchase of the property held by
the
Trust Fund.
(n) The
Securities Administrator shall treat the beneficial owners of Certificates
(other than the Class P, Class X, Class LT-R and Class R Certificates) as having
entered into a notional principal contract with respect to the beneficial owners
of the Class X Certificates. Pursuant to each such notional principal contract,
all beneficial owners of LIBOR Certificates shall be treated as having agreed
to
pay, on each Distribution Date, to the beneficial owners of the Class X
Certificates an aggregate amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount
payable on such Distribution Date on the interest in the Upper Tier REMIC
corresponding to such Class of Certificates over (ii) the amount payable on
such
Class of Certificates on such Distribution Date (such excess, a “Class I
Shortfall”). A Class I Shortfall payable from interest collections shall be
allocated to each Class of Certificates to the extent that interest accrued
on
such Class for the related Accrual Period at the Certificate Interest Rate
for a
Class, computed by substituting “REMIC 3 Net Funds Cap” for the applicable “Net
Funds Cap” in the definition thereof, exceeds the amount of interest accrued for
the related Accrual Period based on the applicable Net Funds Cap, and a Class
I
Shortfall payable from principal collections shall be allocated to the most
subordinate Class of Certificates with an outstanding principal balance to
the
extent of such balance. In addition, pursuant to such notional principal
contract, the beneficial owner of the Class X Certificates shall be treated
as
having agreed to pay Basis Risk Shortfalls and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfalls
to
the Owners of the LIBOR Certificates in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. Any payments to the Certificates in light of the foregoing shall
not
be payments with respect to a “regular interest” in a REMIC within the meaning
of Code Section 860G(a)(1). However, any payment from the Certificates of a
Class I Shortfall shall be treated for tax purposes as having been received
by
the beneficial owners of such Certificates in respect of their Interests in
the
Upper Tier REMIC and as having been paid by such beneficial owners to the
Supplemental Interest Trust pursuant to the notional principal contract. Thus,
each Certificate (other than a Class P, Class R and Class LT-R Certificates)
shall be treated as representing not only ownership of regular interests in
the
Upper Tier REMIC, but also ownership of an interest in (and obligations with
respect to) a notional principal contract. For tax purposes, the notional
principal contract shall be deemed to have a value in favor of the Certificates
entitled to receive Basis Risk Shortfalls and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfalls
of
$58,882.98 as of the Closing Date.
173
(o) Notwithstanding
the priority and sources of payments set forth in Article V hereof or otherwise,
the Securities Administrator shall account for all distributions on the
Certificates as set forth in this Section 10.01. In no event shall any payments
of Basis Risk Shortfalls or Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfalls provided for in this
Section 10.01 be treated as payments with respect to a “regular interest” in a
REMIC within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(1).

Section

Prohibited
Transactions and Activities.
|
Neither
the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall sell, dispose of,
or
substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans, except in a disposition pursuant
to
(i) the foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, (ii) the bankruptcy of the Trust Fund,
(iii) the termination of each REMIC pursuant to Article VII of this Agreement,
(iv) a substitution pursuant to Article II of this Agreement or (v) a repurchase
of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II of this Agreement, nor acquire any
assets for any REMIC, nor sell or dispose of any investments in the Certificate
Account for gain, nor accept any contributions to any REMIC after the Closing
Date, unless the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer has received an Opinion of Counsel
addressed to the Trustee (at the expense of the party causing such sale,
disposition, or substitution) that such disposition, acquisition, substitution,
or acceptance will not (a) result in an Adverse REMIC Event, (b) affect the
distribution of interest or principal on the Certificates or (c) result in
the
encumbrance of the assets transferred or assigned to the Trust Fund (except
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement).
174

Section
10.03.
|
Indemnification
with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of REMIC
Status.
|
Upon
the
occurrence of an Adverse REMIC Event due to the negligent performance by the
Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, of its duties and
obligations set forth herein, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator,
as
applicable, shall indemnify any NIMS Insurer, the Holder of the related Residual
Certificate or the Trust Fund, as applicable, against any and all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (“Losses”) resulting solely from such
negligence; provided,
however,
that
neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable for any
such Losses attributable to the action or inaction of the Master Servicer,
the
Depositor, the Class X Certificateholders, the Holder of such Residual
Certificate or the Securities Administrator (with regard to the Trustee), as
applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from misinformation provided
by
the Holder of such Residual Certificate on which the Securities Administrator
has relied. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights
and remedies of the Holder of such Residual Certificate now or hereafter
existing at law or in equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no
event shall the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, have
any
liability (1) for any action or omission that is taken in accordance with and
in
compliance with the express terms of, or which is expressly permitted by the
terms of, this Agreement or any Servicing Agreement, (2) for any Losses other
than arising out of a negligent performance by the Trustee or the Securities
Administrator, as applicable, of its duties and obligations set forth herein,
and (3) for any special or consequential damages to Certificateholders (in
addition to payment of principal and interest on the Certificates); provided,
however,
that
this sentence shall not apply in connection with any failure by the Securities
Administrator to comply with the provisions of Subsections 6.01(l) hereof and
Subsections 9.25(a) or (b) hereof. In addition, neither the Trustee nor the
Securities Administrator shall have any liability for the actions or failure
to
act of the other.
|
Section
10.04.
|
REO
Property.
|
(a) Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the Master Servicer, acting on behalf
of
the Trustee hereunder, shall not, except to the extent provided in the
applicable Servicing Agreement, knowingly permit any Servicer to, rent, lease,
or otherwise earn income on behalf of any REMIC with respect to any REO Property
which might cause an Adverse REMIC Event unless the Master Servicer has advised,
or has caused the applicable Servicer to advise, the Trustee and any NIMS
Insurer in writing to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions, such action
would not result in an Adverse REMIC Event.
(b) The
Master Servicer shall cause the applicable Servicer (to the extent provided
in
its Servicing Agreement) to make reasonable efforts to sell any REO Property
for
its fair market value. In any event, however, the Master Servicer shall, or
shall cause the applicable Servicer (to the extent provided in its Servicing
Agreement) to, dispose of any REO Property within three years of its acquisition
by the Trust Fund unless the Master Servicer has received a grant of extension
from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that, under the REMIC
Provisions, the REMIC may hold REO Property for a longer period without causing
an Adverse REMIC Event. If the Master Servicer has received such an extension,
then the Trustee, or the Master Servicer, acting on its behalf hereunder, shall,
or shall cause the applicable Servicer to, continue to attempt to sell the
REO
Property for its fair market value for such period longer than three years
as
such extension permits (the “Extended Period”). If the Trustee has not received
such an extension and the Master Servicer or the applicable Servicer, acting
on
behalf of the Trustee hereunder, is unable to sell the REO Property within
33
months after its acquisition by the Trust Fund or if the Master Servicer has
received such an extension, and the Master Servicer or the applicable Servicer
is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before
the close of the Extended Period, the Master Servicer shall cause the applicable
Servicer, before the end of the three year period or the Extended Period, as
applicable, to (i) purchase such REO Property at a price equal to the REO
Property’s fair market value or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest
bidder (which may be the applicable Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed
to produce a fair price prior to the expiration of the three-year period or
the
Extended Period, as the case may be.

Interest) of each Class of Certificates affected thereby for the purpose of
adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the

Holders; provided, however, that no such amendment shall be made unless the
Trustee and any NIMS Insurer receives an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the
Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, at the expense of the party requesting the change,
that such change will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event; and provided further,
that no such amendment may (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay
the
timing of, payments received on Mortgage Loans which are required to be
distributed on any Certificate, without the consent of the Holder of such
Certificate or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentages of Class Principal Amount
(or Percentage Interest) of Certificates of each Class, the Holders of which
are
required to consent to any such amendment without the consent of the Holders
of
100% of the Class Principal Amount (or Percentage Interest) of each Class of
Certificates affected thereby. For purposes of this paragraph, references to
“Holder” or “Holders” shall be deemed to include, in the case of any Class of
Book-Entry Certificates, the related Certificate Owners.
(c) After
a
Section 7.01(c) Purchase Event but on or prior to a Trust Fund Termination
Event, this Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the
Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the LTURI-holder and the Trustee,
but without the consent of the Credit Risk Manager, the Cap Counterparty or
the
Swap Counterparty (except to the extent that the rights or obligations of (1)
the Credit Risk Manager, the Cap Counterparty or the Swap Counterparty hereunder
or (2) the Cap Counterparty or the Swap Counterparty under the Interest Rate
Cap
Agreement or the Swap Agreement, respectively, or the ability of the Trustee
on
behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust and the Trust Fund to perform fully
and timely its obligations under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement or the Swap
Agreement, as applicable, is adversely affected, in which case prior written
consent of the Credit Risk Manager, the Cap Counterparty or the Swap
Counterparty, as applicable, is required). Prior to entering into any amendment
without the consent of Holders pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee and
the
Swap Counterparty shall be provided with an Opinion of Counsel addressed to
the
Trustee, any NIMS Insurer and the Swap Counterparty (at the expense of the
party
requesting such amendment) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under
this Section and will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event.
177
(d) Promptly
after the execution of any such amendment, the Trustee shall furnish written
notification of the substance of such amendment to each Holder, the Depositor,
the Swap Counterparty, any NIMS Insurer and to the Rating Agencies.
(e) It
shall
not be necessary for the consent of Holders under this Section 11.03 to approve
the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if
such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such
consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Holders
shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may
prescribe.
(f) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in any Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall not
consent to any amendment of any Servicing Agreement unless (i) such amendment

of
any payments or other recoveries received by the prior Servicer, and to notify
the successor servicer of the source and proper application of each such payment
or recovery; and (F) the Seller shall cause the prior Servicer to, after the
effective date of transfer of servicing to the successor servicer, continue
to
cooperate with the successor servicer to facilitate such transfer in such manner
and to such extent as the successor servicer may reasonably request.

reasonable investigation at the time of the transfer and found that the
Transferee had historically paid its debts as they came due and found no
significant evidence to indicate that the Transferee will not continue to pay
its debts as they become due.
Very
truly yours,

Dear
Sirs:
In

Structured Asset Securities Corporation Mortgage Loan Trust Mortgage

Certificates (the “Privately Offered Certificates”) of the Structured Asset
Securities Corporation (the “Depositor”), we confirm that:
|
(1)
|
We
understand that the Privately Offered Certificates have not been,
and will
not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”), and may not be sold except as permitted in the
following sentence. We agree, on our own behalf and on behalf of
any
accounts for which we are acting as hereinafter stated, that if we
should
sell any Privately Offered Certificates within two years of the later
of
the date of original issuance of the Privately Offered Certificates
or the
last day on which such Privately Offered Certificates are owned by
the
Depositor or any affiliate of the Depositor (which includes the Placement
Agent) we will do so only (A) to the Depositor, (B) to “qualified
institutional buyers” (within the meaning of Rule 144A under the
Securities Act) in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities
Act
(“QIBs”), (C) pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule
144 under the Securities Act, or (D) to an institutional “accredited
investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of
Regulation D under the Securities Act that is not a QIB (an “Institutional

and we
further agree, in the capacities stated above, to provide to any
person
purchasing any of the Privately Offered Certificates from us a notice
advising such purchaser that resales of the Privately Offered Certificates
are restricted as stated herein.
|
|
(2)
|
We
understand that, in connection with any proposed resale of any Privately
Offered Certificates to an Institutional Accredited Investor, we
will be
required to furnish to the Securities Administrator and the Depositor
a
certification from such transferee in the form hereof to confirm
that the
proposed sale is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in
a
transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the
Securities Act. We further understand that the Privately Offered
Certificates purchased by us will bear a legend to the foregoing
effect.
|
G-1
|
(3)
|
We
are acquiring the Privately Offered Certificates for investment purposes
and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with,
any
distribution in violation of the Securities Act. We have such knowledge
and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable
of
evaluating the merits and risks of our investment in the Privately
Offered
Certificates, and we and any account for which we are acting are
each able
to bear the economic risk of such
investment.
|
|
(4)
|
We
are an Institutional Accredited Investor and we are acquiring the
Privately Offered Certificates purchased by us for our own account
or for
one or more accounts (each of which is an Institutional Accredited
Investor) as to each of which we exercise sole investment
discretion.

|
(5)
|
We
have received such information as we deem necessary in order to make
our
investment decision.
|
|
(6)

If
we are acquiring ERISA-Restricted Certificates, we understand that
in
accordance with ERISA, the Code and the Exemption, no Plan and no
person
acting on behalf of such a Plan may acquire such Certificate except
